Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj [ Death Fear ] ... मृत्यु का भय Radha Govind Dham.mp4

 

1.57 पांच क्लेश होते हैं उस में से एक है मृत्यु का भय, उसे अभिनिवेश कहते हैं, ये भय सबको है, ऐसा नहीं है कि मृत्यु का समय निश्चित है की 50 वर्ष तक तो मरना ही नहीं, पक्का है

2.50 पैदा होते ही या माँ के पेट में ही बच्चा मर जाता है कभी कभी, सभी देख ही रहे हैं कि आस पास सब लोग मर ही रहे

3.18  फिर मृत्यु से डरते क्यों हैं, सब वेद, शास्त्र के प्रमाण और आसपास सभी जगह प्रत्यक्ष प्रमाण को भी नकार दिया की मैं तो नहीं मरने वाला

3.42 ये संसार है, संसार शब्द बना है संसृति से : संसार माने सरकने वाला, पहले सबसे ऊपर सतयुग आया, फिर संसार सरका त्रेता युग की तरफ, फिर द्वापर, फिर कलयुग और जब संसार बहुत नीचे चला जाएगा तब फिर भगवान सतयुग ले आयेंगे, संसार सरकता ही रहता है

4.25 ये संसार चलता ही रहता है कोई चीज़ स्थिर नहीं है, और यदि कोई स्थिर है केवल तीन चीज़ 1. ब्रह्मा 2 जीव 3. माया  लेकिन आना जाना इन तीनों का भी बना हुआ है

5.04 ब्रह्मा भी आते हैं और अपनी आयु व्यतीत कर के चले जाते हैं - हालांकि ब्रह्मा तो स्वेच्छा  से आते हैं और स्वेच्छा से जाते हैं, मगर जीव कैदी बनकर आते हैं और कैदी बनकर ही चले जाते हैं, ये भेद तो है ब्रह्म और जीव में लेकिन आना जाना सबका लगा रहता है

5.42  माया भी आती है जाती है,  सारे संसार का प्रलय होता है एक दिन

6.11 पृथ्वी से 10 गुना जल,  जल से 10 गुना अग्नि, अग्नि से 10 गुना वायू, वायु से 10 गुना आकाश, आकाश से 10 गुना पंचतनमात्रा, पंचतनमात्रा से 10 गुना अहंकार, अहंकार से 10 गुना महान,  महान से 10 गुना प्रकृति, प्रकृति से अनंत गुना भगवान, प्रलय के बाद प्रकृति लीन हो जाती है भगवान में और फिर भगवान ही उसे दोबारा प्रकट करते हैं

 

6.55 ये आवागमन, आना जाना, सबका चलता ही रहता है, तो फिर भय क्यों, जब जाने का समय होगा तो जाना ही होगा

7.33 11,000 वर्ष राम रहे, समय पूरा होने पर यमराज आए, प्रणाम किया और राम जी को बोला कि आपका समय हो गया, हम याद दिलाने आए हैं, आप को लेके तो कोई जा नहीं सकता, लेकिन हम आपके नौकर हैं, हमारी dutyहै आपको समय पर याद कराना, जैसे संसार में मंत्री को उनके PAयाद कराते हैं

8.27 32 वर्ष की आयु में शंकराचार्य चले गए, 48 वर्ष में गौरांग चैतन्य महाप्रभु चले गए

 

 

Srimad Bhagavatam 6.4.25 by HG Amarendra Prabhu, 16 Nov 2022 - Salient Points

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ER-m2NhJ7Aw

 

Salient Points as noted by me:

15.16Bhakti is called स+हिता, स means along with & हिता means welfare. So, Bhakti brings supreme well-being for one & therefore books containing bhakti are called साहित्य

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=916

 

18.25 we cannot see Krishna, examples.

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1104

 

21.53Krishna appears to us in so many ways to reciprocate with us & only to uplift us. He appears as His holy books, His विग्रह (deities), as Shri Vrindavan dham, as गुरुदेव - if we think gurudev is simply a human being, it is considered an offence.  

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1313&

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1678

 

24.25 why guru is more important than all demigods.

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1465

 

29 none can know or describe Greatness & Opulence of Krishna, unless Krishna reveals Himself to His pure devotees.

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1701

 

30.55 His माधुर्य भाव & He is grave, means we cannot understand what He is thinking. We can never estimate / understand / appreciate how much He loves us all.

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1850

 

32.28 one incident of Prabhupad : once some devotees were cooking, Prabhupada came and asked they said we have 50 pounds of rice, 50 pounds of sugar etc.  Prabhupada told them that it is Krishna who is provided this much quantity for us devotees whereas outside कर्म कांडी persons strive day and night to get one pound.

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=1948

 

35 25 Essence of the essence of the essence of everything is Krishna.

36.30 in this world by basically selfish nature, as long as we have something to give to others, people come to us, otherwise they avoid & ignore.

https://youtu.be/ER-m2NhJ7Aw?t=2330

40 15 3 types of gratitude: Ayodhya type: where all are grateful for everything, Kishkinda type where people sometimes they are grateful sometimes they are not & Lanka type where people are never grateful.

46.15 we serve a lowly boss but we ignore Super boss Krishna.

49.15दुर्भाग्य है if we love anyone anything in this world apart from Krishna.

51.45 sarvam Krishna arpanam वस्तु

55 28 Krishna is too great.

56.08 Krishna comes in the form of...... to rescue us.

57.18 He has the greatest compassion.

59 40 Gita as it is, explained why best.

1 0 10we can never understand Krishna but like a father, if he desires, lifts the son on his shoulders - likewise if Krishna desires, He can reveal Himself to His devotees. 

1 02 20 Krishna created the universe and simultaneously the Vedas and Prabhupad similarly created ISKCON and Bhakti Vedant trust books.

1 02 55 we can never understand Krishna.

1 04 54 Guru destroys darkness, given some examples.

1 06 35 which is the book to start with

1 11 31 what if garlic onion people eat at home and they force you.

1 14 10 why did Arjuna ask Krishna to show His cosmic Universal form.

1 14 39 how to overcome initial hesitation in performing bhakti.

1 17 31 why Satyug etc. are not found in evidence in archaeology.

1 18 49 Darwin for father might have been monkeys but Prabhu Path says my father was appreciate.

1 20 01 it is not the instinct only but Lord who sits in heart of each being, even insects, & so God guides.

1 21 52 Science if you dig Deep you come to the divnity point.

1 25 15 only one rule; remember Krishna all the time.

1 28 30 five fingers point to five principles 1. Worship Krishna, son of Nanda maharaj 2. Be attached only to Vrindavan 3. Follow the footsteps of Gopis 4. Study Srimad Bhagvat 5. Aim of our life is to develop for Shri Radha Krishna

faith in the chanting of the holy name and to maintain material attachments even after understanding so many

back here thank you thank you so much foreign so this is Kanto 6 chapter 4 takes 25.

