    Hare Krishna, Mataji, dandavat

    May kindly see BG.6.34 where Srila Prabhupada is also giving analogy of horses to the senses.

    Hare Krishna

      Thank you very much for your help much appreciated, but I am looking for where each of the senses represents each horse. Is there any such thing. I am not too sure but I feel i have heard or read about this some where and can remember just because of my alpha buddhi. If you could guide me.

      What are the limbs of Dharma, Artha, Kaam and Moksha???

      Dharma have four limbs Austerity. Cleanliness. Mercy. Truthfulness

      Artha I have read somewhere it says that - In the Mahabharata, Santi Parva, 80th Adhyaya, Arjuna establishes that dharma and kama are the limbs of artha. Agriculture, trade, cattle rearing and all crafts are all  done for acquisition of wealth alone. Is this correct???

      Kaam what are the limbs ???

      Moksha ""???

      Thank you for whatever help you have provided.
