A SAINT

 

God dwells in those who have no lust, anger, pride, arrogance,

delusion, greed, hatred and deceit. A sage realises his unity, his

spiritual oneness with others. He sees their suffering and out of

compassion, devotion and love, he stays on the earth plane - to serve

and to suffer for all creatures - until they become purified and

attain illumination.

 

He is a saint who has conquered the senses, who is endowed with

righteous conduct, who speaks sweet words even to those who are

crooked by nature, and whose heart is always softened by tender

feelings for others. He is a saint who has shaken off all

attachments, who is never swayed by lust, greed or anger, who is

constantly established in righteousness, who is wise, humble, modest

and forgiving.

 

A saint is compassionate - he is free from violence, greed, hypocrisy

and duplicity. He regards earthly riches as poison. A saint is

forbearing. He has a generous heart and possesses great fortitude and

discrimination. A saint is free from egoism and selfishness - he is

liberated.

 

A saint is the one to be worshipped. He is a paramahamsa. He has

shaken off everything. Each saint proclaims the same truth but his

teachings are adapted to suit the requirements of his time and area

of influence.

 

He who looks upon everything with an equal eye, who is perfectly calm

and serene, who does not covet anything, and who is the friend of all

he is a real saint.

 

Sri Vasishta tells Rama: " An acarya's (preceptor's) grace, if it

becomes en rapport with his disciple, will of itself, in a mysterious

manner, enable the disciple to perceive directly the Brahmic

principle within, though it is impossible for the guru to point to

Brahman as `this' or `that', or for the disciple to understand how it

is, prior to his direct perception. Each should cognise it within

himself, through his own jnana (intuition) and with the aid of the

acarya (preceptor) and an understanding of the true significance of

the many scriptures. It is indeed very rare to attain that state

without the help of a guru and spiritual book. Should all three

combine - that is, an acarya, jnana sastra (scripture dealing with

self knowledge) and a true disciple, then it is certain that the seat

beyond all bondage will be attained. "

Dear Sir,

To develop the qualities of Saintliness you first have to surrender to a Great

Vaishnava Spiritual Master like Srila Prabhupada. You have to give up the bad

habits of meat eating, intoxication, illicit sex & gambling.

The most important point is that you have to chant the holy names of GOD (Hare

Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare/ Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama

Hare Hare) at least 4 rounds on your chanting beads.

Slowly by this spiritual practice you yourself will develop the qualities of a

Saint in yourself.

I'm sending you a book called " A second Chance " by Srila Prabhupada for your

evaluation-Kindly check attachment.

Hare Krishna

Pranjal Johry
