2005 || Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 1.17.4-5 || Chicago, USA #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

A 2005 Chicago lecture by Jaya Pataka Swami (Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 1.17.4-5 commentary) exploring the role of righteous kingship as protector of the helpless, the moral failure of secular administrators, and the need for cultural rejuvenation through spiritual initiation. The speaker connects these theological themes to practical activism: vegetarianism, anti-slaughterhouse efforts, and ethical consumer choices (e.g., leather). He addresses audience questions about protest and political action, advising emphasis on preaching and outreach over direct political confrontation, and highlights auspicious timing for donations (Vaishaka/Satya-yuga anniversary).
Translation with arrows and gold and seated on a golden cross chariot spoke to him with a deep voice resounding like thunder. O who are you? You appear to be Israel and in their hill will define protection those who are helpless. By your cares you pose yourself to be a godly man and king. But by your deeds you are opposing the principles of the Christmas. An administrative head or king, like an orange parishioner, with full majestic authority, well endowed with weapons and chastise and experience can challenge the agents of the age of covenant. Then only will it be possible to counteract the creating the age. And in the absence of such strong executive events, there is always disruption of tranquility. The elected shoemaker shaking their head as representative of the degrading public People with a strong king like Maharaj Mashi, the dress or style of red order does not count. Is one's actions which recover. Because for these higher caste classes of men there is one work by parental conjugation and there is another work of cultural rejuvenation by spiritual initiation from the bona fide acharya or spiritual mastery. Saksakir is also twice more like a ravine and his duty is to give protection to the helpless. The chakriya king is considered to be the representative of God to give protection to the helpless and chastise the mystery. Whenever there are anomalies in this routine work by the administrators, there is an incarnation of the Lord to re establish the principles of a godly kingdom. In the age of telling, the poor helpless animals, especially the cows, which are meant to receive all sorts of protection from the administrative heads are killed without restriction. Thus he demonstrated heads under loose noses. Such things happen by representatives of God remain holy. Such powerful administrators are rulers of the poor citizens by dress or office perfection. They are worthless organized men without the cultural assets other than twice born, no one can expect justice or quality and treatment from one's poor scripture and culture as sin. Therefore, in the ancient Nalayan forest and that due to the administration of the state, the bottom of society is not twice formed by spiritual culture. Therefore the people's government by other people who are not twice formed must be government mentality and charitable social. 17th chapter, fourth and fifth verse. If you really have highly cultured principles king who were ruled by rule of law by going to the daily vas and mountain there definitely there's less call for people to misuse all the government formalities and red tape. As it's happening now we want to live. We were discussing this yesterday how these court cases even in America sometimes things have hung up on the Torah long time having a case. And he had been going on for a couple years about two or three years over the day the Lord temple and hesitating to come up to trauma. The judge keeps putting it off anyway. But it's not perfect justice. That's the point. But here you're seeing like immediate justice. The king is an ultimate supreme court. He sees somebody digging a cow, he's giving him shofas. Why it is? What's your explanation? Speak down. Where you can't do that. That's good. If people aren't reliable, they're on reliable team. So monarchy lawyers overthrown and replace the most deliberate. This. The point is that we should see that if you actually have a problem, you can really work if you don't have a movie. But as a result it's not that everybody is happy. Especially living in America. It seems like it works. So we go into the corporate operation democracy so much. I mean just that during the elections recently in bid something like how many people were killed? 25 people killed. In reflection I just say 25. It's like in order to get the boats and some other party trying to capture the boot and then take their balances. They call them moustach fill in 200 or a thousand balance with recognized things. Shove them to the box. This is election in Bharmala Daesh. When you have elections there's always a tremendous disruption. Something in the piercing like Neil back up to the Krishna conscious people. And they were Krishna conscious leaders. Then they would enforce a better system of governments. So it's really a city here in Chicago talking about animal slaughter. Chicago is one of the biggest slaughtering places in the world. It once was the president when they have a vegetarian meal every day. I heard that Prince Charles had a vegetarian feast about caring for the dogs suffering. And then what about the house? They set up a special exhibition which is a baby cat in cow. And so the kids come up and pass the cat and see, you know, cats are people. Nice people. What should we do? It's so sad. You always see some picture of some barbecue fast food place way in the town. Or the chanting. They were little knights of war people that would have a total of their next reputation. It was Heather. They were chivalrous