Guest guest Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 I always thought that Krishna was a seperate entity that WORKED though Vishnu; that He was all things combined into one, but it seems to me that both the teachings of A.C Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada and fanatical Vishnu followers have made it a point to degrade Shiva to a title of some sort of lesser God. I disagree with the whole concept of denoting a percentile to each god and shelving them into categories, because the bhagavad gita, and at least the combined knowledge of the other texts, would teach you that there is a difference in mythology as opposed to the spiritual context of the hindu religion. The puranas are not on the same level as the bhagavad gita. All the gods are part of one entity - the supreme godhead. It seems as though the battles between Vishnu followers and Shiva followers still rages on. What for? A bunch of convoluted facts? Why do people try to change things constantly? it's all there in one big fat book called. the B.Gita... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 I always thought that Krishna was a seperate entity that WORKED though Vishnu; ..demonstrate it fanatical Vishnu followers have made it a point to degrade Shiva to a title of some sort of lesser God. ..demonstrate it The puranas are not on the same level as the bhagavad gita ..demonstrate it and demonstrate that the message is different All the gods are part of one entity - the supreme godhead ..right... and who's for you the supreme godhead? Why do people try to change things constantly? ..so do not change the things but stick on sanatana dharma and the gita it's all there in one big fat book called. the B.Gita... ..book that says that the ultimate enlightment and highest spiritual realization is to surrender fully to krsna "sarva dharma ..." etc. so where's the problem?
