https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4 Main Points:  1 God is One & so Krishna and Shiva are One, they are two different forms of One God https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=0 2 There's a story in the puranas that Shiv came as Radha & Parvati came as krishna to mrityu lok https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=24 3 Parvati understands the reason why her husband Lord Shiv wears this mundamaal this garland of heads of beautiful women https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=61 4 Shiv tells Parvati that he is immortal, Parvati also wanted to become immortal, so Shiv said alright, you have to hear this Amar Katha from me https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=188 5 Lord Rama came to visit Shiva and requested him to marry Parvati https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=570 6 Nine Rishis, the nine yogeshwars, they went to test Parvati as to how determined she was to marry Shiv https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=651 7 Brahma said if there is a child born to Shiv and Parvati, that child can kill Tarakasur, the demon rakshas & how Kamdev, the cupid was killed by Shiv https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=780 8 The wedding barat of Shiv  https://youtu.be/HMul-53iIN4&t=932 Transcript 0:00 Bhagawan is one 0:05 and say there is one 0:11 Brahama so there is one Rudra that means 0:15 that Krishna and Shiva are 0:17 one okay there are no two Gods there is 0:21 one God they are two different forms of 0:24 one God there's a story in the puranas 0:27 that Shiv once told Parvati that Parvati 0:31 let's go to mrityu lok for a walk to do some 0:34 leelas and Parvati said my Lord why do 0:37 you want to go there we've been there 0:39 before Shiv said this time we will go 0:42 differently so I will go as Radha 0:46 and you go as 0:47 Krishna so Shiv came down as Radha and 0:50 Parvati came down as Krishna how will 0:53 you understand this, well Bhagawan is one 0:57 they are all His different forms 1:01 there is a story in the 1:04 puranas 1:07 that Vamdev  1:10 Maharaj the guru of mother 1:14 Parvati he asked her 1:18 Parvati your husband Lord 1:22 shiv wears this mundamaal this garland of 1:27 heads of beautiful women 1:31 have you never asked him whose heads are 1:36 these he invoked jealousy in Parvati the 1:41 beautiful women's heads that your 1:43 husband is wearing as a 1:46 Garland so Parvati became very curious 1:50 she went and ask Lord 1:53 Shiv my dear husband who are these heads 1:57 that you wear so close to your 2:01 heart Lord Shiv avoided the 2:05 question so Parvati’s curiosity 2:09 increased she said please tell 2:13 Me, Shiv kept avoiding for 3 days until 2:17 Parvati was so 2:20 agitated so Lord Shiv said Parvati why 2:23 does it concern you so much she said why 2:27 should it not concern me you are my 2:29 husband and you're wearing the heads of 2:31 these beautiful women as 2:34 garlands so please you have to clarify 2:38 whose heads are 2:41 these Lord Shiv said 2:44 Parvati these are your 2:49 heads what do you mean each time you 2:52 reject your 2:54 body each time you give up your body I 2:58 am so attached to you I preserved that 3:01 head and I have made a garland out of 3:05 it Parvati was 3:08 pacified but she said my 3:11 Lord I keep giving up my body you never 3:15 give up your body what is the 3:19 matter Lord Shiv said Parvati the reason 3:23 is I have got the 3:26 amarata this Immortal story 3:30 by virtue of that I'm Immortal I don't 3:33 need to give up my 3:34 body Parvati said my Lord if you have 3:38 this Amar Katha please give it to me as 3:42 well so when she requested him he said 3:46 all right but this is very special 3:49 because if somebody receives it that 3:51 person also will become Amar or 3:55 Immortal so I will tell it to you in 3:58 Kailash and ensure that nobody else is 4:03 hearing so Lord Shiv 4:06 clapped all the living entities cleared 4:09 off on his 4:12 instruction there was a little egg of a 4:18 parrot now the egg was there Lord Shiv 4:21 said let me go and check up as everybody 4:24 left he went and saw there was nobody 4:28 around so he came back he said all 4:31 right 4:32 Parvati when I start speaking this amar katha 4:37 I will go into samadhi divine 4:41 trance so at that time I must have a 4:45 confirmation that I'm being listened 4:50 to so please keep filling the 4:56 humkar so I will get my affirmation and I 4:59 will 5:00 continue bestowing this Katha Parvati 5:04 said all right my 5:05 Lord now Lord Shiva 5:08 began with the Katha of the Pandvas and of 5:14 the various passTimes of this Amar Kata 5:19 and Parvati kept hearing and filled the 5:25 Humkar now this little parrot egg had 5:30 hatched and the parrot bird baby was 