  • Questions and Answers with His Holiness Suhotra Swami
    DANDA 1995 Questions and Answers with His Holiness Suhotra Swami The name of the conference is: (Have) Danda (Will Travel) ENMITY IN THE SPIRTUAL WORLD Question from Aprameya dd January 11, 1995 Recently in the text 60742 - Jiva strategy you quoted the following from Srila Prabhupada's book "Reincarnation Through Wisdom": "Although He is the source of unlimited potencies, He eternally exists in His transcendental, personal form. This form manifests in three aspects, namely, as He sees Himself, as a loving devotee sees Him, and as He is seen by His competitors and enemies." Than you explain that "that was a very clear indication that competition and enmity toward the Lord begins on the eternal platform in relationship with His "transcendental personal form". Is it to be understood that the competition and enmity are existing in Goloka Vrndavana, but how is it possible if as I know, even the slightest envy causes one's fall down from the spiritual world? Or the actual explanation is that this seeming enmity is not real but it is simply like a role in the Krsna's pastimes? Answer by Suhotra Swami January 12, 1995 There is envy and enmity in Goloka Vrndavana, for instance between the two wings of gopis headed by Srimati Radharani and Srimati Candravali respectively. But this is envy and enmity in pure love of Krsna. It pleases Krsna. It does not displease Him. Therefore this envy and enmity is transcendental. It arises from an attitude of service to Krsna. In the quote you've cited from Renunciation Through Wisdom, Srila Prabhupada distinguishes between the way the loving devotees see the Lord and the way His enemies and competitors see Him.

  • SYNAXARION, COPTO-ARABIC, List of Saints Used in the Coptic Church
    (CE:2171b-2190a) SYNAXARION, COPTO-ARABIC, list of saints used in the Coptic church. [This entry consists of two articles, Editions of the Synaxarion and The List of Saints.] Editions of the Synaxarion This book, which has become a liturgical book, is very important for the history of the Coptic church. It appears in two forms: the recension from Lower Egypt, which is the quasi-official book of the Coptic church from Alexandria to Aswan, and the recension from Upper Egypt. Egypt has long preserved this separation into two Egypts, Upper and Lower, and this division was translated into daily life through different usages, and in particular through different religious books. This book is the result of various endeavors, of which the Synaxarion itself speaks, for it mentions different usages here or there. It poses several questions that we cannot answer with any certainty: Who compiled the Synaxarion, and who was the first to take the initiative? Who made the final revision, and where was it done? It seems evident that the intention was to compile this book for the Coptic church in imitation of the Greek list of saints, and that the author or authors drew their inspiration from that work, for several notices are obviously taken from the Synaxarion called that of Constantinople. The reader may have recourse to several editions or translations, each of which has its advantages and its disadvantages. Let us take them in chronological order. The oldest translation (German) is that of the great German Arabist F. Wüstenfeld, who produced the edition with a German translation of part of al-Maqrizi's Khitat, concerning the Coptic church, under the title Macrizi's Geschichte der Copten (Göttingen, 1845).

The bravery of the saintly soldier was revealed after he, with the help of God, killed a giant serpent living on a precipice in the outskirts of Euchaita.
