2005 || Bhagavad Gītā 7.1 || Chicago, USA #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

The Supreme Personality of God said, now hear O Son of Krita, how by practicing Yoga in full consciousness of me with mind attached to me, you can know me in full free from doubt. In this sanction of the Bhagavad Gita, the nature of Ka Consciousness is fully described. Ka is full of all opulences and how he manifests those opulences of the scribe therein. Also four kinds of fortunate people and four kinds of unfortunate people who never take to Krishna described in this chapter. In the first six chapters of Bhagavad Gita, the living entity has been described as non material spirit soul capable of elevating himself to self realization by different types of Yoga. At the end of the sixth chapter it has been clearly stated that the steady concentration of the mind upon Ka or in other words Ka Consciousness is the highest form of all Yoga. By casting one's mind upon Ka one is able to know the absolute Truth completely but not otherwise impersonal. Brahma Jyoti or Guru Realization is not perfect knowledge of the Absolute truth because it is partial, full and scientific knowledge is Ka and everyone who revealed everything is revealed to the person in Ka Consciousness. In complete Krishna Consciousness one knows that Ka is ultimate knowledge beyond any doubts. Different types of Yoga are the stepping stones on the path of Ka Consciousness. One who takes directly to Ka Consciousness or the vanity knowledge about Brahmachi and Paramagma in full. By the practice of Ka Consciousness Yoga one can know everything in food, namely the Absolute Truth, the living entities, the material nature and their manifestations with paraphernalia. One should therefore begin Yoga practice as directed in the last verse of the sixth chapter. Consecration of the wine upon Ka the Supreme is made possible by prescribing devotional service in nine different forms, of which Shalom is the first and most important. What is Shalom? Hearing the Lord therefore says to our do not touch you or hear from Me. And therefore by hearing from him one receives the greatest opportunity to become a perfectly Christian conscious person. Sa it Sam. Therefore when hearing from him one may see the greatest opportunity to become perfectly a perfectly Krishna conscious person. One has to therefore learn from Ka directly from a pure devotee of Ka and not from a non devotee of star. Compared with academic education in the Srimad Bhagavatam is most sensible. The Supreme Personality of Gandhi. Absolute Truth is described in the second chapter of the first Canva as follows. To hear about Krishna containing literatures or to hear from him directly through the Bhagavad Gita is itself righteous activity. And for one who hears about Ka, Lord Krishna, who is dwelling in everyone's heart, acts as a best wishing friend and purifies the devotees. The devotee who constantly engages in hearing of him. In this way devotee naturally develops his varmint transcendental knowledge. As he hears more about Krishna from the Bhagavatam and from the devotees, he becomes fixed in the devotional service of the Lord. By development of devotional service one becomes freed from the most of passionate ignorance and thus material lusts and avarice are diminished when these impurities are wiped away. The candidate who makes studying his position of pure goodness becomes enlightened by devotional service and understands the science of God perfected. Thus, Bhakti Yoga severs the hard knot of material affection and enables one to become to come at once to the stage of Asam Saya Samangyom. In other words, understanding of the supreme absolute truth personality about him. Srima Bhagavudam first handle second chapter, verses 17 through 21. Therefore, only by hearing from Ka or from his devoting in Ka consciousness can one understand the science of Ka. Happy to be back here again. Chicago welcome question to the mother of the team that founded the Chicago Circle in 1970. This year is the 35th anniversary. So my previous life was in Milwaukee. Chicago was used to come down here to see the Museum of Science and History. This grass is that we have. Those are gold in the bath requested us in the seventh chapter, first verse. So we read that and he picks up on two words here. One is Tachino. Try to hear from me, mom, touch him. So hear from me. And raises the point that we have to hear from Krishna. Hear from Krishna or Krishna's miracle who will represent Krishna. We hear from Krishna of his absolute authority get the truth without any adulteration as it is in the Padam Quran it mentions that this spiritual knowledge is handed down through four different discipline successions. Brahma, Sri, Gujarat and who are you? God received a message one of these four sibling successions. Then the mantras that you receive. This was not for the successions that have received their knowledge from Krishna and are authorized to hand along. Especially these are the four lines that you can get in ancient. Especially since every that our new register we take every year after a group of about 150, 200 last year before last year 250 we go to different parts of India. This year we went to after the energies to the beginning of the energy institutions hundreds of the world. I don't know if any of