5:35 also listening to the 5:37 Katha so Parvati was listening in Divine 5:42 ecstasy till the 10th 5:45 Canto and then in the 11th 5:48 Canto the Lord shiv started 5:52 relating the deep 5:55 knowledge the 5:57 philosophy and Parvati got bored by 6:00 it so she fell 6:03 asleep now the parrot was so enticed by 6:07 the Katha it was hearing it said I don't 6:10 want to miss this now with Parvati 6:13 sleeping who's going to fill the humkar 6:16 so the parrot started 6:21 saying the humkar, Lord shiv continued he went 6:25 through the 11th Canto 12th Canto and he 6:28 was winding 6:31 up Parvati woke 6:34 up she said Maharaj you said that there 6:37 was this divine 6:40 discussion what happened about it you 6:42 did not tell 6:44 me Lord Shiv said Parvati what are you 6:47 saying I've already crossed it did you 6:49 fall 6:50 asleep she said my Lord actually I did 6:53 the subject was so difficult I could not 6:56 resist 6:58 sleeping , then who was filling 7:01 this 7:03 humkar this is serious matter somebody 7:06 has received this amar katha and become 7:09 immortal he went out to search and he 7:13 found this little baby parrot now as a 7:17 Leela as a pastime he got annoyed and 7:20 gave chase to the 7:22 parrot so the parrot 7:26 fled and Ved Vyas's wife 7:30 through her mouth he entered her womb 7:33 and sat down 7:34 inside this was the great 7:37 “Shuk” the future speaker of the 7:48 Srimad Bhagavatam,  7:48 On Shiv's instructions the nine 7:51 Rishis the nine yogeshwar they went to test Parvati 7:59 so they saw Parvati performing 8:02 austerities a young lady they said that 8:06 you know for a young lady to be in this 8:09 isolated place so cold so austere what 8:13 are you 8:14 doing Parvati said I'm embarrassed to say 8:17 you people will laugh no tell us she 8:22 said I am performing austerities to get 8:25 Shiv as my husband 8:30 so the nine 8:31 yogeshwars they tried to test 8:34 her they said but don't you know that 8:36 Shiv he's a baba he applies Bhasma (ash) on his 8:40 body and he wears a mrig charms (deer skin) he doesn't 8:43 have any property any wealth those bhoot 8:46 Pret, ghosts and spirits are his 8:48 associates why don't you try and get 8:51 Vishnu as your husband Vishnu is the 8:54 abode of all good 8:58 qualities when they tempted Parvati like 9:02 this Parvati made an amazing 9:15 statement when Sati had rejected her 9:20 body Shiv in complete detachment was 9:24 roaming around as a 9:25 baba and finally he came back to kailash 9:28 and sat down 9:30 when Lord Ram 9:32 came so Shiv was of course pleased to 9:36 see have darshan of his Ishta deva 9:39 Ram 9:42 said everybody asks you for a 9:47 boon I am also going to ask you for a 9:52 boon and hearing this Lord Shiv was 9:56 delighted because Lord Shiv although 9:59 he is God 10:01 himself in his Divine leelas he looks on 10:05 Ram as his 10:08 Isht deva Shiv said prabhu your wish is my 10:12 command what do you 10:14 want Ram said Sati used her intellect in 10:20 my 10:21 leelas as a result of which you rejected 10:25 her she burned her body in the Yagya 10:29 of Daksh and she has come back as the 10:33 daughter of Himalaya she is performing 10:36 tapasya to attain 10:40 you when the proposal is given to you 10:44 please accept and marry 10:46 her Shiv said if that is your wish I 10:49 will fulfill 10:51 it so now on shiv's instructions the 10:55 nine rishis the nine yogeshwar 10:59 they went to test 11:02 Parvati so they saw Parvati performing 11:06 austerities they said that you know for 11:08 a young lady to be in this isolated 11:12 place so cold so austere what are you 11:16 doing parti said I'm embarrassed to say 11:20 you people will laugh no, tell us she 11:24 said I am performing austerities to get 11:28 Shiv as is my 11:31 husband so the nine 11:33 yogeshwars they tried to test 11:36 her they said but don't you know that 11:39 Shiv he's a baba he applies bhasma (ash) on his 11:42 body and he wears a mrig charms (deer skin) he doesn't 11:45 have any property any wealth those bhoot 11:48 Pret ghosts and spirits are his 11:51 associates why don't you try and get 11:53 Vishnu as your husband Vishnu is the 11:57 Abode of all good qualities 12:01 when they tempted Parvati like this 12:06 Parvati made an amazing statement she 12:09 said 12:11 look Shiv may be the of all defects 12:17 and Vishnu may be the treasure chest of 12:20 all good 12:22 qualities if I have loved on the basis 12:25 of qualities then I am still selfish 12:29 that is worldly love my love is 12:33 selfless I will either marry Shiv or I 12:38 will remain kumari for ages and ages 12:42 that is my final 12:44 verdict so the nine yogeshwars were very 12:47 pleased they went and told this to Lord 12:51 shiv now Lord shiv when he heard this he 12:55 was delighted he again closed his eyes 