As the wife of King Pandu and the\nmother of five illustrious sons (the Pandavas), she\nwas a central figure in a complex political drama\n\nthat fifty centuries ago culminated in the devastating Kuruksetra War.\n\nAt the conclusion of the war, Queen Kunti\napproaches Lord Krsna as He prepares to depart\n\nfrom the scene of battle. Although Kunti is Lord\nKrsna’s aunt\n\n(He incarnated as her brother\n\nVasudeva’s son), she perfectly understands His\nexalted and divine identity as the Supreme Per-\n\nsonality of Godhead. She knows full well that He\ndescended from His abode in the spiritual world\n\nto rid the earth of demoniac military forces and\nreestablish peace and righteousness. Thus the\nprayers she offers Him on this occasion are not\nthe conventional pious solicitations. Rather, they\nare philosophical reflections, devotional illumina-\n\ntions, even mystical exultations. As such they\nhave been recorded and immortalized in the\nSrimad-Bhdgavatam, India’s greatest philosophical\nand spiritual classic.\nQueen Kunti’s prayers—the simple and illuminating outpourings of the soul of a great and\nsaintly woman devotee—reveal both the deepest\ntranscendental emotions of the heart and the most\nprofound philosophical and theological penetrations of the intellect. Her words have been\nrecited, chanted, and sung by sages and philoso-\n\nphers in India for thousands of years.\nTeachings of Queen Kunti consists of Kunti’s\ncelebrated prayers as recorded in the SrimadBhagavatam together with illuminating commentary by His Divine Grace A.C.

Only the five sons of PaJ:.lQU and a small handful of others remained to console the relatives of the slain. Prince Duryodhana's ambitions had been smashed, yet his few surviving followers wished to find\nhim some last revenge. Still, only Asvatthama was rash enough to carry\nout the scheme to mUrder the PaJ:.lQavas' five children in their sleep arid\nthus finish the line of succession. He had expected that this would please\nhis master, but Duryodhana was appalled to hear of the atrocity and died\nin lamentation. Arrested and dragged to the Pal,lQavas' camp like a bound\nanimal, Asvatthama was let free only by the astounding compassion of\nDraupadi, the slaughtered boys' mother, who pleaded for his life. But the\nshameless Asvatthama made one more attempt to kill the last heir of the\nPal,lQavas, their unborn grandson in the womb of Uttara, by hurling the\nsupreme brahmastra weapon. When she saw the missile flying straight at\nher, Uttara immediately ran to the shelter of Lord Kr�J:.la, who was just\nabout to depart for His capital city. Kr�J:.la protected the PaJ:.lQavas and\ntheir mother Kunti from imminent death by stopping the weapon's uncontrollable heat and radiation with His own Sudarsana disc. Having\ndelivered the PaJ:.lQavas from this last calamity, and seeing that all His\nplans were fulfilled, Lord Kr�J:.la was again preparing to leave. For years\nDuryodhana had tormented Queen Kunti's family, but Kr�J:.la had protected them at every turn-and now He was going away.

They were ordered by Lord\nBrahm to produce offspring, and so they engaged themselves in severe\nausterities for thousands of years. Being pleased by their penances, Krsna\ncame before them and asked them what they wanted. They said, ‘“We\nwant a son like You. That is our desire.’’ Krsna agreed, and in their next\nlives Sutapa and Prsni (now Vasudeva and Devaki) had the extraordinary\nopportunity to play the role of Lord Krsna’s parents. As shown here,\nVasudeva and Devaki were within Kamsa’s prison when Lord Krsna in\nHis Visnu form appeared before them as their son.

