Vaishnava Redux

It is very important that people do not harbour or bear any ill will towards Krishna in any way.

Krishna is the incarnation of God and to harbour any bad sentiments towards him is not acceptable.

In fact if on hearing about Krishna, and his exploits, deeds, and his nature arouses any ill sentiment then it is better not to have heard about Him at all.

If out of a sense that Krishna constitutes a challenge to someone's belief in their God or other religious figures, then it is of utmost importance that the person be told not to resent Krishna. If out of a generally agnostic nature, a skeptical attitude towards religion, or a belief in science or whatever reason a person has a scoffing attitude towards Krishna then it is important that the person be told about this.

It is extremely important that no ill-feeling, jealousy, envy, resentment, ire or whatever adverse feeling be held towards Krishna.

If so it is important that the person be told that all adverse feeling towards Krishna should be restrained, and that it would have been better if the person had not heard of Krishna at all.

Having heard of Krishna and having acquired an ill-feeling of any kind, it is of utmost that the person remove any ill-feeling towards Krishna if the name and memory of Krishna is going to be retained in the person's mind.