12:58 and went off into 13:00 samadhi at that time there was a rakshas 13:05 called 13:06 Tarakasur who was oppressing the devatas 13:10 a 13:11 lot and they were unable to kill this 13:14 powerful 13:16 Tarakasur so Brahma said if there is a child 13:20 born to Shiv and Parvati that child 13:23 alone can kill this 13:25 Tarakasur so Shiv and Parvati need to 13:28 get married but Shiv is in 13:31 samadhi what to do so they commissioned 13:35 Kamdev the god of cupid 13:39 and said you go and you break Shiv's 13:43 Samadhi, cupid Kamdev came with all his 13:47 associates and he started creating an 13:49 environment out there increasing the 13:53 desire of the 13:56 atmosphere as a result of which the 13:58 stream started running towards the ocean 14:01 the creepers started clinging to each 14:03 other clouds started merging in each 14:06 other but Shiv is still sitting 14:09 unmoved so Kamdev was totally annoyed 14:13 finally he took an arrow and he shot it 14:17 at Lord Shiv when that arrow hit Lord 14:21 shiv he opened his eyes and he said, “बड़ा रंगीला माहोल है”  14:30 what is the matter my samadhi has been 14:33 disturbed so he saw Cupid he became annoyed 14:37 he opened his third eye and he burned Cupid Kamdev 14:40 to ashes right 14:42 there all the yogis became happy now Cupid Kamdev 14:46 is finished we will be very very happy 14:49 the bhogies became very sad how will we 14:53 enjoy everything became niras (नीरस) 14:56 dry the wife of Cupid Kamdev Rati she started 15:01 crying Shiv felt pity at Rati so he 15:06 said all right your husband Cupid Kamdev will now 15:09 be ananga he will be without a 15:11 body but he will 15:14 exist so the devatas they came along 15:17 with Brahma to Shiv, they requested 15:20 Shiv, they did not give the real 15:22 reason why they need the marriage (of Shiv & Parvati) they 15:24 said nobody is interested in marriage 15:26 any longer please you have to create 15:29 some Rus in this world you have to get 15:32 married to Parvati Shiv agreed so the 15:37 consent was given the news was 15:40 sent Narad ji he went and he informed 15:44 Parvati that you can now go home Parvati 15:48 went home the preparation started 15:51 getting made Himvan and Menavati (parents of Parvati) they were 15:55 delighted that our daughter is going to 15:58 get married 16:00 so here the Barat was being 16:03 prepared all the devatas came when shiv 16:07 is going to get married it's a big big 16:10 event so Indra Varun Kuber Agni all of them 16:15 came but they were all decorating 16:18 themselves nobody is concerned in 16:20 decorating the 16:22 dulha so Shringi Rishi he said all right 16:26 never mind he called all the shiv dutas 16:29 the rudra gans so all the bhoot prets from 16:33 the various shamshans he called them over 16:35 come on decorate your 16:37 master so somebody is hanging scorpions 16:40 from the ears and somebody is putting 16:43 the snake around the neck such 16:46 decorations as have never been done in 16:48 the 16:49 world now Shiv is starting 16:53 off on 16:55 Nandi the devtas said that you know it is 16:59 below our dignity to walk with such a 17:01 dulha let us do one thing let us walk in 17:04 front 17:06 ahead so the devtas started walking ahead 17:09 Shiv is walking behind he's beyond maan 17:12 and samman he doesn't care the whole 17:15 barat it reached 17:18 Himachal so now the residents of Himachal 17:24 they saw the baratis so attractive so 17:27 well-dressed Vishnu ji was right in front 17:30 they said are you the dulha 17:32 He said no I am the barati, they 17:36 said look if the barati is so handsome 17:39 how will the dulha be we are very eager 17:42 to see him Vishnu said after seeing him 17:45 whether you will live or not that is a 17:49 question so finally when Shiv entered 17:54 now in barat 18:13 somebody has a mouth out here somebody 18:16 has got one eye somebody is very fat 18:18 somebody is very thin these kinds of the 18:22 the rudra gan they are all walking so 18:25 the moment the barat entered all the 18:28 Himachal they ran out of the 18:31 town so Shiv said that nobody is here 18:34 to welcome me what is the 18:36 matter so Shringi said maharaj this is the 18:41 mahima of your lotus feet nevertheless 18:44 let's go to the mandap now they went to 18:46 the vivah mandap that had been readied and 18:50 of course Himvan welcomed Shiv , Menavati!! 18:54 was called please come and do the arti 18:57 and Parvati was also called so 18:59 Menavati devi took the arti plate to do arti 19:03 of the damat and when she saw Shiv the 19:06 arti thali fell out of her plate and she 19:09 fainted what is this so she started 19:13 cursing Narad that what kind of marriage 19:16 have you arranged they all tried to 19:19 convince her that come on don't you know 19:22 him she said under no conditions will I 19:25 marry my daughter to such a dulha so 19:29 Narad had to be called Narad  19:32 convinced that what are you doing don't 19:35 you recognize he's 19:37 Jagadish and your daughter is his 19:40 eternal ardhangini she has been born 19:44 again as your daughter she is his 19:47 eternal associate so finally Menavati devi 19:50 was convinced and the marriage took 19:57 place  Standby link (in case youtube link does not work):