They think that\nthe spiritual world is void. However, the spiritual world is exactly like the\nmaterial world in that it has varieties. In the spiritual world there are also\nhouses, trees, roads, chariots - everything is there, but without the material inebrieties. As described in Brahma-samhita ( 5 . 29) :\ncintama�i-prakara-sadmasu kalpa-vrk�alak�avrte�u surabhfr abhipalayantam\nlak�mf-sahasra-sata-sambhrama-sevyamanam\ngovindam adi-puru�am tam aham bhajami\n\n\"I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, the first progenitor, who is tending the cows, yielding all desires, in abodes built with spiritual gems, surrounded by millions of purpose trees, and always served with great\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0211": "Unalloyed Devotion\n\n191\n\nreverence and affection by hundreds o f thousands o f goddesses of fortune, or gopis. \"\nIn the spiritual world there are ka/pa- vrk$a trees, which yield whatever\ntype of fruit we desire. In the material world a mango tree cannot supply\ngrapes, nor can a grapevine supply mangoes. In the spiritual world, however, if we take a mango from a tree and at the same time desire grapes,\nthe tree will supply them. This is called a \"desire tree. \" These are\nsome of the actualities of the spiritual world.\nIn this material world we require sunlight and moonlight, but in the\nspiritual world there is no need of sunlight and moonlight because everything and everyone is effulgent. In kmza-lila, Kr�Q.a stole butter, and the\nneighborhood friends of mother Yasoda complained. Actually they were\nnot complaining, but were just enjoying the bodily features and the fun of\nKf�Q.a. They told mother Yasoda, \"Your son comes to our house and\nsteals butter. We try to conceal it in the dark so that He cannot see it, but\nsomehow He still finds it out. You had better take away all His ornaments\nbecause we think that the light of His jewels helps Him find the butterpot . \" Mother Yasoda replied, \"Yes, I will take off all His ornaments. \"\nBut the neighbors would reply, \"No, no. I t i s useless. Somehow this boy\nhas an effulgence that comes out of Himself. He can find the butter even\nwithout the ornaments. \" Thus the transcendental body is effulgent.\nIt is because of the effulgence of Kf�Q.a's transcendental body that\nthere is light. Whatever light we see is simply borrowed light from\nKr�Q.a' s effulgence. As stated in the Brahma-samhita ( 5 . 40) :\nyasya prabha prabhavato jagada1Jfia-kotikoti$V ase$a- vasudhadi- vibhuti-bhinnam\ntad brahma ni$kalam anantam ase$a-bhutam\ngovindam adi-pUTU$arfz tam aham bhajami\n\n\"In the millions and millions of universes there are innumerable planets,\nand each of them is different from the others by its cosmic constitution.\nAll of these planets are situated within the spiritual effulgence called the\nbrahmajyoti. This brahmajyoti is the bodily effulgence of the Supreme\nPersonality of Godhead, whom I worship. \"\nThe bodily effulgence of Kr�Q.a generates millions o f universes. I n this\nsolar system the sun produces many planets, and because of sunshine the\nplanets are warm and the seasons change. Because of the sun there are\ntrees, green foliage, fruits, and flowers. Similarly, whatever we see in creation is all due to Kr�Q.a's bodily effulgence.\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0212": "192\n\nTEACHINGS OF QUEEN KUNTI\n\nThe Mayavadis simply see the effulgence, which is impersonal. They\ncannot see anything more. We may see an airplane rise in the sky, but\nafter a while it passes out of our sight due to the dazzling sunshine. The\nairplane is there, but we cannot see it. Similarly, if we simply try to see\nthe effulgent brahmajyoti, we are unable to see within it. One of the\nmantras in the lsopani�ad therefore petitions the Lord to wind up His\neffulgence so that He can be seen properly.\nThe Mayavadi philosophers cannot see the personal activities of Kf�Q.a\nnor the planet where Kf�Q.a is personally active. The Bhagavatam says,\naruhya krcchre�a pararh padarh tatal.z patanty adho 'ntidrta-yu�madanghrayal.z: because they do not see the lotus feet of Kf�Q.a, they have to\nreturn to this material world, despite all their serious penances and\nausterities. Thus renunciation in itself will not help us. We may artificially renounce, but again we shall become so-called enjoyers. Such renunciation and enjoyment is like a pendulum that goes this way and that.