Wijsheid van de dag (Dutch / English)

‘Devotionele dienst aan de Heer die de geautoriseerde Vedische teksten, zoals de upaniṣads, de purāṇa’s en het Nārada-pañcarātra, veronachtzaamt, is enkel een onnodige verstoring in de samenleving.’

Bhagavad Gita, 7.3

“Devotional service of the Lord that ignores the authorized Vedic literatures like the Upaniṣads, Purāṇas and Nārada Pañcarātra is simply an unnecessary disturbance in society.”

Simply by the influence of a pure devotee of the Lord, his maternal grandfather, grandmother, mother and hundreds of other relatives, brothers, friends, servants, wife, sons and daughters become delivered.

Text 27 yat-kanydrh pratigrhndti tad adi-purusa-trayam kanya-pradata svasuro jivan-muktah sabhdryakah

Three generations of the family of his father-in-law, as well as his father-in-law and mother-in-law, become liberated.  

What is the goal of spiritual practices? It is to realize God, to attain Divine grace. The practices are meant to clear the heart of all the impurities brought there by lust & greed. Unless this is done, you can never reach your goal, however much you may try. SWAMI BRAHMANANDA
