When spirituality becomes envious and atheistic…

by December 15, 2012

In the Vedic system, prasada is distributed, as recommended here, without discrimination as to who may take the prasada. Regardless of whether one be a brahmana, sudra, vaisya, ksatriya, or even the lowest of men, a candala, he should be welcome to accept prasada. However, when the candalas, the lower class or poorer class, are taking prasada, this does not mean that they have become Narayana or Visnu. Narayana is situated in everyone’s heart, but this does not mean Narayana is a candala or poor man. The Mayavada philosophy of accepting a poor man as Narayana is the most envious and atheistic movement in Vedic culture. This mentality should be completely given up. Everyone should be given the opportunity to take prasada, but this does not mean that everyone has the right to become Narayana.

    Hari Bol ,

    Jai Prabhupada ,

    Srila Prabhupada You got courage to speak , against the
    ‘greatest people in name of Sprituality’ , who say’s ” Daridra Narayan ”
    and ” Nar Seva ,Narayan Seva ” . You have taught the real message ,
    without Interpretation’s .

    All Glories To You for making us understand the distinction’s between
    ” Nar and Narayan ”

    As Sripad Ramanujacharya defeated the philosphy

    ” Koi Kehta Nahi Brahm Hai ( There Is No God ) ,
    Koi Kehta Hum Hi Brahm Hai ( Everyone Is God ) ”

    and preached the message of
    ” Jaao Hari Ki Sharan Main , Wahi Sab Ki Sharan Hai ”
    ( Go and take the refuge of Lord Vishnu , He is the Refuge of every living entity )

    Similarily , Srila Prabhupada you saved the world from Impersonalism and Zeroism
    and told us to take shelter of ” Sri Sri Radha Shyam Sunder ”

    All Glories To You Forever ..