\nOn one side we become false renunciants, and on the other we become\nfalse enjoyers. The remedy, however, is here. If we really want to become\ndetached from this material world, we must increase our attachment for\nKf�Q.a consciousness. Renunciation alone will not help us. Therefore\nKuntidevi prays, tvayi me 'nanya-vi�aya. She prays that her attraction be\nconstantly drawn unto Kf�Q.a without being diverted to anything else.\nThis is bhakti, pure devotional service, for as mentioned by Rupa\nGosvami, devotional service should be unalloyed (anyabhila�ita-sunyarh\njfiana-karmtidy-anavrtam) .\nIn this material world there arejfianis and karmis. The karmis are fools\nwho unnecessarily work very hard, and the jfianis are those who, when a\nlittle elevated, think, \"Why work so hard? So many things are not required. Why accumulate so much money and food and so much false\nprestige? \" Thejfianithinks in this way. The bhakta, however, is beyond\nthe karmiand thejfiani. The karmihas many desires, and thejfianitries to\nget rid of all desires, but desirelessness can be possible only when we\ndesire to serve Kf�Q.a. Otherwise it is not possible to get rid of desires.\nJfiana-karmady-anavrtam. As bhaktas, we should have no desires for\njfiana and karma. We should be without attachment for material things,\nbut we must have attachment for Kf�Q.a. In this way our detachment will\nbe fixed.\nWe must cultivate Kf�Q.a consciousness favorably (anukulyena kr��anusi/anam) . This means thinking of how Kf�Q.a will be satisfied. We\nmust always think of Kf�Q.a, just like the gopis. The Kf�Q.a consciousness\nof the gopis was perfect because they had no desire other than to try to\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0213": "Unalloyed Devotion\n\n193\n\nplease Kr�Q.a. That is perfection. Therefore Caitanya Mahaprabhu recommends, ramya kacid upasana vraja -vadhil-vargeQa ya ka/pita: there is no\nbetter process by which to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead\nthan that method adopted by the gopis.\nThe gopis had no desire other than to satisfy Kr�Q.a. All the gopis tried\nto satisfy Him, including the elder gopis, Yasoda and her friends, and so\nalso did the elderly gopas like Nanda Maharaja and his friends. The boys\nand girls of Vrndavana who were of the same age as Kr�Q.a also tried to\nsatisfy Him. Everyone tried to satisfy Kr�Q.a - even the cows, the flowers,\nthe fruits, and the water of Vrndavana. This is because everything in\nVrndavana is spiritual; nothing is material.\nWe should understand the difference between spiritual and material.\nThat which is material has no living symptoms, and that which is spiritual\nhas all living symptoms. Both the trees in the spiritual world and those in\nthe material world are living entities, but in trees here the living\nsymptoms are absent. A human being is a living entity, and the devotees\nin the spiritual world are also living erttities, but in the human beings who\nare not Kr�Q.a conscious the real symptoms of life are absent.\nActually there is no other consciousness but Kr�Q.a consciousness.\nAnd that consciousness is spiritual. Thus even while in this material\nworld, if we simply increase our K�Q.a consciousness we shall live in the\nspiritual world. If we live in the temple, we live in the spiritual world because in the temple there is no business other than Kr�Q.a consciousness.\nThere are so many engagements carried out for Kr�Q.a. Those who strictly\nfollow the regulations of Kr�Q.a consciousness actually live in the spiritual\nworld, not the material world. We may think we are living in New York,\nLos Angeles, or elsewhere, but we are actually living in VaikuQ.tha.\nIt is a question of consciousness. A bug may sit on the same seat with\nthe spiritual master, but because the spiritual master has developed consciousness and the bug does not, they are different. They may be sitting\nin the same place, but the bug remains a bug, and the spiritual master remains the spiritual master. The position in space may remain the same,\njust as we remain in the material world or the spiritual world, but if our\nKr�Q.a consciousness is strong, we are not in the material world.