yasodanandana Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 the body of vaishnavas is spiritual because is entirely devoted to the service of sri krsna bhagavan, it is not proper to say that a vaishnava is a soul covered in a gross and subtle body... he's all spirit, all pure spirit even if we wrongly see a body made of ordinary flesh and blood so whatever activities this person is doing (also his "death" is an activity, lila, performed exclusively for teach us krsna consciousness), we worship and glorify him in the same way we worship and glorify god and a considerable part of archana, the act of worshiping god, devatas and saints, is to offer them flowers and flower garlands we went in this world because of envy, we were envious of the fact that krsna is the isvara and we have to be subordinated... the coming back starts from abandoning our pride and start glorifyin and praising others.. especially vaishnavas every "jaya" to gurudeva, prabhupada, vishnupada, vaishnava thakura, prabhu and so on wipes away millions of anarthas in our heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
