¿Cambiando los libros de Srila Prabhupada?

(Acabamos de deleitarnos con una narración sobre la manera en que ocurrió la publicación original del Bhagavad-gita Tal Como Es, de Srila Prabhupada, allá en 1969.

A principios de los 1980s Jayadvaita Swami empezó a reeditar este libro y varios más del Bhaktivedanta Book Trust. Srila Prabhupada nunca dio autorización para efectuar dichas reediciones. Sin embargo, era la época de los 11 Acharyas arrogantes, y se sintieron con el derecho de tomar la obra de Srila Prabhupada y "mejorarla".

Jayadvaita defiende a capa y espada el trabajo que hizo. Y la defensa la hace prácticamente solo, porque quienes lo impulsaron originalmente a profanar la obra de Srila Prabhupada ya se blupearon y/o murieron: Ramesvara, Jayatirtha, Tamal Krishna y Bhagavan.

El texto que presentamos a continuación aborda este tema de los cambios editoriales hechos a los libros de Sirla Prabhupada.)

¿Quién Está Cambiando Los Libros de Srila Prabhupada?

Vaishnava-dharma dasa

Jayadvaita Swami tomó la iniciativa por determinación propia de “revisar, corregir y aumentar” los libros de Srila Prabhupada. La GBC nunca fue consultada, pero lo dejó continuar.

En el 2006 Jayadvaita quería que se imprimieran en minúsculas los pronombres personales y posesivos refiriéndose a Sri Krishna, a Sus expansiones, a Simati Radharani y al Señor Balarama, tanto en las publicaciones de los libros de Srila Prabhupada como en la revista BTG –De Vuelta al Supremo. De hecho ya había empezado a hacer tales cambios en la revista BTG, de esa manera se dieron cuenta los devotos, lo que inició una polémica para revertir esa acción de Jayadvaita.

Según Jayadvaita esta política era para hacer nuestra literatura aceptable a los círculos eruditos, sin embargo ni siquiera pensó que los Profesores PHDs –Profesores eruditos con doctorados en diferentes círculos universitarios, ya habían dado sus propias reseñas favorables y con mucho respeto a Srila Prabhupada. Por lo tanto la conclusión de Jayadvaita es muy boba.

Pero Jayadvaita da un paso más, en falso, llegando a la ofensa. Él usó el mismo argumento que otros tontos que han querido restar autoridad a Srila Prabhupada, diciendo que podría ser una decisión circunstancial y no definitiva.

“…Aunque naturalmente le concedemos a Srila Prabhupada ser el ejemplo en muchas aéreas, necesitamos preguntarnos si los acuerdos tipográficos es una de ellas. Y ya que la conversación de 1969 acerca de los pronombres fue corta, necesitamos preguntarnos si debemos considerarla una instrucción definitiva o un comentario circunstancial”.

Que estupidez, ¿y él está editando los libros de Srila Prabhupada?

Srila Prabhupada establece los estándares de redacción

En la actualidad muchos eruditos, dentro y fuera de la India, han adoptados los estándares establecidos por Srila Prabhupada en la redacción de traducciones de la obra literaria de los Vedas, expresiones tales como: Krishna la Suprema Personalidad de Dios, y el uso de mayúsculas para Sus pronombres personales y posesivos respectivos.

Hayagriva: Bueno, yo considero que al referirnos a Krishna, siempre debemos usar 'E' mayúscula. [Él, en vez de él.]
Prabhupada: Especialmente. Sí. Especialmente para Krishna, tú puedes [usarlos].
Hayagriva: Y en el caso de Radha, 'E' mayúscula. [Ella, en vez de ella.]
Prabhupada: Pero Balarama no es diferente de Krishna.
Satsvarupa: Entonces también lleva 'E' mayúscula.
Hayagriva: Entonces 'Él' es con 'E' mayúscula. Pero entonces, vamos a empezar.
Prabhupada: No, no. Hay que limitarlo a estos tres casos. Eso será suficiente.

