As Srila Prabhupada himself said, in > the West, most just don't understand these things... And few want to even > try to learn. The narrated incident was indeed most interesting. The *main* point that Prabhupada stressed (as I see it) was the lack of faith in the protection of *guru and Krsna*. Now, if I am not mistaken, you are known as someone who is making proposals to several gurukuli underaged girls to marry them all. You are already married, but you are insisting to practice polygamy. Are these correct? And the reasons why you would do it, the explanation given is that you want to give the chance to those girls to get a husband and protection, since otherwise they might stay unmarried (or married to an unqualified man), and thus unprotected. So the point here is, what happen to the faith in guru and Krsna? That was the main point that Prabhupada made. So you, Ameyatma prabhu, you seam to not trust that guru and Krsna would take care of those girls, you do not trust that they would be protected by Him (or even eventually get a husband that they got not to share with many co-wives). Two different approaches seam to be in practice by you: 1. When a young girl stays husband-less and childless and wishes to get a husband and children, then the response is: "It is just fine to stay unmarried, Guru and Krsna gives you all protection". Guru and Krsna. 2. When you yourself (who is already aging) are interested to marry more young girls (the virginity is their qualification for their "salvation"), then your approach is, "You might eventually stay unmarried, then none will protect you, so you all marry me now and quickly provide the right protection for yourself". Guru and Krsna are out of picture here. > But those of us who do want to learn, who do have some > understanding, we cannot give up.

But why one got to be a polygamist looking for the young gurukuli girls in order to prove to the world his "faith in Krsna"?? - mnd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
