I suppose that I am too self-absorbed. Philosophically I rebel against this kind of obsessiveness--what else can be meant by "prema"? This means, of course, that I get isolated. If I don't act like a friend to others, how can I expect them to act as friends to me? <BR/><BR/>And yet, when I am in the company of devotees, I feel a deep and abiding sense of friendship arising from our common love for Krishna. Sadhu Maharaj hugged me several times before I left and said, "I cannot let you go. You must come and join me in Vrindavan."<BR/><BR/>This is also a part of my philosophical understanding. One cannot artificially skip to universal love by wishing it. Some people are more inclined to be sociable or altruistic, it is true. And common interests, especially ones in the mode of goodness, are the fertile soil in which abiding friendships grow.<BR/><BR/>The same night, one devotee, a Prabhupada disciple who is simultaneously curious and yet fairly narrow and restricted in his understanding of Krishna consciousness, came up to me afterwards and said, "I listen to you and I think, <I>biphale janama goainu</I>... I have been around for so long and I know nothing in comparison to you."<BR/><BR/>Hay! Hay! If he only knew how wasted my life has been. How much more that song applies to me, who am bereft of sadhu sanga. Even when Mangal Maharaj and Bodhayana Maharaj came, I left them repeating Narottam Das's lines: <I>vaiSNava-sangete mon, anandita anukkhon, jate hoy krishna-parasanga</I>: "In the association of devotees, my mind is full of constant joy, for we do nothing but talk of Krishna." <BR/><BR/>But I either as a result of my offenses, or as a result of my depraved and self-obsessed mentality, I am deprived of such association. And I have not treated persons like your good self, who have always been so friendly towards me, with the love and respect, or even the interest you deserve. <BR/><BR/>I hope that despite my neglect, you will continue to extend your friendship to me, and I will try to be more worthy.<BR/><BR/>Your servant,<BR/><BR/>Jagadananda Das.Jagadananda Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887720845815026518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31351038.post-41669518592300586042007-04-25T15:13:00.000-04:002007-04-25T15:13:00.000-04:00I think that Radha Govinda Das Babaji was Maharaj'...I think that Radha Govinda Das Babaji was Maharaj's diksha guru, not his grandfather's.
