Ra, just 16, verse 5. You read the first dev. Am Jesus. Jesus Ra, O my wife, who are very much attached to household life. If the principles of religion, economic development and satisfaction of the senses are properly followed in household life, one's activities are as good as those of the transcendence. I wonder whether there has been any discrepancies in following these principles. In this verse, the deity has been addressed by her husband Kasya Pamuni as Rihabebili, which means one who is satisfied in household alike with sense gratification. Generally, those who are counsel alike pursue sense gratification in the field of activities performed for material results. Such kingdom evis have only one human life, such gratification. Therefore it is said the householder's life is based on sensory identification, and therefore the happiness derived from it is very meager. Nonetheless, the bathing process is. Sometimes it is. But even in household life, one can adjust his activities according to the regular principles of dharma, ar, kama and moksha. One's aim should be to achieve liberation. But because one cannot at once give up sense gratification in the Shastras, there are injunctions describing how to follow the principles of religion in demonic development and sense gratification, as explained in Srimad Bhagavatam 1 battle translation. All occupational engagements are certainly meant for ultimate liberation. They should never be performed for material being. Those who are in the household life should not think that religion is meant to improve the process of household essence gratification. Household life is also meant for advancement and spiritual understanding by which one can ultimately gain liberation from the all material dutchess. One shall be named in household life with the aim of understanding the ultimate goal of life. What are the principles of religious economic development and sense gratification of being properly followed in terms of Shastra conjunctions? As soon as one deviates from the injunction from the Shastra, the purpose of household life is immediately lost in confusion. Let's pray. Go back to the Dante as well. The translation purport to the Srimadhara of Tamil. 8th candle, 16th chapter, 5th verse. Process emotion was meditating, performing his prosperities. Now he's coming home after some time and he's seeing that his wife is very morose. Therefore she was lamenting magnificent. So he is trying to find what could be the cause of her lamentation. This is. This is actually very profound because usually when we are suffering, we look at the median cause of the suffering. The median cause, whatever the interruption that says go, that's usually seen as the cause. So he's seen at a Much higher level. They're not following maybe the causes and not following the principles of Dharma. Arthur Kama some discrepancy in these activities. Everything we do in the ten of wands, there's a reaction for them. So if we do things according to the Shastric injunction, then there's no reaction or no negative reaction. This can help us to progress towards Ka consciousness through self realization. It says here, if we don't follow this rules, then we get all kinds of confusion and the whole purpose of the household life is lost. Household life is not eventually just an unlimited license for sensory application. But it's supposed to be an opportunity to continue on its progress in spiritual life on a different platform. On the platform of a family address all kinds of injunctions about what a family is supposed to do in order to progress in as much of life. So these different questions he's making his highlighting many of these rules for family life. Receiving gas. This verse is properly earning money, properly doing their daily religious activities and properly enjoying sense gratification according to the principles. All these names are only as he goes to the movie, asking every question. Seven questions. Each of these questions is highlighting a different principle. Of each of the ashrams there's a different principle. Just like the Brahmacharya ashram is to do spirit and to do baby chapa and Diksha. This is their serve. As far as there's this Dhana charity yam to perform sacrifice. And this type of Kaeps needs them also to do everything as a devotional service for Devonis. Actually, for all the different ashrams there's a common thread that we do everything for Ka. But here this is just discussing Siddha household rape without necessarily specifically doing everything as a devotional service. Interacting with things according Ka because they follow the scripture. Just like for the Viasads, there's all kinds of rules. Then they can procreate. The poems of Manu it assigns what day is allowed, what day is unallowed. Ashma is not allowed. Aganas is not allowed. Purima out. Rashad is not allowed. Holy days are not allowed. And this and certain kinds of restrictions. So if we have this happen, just like the twilight is not allowed. Cassiapa told his other wife Titi not to approach him at the twilight to wait what she didn't follow. As a result they got two demons as us. Everybody wants nice children and wants. There are so many factors. They have the children also having a Krishna conscious child. It's very important to pray for the child in the morning. On the day you want to appropriate and pray for the deities, for our Krishna conscious child. And then that lady chant extra rounds. Because the consciousness of the husband and wife at the time of their conception will dictate what kind of consciousness the child has. We are living in Bengal, next to nearby to Katwa, in a place called Jatinda. It's only 45 kilometres from Mayanpur on the other side of the river. It's an interesting place because Shrimad Sachary also later after getting initiated and coming back from Vrim, he was constructed by certainly as the astronaut, by Narahari Thakur. So Narari Thakur, because he was asked by the king of Pirbhu to be his guru and to become a king's guru, you're supposed to be married. Because the king, he got to ask all kinds of personal questions related to his Vinasta Ashram. And sometimes when Krishna conscious being Savyasa, we have to refer the disciples to senior Vihastas. The Raj Guru can't really refer to the king to somebody else. So tradition has been that he should be a Vihasta. So he didn't know whether to accept this role as the king's guru. So he asked Darahari Tapur and he gave them the advice. Auspicious kingdom, Krishna conscious. In those days, if the king accepted a particular Dharma, the whole kingdom tended