/ #12512011-12-18 00:21"LILAMRTA" SAYS PRABHUPADA SUFFERED "EMOTIONAL TURMOILS" "He sat on the couch while I swept with the vacuum cleaner, and he was so interested in that..." "...came upon a verse in which Lord Krsna said something that startled him... Abhay shuddered as he read the verse. It seemed to speak directly to him. 'But what does it mean? Does it mean,' he thought,' that Krsna will take away all my money? Was that what was actually happening? Was that why his business plans were failing?... (1, p.88) "His spiritual emotions were so turbulent that he wasn't thinking of going to Jhansi. He wanted to take a train to... Anywhere." (1, p. 163) "Abhaya spent his time in Jhargaram chanting the Holy Name and becoming settled in detachment from his family." "...yet without his spiritual master's physical presence, he felt small and very much alone. At times like tills, he questioned the wisdom of having left his family and business." (1, p.222) (In one letter Prabhupada said about his Guru Maharaja: "I have never for a moment left his association because I am following his instructions.") "But to Abhay, Calcutta and the British were not alarming, and he even held a certain fondness for his Scottish teachers. Although he looked up to them with a mixture of awe, distance, and some tension, he admired their moral uprightness and their gentlemanly, courteous behavior with the boys." "Although Prabhupada's home had suddenly become an insane terror, the street at its door was also a hellish, dangerous place. He was shaken." (2, p.95) "America seemed so opulent, yet many things were difficult to tolerate. The sirens and bells from fire engines and police cars seemed like they would crack his heart." (2, p.37) "He had taken quite a shock and now he was leaving the arena of David's madness." (2, p.95) "Abhay was baffled; so much work had been undone. He felt he had worked so many months for nothing." (1, p.135) "But his first attempts to arrange a meeting were unsuccessful. Frustrated at being put off by Mrs. Morarji's officers, he sat down..." (1, p.276) "He had little idea of what to do as he walked off the ship onto the pier. 'I did not know whether to turn left or right.'" (2, p.8) "When Abhay left Bharati Bhavan, with its six-foot-high lettering 'League of Devotees' painted across the outside wall, he felt sad." "But he found the Swami just the opposite-very straightforward and even cutting in his speech and his mouth turned down at the comers, making him look mournful." (2, p.232) "Prabhupada looked grave, almost sorrowful." (2, p.89) "But it was embarrassing for him when he could not pay..." (1, p.186) "...and Abhay and the others felt ashamed." "Bhaktivedanta Swami's neighbors observed him coming home dead tired in the evening." (1, p.283) "The next morning Prabhupada didn't get up. He was exhausted... For the first time, it became apparent that he was overexerting himself." (2, p.259) "He stayed until around 11:00 and then he became drowsy. The party was over." (2, p.269) "After some time, the drive became tiring for Prabhupada, and he dozed, his head resting forward." (2, p.172) "One day, while delivering Back to Godhead to various addresses in the city, Abhay suddenly began reeling, half-unconscious, overcome by the heat." (1, p.194) BUT SASTRA SAYS: "Sometimes a representative of the Lord engaged in preaching work meets various so-called difficulties...although apparently very severe, the devotees of the Lord feel transcendental pleasure because the Lord is satisfied." (SB, 2.8.6) "A pure devotee of the Lord does not live on any planet of the material sky, nor does he feel any contact with the material elements. His so-called material body does not exist, being surcharged with the spiritual current of the Lord's identical interest, and thus he is permanently freed from all contamination of the sum total of the mahat-tattva." (SB, 1.13.55) "People following the principles of devotional service can never be put into difficulty." (SB, 2.8.18) "Those who are devotees therefore have no problems in the material world... For a devotee, everything in this world is very pleasing because he knows how to use everything in the transcendental loving service of the Lord." (SB, 4.8.82) "In the liberated stage, oneness with the Supreme Lord means that one has no realization other than happiness. (SB, 3.28.37) Note: Since this book is primarily for experienced devotees, we are not going to refer to the many hundreds of thousands of quotes that clearly show that pure devotees do not ever manifest the above emotions and turmoils. They may appear to, hey may even say something to that effect, but the fact is that pure devotees are not in touch with matter. If they appear to exhibit such frailties, it is only to win the hearts of the fallen souls around them. After all, few would come forward to offer service to a superman. Such truths should not have to be spoken so openly, but it is necessary to make them clear in order to get his poisonous book, the "Lilamrta," recovered and burned. |

Second chances: transforming incarcerated juveniles' lives
Second chances: transforming incarcerated juveniles' lives This petition aims to give incarcerated juveniles a second chance at redemption. Allowing youths to learn from their mistakes rather than get punished emphasizes rehabilitation and will enable them to succeed in society. Incarcerating juveniles leads to long-term mental health issues, and others do not address the issue of helping juveniles learn from their mistakes. Rather than being incarcerated alternative restorative-based program...
