Default Visoka dd: Joan of Arc story is Bhagavatam - 10-22-2008, 12:25 AM

VISOKA dd: Srila Prabhupada said that the Joan of Arc story is Bhagavatam, because it was about God empowering a person to do extraordinary achievements.
Lord Krishna empowered Joan of Arc to inspire her countrymen to repel the English Crown, who at that time was pillaging and raping France.
So, similarly, we can say that the short book,
Gopal Jui, is also Bhagavatam, because it is all about the pastimes of Krishna in His deity form of Lord Gopal, and how He interacted with the Giri family for 250 years.



It reads just like other transcendental stories we hear or read in the Caitanya-caritamrta and Srimad Bhagavatam.
If a devotee reads it with an attitude of fault-finding, then we are sure that Lord Krishna will fortify his doubt, and he will not get the full benefit of the book. But those who read with an open heart, they will see that this book, like the example of Joan of Arc, is Bhagavatam, just like Caitanya-caritamrta and other Vaisnava literatures.