Main Points:

1 लगभग 80 वर्ष के सज्जन बोले कि अब मैं गीता पड़ना आरंभ करूंगा https://youtu.be/doEIQT2Wbt4&t=0 2 प्रहलाद महाराज कहते हैं आध्यात्मिक जीवन अति शीघ्र आरंभ करना चाहिए विलंब नहीं करना चाहिए और इसीलिए श्रवण और कीर्तन की व्यवस्था हर वर्ग के व्यक्ति के लिए उपलब्ध करा देना चाहिए https://youtu.be/doEIQT2Wbt4&t=67  3 कई बार लोगों के मन में यह भय होता है कि आध्यात्मिक जीवन से ज्यादा जुड़ेंगे तो सब कुछ छोड़ना पड़ेगा https://youtu.be/doEIQT2Wbt4&t=92  4 प्रभुपाद जी ने गीता, भागवत, चैतन्य चरितामृत, इत्यादि के आधार पर यह आध्यात्मिक ज्ञान की शिक्षा दी है और इस शिक्षा का यह प्रभाव होता है कि ना केवल व्यक्ति अपने भौतिक विद्या के आधार पर सामर्थ्य वान बनता है लेकिन Iskcon के मंदिरों के आध्यात्मिक ज्ञान को सुनकर वह चरित्रवान भी बन जाता है https://youtu.be/doEIQT2Wbt4&t=158 5 श्री रामचंद्र जी स्वयं अपने उदाहरण से प्रस्तुत कर रहे हैं कि अगर श्रवण करना हो, कीर्तन करना हो, भजन करना हो, साधना करनी हो, वह केवल सत्संग में संभव है, कलयुग को कहा गया है “Age of quarrel & hypocrisy” (“झगड़े और पाखंड का युग”) https://youtu.be/doEIQT2Wbt4&t=251  Importance of satsang:

#1 Reason why Faith Speeds Up Your Spiritual Progress - Shree Krishna Reveals - Elaboration on *Gita Shloka* 4.39 -by Swami Mukundanand

#1 Reason why Faith Speeds Up Your Spiritual Progress - Shree Krishna Reveals - Elaboration on *Gita Shloka* 4.39   https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc

The following gives you the main points from video (transcript of the video is available):

1 The transfer of knowledge requires faith not Blind Faith https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc&t=0 2 Knowledge will destroy all the stress tension everything – why ? it will change our perspective https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc&t=40 3 What is the indication that your perspective is higher, the indication is param shanti - you will feel perfect peace- then no matter what happens your peace will not be disturbed https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc&t=61 4 even in the material world we have to surrender our intellect to receive knowledge but in the spiritual realm we do not surrender our intellect https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc&t=180 5 Even an ordinary grass cutter in India will tell you Bhagwan is ghat ghat vasi, He is antaryami,He is sitting in the heart we all know but do we have faith in this fact ? (so there is a difference between mere knowledge & having faith in that knowledge)

Faith is one of the biggest things in life, wherever you place your faith that is how your life will become. For example the televisions and all they lead the children astray because they developed faith this is the way to happiness they lead them on a path of illusion or they fall into wrong association and the friends tell them that you know the real happiness is by taking narcotics (drinking alcohol) and that boy develops faith in that philosophy and he is led astray  https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc&t=349 7 After many many lifetimes the soul develops this faith that it is worthwhile to go into satsang - so this Faith, wherever we place it, that will determine the direction (trajectory) of our life. In the world millions of sources are trying to pull our faith away from God - all the advertisements - you take this kind of soap, lux soap it is the soap of film stars, so it's trying to win your faith https://youtu.be/2sRpT6U9ybc&t=430 0:02 the transfer of 0:04 knowledge requires faith not Blind Faith 0:10 but well thought out well rationalized 0:16 reasoned faith in the proper place 0:20 wherever you place your faith that is 0:23 how your life will 0:26 become after many many lifetimes the 0:29 soul develops this faith that it is 0:33 worthwhile to go into 0:36 satsang Sri Krishna says from that Faith 0:40 Arjun you will get 0:43 true perfect 0:46 peace 0:48 why knowledge will 0:51 destroy all the stress tension 0:56 everything why it will change our 1:01 perspective what is the 1:04 indication that your 1:07 perspective is higher the indication is 1:11 param 1:13 shanti you will feel perfect 1:17 peace then no matter what happens your 1:21 peace will not be 1:26 disturbed bhagavat Gita chapter 4 verse 39 1:30 chanting is followed by translation and 1:33 commentary by Swami Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 Sloka 4.39 Chanting 2:04 those whose