them any of them actually connected to any of these four successions. Many of them are more than harbor. They are the latest gut go to us customary. The thing is that if one doesn't get the knowledge from one fan source, ultimately they miss the real point of what is Bhagavad. Bhakti Yoga. And Krishna is describing here as the best means to get back to me thinking how so many foreign tourists go to these places in search of spiritual knowledge. They're going into the big marketplace. So many people set up shop which is the waterfall shop which is in Tiger Temple. They all look very the same ways. There are probably many already well meaning and getting certain spiritual knowledge. The Vedas also tell us that we should be very careful to hear from our Maishnava is someone who believes in the supreme personality of Bhagavai. This is like even if it's a lecture about Krishna then it's like drinking bell which is touched by a voice in his name. This is now this is a problem. Everybody is talking or hurrying. Everyone is talking. The problem is like some people they talk about like I want to one person who is very nice. My appreciate is people who are situated in some nice walks of ancient costume. And he said that his guru he was the secretary of all the sadhus in India. He was very renowned scholar. So he gave me a note about his guru and teachings of his guru. And his guru was saying that you must perform Bhaktiyoga. So some people think that you should only worship miracle. But he said no, you must worship Sahar the form that born without form. Just like Bahla and Du I mentioned. They all got purified by worshipping God with the form. So you should worship the Lord with a form. Especially performing Mahdi Yoga Enchanting. Anything wrong with that? Wow, this is for a while this is really wonderful nice things. But then I was let God by the night. Then I went beloved. Because once you get purified by practicing Bhakti Yoga then it will go on the higher personal realization. But the final cherry of the resume was not digestible. So this is not problem. But to speak of others who are having really favorable to fighting the world. It seems the more is that we go back to Noah to be. We see that in personal organization is a step to Bhakti Yoga. And some people they do the pas Yoga. It was very interesting. In the Rishi page we saw he was written Hindi. Some of the answers said if you do Tabasir, you get some spiritual mystical strength. But that strength isn't enough. To take you back to nagging. If you want to get back to magnanimity, you have to develop your boast of life condition. So it's very difficult especially for a beginner to. You want to get truth that you can rely on. You want to hear from a teacher that you know whatever is being told is going to be accurate. If you have the NYZ statement point. I remember once I saw this beautiful drama of Giro like Nir. She was a princess in Rajasthan from maybe 600 years ago who decided who realized she had this very strong devotion for Krishna. She sang beautiful songs and she accepted Krishna as her husband. So not unusual situation, but she's a real person. I think she's the Prabhupada says she's a great devotee. Maybe there's a few points. Some of our experience is said that her path is not executive without bifold we rather than servant of Bhagavana and Krishna. But anyway, she was her Vedic mother. Her purpose was to serve Krishna always. That was her purpose. Besides this Jarva but she went through many, many things. She also had poison. Once she ate the poison, she had so much rain from Krishna that it didn't affect her. Different things like spreading Manchuras. There was always a nightstrum at a burning angle. But it was like one of these many of the groups of dolted. Rama was disciple of this person who wrote the book. He saw Buddha like a strong like shining pin and said now at the end, you know by is merging with Krishna Krishna we don't believe that the period of odis want to merge with Krishna. That's for the demons and for the universities they like to merge with Krishna in his joti, in his spiritual conscience. But the devotees they want to serve is eternally on. Hanuman was offered a blessing by Ram. Ram offered him this the only mystic power. So offer a little liberation. And then he had said I don't want to go with any liberation Roman master, I am your servant. I want to always have that relationship. I want to serve you eternally. There is an order by the watches. So then ask what blessing you want. He said, okay, if I have ever blessed him, then I love you so much. Just like a son to his father at like one time. So I want to hug you. I guess son has this problem. Maybe some of you have seen a picture where Hammerman was hugging around. That's from that pastime he refused too much. Devonians know that they rather get a spiritual form and deserve this spiritual eternally. That's the difference. But somehow it's impressive. Even if they're somewhat capable of. Everybody knows that you can't avoid it. Throughout Bhagavad, Gita, Shimma and Bhagavatam. It says it is the most effective yoga. Yoga means to connect. You want to connect with Krishna. This is the best way to perform Ocean Beginning. Unfortunately, they put different skins on. But Krishna never said this. The parents stand. You should learn. This is