Guest guest Posted November 1, 1998 Report Share Posted November 1, 1998 >(H.H. Radhanatha maharaja once joked -- stool of vraja is nothing but >recycled prasadam -- remanents left by vrajavasis!) > Once (in 1983) myself and then Yadunath prabhu (now Radha Charan das TKG) were walking back from hearing a class at the Krishna Balaram mandir by one devotee who was describing how this world is so despicable that the level of enjoyment is similar to that of the hogs and dogs in the street. As we walked and chated we walked down the path that leads to the Goshala where I was living at that time. As we were about to round the round corner suddenly there was this breath taking stench of human stool - and it was not in the best of health either.......! Both of us dry reached, as it took our breath away. Covering our noses we turned the corner to see one olde baba hoisting his dhoti and running off into one of the houses. Within seconds there was this patter of little feet, running as fast as they could, to which two pigs ran right past us and buried their noses eagerly into the remnants deposited there for them. Needless to say, we gained some realisation at that point, and reflected back to that class, on how this devotee mentioned that this must be similar to how the devas view our level of enjoyment in this world, then what to speak of the denizens of the Vaikunthas viewing us (or the devas). Puts a whole new meaning on pigging out!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
