Govindaram 1 Report post Posted February 10, 2004 Srimad Bhagavatam 1.7.48 TRANSLATION If the kingly administrative order, being unrestricted in sense control, offends the brahmana order and enrages them, then the fire of that rage burns up the whole body of the royal family and brings grief upon all. PURPORT The brahmana order of society, or the spiritually advanced caste or community, and the members of such highly elevated families, were always held in great esteem by the other, subordinate castes, namely the administrative kingly order, the mercantile order and the laborers. --- The above verse to me is very interesting, that if you are unrestricted in sence enjoyment, then you are bound to offend devotees of Krishna. Haribol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
