ШБ 4.21.48 Могущество духовного лидерства (21.05.2026)

SB 4.21.48 The saintly brahmanas addressed Prithu Maharaja as follows: O best of warriors, father of this planet, we wish you a long life, for your devotion to the infallible Supreme Lord, the master of the universe, knows no bounds. Commentary: Prita Maharaja possessed unwavering faith in the Lord and was His great devotee, and therefore the saintly sages present in the assembly blessed him with a long life. Everyone's lifespan is predetermined, but if one is fortunate enough to become a devotee, he can live beyond his allotted time. It is not uncommon for yogis to die when they choose to, not when forced to do so by the laws of material nature. On the other hand, it is said that a devotee, by his unconditional devotion to the Lord, lives eternally. Kirti yasya sa jivati: "He who leaves good memories lives eternally." Naturally, these words primarily apply to a devotee of the Supreme Lord. While conversing with Ramananda Raya, Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu asked him, "Who is most famed?" Ramananda Raya replied that the greatest fame is achieved by one who is known as a great devotee of the Lord, because a devotee not only attains eternal life on the Vaikuntha planets but also leaves eternal memories here in the material world.
