Суд над Бхагавад-гитой / Attempt to ban Bhagavad-gita

/ #13702011-12-18 03:10SB 10.44.1: Sukadeva Gosvami said: Thus addressed, Lord Krishna made up His mind to accept the challenge. He paired off with Canura, and Lord Balarama with Mushtika. SB 10.44.2: Seizing each other's hands and locking legs with each other, the opponents struggled powerfully, eager for victory. SB 10.44.3: They each struck fists against fists, knees against knees, head against head and chest against chest. SB 10.44.4: Each fighter contended with his opponent by dragging him about in circles, shoving and crushing him, throwing him down and running before and behind him. SB 10.44.5: Forcefully lifting and carrying each other, pushing each other away and holding each other down, the fighters hurt even their own bodies in their great eagerness for victory. SB 10.44.6: My dear King, all the women present, considering the match an unfair fight between the strong and the weak, felt extreme anxiety due to compassion. They assembled in groups around the arena and spoke to one another as follows. SB 10.44.7: [The women said:] Alas, what a greatly irreligious act the members of this royal assembly are committing! As the King watches this fight between the strong and the weak, they also want to see it. SB 10.44.8: What comparison can there be between these two professional wrestlers, with limbs as strong as lightning bolts and bodies resembling mighty mountains, and these two young, immature boys with exceedingly tender limbs? SB 10.44.9: Religious principles have certainly been violated in this assembly. One should not remain for even a moment in a place where irreligion is flourishing. SB 10.44.10: A wise person should not enter an assembly if he knows the participants there are committing acts of impropriety. And if, having entered such an assembly, he fails to speak the truth, speaks falsely or pleads ignorance, he will certainly incur sin. SB 10.44.11: Just see the lotus face of Krishna as He darts around His foe! That face, covered with drops of perspiration brought on by the strenuous fight, resembles a lotus covered with dew. SB 10.44.12: Don't you see the face of Lord Balarama, with its eyes copper-red from His anger toward Mushtika and its beauty enhanced by His laughter and His absorption in the fight? SB 10.44.13: How pious are the tracts of land in Vraja, for there the primeval Personality of Godhead, disguising Himself with human traits, wanders about, enacting His many pastimes! Adorned with wonderfully variegated forest garlands, He whose feet are worshiped by Lord Siva and goddess Rama vibrates His flute as He tends the cows in the company of Balarama. SB 10.44.14: What austerities must the gopis have performed! With their eyes they always drink the nectar of Lord Krishna's form, which is the essence of loveliness and is not to be equaled or surpassed. That loveliness is the only abode of beauty, fame and opulence. It is self-perfect, ever fresh and extremely rare. SB 10.44.15: The ladies of Vraja are the most fortunate of women because, with their minds fully attached to Krishna and their throats always choked up with tears, they constantly sing about Him while milking the cows, winnowing grain, churning butter, gathering cow dung for fuel, riding on swings, taking care of their crying babies, sprinkling the ground with water, cleaning their houses, and so on. By their exalted Krishna consciousness they automatically acquire all desirable things. SB 10.44.16: When the gopis hear Krishna playing His flute as He leaves Vraja in the morning with His cows or returns with them at sunset, the young girls quickly come out of their houses to see Him. They must have performed many pious activities to be able to see Him as He walks on the road, His smiling face mercifully glancing upon them. SB 10.44.17: [Sukadeva Gosvami continued:] As the women spoke thus, O hero of the Bharatas, Lord Krishna, the master of all mystic power, made up His mind to kill His opponent. SB 10.44.18: Out of affection for the two Lords, Their parents [Devaki and Vasudeva] became overwhelmed with sorrow when they heard the women's fearful statements. They grieved, not knowing their sons' strength. SB 10.44.19: Lord Balarama and Mushtika, expertly displaying numerous wrestling techniques, battled each other in the same way that Lord Krishna and His opponent did. SB 10.44.20: The harsh blows from the Supreme Lord's limbs fell like crushing lightning bolts upon Canura, breaking every part of his body and causing him more and more pain and fatigue. SB 10.44.21: Furious, Canura attacked Lord Vasudeva with the speed of a hawk and struck His chest with both fists. SB 10.44.22-23: No more shaken by the demon's mighty blows than an elephant struck with a flower garland, Lord Krishna grabbed Canura by his arms, swung him around several times and hurled him onto the ground with great force. His clothes, hair and garland scattering, the wrestler fell down dead, like a huge festival column collapsing. SB 10.44.24-25: Similarly, Mushtika struck Lord Balabhadra with his fist and was slain. Receiving a violent blow from the mighty Lord's palm, the demon trembled all over in great pain, vomited blood and then fell lifeless onto the ground, like a tree blown down by the wind. SB 10.44.26: Confronted next by the wrestler Kuta, Lord Balarama, the best of fighters, playfully and nonchalantly killed him with His left fist, O King. SB 10.44.27: Then Krishna struck the wrestler Sala in the head with His toes and tore him in half. The Lord dealt with Tosala in