\nThus renunciation by itself, the simple giving up of worldly things, is\nnot sufficient. Renunciation may be a helpful process, but it will not help\nabsolutely. When we increase our attachment for Kr�na, our renunciation will be perfect. As we increase attachment for Kr�Q.a, attachment for\nthis material world will automatically diminish. Attachment for Kr�Q.a\nand the material world cannot go hand in hand. If a woman is attached to\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0214": "194\n\nTEACHINGS OF QUEEN KUNTI\n\ntwo men—her husband and her paramour—she cannot maintain her attachment for both. Her attachment will increase for her paramour. Although she may work at her husband’s home very nicely, her mind will\nbe attached to her paramour, and she will think, ‘‘When shall I meet him\n\ntonight?”’ In the same way, if we increase our attachment for Krsna,\ndetachment or renunciation of this material world will automatically\n\ncome (bhaktih paresdnubhavo viraktir anyatra ca, Bhdg. 11.2.42).\nThus Kuntidevi prays to Krsna that He may grant her His mercy by\nwhich she can become attached to Him. We cannot increase our attachment for Krsna without Krsna’s mercy. We cannot become devotees\nwithout Krsna’s mercy; therefore we simply have to serve Krsna, for by\nservice Krsna is satisfied.\nKrsna does not require anyone’s service, for He is perfect in Himself.\nHowever, if we give Him service wholeheartedly and sincerely, then, by\nHis mercy, we shall make advancement. Sevonmukhe hi jihvddau svayam\neva sphuraty adah. God will reveal Himself to us. We cannot see God with\nour blunt eyes. How then can we see Him? Premdfjana-cchurita-bhakti-\n\nvilocanenal santah sadaiva hrdayesu vilokayanti (Brahma-samhitd 5.38).\nWe have to smear our eyes with the ointment of love; then Krsna will\n\nreveal Himself. Krsna will actually come in front of us.\nWhen Dhruva Maharaja was undergoing penance and meditating upon\n\nthe form of Visnu within his heart, the Visnu form suddenly disappeared,\nand his meditation broke. Upon opening his eyes, Dhruva Maharaja immediately saw Visnu before him. Like Dhruva Maharaja, we should always think of Krsna, and when we attain perfection we shall see Krsna\nbefore us. This is the process. We should not be too hasty. We should\nwait for the mature time. Of course, it is good to be eager to see Krsna,\nbut we should not become discouraged if we do not see Him immediately. If a woman gets married and wants a child immediately, she\nwill be disappointed. It is not possible to have a child immediately. She\nmust wait. Similarly, we cannot expect that just because we engage ourselves in Krsna consciousness we can see Krsna immediately. But we\n\nmust have faith that we will see Him. We must have firm faith that because we are engaged in Krsna consciousness we shall be able to see\nKrsna face to face. We should not be disappointed. We should simply go\non with our Krsna conscious activities, and the time will come when we\nwill see Krsna, just as Kuntidevi sees Him face to face. There is no doubt\nabout this.\nIn the Bhagavad-gitd it is stated that even if one is sometimes found to\n\nbe somewhat misbehaved, he is to be considered saintly if he engages\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0215": "Unalloyed Devotion\n\n1 95\n\nsteadily in the service of Kr�Q.a. Sometimes American or European devotees may be criticized because they make mistakes and fall short of the\nsystem for worshiping the Deity as practiced in India, but still, according\nto Bhagavad-gitti, they must be considered saintly. We must fix our\nminds upon serving Kr�Q.a sincerely and seriously, and then, even if\nthere is some mistake, Kr�Q.a will excuse it. Riipa Gosvami says, tasmtit\nkentipy uptiyena mana� kr�IJe nivesayet: we should first fix our minds upon\nKr�Q.a, and then the ability to follow the other rules and regulations will\nautomatically follow.

Kr�Q.a has thousands of\nnames , and the name Madhupati indicates that He killed the demon\nMadhu. Kr�Q.a consciousness is likened to a river, but not an ordinary\nriver. It is like the River Ganges, which is very pure and directly connected to Kr�Q.a. Kuntidevi prays that just as the River Ganges flows\ntoward the sea, her attraction will flow incessantly toward Kr�Q.a's lotus\nfeet. This is called ananya-bhakti, unalloyed devotion. Thus Kuntidevi\nprays that her attraction for Kr�Q.a will flow without hindrance.\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0216": "26 .