(1969 Discusión con el personal del BTG, 24 de diciembre, 1969, Boston)

Hay que recordar que Hayagriva fue uno de los primeros editores y que era profesor universitario de Literatura Inglesa. En cambio Jayadvaita no alcanza esa calificación.

El "Manual del Estilo" de la University of Chicago Press
(Prensa de la Universidad de Chicago)

Jayadvaita se refugió, por así decirlo, en la publicación de la Universidad de Chicago, El Manual del Estilo de esa universidad. Este manual se puede consultar por internet.

Jayadvaita dice: “Chicago escribe con minúsculas esos pronombres…”

Pero no es el criterio definitivo. La siguiente es una cita de dicho manual:

Pregunta: ¿Cuál es la forma apropiada del pronombre para usarse al referirnos a Dios? Me enseñaron que el pronombre “Él” se escribe con mayúscula cuando se refiere a “Dios”. Sin embargo, busqué en varios manuales de gramática y no pude encontrar ninguna información sobre este tema. ¿Han cambiado las reglas? [Antecedent:Gram. the word, phrase, or clause to which a pronoun refers].

Respuesta: Chicago escribe con minúscula esos pronombres, pero no es incorrecto escribirlos con mayúsculas, especialmente si se está escribiendo para un público lector religioso o cualquier otro que pueda tomar el escribirlos con minúsculas como una señal de falta de respeto. En asuntos de estilo, en contraste con los de gramática, hay pocas respuestas de lo que es correcto y lo que no lo es. Diferentes casas editoriales siguen diferentes patrones de estilo a fin de hacer sus publicaciones consistentes.

First Days in Shimla

May 31, 2009

Book distribution report by Anita dasi

With half the books we started with, we packed up and moved on to Shimla. When we were in Haridwar for Kumbha mela we met one family from Shimla. They invited us to stay with them. For weeks I have been talking to the mother and her three teenaged girls on the phone. The youngest daughter named Sakshi had her birthday on May 28. I promised we would be there for the party. We arrived on the evening so we could be rested for the party.

I wish I had more birthday parties in this style growing up. Family, neighbors and friends came for bhajans. Of course they sing bhajans to many of the demigods. In the mountain region they mostly devotees of Lord Siva and his shakti, but because since we were there they felt inspired to sing many hindi bhajans about Sri Sri Radha and Krsna. We lead some bhajans and maha mantra. Actually when we switched to Radha Krsna bhajans a huge wind came up, dust was blowing everywhere, the power went out, the altar they made for Lord Siva fell, rain started, and lighting came. About half the people went downstairs (we were signing on the roof) but for those stayed it was quite and experience. We just kept signing and signing, absorbed in the bhajans despite everything.



The next day we went with the three girls of the family and their cousin to the Mall. The Mall was built by the British, it’s a beautiful area to walk along the top of the hill in Shimla. Many tourists and locals are roaming through out the Mall.


Not only did the girls distribute the books, but they ran into some of their friends from school who also helped distribute books. In less than two hours we distributed around 150 books. We gave them all a free book for helping.



Yesterday the family took us to visit their village named Kotkhai and a place called Giri Ganga. We stopped a few places along the way to meet many family and friends. Then we had to hire a truck to drive the last steep rocky narrow track to Giri Ganga. Durvas Rsi had Ganga in a kamandalu. He sat way up on this mountain to meditate, then a bird came which knocked the kamandalu over. Since then Ganga devi has flowed out of this mountain.





On the way home, we stopped for dinner at their aunties home. Actually I met her also in Haridwar with the rest of the family. She and her husband visit Vrndavana form time to time and they are Krsna bhaktas. After sampling the local preparation called sidu (a steamed stuffed bread roll), we sang bhajans together. We sang “Jaya Radha, Jaya Krsna, Jaya Vrndavan” and explained how this song reminds us of Vraja Mandal parikrama and what parikram is like. We invited them to come for parikrama and they said they would. I hope they make it.


Radheee ...

