Guest guest Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 Why do you have only two arms? I think that is a more germane question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sudhaya Posted April 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 I am still looking, could you narrow down the search? Did find this.. Srimad-Bhagavatam 2.9.11 Tokyo, April 27, 1972 (excerpt) <font color="red"> Prabhupada: </font color> So...(someone calling in Japanese) It is Japanese language? Why? He wants to see. Hm. So eternal life, yad gatva na nivartante [bg. 15.6]. Eternal life, such nice, always youthful, such nicely dressed, and four hands. Now you are eating with two hands. You will get four hands. (laughter) So you can voraciously eat also if you like, with four hands. How much you can eat, two hands? So these are the facilities. Why don't you try for this? And Krsna assures, mad-yajino 'pi yanti mam. -- /images/graemlins/laugh.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 4 arms He has in order to carry His 4 primary symbols, namely Chakra (disc), Gada (club), Sankha (conch), and Padma (lotus). Very simple. When He wants to carry more and other things (like bow and arrow, kamandalu or whatever) He just expands the number of arms. Lord Visnu is not limited to 4 arms only. He can expand unlimitedly. Otherwise how can He be God of gods? Correct me if I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