In every monarchy, the\nking is honored very gorgeously. Why ? Since he is a human being and\nthe other citizens are also human beings, why is the king so honored?\nThe answer is that the king, like the spiritual master, is meant to be the\nrepresentative of God. In the Vedic literature it is said, tictiryom mtim vijtiniytin ntivomonyeto korhicit (Bhtig. 1 1 . 1 7 . 27) : the spiritual master\nshould not be regarded as an ordinary human being. Similarly, a king or\npresident is also not treated like an ordinary human being.\nIn the Sanskrit language the king is also called norodevo, which means\n\" God in human form. \" His duty is like that of Kf�Qa. As God is the\nsupreme living being in the universe and is the maintainer of all other\nliving beings, the king is the supreme citizen in the state and is responsible for the welfare of all others.\nJust as we are all living beings, Kr�Qa, God, is also a living being.\nKf�Qa is not impersonal. Because we are all individual persons but our\nknowledge and opulence are limited, the impersonalists cannot adjust to\nthe idea that the Supreme, the original, unlimited cause of everything,\ncan also be a person. Because we are limited and God is unlimited, the\nMayiiviidis, or impersonalists, with their poor fund of knowledge, think\nthat God must be impersonal . Making a material comparison, they say\nthat just as the sky, which we think of as unlimited, is impersonal , if God\nis unlimited He must also be impersonal .\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0218": "Enchantment by Kr�f.la 's Glories\n\n1 99\n\nBut that is not the Vedic instruction. The Vedas instruct that God is a\nperson. Kr�r:ta is a person, and we are also persons, but the difference is\nthat He is to be worshiped whereas we are to be worshipers. The king or\npresident is a person, and the citizens are also persons, but the difference\nis that the president or king is an exalted person who should be offered all\nrespect.\nNow, why should so many persons worship one person? Because that\none person provides for the others. Eko bahuntirh yo vidadhtiti ktimtin.\nGod is one, and we are many, but He is worshiped because He provides\nfor everyone. It is God who provides food and all the other necessities of\nlife. We need water, and God has nicely arranged for oceans of water,\nwith salt mixed in to preserve it all nicely. Then, because we need drinking water, by God's arrangement the sunshine evaporates the water from\nthe ocean, takes it high in the sky, and then distributes clear, distilled\nwater. Just see how God is providing everything that everyone needs.\nEven in ordinary life the state has a heating department, lighting\ndepartment, plumbing department, and so on. Why? Because these are\namenities we require. But these arrangements are subordinate; the first\narrangement is that of God. It is God who originally supplies heat, light,\nand water. It is God who supplies the rainwater that fills our wells and\nreservoirs. Therefore the original supplier is God.\nGod is an intelligent person who knows that we need heat, light, water,\nand so on. Without water we cannot produce food. Even those who eat\nanimals cannot do so without God's arrangement, for the animal also\nmust be provided with grass before one can take it to the slaughterhouse.\nThus it is God who is supplying food, but still we are creating rebellion\nagainst Him. The word dhruk means \"rebellious. \" Those rascals who are\ngoing against the law of God are rebellious.\nThe king's duty is to act as the representative of Kr�r,a, or God. Otherwise what right does he have to take so much honor from the citizens?\nMonarchy was formerly present in every country, but because the kings\nrebelled against God and violated His laws, because they tried to usurp\nthe power of God and did not act as His representatives, the monarchies\nof the world have nearly all disappeared. The kings thought that their\nkingdoms were their personal property. \"I have so much property, such a\nbig kingdom, \" they thought. \"I am God. I am the lord of all I survey. \"\nBut that i s not actually the fact. That fact i s that everything belongs to\nGod ( iStivtisyam idarh sarvam) . Therefore the representative of God must\nbe very obedient to God, and then his position will be legitimate.\nGreedy , self-interested kings are like false spiritual masters who\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0219": "200\n\nTEACHINGS OF QUEEN KUNTi\n\nproclaim that they themselves are God. Because such false masters are\nrebellious, they have no position. A spiritual master is supposed to act\nnot as God but as the most confidential servant of God by spreading God\nconsciousness, K�Q.a consciousness. Visvanatha Cakravarti Thiikura says,\nsak�ad-dharitvena samasta-sastrair ukta�: all the sastras, the Vedic literatures, state that the spiritual master is to be honored as the Supreme\nPersonality of Godhead. Thus the idea that the spiritual master is as good\nas God is not bogus. It is stated in the sastras, and therefore those who\nare advanced in spiritual life accept this spiritual injunction ( uktas tatha\nbhavyata eva sadbhiM . Then is the spiritual master as good as God? Kintu\nprabhor ya� priya eva tasya: the spiritual master is not God, but is the confidential representative of God. The distinction is that between sevyabhagavan (he who is worshiped) and sevaka-bhagavan (he who is the\nworshiper) . The spiritual master is God, and Kr�Q.a is God, but Kr�Q.a is\nthe worshipable God whereas the spiritual master is the worshiper God.