And, is such a thing possible--In kali-yug?" --- It is said that the total number of persons getting siddhi in kaliyug is more than the total number of people in remaining 3 yugas taken togather! This statement is from Skand-Puran. Regarding your remarks about Meerabai,you will agree that she had no intention of giving bad treatment to her husband.She always respected her husband. She consumed poision sent by her husband in the name of God's charanamrit. You know the result. Vish + Ram = Vishram! Jai Shree Ram. You can find many similar stories in scriptures where this equation was fully satsfied. When mana is not involved it is called Nishkam-Karm.This does not bind anyone.This is why She was free from all sins. On physical level her husband gave enough hardship to her to compensate her neglect. So again there was no carry forward of karma for her. Most Bhaktas have not dischaged their duties towards family and suffered heavily by wordly problems.This was just the way to burn out all past and present karmas so that they can get Moksh. (Look at your personal problems in this prospective and you will get a great relief.) If you apply your statement to lord Shri Ram or Shri Krishn who killed millions of Asuras,what will be their future?They will be killed millions of times by those Asuras!But it is not true.They do Nishkam-Karm. Shrimad Bhagvat gives a story in support of it. Once Gopikas wanted to give food to sage Durvas who was sitting on the other bank of river Yamuna.Since Yamuna was flooding,they asked for help with Srikrishn.HE said tell Yamuna that if Krishn is Brahmachary, give us way.(You know about Ras-Leela of shrikrishn) Gopikas said that and got way.Durvasa was pleased to eat lot of food given by them. Gopikas then asked for help for going back.Sage said tell Yamuna that if Durvasa is Alp-Bhojee(less food eater),give us way.(He had consumed lots of food just now) They repeated and came back. When they asked Krishn about the contradiction in their behavior and statement,Krishn said "what you said was correct but what you saw/experienced was wrong!This is the reason that on hearing truth,Yamuna gave you way.When I do Ras-Leela,I am not having any desires.Similarly Sage Durvasa do not have any desire for food.He said that he is Alp-Bhojee because he eats the ego/Ahamkar of people". Regarding Leela of God,I give you another story. Once Brahma kidnapped all cows and Gops of Sri Krishn thinking him as ordinary boy.Krishn created exactly similar ones and no one knew any difference.Brahma realised his mistakes and asked Him to forgive. This shows that even the creator Brahma can not understand His Leela so Brahma's creation,we and all others can not understand it in any way. That is why sages say: Bachcha! Bhagwan Ki Leela ko janna asambhav hai!! Thanks Anilkumar OM TAT SAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
