  1. Local Street-Beggars Union? Recyclers see ViSNu or kRSNa everywhere. B more specific.
  2. Should/could/would these b considered unalienable bhakta rights: 1) right to honor prasAdam 2) right to attend all classes, istagosthis, meetings 3) right to question & answer period after every class, no escuses 4) right to perform HarinAm sankIrtan with group 5) right to occasionally lead kIrtan 6) right to dental/medical coverage 7) right to heat & hot water?
  3. raktaM nIlaM tathA pItaM, harita-zveta nirmalaH | sannipAtaH vijAnIyAn, maraNAya ca dehinAm ||116|| In sannipAta (all 3 doSas aggravated concurrently), if nail colour becomes red, blue, yellow, green, white, dirt-free, then patient succumbs to death.
  4. Which date is proper for North Amerika to celebrate NityAnanda-trayodasi this year?
  5. 1.4.3.Tad adhInatvAd arthavat - - - its, his; from dependence; sense of sub-serving purpose 111) PradhAna is capable, not independently as Sankhyas hold, due to backing from Brahman, Supreme Cause. SwAmI PrabhupAd stated: “When we speak of Nature we must ask the question, ‘Whose Nature?’ Nature is not acting alone.” ======== 1.4.4 jneyatvAvacanAc ca - - - being known; avacanAt = from non-mention, omitted; too 112) Nothing in this KaThopaniSad passage claims avyakta to be knowledge’s object, ergo, avyakta does NOT mean Sankhya’s pradhAna.
  6. suxman tu tad-arhatvAt ||1|4|2|| subtle, permanent atoms, causal body; but, that its; arthatvAt - capability 110) But by word body, subtle body is meant. Term avyakta - unmanifest is capable of being applied to it.
  7. God Bless the King & Queen! Did u c how Tony Blair has been once again saved by the Lord? Lord Hutton, that is.
  8. pItaM raktaM yadA dRSTvA, nakhAnAM ca nirIxaNam | zleSma-pittaM sthitis tatra, kathayanti munI-zvarAH 115) Nail colour becomes yellow or red by kapha-pitta aggravation.
  9. AnumAnikam apy ekeSAm iti cen, na, zarIra rUpaka vinyasta-gRhIter darzayati ca ||1|4|1|| what rests on reference, pradhAna; also, of some (kAThAka-sUtras); thus if not; body simile contained; from reference; shows too 109) If it b said that KaTha UpaniSad mentions pradhAna, disagree. Avyakta appears in passage containing 'body' simile & ergo avyakta means "body;" text shows this too. ENTITY ==> ==> ===> SIMILE zarIra - body ====> chariot buddhi - reason ==> charioteer mAnasa - impulse ==> reins arthas - objects ==> roads indriyas - senses => horses
  10. nakhAz ca nIla-varNAmAH, pIta raktAs tathaiva ca | vAta-pitta parIxA ca, kathitA muni-pungavaiH ||113|| nIlAbhaM ca yadA kRSNaM, pIta-varNa ca dRzyate | vAta-pitta vikAreSu, kathayanti yadA budhAH ||114|| If both vAyu & pitta r simultaneously aggravated, then nails become bluish-yellow or bluish-red. Bluish-black or bluish-yellow colour in nails is caused by vAyu + pitta aggravation, so say great sages.