people. They were trading much lights, some chatriers. Thousands of people. They do astray, they do mantras. Very special personalities. Certain people like karma were on the wrong side. But they had a shlome. They had to. They were very charitable. So actually someone being read from time for his humble weapon. Which was known for the three Persian. Because they begged him and said on human charity. Then he agreed. So he gave it. And there was his diary. And he had to be charity. There was when Jairus Sandhya would go down Bina. They approached the last year and cheetah for Bhima Nigerian Krishna came to sky and begged from jarasandha1 boom. And then they took off their round of bells and they showed the exchange presentation said that you want to fight or and because he had said okay, what you are. They had some code. But they had certain codes that they live by in terms of their soul. So then there is a redeema and judge someone far. And that's where Jarasanda somehow was a mystical person within him. There were two parts and they were put Jairus and the two pirates were put together. So the only way to kill him was to fight and beam. So the witches that he got up holding one foot on the ground. I just highlighted the point of how important they were. They weren't like people melting the hearing a word or something made his teeth or wow. They actually had assumption children. They were like righteous even, right? But they had their role in society. They were doing all kinds of respect because they kept everything in order. They had to follow violence. There's another side people who are enjoying so much. But then as Prakar who he died in Western defense. He was so special. The king claimed the Lord as a sign of his humility to Krishna. Like that he had so much mercy. He went through investigate when the Lord J was being offered his so then recognized. Because you always see even though I looked like this. Except those who are very close to me. So you just came and take that rub. Watch him his feet and massage his leg again go for permission. So he was massaging watching his mother's feet. And this way you got someone's waist. Watch his hands. With the Bible type. He sang a beautiful song about the Gopi's feelings and separation with Krishna. And then purchasing his dad don't know who you are for you've given me such a wonderful service. Such beautiful verses. And he just hugged him. So all I can give you Ask him anything or afford anything. Just take my grace. Give him a hangish. We should be careful about social materialistic behavior of people on a weekly basis. Especially for some Nancy. But at the same time we can those who are really rewarding accession Other thing here was the importance of giving initiation. And it's a verb for spiritual and cultural rejuvenation. So there must assist them. In Brahmans our tears and emotions we will all be transformed and have a spiritual master only this supra. Our goal is following that principle at this time. Born in a family of military tradition. First birth to the parent second birth from the spiritual master. The third birth you get from performing guidance. So it's those who are principally discovered people that hang out two that is facing use it. Good morning. Sometimes we say we see something wrong going on. At least we know that if it's inherently associated with it and we see someone someone doing something wrong but we don't have the authority. What is the normal etiquette? How do we try to help that person? You seeing a single devotee that appears to really. Well, no. I've been told that one shouldn't act like this but sometimes I see that there are belief acts I just want to do now. Or is this something we can't follow? Can you explain it to me that is this something I should have been doing in my personal life because I look out to you as a spiritual example for me or is this how you explain this? This is kind of a dog, is it not My. Especially if I was doing anything without approval. Can I ask you a question? You want to give me a asking question? Is it okay or do you just ask one little question please or is it all right? Do you know how something will make it all that must be something heavy. But technically it's not because I know that we have a strong preaching program for vegetarianism and anti slaughter with cows. My question is actually it's a two fold question. First question is have the votings actually like boycotted at slaughterhouses before? And the other question is are there slaughterhouses in Indian that actually killed our spiritual restaurant. Some of the bodies wanted to do that kind of like more political type of manifestations or something. But then he advised let's not wait any more time changes because it's a democracy, the majority of people are having that kind of value. That the most effective means for us to do by preaching that it wouldn't really have so much effect just as a general rule. I mean that's the impression I got that he wasn't for inspired political activist role at this stage in time. Although it may change later if we actually have a bigger influence. It would be an issue to study and see when is appropriate or what's left. He had admission that we need to do more preachings and cultivated grounds talk to leaders. We use one of those methods as far as India is concerned there's 20 states in India and 18 states councillonger is banned. But there is two as a state option. So 18 of the training is manned by those two states which have generally of Harlem's governments socialistic communist government. And those two states are all household. And there were some religious abolition leaders who were fasting mental tangs of military states is to try and make those two states stop link the state of Kerala. The Hindu population is only 