Guest guest Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Hare Krishna, It is very sad to see that, some brahmins are deviating from vedic faith. Bhagavan Krishna says in Gita, chaper 4, sloka 34 : tad viddhi pranipatena / pariprasnena sevaya upadeksyanti te jnanam / jnaninas tattva-darsinah Acquire this jnana by offering prostrated obeisances to a guru who imparts transcendental knowledge, by asking him relevant questions and by rendering service to him. The jnanis, who are expert in the imports of sastra, and the tattva-darsis, who have realized the Absolute Reality, will enlighten you with that jnana.
