The speaker emphasizes devotional etiquette, progressive spiritual cleansing, and spreading the sankirtan movement internationally.
And then again it comes back down. Then Guru is taking their remnants. Then you take Vaishnava remnants. It's got special Mahabal, special power Super Shakti Mahabal to eradicate the attachments of the material world and to fix our mind in devotional service. We would take Prasadam from Srila Prabhupada somehow or another. And that would give us so much spiritual mercy. I was always trying to get Prabhupada as Prashana by any means. That's Mahabhav. Even doesn't mention that taking the deity Prasad alone is Mahabhav. But the deer prasad Vaishnava becomes more potent from Prasad to Mahabraha Prashad. What's that again, Maharaj? If you're giving it to Krishna. That's why Prabhupada said the system we take and we give to Krishna so Krishna can absorb. That's why he encouraged Sankirta and devotee. They shouldn't take any money from the collection. They should give to Krishna and then get money from temple. Then they give to devotee and you use it for your. And a devotee doesn't use it for Krishna. He uses it for his sense gratification or something. Then karma is there. Devotee is always using his money for ka. Hopefully this way Sannyasi for this. Like Sannyasi rules are relaxed because. Because everything they're doing is for Ka. These rules are more strict for Grihasta. Grihasta guard their little collection of sukriti. We ask the Brahmanas. They are much more strict on these things. Traveling Sannyasi can even they can heed.
That.
In a more unregulated way. Sometimes because they are traveling Sannyasi they get burnt up. When someone is living in a Vihasta situation with their family in the traditional way of thought they'll be more careful to follow all the rules and regulations. That's why you find all these Martha Brahmanas or not only smart. Even Vaishnava Brahmana. They're very particular about these things.
In.
The south India, any traditional plains. So there was some story in Vrindavan. There was one bone picker used to pick out the gold from the teeth and things. Nobody would take also the money from him. All the Brahmanas if you won't take because he wanted to give money but they won't take, he gives to the deity directly them. But the Brahmanas for their own maintenance they don't want to take from him because too much karma involved. So there's Some factor like that. So the Brahmanas who are, if they are Vaishna, Brahmana, Prehastas, they are living by some charity. They'd be selective who they'll take charity from. In ISKCON we don't have that type of Brahmanas so much. We have people living in the temple, so they're maintained by the temple. So that question doesn't arise. This is the last. You have said take Prashad only. But we are taking only Prashad. In spite of taking Prashad, we are still falling down. Please kindly explain what is the proper way of taking Prashad. You should take Prashadam in a devotional manner respecting Prashant. Of course someone may take prasad. He may be also doing other nonsense. Taking Prasadam is one aspect we should do. So many aspects are there. Chant our wrongs, avoid the four principles. Avoid criticizing devotees. Say someone is taking Prashad but he's criticizing devotees. Naturally by criticizing, by committing Vaishnava Puraat. That will have a dampening effect on every aspect of our spiritual progress. Chanting Prasadam so many things when we.
Do.
That doesn't negate the effectiveness of prasad. Prashada is effective. But we may be doing some other thing which is detrimental. That's another aspect. It doesn't mean that Prashad doesn't have a good effect. If we're taking a bath like elephant takes bath afterward, elephant comes out and throws the dirt. That doesn't mean the water is not cleansing. But if elephant wants to throw dirt on a bath, it's not diminish the effect of the water. And that doesn't mean the water wasn't effective. It's a two separate things. Water did its job. But that elephant is throwing mud over the water. That's a separate issue. Prashad is doing its purification. Eventually that will have its effect. But if we're committing offenses or if we are seeing Prashad as food.
We.
Should also see Prasadam as the remnant of Ka. This is good Prasad. That's bad Prashad. I want this one. I don't want that. If we criticize Prashad, we should be careful not to commit any offense to Prashad. Not to waste Prashad, not to allow Prashad to fall on the ground. Things like that. Harik.

Save by getting the mercy of Chaitanya Mahapulu. Everyone started to chant and they are meditating on the lotus feet of Caitanya Mah Prabrabu. And at the time of nightfall they would all gather together in their houses and they would chant Kirtan one giving, clapping.
It.
