Hare Krishna devotees

Please accept my humble obeisances

When Maharaja Pariksit heard the narration of Krsna's conjugal pastimes with the gopis, which superficially resemble the activities of lusty, wanton persons, he expressed a doubt to the great devotee Srila Sukadeva Gosvami. Sukadeva dispelled this doubt by stating, " Since Sri Krsna is the absolute enjoyer, such pastimes as these can never be contaminated by any fault. But if anyone other than the Supreme Personality of Godhead tries to enjoy such pastimes, he will suffer the same fate that someone other than Lord Rudra would suffer if he attempted to drink an ocean of poison. 

Please forgive me if I have offended anyone

    Maybe because rasa lila is transcendental, and performing such divine activities even when we are not capable, we want to dance with 10000 crore gopis,when we can't lift Giriraj like Krishna, can eat fire like Krishna! 

    Since I don't which remember which shloka it was, i cannot give reference but I remember that it was in one of the PURPORT in BG when srila Prabhupada says that fools try to imitate the lord when they cannot lift the goverdhan parvat like god. 

    Also once some disciples of srila Prabhupada asked him that "srila Prabhupada lord krishna and lord balarama have got such beautiful hair, why can't we hair hair?"

    Then srila Prabhupada answered "do have hair?" And told them that we shouldn't try to imitate the God father we should follow his instructions and follow what guru tells us and what guru does.

        I am glad for the words of honour, but I don't think it was that quick.
