Guest guest Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 "There are two kinds of Bhagavatam: the living Bhagavatam is the devotee, and the representation Bhagavatam is the Bhagavat-grantha. There is no difference. Absolute means there is no difference. Krsna is absolute; therefore either this grantha Bhagavatam or the devotee Bhagavatam, or Krsna - they're all one. That is absolute conception. Advaya-jnana. We should not distinguish a devotee from Bhagavan. We shall not distinguish Bhagavatam from Bhagavan." (SP Lecture, 730112SB.BOM) > My Godbrother Sarvabhavana Prabhu told me that he asked Srila Prabhupada > why the person Bhagavat is considered more important than the book > Bhagavat. Srila Prabhupada replied, "Because he can pull your ear." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
