Epilogueyasmin grhe pandu putra likhyate devaki vratam na tatra mrta niskrantir na garbha patanam tatha na ca vyadhi bhayam tatra bhaved iti matam mama na vaidhavyam na daurbhagyam na dambhah kalaho grhe O son of Pandu, in that house where discussions of My appearance from the womb of Devaki takes place, and are kept in the form of a book, no son will be born dead, and there will be no fear of miscarriage, disease, or widowhood, as well as no misfortune, pride, or quarrel.(Hari Bhakti Vilasa, 15.293-294)


The desire for progeny, without mentioning gender, is in many other books of the Rigveda, such as the hymn 10.85.37.

Madhudvisa dasa My first contact with a Hare Krishna was a most merciful Mataji in Oxford Street, London who sold me a "Higher Taste" cook book in 1984 while I was on holidays there. I started seriously reading Srila Prabhupada's books in Australia 1985 and by 1986 Srila Prabhupada had convinced me "Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead" and "we should surrender to Krishna."I joined the Hare Krishnas in Perth, Western Australia in 1986. Since then I have been chanting Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare, reading and distributing Srila Prabhupada's books and preaching as much as I can.That's my life and full-time occupation now really. I like it more than anything I've ever experienced before. Srila Prabhupada's books are so amazing... Even after reading them all many times they're still fresh and new. They are truly transcendental!That's it really. Now I'm just hankering to once again see the world chant Hare Krishna, dance and feast and float away in the ecstasy of Lord Caitanya's Sankirtana movement as it did in Srila Prabhupada's physical presence. Let the whole world drown in the ecstatic flood of love of Krishna! 2ff7e9595c
