TRANSLATION TRADUCCION
| Although Pṛṣadhra had committed the sin unknowingly, his family priest, Vasiṣṭha, cursed him, saying, “In your next life you shall not be able to become a kṣatriya. Instead, you shall take birth as a śūdra because of killing the cow.” | | | Aunque Pṛṣadhra había cometido el pecado inconscientemente, el sacerdote de su familia, Vasiṣṭha, le maldijo diciendo: «Por haber matado una vaca, en tu siguiente vida no podrás ser kṣatriya, sino que nacerás como śūdra». | |
PURPORT SIGNIFICADO
| It appears that Vasiṣṭha was not free from tamo-guṇa, the mode of ignorance. As the family priest or spiritual master of Pṛṣadhra, Vasiṣṭha should have taken Pṛṣadhra’s offense very lightly, but instead Vasiṣṭha cursed him to become a śūdra. It is the duty of a family priest not to curse a disciple but to give him relief through the performance of some sort of atonement. Vasiṣṭha, however, did just the opposite. Therefore Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that he was durmati; in other words, his intelligence was not very good. | | | Parece ser que Vasiṣṭha no estaba libre de la modalidad de la ignorancia, tamo-guṇa. Como sacerdote familiar o maestro espiritual de Pṛṣadhra, Vasiṣṭha no debía haber dado importancia a la ofensa de Pṛṣadhra; sin embargo, le maldijo a nacer śūdra. El deber del sacerdote familiar no es maldecir a su discípulo, sino liberarle de la reacción mediante alguna práctica expiatoria. Vasiṣṭha, sin embargo, hizo todo lo contrario. Por esa razón, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura dice que era durmati; en otras palabras, no tenía mucha inteligencia. | | | << Previous Anterior | Next Siguiente >>
