Guest guest Posted May 27, 1999 Report Share Posted May 27, 1999 Dear Bhaktarupa Prabhu, Namonamaha. Jaya Srila Prabhupada! The following message of your's was received by me: > Here is the promised pramana: > > From Prameya Ratnavali 8.6 by Srila Baladeva Vidyabhusan Prabhu: <snip> Yes, all this information is most interesting and informative. If Baladev has commented in this way, then we must accept it as so. Then the Hare Krishna Maha-mantra & the guru's chanting on our beads would then come under the "mantra" samskara & I stand corrected. As for the rest of your proposition regarding 1st & 2nd initiation being separate & that both of the initiations contain all 5 samskaras, well, that's a new one for me. I don't see how it fits here at all. But it can be taken as a subject for research. Thank you for the information. "Live & learn" should be our motto. At least I for one am willing to be a student until my last breath. dasanudas, Basu Ghosh Das Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
