Guest guest Posted October 11, 2001 Report Share Posted October 11, 2001 p.204, 203 Sri Namamrta (Prabhupad ; various quotes from Teachings of Lord Chaitanya, BG, SB) "Even if a low caste person is engaged in chanting the transcendental vibration, it is to be understood that he has performed all types of renunciation, austerities & sacrifices & has studied the Bhrama-sutras." "One who chants the the two syllables Ha-ri must be considered to have studied all the Vedas" " O my Lord! Persons who chant the holy names of Your Lordship are far, far advanced in spiritual life, even if born in families of dogeaters. Such chanters have undoubtedly performed all kinds of austerities & sacrifices, bathed in all teh sacred places, and finished all scriptural studies." "He must have passed through all teh ritualistic methods of the Vedas, known as sabda-brahma. Unless therefore, one is purified, one cannot take to the principle of KC, nor become engaged in chanting the holy name of the Lord, Hare Krsna." Of course any of us can fall in Kali Yuga, but not one chanting round is wasted or lost & gives spiritual progress, even if not Delivered this incarnation! The word "elevated" is relative-not relative dualistic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