11:37

[Music]

11:49

foreign

11:57

because they are only matter the body the life heirs the external and internal

12:03

senses the five gross elements and the subtle sense objects form taste smell

12:09

sound and touch cannot know their own nature the nature of other senses or the nature of their controllers but the

12:16

living being because of his spiritual nature can know his body the life airs senses elements and sense objects and he

12:23

can also know the three qualities that form their roots

12:28

nevertheless here's the point that we will elaborate on in today's discussion

12:33

nevertheless although the living entity is completely aware of them he is unable to see the Supreme Being whose

12:39

omniscient and unlimited I therefore offer my respectful obeisances unto him purport

12:46

material scientists can make an analytical study of the physical elements body senses and subjects and

12:52

even the air that controls the vital force but still they cannot understand that above all these is the real Spirit

12:58

soul in other words the living entity because of his being a spirit Soul can

13:03

understand all material objects or when self-realized he can understand the paramatma upon whom the yogis meditate

13:10

nevertheless the living entity even if he is Advanced cannot understand the Supreme Being the personality of godhead

13:17

for he is ananta Unlimited in all six opulences

13:44

Hari Krishna foreign

13:50

gives us an opportunity to hear about Krishna sing his glories

13:56

and be completely absorbed it is described in shastra

14:01

tamadi devam karunanidhanam Tamara samsara

14:11

that srimad-bhagavatam is the source of all compassion because

14:16

he's not different from Krishna

14:24

is the source of all compassion like Krishna srimad-bhagavatam is also

14:32

in the beautiful wonderful threefold bending form bluish black complection someone will say oh my bhagavatam is

14:39

white complexion with the pages yes but when srimad-bhagavatam is heard attentively what appears in the heart is

14:45

the threefold bending form of sham Sundar in the Consciousness so therefore

14:51

is the most merciful sound incarnation for the well-being of everyone

14:59

you see Swami path um he explains that uh

15:09

he gives a phrase um he says that

15:16

the word of bhakti is called sirhita means well-being

15:22

bhakti which means bhakti is the only path

15:29

which is bringing in Supreme well-being for one and all therefore bhakti is called sahita so means along with and

15:36

Hita means All Good Fortune well-being and because bhakti is called

15:43

bhakti therefore the books which describe

15:49

are called sahitya you see generally when you see the word

15:55

sahitya it's translated as literature it's because

16:01

it comes from the word sahita means all auspiciousness all well-being

16:07

and Sir means along with and because bhakti as it is being practiced brings

16:12

in all good fortune bhakti is called sirhita and therefore the book that

16:18

describes bhakti or includes or is completely imbued with bhakti is called sahitya

16:23

from the word sahita the word sahitya has come it's a derivation just like from

16:29

vasudeva you have the word vasudeva foreign

16:38

transformation of the word so similarly you can have

16:45

like that um similarly prakatia in prakati

16:52

like a tree form in Sanskrit like a derivation so similarly you can have

16:57

sahita as all well-being and then Sai hithia the book which explains it so

17:04

therefore she

17:11

means one more meaning like in Sanskrit there is a word Saha Saha means to be with

17:18

so like if you have to say lakshmana goes to the forest along with

17:26

so lakshmana goes to the forest along with ram so when you use the word Safa it means along with so sahitya also

17:34

means the experience of being with Krishna so you can see sahita sahitya and

17:42

sahitya also meaning to be with Krishna so when when you have devotion for Krishna and you hear the scripture

17:50

then the form appears in the heart and you get the same Joy of associating with

17:55

Krishna therefore is the manifestation of compassion by

18:03

hearing srimad-bhagavatam the form of Krishna must lies in the heart and you can see this

18:09

when we hear srimad-bhagavatam for a long long time that shabda Brahman pure

18:15

sound vibration coming from the lips of a pure high class vaishnav will become roof in our heart

18:22

therefore this srimad-bhagavatam is most merciful we cannot see the form what we are seeing is wood we are seeing

18:29

marble we are seeing stones but we don't see Krishna like prahlad Maharaja did

18:34

Vision now is like hirana even when Krishna is appearing in front of us as vigraha we are seeing him as what is

18:43

this is it we are trying to analyze the external

18:48

while krishna's appeared before us so here in a kashipur that's what he did have appeared before him as God

18:54

as vigra has appeared before us and hiranyika shipu was analyzing the shingadev's external what

19:01

is easy man easy animal just like we look at a GT and we Analyze This is ashtadu is it panchadata this is

19:07

bhagavan this is Krishna this is the most merciful Street rajendra Nandan

19:13

shama sundaram and Krishna who has appeared none different

19:20

prabhupada would give the example that when you're thirsty

19:26

and if you ask someone that where can I drink water from and if they say oh you can take it from the cloud

19:32

go to the cloud and drink water well it's true you can but it's

19:37

impossible you can go to the cloud and drink water right and then when you ask the person well I can't drink from there

19:43

is there any other option then he says oh there's another option you can maybe go to the ocean and drink

19:51

water well how do I go to the ocean every time I'm thirsty and the ocean has salty

19:56

water well what he's saying is correct technically I can drink but I can't drink that water it's going to spoil my

20:02

kidney with all that salt and I have to go to the ocean every time

20:07

okay is there any other option well yes there's one more option you can dig the ground and make a well you can get try

20:15

you can tap into underground water that's a good option too but it's not feasible

20:20

then the person gets tired and he says I am thirsty can you give me some easy

20:26

way oh yes there is an easy way you just open the tap and you can drink water

20:31

yes that is simple says similarly how do I see Krishna

20:38

one option is go to the clouds which means go to vikunta and have darshana Vishnu

20:44

well is it possible yes but it's almost impossible how do I go to my country

20:52

then next option he gave was go to the ocean and drink water that's like saying Krishna is present in every atom

20:58

find yourself find him behind every atom as they say

21:04

in Hindi krishna's present everywhere in every atom go and spot him and find him

21:10

and serve him that's not possible then third option is there any other way I can drink water

21:15

yeah you dig a well dig dig dig and get some water which is fine Krishna as paramatma in

21:22

the heart I have to dig in and find him is there a simpler way oh yes just like

21:29

water runs down the tab in the most accessible way Krishna is appearing in front of us in the famous

21:36

DT where you can see him and shastra time and again gives example of how we can

21:43

find Krishna reciprocate the form of the deity deity worship very very important

21:52

so similarly we can find that Krishna appears in so many ways to reciprocate with us he appears as SRI gurudeva if we

22:00

think gurudev is a mere model he is a human being he is little more advanced than me but he's also human being if he

22:06

thinks like this this is aparad foreign

22:32

don't disrespect him what is the disrespect one level of disrespect is not even

22:38

offering obeisances but uh many do many of our obeisances

22:44

but the level of disrespect is they disobey

22:49

gurudev will say something but then they will still hold the conceptions that they like

22:55

this should not be done and this should be done and what should not be done is exactly what the disciple will do

23:02

and what should be done you'll be lazy to do that then where is the surrender offering

23:08

obeisances anybody can offered used to say only through the mouth

23:14

you're saying I am your disciple but there's no discipline

23:19

there's no discipline so Shri Krishna Chandra bhagavan he explains in 11th Canto uh

23:26

don't disrespect the spiritual master by disobedience

23:35

don't have don't think that he's a mere model

23:40

oh I am hungry gurudev is also hungry I am checking is

23:45

also taking rest

23:51

what's the difference if you think like this then this is

23:59

spiritual Master is more important than all the demigods put together

24:04

if all demigods are on one side even krsna is on one side and gurudev is on the other then we should take sides with

24:11

SRI Guru and not any Guru gurudeva must be very high class

24:17

Advanced stress equation very high class

24:25

how come SRI Guru is more powerful then all the demigods put together even

24:32

powerful in Krishna because you can see that brahmaji creates universes after

24:37

universes but then lifetimes have been passed where our heart

24:43

is empty but SRI Guru what does he do he doesn't create Universe outside he creates the

