krsna 3 Report post Posted June 22, 2005 Dear friends of AskTheSwami.org, 2 new Questions and Answers from Swami B.A. Paramadvaiti are online on AskTheSwami.org: 1) Question: Our life is determined by our Karma, right? Does this Karma also affect devotional service? 1) Answer: Service is life. To suffer is Karma. Our life is an enduring journey, so all the time we will encounter nectar and disasters. Also in our spiritual family we can see and feel that. It is part of our life, part of our Karma. Only spiritual service is not Karma. It is an intervention of mercy in our lives. Karma of devotional service does not exist. Devotional service is the free decision of the soul to make for the Absolute. ... continued online!! 2) Question: In material ecology every living thing lives off every other living thing. The spiritual world is shown through the example of relationships in this world, but all these beings eat other's bodies. Is it that bodies are eatable in the spiritual world, thus death exists, but being attached to God's will it is OK? 2) Answer: Once Srila Prabhupada was asked whether there were mosquitos in the spiritual world. He answered: If there are any they do not bite, they sing. /images/graemlins/smile.gif ... continued online!! Do not hesitate to visit the page to read more and ask your questions. Of course we would like to invite you to share the service of this page with your friends and relatives. Thank you, govardhan das Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