faith is 2:07 deep and who have practiced controlling 2:11 their mind and 2:14 senses attain Divine 2:17 knowledge through such transcendental 2:21 knowledge they quickly attain 2:26 Everlasting Supreme peace Bhagavad Gita Commentary by Swami Mukundananda 2:33 now 2:35 having increased Arjun's yearning for 2:39 knowledge He gives one condition out 2:47 there Arjun in order to get this 2:51 knowledge you will have to have 2:55 shradha or 2:58 faith 3:00 the transfer of 3:02 knowledge requires 3:07 Faith even in the 3:10 world the teacher 3:13 teaches when we were 3:15 small the teacher made one shape and 3:19 said this is 3:21 X everybody say x everybody said X this 3:26 is why everyone say Y, everybody said Y 3:30 now the teacher was teaching we were 3:33 having the faith and we were receiving 3:36 the knowledge supposing we said sir 3:39 until you prove that this is X and not B 3:42 I will not 3:44 study the teacher will say how will I 3:48 teach 3:49 you if you do not have faith imparting 3:53 knowledge is not 3:55 possible so in the material side we are 3:59 willing to surrender our intellect and 4:03 we receive the 4:05 knowledge in the spiritual side we don't 4:08 surrender the 4:10 intellect everybody thinks spirituality 4:13 is common sense I know as much as the 4:16 other why should I surrender my 4:19 intellect so when we are not willing to 4:22 do that we will not receive the 4:27 knowledge because 4:33 so this concept of faith comes 4:38 in faith is a very big 4:44 thing very big, in the Bible Jesus Christ 4:49 says if you have faith the size of a 4:52 mustard 4:54 seed you can move 4:58 mountains as the Kathopnishad says if you have 5:02 true Faith you will attain God that's 5:12 it says the definition of God we all 5:18 know even an ordinary grass cutter in 5:21 India will tell you Bhagwan is ghat ghat vasi He is antaryami 5:25 He is sitting in the heart we all know 5:29 but do we have 5:32 Faith, that faith He says 5:36 that same knowledge if you can have 5:40 faith you will attain Him there's 5:42 nothing further to 5:44 do so that Faith develops 5:49 slowly it is one of the biggest things 5:53 in 5:54 life wherever you place your faith that 5:58 is how your life will 6:02 become have you ever thought about it if 6:06 you place your faith in the theories 6:10 taught to you for example the 6:12 televisions and all they lead the 6:15 children astray because they developed 6:17 Faith this is the way to 6:20 happiness they lead them on a path of 6:23 Illusion or they fall into wrong 6:26 association and the friends tell them 6:28 that you know the real happiness is by 6:31 taking narcotics (drinking alcohol) and that boy develops 6:34 faith in that philosophy and he is led 6:39 astray so again the Bible says we walk 6:42 by faith and not by 6:46 sight why is it that you people are here 6:50 by your 6:51 sanskars by the association of saints 6:55 etc you developed this faith that I must 7:00 go to satsang I will get 7:10 something after many many 7:13 lifetimes the soul develops this faith 7:17 that it is worthwhile to go into 7:22 satsang so this Faith wherever we place 7:28 it that will determine the 7:32 direction of our 7:35 life and in the 7:38 world millions of sources are trying to 7:42 pull our 7:45 faith all the 7:47 advertisement you take this kind of soap 7:51 lux soap it is the soap of film 7:54 stars so it's trying to win your faith 7:57 you know this is the soap of film star 8:00 and the other one says life 8:04 buoy you take this this is the source 8:07 of health it will kill all the germs in 8:10 your body so all over they trying to 8:14 pull your faith what is the spiritual 8:18 process the spiritual process is don't 8:22 trust your mind and intellect and your 8:27 Senses, don't have faith in 8:30 this they are 8:32 incomplete they are 8:34 Material, you will get misled if you 8:37 go by virtue of your senses your mind 8:40 your intellect if you have faith in this 8:42 then place your faith in a higher 8:47 authority in a perfect 8:52 source so what is worthy of our 8:57 faith Shankaracharya 9:08 says he is defining what is the meaning 9:11 of shradha to have this firm decision in 9:17 the knowledge of the 9:19 scriptures and the instructions of the 9:23 guru that these are coming from the 9:27 transcendental platform 9:30 so they are free of the material defects 9:34 they are truly worthy of our faith so 9:38 when we place that element of 9:42 Faith there everybody has to place their 9:46 faith 9:48 somewhere mostly we place it on our tiny 9:51 intellect but if we place our faith 9:56 on God but God is not there right now so 10:01 through the mediums of the shastra and 10:04 the guru 10:06 then our path starts getting illuminated 10:11 with Divine 10:13 knowledge so that Faith 10:17 automatically opens up the