Tirisilex 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2009 Kama and Krishna cant be the same as people have said.. Because Kama loves to distract Holy men by shooting them with lust arrows.. That doesnt fit with Krishna.. I dont see him distracting us from Dharma with arrows. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sambya 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2009 i think there is a small mistake there . kama that distracts us and kama of krishna are not the same terms . kama associated with us is the result of sense gratification . kama associated with krishna is the highest form of love , the perfectional stage of wordly love . kama towrds krishna as exhibited by the gopis results from the perfectional stage of madhura rasa -- the parakiya . and this madhura bhava in the culimination of all other precceding rasas like santa , dasya etc . by this we can understand the position of this kama . it is the condensed form of ideal love and not love as seen in material world . material kama results out from false identification with the body and desire to satisfy the senses .