\nThe Miiyiiviidis cannot understand this. They think, \" Because the\nspiritual master has to be accepted as God and because I have become a\nspiritual master, I have become God . \" This is rebellious. Those who are\ngiven a position by God but who want to usurp His power, which\nthey actually cannot do, are rebellious fools and rascals who require\npunishment. Therefore Kuntidevi says, avani-dhrug-rajanya-varhsa-da hana: \"You descend t o kill all these rascals who rebelliously claim Your\nposition. \" When various kings or landholders are subordinate to an emperor, they sometimes rebel and refuse to pay taxes. Similarly, there are\nrebellious persons who deny the supremacy of God and declare themselves God, and Kr�Q.a's business is to kill them.\nThe word anapavarga indicates that Kr�Q.a's prowess is without\ndeterioration. This word is the opposite of the word pa varga, which refers\nto the path of material tribulation. According to Sanskrit linguistics, the\nword pa-varga also refers to the Sanskrit letters pa, pha, ba, bha, and ma.\nThus when the word pavarga is used to refer to the path of material\ntribulation, its meaning is understood through words beginning with\nthese five letters.\nThe letter pa is for parisrama, which means \"labor. \" In this material\nworld, one must work very hard to maintain oneself. In Bhagavad-gita\n(3 . 8) it is said, sarira-yatrapi ca te na prasiddhyed akarmaiJa�: \"One cannot even maintain one's own body without work. \" Kr�Q.a never advised\nArjuna, \"I am your friend, and I shall do everything. You just sit down\nand smoke gaiija. ' ' Kr�Q.a was doing everything, but still He told Arjuna,\n\"You must fight. \" Nor did Arjuna say to Kr�Q.a, \"You are my great\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0220": "Enchantment by Kmra 's Glories\n\n201\n\nfriend. Better for You to fight and let me sit down and smoke gaifja. \" No,\nthat is not Kr�Q.a consciousness. A God conscious person does not say,\n\"God, You please do everything for me and let me smoke gaifja. \"\nRather, a God conscious person must work for God. But even if one does\nnot work for the sake of God, one must work, for without work one cannot even maintain one's body. This material world, therefore, is meant\nfor parisrama, hard labor.\nEven a lion, although king of the beasts, must still look for its own prey\nin the jungle. It is said, na hi suptasya simhasya pravisanti mukhe mrgab. A\nlion cannot think, \"Since I am king of the forest, let me sleep, and all the\nanimals will come into my mouth . \" That is not possible. \"No, sir. Although you are a lion, you must go search for your food. \" Thus even the\nlion, although so powerful, must endeavor with great difficulty to find\nanother animal to eat, and similarly everyone in this material world must\nwork with great difficulty to continue his life.\nThus pa indicates parisrama, labor, and pha is for phenila, which means\n\"foam. \" While working very hard a horse foams at the mouth, and\nsimilarly human beings must also work h.ard in this way. Such hard labor,\nhowever, is vyartha, futile, and this is what is indicated by the letter ba.\nAnd bha indicates bhaya, fear. Despite working so hard, one is always\nsomewhat fearful that things will not be done as he desires. The nature of\nthe body is that it involves eating, sleeping, mating, and fearing ( aharanidra-bhaya-maithunam ca) . Although one may eat very nicely, one must\nconsider whether one is overeating, so that he will not fall sick. Thus\neven eating involves fear. A bird, while eating, looks this way and that\nway, fearful that some enemy may be coming. And for all living entities,\neverything finally ends in death, mrtyu, and this is what is indicated by\nthe letter rna.\nThus pavarga and its component letters pa, pha, ba, bha, and rna indicate hard labor (parisrama) , foam at the mouth (phenila) , frustration\n( vyartha) , fear ( bhaya) , and death ( mrtyu) . This is called pavarga, the\npath of material tribulation. Apavarga, however, indicates just the opposite - the spiritual world, where there is no labor, no foam, no frustration, no fear, and no death. Thus Kr�Q.a is known as anapavarga-virya, for\nHe shows the path to the spiritual world.\nWhy should one suffer from these five kinds of tribulation? Because\none has a material body. As soon as one accepts a material body whether it is that of a president or a common man, a demigod or a human\nbeing, an insect or a Brahma- one must go through these tribulations.\nThis is called material existence. Kf�Q.a comes, therefore, to show one\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0221": "202\n\nTEACHINGS OF QUEEN KUNTI\n\nthe path to apavarga, freedom from these tribulations, and when Kr��a\nshows this path, we should accept it.