Gopi-gita — The Gopis’ Song of Separation © Copyright 2009 Gaudiya Vedanta Publications

Excerpt

Gopi-gita is part of rasa-panca-adhyaya, the five chapters of Srimad-Bhagavatam that relate rasa-lila.

The body has five kinds of life-airs (panca-prana) residing in the heart, and among these five, one is most vital. The twelve cantos of Srimad-Bhagavatam are likened to twelve parts of a body. The Tenth Canto is the heart of that body. Within that heart, the five chapters that constitute rasa-panca-adhyaya are its five life-airs, and among them, Gopi-gita is the foremost.

We begin our discussion of Gopi-gita by remembering the chapter in Srimad-Bhagavatam that describes the gopis’ worship of the goddess Katyayani-devi to attain Krishna as their husband. The first verse of this chapter states:

sri-suka uvaca

hemante prathame masi

nanda-vraja-kamarikah

cerur havisyam bhunjanah

katyayany-arcana-vratam

Srimad-Bhagavatam (10.22.1)

Srila Sukadeva Gosvami said, “During the first month of the winter season, the young, unmarried girls of Gokula observed the vow of worshipping goddess Katyayani. For the entire month they ate only unspiced khichri.”

The gopis who observed the vow to worship Katyayani were young and unmarried. What, then, was Sri Krishna age at this time? Krishna had left Gokula at the age of three and a half. According to Srila Vyasadeva and Srila Sukadeva Gosvami, He was seven years old when He lifted the mountain, Giriraja Govardhana, on the little finger of His left hand. After He lifted Giriraja, all the elders and their priests gathered together and told Nanda Baba, “You should not treat Krishna as if He were your son. He is actually not your son. He may be a demigod, or perhaps He is God, or someone like God. We have heard that Narayana Himself has come in the form of Krishna, and perhaps it is true. So you should not treat Him like an ordinary boy. Do not bind His hands, and do not chastise or punish Him. He is only seven years old, and yet He lifted a mountain like Govardhana. How is that possible? This is indeed mysterious.”

“Oh,” Nanda Baba laughed. “I have heard that gopas only become mature and intelligent at the age of eighty. They cannot properly decide anything before then, because their minds are not fixed. Krishna is just an ordinary boy.

“God has far more good qualities than even the perfected saints. Such saints do not become angry, and they are not disturbed by hunger, thirst, or any other material distress. They do not steal or tell lies.

“Krishna tells lies. He weeps and becomes angry. He plays tricks on people, and He is naughty in so many other ways. He sometimes cries for butter and sugar candy. If He does not get what He wants, He becomes furious and hurls all the items in our home onto the ground, and then scatters them here and there.

“This is conclusive proof that He is not God. In any case, even if you would insist that He is God, He is still my son, so I will admonish and punish Him and treat Him as a father should treat his child.”

Nanda Baba continued to laugh at the notion that Krishna is God; then Yogamaya came, and by her influence, everyone present forgot this idea.

This incident took place during the month of Kartika, when Sri Krishna was seven years old, and it was just after Kartika that the gopis worshiped Katyayani.

The Book

This celebrated Sanskrit classic of India reveals the purpose of human life and the nature of pure spiritual love. Its divine poetry was originally sung by the young cowherd-maidens (gopis) of Vraja to their beloved Sri Krishna, God Himself, while searching for Him in the autumn moonlight on the banks of the sacred river Yamuna. Concealing Himself from their sight, He listened in adoration and wonder to their expression of amorous love for Him.

This exquisite and authoritative edition of Gopi-gita is yet another of Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja’s invaluable gifts to humanity. Enlightening and thoughtprovoking, it illuminates the glories of the transcendental maidens of Vraja, and especially of Srimati Radharani, the Supreme Feminine Personality and the embodiment of the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna’s pleasure potency.