24:49

universe of bhakti in the heart the whole universe of bhakti Shakti manifests in the heart brahmaji is doing

24:56

external creation and as the spiritual Master he's empowering

25:02

the empowered living entities pure vaishnavas to create the universe of

25:08

good fortune in the heart of bhakti in the heart of the disciple shiv jihi destroys

25:14

but what does the spiritual Master do he destroys avidya he destroys offenses he

25:21

destroys sins he destroys rebirth like for example if there's an atom bomb which explodes

25:28

the bodies will be finished but then the karma Remains the Same when I have to take another birth I

25:35

start off from the same residual Karma that I have to continue with so even atom bombs don't have the power

25:40

to destroy Karma but the spiritual master has he is way more powerful than the Lord of any relation Lord Shiva they

25:48

are more powerful than Lord of creation Brahma and then Vishnu maintains but the

25:54

spiritual Master maintains even disciples who are disobedient

26:00

fire can burn down forest fire can burn all the trees and even burn all the snakes but how much ever forest fire may

26:07

be there outside it doesn't burn down the mountain of sins in my heart it doesn't bow down the it doesn't burn

26:13

down the forest fire or the forest of material desires but the spiritual

26:20

Master he sets this Forest of material desires on fire

26:27

and gives a new birth to the disciple

26:32

Surya Dev he rises and sets and he gives light to the 14 planetary systems but

26:38

our Consciousness is still in the deepest darkest Darkness it's in the dungeons

26:45

of avidya ignorance but when the spiritual Master speaks harikatha then all the darkness in the

26:52

heart is removed and it's Divya gandride prakashita

27:00

the words of the spiritual Master they go in as a needle they go in just like small words but

27:07

out as a plan he has a needle and out as a plow these words will go and create janatha yes

27:21

it creates a revolution in the heart change of desires change of lifestyle

27:27

change of intentions change of motivation change of ideas change of viewpoint change your vision of this

27:33

world and therefore what the demigods put together cannot do one pure vaishnava

27:38

Radha Krishna can do

27:46

has the power to liberate millions and millions of universes to associate with whom mahaprabhu to associate with which

27:53

mahaprabhu all the demigods come in so therefore Krishna appears in so many

28:00

forms he appears as vikraha the deity he comes at srimad-bhagavatam he comes as

28:07

the spiritual Master he comes asham he appears in so many forms and only and

28:14

only to uplift us only to reciprocate with us in this verse of srimad-bhagavatam that we read

28:21

it is said that the living entity can know many things but he can never know the Supreme Lord

28:28

he can never know the supreme god and what does this mean he has two meanings one meaning is

28:36

from the opulent conception from the mood of awe and reverence

28:42

we are very small we are tiny we are insignificant we are infinite Smo we are

28:47

Anu Atma and krsna's he's unlimited he's infinite he's the biggest we are the

28:53

smallest this is the opulent conception from the mood of awe and reverence my Lord you

28:59

are the biggest you are expanding you're unlimited you're present everywhere how can I know you

29:06

see foreign

29:21

when acharya writes my Lord you are so Unlimited

29:28

oh Krishna you're so Unlimited that if the whole surface of Mother

29:34

Earth is used as paper and the best pens are created from the

29:40

branches of the desire fulfilling trees of Heaven if all the ocean water is used as ink

29:49

and Saraswati herself is the author and if the lifetime of Brahma is the

29:55

time given still o Krishna you cannot be completely described

30:03

I repeat that it's so beautiful even if the whole surface of Mother Earth is used as paper

30:10

and and even if pens are made out of the branches of the desire fulfilling trees

30:16

of Heaven even if all the water surface and all the oceans is used as ink

30:24

and even if the author is Saraswati herself if the lifetime of Brahma is the time

30:30

spent given to write still she with that pen with her ability on the surface of Earth with that unlimited amount of ink

30:37

for all times to come she can't completely describe the glories of Shri Krishna

30:45

that's how unlimited the Lord is that's the opulent mood and now the madhuriya mood the mood of

30:53

sweetness is we can never never understand the love that Krishna has for us living

30:58

entity can never understand Krishna which means he can never understand the heart of Krishna

31:04

in the summer is the Sindhu one quality of Krishna is that Krishna is very grave

31:11

and I always thought gravity means someone who doesn't smile a lot doesn't laugh a lot doesn't joke a lot he's

31:16

always very serious doesn't even you know move an eyebrow that's what I thought is the definition of gravity

31:23

but then when I read Sheila prabhupada's definition of gravity in the negative devotion

31:28

prabhupada says gravity means the quality of a person where we can't know

31:34

what he's thinking we can't know what the person is

31:39

thinking that's gravity like the the person is so grave that we can predict what he's

31:45

actually thinking because if you've seen the past tense of Krishna one quality of Krishna is that

31:50

he's very grave but at the same time you can see he's always cutting jokes he has his hand on the shoulder of his

31:56

friends and he's trolling a beautiful play Lotus and he's glancing from end to end and he's cutting jokes and running

32:04

behind frogs and jumping like frogs and making sounds like a cuckoo and dancing

32:09

like the peacocks running behind parrots and jumping into the Waters of the

32:15

jamuna and trying to swim like the fish is there does all of these things playing with

32:21

his friends so how is he grave well it's because you can't understand what's happening in his heart

32:28

one time when this was in the beginning days of Krishna consciousness

32:34

um we didn't even Krishna Consciousness iskcon did not even have a temple we just had a storefront a small place a

32:42

little store in New York

32:47

and for the program devotees were cooking and there were prabhupada came to the

32:54

Little Kitchen there in the bank he said what what are you all cooking for the program

33:00

what is there for the cooking and the devotees were showing well we have

33:08

50 pounds of rice 50 pounds of this 50 pounds of sugar 50 pounds that one after another they were

33:14

showing prabhupada 50 pounds of this 50 pounds of this 50 pounds and bro what you said hmm

33:20

now what that meant nobody knew because gravity means you don't know what the person is thinking

33:26

that evening when prabhupada gave class at the storefront he was speaking on yoga

33:32

how Krishna will fulfill all your desires and Prophet said all the economies outside they're working 12

33:39

hours a day for one pound of rice

33:44

and look at us we have 50 pounds of rice 50 pounds of sugar 50 pounds and what

33:50

are we doing we're just chanting Hare Krishna so when prabhupada came to the kitchen

33:56

and he said hmm this is what was going on in prabhupada's mind that

34:02

like when someone comes to the kitchen and they're looking at the ingredients and they do hmm what would we think that

34:08

they're thinking we will probably we'll probably be thinking that they're thinking that there's enough ingredients

34:13

for cooking or maybe there's too much ingredients for cooking or maybe we'll use some for the evening maybe we'll use

34:20

some for tomorrow something like that but what Pro what was happening in prabhupada's heart

34:25

nobody could understand this is gravity so prabhupada used that in yoga in the

34:32

evening class to say how Krishna is maintaining if you just chant Hare Krishna and Sarah Krishna Krishna will maintain but on the on your own if you

34:39

try to hit your hands and legs as they say in Hindi try your best to get to Krishna to compete with Krishna look I

34:47

have so much then we'll have to really struggle hard even for that one pound of rice but when we surrender to Krishna

34:52

Krishna I am yours and I'm chanting and I'm preaching and I'm serving then Krishna throws in everything that is

34:58

needed so in this way we from the switch of understanding we can't ever understand

35:04

Krishna because Krishna is very grave and how much love he has for us we can't understand