I shall give you apavarga. \" Aharh twirh sarva-papebhyo mok$aYi$ydmi: \"I shall give you protection. \" And Kr��a has the\npower with which to fulfill this guarantee.\nKuntidevi addresses Kr��a as Govinda because He is the giver of\npleasure both to the cows and to the senses. Govindam adi-puru$arh tam\naharh bhajami. Govinda, Kr��a, is the adi-puru$a, the original person.\nAham adir hi devanam (Bg. 1 0. 2) : He is the origin even of demigods like\nBrahma, Vi��u, and Siva. People should not think that Brahma, Vi��u.\nand Siva are the origin of everything. No. Kr��a says, aham adir hi\ndevanam: \"I am the origin even of these demigods. \" Therefore we repeatedly emphasize that we worship no one but the original person (govindam adi-puru$arh tam a ham bhajami) .\nWhen Kunti prays, go-dvija-surarti-haravatara, she indicates that Govinda, Kr��a, descends to this world especially to protect the cows, the\nbrahma!las, and the devotees. The demoniac in this world are the greatest\nenemies of the cows, for they maintain hundreds and thousands of\nslaughterhouses. Although the innocent cows give milk, the most important food, and although even after death the cows give their skin for\nshoes, people are such rascals that they kill the cows, but still they want\nto be happy in this world. How sinful they are.\nWhy is cow protection- so much advocated? Because the cow is the\nmost important animal. There is no injunction that one should not eat\nthe flesh of tigers or other such animals. In the Vedic culture those who\nare meat-eaters are recommended to eat the flesh of goats, dogs, hogs, or\nother lower animals, but never the flesh of cows , the most important\nanimals. While living, the cows give important service by giving milk,\nand even after death they give service by making available their skin,\nhooves, and horns, which may be used in many ways. Nonetheless, the\npresent human society is so ungrateful that they needlessly kill these innocent cows.

Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupiida appeared in\nthis world in 1 896 in Calcutta, India. He first met his spiritual master,\nSrila Bhaktisiddhiinta Sarasvati Gosviimi, in· Calcutta in 1 922. Bhaktisiddhiinta Sarasvati, a prominent religious scholar and the founder of\nsixty-four Gau<;liya Mathas (Vedic institutes) , liked this educated young\nman and convinced him to dedicate his life to teaching Vedic knowledge.\nSrila Prabhupiida became his student, and eleven years later ( 1 933) at\nAllahabad he became his formally initiated disciple.\nAt their first meeting, in 1 9 2 2 , Srila Bhaktisiddhiinta Sarasvati Thiikura\nrequested Srna Prabhupiida to broadcast Vedic knowledge through the\nEnglish language. In the years that followed, Srila Prabhupiida wrote a\ncommentary on the Bhagavad-gftd, assisted the Gau<;liya Matha in its\nwork and, in 1 944, without assistance, started an English fortnightly\nmagazine, edited it, typed the manuscripts, and checked the galley proofs.\nHe even distributed the individual copies and struggled to maintain the\npublication. Once begun, the magazine never stopped; it is now being\ncontinued by his disciples in the West and is published in nineteen\nlanguages.\nRecognizing Srila Prabhupiida's philosophical learning and devotion,\nthe Gau<;liya Vai�Q.ava Society honored him in 1 947 with the title\n\"Bhaktivedanta.\" In 1 950, at the age of fifty-four, Srila Prabhupiida\nretired from married life, adopting the vdnaprastha (retired) order to devote more time to his studies and writing. Srila Prabhupiida traveled to\nthe holy city of Vrndiivana, where he lived in very humble circumstances\nin the historic medieval temple of Riidhii-Diimodara. There he engaged\nfor several years in deep study and writing. He accepted the renounced\norder of life (sannydsa) in 1 95 9 . At Riidhii-Diimodara, Srila Prabhupiida\nbegan work on his life's masterpiece: a multivolume translation\nof and commentary on the eighteen-thousand-verse Srfmad-Bhdgavatam\n(Bhdgavata Purd!Ja) . He also wrote Easy Journey to Other Planets.\nAfter publishing three volumes of the Bhdgavatam, Srila Prabhupiida\ncame to the United States, in 1 965 , to fulfill the mission of his spiritual\nmaster. Subsequently, His Divine Grace wrote more than sixty volumes\nof authoritative translations, commentaries, and summary studies of the\nphilosophical and religious classics of India.\nIn 1 965 , when he first arrived by freighter in New York City, Srila\nPrabhupiida was practically penniless. It was after almost a year of great\n\n207\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0225": "208\n\nTEACHINGS OF QUEEN KUNTI\n\ndifficulty that he established the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in July of 1 966. Before his passing away on November 1 4 ,\n1 97 7 , he guided the Society and saw i t grow t o a worldwide confederation\nof more than one hundred asramas, schools, temples, institutes, and farm\ncommunities.