Pankaja_Dasa Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 is it okay to be individual instead of listening to gurus and things? I think better be individual. Guru is all merciful, he will help u no matter what, alternative is go cray following Guru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AncientMariner Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 I don't know but that is a good question in my opinion. I personally don't see how a person could be happy with no sense of individuality and I have always viewed sprituality as actually enhancing that individuality in some sense. I know when studying Krishna Consciousness there does seem to be some aspects of it that try to create people into a Borg like collective but I have never viewed that aspect of it as being the true essence of Prabhupada. Take George Harrison for example, apparently Prabhupada viewed him as more than a disciple so I am guessing Prabhupada didn't demand that George Harrison shave his head and join the collective at all costs.

Pankaja_Dasa Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 yeah i think i agre with ancient mariner, guru take good side only, like Prabhupada.

gHari Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Guru is in the heart. Yoga means surrendering unto to Him. You will be with Him when you are unattached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