35:10

Krishna loves us to No Boundaries no limits

35:16

absolutely no limits there's nobody who loves us as much as Krishna loves us

35:25

if we actually think about it the essence of the essence of the essence of the essence is Krishna

35:32

the body is very dear to us because the soul is present the soul is very dear to us

35:39

we are souls are very dear to ourselves because the soul belongs to the Super Soul

35:45

the Super Soul is very dear to us because we have an eternal connection with Krishna

35:51

that was dear most to us every part of Krishna is very dear to us and therefore naturally the body in which that Soul

35:57

lives is also very dear to us when there is fire or there is some Hazard or there's some accident or some

36:04

danger we run to save ourselves why because we love ourselves why because we belong to Krishna we love Krishna

36:11

ultimately there's no other object of love in this world it is only a matter of

36:17

time people are there with us because they have some agenda to meet somebody likes our

36:24

money somebody likes our position somebody likes um

36:30

our car somebody likes our influence somebody likes our Fame somebody likes

36:35

something related to us and therefore they are there when that thing is lost people don't come to us anymore

36:42

and you can see classic example classic example

36:48

when people get old how much ever they may have worked for the family

36:54

the house in which we live May belong to my grandfather for example

37:00

it's his money by which may be my father and let's say my from my father to me and from me to my son I'm just giving an

37:07

example inheritance property comes down maybe because of the hard work of the

37:12

grandfather maybe the grandfather has built the whole property maybe the house belongs to the grandfather maybe the

37:19

grandfather would have been very influential very rich but when he gets old and he talks even a little bit

37:26

people say don't keep telling me

37:32

it's the smallest things irritate I'm not saying it should it should never

37:38

one should offer one's obese and sister One Superior in the morning after waking up and at night before going off to

37:43

sleep there is no way around this principle of offering respect and

37:50

obeisances to our superiors our parents our grandparents our spiritual Masters actually bhubaneshwar Prabhu in iskcon

37:57

brindavan when he used to wake up some children from the gurukul in the morning one boy he used to not like to wake up

38:05

for mangularity so well vanisha probably used to tell him okay you wake up take

38:11

bath offer one obeisance to your spiritual Master then go to sleep

38:16

at least do that offer one obeisances to your spiritual master this is not a blanket statement it's

38:22

just for that child who was bored waking up early in the morning but when I

38:28

should propose point to us if you bathe and if you are for a person to Krishna then 99 percent you will not feel like

38:34

going back to the bed to Krishna to our spiritual Master to

38:42

our instructing spiritual Master shiksha Guru to our parents to our superiors everyone whoever is their Superior we

38:48

should never judge them so the point is when people get old

38:54

people don't talk to them people ignore them and when somebody who's all tries

38:59

to speak to them people get irritated they argue with them they even shout at them

39:06

um unfortunately many times all people are even put in old age homes

39:12

people this world is filled with such fleeting temporary flickering conceptions of love and affection now I

39:19

know that that old man or that old woman cannot give me anything so what uses she to me what uses he to me we don't

39:27

understand when we were in our diapers they were the ones cleaning after us and now when they are in their diapers

39:33

in their old age we let them go we leave them in fact children fight on

39:40

you should take care of the parents normally you should take care of the parents just fight on pushing the

39:45

responsibility on one another this is how this world is we take help from our parents we take

39:52

help from our grandparents we take help from our superiors and then being ungrateful we

39:59

forget we forget in the ramayana gratitude is considered to be a very

40:05

very important principle of intelligence you can see foreign

40:15

and divided on the basis of gratitude in ayodhya everybody is grateful for

40:21

everything in kishkinda sometimes they are grateful sometimes they are not and Lanka they

40:27

are never grateful in Sanskrit the three words used

40:36

means to always remember what people have done for us and be grateful

40:42

means just to not remember that yeah if you if you get reminded of it look how much they did for you oh then there's

40:49

some gratitude but then they this this forgetfulness

40:54

foreign means to hurt those who have done things

41:00

for us that's the worst so in Lanka Vibhishan was doing so much

41:06

for Ravana he was giving such sane advice and Ravana was bent upon kicking Vibhishan

41:13

out of Lanka the person the hand which is feeding

41:19

the hand which is feeding is the hand which is slapped

41:31

kicking him out and how about kishkinda this forgetfulness but when reminded there is

41:37

gratitude like you have Sugriva whose wife was Got Back by sriram in the

41:44

battle with Bali and sugary was just completely forgot srirama Chandra

41:50

now was his time to pay back just like Ramachandra helped Sugriva get his wife back so Sugriva now should help sriram

41:57

get mother Sita back but he took service from sriram and four months of chaturmas he forgot and then

42:04

when he was reminded oh then he helped ravana even went reminded he doesn't even agree that vibration is doing

42:10

something good for him sugriva agrees that srirama Chandra did something good for him but then he just forgot about it

42:17

and in ayodhya it is described that when SRI ramachandra and mother

42:23

Sita were coronated as the king and queen of ayodhya and they were powders being thrown in the air in the sky red

42:30

powder was thrown in Victory of ayodhya and mother Sita became very sad

42:37

and when asked the commentator writes that mother sita's mood was

42:44

looking at the red powder in the sky which was used in ayodhya just to decorate to have a festive occasion just

42:51

like people use for Diwali or let's say Holi to use colorful powders as

42:56

celebration when she saw red powder in the air

43:03

mother sita's wept it here thinking of the blood that was dripping from the wings of Japan

43:10

how Jatt are you laid down his life trying to project mother Sita in a battle against Raven

43:19

so even when she's on the highest platform of being the queen she is remembering the blood of

43:26

a vulture in gratitude this is ayodhya

43:32

if you get reminded or then you're grateful Lanka or the person who has done the most

43:38

we don't take care of them now we have to ask ourselves what kind of gratitude do we have in life do we have the

43:43

Gratitude of ayodhya do we have the Gratitude of kishkanda or do you have the Gratitude of Lanka

43:49

so this is the nature of love in this world mother does so much for the child and

43:55

when the child grows up he ignores the mother doesn't talk to the mother doesn't visit the mother in fact when

44:01

the mother tries saying something the child argues and says you don't teach me what to do I know better than you

44:07

this is Lanka consciousness this is the nature of love in this world

44:13

people use and throw each other in relationships in marriages in business

44:18

Partnerships there is absolutely no Selfless Love and therefore because we

44:24

are from that background we can't understand the love that Krishna has for us that was the point through which we

44:29

were explaining all this we can't understand the love that Krishna has for us we are like we are like insects chewing

44:37

the neem leaves bitter neem leaves of temporary conditional love in this world

44:43

what can we understand the mango jewels of krsna's selfless sweet love

44:49

to what extent Krishna can go Krishna remembers the activities that we

44:55

perform lifetime after lifetime foreign

45:39

on one side we have Krishna who is the best person purushottama

45:45

and our boss is purushadhama eating beef drinking alcohol flirting

45:53

women watching movies spitting tobacco absolutely no lifestyle and on this is

46:00

the boss that we are eager to serve and on the other hand is Krishna begging to get us back as the best personality and

46:08

we have no time for him this boss leads and heads only a few departments

46:14

maybe one Department maybe a whole Corporation maybe maybe a whole organization

46:20

but this was Krishna he is the lord of the three worlds upper middle and lower all that exists

46:26

this boss he hires us and when we don't perform he's the one

46:32

who fires us without any notice and this boss

46:37

even after we make mistakes a million times in million lifetimes he never rejects us and if we do something small

