A Brief Blip on the Screen of Eternity
Uploaded from Copenhagen, Denmark |

In
the grand scheme of things what happens in this life and
in this world is not so important as long as you are
fixed in Krishna consciousness. Whether you are rich or
poor, powerful or weak, famous or unknown, ultimately
does not make any difference as long as you can remember
Krishna at the time of death. This entire life is
nothing more than a brief blip on the screen of
eternity. Compared to eternal time it simply comes and
goes as a momentary flash only.

Question: If One's Religion Allows Meat Eating? |
|
Please accept my humble and respectful obeisances at
your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Thank you for your wonderful and insightful emails. I am
sorry to worry you with my query.
Just a question regarding the other “faiths” – Muslim,
Christian, Jews etc. We know for a fact that they are
meat eaters (including eating of the sacred cow). What
is their position in their next lifetime? Do they go
down the spiritual ladder or do they elevate in terms of
holding them to their teachings? Many of them argue that
meat eating is allowed and are adamant that God has
created animals for satisfying their tongues.

Answer: All Animal Eaters
Become Animals |
|
No matter what one's
religious belief may be, if he has killed an animal or
paid someone else to kill an animal, as in the case of
most flesh eaters, he must himself be killed by that
same animal. Therefore in Sanskrit the word for flesh is
mamsa. Mam means "me," and sa means "he." So mamsa means
that as I am eating an animal, that animal will in
future eat me. This exchange will occur with each animal
that one has eaten. Just as the law of gravity works
equally on everyone no matter what is one's religion,
the law of karma also works equally on everyone without
regard to their religion. This is why even the Bible
commands its followers not to kill.
