Srimad Bhagavatam 3.10.27-29

Описание: The meeting covered a study session of Srimad Bhagavatam, 3rd Canto, Chapter 10, verses 27-29, discussing the different types of creations by Lord Brahma.

The main topics included:

1. Nine primary creations - the last three being: trees and plants (low consciousness but feel pain), animals and birds with different types of hooves, and human beings who struggle hard in passion and think they are happy in the material world.

2. The tenth creation - eight varieties of demigods including: forefathers (Pitras), demons (Asuras), Gandharvas and Apsaras (angels), Yakshas and Rakshasas, Siddhas, Charanas and Vidyadharas, Bhutas, Pretas and Pisachas, and superhuman beings.

3. The four Kumaras who fall into both Vaikrita (created by Brahma) and Prakrita (natural creation) categories.

4. Discussion that while higher planetary beings have superior culture and abilities, devotional service can only be properly cultivated in human form, making human birth very rare and valuable.

The session included Sanskrit recitation practice by multiple devotees, followed by a letter from Srila Prabhupada dated March 5, 1971 from Bombay, encouraging the idea of spreading Krishna consciousness using a boat traveling from city to city along coastal areas in South America.

Questions were raised about why Brahma created demons and negative entities, with explanation that Brahma gives bodies according to the consciousness of living entities based on their previous activities.