46:44

he remembers that lifetime after lifetime foreign

46:56

[Music] you perform offenses and sins like an ocean

47:01

and he doesn't consider but you perform bhakti in the size of a mustard seed and he looks it down a

47:08

micro microscope or a magnifying lens and say sees oh this person has performed a mountain of bhakti

47:15

this boss how much ever you do he will forget however little you do mistake out and

47:23

this boss how much ever mistakes you do forgotten and how whatever little bhakti you do remembered lifetime after

47:30

lifetime this boss pays us only till the time we work for him

47:36

when our performance comes down we are out this boss he gives us bhakti he gives us Prema

47:44

even if there are Falls and slips and forgetfulness and sins and offenses he still gives us

47:52

this boss once we leave the organization we have nothing to do with him

47:58

this boss he brings us and lets us stay in his home lifetime

48:05

after lifetime think about it whichever Corporation you work the CEO of that

48:10

company will never tell you after you retire you come and stay in my mansion

48:17

and here Krishna he brings us to his home

48:22

and makes us stay with him and serves us as the servant carries the Footwear of

48:29

Nanda Baba carries pots of butter on his head

48:38

dear devotees King Kola shekhara writes this boss

48:43

doesn't even see our work outside externally and this boss is sitting in our heart although we don't want to see

48:51

him he's always sitting a Super Soap looking at us that if now you turn towards me I am always there for you

48:59

King kullu Shaker writes only a fool will give up Krishna to serve anyone or

49:04

anything in this world

49:10

it is unfortunate if you fall in love with anything or anyone apart from Krishna in this world

49:15

there is nobody who can love us like Krishna did absolutely nobody

49:20

there is nobody absolutely no one who can love us like Krishna does when draupadi called out in the

49:26

mid-assembly there was some delay in why Krishna came

49:33

from South India in the SRI samprada he writes a commentary onto that section

49:39

and he explains draupadi is calling out to Krishna then why Krishna didn't come on time why

49:46

there was a delay he says because draupadi called out Govinda dwarakavasin

49:52

and Krishna was actually there only but to keep the words of draupadi true he went to dwaraka and then he came back

49:58

because means he who lives in dwarka

50:03

so if Krishna doesn't go to dwaraka then the words of draupadi are false and

50:08

Krishna will never let the words of a devotee go false this one this is why he says

50:14

oh dear Arjun you declare that my devotees never perish so that the words of draupadi never go

50:21

false she said dwarkawasi oh he who lives in dwarka Krishna was there only but he

50:27

went into araka and he came back so there was some delay and nobody is ready to help ropathy at

50:34

that point it's described he looked at krupacharya

50:40

for two reasons one because in his name there was the word kripa so if he doesn't shower Mercy now on draupadi in

50:46

that situation who will show our Mercy his name itself has kripa and second he's acharya acharya means

50:54

Guru and nobody can say one at the time of Calamity except one spiritual master

50:59

so oh your name is kripa plus are you if you don't help who will help

51:05

krupacharya looks as draupadi is looking and he just points upward

51:14

in the assembly he can do much so he's looking at drupati and he just points up look up

51:20

they're overly understood what took 700 verses for Arjuna to understand just one finger pointing

51:27

raupadi understood is way more intelligent and devotionally

51:34

way more deeper she understood and she called out to Krishna with all our heart with all her

51:42

heart Krishna Gopi janapriya and she was saying

51:50

I am offering everything for Krishna this sacrifice I am offering it to Krishna

51:55

Krishna had heard this before where did he hear this oh he had heard

52:00

this during this month of Margaret during the Katya nivrat when the little

52:05

gopis of brindavan who were five years old

52:10

they were offering everything Krishna that one month and they offered their clothes to

52:18

Krishna um Krishna stole the cloth but actually they offered the cloth to Krishna and

52:24

what did they say saravan Shri Krishna so Krishna remembered the word krishnapanam has two meanings

52:31

one is offering it for Krishna or another

52:36

meaning is Krishna and Krishna means so the little Gopi is there

52:43

being knowing the past present and future the

52:49

little gopis of brother knew at the end of their breath that property daily in the future will

52:55

need some cloth so all the little gopikas of braj

53:02

they put their cloth together and gave it to Krishna and said Krishna we offer it all to Krishna Krishna put

53:09

all that cloth together and now in Krishna the raupadi needed it he gave why because he saw such loving Spirit

53:16

the gopis of brindavan are giving it for draupadi and what is draupadi calling Krishna as Govinda dwaraka fasi

53:30

and gopis are calling Krishna as he who is dear to drofadi and when this cycle

53:35

was met all that cloth that the coffees gave for Krishna Krishna tied it together and gave it

53:43

how beautiful and this was the time

53:49

when draupadi was in her contamination period so according to Vedic culture during

53:55

that time it used to be so strict that a woman at that time she's considered to be very weak and tired so

54:02

she would not be allowed to do any work and nobody would even touch her she would be given only rest during those

54:08

those days but at a time when a man would not even touch a woman or even a woman would not

54:15

touch a woman because she's contaminated at that time what did Krishna do okay

54:25

[Music] foreign

54:33

[Music] appear as the fish incarnation of the tortoise Incarnation or he didn't come

54:40

as a dwarf Incarnation Krishna appeared as the cloth incarnation

54:46

and at a time of contamination when even a woman would not touch a woman

54:51

Krishna came and not touched but embraced Heart to Heart in protecting her he gave all that clot

54:58

then projected an embrace the opening mid-assembly and it just it is described that

55:04

tushasan's arms became tired trying to disrope and he was failing he had the

55:10

power of 10 000 Madden elephants but he failed he fell on his knees in

55:16

comparison to the cloth of krishna's unlimited love so therefore dear devotees this verse of

55:22

bhagavatam describes that we can never understand Krishna so from an opulent mood we can never

55:28

understand how big he is how great he is how powerful he is how intelligent he is

55:34

and from a sweet madhuriya mood we can never understand and fathom how much Radha and Krishna Love us how

55:40

unconditionally uninterrupted lifetime after lifetime Everlasting eternal love that they have for us

55:47

there is nothing that we can do for them to stop loving us

55:54

yes if we criticize their devotees then they are disappointed and for some time we will have to face

56:00

some reactions but that doesn't mean they will stop loving us those reactions are also expression of their love for us

56:08

so therefore in this verse we see how we can never understand krsna's law Krishna manifests again and again in the

56:15

form of srimad-bhagavatam to rescue us appears in the form of vigra deities to

56:21

rescue us Krishna comes in the form of the spiritual Master to rescue us Krishna

56:26

comes in the form of the Holy Name to rescue us Krishna comes in the form of rescue us Krishna comes in the form of

56:34

Tulsi plan to rescue us Krishna appears in the

56:40

pharmaceutical all the 12 forests of brindavan to save us from material

56:45

repeated birth and death Krishna comes in the form of advanced

56:51

vaishnavasan vaishnav songs acharyas

56:56

there is no limit of the love that Krishna has for a condition so

57:11

um

57:18

the greatest compassion that we can see the expression of krsna's compassion is

57:23

in finding pure vaishna was walking around in this world speaking that is the greatest expression of krsna's love

57:31

because books are there but we are lazy to open and read them but when pure vaishnavas lives that in

