Guest guest Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 Sankaracarya: bhaja govindam bhaja govindam bhaja govindam mudha-mate samprapte sannihite kale na hi na hi raksati dukrn-karane bhaja-just worship; govindam-Govinda; mudha-mate-O fool; samprapte-attained; sannihite-placed; kale-when the time; na-not; hi-indeed; raksati-protects; dukrn-karane-the grammatical affix dukrn. TRANSLATION You fools and rascals, all your grammatical word jugglery of suffixes, prefixes and philosophical speculation will not save you at the time of death. Just worship Govinda! Worship Govinda! Worship Govinda! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 I think every one of the great Acharya's of Vedanta - Shankaracharya, Ramanujacharya, Madhvacharya, Vallabhacharya recommended their followers to worship Vishu as Krishna, etc. For this reason I have no problem with Krishna as my Ishta-devta. Though I don't hold it against anyone who chooses a different Ishta-devta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
