Thread: praying to lord krishna

    praying to lord krishna

    i was told by some random astrologer that i shouldnt be praying to lord krishna. he said that the reason im going through a hard time in life is because i pray to lord krishna. he said that im disturbing lord krishna by praying to him. if thats the case then why did lord krishna say say that i should pray to him in the gita. the reason that i pray to him is cause i had alot of question about spirituality, life and so on. when i read the gita all the question i had were answered for the first time. which led me to belive at how special and powerful the gita really is. unfortunatly i have had people come into my life and try to change my opinion on this. can anyone here help clear this up for me.

    Without knowing your specifics, I think its time you looked for a new astrologer. Rarely, if ever have I heard of a religious person asking someone else NOT to pray. I'm sure Krishna is beyond you hurting him somehow.

    Best wishes.

    I'm sorry, but you're just throwing hearsay around.

    - Who's this astrologer?
    - What are his spiritual practices?
    - I'm sure he had a reason to say that, but the way you present in an oversimplified fashion.

    And I'm not sure what person with spiritual knowledge would say that in their right mind.

    PS: EM beated me to it being clearer and more succinct.

    Namaste,

    - Who's this astrologer?
    - What are his spiritual practices?
    - I'm sure he had a reason to say that, but the way you present in an oversimplified fashion.
    Pietro is asking some valid questions. Maybe you could provide us with some more detail? Where did you meet this astrologer? Did you ask for a consultation, or did he just venture this information to you without properly consulting your birth chart? His advice that you should stop praying to Krishna because you are "disturbing Him" seems highly unusual. If these words make no sense to you, this is probably for a good reason.

    Re: praying to lord krishna

    Did he take your birth details and make elaborate calculations and took the time to interpretate the results? Was it even a Hindu astrologer? Maybe you should get a second opinion.

    - Who's this astrologer? i dont know who he is he just came up to me and started telling me that because i pray only to lord krishna that i am disturbing him, and because of this lord krishna is making my life difficult. he saod that i should be praying to the demigods instead.
    - What are his spiritual practices? i really dont know. i just know he is tamil. i only knew him a short while, really he was a costumer at a shop i worked at, and he just started telling me these things. i didnt keep in touch with him, for the simple reason that all what he said didnt make sense at all, if i shouldnt be praying to lord krishna that why did he say that i should be praying to him in the gita.

    Namaste,

    I am still a little confused on your answers. Was anything he said about you accurate? Why are you so concerned by what this man said? For all you know, he could have been bluffing. Who is to say he is an astrologer? Did he tell you so himself?

    he did say some stuff that were accurate. but he did not have any of my birth details. i am just concerned cause why would some say somthing like that in the first place. he told me he was an astrologer, i think he was trying to convince me that i could learn astrology, he even brought his son in an showed that how he taught his son how to do it. i dont know. i just want to know why would anyone say somthing like that.