57:38

their life and selflessly speak harikatha and Hari kirsen to save us

57:44

that is the greatest that is the greatest expression of love

57:49

I would like to conclude today's discussion with one beautiful story about my Guru Maharaja and his Guru

57:57

Maharaj srila profile foreign

58:07

for the first time when he saw srila prabhupada's book bhagavad-gita as it is

58:14

now my Guru Maharaja did not know srila prabhupada so when he saw bhagavad-gita as it is

58:20

my Guru Maharaj explains in his own words in the class he thought

58:25

this sadhu has written as it is what does that mean other books are not bona fide

58:31

after Krishna and Arjuna only this sadhu has understood Krishna nobody else has understood Krishna what kind of pompous

58:38

bombastic way of presentation is that that this is as it is you know others are not as it is this is the actual one

58:45

so my Guru Mata said just to check what is so special in this bhagavad-gita

58:52

I tried to read said I read the introduction to bhagavad-gita

58:57

and my Guru Maharaj explains I was blown away with the presentation

59:03

he said I had read orobindo's Gita I had readilak's Gita I

59:08

had raped Mahatma Gandhi's Gita I had read vinod's Gita Radha Krishnan Dr

59:14

Radha Krishna my Guru Maharaj explained I read many parallel versions of the Gita but when I read Sheila prabhupas

59:21

bhagavad-gita as it is in the introduction I understood what a great Advanced mahabhagwat pure

59:28

vaishnav this is and I have committed such offense in My Mind by thinking like this

59:34

actually my Guru Maj explained when I read other bhagavad-gita it was like a jungle I

59:40

just got confused words are only not opening up verses are not explained but when I read bhagavad-gita as it is

59:48

everything was crystal clear uncompromising hard-hitting philosophical conclusion on bhakti

59:55

nothing else devotion yes we cannot understand Krishna

1:00:02

we cannot understand Krishna but if we perform bhakti Krishna comes to our level to reveal himself to us

1:00:10

like for example the child can never climb the shoulder of his father but if he cries the father will dip down and

1:00:16

lift the child and put him on the show see the child got there on the basis of his tears

1:00:22

a little child can never touch the ear of an elephant but if he can attract the

1:00:27

attention of the elephant and the Elephant will sit down on the floor then the child can touch and play with the

1:00:33

ear so similarly we can never understand Krishna but if we perform bhakti Krishna

1:00:40

reveals himself to the devotee

1:00:48

Krishna says in the Gita if you want to know me if you want to enter my Abode if you want to see me perform bhakti this

1:00:55

is the way this is the path [Music] Iram

1:01:02

gajendra says my Lord we can never understand you but my Guru Maharaja explains

1:01:10

in his commentary to the section where Krishna enters the mind of vasudeva

1:01:16

he explains that yes by gajendra's words the mind can never

1:01:21

catch Krishna but if you keep your mind as pure as vasudeva then Krishna will catch the mind

1:01:27

Krishna will enter the mind so by the performance of bhakti

1:01:32

the unlimited inconceivable Lord limitedly appears

1:01:37

before us we don't have the power to see him but he what is the use of calling him

1:01:44

infinite if that infinite Lord cannot re infinitely love the finite and appear

1:01:50

before the finite and give power potency to the finite to understand the infinite what kind of infinite is that

1:01:57

right so my Guru Maharaj said therefore later I surrender to srila prabhupada and I

1:02:03

apologized I have made such a big offense in my mind I doubted your position

1:02:09

own but now after hearing your bhagavad-gita I surrendered to you just like Arjuna surrendered to Krishna in

1:02:14

the start of the Gita I surrendered myself my Guru Maharaj said and he explained just like

1:02:20

in this world Krishna creates the universe and at the same time he gives Vedas so

1:02:28

that we can study similarly prabhupa did the same he created iskcon and gave bhaktivedanta book trust his

1:02:36

books as The Vedas so we can read them and can understand the whole purpose not

1:02:41

just the organization of iskcon but the whole purpose of why the world was created in this video devotees the

1:02:48

essence of today's talk was how we can never understand Krishna either through opulence or through

1:02:55

sweetness we can never understand his greatness as position and we can never understand his love that he has for us

1:03:02

but however if we perform bhakti through the different recognizing the different

1:03:07

limbs by which he appears out of compassion as Guru as the holy

1:03:12

name as the Abode as srimad-bhagavatam Etc if we take advantage of these Limbs

1:03:17

and perform bhakti then although we cannot catch and understand him Krishna reveals himself to us

1:03:24

this is why it is described [Music]

1:03:33

by performing bhakti throughout all our senses what happens

1:03:42

although we cannot catch Krishna Krishna lovingly Catches Us and Embraces us and

1:03:48

reveals himself to us thank you very much

1:04:24

yes Mother okay so dear duties please uh raise your

1:04:30

hands so that you can unmute the problems open for question answers

1:04:36

yes

1:04:47

please accept my respectful obeisances my question is you have said that uh

1:04:54

Guru can destroy the uh offenses so

1:04:59

could you please elaborate or give some examples from sastras or something which

1:05:04

can really you know signifiingly stay forever

1:05:11

well we can see in the life of jadai and madhai

1:05:17

they were going down to Hell on the basis of what activities they were performing

1:05:22

but nithyananda Prabhu had compassion on them and gave them love of godhead which was inconceivable for someone like

1:05:29

we can see foreign

1:05:41

as children of kuber bathing naked in the ganga and drinking alcohol dancing

1:05:48

with women who doing all of that can get Krishna in one lifetime it's impossible

1:05:56

but on the pretext of occurs not as many actually uplifted them it

1:06:01

was a it was the greatest blessing in their life he destroyed all their offenses and gave them the opportunity

1:06:06

to serve Krishna

1:06:13

Facebook

1:06:28

thank you so much prabhuji I just wanted to ask you that um I know it's gone in

1:06:35

bits and bytes but now I wanted to read the book because I've learned your uh

1:06:41

heard your bhutna series and that is very beautiful so which is the real book

1:06:46

to start with the iskcon uh this thing to know srila prabhupada ji uh the very

1:06:52

most honorable Guru and uh I had like Lord chaitanya how can I go

1:06:58

what is the second part I didn't understand what was it what is the best book for Lord caitanya to I wanted to

1:07:06

know more about Lord chaitanya and uh srila prabhupaji both of them so which

1:07:11

is the best book I should pick up like to read to know them more

1:07:17

so if you go to Veda base you can see here this is Veda base.com

1:07:23

um these are online books of course you can order them in person as well you have so many books that are there

1:07:31

a good book to start is I always prefer to start off with the small books you

1:07:38

can start with A Book Like Beyond birth and death this is a nice book uh path of perfectionism Perfection of

1:07:45

yoga is a nice book to start with actually Shila prabhupada said his books are like rasgulla's you can start from

1:07:51

anywhere but sometimes people see the size of the book and they get discouraged

1:07:57

so these are the small ones even king of knowledge rajavidya on the way to

1:08:02

Krishna yeah these are all small books to start with and once you've finished them then definitely Krishna book is

1:08:10

always there bhagavad-gita as it is and if you want to know about srila prabhupa the Lil Amrit is the best

1:08:16

source by satsured Swami Maharaj very authoritative and very authentic

1:08:22

past tense of prabhupada if you want to know more about SRI chaitanya mahaprabhu uh teachings of

1:08:28

Lord caitanya have conversations of caitanya mahaprabhu caitanya tamrit has the identity philosophy and pastimes but

1:08:35

if you just want pastimes then caitanya bhagavat is a nice book if that is if you find that also to be voluminous then