1/3, the Muslim is 1/3 and the Christian is 1/3. Being on the west coast of India and the Arabian Sea it's been exposed to a lot of influence from there were nations attacking and from Christian dashing. So they don't have a majority population. That's another factor in that particular state. Another state of statusage is Vienna because of the rule where families government they also. So somehow that adds faster Sometimes just to do so somehow bring the attention back to the chair. I personally felt as I'm also a very active person like this thing to me and sometimes no wonder what I was doing a lot of active management. I would go for some idea and reach out and say oh, I do this today and keep coming back and that I just carry. I carry and not weigh it down that this is what I have to do, you know and then think about. But the main thing I would end up screaming the temple and cause my dimension and matriyal to the park. But later I realized yes. So as devotees are we to avoid like I have a leather belt. You know sometimes I you know, I'm like wait a minute. Are we like to avoid products like that like leather shoes and belts. Like if I buy a car, should I give suede belt? I mean, you know, cloth interior instead of leather interior. Or we can take it to that level. Well, some things like if you're working in the Himalayan office or some kind of heavy loans and stuff the 90s. Then there may be some exceptions where there's no other choice than to use leather shoes. In India they have some companies that make non buyer leather shoes and they only take skins from the animals that die national. So you have that option. I don't know if anybody's made that option in the West. Maybe it may have been a marketing thing. People are always looking to make money generally. I mean unless there's some kind of. Some people when they work, they have to work. If I had to work, yes, I would buy the synthetic belts rather than leather. No, they have to leave the limitation by the imitation leather things upholstery. I don't know if it's written anywhere but why would you want to participate supporting the slaughterhouse industry directly and indirectly if there's a choice there's an alternative that works. Why not take it Prabhupada he said there's two things there's more like the Mukhya and the Mogn there's the principal major angle considerations and the Subhana details. So a lot of these things fall under the detailing category that like you're living in Chicago it's so 03 months of the year you may have to wear shoes that you don't get crossed by your toes if there's an option to do that it's not that circulated amongst the community otherwise if somebody has a job they have to work long in our ideal society in the future every cow dies when we kill it or we let it die at old age so we wouldn't have even had our children who would make it the animals of dimensions. There could be something that's promoted nonviolent shoes nonviolent milk church I was thinking they should have organic organic non biotic milk. Now they don't kill their cow. You pay extra people pay extra for organic Pay extra for run by Nutella to a you're not going to kill the cow now it will become a missionary people come back and die. Is there a difference in quality or method from a common sexual better dimension is better you can't make I don't know I'm not a leatherist. That's a selling brush Just what the people that make the arbor drugs and natural leather and they say that when they kill the cows they get some hanging problems and they generally just cure the leather inside the cure or process it using salt. Therefore you can't use that for grubs because the salt will absorb the moisture. But when the cows land actually they're just that to make drums. That's the main reason you have drums eat them all. So generally today is the best day to give donations. This is the day that's the anniversary of the beginning of Satya Yuga Whenever Sataning begins on this tiki. So 427,000 years from now one of the days one of the years of this tiki is going to be the Nusa ruin. This is when it begins. And so this is somehow anything you do on this day has a karmic benefit until the end of the universe. When I came back to him including preaching on this day Maya poor They were like every four of the death stars in life where there were Life numbers running until 11 o' clock to hand me a thousand donations. Because they were going to get thousands of liberties of time by doing donations today. This is the day the fundraisers of ISKCON get all their donations. To do donations you get that special advantage. But somehow here in the west looks like you don't even know about it. You can quickly tell people to give your rafa to our donation today and give the Shantij multiple benefit. This is Benchen and the Kambha Quran very special day. So this day also it's a day that people do yog yada swine. I want to say something's really special and inspirational Life. It's one of those bonus days that you try to do as much as you can and you get it Everybody that's extra. I mean the bodies for everything as a matter. But for the good people, the good ones the this is a holy month of like this month. It's called Vaishaka. There's many special days like this. Again it's just like the month of dhammagara here the 110th. Except the month of Dhammagara is purely more for the spiritual side where this month is also spiritual material. It's more like general soul. This month is more favorites amongst the Jenny Hinduism. But both of us are very special. That month war was bishop for B and this is for Bhakti and Lucifer charity. This is a month when you should do our deeds to the leading. You should give in charity. You should take all that and this is super big. So now suddenly I think the wheels are turning.
