Guest guest Posted August 18, 2002 Report Share Posted August 18, 2002 Sectarianism in Spiritual Life ------- Thakura Bhaktivinoda in Krsna Samhita 8.22: Sloka and Purport are by him: sampradaya-virodho 'yam davanalo vicintyate The eleventh obstacle for the Vaisnavas is sectarianism, which takes the shape of the forest fire. Due to sectarianism a person cannot accept anyone outside of his own group as a Vaisnava, and as a result he faces many obstacles in finding a guru and associating with sincere devotees. Therefore extinguishing the forest fire is most important by giving up this mentality. ---------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
