I_love_krishna_ Posted September 17, 2003 Report Posted September 17, 2003 Could you elaborate on the question a little more please? Quote
theist Posted September 18, 2003 Report Posted September 18, 2003 More if we are speaking genuine Krsna-katha, less if are not. Quote
Guest guest Posted September 18, 2003 Report Posted September 18, 2003 By nature I dont speak more, Wanted to know whetehr we have to converse more with people. I sometimes feel that it is useless speaking some non sense with people as its a waste of time. Quote

I_love_krishna_ Posted September 18, 2003 Report Posted September 18, 2003 That depends on the person. I do not think it is something that krishna makes us decrease or increase our speaking abilities, but krishna does say to Narada that he does not want to be in Vaikunta, nor does he want to be where people offer him yagnas and everything. All he wants to do is sit near his devotees who are talking about him. /images/graemlins/smile.gif Quote
srikanth_renu Posted September 19, 2003 Report Posted September 19, 2003 i just keep on watching what Devottes do and how one should take the essence and get inspired from it Quote
gHari Posted September 21, 2003 Report Posted September 21, 2003 It is said that a devotee is silent. Silence means speaking only of Krsna. I have also read that when we have to interact with mundane people we should do so as we would speak sparingly with people at the market as we hand them our money. It is said that a devotee never reveals his mind to a non-devotee. I learned the truth of this one the hard way recently suddenly talking real to sadly fallen people and then being ripped apart. If only I could just accept from the authorities on everything. Anyway, it is written that a devotee does not share his heart with mundane simple people. So let it be done. Quote
