Guest guest Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Dear Bhaktas, I just went for shopping and found some a Herbal hand wash. I immediately bought it. When I was going home i just read it more carefully it says " kills 99.99 % germs which cause disease " Then I was thinking Sri Krishna would not like us killing Germs or anything. I immediately kept it aside deciding not to use it. Then my mind says all the soaps, shampoo, Mouthwash and all kills germs. Are we not doing something wrong when we kill germs. Please bhaktas can throw some light on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Killing those who may cause damage to the society is one's sacred duty. Krishna was involved in the Kurukshetra war and urged Arjuna to kill his own cousins and uncles as a duty to be performed. Germs are causing very serious damage to the society. If you can kill a few of them you will great service to the society. Am I not correct?--- On Mon, 25/5/09, Viks <vikramrajan wrote: Viks <vikramrajan[Guruvayur] Germs Vs Cleanlinessguruvayur Date: Monday, 25 May, 2009, 12:46 PM Dear Bhaktas,I just went for shopping and found some a Herbal hand wash.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Arjuna saw all his kinsmen, sons, brothers-in-law, cousins, teachers (Bhishma, Drona and others) standing arrayed in battle and said to Lord Krishna (26): “My limbs fail and my mouth is parched, my body quivers and my hairs stand on end; Gandiva slips from my hand (29). I do not wish to kill them even for the sake of the Kingship of the three worlds (35). It is a great sin to kill my teachers and relatives. If I kill them, family traditions will perish. There will be lawlessness (40). Women will become corrupt. There will be caste-confusion. The slayer of the families will go to hell for, their ancestors will fall, deprived of rice-balls and oblations (42). Caste-customs and family-customs will vanishâ€(43). Arjuna was overwhelmed with grief. He threw away his bow and arrows and sank down on the seat of the chariot (47). Lord Krishna said to Arjuna: “Wake up from the slumber of ignorance. This body and the world are indwelt by the Imperishable Atman, Brahman or the Soul. None can cause the destruction of That—the Imperishable. This Atman is not born nor does It ever die. It is unborn, eternal, changeless, ancient and inexhaustible. It is not killed when the body is killed (20). It slays not, nor is It slain. Just as a man casts off worn out clothes and puts on new ones, so also the embodied Self casts off worn out bodies and enters others which are new (22). Weapons cut It not, fire burns It not, water wets It not, wind dries It not (23). This Self is unmanifested, unthinkable and unchangeable (24). “O Arjuna! do your duty. It is the duty of a Kshatriya to fight. There is nothing higher for a Kshatriya than a righteous war (31). Develop a balanced mind. Having made pleasure and pain, gain and loss, victory and defeat the same, engage thou in battle, thus thou shalt not incur sin; thou shalt cast off the bonds of action (38)............................. - BHAGAVAD GITA By SRI SWAMI SIVANANDA dil se, Bharath K Think much, speak little, and write less. — Italian proverb If u have doughts in mind start reading bhagavat geetha u will certainally find the solution of all Ur doughts... --- On Mon, 25/5/09, Viks <vikramrajan wrote: Viks <vikramrajan[Guruvayur] Germs Vs Cleanlinessguruvayur Date: Monday, 25 May, 2009, 12:46 PM Dear Bhaktas, I just went for shopping and found some a Herbal hand wash.
