A YouTube video of a talk by Jaya Pataka Swami about Dāmodara-līlā and related devotional initiatives. The speaker announces the launch of a lamp-offering (Dhamna/Dhamma) project and Dharma month observances (lamp offerings to various deities) at temples including Rashri Haritam/Juhu and Radha Rashti High Temple, mentions recent inaugurations (Dalunar Puja in Chalpati; a Dhamma program in Kuala Lumpur with ~170,000 attendance reported), and answers an audience question about relating modern life to the pastimes of Krishna and Sri Chaitanya. The talk emphasizes using the month to offer lamps, receive blessings, and awaken loving relationships with Krishna.

So today is the eve of the Dhamna project. Tomorrow here in Rashri Haritam do they're going to start the offering of lamps tomorrow to Nitaragore, to Radha Rashi, Hari, Dita, Adishaka and to Sitaram, Lakshman, Hanuman and all the other Dharmas. So this is a very momentous occasion. Actually last night we inaugurated the Dalunar Puja in Chalpati Dharma. And about two weeks ago or so we inaugurated the Dhamma program at Kuala Lumpur. There they had Krishna dramas and they had a very dramatic, I can say, entry into the drama program. So they did over 170,000 in Malaysia. So this year, this day was the national launch. Because all over the country now they're going to try. So in Chaupati they told me they're also trying. They have a special picture of Lord Dhammada that they're giving out clearly. So like this, I then asked what they're doing here in Juhu, but they selected all over India. Of course, here a lot of people attend the candles and open lamps. That should also count. As far as outreach, I don't know what you're doing here, but you all the listeners will start, will try to reach out, give blessings to the people. This Dharma month is a special month that Ka is very pleased anyone offers the Puja to him. So Starting tomorrow from one month, from 20 nod to 21, we are experiencing the ecstasy of the offering lamp to Damunar. So Lord Dharmadhar, he is so merciful that he agreed to be tied up by his mother. Dhammadan means Udar is the stone. So he was tied by the stone. So like that, we want that our love for Ka, when we awakened, it's already dormant in our heart. And if we awaken it, then we can also tie Krishna in our heart. So this is a very great opportunity that we can get the mercy of Ka on this month. So especially to give people a chance to take Ka and to worship him to Ahuva Sam Seva. Normally people don't do. They don't know how much they are missing. But in this month we have every chance to tell the people, take blessings. Everybody likes blessings. So take blessings off the lamp. The Lord Ka in his merciful Dharma dashboard. So we're very excited tomorrow night here in the Radha Rashti High Temple. They're launching the Dharma program. And all the way near, I think sin there. Billy Larson. So this is very much waiting for a chance we can sing. You can sing that special song that is very pleasing to do. So you wrote. Thank you very much. And the sailor son. Hello. So he has a question. Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my humble obeisances. Because of the existing modern lifestyle, I am not able to relate to the pastime of Krishna Sri Chaitan Mahapur. How do I develop understanding of these transmitted data? So of course this was 5,000 years ago. And it showed how Krishna was the perfect son, perfect master, perfect friend, perfect lover. So in every respect he was perfect.
Now.
It doesn't matter. I don't think that people have trouble watching movies from various tribes. So like that he's in a setting of 5,000 years ago and Ram was millions of years ago. I love Chaitanya 500 years ago. So I don't know exactly what's the difficulty to understand. It's not so important that we understand in the context of the computers and the cars. But we should understand the relationships between Ka and his friends, Krishna, Lord Caitanya and the relationships. Those relationships are something that doesn't change. So we can see how the exchange of loving relationships. And this way we can apply that whatever sitting is that everybody is looking for a friend in this world. A man is looking at a man or a man is looking at a woman. A woman is looking at a woman, a woman looking at a man. But everybody wants a friend. So Prabhupada was presenting to us that Krishna is a perfect friend. So what's the difficulties understanding? Okay, so we're supposed to go walking a little bit and then take some rest.
