TRANSLATION — TRADUCCION
 | Gradually Mahārāja Bharata became very affectionate toward the deer. He began to raise it and maintain it by giving it grass. He was always careful to protect it from the attacks of tigers and other animals. When it itched, he petted it, and in this way he always tried to keep it in a comfortable condition. He sometimes kissed it out of love. Being attached to raising the deer, Mahārāja Bharata forgot the rules and regulations for the advancement of spiritual life, and he gradually forgot to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead. After a few days, he forgot everything about his spiritual advancement. | | | Poco a poco, Mahārāja Bharata se fue encariñando con el ciervo. Lo criaba y lo mantenía dándole hierba. Siempre se preocupaba de que estuviera protegido del ataque de los tigres y otros animales. Cuando el ciervo sentía picor, él lo acariciaba; de ese modo, trataba de que siempre se sintiera bien. El amor que sentía por él era tan grande que a veces lo besaba. Apegado a criar al ciervo, Mahārāja Bharata olvidó las reglas y regulaciones para el avance en la vida espiritual, y poco a poco llegó a olvidarse de adorar a la Suprema Personalidad de Dios. En pocos días había olvidado por completo todo lo relativo a su avance espiritual. | |
PURPORT — SIGNIFICADO
| | From this we can understand how we have to be very cautious in executing our spiritual duties by observing the rules and regulations and regularly chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra. If we neglect doing this, we will eventually fall down. We must rise early in the morning, bathe, attend maṅgala-ārati, worship the Deities, chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, study the Vedic literatures and follow all the rules prescribed by the ācāryas and the spiritual master. If we deviate from this process, we may fall down, even though we may be very highly advanced. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (18.5): | | | Este verso nos enseña que en la puesta en práctica de nuestros deberes espirituales tenemos que ser muy cuidadosos, observando las reglas y regulaciones y cantando el mahā-mantra Hare Kṛṣṇa con regularidad. Si pasamos esto por alto, con el tiempo caeremos. Debemos levantarnos temprano, bañarnos, asistir a maṅgala-ārati, adorar a las Deidades, cantar el mantra Hare Kṛṣṇa, estudiar las Escrituras védicas, y seguir todas las reglas prescritas por los ācāryas y el maestro espiritual. Si nos desviamos de ese proceso, podemos caer, aunque seamos muy avanzados. Como se explica en elBhagavad-gītā (18.5): | | | | | yajña-dāna-tapaḥ-karma
na tyājyaṁ kāryam eva tat
yajño dānaṁ tapaś caiva
pāvanāni manīṣiṇām | | | yajña-dāna-tapaḥ-karma
na tyājyaṁ kāryam eva tat
yajño dānaṁ tapaś caiva
pāvanāni manīṣiṇām | | | | | “Acts of sacrifice, charity and penance are not to be given up but should be performed. Indeed, sacrifice, charity and penance purify even the great soul.” | | | «Acts of sacrifice, charity and penance are not to be given up but should be performed. Indeed, sacrifice, charity and penance purify even the great soul». | | | | | Even if one is in the renounced order, he should never give up the regulative principles. He should worship the Deity and give his time and life to the service of Kṛṣṇa. He should also continue following the rules and regulations of austerity and penance. These things cannot be given up. One should not think oneself very advanced simply because one has accepted the sannyāsa order. The activities of Bharata Mahārāja should be carefully studied for one’s spiritual advancement. | | | Even if one is in the renounced order, he should never give up the regulative principles.
