Haridham 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2003 There was a story in Toronto or Englad I think that there was this Rolling Sadhu who rolled down the street for peace. It was quite interesting as after a few rolls he would rest with his followers...who were women...wow rolling, wearing orange cloth, and having a long beard can attract women....wow. If this caught on who knows what guys in the west would do. No need for deoderant or cologne eh. ahahhahaha. Anyways after he rolled he would smoke a bidi. Beautiful isnt it. Roll for peace, smoke for peace. I should eat for peace, get fat for peace. Make some money and become a rich millionare just for peace. ....hey, give me that orange cloth. Have any of you heard this story. Pleas reply. Hare Krsna Hari Dham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I_love_krishna_ 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2003 People don't realize that rolling does not do anything. If he is truly a sadhu, then he should try to lift people's conscience by glorifying all the good aspects of the society. If he rolls only and does everything that is bad, then what is the point?! Just like krishna says : karmendriyani samyamya ya aste manasa smaran indriyarthan vimudhatma mithyacarah sa ucyate One who restrains the senses of action but whose mind dwells on sense objects certainly deludes himself and is called a pretender.

Priitaa 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2003 LOL LOL Sorry, but that's just funny, because its so stupid. ha Whatever makes a 'sadhu' think rolling down filthy dirty streets is going to make any changes toward peace in the world is beyond me. Just a concotion, that's all. Get him a "Slip and Slide" instead - its faster. /images/graemlins/smile.gif Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Priitaa 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2003 I should add, when one accepts austerities, they can bring about some degree of world changes, but those austerities must be based in shastra. Never read a word about rolling in shastra. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