pathway to 10:23 knowledge our Vedic heritage is full of 10:28 such stories 10:30 of how the disciple developed that firm 10:34 faith and automatically the knowledge of 10:37 the scriptures got revealed in the 10:41 heart Shankaracharya !!one disciple was 10:46 Sanand, Sanand was 10:51 illiterate and when guruji would teach 10:56 Vedant he would just sit in class and 10:58 look at  11:00 him he is saying something important so 11:03 I must look but he could not understand 11:06 what's going 11:08 on one day he was washing guruji's 11:12 clothes on the other side of the 11:17 river it was time for the 11:22 class all the disciples said please 11:27 begin Shankaracharya said but Sanand is not 11:31 here let's wait for 11:33 him but guruji he is illiterate he 11:36 cannot even understand what you 11:39 say that is all right but he listens 11:42 with very great 11:44 faith so Shankaracharya just to show the 11:48 power of Faith he called him 11:52 now Sanand  was on the other side of the 11:56 river heard his Guru he 12:00 ran he didn't realize there's the river 12:03 in 12:04 front so he ran and he put his feet on 12:09 the 12:10 water and Shankaracharya's life history 12:14 says that under his feet the lotus 12:18 flowers kept on blooming so he put his 12:21 feet on them and he crossed over to the 12:25 other side so when he came he offered 12:28 his pranam and from his 12:31 mouth praises of the guru in 12:35 sophisticated sanskrit started emanating 12:38 to the astonishment of the other 12:42 disciples later on because the lotus 12:45 flowers had bloomed under his feet he 12:48 became known as Padma-pad so one of the 12:52 four main Disciples of Shankaracharya were 12:56 Suresvaracharya, Totakacharya, Hastamalaka, and Padmapada  13:01 who are given the four different 13:04 muths so by virtue of that faith he got 13:08 the 13:09 knowledge so 13:11 The Svethashwar Upanishad 6.23 says 13:24 to that Soul who has got staunch 13:29 faith in God and His 13:33 Guru all the meanings of the 13:37 shastras automatically get illumined in 13:42 the 13:44 heart but this faith can also be very 13:50 dangerous see if faith is placed in the 13:55 wrong 13:56 place it can lead us to 14:01 hell if faith is placed in a 14:05 wrong 14:07 person and that person says all right 14:10 now you do this this this,  it can lead us 14:13 to 14:14 hell so that is why Blind Faith can be 14:19 the most dangerous 14:21 thing so if when we are placing our 14:25 faith we should be careful 14:29 where are we pacing our faith that is 14:32 why it is 14:36 said “पानी पियो छान के, गुरु बनाओ जान के”  14:39 you first be careful before you 14:43 accept somebody as Guru ensure this 14:47 person is 14:49 Transcendental has the ability to take 14:52 us to the transcendental platform will 14:55 not cheat us in any way and then  14:59 you place your 15:01 faith and on the shastras there is no 15:05 problem everybody knows Bhagavad-Gita 15:08 means perfect knowledge Vedas means 15:11 perfect knowledge by virtue of growing 15:14 up in that Vedic culture that faith comes 15:19 naturally so without faith if you think 15:23 you will get knowledge you are in for a 15:27 disappointment 15:30 people come and say you know swam ji I've 15:32 got these 20 questions please give me 15:34 the 15:35 Answers, is that the way Shri 15:38 Krishna said you will get 15:40 Knowledge ?, He 15:46 says this knowledge is not if 15:50 you cannot answer my question I'll keep 15:52 believing what I think I 15:54 believe if you have the challenging mood 15:59 Divine knowledge will elude 16:02 you then you will say oh you know I 16:04 asked that question and he could not 16:06 give a suitable 16:09 answer you could not understand the 16:14 Answer, 16:16 one standard one (Grade 1, class 1) student goes to Albert 16:22 Einstein and he says you know you have 16:25 presented this Theory e=mc square, 16:28 can you prove it to 16:31 me now Einstein looks at this  16:34 standard one student he says 16:38 do you know polar 16:42 Integration, no I don't do you know 16:45 calculus ordinary calculus, no I don't do 16:49 you know Algebra, I don't even know what 16:53 do you know I know that two fingers plus 16:56 two fingers is four fingers 17:00 Einstein says then I cannot teach you 17:03 you cannot teach me that means your 17:05 theory is 17:07 wrong his theory is not wrong but he's 17:10 not qualified to 17:13 understand similarly this Divine 17:16 knowledge has a process of being 17:19 imparted and one of the features of that 17:23 process Sri Krishna says is faith not 17:28 Blind Faith but well thought out well 17:35 rationalized reasoned faith in the 17:38 proper place will lead us to 17:43 knowledge and then He 17:46 says from that Faith Arjun you will get 17:51 true perfect 17:57 Peace, why ? 