Vaishnava

“O Grandisre Bhishma! though you are on arrow bed, you have been giving replies to my questions patiently. I heard so many dharmas from your mouth. But will they prevent birth and death and also the sufferings caused from birth and death. I cannot take births and deaths from time time, and travel constantly from womb to tomb.

O Grandisre! will there by any difference from hell and the womb. This world itself is temporary. I behold this world as a poison. I hate this kingdom and samsara. Kindly teach me about Vaishnava Dharma to attain liberation. Nowadays, even according to Bhagavan Veda Vyasa, we cannot find Vaishnava Dharma in any corner of this world. Hence I am asking you. Kindly teach me about Vaishnava Dharma.”asked Dharmaja.

“O Dharmaja! are you mad. You have fought 18 days, killed all your enemies and conquered this Kingdom. Instead of enjoying the royal pleasures, you are talking like a Sanyasi. Kshatriya youths shall not speak like this. You are speaking like Janaka, king of Midhila.

Of course, you can derive eternal happiness from liberation. But nobody describes about it. It is beyond the concept of Jeeva. There are several Praktitis but Akriti is one. Though Akriti transforms into several Jeevaatmas, it shall not change its original character and will not forget its original form. Path of samsara appears to be so easy to reach. The path of liberation is covered with desires. Therefore one has to lead his life adopting Satva, abandoning Kama and Krodha. This is called Vaishnava Dharma. You also follow this Dharma. Leave the fear of Samsara and proced towards liberation.” said Bishma.
