Pankaja_Dasa Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 When Lord Vishnu appeared in the great arena of sacrifice at the time when King Prithu was performing a great sacrifice (asvamedha), He predicted that the Kumaras would very soon come and advise the King. Therefore Prithu Maharaja remembered the causeless mercy of the Lord and thus welcomed the arrival of the Kumaras, who were fulfilling the Lord's prediction. In other words, when the Lord makes a prediction, He fulfills that prediction through some of His devotees. Similarly, Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu predicted that both His glorious names and the Hare Krishna maha-mantra would be broadcast in all the towns and villages of the world. Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada desired to fulfill this great prediction, and we are following in their footsteps. __SB.4.22.42 Purport {extract} www.vedabase.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