even serving me generally. So how like to know the words. There's also a mention here for God recorded these verses directly to the Bhagavad. Even itself courageous activity. For one hears about Krishna. Lord Krishna is dwelling in everyone's heart and to the best wishing of men. And purify us with devotees who constantly engage in hearing in this way. You need to hear about Krishna hear or from Krishna directly. When you do that, then Krishna builds up this mercy. So that one who does transcendental knowledge. We know about Krishna forgotten that awakens. The more we hear about Krishna from Bhagavatam, from the devotees. Then the person becomes fixed in devotional service. By devotional service that might be a devotional service, you learn about it. You're increasing your your level of spirituality. You become free from the lower bones of dash and ignorance. Progressively material less than average are diminished. Diminished and then fully kannal. But it's diminished more of a controllable level. You can start to dovetail. You can start to control these tendencies. Then when these impurities wiped away, the candidate began steady disposition of pure goodness. So when we get into pure goodness, all the disturbances, the loss of anger and greed. And all the Lord wants to dash ignorance are diminished. Then we become enlightened by devotional service. We then really understand Ka consciousness perfectly. The science of God. In this way, Bhakti Bhopava severs the hard mind of material affection. Enables one to come at once to the stage of Asam Sayam Samadgram Assam Sahm means without doubt. We understand the supreme absolute, true personality of God. Isha is named for the Supreme Father, Supreme Lord. He has a transcendental form of such Ananda, whichever is for marriage. He is original. And he had scorch. And sometimes he was asked where does God come from? So the secret is that he is the original. He has no origin. Something has to be the original. Otherwise. So he is the original. He has originally I am the foundation for the universal. Doesn't sign anywhere in the Venus that Ka is coming from the Jyoti. Jyoti is coming from Ka. This is speculation. Describing the Jyoti as absolute truth. The absolute truth as the Brahman Georges Emanator. The seventh chapter Bhagavad Gita is loyal flight of the Padma Quran. How they already heard the voice of the seventh chapter. Bhagavad Prabhupada told me in the Baba that Bhagavrama is important literature for the day and after the devotees. So I said one of it should be translating the future for Islamic devotees. Hearing them there mentions that Lord Shiva. He was discussing another Parvati about the glories of the seventh chapter Bhagavad Gita one of the years. Well, there's an example. Once there was a very rich man. He had four sons. He was rich, but he was also a miser. He would bury his money in some hole in the ground in a forest somewhere. So nobody knew where his money was. People who borrow from above drink less money. So what was my. What was he interested? He was interested in making money. Money, money, money. Only him was the honey one Mani was traveling with his sons. One son, just a minute. He suddenly grabs a heart attack and something before he could tell the morning and burned all the money. He died. The Amadutas came and took him away. He set up body and his soul away from the dead boat's body and brings them down to Yamuluoka. There in Yamuluoka, they said you are so much attached to your money. You're not doing anything spiritual so that you can protect your money. You will take birth as a snake and live in a hole by your money. You said it didn't know tries to take the money. He liked him. It was his karma. Attached his money with heavy money. He didn't use it for good purposes. Didn't donate to the Hare Krishna temple food for life. Something was accumulating. So as a result, since he was so attached to his money, he was a snake carrying cobra. So then. So then he was living in the hole. His sons were trying to figure out what a money was. When they didn't really know. They confirmed all the rituals, the straw and everything. But as he was also. He was sometimes people usrab and don't do it the right way. It's a ceremony that this is the 500th anniversary of Chattanya performing for his father Jevenal Mishra in Ghana. So we went to Baya with a member of Sati. He's a household 500 Universities of Vajitanya getting initiated. How many of you here are initiated? We also following in the footsteps of Bhachani Mahapur he took initiation showing all of us needed to take initiation. Modified spiritual master. After he got initiated, then he went back to Kagabu Garada. This year he was going dancing and chanting in a temple of Gaya. There was a Vishnu footprint there. How many have you been with Gaya? Beautiful temple there in the footprint of our Vishnu. We went this time there's that temple there. Everybody can do worship all this hope. And not only the Brahmanas, but the guiding of the Brahmanas and they will be helped our worship. So we offer two cities and then the Vishnu Sahastranam action of worship for the Vishnu Bharat everybody. They gave us impression from the footprint of each of the Lauries they will take with them. They also gave me a framed sober impression of the Lord's footprint of our Vishnu. They