So by the people of Navarre they're chanting the holy name. In all the towns of Navadip. The Sankirtan was going on. And whenever they saw Satchinandan Chaitanya Mahprabhu, they would run to him and want to embrace Him. The Lord would give his own flower garland to others and taking a straw in his teeth, he would beg them day and night, day and night, my dear brother, simply worship Lord Krishna Sarvojara. When the people would see the Lord, they would cry. They took the order of the Lord completely. And this way they're all chanting the holy names of the Lord, clapping their hands in this way. Caitanya Mahaprabhrabudi gave his causes mercy to so many people. And he, although the Lord himself, he came and we put a straw on his teeth. And he was begging everyone to take up the chanting. What an inconceivable pastime. No one can imagine. But we are so unfortunate that we are not taking the mercy of the Lord. It may be difficult to have that love for Krishna. But if one has the love for Goranga automatically that brings the love for Krishna. Gaura Prema and Krishna Prema is the same. You cannot separate love for Krishna and love for Gauranga. Gauranga, who cannot fail to be moved by his compassion to go with the straw in his teeth and beg everyone to take the chanting of the holy name. Now when you go to Udupi, we find that there's worship of Krishna. After in the evenings they put the deity on a julan and they sing some bhajans and kirtan. Someone told me yesterday that this was started after Chaitanya Mahaprabhu went there and told the Tattavadis, the Maghwa followers that the essence of all the scriptures Allah put is Kirtan so that they should be doing Sam Kanam Bishno so they should be doing Kirtan. And since that time they included that kirtan as part of their daily ritual. That could be verified what exact date they started. This was 500 or 480, 90 years ago. In any case, Lord Chaitanya, he had visited all over South India also. Although here he spent the first 24 years of his life in Aladdin. Then 18 years he was in Jagannath Puri. And 6 years he was traveling through South India as well as to Vrindavan. So Lord Chaitanya belongs to everyone. Because he said that his message will go to people all over the world. And he gave the order that all people of the world should take up the Sankirtan movement. Of course, especially those people of Bengali nor Isaac. They got so much time of Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Then the people of south and western and northern India they also got the mercy of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Until Srila Prabhupada came. The people in the rest of the world, they were deprived from the mercy of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Occasionally some Mayavadis would go and tell everybody they were Gods. But nobody was giving anyone Bhakti. So therefore there was no change of heart. Everybody already thinks they are like God. They already think that everything should be done for them. So telling people that you're not just an important person but you're the supreme person doesn't help them at all. But if we understand our relationship that actually we are the servant of the servant of the Lord and we engage in the real supreme personality of Godhead service. Then we get all perfection in our life. Srila Prabhupada. By bringing this message of Caitanya Mahaprabhu Bani of Gonga. He actually changed the hearts of so many people. We can see here why this is Chaitanya Mahaprabhu process. He would just talk to people, request them to take out the chanting. And then they would do so and their lives would be changed. You are tell that you also get your friends your to get everyone to chant. People by chanting. They were just seeing Lord Caitanya. They were crying in ecstasy. They were so happy.
Sa.
That is the causes mercy of Lord.
JT.
That mercy is still expanding. Go on expanding until the floods. Whole world that depends on all of you. The more seriously you take up this instruction of Lord Chaitanya. It's like someone giving you seeds. Here's some seeds you go home and plant. The reason why there's so many rose bushes here. Someone has Planted the seedling. So you got the seed from Goranga representatives. Now you take the seed and you give it to others and let them plant it. Be planted in the heart simply by chanting and watering the plant.
It.
If we're chanting and we're not feeling the bliss, it's described as because of our offenses. It's not because of any deficiency in the chanting. It's because of our own offenses. And we should then very carefully avoid offenses. And this way we can get the full benefit of chanting the holy name. So here you visiting Ayapur Dam, Novadip Dam. This Navativ dam is Gupta Vrindavan, eternal abode of the Lord. Every activity you performed here in devotional service has thousand times benefit. So many spiritual blessings are achieved simply by remaining here. So those who remain three nights is also very special Kalpavash. The more benefit is there walking here to the Jagannath temple also you get a special mercy on this way. Taking the mercy of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu with you. Go back to where you are living. You can give out this mercy to everyone. And as Lord Chaitani instructed, chant Hare Krishna in your homes. Wife, children, parent, father, everyone together they can all chant. He's very eager to hear the story of Simon Deep. It's a very long story. You heard so many times. How many want Jagannath Mahaprashad Special service you have to perform when you're seek Jagannath. The stake is Mahaprashada. Any questions in the class? Yes. What should one do in a situation like that? Continue chanting Hare Krishna praying to the.
Lord.
To quickly purify you. As Srila Prabhupada said, this is a gradual process. You have to go on to Saik. If you start to clean the floor, if it's not clean the first time, you have to go on cleaning, sweeping, cleaning. In the Gundicha Marjana pastime, Lord Caitanya showed how he cleansed that Gundicha temple and Shakannathpuri. First taking out logs and stones and twigs. And he grows kind of things that have fallen in the temple because it's unused for a year. Then after taking out those things, then he swept. Then after sweeping, then they washed with water. After washing with water, then they scrape the cracks to get every last trace of dirt out. That way we have to go on cleansing. We finish one level of cleansing and we say, oh, there's still so much dirt. First you see all the logs and twigs and clean that out. You think, okay, now everything will be clean. But no, there's so much dust. You clean that little sand and stones and things are there by sweeping and still you see the dust is there. You clean that out and still you'll find that in the cracks there's other contamination. So the devotees are always finding more things to clean. And that's what we engage ourselves in. Hearing and chanting the transcendental voice of Lord Krishna really cleanses the consciousness. Any other question? Hare Krishna, what's the next program?
