Sam it's it Translation and we said more. The water which had washed the lotus feet of the kumaras and sprinkled it over his head. By such respectful actions the king as an exemplary personality showed how to receive a spiritually advanced personality Report Chichaitanya Mahaprabhu has said Aponi Acharya Prabhu Jire Chigaya it is very well known Elect Maharashtri is better use.

After this the king took a water which had washed the dundee tutus which had washed the lotus feet of the kumaras and spinning it over his head. By such respectful actions the king as an exemplary personality showed how to receive a spiritually advanced personality. Purple.

You doing?

After this the king took the water which had washed the lotus feet of the kumaras and spinning it over the scan. By such personal actions the king has an exemplary personality show how to receive a spiritually advanced personality. It is very well known that Acharya he himself practiced when he was preaching as a devotee. Although he was protected by several j personalities to be the incarnation of Krishna, he never agreed to get addressed as an incarnation. Even though one may be an incarnation of Krishna but especially in troubles by people, he should not advertise that he is an incarnation. People will automatically accept that he has through the due course of time. Pitumaraj was ideal Vaishnava king. Therefore he taught others by his personal behavior how to receive and respect saintly persons like the Kumaras. When a Shaindy person comes to one's home, it's a very custom first to wash his feet with water and then disorder over the heads of oneself and one's family. For you are an exemplary teacher of the people in Jainism.

Super bowl receptions and Prithu Maharaj himself showed how to do this even Krishna. We read yesterday how Krishna he also received even his older godbrother Rupert Sudham. This is a standard practice which is chimed in all the Nidic sutures. This prophet said it's the Vedic custom to wash your teeth with water and sprinkle water over the head so oneself and one's fingers. Even the great king did like that. So we have many aspects in our culture and Prabhupada wanted that this culture should be preserved in this. The basis of this is anyone who is in contact with Ka or who is dear to Ka is also very.

Dear.

Is very worshipable. When Lord Shiva was asked by Parvati that there are so many kinds of worship which worship is the best? Then Lord Shiva replied there are many kinds of worship amongst all the worship, the worship of Vishnu is the best with one exception, my dear Goddess. That exception is worshipping goals, objects which are connected or related with Krishna. So devotees of Ka are related to Ka. The holy Dhamma is related to Ka native to Krishna. So by respecting the devotees and those objects, persons related with Krishna, Krishna is even more pleased. Although one doesn't do this in front of the Lord, but one does according to a certain etiquette. But this way one actually pleases Krishna more. If we worship Ka and Vishnu and supreme, that is a problem. It's not that we worship his devotees, then we have to worship them as devotees. Respecting our Vaishnava is okay. If we say the Vaishnava, you are God, you sat up. It's not so easy to be God. Guru, we worship as having the quality of God. You say Hindutva or you say.

When.

We put TWA together, it means of having a quality, of having a quality of a Hindu having the quality of God. So that Haritva. It doesn't mean that the Guru is not. That means Guru is having the quality, some quality that God has given. Prophet explained that Guru is having the quality of mercy. Krishna has got unlimited qualities. One of his qualities is mercy. So the Guru is considered to be the mercy incarnation of Ka. He's giving a mercy out. He's giving out the mercy on behalf of Krishna. Therefore he has sections as a representative of Ka having equality of Krishna, not that he is Ka himself. When his divine great Srila Boychar Naruna Bhakti Vedanta Swami Prabhupada arrived in Boston, the United States in 1969. It was a very big reception for him in the airport. Devotees. About 250 devotees, 200 were there and everyone was chanting and dancing, waiting for Prabhupada to come out from the immigration and customs section of the airport. He was arriving from India. He had been India when he was sick and got some Ayurvedic cure. And he was returning back. So the devotees were very happy. He had them out for more than six months. Sit in the back, if you name this, sitting in front. In fact behind that there was like a screen. And Prabhupada raised his DPEG over the screen. You couldn't see inside the customer.

You could see people's feet.

