Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Hello All, Given the recent discussions on threats to Hinduism, I have come across this snippet(see below)from Kathamrita(Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna) which I thought might be appropriate for you all to consider. Regards, Harish www.kathamrita.org/kathamrita2/k2sec21.htm ================================== Hindu Ideal – the Sanatana Dharma[304] “The upcountry people of India have such great devotion to God! Have you noticed? They possess the real bhava (spirit) of the Hindus. Indeed theirs is the Sanatana Dharma (eternal religion). Did you notice the immense joy with which they carried the divine image? It was joy at the thought of carrying the throne of Bhagavan on their shoulders. “The Hindu ideal indeed is Sanatana Dharma. All the religions that you see now have come about by God’s will. And by His will they will disappear, they will not last. So I say, ‘Salutations at the feet of even the devotees of today.’ The Hindu ideal has ever been and will last forever.” M. has to return home. He takes the dust of Thakur’s feet and gets down from the carriage near Sobhabazar. Thakur proceeds joyfully in the carriage. ====================================== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
