Guest guest Posted January 9, 2002 Report Share Posted January 9, 2002 =========================== Dear Stavavali108 !!! Well said ... Scripturese you have quoted clearly mention harer nama harer namaharer namaiva kevalamkalau nasty eva nasty evanasty eva gatir anyatha"In this age of quarrel and hipocrasy, the only means of deliverance isthe chanting of the holy names of the Lord. There is no other way. Thereis no other way. There is no other way." Brihan-naradiya Purana 38.126.This is sathyam ...... In Krit yuga >>>Dharma was resting on >>>Dharma was on four pillars In tretha yuga to attain moksha & aspiring regurious penance was performed >>>Dharma was resting on three pillars In Dwaparuga attrocoties Increased >>>Dharma was on three pillars In kaliyuga >>>Dharma is resting only rest on 1 pillar.... Earlier yagnas,yagas <<<ashvemadha etc >>>>,Homams,tapas etc were performed to attain moksha >>>salvation >>> Hence in kaliyuga itseems only recitation of lord name is enough it is also said >>> Astaneshu puraneshu vysasya vachanam dwayam Maharishi Vyasa had written 18 puranas ,A learned scholar went to him & said maharishi it is very difficult to read 18 purans written by you & understand & entire life is not enough ....pls guide me ,Then maharishi vyasya son of Maha Rishi Parashara says " The essence of 18 puranas is only two words ......"

For people very, very rich, specialy in the western countries,is very dificult to make spiritual life. For people very poor, it isvery dificult too. If a chart shows moksha, is very probable that thejiva has made a lot of austerities in his past life, and not with thedesire of enjoy, but with the desire to be liberated. And the best ofthem is not the one who wants moksha, but one whom only desire is toserve to the Lord.>4. If all births are for the bad karmas of the previous life, what>about the birth of the very first set of human beings on earth? Who>were they paying for? I wonder...If you know a woman who you know is a very good person, and a very goodmother. You come out from your house, and you see this woman punish herson. What you may thing? First, this woman is a very bad person, how shecan punish her son? Or you may think, that maybe her son makes somethingwrong, and is the duty of the mother correct his bad actions. So, everybad thing you see in this world, you may think, what have we done tohave such a punishment? But is the punishment of our creator. Maybe ason may think that the punishment of his parents is very cruel, but itisn't. When you grow up, you starts to understand and thanks all thework they try to do to educate you. So it is time for our spiritual growup, and understand that we are eternal living beings.Please, read Bhagavad Gita. Sanjay recommends Srila Prabhupada'stranslation. Back to the first paragraph, Srila Prabhupada explains thatas the only person who knows who is your father, is your mother. So, ifyou are wondering who is your trascendental father, you have to ask toyour mother. And the Vedas, are the mother. So read. And after read, youwill understand the conclusions of the scriptures:harer nama harer namaharer namaiva kevalamkalau nasty eva nasty evanasty eva gatir anyatha"In this age of quarrel and hipocrasy, the only means of deliverance isthe chanting of the holy names of the Lord. There is no other way. Thereis no other way. There is no other way." Brihan-naradiya Purana 38.126.So, chant:hare krishna hare krishnakrishna krishna hare harehare rama hare ramarama rama hare hareand be happy.At your feet:Arjuna-vallabha das.dear arjuna-vallabha prabhu please accept my obeisances. all glories to srila prabhupadathe past few days i have been feeling very low, then i just read your e mail on 'moksa doubts'..it went straight to the heart and i feel much better..thankyou for thatyour servantstavavali devi dasi Archives: vedic astrologyGroup info: vedic astrology/info.htmlTo UNSUBSCRIBE: Blank mail to vedic astrology-.......
