Guest guest Posted May 3, 2001 Report Share Posted May 3, 2001 Hare Krsna dear vaisnavas please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet, all glories to our Guru Maharaja and our Srila Prabhupada. That is stated in the sastra. Tirthi-kurvanti tirthani svantah-sthena gadabhrta. Because a pure devotee carries Krsna within his heart, therefore wherever he goes he makes a holy place. It is said in the sastra. So not me, but every one of you, if you are pure devotee of Krsna, then wherever you'll go, that is a holy place. Tirthi-kurvanti tirthani svantah... To become sannyasi means that, that he'll be pure devotee, and wherever he will go, he will purify. That is sannyasa means. Mahad-vicalam nrnam grhinam dina-cetasam. Mahatmas, they'll travel so that the householders, who are cripple-minded and full of sinful activities, they'll go there and make them purified. This is the idea of sannyasa. And in the Vedic civilization a brahmacari and a sannyasi has open door. There is no restriction. H.D.G. A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. ys. vd.