  11. Gita Press may still b printing original Ayur-veda Sanskrt texts at Gorakhpur.
  12. Just see! Our Myra makes more sense in one post than all our treasury secretaries since Alexander Hamilton put together. If anyone in Wash DC today was even slightly qualified, Myra would immediately b hired into upper level federal economic management. But alas! As connotation increases, denotation decreases. ========== Blair accepted BBC's unconditional apology; so what? Was that the point? What about the soldiers & civilians dead & wounded in Iraq due to Blair & Bush both being misinformed & misinforming us? Chalk it up to our collective vikarma-viphalam? If so, we may as well back one tyrant after another. All important expedience. ========== Decorated Vietnam War Officer John Kerry asked Tricky Dick Nixon in Wash DC 1971: "How do u tell someone to keep on fighting so he can b the last US soldier to die in an unjust war?" ======== Big Israeli-Palestinian prisoner exchange coinciding with yet another suicide bomber destroying citybus. At any point during Kaliyuga, solutions remain the same: Butchered animal meat can never b Kosher nor Halal, so all Jews & Muslims must become vegetarian. Jesus, Prince of Peace, was strict lacto-vegetarian. Buddha never ate meat & declared nonviolence the supreme dharma. Pro-Peace Conclusion: Close all Slaughterhouses, Chant God's Holy Names
  13. as Jesus Christ Our Saviour was, allows full disclosure of Jeb's, Cheney's, Jackson Steven's, Mossad's 9/11 ties, when he publicly denounces slaughterhouses, wholeheartedly admits we didn't have to attack Afghanistan or Iraq, he'll have my vote, not b4. In one sense I don't blame B; he's small time. If he ever came clean, if he ever began to sing he'd b removed from office so fast... or put to sleep in his sleep. I believe Amerika can lead this planet into at least a semi-rekindled Vedik age if & only if we/they r willing. It has to begin with increased chanting + organic food + + pure air+ pure water + decreased slaughterhousing. Krishna is showing them with Madcow & Birdflu = Avionflu, no? Personally, so far condemning ugra-karma, I wish Krishna would put lotus pedal to the metal, but He works & plays at His own speed.
  14. Well, what could b more obvious? Lord Hutton's inquiry finds Tony Blair innocent of inflating Iraq's weaponry stats. "Saddam Hussein has hundreds & thousands of Weapons of Mass Destruction." Kay's documented testimony proves exactly the opposite. BBC Chairman Gavin Davis has resigned. Meanwhile, did David Kelly? really commit suicide? He was found in the woods Summer 2003. Or was he conveniently bumped off? Is Lord Hutton's report on the up and up? 12th Canto describes Kaliyuga exactly in this way: "If u speak truth, u'll disturb the status quo, make them angry. If u tell lies, u'll fit right in; u'll b rewarded." Neo-conservative thinktank spokesman Nile Gardner only towed the party line, totally unable to speak an honest sentence. What a disgrace. Politician's tarnished images r more important to save than thousands of humans slaughtered in Iraq & elsewhere, all dying untimely.
  15. 1) a grhastha who only approaches his wife/releases for procreation, lit. "only moves for brahma" 2) a brahmacari who lives at home, not in ashram. ========== Srila Bhaktipramoda Puri Mhrj's mother wanted him to marry. He was ready to receive sannyAs from Srila Sarasvati ThAkur, but his mother forbid him to do so so long she remained alive. His guru disappeared 1Jan1937. His mother left shortly after. BP Puri Mhrj did accept sannyAs after his mother disappeared. Srila Swami PrabhupAd preferred a different wife, but his father convinced him to marry the girl he did NOT want to be with. Y? So renunciation would b easier later on. Srila Saraswati ThAkur admitted: "I am not meant for household life, yet I am prepared to conceive/produce 100 children if I am guaranteed they will all b Krishna Conscious." 5 of 12 mahAjans were/r brahmacari. 8 of 15 mahAjans were/r brahmacari. When BrahmAji's first sons, the 4 KUmaras refused to marry, BrahmAji became angry, thus giving birth to Rudra emanating from between his eyebrows. What a birth!! In Vedik life there's always 3 choices: sattvik, rajasik, tamasik Iow, yes, wait, no => positive, confused, negative When something is unclear, wait. Meanwhile, pray while u wait. Pray to Providence for a clear solution to this temporary impasse.
  16. Myra's just listing facts. Some r uncomfortable with facts. They prefer false promise, ongoing illusion, polluted water, polluted air, shoot first/ask questions later, hit the dog & win a puppy, cover up madcow, cover up birdflu, cover up 9/11, always have a fall guy ready, shift attention elsewhere, upward licking/downward kicking... karmanA daiva-netreNa... Y such get human birth? Your guess is as good as mine. God's idea of a joke? Laugh Laugh - Beau Brummels "U found u don't know everything there is to know"
  17. Otherwise, if Time is Money and ViSNu is Time, then Money is ViSNu, in which case we can always purchase an extra muhUrta under the table, no?
