Srimad Bhagavatam 1.3.6 - 1.3.8

7 years, 7 months ago by Boisekids in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

Hare Krishna Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Following is the summary of 1.3.6-1.3.8 as discussed on Sunday.

V6:

This example suggests that one must first acquire the qualifications of a brahmaṇa, not simply by birth but also by quality, and then one can undergo the process of Brahman realization.

V7:

The incarnation of the boar was to take the earth out of Pluto’s region of filthy matter. Picking up something from a filthy place is done by a boar, and the all-powerful Personality of Godhead displayed this wonder to the asuras, who had hidden the earth in such a filthy place.

V8:

The great Ṛṣi Narada, who is an empowered incarnation of the Personality of Godhead, propagates devotional service all over the universe. 

Your servant,

Sundari Radhika dd.

HpS - ASA --- Thank you.   Are there daily classes on these verses still???   Guess they stopped while ARD was traveling?   Tonight is the BhVai workshop.   He was also making the point that book knowledge is not sufficient to be a Brahman. That would be a Pandita as the way we heard. SB 3.29.31-32 are very nice in describing these relations.

This is our means of conquest. Please lead us!