the same way, and both wrestlers fell down dead. SB 10.44.28: Canura, Mushtika, Kuta, Sala and Tosala having been killed, the remaining wrestlers all fled for their lives. SB 10.44.29: Krishna and Balarama then called Their young cowherd boyfriends to join Them, and in their company the Lords danced about and sported, Their ankle bells resounding as musical instruments played. SB 10.44.30: Everyone except Kamsa rejoiced at the wonderful feat Krishna and Balarama had performed. The exalted brahmanas and great saints exclaimed, "Excellent! Excellent!" SB 10.44.31: The Bhoja king, seeing that his best wrestlers had all been killed or had fled, stopped the musical performance originally meant for his pleasure and spoke the following words. SB 10.44.32: [Kamsa said:] Drive the two wicked sons of Vasudeva out of the city! Confiscate the cowherds' property and arrest that fool Nanda! SB 10.44.33: Kill that most evil fool Vasudeva! And also kill my father, Ugrasena, along with his followers, who have all sided with our enemies! SB 10.44.34: As Kamsa thus raved so audaciously, the infallible Lord Krishna, intensely angry, quickly and easily jumped up onto the high royal dais. SB 10.44.35: Seeing Lord Krishna approaching like death personified, the quick-witted Kamsa instantly rose from his seat and took up his sword and shield. SB 10.44.36: Sword in hand, Kamsa moved quickly from side to side like a hawk in the sky. But Lord Krishna, whose fearsome strength is irresistible, powerfully seized the demon just as the son of Tarkshya might capture a snake. SB 10.44.37: Grabbing Kamsa by the hair and knocking off his crown, the lotus-naveled Lord threw him off the elevated dais onto the wrestling mat. Then the independent Lord, the support of the entire universe, threw Himself upon the King. SB 10.44.38: As a lion drags a dead elephant, the Lord then dragged Kamsa's dead body along the ground in full view of everyone present. O King, all the people in the arena tumultuously cried out, "Oh! Oh!" SB 10.44.39: Kamsa had always been disturbed by the thought that the Supreme Lord was to kill him. Therefore when drinking, eating, moving about, sleeping or simply breathing, the King had always seen the Lord before him with the disc weapon in His hand. Thus Kamsa achieved the rare boon of attaining a form like the Lord's. SB 10.44.40: Kamsa's eight younger brothers, led by Kanka and Nyagrodhaka, then attacked the Lords in a rage, seeking to avenge their brother's death. SB 10.44.41: As they ran swiftly toward the two Lords, ready to strike, the son of Rohini slew them with His club just as a lion easily kills other animals. SB 10.44.42: Kettledrums resounded in the sky as Brahma, Siva and other demigods, the Lord's expansions, rained down flowers upon Him with pleasure. They chanted His praises, and their wives danced. SB 10.44.43: My dear King, the wives of Kamsa and his brothers, aggrieved by the death of their well-wishing husbands, came forward with tearful eyes, beating their heads. SB 10.44.44: Embracing their husbands, who lay on a hero's final bed, the sorrowful women loudly lamented while shedding constant tears. SB 10.44.45: [The women cried out:] Alas, O master, O dear one, O knower of religious principles! O kind and compassionate protector of the shelterless! By your being slain we have also been slain, together with your household and offspring. SB 10.44.46: O great hero among men, bereft of you, its master, this city has lost its beauty, just as we have, and all festivity and good fortune within it have come to an end. SB 10.44.47: O dear one, you have been brought to this state because of the terrible violence you committed against innocent creatures. How can one who harms others attain happiness? SB 10.44.48: Lord Krishna causes the appearance and disappearance of all beings in this world, and He is their maintainer as well. One who disrespects Him can never prosper happily. SB 10.44.49: Sukadeva Gosvami said: After consoling the royal ladies, Lord Krishna, sustainer of all the worlds, arranged for the prescribed funeral rites to be performed. SB 10.44.50: Then Krishna and Balarama released Their mother and father from bondage and offered obeisances to them, touching their feet with Their heads. SB 10.44.51: Devaki and Vasudeva, now knowing Krishna and Balarama to be the Lords of the universe, simply stood with joined palms. Being apprehensive, they did not embrace their sons. |

Hardworking People Against AB 928
Assembly Bill 928 is a reckless, poorly written legislative proposal. Whether it's for breeding, showing, rescuing, or keeping roosters for personal, cultural, or spiritual reasons, this bill undermines our way of life. It affects thousands across the state who cherish and maintain these animals as an integral part of our lives. Assembly Bill 928, under the guise of regulating cockfighting, does not distinguish between illegal activities and responsible rooster ownership. Legitimate breeders an...

The adoption and ratification of a new calendar for the United Global Trade Organization
To whom it may concern, I hope this article finds you well. **The Case for a New Calendar System Based on a Deck of Cards** The current Gregorian calendar, though widely accepted and functional, has long been criticized for its irregularities and inconsistencies. Months vary in length from 28 to 31 days, making planning and scheduling less intuitive. Adopting a new calendar system with "twelve plus one" months of 28 days each, and an additional "transition day" at the end of the year—would br...
