Q: What is our common vision? A: KC population

[Guest guest]

Dear Krsna Kirti Prabhu,

please accept my respectful obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada and all other Vaisnavas!

All glories to Sri Sri Gaura-Nitai and Sri Sri Radha-Krsna!

But You've probably missed the argument standing behind my words, or

I have done it not clear enough. Perhaps the latter, sorry.

What I wanted to tell is that it was wrong to say by Krsna Dharma

Prabhu "they are unlikely to be answered in the forseeable future", because

the answers are already given by Srila Prabhupada. The problem that not all

of us can properly understand them is another issue, and I didn't want to

start discussing it at all, since many person take such discussions too

personally and fall into anger or similar when they hear something different

from what they think, so that there is rather more and more distance between

devotees than union of theirs. And this is a sad truth.

I am sorry that I became a cause of Your criticism. And I didn't

want to look like a living spiritual encyclopedia and to teach everyone

here; devotees who know me personally know that well. Sorry for this

'hurly-burly' once again.

 

Your most unworthy servant,

Sergei.

Hare Krsna.
