Re: Bhishma's death

Nityaananda ! Gauraanga ! Hare Krishna !

Thank you for such wonderful answers Srinath. I have certainly been helped by such wonderful answers but left with some more queries.

I understand that Bhishma was enjoying spiritual bliss, I also understand that devotees of the Lord are ready to undertake any suffering for the Lord even if it is to go to hell. However I am talking from the Lord's point of view. Though the devotees are ready to suffer for the Lord, the Lord never lets His devotees suffer. Still in this case Bhishma suffered so much just before his death. I understand that the Pandavs and Draupati also suffered a lot but that suffering was to bring them much closer to the Lord. When distress comes to bring us closer to the Lord then it is certainly good but here in this case of Bhishma and Abhimanyu the suffering was just before death. This causes a lot of pain to my heart.

ys,
Mihir.