18:00 knowledge will 18:02 destroy all the stress, tension 18:07 everything why it will change our 18:13 Perspective, somebody was telling me 18:16 yesterday Swami ji you know I started 18:19 this new Endeavor the same time you 18:22 started your 18:23 lecture and I heard from you inaction 18:27 In action 18:29 that while doing action you are still in 18:32 the state of inaction and it has changed 18:35 my 18:36 Perspective, in other words knowledge 18:40 gives us a different 18:43 perspective and what is the 18:47 indication that your 18:50 perspective is 18:52 Higher, the indication 18:55 is 18:57 Param shanti you will feel perfect 19:03 peace He says not temporarily, 19:07 temporarily you can get peace even 19:09 through 19:12 Chloroform, that's what the doctor does, !! 19:14 he gives chloroform and now that 19:16 person is at peace for the next six 19:19 hours but Shri Krishna says 19:26 This knowledge will give you 19:29 permanent peace eternally, in other words 19:33 then no matter what happens your peace 19:37 will not be 19:40 destroyed Bal gangadhar 19:43 Tilak was a Karma Yogi he has 19:47 written a wonderful commentary on the 19:49 Bhagwat Gita very 19:52 scholarly and he was also fighting the 19:55 freedom war as his 19:59 duty so he was asked that you know if 20:01 India becomes free then what will you do 20:04 will you strive to be the Prime 20:07 Minister he said no I will get time to 20:10 write my book on 20:12 Calculus, other words he has got no 20:15 interest in that he is doing his 20:19 duty so I was reading a very interesting 20:22 incident that he was put into the 20:26 jail under some section because he was 20:30 active in the freedom struggle so when 20:33 he was being brought to be arrested he 20:37 told his friend just find out statutes 20:39 under this section and what are my 20:41 rights etc and come and tell me in the 20:44 jail and when that friend came to jail 20:47 he found that Tilak is sleeping fast just 20:50 snoring away now I imagine look at his 20:53 Shanti, his peace and nothing can disturb 20:59 his 21:00 Peace, why ? as he is situated in 21:04 knowledge I have to do my duty the 21:08 results are in the hands of God I'm 21:11 doing my duty doesn't 21:13 matter so Shree Krishna says that 21:17 knowledge will bestow such kind of 21:22 perfect peace 21:24 eternally that will be true knowledge Standby link (in case youtube link does not work) https://1drv.ms/v/s!AkyvEsDbWj1gn_0MIPZlmtj5S9KR8A?e=eIZFdF

An Untold Story of 4-Year Old Krishna - Lord Krishna's Law of Love Explained by Swami Mukundanand

An Untold Story of 4-Year Old Krishna - Lord Krishna's Law of Love Explained by Swami Mukundanand

• https://youtu.be/SFKMXfC-IxI On this auspicious day, immerse yourself in devotion by listening to a sweet pastime of Baby Krishna when he was four years old, where he reveals how the love of his devotees enslaves him.  The Leela also reveals God's Law of Love and how the selfless devotion of a soul melts his heart and moves him. Watch more to learn as Swami Mukundananda relates the pastime in detail.

Main points: sr 1 if you wish to love God, you need to feel that connection https://youtu.be/SFKMXfC-IxI&t=5 sr 2 He has a law of love, He says as you love Me I will reciprocate accordingly https://youtu.be/SFKMXfC-IxI&t=72

ये यथा मां प्रपद्यन्ते तांस्तथैव भजाम्यहम् । As all surrender unto Me, I reward them accordingly. https://vedabase.io/en/library/bg/4/11/ sr 3 भगवान "भक्त वत्सल" तो है हीं मगर उससे भी उंचा गुण है "भक्त के वश" में होना God is very fond of his devotees, but a quality even higher than that is to that He comes under the control of His devotees. https://youtu.be/SFKMXfC-IxI&t=174 sr 4 an incident of a gopi who was working in the field, there was a pile of cow dung... https://youtu.be/SFKMXfC-IxI&t=210

• Transcript 0:05 if you wish to love God you need to feel 0:10 that connection, He is 0:13 Mine, if all we can think of He is great 0:16 He is 0:18 Almighty we will be 0:20 fearful we will be 0:23 reverential but that intimate sentiment 0:27 of love will not get 0:31 Enhanced, like in the world a lady her 0:35 husband may be the general in the Army 0:38 to whom 100,000 people salute but 0:43 that wife she only thinks he is my 0:46 husband that is how she loves him she 0:49 puts the Aishwarya (opulence) 0:54 Aside, similarly to love God don't just 0:58 think He is God He's God He's God 1:01 otherwise you will experience 1:05 fear there are loving relationships that 1:09 you can establish with him He is God no 1:12 doubt but He has a law of 1:20 love He says as you love me I will 1:24 reciprocate 1:26 accordingly if the devote thinks oh 1:30 Krishna you are my friend come here I'll 1:33 put my arm around you Krishna says Arjun 1:38 you are my bosom buddy come 1:41 on if the devote 1:43 says oh Krishna look I will take care