A recorded lecture by Jaya Pataka Swami (Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 11.7.11-12) explaining the nature of self-realization and pure devotional service versus accidental/material goodness. The speaker uses scriptural stories (a king turned into a lizard; a landlord and cobbler) to illustrate how even charitable acts can create karmic entanglement unless performed as pure devotion to Krishna (suddha-sattva, sukriti). The talk emphasizes spontaneous devotional activity, practical ethics (prasadam, nonviolence, right intention), and contrasts scriptural transcendental standards with worldly notions of piety.
It's it One who has transcendent material good and everyone who had transcended material good and evil automatically act in accordance with religious injunction and avoid forbidden activity the self realized soul does this spontaneously like an innocent child One who has developed accidental knowledge never acts once it describes two stages of devotional service has rigidly practiced their own Thus do the previous practice One spontaneously avoid sinful life acts in accordance with the standards of ordinary finances this does not mean that a self realized soul is consciously avoiding sickness and pursuing science in rather due to his self realized nature he spontaneously engages in the most exalted spiritual activities such as adolescent child may spontaneously exhibit good qualities such as kindness, kindness, tolerance tolerant spiritual platform is called sudha asatva purifying goodness Distinguish it through the mature mode of goodness which is always to some extent polluted by the lower modes of action and ignorance Us as a man is material goodness appears to be most pious eyes of the world Only imagine the spotless character of a self realized soul and purified spiritual wisdom Therefore instead of he will automatically exhibit all the exalted qualities of the devas Such manifestation of purity is far heat Let me explain Next let me explain all living beings who is peaceful and surely fixed in value seeks me said Krishna within all things Such a person never again falls down into the cycle of birth and death how is everyone? Are you well? Everyone is blissful. We have a nice association with our But Yes. What is something good helping others? No, that's more than good. There's two levels Good, bad good evil and super good Spiritually if you help others materially then get material good karma if you help others Krishna conscious in the name of Krishna can you get Krishna's blessings? To steal from others or hurt others that's the hero, right? To get what? Bad harmony. Ah, now the Bhagavatam There is attainments personalities Krishna Krishna was at the ramtide was in the old auntie Babe was the one giving away who's the one that was the one? That's the name of the king that was lizard For Krishna found this with lizard in a well in a kua on the kupam and Krishna saved him By Krishna's blessing he came back to the human form how is it you got this form? It's a lizard, you know what is a lizard like? Its name was Dang it's usually insects that's how big of lizard so the king Luga he said that he was giving away charity Is giving charity good? Is it good? How many said giving Charity is good. Why you don't say it's good? Anything wrong with charity? When is charity transcendental? When you give to Krishna or giving away. Krishna Prasad, he was a rich king. He wanted to get lots of Punya. There he is giving every Brahmin a hundred cows. Say, here's the Brahmin. You got hundred cows. You get. Everyone is giving hundred. One of the cows from this one were in Kada. Back into the, you know, corral fencing. And he gave again the same cow to you to the next round. So you had 99 near hundred. Somehow this one went back and that was given against him. He said, well, I have to save my cow. I want my cow. The one common thing. Somehow that cow was given. Christ, he offered first. Prophet, I'll give you 100 cows for that one. No, no. Why should I take another cow? It's a prestige issue. It's my cow. I want my cow. I'll give you a thousand cows. 10,000 cows. You give me a million cows. I want only that cow. Then the other Brahmin. He said, why am I lesser than him? Why should I give my cow? You gave it to me. I'm not giving it. Give him the cow. I'll give you 100 cows. I'm not a greedy man. I don't need more cows. Why sir? I don't want hundred. I don't want cow. I want this cow. So both were very dishonest. Why he is managing giving away the cow? So he was cursed. You become a lizard. What kind of donor are you giving away the cow for? There he was a lizard in a well, eating insects with the frogs. Emperor Great Emperor Maharaj Samra became wizard because of little mistake in giving charity. So this Punya, highest activity, good activity, dangerous in many ways. Because it still binds us to the material world. There was once a rich landlord. He gave charity to one cobbler living near his house. The cobbler never paid back the donation, loan, whatever. The rich man died because he gave a charity to the poor man. The poor man was indebted to him. So therefore he took birth as the son of the poor man. So the poor man could pay him back. He owed him something. He got money from him. How to pay back that debt if you have a son? Parents spend money on their children. How many of you are parents? Raise your hand. Who are parents? You spend money on your children. So one kind of child is called that's your child in a previous life. You have a debt with that person. They come as your child just to get back their money. They're always asking for their parents. Give me. Give me. Give me the suputra. A good child always wants to serve the parents. Serve Krishna. Help every time. Be very pious to all the spiritual activities. That's suputra. There's a debtor putra. Give me. Give me. They don't want to give anything to the family. They want to take. These are all sukutras and putris. Right? God giving. That son of the cobbler who previously was a rich man. He never trained his own children to be kind. So when he went as the son of the cobbler to his house, his son was now the landlord. He went and fixed the shoes of his son in the previous life. He asked for some money for fixing. Who are you to ask money to meet? My father gave you so much money. You never paid him back. Your father never paid him back. Then he beat with Yeshu, the cobbler's son who was actually his own father from the 50th birth. Such as the laws of karma. Doing good things brings good karma. But also brings karmic entanglement in the material world. Doing bad things, sinful things. Of course we know that brings direct sinful reactions. Suffering. Even good type are being suffering. Everything in this material world brings