Charles and I are in one way or another
total opposites, that's why we learn so
much from eachother. I never judge
people for their lifestyle. I try to
understand what lives in the minds and
hearts of other people. I found my
inspiration in bhakti yoga, as well as in
the Bible, the Torah and the Holy Quran.
May it inspire others as well.
The traditional bhakti has four regulatory
precepts called vidhi (from the Sanskrit root
vidha, to put in order), S.B. 1.17:24 and
12.3:18: the ban on eating meat, fish and eggs;
no sex outside of marriage (and within it
reserved for procreation); no narcotics such as
drugs and alcohol; the prohibition of gambling
or speculating with money. These precepts are
derived from the eternal values of the religion
(dharma), also called 'the four legs of the bull
of dharma': śaucha, purity; satyam,
truthfulness; tapas, austerity and asceticism;
daya, compassion.
In the present age of spiritual decay, the socalled
"dark age" (kali yuga) which we are
currently living through according to Hindu
tradition, which began with the passing of Sri
Krishna thousands of years ago, these "taurus
legs" have been severely weakened. Thus, by
means of bhakti-yoga, the society of a
righteous humanity is literally 'set up' again.
The observance of said values is considered by
all Hindus as the basis for practicing their
religion, which is officially called the Sanātana
Dharma ("the eternal religion"). They represent
to the Hindu the same value as the Ten
Commandments to the Christians. We are
within a small golden age within Kali Yuga
in which devotees or bhakti yogis from all
religions are still present, Gods are still
worshipped and sacred literature is still
available. Make this life a succes through
devotion to God, so that you can return to
Godhead, never having to reincarnate
again.
There Are Three Gates Leading to Hell – Lust, Anger and
Greed. – Bhagavad Gita, 16.21
May even the most fallen become
liberated and thus be saved.