\nIn 1 96 8 , Srila Prabhupada created New Vrindaban, an experimental\nVedic community in the hills of West Virginia. Inspired by the success of\nNew Vrindaban, now a thriving farm community of more than one thousand acres, his students have since founded several similar communities\nin the United States and abroad.\nIn 1 97 2 , His Divine Grace introduced the Vedic system of primary and\nsecondary education in the West by founding the Gurukula school in\nDallas, Texas. Since then, under his supervision, his disciples have\nestablished children' s schools throughout the United States and the rest\nof the world. As of 1 97 8 , there are ten Gurukula schools worldwide, with\nthe principal educational center now located in Vrndavana, India.\nSrila Prabhupada also inspired the construction of several large international cultural centers in India. The center at Sridhama Mayapur in\nWest Bengal is the site for a planned spiritual city, an ambitious project\nfor which construction will extend over the next decade. In Vrndavana,\nIndia, is the magnificent Kr�Qa-Balarama Temple and International\nGuesthouse. There is also a major cultural and educational center in\nBombay. Other centers are planned in a dozen other important locations\non the Indian subcontinent.\nSrila Prabhupada's most significant contribution, however, is his\nbooks. Highly respected by the academic community for their authoritativeness, depth, and clarity, they are used as standard textbooks in\nnumerous college courses. His writings have been translated into twentyeight languages. The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust, established in 1 972 exclusively to publish the works of His Divine Grace, has thus become the\nworld' s largest publisher of books in the field of Indian religion and\nphilosophy.\nIn just twelve years, in spite of his advanced age, Srila Prabhupada\ncircled the globe fourteen times on lecture tours that took him to six continents. In spite of such a vigorous schedule, Srila Prabhupada continued\nto write prolifically. His writings constitute a veritable library of Vedic\nphilosophy, religion, literature, and culture.\n\n", "Teachings_of_Queen_Kunti-SCAN#p0226": "References\nThe text of Teachings of Queen Kunti is confirmed by standard Vedic authorities.

The mode of writing most widely used throughout\nIndia, however, is called devanagari, which means, literally, the writing\nused in \"the cities of the demigods. \" The devanagari alphabet consists of\nforty-eight characters, including thirteen vowels and thirty-five consonants. Ancient Sanskrit grammarians arranged the alphabet according to\npractical linguistic principles, and this order has been accepted by all\nWestern scholars. The system of transliteration used in this book conforms to a system that scholars in the last fifty years have accepted to indicate the pronunciation of each Sanskrit sound.\nThe short vowel a is pronounced like the u in but, long i like the a in\nfar, and short i like the i in pin. Long i is pronounced as in pique, short u\nas in pull, and long ii as in rule. The vowel t is pronounced like the ri in\nrim. The vowel e is pronounced as in they, ai as in aisle, o as in go, and\nau as in how. The anusvara (m) , which is a pure nasal, is pronounced like\nthe n in the French word bon, and visarga (\\t) , which is a strong aspirate,\nis pronounced as a final h sound. Thus a\\t is pronounced like aha, and i\\t\nlike ihi.\nThe guttural consonants -k, kh, g, gh , and it - are pronounced from\nthe throat in much the same manner as in English. K is pronounced as in\nkite, kh as in Eckhart, g as in give, gh as in dig-hard, and it as in sing.\nThe palatal consonants -c, ch, j , jh, and ii - are pronounced from the\npalate with the middle of the tongue. C is pronounced as in chair, ch as in\nstaunch-heart, j as in joy, jh as in hedgehog, and ii as in canyon. The\ncerebral consonants -t, th, c), c)h, and 9 - are pronounced with the tip of\nthe tongue turned up and drawn back against the dome of the palate. T is\npronounced as in tub, th as in light-heart, 4 as in dove, cJh as in red-hot,\nand 9 as in nut. The dental consonants - t , th, d, dh, and n - are pronounced in the same manner as the cerebrals, but with the forepart of the\ntongue against the teeth. The labial consonants -p, ph, b, bh, and m are pronounced with the lips. P i s pronounced a s i n pine, p h as i n uphill,\nb as in bird, bh as in rub-hard, and m as in mother. The semivowels - y ,\nr , I, and v - are pronounced a s i n yes, run, light, and vine respectively.\nThe sibilants s, ,, and s - are pronounced, respectively, as in the German\nword sprechen and the English words shine and sun.
