Haribol! I am deeply grateful to you for sharing this profound wisdom with me. While detachment from saṃsāra can lead to liberation, even such detachment cannot bestow the divine love of Kṛṣṇa (Kṛṣṇa prema). May Śrī Gauranga Mahāprabhu bless us with His infinite mercy so that we may cultivate pure love for Kṛṣṇa in our hearts.
Hare Kṛṣṇa Prabhu.
Do you think that only false ego is hindering us from attaining pure love? So, in this way, jain-muni's would have immense love for Kṛṣṇa? Isn't?
Hare Kṛṣṇa.
The Jain sādhus doesn't have any kāma, krodha, lobha, moha, etc. So, how can it comes under false ego? They don't have any material desires rather than bringing the soul towards divine.
Who was composing this definitions in the medieval age?
If false ego hinders us from getting back to Godhead, then identifying ourselves solely as 'I am Muslim,' 'I am Sikh,' 'I am Jain,' or 'I am Christian'—doesn’t this also hinder the attainment of divine love (prema)? A devotee must be free from all such designations (label). He should be sincerely surrendered to the absolute truth - Kṛṣṇa.
yes, It is my mistake for being a bit harsh .. thanks for pointing out. I am sorry for hurting someone's religious sentiments.
I am not interested to prove anything. Maybe you are right. It might bring up communal war. So I want to end up here.
I am sorry prabhu ji for hurting your religious sentiments
I have deleted all my comments.
buddhism and jainism owe their origin to God and sikhism owes its origin to pure devotee.So they do have some basis.
they might be far away from sarv dharmaan parityaja..but you know well enough that some things need to be done according to time, place and circumstances.
just doing wholesale discredit of them seems a bit harsh.
Even today, some members of the Jain community have embraced Vaishnavism. Meanwhile, many Buddhists have been influenced by Demon. Ambedkar’s teachings, leading to a shift away from Hindu traditions.
Regarding Sikhism, the Guru Granth Sahib places great emphasis on Nama Aashray (taking refuge in the Divine Name). However, it appears that many contemporary Sikhs are no longer deeply engaged with this spiritual practice. Additionally, a section of the Sikh community, particularly those born into the faith, seem to be prioritizing transient pleasures, such as alcohol and tobacco, over the core tenets of their religion.
You can check the granthas of jain religion as far as i know. It was known as "ātma-dharma" book written by a jain muni discussing the strict rules and jain principles. There is an organisation inspired from this religion.