had recorded that in 1971. I remember his name. So some people do these Shraddha. Maybe they don't do it in the right way or something so it doesn't have the same effect. So this Shraddha, whatever these boys did, that didn't work for their father. He was either too sinful or they didn't do it in the proper way. Sometimes people think that we offer to the forefathers whatever he likes. He likes to eat, you know, cherries and graces. We can't even mention temple non religious. And the one on the offer then. That's not the point. It's not like offering just some gift. You want to offer food, offer tradition, prasad and offer that delivering that soul doesn't have any intact. So most of your pets coming. The father is living there as a snake in the home. He comes to the theme of the four boys. He tells I am your father. I've taken birth as a snake. And guiding, guarding the hole, the place where the treasure is kept. I know you did ceremonies, but it wasn't strong enough to help me because I was too sinful. You really want to help me? I need help. I really need help, dad. To get out of this hellish condition I'm doing. A snake became a snake. You don't expect one of the richest men in society. Highly, you know, distinguished personality from the ten Gordons at snake. All the wealth in the world, all the distinguished name and fame thus empowered in heaven than any spiritual identity. If you're just a materialistic person that doesn't lead you to a higher birth. Because of his sinful nature, he was led into this holy ground as a poisonous snake. The different brothers, they got together. My father became a sting I have the same thing. And then they found out that all have the same thing. All have the same being. Then they realized it must be true. It must be true. And you know, the first brother feels wow. They watched the room and she was the second brother was the third one. He really thought, let's do something for father. Let's get together and do something. And whatever it takes to help him. After all, he's our dad and did everything right. The fourth son, he was like what we call Bhuni Chala. He wanted to get all the money for himself. And he had an idea where the father might have buried him. So I thought, I need one day install his other brothers. I can still the money and get out of it. They said no. Okay, that's a good idea. But I heard, brother, that they're my third big brother. Big brother, second big mother, third big brother, nature. So. But he said it's a good idea. Let's all think about it for one day and come back here tomorrow at this time. Then we'll give our ideas what we can do to help our father. Actually his intention of stalling for one day. Go get the money and escape. It'll go by the sheriff of the four bodies. That night he woke up, his wife says, come on, give him a special mission. I think you know where the treasure is. They took shovels and boats and they went out and hid in the forest. And there they're digging. Where he thought the sooner they dug, I will stink. All you things are doing. I'm going to bite you and kill you. Dad, dad. No. He just came here to help you. No, you simply. You're like me who wants to just go back to the material well and misuse it. You don't want to use it properly. So I'm going to kill you now. No, no, daddy. In this case we do not take away worries. If I can help you, how do you know how to help you? We can't find you just looking for you. Anyway, I know your people. But I'll give you that chance. If you want to help me, this is what you do. And don't try to come back here again without helping me. On the next strat ceremony, the next anniversary of my death that you perform a strat. We were performing strat. Father, guess what? This is a special son. Your strat wasn't good enough. This is a special one. You have to bring a beautiful Islam. I believe pure devotee of Krishna. Read the seventh chapter of the Bhagavad Gita and offer the result of the seventh chapter Bhagavad Gita for my benefit of my soul and I'll be free. Because 7 chanted Bhagavad Gita is so powerful it can free the soul from birth and death. So then he went back and somehow gave some stories. He just went into a fort that's happened some. He had some story to tell. This is what happened. The father wants seventh chapter Bhagavad Gita to be read. And the Srati came to the srat ceremony, found the nice devotion of Krishna and then read the seventh chapter Bhagavad Gita offering the results for the departed. The soul of the Father. And the Father was liberated from his snakebird. And he came there in some kind of a form, subtle or spiritual something. And he came and he called him dividing the treasure given to the four brothers. We told him, don't make the mistake I did. Don't misuse it. Use this money for spiritual purposes. Apart from your maintenance, use it to serve Krishna. Use it to spread the message of Krishna. In this way you can also go back to Krishna. Always read seventh chapter by what he did. And he was taken back to God in front of the voice by the Vishnu Dutas. So they have Bible faith in the seventh chapter Bhagavad Gita. That's why I heard chapter Bhagavad Gita. I was surprised. It's a powerful chapter about either how you're selected, how many have survived along the earth has exploded with regards to rickshaws since in Chicago.
