...Jadad bhai, pranams. Jay Sri Guru & Gauranga!<br />Without hesitating i can say that i subscribe to what you r saying in detail, however i read all of it "within one breath".<br /><br />My question remains at the level of "pure spirit"... since how one can enter into such state of grace devoid of a perfect spiritual body?<br /><br />Furthermore, how a manjari will continue as such if has voluntarily adopted the path and feelings of the sakhis....... i guess that from then on --meaning once a manjari, who originally is allowed to enter Radha-Givinda's nikunja-rati-- such manjari who opted to be a sakhi will then evolve into having her own kunja... and "privacy" in the company of her "new" manjaris assisting her in serving Govinda particularly...... to me this seems funds-mental. Most respectfully i ask u to comment, pls. TXS in advance. sadhudasa anudasaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31351038.post-56637627368964970372012-05-09T19:58:10.548-04:002012-05-09T19:58:10.548-04:00Amen. I'll second that fine sermon. Tell it li...Amen. I'll second that fine sermon. Tell it like it is. I say this as you know a Radha-Krishna devotee for 45 years, practicing manjari bhav for 38 years, a former sannyasi who's been married three times, and with my current wife for 25 years.<br /><br />Living in the West and not having the language skills or education you do, I had to put things together on my own using available resources and following my inner guru. What I call the way of natural devotion is the Western parallel to your sahaja bhakti. By parallel paths we have reached a common ground. <br /><br />Best wishes since what you write complements my writing quite well.
