Guest guest Report post Posted January 3, 2005 In Hari-bhakti-vilasa (9.42-44), this appears from a conversation between Pulastya Muni and Bhagiratha Maharaja, in Padma Purana: "One who drinks caranamrita (water emanated from washing the body of the Lord) he becomes free from all kinds of diseases, and all kinds of obstacles and the fear of ferocious cobras and ferocious beasts. He does not have the eyes of bad planets upon him. He becomes free from the fear of theft. What is the need for him to go to the places of pilgrimage, seeing the demigods and great sages (if he has taken the water which has washed the body of the Supreme Lord)? If he has the water which has washed the Salagram Sila above his head, the sun, Kesava, Lord Brahma, Sankara (Lord Siva) become greatly happy with him."

mark 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2005 Haribol Many thanks for the dates. One more little question please - I have read that Sril Prabhupada said that the foods that may be eaten on Ekadasi are 'Fruit, Roots, Nuts and Milk' - does milk include milk products such as yogurt and cheese? humble obeisances, Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted September 6, 2005 Kalai, best way is to download the Vaishnava Calendar linked above. In that you enter your exact location (longitude, latitude) and it gives you specific dates for your location. Haribol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
