Guest guest Report post Posted May 1, 2004 i think that what he says is "no one will come to the father except thru me." my understanding of that is that he was preaching in a time of many charlatans and false preachers. and he was saying to those around him, in that area, that no one would understand what god the father wanted of them by listening to these false preachers, but should instead, only follow what he was telling them. over thime jesus's followers have used that statement of his to claim that all people of all times in all places, can only get to god the father by following jesus's teachings. theist, ghari or mahak will know where the statement is and explain it better, but i think the whole statement reads something like "i am the way the truth and the light, no one comes to the father except thru me".

But they were more or less like a street-corner gang who'll shoot you for wearing different colors… so many things had to be secret. His universal meaning is… the spiritual master is the medium for reaching God. We have experienced this. We lost Prabhupada. We lost our way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anadi 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2004 How much garantee is there, that these words, as they are now in the bible, are coresponding to the teachings of Jesus Krist? Are there any informations of changings made to the collection of books called bible. The matter of fact this collection is the work of some GBC, 400 years after Jesus Krist. In the famous Council of Nicea they proclaimed that their collection of books is holy and all other exsisting christian books are pagan, and they should be destroyed and cursed (anatema) as well as their followers. And the hunting started, in the name of love. I think the emphasis went more on studying the Mails and Siksa amrita of Paulus, which was wery pleasing for the expansionist and exclusivist policy of the members of the Council. Paul proclaimed the "cheap grace", "Just belive and you will be saved", and propagated that Jesus Krist is the only master and ...

gHari 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2004 Apparently the original language uses verbs that are explicitly very present tense. Bill Clinton: "I am President. No one can press the red button but me." That is a very present tense of the verbs 'am' and 'can'. In fact, even now the statements are no longer valid. Apparently the original language could conjugate unique verb tenses for 'am' and 'can' such that Bill's statements would be more readily understood.
