Srila Sukadeva Goswami: How Women Saw Him

[suchandra 1]

Even Srila Vyasadeva wasn't really sure about the spiritual state of his son, Srila Sukadeva Goswami.

 

Yogesvara: But that’s not possible for the mass of people.

Prabhupada: No, why not possible? We have got so many, just like Sukadeva Gosvami. He remained completely brahmacari, although naked he is. He is. He doesn’t require, and neither he is agitated.

 

 

Just like when he was passing, the girls were taking bath. They did not take care. They knew that he is not at all affected by any woman. And when his father was going, they covered. So father inquired, Vyasadeva, a personality like Vyasadeva, said, “Why you covered? I am old man, and my young son he was passing naked.” They said that, “He is paramahamsa. He has no agitation of the mind. But you are grhastha. You live with woman. You have got distinction, man and woman.”