1:08:43

there is a condensed version of chaitanya bhagavat by purana pragnya Prabhu a disciple of Sheila prabhupada

1:08:48

1:09:01

and I would all like to listen to you whenever the qatars are happening so

1:09:06

thank you thank you thank you thank you so much and I pray my holy um how do you say I don't know obese

1:09:13

answers at your holy Lotus feet thank you so much I I offer it to my spiritual

1:09:19

master please go ahead

1:09:35

thank you so much for this graceful lecture I just want to before we proceed

1:09:40

I want to say I am not anybody shiksha Guru I am not any Guru it is a very high charm uh I am like a pharmaceutical

1:09:48

store owner I open up my store in the form of these classes and whoever wants

1:09:54

to come and take whatever they can take but provided you have a prescription of your own family physician you should

1:10:00

have your superiors on the basis of what their instruction is you can come whatever is relevant you can take but I

1:10:07

am not anybody's family physician I am not anybody's personal doctor I am I

1:10:12

don't counsel anybody I don't Mentor anybody I don't see myself as a counselor Mentor shiksha Guru for

1:10:19

anybody not one person in the whole world I don't see myself qualified my only desire is to be a disciple so it's

1:10:26

simply a pharmaceutical store you can come and take whatever you like on the basis of the prescription of

1:10:32

your superior but I am not anybody's family physician just wanted to mention that because many people use this term

1:10:38

even in their emails so this is a message to everybody that I I am not

1:10:44

qualified I don't have the Summers here and I don't have the time energy or in

1:10:51

any way any consideration I just want to be a nice disciple and a grand disciple

1:10:57

of Shila prabhupal and all of you are my friends all of you are my brothers all of you are my family we are all on the

1:11:03

same boat we are all on the same level thank you

1:11:10

my question is that uh whatever by mistake Deeds because of his family

1:11:18

situations uh how do we ask for humans from Krishna

1:11:24

if it is by mistake then you can break forgiveness it's Unknowing but make sure that even by mistake it doesn't happen

1:11:31

because if it's if there's onion and garlic Krishna will not accept and if that that

1:11:37

which has not been accepted by Krishna vaishnav can never put in his mouth so if there are accidental mistakes no

1:11:45

problem you just sincerely beg forgiveness but make sure that this doesn't happen regularly

1:11:50

uh would you but uh what if it's like uh our family is forcing us to eat uh and

1:11:57

in spite of having to see Mala I had to eat it before also

1:12:03

well if someone has allergy in the body what will they do what will family do will they force onion garlic

1:12:10

if someone has allergy let's say they get allergic symptoms to their body by eating onion garlic will the parents

1:12:16

Force they will not they will say that oh well you you know we will make sure that you don't get it so by having onion

1:12:23

garlic what to speak of allergy on the body we get allergy on the Consciousness because Consciousness becomes rajasik

1:12:29

and tamasik so we should not fight but we should

1:12:34

request and we should say that I don't like the smell of these vegetables or

1:12:41

whatever you call them they stink I don't like it my mouth stinks and I or you can just fake

1:12:48

something like after I eat it burns inside I feel acidic something like that uh the these lies speaking these false

1:12:57

City words these false words are more glorious than speaking truth because they're taking you closer to

1:13:03

Krishna so no problem hook or crook try to somehow make advancement don't hurt anybody don't

1:13:11

confront anybody but try to protect yourself

1:13:17

is trying I think to say something yeah I just wanted to request all the

1:13:24

devotees that uh just directly go to the question because everybody will say the

1:13:29

same thing over and over again so better to go directly to the question thank you so much

1:13:41

she is asking why did Arjuna desire to see krishna's opulence in 11th chapter

1:13:47

although he knew we can never understand it

1:13:56

show the whole world that Krishna is actually the Supreme Lord because someone will doubt otherwise for all

1:14:02

times to come well what's the proof maybe it was arjuna's love for Krishna that Arjuna proclaimed that you are God

1:14:10

but then Arjuna said I am convinced but people in the future will have doubts so therefore

1:14:16

you show your Universal form to me so that that will set a nice precedence for all times to come

1:14:24

thank you uh next uh please go ahead

1:14:39

I had a question that uh with this contaminated mind how should we do husky

1:14:45

as uh we cannot even focus on our rounds and uh even something like 60 round is

1:14:52

very hard so

1:14:58

please come into some points to help clean our mind

1:15:04

yeah actually initially there is some discipline we have to enforce

1:15:10

if we don't perform bhakti the mind will get more polluted than what it is at this point

1:15:16

if we don't perform bhakti and if we don't see good Association then we will be taking bad Association and that will

1:15:23

contaminate our mind more Shila prabhupada on his departure bed

1:15:29

in 1977 while dictating the four ports of srimad-bhagavatam he said always keep

1:15:36

good Association devotee Association

1:15:44

and says if you take bad Association the reaction will be bad always keep good

1:15:50

Association devotee Association so the the essence is even if the mind is

1:15:56

contaminated try to hear more about Krishna hear more about Krishna read more about

1:16:02

Krishna chant more about Krishna serve the deity associate with devotees who are more higher by their Association

1:16:09

slowly but surely mind will become purified and the more the Mind becomes purified the more natural taste on the

1:16:16

path of bhakti will rise and more that the more the taste Rises on the path of bhakti the more natural it is to engage

1:16:23

in this process it is not a force initially some force is needed but that's a very small phase after that it

1:16:31

is simply joyful I don't know

1:16:36

thank you very much

1:16:41

please go ahead

1:16:49

can I ask my question in Hindi

1:16:55

um

1:17:24

the question is if satyuga was such a long time and three times then why don't

1:17:31

we find archaeological evidences for Satya Yoga Yoga why is it that we only find sticks and

1:17:37

stones and plates and whatnot you know why do we find only wheels of the Stone Age actually it's not true you can find

1:17:45

deities which through archeology and you can throw chemicals find out how old

1:17:52

they are there are deities of varahadev that I myself have been fortunate to see which are 3500 years old

1:17:58

there are coins that I have seen with the impression

1:18:05

sriram and it is dated back to thousands and thousands of years

1:18:10

so these evidences are definitely there um actually there's a whole documentary

1:18:16

on YouTube you can search for the evidence of dwaraka underwater and you can see

1:18:22

of course the title I'm paraphrasing but you'll have to like keyword search uh you have startling uh evidences of

1:18:31

the city of dwarka um the coins the plates found from that

1:18:37

era deities which are of that era even of Greater Yuga so it's not true that

1:18:43

there are no evidences it's just that the atheistic scientific Community uh

1:18:49

pulls us down to Stone Age would say that maybe their forefather was a monkey

1:18:55

but my forefather were the saptarishis the seven rishis prabhupada said if you ask Darwin who

1:19:03

his forefather is he will say a monkey like if he goes to tirupati and they ask what gotra he will say you will say but

1:19:10

my forefathers were not monkeys because people don't agree to God you

1:19:19

have to now create a whole new drama of stone age and Neanderthal man and uh

1:19:25

this recipient and whatnot and just say life evolved a thousand years ago and

1:19:30

nothing existed before that and there were there was a big bang and everything came out of nothing it's just complete

1:19:36

hoax prabhupada would break the teeth of the scientific community and the mundane

1:19:42

materialistic atheistic community would say that what is this Instinct

1:19:48

like prabhupada would ask who is teaching this insect to run into this hole at the