“I repeatedly offer my respects to the dust from the feet of the women of Nanda Maharaja’s cowherd village. When these gopis loudly chant the glories of Sri Krishna, the vibration purifies the three worlds.”
— Srimad-Bhagavatam (10.47.63)

About the Author Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja took his divine birth in the village of Tewaripur near the bank of the sacred Ganges River in the state of Bihar, India in the year 1921. His birth name was Sriman Narayana Tiwari. Being born in a very religious family of Vedic priests, from childhood he had the opportunity to regularly attend kirtans and spiritual discourses. In his early twenties he met with his divine master Om Visnupada Sri Srimad Bhakti Prajnana Kesava Gosvami Maharaja, who is one of the foremost leading disciples of the renowned Om Visnupada Sri Srimad Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada. Ever since that first meeting he has served his Gurudeva, who gave him the name Sri Gaura Narayana brahmacari, dedicating his entire body, mind and words to the service of the devotees of the Lord, earning the title ‘Bhakta-bandhava’ which means ‘friend of the devotees.’
	Service to his Gurudeva Srila Maharaja was requested by his Gurudeva to translate the books of Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura, a contemporary master in the Vaisnava tradition, from Bengali into his native language, Hindi. He has carried out this request by translating some of the Thakura’s most prominent books including Jaiva Dharma, Caitanya-siksamrta, Bhakti-tattva-viveka, Vaisnava-siddhanta-mala and many more. These books, as well as his translations and commentaries of other prominent acaryas in the lineage are presently being translated into English and other languages by his followers and students. To date, he has translated and published over eighty books in Hindi, and over fifty books in English. Many of his English books have now been translated into other languages, including Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian, Portuguese, and several Indian languages.
	The Hare Krishna movement A major event in the life of Srila Narayana Gosvami Maharaja was his profound relationship with Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja, known throughout the world as Srila Prabhupada, the famous preacher of Gaudiya Vaisnavism and Founder-Acarya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. In the early 50’s, Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja came to reside at Mathura in Sri Kesavaji Gaudiya Matha, on the invitation of his god-brother, Srila Bhakti Prajnana Kesava Gosvami Maharaja, remaining there for some months. Sharing regular devotional exchanges and deep discussions of Vaisnava siddhanta with him, Srila Narayana Maharaja deepened his intimate relationship with Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja during this time period, regarding him as both his siksa (instructing)-guru and bosom friend.

Europe & UK £10.00 India £6.00 Australia / Asia £14.00 North/South America £14.00	When Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja went to preach in the West and succeeded in starting the first Radha-Krishna temple in America, Srila Narayana Maharaja sent him the first mrdanga drums and karatalas that he would be using for sankirtana. Toward the end of his manifest stay in this world, he requested Srila Narayana Maharaja several times to kindly give his association to his western disciples and help them to understand the deep truths of the Vaisnava philosophy in the line of Srila Rupa Gosvami. Ongoing world mission For three decades since Srila Prabhupada’s departure from the vision of this world in November 1977, Srila Narayana Maharaja has been unwaveringly carrying out this final request, by providing insightful guidance and loving shelter to all who come to him seeking it. Through the medium of his English books and extensive world touring, he is now giving his association and divine realizations to Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja’s followers and all other sincere searchers of truth throughout the globe. Although he is over 88 years of age, he regularly travels throughout India and abroad, preaching the glories of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Sri Sri Radha-Krishna, and the true glory of ISKCON’s founder-acarya Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja and the entire Vaisnava lineage. In 2009, the year of the publication of his Gopi-gita discourses, Srila Narayana Gosvami Maharaja completed his thirtieth world preaching tour. He is recognized internationally as the spiritual leader of Vedic culture, Hindu sanatana-dharma, Vaisnava etiquette, daivi-varnasrama, and bhagavat-bhajana. Srila Maharaja continues to demonstrate and exemplify the unadulterated life of utter dedication and pure, loving service to his Gurudeva, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and the Divine Couple, Sri Sri Radha-Krishna. As Their intimate servitor, he continues to illuminate the path for those who wish to discover and dive deeply into the ecstatic ocean of Radha-dasyam, service to the radiantly beautiful lotus feet of Sri Krishna’s dearly beloved, Srimati Radhika.