to go that way. Previously, Malaysia was a Hindu metric. According to history, 600 years ago, the last Hindu king was Parameshwar Maharash. He was somehow over there, but he was separated from India at that time. So they were actually Hindu kings. So originally, maybe the king Orissa had settled down there still in that patient body. Never changed to Islam to remain the Hindu kingdom of parts of southern Java and Indonesia. But this particular kingdom in history says that a trader from Arabia brought a princess, an Arabian beauty and said in an offer that he could marry her. He became very inanimate and said the only thing is he has to convert because she's a Muslim, she can't convert suddenly. So just for a woman he converted. And since then Malaysia became an Islamic country. A few Hindu Malays, a few thousands of millions. So it was a tradition before when Asoka became Buddhist and the whole empire became Buddhist. Because they didn't force people because of being remorse. So it was a good thing. The whole kingdom was Ka conscious and was being focused in the lifetime of Vaishnava principles. It was. It doesn't have that people were forced or anything, but it was just that all the festivals and all the things were oriented in that way. Eventually it was properly preached. Then it would be very auspicious. Conscious enough, you won't be affected by me and Mihasa. It was a good opportunity to preach to Miyazaka Ashram. So there's his ashram is there there's many deities. And there the place where he was meditated when he went to find Radharani's lost two pors. I think there were two pors were lost. He meditated from there. There was a place where Rajam got stuck over and Shri Vasacharya met Rauchakra Kami Raj. He was in a wedding procession and there was a big ban and he was being carried upon him. And he was going to get buried in a place called Moyur and the Rud. This happened to pass by the ashram. I think they end in tree. So they sent the palm to God that they were Baris is hard work to carry some 50km. Every few kilometers will take a break. So they put a machine there. Meanwhile the Maranari of Imam Tree wants to churn the tree also churning their java. And they see this beautiful young man and they tell him they're going to get married. You know, they start talking. Actually it's like he's going to prison. The other said, you know, he's such a very beautiful person, very handsome person. Too bad he's going to use all this for sense gratification. If we use this beauty for Krishna service and we saw his wishes the others who gets actually human form of life is meant for serving Krishna. But instead people waste their whole lives just in sensory edification and serving the body. In fact we partner talking to each other. He's sitting like this, six feet away. He's hearing every music today. And they talk loud enough that he can hear only. So the whole way that it started off after 15 minutes or so the whole way he's thinking what is the purpose of my life? What am I doing? He goes to the marriage for many things in a way that I did not. I wanted to go back. I was being one of the two. So he came back and went to ashram there. And then he got initiated by Sri Rasacharya. And then he became a constant companion of Marah later on and they said this interesting past name happened that they could have said look, you got married and you left your life. It's not proper. At least you should go back and give her a Vishnu consciousness. Give her. She didn't feel anything, just left her. So then he agreed to go back to wherever she went he went back to see her since she thought that he's only concerned that they would self gratification is not so important. He's got the highest thing in life he's got Krishna consciousness. I want to get from him the Krishna consciousness from my husband. So the whole vent talking about Krishna and Shiva really, you know, inspiring everything she got helping inspect her and how to perform the son of Bhati Namjoon hair boning. And at the end she was so much grateful to her husband for getting her Krishna passes as she made her obese and said her head touched his foot so there was a red poo on her foot. And then he went back to the ashram. They say that Shrilli Rasachary saw a kuko about his foot said do you have any bath? After there was a wife and hidden or sent him or something of chastising severely chastised him Then that somehow Naruto knew them nothing actually inherited inherent relationships with God didn't have the result. So sometimes I would have been thinking and staking at Hindi but then even then the disciples all his parents have order of Mochitania to have him recessive that he was in his house he asked his father how did Lord Chitanya take How do you get the name Chittenden Mass? So his father started explaining how he went and saw what she channeled how he was the whole circle for too long but how they told him time is word he was there front row seat as he got changing his cloth getting his hair cut by the barber. The barber foaming ecstasy on the hero Roshitanga Roshitanya being living to this Manu he beg Worshamiya Sahi Lord Chaitanya giving the Sanghyasa mantra to Krishna Bharati Kira Bharat getting a bunch of acknowledgment to Lord Chaitanya and then giving him the name Sri Krishna Chaitanya. So then he heard that Sri Vishta Caitanya then he disliked it was just overwhelming the whole time he says chantin Sri Vishna Shaitanya for months and months. So when he is telling all his pastimes to his son he's remembering when she's entertained and falls on the ground and he's just crying. Then his son his father's big love for Shetania makes the he puts his hand on his feet of the father and he begins chanting shakers in Chaitanya Shakers and Chaitanya the wife she's in the kitchen cooking well, lunch or the offer to the meetings. And then she comes out and sees the husband laying on the ground praying Sri Nshitana, the son holding his father's feet out and said Sri Krishna Caitanya that she paints her oblations. Sri Krishna Caitanya. This was like the family rite of Chaitanya Da's Shrini mastercard. There was so much absorbent talking in circulation, so much love. So this reduced the glances to always. This error, if everybody does, is not the goal of life anymore. We're here as how to get by with the sense gratification that we can avoid, that we need to have for our mental equilibrium. And how do we engage Krishna consciousness and how to give back to Ka in life. It's a different priority there. Thank you for watching our videos. Be sure to subscribe to our channel.
