Removal of all the doubts

13 years, 9 months ago by mittalga

My dear Maharaja,

Dandavat pranams. Ram Ram.

Arjuna surrenders to Krsna in the beginning of BG, no?   But then he has so many doubts, but they are sincere doubts, and an Acharya should be able to solve them or pass us to someone who can solve them, no?

Can you see Prabhupada as fixed in that position?

Yes. I can see that as explained below.

What I have found that accepting the basic principles given by Krishna's devotees like Prabhupda, Tulsidas etc has removed all my doubts. Yes. If I accept those principles stated by Prabhupada, then my doubts are solved. Those basic principles are stated below. That is beauty of the teachings of Gita, Prabhupada and other devotees.

Self is beyond matter. It is sat chid ananda and it is part of Krishna. I belong to Krishna and only Krishna is mine. As self is beyond matter, no material object belongs to me. Everyone and everything belongs to Krishna. Krishna is in everyone and everywhere. In this world, I am supposed to use the material objects in service of Krishna i.e. living entities.

Accepting above statements of Prabhupada (and other devotees) has removed all my doubts. So, I can see Prabhupada teachings as means to remove all the doubts.

What is my problems? I don't fully realize those principles. I need to work on realizing them more and more. That is what I am working on. That is what qualifies me to be a "sadhak" - one doing sadhana bhakti.

As my doubts are solved, I don't need to claim Prabhupada, Tulsidas etc as perfect. My life is the example of their perfect teachings. I don't have to prove anything.

sanatana dharma is dharma of the soul. That does not change. There is also dharma related to the body. That changes with time. The teachings of these devotees related to material dharma can be wrong or may not apply. For example, there were not many gays few hundred years ago. Now, the populatoin of gays is increasing. Material dharma related to body will change as people change. But the dharma of the soul will not change. Soul will always remain sat chid anand and part of Krishna among all these changes.
I hope we are in agreement now. Please forgive my offences.
Your servant,
Gaurav  

HpS - Jaya!    AGTSP     We have reached Madrid!    Was normal six hours of travel by car, plane, car from door to door.  We heep chanting the Maha-mantras under the eternal shelter of Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet and rely on Krsna to give us intelligence to organize our effor to find Mother Sita and give Her Rama's Ring (the Nectar of Instruction).
Yes, basically I think we are in agreement. Then do you plan to continue contemplating the advice and meditations of great Saints as part of your effort to realize the presence of Lord everywhere?
