Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 A couple of weeks ago a friend of mine, Jose, came over to my house and he seemed very sad. When I asked him what is wrong he said that one of his friends was dieing of cancer, and he was on his way to see him in the Hospital. He told me that his friend had a very bad life and was involved in lots of drugs and therefore he was very depressed. According to the scriptures one who lives a life in the mode of ignorance will go down to the hellish planets, so I was thinking what could I do to help this person. I remembered that a very nice devotee, Uttara, had given me a small bottle of water from Radha Kund, Syama Kund, Yamuna and Ganga. So I thought it would be very helpful for his Karma to drink this water. I told Jose the powers of this water and gave him the bottle so that he could take it to his friend and try to give him some before he leaves his body. Jose was not very sure if it would help because he said his friend did not believe in any of that. But I told Jose ¨Just try to put it in his drink and don't tell anyone, it wont hurt.¨ So Jose took the bottle and left. When Jose arrived to the hospital, his friend was shouting and crying in pain, he was angry because he did not want to die, he was very nervous and he refused all the medicine and drinks that they were offering him. So Jose made him a peppermint tea and he put some of the sacred water in the tea. Amazingly enough his friend accepted the tea and drank it very quickly almost burning his mouth. Everyone was amazed because he had refused all the previous hot drinks that they had offered him for the past few days. Then suddenly his friend stopped crying and shouting and he got very relaxed. He even had a smile on his face. Everyone was shocked at the sudden change. They tried to talk to him but he did not speak a word. He refused to talk, eat or drink anymore, he just smiled and laid down peacefully. One hour later he left his body. Haribol! All glories to His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Ys, Soheil. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are d to the Google Groups "ISKCON - Hare Krishna - Nectar of devotion group" group.