And then there was a six foot high screen. So he raised his DPEG above the screen. We could see his D bag and everybody exploded. He started jumping and dancing very ecstatically. In fact, one devotee, when he saw Prabhupada sleeping prevo. He had a cartos in his hand. He had the other devotee with the cartels and blood was coming. But that devotee was so ecstatic to see Prabhupada that he was jumbling and dancing. Even blood was pouring. He wasn't aware of it. And some newspaper guy, you know, he took the shock and I said, wow, these people are really in some super, super state. Blood is pouring, smiling and dancing. You never see somebody smiling and jumping in ecstasy with blood coming down. So even I put in a pamper. These people have got some really ecstasy. It was obvious anybody could see he was injured. But he was so happy and smiling he didn't know also he was injured till much later. So for them that the newspaper guy could figure out, that's the way. These guys are not faking it. Nobody can fake such a thing. Then Prabhupada came out from the doorway. Everybody paid obeisances in the airport. Just the newspaper guys on television, they're pooping, you know, they don't know what's going on. Each one of us had a garland. So right in the airport we did a reception. We offered Prabhupada a garland one after another. So many garlands that he covered his head. He had to take the garland off and put put on the side again. He covered his whole head with the garland again into God. So I was super welcomed because the bodies were feeling so much separation from Srila Prabhupada. Then Prabhupada gave his lecture. He thought maybe this Westerner, the newspaper everywhere wondering what is going on her. And he explained, see that guru is offered all kinds of respect. Senior devotees are offered respect. Even the four kumaras are not guru of Pinchu. But they are respected by guru for everyone. Because they are very senior devotees in the universe. They are the direct mental son of Brahma. And they personally got a blessing of Vishnu. They went to spiritual world and came back. So there are very special personalities. So they are respected by everybody. In fact, whoever is a guru or whoever is the senior in the world, it should be given respect. Then Prabhupada, he was explaining all these things. But then he said, you see, so Guru is offered respect as ambassador or like a representative of God. G O D. But he is not God. He is devotee of God. However, the guru says that he is God. You see that very offensive. He is not God. Instead he is opposite. Instead of God, he is opposite dog. He is good as a God. Nobody should claim they are God unless they are really God. When Krishna told Arjuna ahamsa bha bhabh, everything is coming from me. And he said so many things to how he was God himself. Then Arjuna said are you telling me I believe you? Or maybe others they won't believe. So he could show me your universal form. Then we could believe that anybody who's claiming to be God publicly show their universal form. They can be in India all the newspapers, all the doordashan, television, cablevision, everything will be there to film their universal form. They can show thousands of people. I'm sure if someone will show, they can fill out one whole auditorium, one whole stadium. You see that anybody who's claiming to be God, they can show the universal form. Just like Krishna showed universal form on battlefield of Kurukshetra, millions of people saw it. Not only Arjuna, millions, everyone could see. So not a bluff, not a cheap thing. You see, I once one time met one Shankaracharya Puri. He was worshipping Raha and Krishna deities and we had some discussion over. It's not relevant to the thing here, but in the end of the discussion I asked him that so you are worshipping Radha and Krishna, so you are a devotee of Radha and Krishna. He said oh no, I am Radha and Krishna, I am God. And I was very offended by that. Actually I said but Radha and Krishna they are Nava Yogana, they are eternally young. But you are a very old man, you are growing old. So if you are Radha Krishna you will say this is my Leela. Everyone going that Leela. We are not going all that Leela is nothing special. If you stay God then people can believe you are admission. So this Mayavad is claiming to be God, but doesn't make any sense. If you know that's a very offensive action. See those who are claiming to be God, who are not God, they're offensive. This like somebody today hearing quantum declares I am chief minister of the state. Baham is state. Here he starts with me, he'll be arrested. He cannot be. He said no, no, I announce him when he goes to the police station. You listen to me, I am the chief minister. You'll be there with crazy report insanely signal or will he arrest sign with somebody who declares that our prime minister in the country who's not voted as the prime minister, he'll be arrested. If somebody is telling me I'm God, I'm making the sunrise and set everything, whether they are saying or not is rising and setting their moat. Irrelevant, irrelevant. Is actually very offensive. So previously there was government and kings who would take action if somebody declared he was God. So nowadays anybody can say anything. Secular government, nobody bothers. So even people who are declaring and God Thakur, when he was a magistrate, there was one Falgu Baba who was training to the avatar. He was showing so many magical tricks. He was giving people gifts and showing them some magic powers. So everybody thought he was a God. Then he was also having visits with people's wives. He said, I am Krishna. So he went to do Rasa Leela and he was feeling big disturbance. So husbands were complaining to the government. This person, what he is doing, the wife is like, you know, it's all right because he's Krishna. So it's rather that I'm unfaithful. So