At the crossroads
Twelve moments where a life could turn more than one way. Choose the question you would bring to the moment, then see what the text itself shows. There is no score: this is a way of reading slowly.
Ajāmila · SB 6.1
Ajāmila cries “Nārāyaṇa”
A person who lived badly calls his son’s name at death; the Viṣṇudūtas intervene.
Which conclusion is supported by the ensuing narrative?
These are possible readings to think with, not words of the text. Choose one to see what the story shows.
Each moment's short description, the lessons, questions and pairings are study aids drawn from the cited chapter, not words of the scripture. The verse shown with each moment is Śrīla Prabhupāda's translation, exactly; his purport is always the final word.
