This is the embarrassment." Then Maharaj quoted the following verse from Srimad Bhagavatam 5.19.7:<br /><br /><br />na janma nunam mahato na saubhagam<br />na vaan na buddhir naakritis tosha-hetuh<br />tair yad visrishtaan api no vanaukasash<br />cakaara sakhye bata lakshmanaagrajah<br /><br />"One cannot establish a friendship with the Supreme Lord Ramacandra on the basis of material qualities such as one's birth in an aristocratic family, one's personal beauty, one's eloquence, one's sharp intelligence or one's superior race or nation. None of these qualifications is actually a prerequisite for friendship with Lord Shri Ramacandra. Otherwise how is it possible that although we uncivilized inhabitants of the forest have not taken noble births, although we have no physical beauty and although we cannot speak like gentlemen, Lord Ramacandra has nevertheless accepted us as friends?"<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8801036350045914110-6973910512353764312?l=krishnaprema-premikandasa.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>jey anandhttps://profiles.google.com/103212265861030103933noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8801036350045914110.post-26888961587130498922012-03-03T12:46:00.000-08:002012-03-03T12:46:12.618-08:002012-03-03T12:46:12.618-08:00<a href="http://www.iskcondesiretree.net/profiles/blogs/answers-from-a-mahabhagavata">----- Answers from A Maha-Bhagavata - How to Handle Criticism ? ----- - ISKCON Desire Tree - Devotee Network</a>: Srimad Bhagavatam 2.4.3-4<br /><br /><br />mugdham maam nigadantu neeti-nipunaa bhraantam muhur vaidikaah<br />mandam baandhava-sancayâ jada-dhiyam muktaadaraah sodaraah<br />unmattam dhanino viveka-caturaah kaamam mahaa-daambhikam<br />moktum na kshaamate manaag api mano govinda-paada- sprhaam<br /><br />"Let the sharp moralist accuse me of being illusioned; I do not mind.
