Humility and Ferocity | Progressive Spirituality
Q: How should we respond when we are faced with threat, opposition or violence in our lives? Should we fight back? - What’s the will of Krishna? – To protect the deity and the Vaishnava we will respond like fire. – Jiva Goswami, Saraswati Thakur: humility and ferocity in defending the line. – Apasiddhanta: against the proper understanding of Krishna consciousness. – Swarup Damodar and Govinda Maharaj do not let to disturb the fine sentiments of their Masters. – A connection with the genuine devotees is our concern. – The best is to take shelter of the vision of the mahabhagavatas. – We are interested in faith, not mundane calculation. – Q: My insults led me to a bad place. In my heart I repent. Do I have a chance for pardon? How can I get out of this? – Ask forgiveness from the Vaishnava. – Observance of Ekadashi and Dvadashi. – Durvasa Muni and Ambarish Maharaj: the Lord can’t help you if you offended a devotee. – Kalidas: the extreme faith in the devotees. – The hallmark of progressive devotion is to appreciate devotion in others. – Even a drop of devotion attracts Krishna. – Gradation of the devotion: Narada Muni’s journey. – Guru’s ire or praise - what is better? – Dvaraka Krishna becomes Jagannath. – The proper praise of the devotees will take us to the lotus feet of Srimati Radharani.
