My pranam to all ! I am really sorry to ask this question. Please forgive me if this hurts any of you but i wanted to know why Indra is a Deva if he lusts after so many women ?
You need to be a member of ISKCON Desire Tree | IDT to add comments!
He's lust is lesser than ours because of that he is in that position. Plus when he fulfills his desires he does not go through sinful ways but uses ways prescribed in the Vedas.
For example, lust means desire for sex so when he wants sex he marries to many women and takes responsibility of each of them and does not use things which kills a child. But we do not want to take responsibility of a single child but want the good part only.
So no need to even open a discussion on this matter.
May be on his present post he does not have many wives but many girls but he earned these fruits by his pious life style in his previous lives.