1:19:55

time of difficulty prabhupada says that because this Soul has been this insect so many times in

1:20:01

the past he exactly knows at the time of difficulty go into this hole out of practice

1:20:07

when you ask a scientist you ask a materialistic atheistic person he will say Instinct it's just the Instinct of

1:20:13

the tiger to chase a deer it's the Instinct of a frog to jump It's the

1:20:18

Instinct of an ant to find a hole but prabhupada said what is the word instinct or what is what does it mean

1:20:25

actually there's no Instinct it is the Super Soul who's guiding from within but now because if you have to because you

1:20:30

have to hide that you just come up with the atheistic term called Instinct and the whole world says oh this happens by

1:20:36

Instinct that happens by Instinct so the scientific Community have hidden two

1:20:41

things the history of life and history of this world for this world

1:20:49

they say it comes from a big bang and for life they say it's just a combination of chemicals without so you

1:20:55

have to take away God for this world and you have to take away Super Soul For

1:21:00

Life and naturally they what they have in their hand are Sticks and Stones therefore there's no evidence for them

1:21:06

but if you agree to the presence of soul and Super Soul uh then there's so much to look into

1:21:12

every sign actually uh my in my childhood I was trained up by my shiksha

1:21:19

gurudev sripath bhakti Swami Maharaja who would say that Warner Eisenberg the

1:21:26

very great uh scientist who gave the uncertainty principle uh he would say

1:21:34

that when you take the first sip from the glass of science you are convinced God doesn't exist but

1:21:41

as you keep sipping at the bottom of the glass you find God waiting for you with

1:21:47

open arms to embrace so any field of science if you dig

1:21:52

deeper very deep you will come to the point of divinity

1:21:58

even srinivasa ramanujan a very great mathematician he said an equation to me

1:22:03

has no meaning unless it conveys the thought of God what does that mean it was at the time

1:22:10

of srinivasa ramanujan that the infinity symbol was created so those from a mathematical background you will

1:22:16

understand Infinity right so it was srinivasa ramanujan who said what's the use of speaking of any question if it

1:22:22

doesn't have infinity and what is infinity it's God so whether it's science or whether it's

1:22:29

mathematics physics uh any field for that matter including archeology if we actually go to the

1:22:36

essence of that science you'll come to a point Beyond human intervention you will say is

1:22:41

even doctors they say oh you just pray now everything's in the hands of God

1:22:48

he's giving CPR he's trying to revive the dying patient and saying you and

1:22:53

telling the relatives you pray to God ultimately it's in his hands so every field of science if you just go

1:22:59

superficially you feel God doesn't exist there's no evidence but if you actually

1:23:05

dive a little deeper and very very deep you can see that you come to a point of

1:23:11

appreciation of the almighty and Sir Isaac Newton and Max bone and Max Planck

1:23:17

so many scientists were there who were all God conscious

1:23:23

um max bone this is a final quote for this um theme Max bone one of the

1:23:30

fathers of the modern atomic theory he said when I looked into the atom in it I

1:23:35

saw the greatness of the Creator and the creation when he first looked into the atom he

1:23:42

said I saw the greatness of the Creator and the Creator or the creation so in this way in all fields of science you

1:23:48

will have evidence it's just that little knowledge is always dangerous

1:24:02

this video clipping I should be there in YouTube also so that we can get a clear understanding of uh who are the people

1:24:09

who say that uh whether God exists or not how the creation has happened so

1:24:14

this is very helpful provision um Anuradha you have time yeah we will take one last question because I have

1:24:21

one commitment after this as well please go ahead

1:24:51

the question is according to Vedic culture when a girl gets married her parents don't eat at in the house of her

1:24:58

in-laws what's the reason for this honestly these things nor do I agree nor

1:25:03

do I practice uh we have many many rules in shastra we

1:25:10

respect all of them but if you try following all of them we will lose the essence of krishna-bhakti we have only

1:25:15

one rule to remember Krishna at all times and we have only one rule to never forget him at all times if the in-laws

1:25:23

are devotional and they are devotees even if they don't invite go and accept prasadam there and if the in-laws are

1:25:30

against devotion they don't like bhakti you respect them from a distance but don't take anything there but this is my

1:25:37

only principle eating or not eating depends on whether Krishna has accepted it or no

1:25:43

if Krishna has accepted it even if it is someone not related to our body if they

1:25:48

invite us we will happily go to kirtan Katha and accept prasadir and if Krishna

1:25:54

has not accepted it even if our own relatives invite

1:25:59

we cannot eat we cannot accept that which has not been accepted by Krishna so this is our only

1:26:05

principle we don't follow any other principle we don't compromise from the highest standard if you start following

1:26:12

principles then should I keep the right foot ahead should I keep the left foot ahead should I turn to my right should I

1:26:18

turn to my left there are rules in shastra for everything and it's nothing wrong we should follow

1:26:24

all of them but because this question is asked to me I am saying life is too short remember

1:26:30

only one principle that which has been accepted by Krishna accepted if it is

1:26:36

Prasad whoever gives it accept it if it is not Prasad even if the dearest one

1:26:41

gives it I cannot accept it because my loyalty is not to my family or my relatives my loyalties to Radha and

1:26:47

Krishna if they have accepted and you're giving what they have accepted then I will accept it from you if they have not

1:26:52

accepted even if it is given by someone who is accepted by me I still cannot accept because my loyalty ultimately is

1:26:59

not to anyone in this world but only to Radha and Krishna this is the highest principle if this is followed all

1:27:05

principles are followed if this is not followed then even if a million principles are followed the highest

1:27:11

benefit is not there thank you so much for watching so yeah

1:27:17

yes I also have one question can I ask

1:27:23

please give me instructions don't ask me questions right

1:27:32

and that's why he took uh so long like you know for coming from dwarka

1:27:38

so so which Krishna should we remember prabhuji

1:27:43

well she remembered Krishna in brindavan therefore she said Krishna Gopi

1:27:48

janapriya dwarka Krishna doesn't sing and dance

1:27:54

with the gopis right he doesn't even sing and dance with his own Queens

1:28:03

he remembers and therefore we as followers of Sri

1:28:09

mahaprabhu we should remember Krishna and Prince

1:28:16

[Music] foreign

1:28:57

thank you so much very well thank you so much you for such

1:29:02

an enlightening place and the last one which you said I think I have to make a note once again I have to hear in the

1:29:07

YouTube my one last question uh is like you are saying about only only five

1:29:13

seconds maybe 10 seconds so just you were saying that uh about even about uh the Lord krishna's birth

1:29:20

that scientists have done uh that uh that video has been circulated in WhatsApp also I think

1:29:26

maybe three four years before I even I have also seen so is that true propagate

1:29:31

I don't know I haven't even seen the video I don't know who recorded the video

1:29:38

so I don't know I'm not so much on all this I I don't watch many of these videos Krishna fortunately keeps me so

1:29:45

busy from one class to another class that I don't get time yeah that's true

1:29:51

probably yourself so well even online now you're uh

1:29:59

I'm a little back yeah back it uh on hearing that because I hear on YouTube only so thank you so much pravaji for

1:30:06

your valuable time and Association and today the nectar is like by bhakti we can have the unlimited Lord within us

1:30:14

who is limited within us thank you so much pravaji for such a wonderful nectar and giving a relevant time as an

1:30:20

available time and Association to Enlighten us on this topic of Krishna and srimat mahagavatam and we expect

1:30:27
