Guest guest Posted April 20, 2003 Report Share Posted April 20, 2003 > 1.1.16: Who is not willing to hear these glories? Even though 1.1.16 looks like a question, it seemed to me, not one of the 6 questions, asked by the sages in first chapter of SB. Can some one explain this more elaborately, as I do not understand? I had jotted down 6 questions after going through chapter 1 scrutinizingly and the answers in the subsequent chapters. To understand this more clearly, I did not find an answer to 1.1.16 in subsequent chapters. So I considered this not as one of the 6 questions. Can some one please educate me on this more clearly. I will refer my notes and will post what I considered as the 6 questions by the sages. Looks like I might have been wrong, in my understanding. Your humble servant, Bhadra Govinda Dasa.

PAMHO. AGTSP. Forgive me prabhu. I was saying SB 1.1.16 is not a question at all but just a statement by the sages. My understanding is 1.1.16 is not one of the 6 questions by the sages. It is just a statement by the sages, and not a question. nivrtta tarsair upagiyamanad and SB 1.1.16 are giving almost the same message. There are 6 questions by the sages in the first chapter of SB Canto 1. Three questions are answered in the second chapter and three questions are answered in third chapter. And after getting the answers for the 6 questions, the sages pose further questions in the beginning of chapter 4. The 6 questions are in 9, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, and 23 verses, and not in verse 16. My above understanding may be wrong, and I seek correct analysis on the 6 questions in the first chapter of SB. Your humble servant, Bhadra Govinda Dasa.
