Tarun Posted September 30, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 This is a code book. BhAgavatam is its explanation. zabdAd eva pramitaH 1|3|24 from word, only, measured (by thumb), limited 88) Limited thumb-size person described in KathopaniSad is Brahman, due to word or epithet applied to it in that very same text. He is none other than Lord ViSNu. Why? He's referred to as Lord of past & future, unlike jIva who's past & future r both bound by karma-phalam. Then y call Him limited? Thumb-size?

And both zruti & smRti establish same vAda = siddhAnta = conclusion. Our Predecessor VedAntAcarya SrIla Baladev VidyAbhUSan has deep substantial explanations & solutions for all our Atheist, Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, Muslim brothers & sisters... if they'll care to hear. Example: If higher Bible teachings command Don't Kill, Don't kill animals (Genesis 26, 29; Isaiah 66 etc), Don't eat meat, while lower less austere Bible teachings allow for killing of certain creature, which should we choose? The high road or the low road? The road to moxa & prema = liberation & devotion? Or the road to asat-sanga & saMsAra = entanglement & metempsychosis?

Tarun Posted January 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 saMskAra parAmarzAt tad abhAvAbhilApAc ca sacraments; from scriptural reference - sacred thread preliminary for VedAnta study; that ceremony; abhAva = absence; abhilApAt = from declaration; too 100) Scripture assume purificatory rituals preparatory to Brahma-jnAna; w.r.t. zUdra there is declaration such sacraments r unavailable. So far, this 100th is by far our most contraversial sUtra. At once, Karna & so many others come to mind. Zruti states sacred thread should b received by: 1) brahmaNa at age 8 2) xatriya at age 11 3) vaizya at age 12 Working class keep out. Don't inform Karl Marx or your local union about this one.

Tarun Posted January 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 Amazing: right now, as we type, every single line he speaks is false, bar none. Still, the blind repeatedly stand & applaud. Total waste of time & money. Simply astonishing! Morons gathered backpatting. What a scene! VedAnta allows us to clearly see how Lord Siva has them all steeped under His good wife's 8-armed spells: tad abhAva nirdhAraNe ca pravRtteH ||1.3.37|| that (sudrahood); absence, negation; in ascertainment; and due to taking steps, procedure 101) Gautam first checked that JAbAl was not sUdra, then proceeded to invest him with sacred thread. What a conjunction: Flip Wilson's "The Devil Made Me Wear that Dress" on www.wbai.org, Union State Speech spouting Satan's Brew line after lyin', up against eternally elevating non-sectarian codes. A laugher, a cryer & a purifier. What a dif! A few good speech points - he says he wants to eliminate steroids in sports, promote abstinence/celibacy, preserve hetero-marriage's sanctity, improve prisoner reentry assistance. Swami PrabhupAd mentioned this Gautam-JAbAl history. JAbAl requested Gautam, "Please sir, teach me." Gautam replied, "what is your gotra?" JAbAl: "I do not know." Gautam recognized: "None not a brahman has courage to say so." Such frankness morally outweighed his birthcaste, unlike prsent-day policy.
