Pages in category "Samika Rsi"
The following 41 pages are in this category, out of 41 total.
A
- After entering the hermitage and seeing his (Srngi's) father in that condition, he cried loudly so that he might be relieved. But it was too late. The father (Samika Rsi) regretted the whole incident
- After explaining the general codes relating to the royal position and asserting that the king can do no wrong and therefore is never to be condemned, the sage Samika wanted to say something about Emperor Pariksit specifically
- Although all the brahmanas were aloof from the incident, still for the childish action of a brahmana boy the whole world situation was changed. Thus Rsi Samika, a brahmana, took responsibility for all deterioration of the good orders of the world
- As a matter of fact, the King (Maharaja Pariksit) was right to get angry with the rsi (Samika Rsi) when he needed a glass of water very badly
- As the dog is never allowed to enter within the room and hearth, although it is reared by the master, similarly, according to Srngi, the King (Maharaja Pariksit) had no right to enter the house of Samika Rsi
H
- He (Maharaja Pariksit) never expected that a seat of straw, a glass of water and some sweet words (from Samika Rsi) would be denied to him
- He (Maharaja Pariksit) never expected that a seat of straw, a glass of water and some sweet words would be denied to him. He was not an ordinary guest, nor was he an enemy of the rsi (Samika Rsi), and the cold reception by rsi astonished the King greatly
- He (Samika Rsi) directly prayed for pardon from the Supreme Lord, who alone can undo a thing which is impossible to change. The appeal was made in the name of a foolish boy who had developed no intelligence at all
- He (Samika Rsi) thought within himself that if Maharaja Pariksit would countercurse the boy, he might be saved. But he knew also that a pure devotee is callous about worldly advantages or reverses
- He was also a great devotee of the Lord and a self-realized soul. Cursing such a king, when he was tired and fatigued with hunger and thirst, was not at all proper. Samika Rsi thus admitted from all sides that Maharaja Pariksit was cursed most unjustly
I
- It appears that the muni (Samika Rsi), in whose hermitage the King (Maharaja Pariksit) entered, was in yogic trance
- It must be accepted that it was so (Maharaja Pariksit anger towards Samika Rsi) ordained by the supreme will of the Lord. The King was a great devotee of the Lord, and the saint was also as good as the King
- It was a personal affair, and therefore Samika Rsi knew that the King (Maharaja Pariksit) would not take counteraction. Thus there was no alternative than to place an appeal to the Lord for the immature boy
- It was the desire of the Lord, and Maharaja Pariksit, Rsi Samika and his son Srngi were all instrumental in fulfilling the desire of the Lord. So none of them were put into difficulty because everything was done in relation with the Supreme Person
M
- Maharaja Pariksit could have gone to the muni to beg his pardon, but the news of imminent death was conveyed to the King with so much regret by the muni that the King did not want to shame the muni further by his presence there
- Maharaja Pariksit said: Once when I felt very thirsty, I went to the asrama of Samika Muni to drink water, but the muni did not supply it. I therefore wrapped a dead snake over his shoulder, and that is why I was cursed by the brahmana boy
R
- Rsi Samika also knew that the Lord does not forgive a person who has committed an offense at the feet of a devotee. The Lord can only give direction to take shelter of the devotee
- Rsi Samika could foresee that his son had committed a great sin by cursing Maharaja Pariksit, who deserved to be protected by the brahmanas, for he was a pious ruler and completely free from all sins because of his being a first-class devotee of the Lord
S
- Samika Muni also, after regretting the incident, conveyed the news to the King (Maharaja Pariksit) as a matter of duty so that the King would be able to prepare himself to go back to Godhead
- Samika Muni and the King were self-realized souls. Samika Muni was a mystic, and Maharaja Pariksit was a devotee. Therefore there was no difference between them in self-realization. Neither of them was afraid of meeting death
- Samika Muni sent news to the King (Maharaja Pariksit) that foolish Srngi, his son, although a powerful brahmana boy, unfortunately had misused his spiritual power by cursing the King unwarrantedly
- Since Samika Rsi was an experienced, good brahmana, he did not approve of the actions of his condemned son. He began to lament for all that his son had done
T
- The answer is that the offensive act was performed by a child (Srngi) only so that he could be excused very easily, and thus the prayer of the father (Samika Rsi) was accepted
- The father (Samika Rsi father of Srngi) did not take the dead snake on his neck very seriously. He simply threw it away
- The foolish boy was, of course, excused by the Lord, but others, who may not have a father like Samika Rsi, will be put into great difficulty if they misuse the advantages obtained by birth in a brahmana family
- The incident of the King's (Maharaja Pariksit) garlanding the muni (Samika Rsi) was not sufficient cause for being cursed to death, but since there was no way to retract the curse, the King was informed to prepare for death within a week
- The King (Maharaja Pariksit) was a devotee, and the rsi (Samika Rsi) was a mystic. Therefore both of them were unattached to the accidental incident created by the supreme will. The playful child (Srngi) was an instrument in fulfilling the Lord's will
- The offense of the King (Maharaja Pariksit) was most insignificant, and his being condemned to death was certainly a very great sin for Srngi. Therefore Rsi Samika regretted the whole incident
- The pious King (Pariksit) regretted his accidental improper treatment of the powerful brahmana (Samika Rsi) who was faultless. Such repentance is natural for a good man like the King and it delivers a devotee from all kinds of sins accidentally committed
- The rsi prayed to the all-pervading Personality of Godhead to pardon his immature boy, who had no intelligence and who committed the great sin of cursing a person who was completely free from all sins, who was subordinate and who deserved to be protected
- The sage (Samika Rsi) rightly takes the responsibility of the brahmanas as a community for 2) giving an opportunity to the so-called democrats, who are generally plunderers of the wealth of the state subjects
- The typical example is the son of Samika Rsi, and all the foolish sons of brahmanas are warned hereby not to become as foolish as Srngi and be always on guard against the demoniac qualities which they had in their previous births
- The whole incident is now cleared up. Maharaja Pariksit's garlanding the sage (Samika Rsi) with a dead snake was not at all a very serious offense, but Srngi's cursing the King was a serious offense
- The word nah (we) is very significant in this verse (SB 1.18.44). The sage (Samika Rsi) rightly takes the responsibility of the brahmanas as a community for 1) killing monarchical government
- There was nothing seriously wrong in Maharaja Pariksit's act (throwing a snake on Samika Rsi's shoulders) but the foolish son (Srngi) took it very seriously, and being influenced by Kali he cursed the King and thus ended a chapter of happy history
- This is a verse from Srimad-Bhagavatam, spoken by Maharaja Pariksit while he was sitting on the bank of the Ganges expecting to be bitten by a snake-bird summoned by the curse of a brahmana boy named Srngi, who was the son of a great sage named Samika
- This trance stops all material activities of the body. The King (Maharaja Pariksit) saw the muni (Samika Rsi) in that position. He also saw the muni as follows
W
- When Maharaja Pariksit entered the door of Samika Rsi, he did not expect a royal reception by the rsi because he knew that saints and rsis are not materially rich men
- While searching for a reservoir of water, he (Maharaja Pariksit) entered the hermitage of the well-known Samika Rsi and saw the sage sitting silently with closed eyes
