Guest guest Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Om Namah Sivaya, Hara-Krishna sect says that Lord Krishna (body form!!) is the original form of the Supreme Being. They say only Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita are reliable source to understand the nature of God. They say Lord Krishna used the term ‘I am’ the Supreme Lord in Bhagavad Gita but they failed to recognise which ‘I ‘Lord Krishna referring to, they thing it is the body form of the Lord (holding a flute), this is clearly wrong, Lord Krishna preached Arjuna the all pervading I (SIVAM). In an Upanishad Indra Deva said to his disciple ‘I am’ the Supreme Lord, clearly he was not referring to his body form and by tradition when Guru instruct his disciple they always pretend them to be the Supreme Self (or SIVAM). It is utterly a grave-blunder to say Lord Siva as a DEMI-GOD, this view is not even accepted by majority of decent Vaishnavites. Hara-Krishna group prise so much of Srimad Bhagavatam but the purana itself says : Karabhajana Instructs The king Nimi said: “By what name and form and with what rites is the Lord worshipped in the different Yugas? Please tell me of the same.” Karabhajana said: “O king, in the four ages of Satya (Krita), Treta, Dvapara and Kali, Narayana is worshipped in diverse ways as having personalities of different hues, names, forms and orders. “In Satya Yuga the Lord is of white complexion. He has four arms, wears matted locks, bark and deer skin, and the sacred thread and holds RUDRAKSHA, staff and Kamandalu. “In that age men are tranquil in mind, have no feeling of enmity or hatred. All are friends and equals. They propitiate the Lord by their penance, meditation and control of mind and the senses. “In this age the Lord is styled as Swan (Hamsa), Suparna, Vaikunta, Dharma, Yogesvara, Amala (pure), Isvara, Purusha, Avyakta (unmanifest) and Paramatman. “In the Treta age He is blood-red, four armed, has THREE LINES on his forehead and golden locks. The Lord, who is the one purport of the Vedas is an embodiment of the sacrificed. He is worshipped as the Lord of sacrifices. Sruk (chaplet) and Sruva (ladle) are His special marks. “In that age men adore the Lord Hari who is in the form of all the gods with the help of the Vedas. They observe rigidly the course of righteousness, read and expound the Vedas. They propitiate Him by sacrifices, imagining Him in all Devas. In this age, the Lord Hari is styled as Vishnu, Yajna, Prisnigarbha (the son of Prisni), Sarvadeva Uru Krama, Vrishakapi, Jayanta and Urugaya. “In the age of Dvapara the Lord is dark-blue, is clad in yellow silk and is marked with His own weapons and distinguished with special marks such as Srivatsa. O king! In that age, being desirous of realising Para Brahman the mortals worship Him as the great king according to the rules of the Vedas and Tantra. “Salutations unto Thee, the Vasudeva; salutations unto Sankarshana; salutations unto Thee who are the Divine Pradyumna and Aniruddha. Salutations unto Narayana, the Almighty One, the Rishi, the Perfect Purusha, the All-pervading great Atman, the Ruler of the universe, the Perfect One; salutations to the Antaryamin of all beings, the soul of all creatures, the Lord of the universe. In this manner O king! In the Dvapara, the mortals praise the Lord of the universe. “Hear how in Kali they worship Him by various ways laid down in Tantras. The wise sing His glories adore Him who is black, yet brilliant, perfect in every limb, adorned with ornaments, equipped with His weapons and waited on by His attendants. “O most exalted Purusha, O protector of those who bow to Thee, I bow to Thy lotus-feet which are ever worthy of being meditated upon, which remove all difficulties, which yield all that is wished for, which are the abode of all piety, which are eulogised by Siva and Brahma, which are fit to be sought for refuge, which destroy the afflictions of Thy devoted servants and which form the raft in the sea of Samsara. “O most exalted Purusha! I bow to Thy lotus feet. Thou art highly pious, because abandoning at the mere words of Thy father the prosperous kingdom which it is hard to renounce and which is coveted even by the gods, thou didst enter the forest and there didst thou pursue the illusory deer at the request of Thy beloved one. “Thus, O king Nimi! The Lord, the source of all good, is worshipped by his devotees in the different Yugas in the manner appropriate to each Yuga as above mentioned. “The wise who can discern the good in each of the various Yugas hold the Kali Yuga in high reverence, for in this age mortals attain Self-realisation by merely uttering the names of the Lord and by mere singing His glories. ........................

Link: http://www.dlshq.org/download/lordkrishna.htm#_VPID_87 Hara-Krishna sect has fabricated so many FALSE stories like Lord Siva signed a document!!!! saying that He is a slave of Lord Krishna and so many nonsense to hide the truth, these people read a few pages from Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita and thing they know every thing about the Supreme Being, LITTLE LEARNING IS DENGEROUS. Clearly they are not in the spiritual height to realise that Siva and Vishnu(Krishna) are one which the Simad Bhagavatam trying to verify.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 Dear brother, I really understand your anger and guess most of all true devotees of Parameshwara Shiva will do the same. Indeed, in the meantime, I feel sad for those which are caught in this illusion. They will still probably have to experience several rebirths. Maybe it is better to forgive them, because most of the Krishna sects are unknowing and are manipulated. Nobody has to insult Shiva! If anybody does it, he will have to suffer. So if they wish going this way, ok, then it could be a heavy road...without Shivas grace. Blessings to all of you, OM namah Shivay, HAR HAR MAHADEVA! Suryanadi, a tiny star* of Almighty Shiva, the ONLY ONE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2005 Report Share Posted November 21, 2005 Dear Suryanadi ji, What you are saying is so true. I probably shouldn't be saying this but the hare Krishna movement....well lets just say the world would have been better without it. People these days simply have no better thing to do than to impose ones own ideas on others. These people don't undertstand that Siva, that supreme brahman has manifested in so many different forms and any deity that one prays to, either knowingly or unknowingly, is praying to they supreme brahman and it is the compasssion of this supreme brahman that these people don;t have to suffer the wrath of this supreme brahman, but the path tho Siva realization would be easyfor such people. Nobody is free from Sivas maya. Even Brahma once made the mistake of thinking Rudra to be his son just becuase Rudra emerged from Brahma's body. hat to talk about ordinary people who don;t know how to solve problems and mysteries in their own life yet claim to have an answer to Sivas lila, yet at the same time do not recognise Suiva as the supreme brahma....but than again it is all Sivas lila.