suffering. Only one serves Ka. That does not produce material karmas. That gives us spiritual freedom. It's called Sundar Sattva. Transcendental goodness, Pure goodness. And their credit is called Sukriti. You get the credit in Krishna's book for having served him. Krishna never forgets our service. So here it's talking about someone who is very advanced. He's a self realized person. He may not think about what he is doing. The autobiographic ratio of the something. For a very exalted reason that he does everything to please Ka. There was one godbrother of Ramanujanacharya. His name was Vindra Das. Everybody was always complaining about him. So many rumors. They couldn't understand that there's one kind of devotee who does things by rule. So they simply follow the rules. They cannot get at the level. They do everything to please Ka. Naturally. So they follow guidelines called rules. That's recommended that somebody goes even beyond that to where they are naturally always thinking how to please Ka. Then they can do things automatically, even without the wound. But sometimes it's not understood by others. One time going on bearing a cobra by the neck, sticking his finger inside the mouth of the cobra and the cobra went stroking. You must see he's torturing the poor Cobra. You stick your finger in the mouth of a cobra, it bites you, you'll die. It's really dangerous. Ramanuja went and asked why are you sticking your finger in the mouth of the cobra? Is the cobra swallowed or let it? It's stuck in the throat and trying to get it out. Poor thing is choking. Everyone's criticizing that. He seems to be torturing the cobra without saving the cobra, risking his own life, putting his finger in the throat like that, rubbing the daddy expressions. The more people imagine so like a child, innocent small child, small child. They naturally do things. They have a good nature. They do things right. These self realized souls eventually do things thinking how to please ka how to help the living entities. Someone may be like we went during the tsunami relief from the bodies who are distributing for Saddam from they took prasad nearby to project Kumanari. First day they distributed prasad everyone twilk their life. Most of those people are non Hindus. Some others and then nearby leaders and the Aristotle are eating the Hari kissed up the salad. Somehow they didn't like it. So they told them ego. They went and they started with the stupid relief giving the people fish and other things. The next day he said no, no, we don't want children to sell you giving nice mantras. So in the eyes of the people, they are very charitable. Prasadam will save them through so many karmas. What people do in the material world or may be considered very pious, very charitable, but maybe even very sinful. From a scriptural point of view, someone who is really good, how everything is karma, yoga who don't know also what is good and what is evil. Some evil things I think are good. Some good things I think are not good. In the west and east, maybe in India people still have an idea about what is good and what is good. Because the voting is something very special. We all want to become Vaishnava, right? Maybe you want to become a Vaishnava. You want to transcend with Chaitanya, Chaitanya Chera Venda. He said eh Madhav eh Mandal esab mone Brahman. This is good, this is bad. That's all concoction of the mind, the material world. What we think is good, what we think is bad, material, mundane, borrowing or other things has nothing to do with transcendental science. We need to know what will these fishes do? The body does everything to please Rahman's mission. That's why it has a higher standard. They were worshipping Devas, they were performing weddings. They spent a lot of money for their daughter's marriage to compete with other rich people. Other people would spend a lot of money for their daughter marriage. He had no more daughter to marry. So then he performed marriage between Shiva Parvati and murky someone else. He thought I had to do something better than this one. So he married one dog male dog and female dog and so our next one they know I'll do cat viral and virali cat and male cat, female cat. Sometimes they're marrying trees, onion tree and sword tree different things. So Lord Chaitanya's followers were seeing that people are doing all this showing off that we're very religious. Nothing according to shastra. What does Shastra say to men and cats and dogs? As it says they are just showing off to have some festival, spend some money, feed people. We want to be known as very religious. So there was a superficial religion without what's the real purpose of religion? We should satisfy the Lord Our all perfection is there when Hari is satisfied so the self realized soul is completely fixed and peace in Ka with his thoughts, words and deeds so that Lord Ka here is mentioned to Udava Good qualities and of pure devotees. Both the Sadhana bhaktas follow the rules and regulations as well as deed. Third purpose is also to please Krishna when they do so through following the rules to write an Yuga of spontaneous devotees do it naturally. We want to all act in such a way. Krishna is proven Please. That's our goal with your piety I do something by I am protected by my piety. That protection is limited. The body simply depends on Krishna's presence. He does everything to please Krishna. Thank you all for serving Krishna besides Ms. Well Wisher of all living entities Peaceful fixed knowledge, Transcendental meditation. We have this consciousness Sri Krishna everywhere. Eventually we're not going to do things. It's like harming other living entities. Why should we harm the animals? Why should we eat or kill an animal when we know which only animal we don't suffer pain. We don't need to do so. There's enough vegetables, fruits, love products. We don't need to kill any animals because they're suffering. Anyone has a question and all the people I served you put water on the root of the plant and all the plant is. Service should be done in such a way that people are spiritually uplifted. If you serve people what they refuse, what type of service? Handing out cigarettes to everyone, giving them cancer. Krishna said everything you do, everything you give away everything should be done with Madhya Panama should be done as mighty and charity. It depends how materiality is benefited. We do all chanting in the name of Krishna. There's a difference. You should do don't want to do Karma. We don't want to do good karma. We don't want to do bad karma. Devotional service. That's what Krishna recommends in the Bible. Thank you for watching our videos. Be sure to subscribe to our channel. We publish new videos every day. And don't forget to like and share our channel.
