Why is ignorance not bliss?

Hare Krishna

Ignorance is certainly not bliss in my opinion because an ignorant person can easily trample upon the heads of persons of other faith who may be more dear to Lord Sri Krishna but don't align with an ignorant person's narrow dogmatic view of his or her particular sect.

      • I think it was on forgiving actually 

      • And forgives us

      • Actually I heard in one of the lectures of HG amogh lila prabhuji about tolerance that lord created this world for his devotees so that they may come to him back. But we (who are not devotees) are actually using and exploiting this nature (god 's energy) for our self gratification, but God tolerates.

  • Hare Krishna, 

    Why in the world you want me to accept your religion?

    If I am not not able to understand Sikhism ... is Sky falling on my head?

    I have fatih in Lord Sri Krishna and I am  follower of Vaishnavism. 

    If I don't agree to your religion what does it matter to you?

    Everyone has his own preferances and everyone has his or her own opinions. Why you make it a big issue.

    Your faith is upto you.

    My faith is mine.

    I don't deny or condemn your faith. You are free to follow whatever you want to.

    This is Vaishnavism and we believe in one god Sri Krishna and one book  BG. Hogaya baat khatam.

    If you have ur own faith and religious believes you can carry on.

    If your Guru granth saheb mentions about Krishna and rama. Why is there no deity worship?

    Why are they not reading BG as there main granth?

    If you cannot answer these two questions and you keep on lamenting that Gayatri mata ji is not accepting my faith .. Who cares for gayatri mata ji's words?

    you have faith in Guru Nanak. You continue on that path.

    • I am not asking you to accept other religions.

      I am just saying don't decry someone else's faith like you have been doing whether it is Sikhism or Christianity.

      • you don't have faith in sikhism yourself which is evident as you have cut your hair.so proclaiming yourself very faithful to sikhism seems like premium hypocrisy.

        also on other forum topic yesterday you said my punjabi sucks,it got me thinking as nobody has ever said that to me.then i realised what your problem is.i have some sikh friends in mumbai who can understand a fair bit of punjabi but can't speak an iota of it.so if their are specimens who understand and can't speak punjabi then it is only fair to believe that there would be others who can't understand it too.that seems to be your case.

        you are just like a kid telling his mom,look ma his punjabi sucks....and the mom replies---actually you know what son--it is not that his punjabi sucks ,it is that you suck at being a punjabi !!

        p.s  i think you must be wearing an extra large kada...only to compensate for your cutting hair and lack of punjabi oratory..

        • Punjabi nu leke jyaada serious hogaye Gaurav Prabhu.

          Agreed you are a Paindu but language is just a means of communication.

          I have ISKCON Bhagavad-gita translation in Punjabi also at home. I thought I will read it for preaching purposes in Punjabi but it seems Punjabis are not very interested in Bhagavad-gita. 

          Morever, the original is Bhagavad-gita As It Is in english language. The Bhagavad-gita in other languages were translated from the english version. So if one can understand from the original, there is no need for translations be it hindi or punjabi.

      • I don't even want to mention what you say about Islam.

        • sorry for that. 
          I cannot extend this discussion anymore.

          I know you are feeling offended

          you want to curse me 

          you have so much revengefulness in you.

          time and again you have been taking revenges on me.

          Why to bring this topic to make me?

          Just to curse me?

          Keep cursing me.

          I am sorry but I cannot have faith in any religion other than Sri Krishna.

          I know for the fact -- All belong to Krishna.

          Those who are devotees of other gods and who worship them with faith actually worship only Me, O son of Kuntī, but they do so in a wrong way. ( 9.23 BG)

          every bhakti done ( be it christian, islam or hindu or vaishnava) all finally reaches to one God that is Only KRISHNA.

          so why to rake our heads.

          One who pours water to the roots are directly watering the plant

          one who is pouring water to the leaves cannot make the plant grow.

          all beings living non living all belong to Krishna.

            Hare Krsna

            I cannot extend this discussion anymore.

            Excellent decision Mataji.

            Hare Krsna
