Guest guest Report post Posted October 5, 2003 because he waste a thing that is not of his property.. his human body we are spiritual souls and the bodies are given by god to use them for devotional service... if we do destroy our body we have to take birth in a kind of life where we will not be disturbed by a phisical body..... the GHOST - even if we are in a krsna lila and the results is prema, not hell, it is very exemplar the case of the sannyasi condamned by chaitanya mahaprabhu for havin looked at a woman... he appears to chaitanya mahaprabhu in a ghost form (if any other devotee wants to tell the story with more precision i will be very glad) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted October 6, 2003 Where was the idea originated or is there any factual evidence which tells that we would actually take another birth if we die not in God's presence? Why this faith is soo opposite to the Christians beliefs that we only have this life once and we MUST live it to the fullest according to the Bible/scriptures. Why do you believe this? Also, why is it that Hinduism is only exclusive to India? I can see Bible in every Store, why there is a limited Mahabharata or Vedas? Thanks.

Kulapavana 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2003 if you believe that God only gives you one chance to come to Him you believe that God is a stingy and cruel person, who punishes you with eternal hell for not loving Him... what kind of a stupid idea is that? God is very loving, just and patient and He certainly does NOT punish people for not turning to Him. The idea of "one life only" was introduced to strike fear of God in the hearts of primitive people so that they would live moral life. You should study Bhagavad Gita to grasp the true nature of God... Hare Krishna! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I_love_krishna_ 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2003 You don't go to hell if you commit suicide, but you will pay a very horrible price in this karma wheel. Why?- because you are destroying the body that was given to you out of mercy from which you can do sadhana and go to the Godhead. When you lose your chance, you have lost everything my friend. So, don't lose your chance! Krishna : yajnarthat karmano 'nyatra loko 'yam karma-bandhanah tad-artham karma kaunteya mukta-sangah samacara Work done as a sacrifice for Visnu has to be performed, otherwise work causes bondage in this material world. Therefore, O son of Kunti, perform your prescribed duties for His satisfaction, and in that way you will always remain free from bondage. So, the level of bondage depends on the action and the way its committed. Therefore, it is better for us to act in pure bliss of Krishna rather than go kill our bodies and get into all that other mess /images/graemlins/smile.gif Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kulapavana 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2003 my post was in reply to the "inquisitive mind" guest questions and jabs. as to the suicide/ghost issue: yes, suiciders receive a certain ghostly body as a punishment for their sin. it is a ghostly body that still craves food, drink and touch. tormented by these desires of the flesh they wonder the earthly realm in futile search for fullfilment... not all ghosts are like that.
