Guest guest Posted October 12, 2001 Report Share Posted October 12, 2001 Hi Denis, thank you very much for the DOB of Harikesh. I met him in France in 1976 and i know some of his ex devotees. I will not post anything about him cos it is not relevant to do it in a public place and because as a vedic astrologer i will keep confidentiallity. Nevertheless, it is a good chart for my collection cos i knew him and his role among devotees. The fall of a guru is a very sad affair. As astrologer i have seen the fall of 2 gurus and the damage done to their disciples. What to do? Any devotee will be a devotee tomorrow and yes, it is Krishna's affair. He knows how to deal with them. The best thing is to wish our best wishes to them and follow our sadhana. To get involved with a mad person is dangerous, we are not capacited for that. Everything happens for a reason and only Krishna has the answers. Our tiny brains do not understand but He knows. Whatever happens to us we should not forget the Lord. I know of a devotee that did not get what he was looking for and because of that he went away from the Lord. Is that devotion? or a materialistic interchange? He said to me. Why i got this? after working for Him for many years? That kind of faith i have encountered in many religions. It is sad to lose faith. When i lose the path or i see that the path is lost, i look for another one hoping that it is the right one. I know that whatever happens to me is due to my unseen karma. If my finger is cut, I give thanks to the Lord that it was not my head cut. Somehow, by the mercy of the Lord and his servants, we obtain benedictions and avoid or minimize great calamities. Best wishes Natabara My guru said that even 24 hours sanyassa is worshipable. Every devotee does their best and to achieve that level it merits our respect, but we should not allow their fall to ruin our path. We are conscripts trying our best and we should search for that person that can give us Krishna. Any "fallen" guru has done a lot for Prabhupada and Lord Chaitanya and that is never forgotten but all that is on the realm of Krishna.