  18. suSupty utkrAnty orbhedena ||1|3|42|| dreamless, deep sleep; departing at deathtime; in deep sleep & departing; by differentiation 106) Text designates Supreme Self as different from jIva, whether it be in deep sleep state or departing time = death. ====== paty Adi-zabdebhyaH Lord, Protector; the rest; due to words like pati Mukta-jIva not identical with Brahman, because of words like Lord, etc. applied to Him in that passage.
  19. Well chosen, oh unknown, pipsqueek guest. "Let the Nazis Be!" "Let the Neo-cons be!" Precisely present-day incumbent's support.
  20. Jesus said his burden was light; he wasn't kidding. Our burden is heavy in Kaliyuga because these bodies r grosser than in previous yugas. PUtanA's body length; Vraja-mandala expanding at night; Ugrasena's 5 billion body guards, floating rocks, flying rakshasas, dragon breath. There's an essay explaining this; it was available at Vrnda Book Store across from RAdhA-DAmodar Mandir, VRndAvan.
  21. 3 Februaries ago, and they found I was very dehydrated. Like dry fruit. They intravenused me. When serum emptied I went home. Soak your dry fruit. More soups. More soupy sales too. Life is serious, but then again we either stuck or blessed with eternality. Don't bite off more than u can chew. But do chew. Don't bolt your food like that North Carolina Swami. Do u use a water filter? Let it flow.
  22. With a Brenda Lee chaser! (Lonely, Only the Lonely, All Alone Am I, respectively) Narottam dAs ThAkur calls out to NityAnanda Prabhu: kRpA valokana koro Ami boDo duHkhI... Bhaktivinod ThAkur feels alone: ekAkI AmAra nAhi pAya bol, harinAma-sankIrtane... Do u live alone? U r not alone. We r all lonely. I use non-commercial talk radio. Any near your home? I occasionally call in with pertinent Vedik info. Internet excellent, ideal to keep busy comunicating with devotees.
  23. Al Kaline? Really great baseball player. Al Cohol? Never met him. I do know that C2H6O can b taken by devotees for medicinal purposes. Useful as preservative. During cooking it evaporates anyway.
  24. ParIxaNaM nakhAnAM hi, vaxyehaM brahmaNoditam | PAdAtau vivarair yuktaM, sarva-jnAya bhiSag varaiH ||109|| tato parIxaNaM teSAM, dhAtu doSa kRtas tathA | suvarNasya yathA rekhA, tathA rekhA nakhasya cet ||110|| Nail Exam (which reminds me of Jesus joke… not here) Now, as BrahmAji told, toe etc. nail exam shall b described. They’re observed with view to ascertain morbidity in dhAtus & doSas, and line presence as those over gold piece. ========= VAta pitta kaphaM dvandvaM, caturtha sAnnipAtikam | Nakha-madhye tathA jnAtvA, sarva-zAstriSu saMmatam ||111|| One should ascertain vAyu, pitta, kapha aggravation & simultaneous vitiation of 2 or all 3 doSas by nail test according to methods prescribed in all medical texts. ========== NIla-varNAH bhaved vAyuH, rakta-varNAH sa penttikaH | PIta-varNAH bhavet-chleSmaH, zveta-varNAH samizrakaH ||112|| By vAyu aggravation nails turn blue. by pitta red or yellow, by kapha white. When 2 doSas r disturbed, features of both manifest in nails.
  25. From 1994-2000 our TuSTa KRSNa SwAmI used his cellphone daily, after which he developed brain tumor & soon after passed away. He joined ISKCON in 1970, received sannyAs from ZrIla PrabhupAd, preached extensively in Hawaii & New Zealand, began & moderated www.vina.org ... According to www.pacifica.org, cellphone distribution is a perilous experiment on populations worldwide. Yet another Kaliyuga answer to overpopulation?
