>>This week’s Srila Siddhaswarupananda television program is a continuation of the Q&A on Christianity series<< who wanted this dialogue and what is the purpose? what the parties are trying to prove or get out of it? jai sri krishna!

>>If there was ever a time you forgot you were God, ..<< - theist. gyan yogis or advaitis think they are god and jagat is mithya. the vaishnavas think that there is bhagavan (god the person) and they are the bhaktas. their sadhana is bhakti which krishna has said is best in gita of all otehr sadhanas. bhakti is not opssible ulness bhagavan is separate from bhakta. vaishnvs say jagat is not mithya, but is temporary. i think you know this. any way we all are vedic people, santana dharmis, and the need is to watch and check the asuras in india. jai sri krishna!

i do not know. i think it is difficult to know, just like no one knows who is the author of: jaya jagasisha hare swami jayajagasidha hare.. aarti. jai sri krishna!

dear guest, i welcome you here (although i have no rights here. no regret about it.) please assume a username. it does not take away any of your privacy. it become easy to talk here. without it there can be a number of people posting at the same time, and each is "Guest". that does not help. i would be glad to talk about swaminarayan. jai sri sahajanand!

>>According to point 5, Islamic suicide bombers are justified in killing Israelis. That is illogical. << If you ask jews if they occulied israle illegally, they would say no. the land was of jews' oroginally some 2000 years ago, and the jews were thrown out for that long. the issue is: manmade laws can contradict each other. e.g.: india is the land of the hindus. islam invade in there since 1000 years. now those who are born there in muslim families say it is their birth place, their land. what is the solution: A: aggresive perdatory religions should not be allowed on Hindu land (India). another solution is given in isopanishad: isAvAsya idam sarvam yatkicha jagatyAm jagtat tena tyaktena bhunjithA mA gridha kasya svid dhanam the difficuly is, all the people need to accept this way of living, else it cannot help. jai sri krishna!

sumit bhai, no need to be sorry for it. it is a lot easier when a specific username is used. jai sri krishna!

this is tough question. i have seen on tv a heart reloved from bady, but still throbbing in the palms of surgeion. other thing: when an earth worm is cut in two pieces, both live normally. did one soul became twho soul? or, did another soul entered one peace? god always keeps some mystery. man cannot figure everything. Jai sri krishna!

dear jaimal singh ji, The web sites are very good! dhanyawad! i am interested to know (just curiosity) how kakaji's swaminarayan sect differ from pramukh swami's sect. jai sri krishna!

If any one knows a link to full Harivamsa, please share. I am interested in sanskrit verses as well as translation. jai Sri Krishna!

>>Venkatadri Samam Sthanam Brahmande Nasti Kinchana Venkatesa Samo Devo Na Bhuto Na Bhavishyathi. << For those who do not know, here is the translation: There never is a (holy) place like vekantdri in the universe. There is no god like venkatesha, there never was , never will be. Jai Sri Krishna!

I did not notice "new topic" button till now. That font looks like devanagari, and when i look the font, knowing devanagri, my mind tries to read devanagari and cannot read english. To tell the truth, that font looks good, but to me it is really hard to read. Does any one have that experience? Thanks any way, theist prabhu. Jai Sri Krishna!

dear livingentity sister, in ref to this, i am sure you know this: Gita 1.36 PURPORT (by Prabhupada) According to Vedic injunctions there are six kinds of aggressors: 1) a poison giver, 2) one who sets fire to the house, 3) one who attacks with deadly weapons, 4) one who plunders riches, 5) one who occupies another’s land, and 6) one who kidnaps a wife. Such aggressors are at once to be killed, and no sin is incurred by killing such aggressors. Such killing of aggressors is quite befitting any ordinary man,... ----------- The islamist terrorists do all these adharma. Jai Sri Krishna!

>>It just goes to show you how scared asuras are of Lord Krishna. He invokes complete terror in them << Those who burn krishna books/gita in modern times are not scrared of krishna but they simply do not know that krishna is god, and they have their ego that their religion only is true and anything else is devils'w work and must be destroyed. they do not have an open mind like the hindus who will ready any religion's Book to know what it has, but xians and islamists do not do it. they are prohibited by their book, are closed mind. Jai Sri Krishna!

see my previous post for more sites. jai Sri Krishna!

ok sister, now i understand. here is one site that may help: http://www.dvaita.org/overview.shtml http://madhva.tripod.com/week.html The following introduces all sampradayas, advaita and dwaitas. http://www.hinduism.org.za/schools.htm#The%20Visishtadvaita%20Philosophy%20Of%20Sri%20Ramanuja http://members.tripod.com/~sriramanujar/ http://www.ramanuja.org/intro.html Following page narates aacharyas lives and their phylosophies briefly. http://www.sivanandadlshq.org/saints/saints.htm http://www.geocities.com/profvk/gohitvip/71.html http://www.madhva.net/madhvacharya/ http://www.gosai.com/dvaita/madhvacarya/ let me know if these help. there are more. Jai Sri Krishna!

this reminds me what happened to our house in mumbai a few deades ago. my mother hired a help (shudra lady) to do some house work. the lady entered the house, and as soon as she saw the altar, she ran out of the house. so my mother went behind her and asked her why she was running away. she said, "no bai, i will never come in your house. you have that moorti there." apparently she was the worshiper of the dead. Jai Sri Krishna!

Sri sampradaya started by sri ramanujacharya is pure dvaita vada. gaudiya madhva sampradaya is vishishhthadvaita vada. these differences address what is the highest ulimate truth. so i say that who ever has not reached any closer to such high level in bhakti, need not worry about it. pick one you like for bhakti and progress. all the five vaishnav sampradays that came after shankaracharya's advita vada are dvaita with slight differences. there are web pages for each for detailed info. Jai Sri Krishna!

i still do not know how to make a new thread yet. could you please tell me it. Jai Sri Kishna!

>>.. when he said that India will suffer the most. << - atma Gandhi divided India and avoided a civil war threatned by the muslims minority. since then India has been sufering from the islamists within and without. now there does not seem any solution other than war, sooner or later. The suffering that it will cause now will be more than the suffering the civil war could have caused in 1947. (so gandhi's effort was a failure. he failed to understand islam nature.) But after the war, if it happens, there will not be pakistan. it did exist just before 1947. no big deal. there will not be islam and xianity in india either. most of these groups will happily give up their faiths and accept hinduism, incontrast to the hindu ancestors of the current muslims who accepted islam when their neck was under the sword of muslim barbarians. Jai Sri Krishna!

Babhru das, you indicated: >>I remember hearing that Srila Prabhupada said he would take the dust from the feet of those who preach in Muslim countries on his head.<< I am interested to know if any book or web site gives this information. Let me know. I would keep your word as ref. till a written reference is found. Jai Sri Krishna!
