Lord
Risabadeva, by Haripada dasa
In
the Gita, 9, 11, Krishna says that fools make fun of Me when I
descend in human form. They do not know My transcendental nature as
Supreme Lord of all that exists.
In
relation to this verse of the Gita, in the Bhagavatam there is the
story of Lord Risabadeva, who is an incarnation of God or Krishna,
there in 5, 5, 30 it is said that Ṛiṣabhadeva began to travel
through cities, villages, mining regions, fields, valleys, gardens,
military camps, grazing lands, cowboy cabins, mountains, forests,
lodges for travelers and hermitages. Everywhere, wherever he went, he
was harassed by all kinds of ruinous people, who surrounded him like
the flies that fly around the body of an elephant that leaves the
forest. Wherever he went, they threatened him, beat him, urinated on
him and spit on him. Sometimes people threw stones, excrement and
dirt at them, and sometimes they ventured before Him. In that way,
people insulted Him with bad words, and caused him great
difficulties; but He did not worry about it, for he understood that
the body has no other destiny. He was absorbed on the spiritual
plane, and from His glorious spiritual position, He did not care
about all those material insults. In other words, I understood
perfectly that matter and spirit are different, and I had no bodily
concept. Thus, without getting irritated with anyone, he walked alone
around the world.
Before
discarding Srila Prabupada he was being poisoned, you just have to
imagine that God or Krishna and His representatives do all those
things, that they will do to us, that's why Srila Prabhupada always
said that preaching Krishna consciousness is nothing easy, and that
all the chaos in the world now is because there are no devotees of
God or Krishna, that is the only crisis.
