Guest guest Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Dear Abhi, A Man of God cannot move Mecca. That's the point. Other than that why are you changing the subject? As to authority, who should I believe: Sriman Durga Das Bhatia, the honorable 60 year old Mayor of Amritsar, OR, young little Abhi? In fact I knew Durga Das, but I have never met you. And I have no interest either. Best wishes, Richard sacred-objects , Abhishek Dutta <benarsibabu wrote: > > Dear Sir, > > What a Man of God Cannot Do!!! Even Sri Madhava & Chaitanya have had their fair share of contructive interaction with Turks & Arabs.

What was The Lord doing when this was happening, was it the fault of the kids (surely the law of karma was in play)!!! I am sure Lord was not playing the Flute by the Jumna when this was taking place. Was it not his duty to protect innocent kids who had reposed their faith in him as the Supreme Personality of Godhead!!! > > If you ask me which is the greatest fraud on humanity, it is this statement, " That God alone is ultimately responsible for all that takes place.