then like this Bhakti deving of Thakur, he had him aristot. He actually was some kind of a tantric. He had some some kind of powers, some worshipping Devi or something. So he cursed Bhakti Bino Chakur, the new guy. My family will die. So he and his family got very sick. But he didn't stop. He prosecuted the case personally and he had the person convicted. They were to take him away to the prison. The police didn't want to touch him. The spies took him out from his hair. So the Bhakti didn't talk to a person. When I cut off all his hair, apparently he had big hair. So even here he was keeping some kind of black magic. And with that he could control people's minds and he could do things. Once his hair was cut off, he was powerless. He didn't have any more power. You know, just trying. And he got off to that. Similar things happened in ORISSA. Not only 40, 30 or 40 years ago. Some guy was also claiming like that to the avatar of Ka. And he would go and sit in the temple and close the door, open the door, he'd be gone. He said, he has now gone to Jagannath temple to bring Mahaprasadam from Jagannath. He closed the door open again and there he'd be sitting with so much hot prasad. He said, wow, it's amazing. He went to Jagannath temple, which was 400, about 200 km away and brought all the prasad. He gave all prasad to everybody. See, he is very popular. People worshiping him. Somehow it's okay. Why don't people say they're yogis? Why don't they say I'm a tantric, I'm a yogi and give people blessings why they have to save their God. They want to go one step further and say I am actually God. It starts to achieve, you know, even if he could fly and go to the Jagannathu and being Mahapastra, that's not the qualification of being God. God means you have to create the entire universe. Even Brahma creates the universe. He's not God. He's only an empowered incarnation of God to be Goddard. It's not a joke. You don't become God. When Krishna was baby only a few weeks old, sucking the milk from mother Yasora Putin that came to kill him. He sucked the life off of Putin. He was God already. He always is God. He just playing the part like a baby. Oh, he looks like a baby, but he's got all the potency. That's the beauty of it. When he was seven years old, six years old, he lifted Bohra mule with one pinky, one finger. He's already gone certain to become when he was dancing in a last year with a million movies. And he makes a million forms. Let these bogi yogis make million form and show they can fill out one stadium. Make 60,000 forms will be happy Krishna when he were in Dwarka from one Krishna, 16,000 Krishnas came out and went each queen of Dwarka simultaneously. Let them do that simultaneously. They can be all the places. It's not of love to be God. You just love people. People are so gullible. Anybody can claim to be God, they accept it. And it's very offensive to who is the living God. Let the people be know who's God. The four kumaras can fly in the air. They could create a universe if they wanted. They could create planets. They can fly even to the outer this universe, to the Vishnu Loka. How much power the four kumaras have. They never claimed to be God. Never. That's why they are so respectable. But we are making such a cheap business nowadays. Anybody can claim to be God and people believe it. So we should not be gullible like that. Nobody. We respect anybody. They may be a sadhga, they may be a sadhu. But if somebody claims to be God, he should show universal form. Or he should show a million forms, then we believe it. Otherwise why we should believe it? Just because he says. Krishna says in Kali Yuga, I never come and claim to be God. If I come, I come in disguise. It's called ch all the time. He never claimed to be God. He never claimed it. But we don't claim to be God. We know because scripture Says how you know who's God. He should be predicted in scripture. He should have the qualities which are mentioned in that scripture. And he should do something that nobody else can do. Something really supernatural. Even a yogi can only make sense forms. They cannot make hundreds. And only Krishna can get people a pure Bhakti. Satya was predicted in that scripture that Krishna himself said without Kama and Hell Yoga as a devotee and I the severe love of Krishna, the severe darkness. Now the Bhagavad also says but he won't be blackish color, bluish color. He'll come in other colors. And he will come as a devotee. And he will with his associates and he will distribute the Sankirtana. The process of chanting the names of Krishna this way. Many other places it was predicted that Lord will come and Kali Yuga to the Spirit. This chanting of the holy names. That's why we accept Raj Chaitanya as Krishna as a devotee. Otherwise if it's not mentioned in scripture, we won't accept. So like that we worship the devotee. Even we worship Shiva, Durga, Ganesh, Morgan and all the Devas as devotees. Because they are great devotees of the Lord. There are many also Ishvara, Ishwaris in the universe. But there are also devotees of the Lord. So for us it's more important that there is a devotee than there is some subordinate controller. Because the devotee is even to worship them is also even more pleasing and worshipping Krishna. Krishna is pleased that we worship them as their devotees. They are pleased also. Pumaras are elder brothers to Shiva. But their role is different. Their role is only to be guru. And Siva has multiple roles. He is Ishvara plus he's also a guru. He's also a devotee. He's always meditating. He's chanting on his Rudraksha and he's meditating on lotus feet of Sankarshana in chanting the names of Rama. Chanting Rama, Rama, Rama. He's Rishabh Jatasam who is the greatest devotee should never be disrespected. Should we respect him as devotee? He is more pleased. Even he told our thank you for watching our video videos.