of 1:48 you that is my 1:52 seva bhav, my 1:54 sentiment you don't need to think about 1:57 me Krishna says Yashoda I'm putting myself 2:01 at your disposal now you are my mother 2:04 I'm all 2:05 yours so Yashoda is the mother of 2:10 God and if the devote says oh Krishna I 2:15 know no other apart from You You are my 2:19 sole 2:20 beloved Krishna says oh Gopi I am 2:24 willing to be your sole beloved this is 2:28 the specialty of our sanatan dharma 2:32 which we call 2:35 Hinduism you know Devotion to God is 2:39 taught around the 2:41 world often with the predominant 2:44 sentiment of 2:46 fear that is all very well but there is 2:49 a loving aspect of God and He subjugates 2:54 himself this the Vedas tell us that the 2:58 highest quality of God is Bhakt Vatsal 3:02 lover of his devotees 3:05 no even 3:08 higher , Bhakt Vashya He is enslaved by his 3:13 devotees 3:14 Krishna was a 4-year-old in his 3:19 leela and He has taken Avatar and is 3:23 doing His pastimes in an agrarian (agricultural) 3:26 Setting, well people live off the land 3:30 so one Gopi was working in the 3:34 field there was a pile of cow dung and she 3:37 needed to move 3:39 it when Kanhayya came and stood 3:42 there the Gopi saw and said Shyam 3:46 Sunder help me 3:48 out fill the basket with this gobar and 3:52 give it to me I'll give you a ball of 3:55 butter Krishna said really food for work 3:59 okay 4:00 He started filling it up, He loves 4:03 butter so He took it and gave it to the 4:07 gopi the Gopi said the whole pile needs 4:10 to be lifted just keep filling the 4:13 baskets and handing them to me I'll give 4:16 you one ball of butter for every basket 4:19 that you work for me Krishna said all 4:22 right you got a deal there contract 4:25 signed He started filling and handing 4:28 over the basket 4:31 but after three or four He lost count 4:34 what so He said who will keep track gopi 4:39 said that is the least of problems we'll 4:41 convert your cheek into an account book 4:44 every time you hand the basket to me 4:46 I'll take one bindi of gobar and I'll 4:49 stick it to your cheek later on we'll 4:52 count how many do you 4:54 have Krishna said you are 4:58 brilliant so He got got to work in right 5:01 earnest one cheek was filled the other 5:04 was filled the forehead was also filled 5:10 so that Lord who worshipped by the 5:26 Vedas the same Lord's face has been 5:29 covered by 5:31 Cow dung how is this happening in her love 5:36 the Gopi has forgotten that He is God 5:40 there is the love energy and the 5:42 knowledge energy the Gyan Shakti and the Para 5:47 Shakti when the love 5:49 swells the knowledge immerses in it the 5:54 devote forgets this is God otherwise the 5:58 fear will take take over and God also 6:01 forgets that He is God that is when the 6:05 loving exchanges take 6:08 place so Krishna said you know it's been 6:11 a lot of hard work I have toiled it out 6:14 now give me the 6:16 butter Gopi said what butter  6:19 it was our contract how many baskets I 6:22 lift you give me that much of butter 6:25 baba butter is not here it is at home 6:27 come now she's walking along with 6:30 Krishna she's getting the sanidhya (company) the 6:33 closeness of Krishna and she's 6:36 delighted out there at home there was 6:39 another gopi 6:41 sitting and she looked at Krishna's 6:44 face and pointed and said sakhi what have 6:48 you done to 6:49 him they both broke into laughter 6:53 Krishna said why are you laughing go and 6:56 look at your face Krishna went and 6:59 looked at his face in the mirror oh my 7:02 god what have you done He went took a 7:05 piece of wet rag wiped his face clean 7:08 and came said enough is enough give me 7:11 the butter now gopi said what butter are 7:14 you talking about you keep 7:18 forgetting our deal was as many baskets 7:22 I lift I'll get that much of butter the 7:25 gopi said look at the deal again 7:30 the contract was as many bindies are 7:33 there on your face you will get those 7:35 many balls of butter you have cleaned up 7:37 the whole account book you'll get 7:40 nothing so Krishna was about to 7:44 cry when a child begins to cry He gives 7:48 a fore 7:49 warning this chin goes up and down a few 7:53 times 7:56 then in Hindi it is said (quote) when 8:00 this mudra got created of Krishna the 8:03 gopi said all right all right don't cry 8:05 we'll give you the butter take how much 8:07 you 8:08 like these are the loving pastimes of 8:12 the Lord that give us confidence in our 8:16 bhakti that He is the master of the 8:19 universe but He is the god of love and 8:24 we can relate to him we can connect with 8:27 him how will that connection get 8:31 Created, when we decide that He is 8:38 mine this human intellect is such the 8:42 moment you decide somebody is mine the 8:47 love automatically grows 8:58 within
