In this life of time one day that Rama and solid as silent in his mind try inquire. So.

One day in due course of time that Brahmana in solitude decided in his mind to inquire from Lord Chichatanya Mahaprabhu Chaitanya Bhagavad Antikana chapter 6, text number 14 the Brahmanas said to Lord.

Chaitanya, O Lord, O Lord.

I want to submit to you an appeal. I will place it in your presence if you permit me. Chapter six, text number 15 if you consider me as your servant, then tell.

Me the reason Then tell me the.

Reason.

To clear my doubt by divine mouth.

By your divine mouth. Chapter 6.

After going.

After going to Navadvik.

He is doing whatever he is doing. I don't understand anything.

I cannot understand anything. Chapter six, text number 17.

He will not understand what he was doing, why he was behaving, what he did.

So this Brahmana he didn't understand why Lord Nitranda was behaving or acting in this way.

So what? He had faith in Lord Chaitanya but.

He had faith in Lord Chaitanya.

So to explain what is the actual position of Lord Nidhirananda so he placed.

Before him to understand the actual position of Lord Nitananda. Commentary. Sorry, this is the next verse. Chaitanya Bhagavad ante Khanda Chapter 6, text number 17 everyone says that he is in the Sannyas Ashram but we always choose.

He is always chewing real nuts and.

Merciful camel but he is always chewing beetle nuts mixed with camphor. Since Sri Ntanda Prabhu taught the people of this world to accept scented oils, sandalwood paste, fine dress and ornaments as the remnants of Krishna, foolish people branded him as fond of enjoyment. As a result, many people had no faith in him. Then again, the intelligent persons who considered that giving up objects related to Hari was Falgu Vairagya or false renunciation took pleasure in Nitanda Prabhu's preaching. According to the injunctions of the scriptures, a Sannyasi is prohibited from accepting objects of enjoyment like scented oil, sandalwood paste and peel nuts. But the precocious proud Prakrita Sahajyas freely enjoy an abundance of betel nuts on the pretext of honoring Prashad. Since the imitation of Paramahamsa behavior by such unqualified people is always condemnable, Ordinary foolish people fell into illusion by considering even Sri Nitnanda, the original shelter of Parma Hamsa principles, as a Vivekta dry renunciate or a Dhiya Sanyasi neophyte Sanyasi.

So.

Some people didn't understand the activities of Lord Nidananda.

So some people didn't understand the activities of Lord Nitananda.

Lord Sardau.

When they saw his activities they doubted him.

So this question is going to ask Lord Chaitanya.

This question is being asked to Lord Chaitanya. Bhagavad antikhanda chapter 6 text number 18.

Items made of metal are not to be touched.

And not to be touched by a Sannyasi.

Gold, silver, pearls.

But on his body there is gold, silver and pearls. Commentary the Parvita Sahajyas say that at the present time Sri Ramakrishna Das has protected the honor of the Sannyas Ashram by refusing to accept items made of metal. Our devotee Sannyasi should not use gold or silver like Srinivtananda. There is no doubt that the principles of the independent Vedic Sanyasi become polluted by using these items. But if one eternally considers himself a Paramahamsa and externally does not use items made of metal, the desire for fame will capture his heart and as a result of cheating people such behavior will be accepted as low class. If one refrains from using items made of metal during processions and festivals because people would criticize and if one displays poverty in the performance of the Lord's service, then a misguided materialistic philanthropist will not be able to understand the purport of the verse beginning with if in the present day one gives up saffron loincloth and becomes misguided by wearing fine silk clothes, decorating his body with sandalwood paste and flower garlands, then as a result of imitating the behavior of Paramahansas he would bring about his own ruination. And if some portion of the ideal characteristics of Sri Puntarika, Vidyanidhi, Sri Ramananda Rai and Srimadi is seen in a devotee situated in Parma Hamsa principles and devoid by nature of the desire for fame, then every intelligent person will understand. Unfortunate people accumulate offenses by seeing materialism in Vaiavas.

This is a strange.

So this is a strange situation. In the present day Srila Prabhupada in Calcutta went to the Punjab national bank because he had an account there. But the doorkeeper, he blocked his entrance. He said, no beggars allowed. I'm not a beggar. I'm going to call the bank manager.

I have a soldier.

I have an account here.

He was sign us don't want to go anywhere without his disciples.

So he want to tell us that he doesn't want to go anywhere without his disciples.

If you don't dress nice, if you.

Don'T dress nice then people don't accept.

Oh, sorry, how you up? How do you dress?

People say, oh, how are they? How are they dressed?

And so not that way. Previously he go in the. In the. And he gets free passage.

It's not like the old days. When you go in the Indian trains you get free passage and free prasadam. But now if you go as a beggar, they will throw you out.

You have to dress nice. You have to judge by your parents.

You have to dress nice. But people judge by your appearances.

And so that was. It's not the same. But it was very renounced and people would accept.

So it is not the same that you can be very renounced and people will accept it.

So when Grand Lord Nudinanda is just quite nicely working nicely.

So like this Lord Nitytanda dressed very nicely. He's not a Sannyasi.

He had never taken Sannyas vows.

He had never taken Sannyas vows.

He was ordered by Lord Chaitanya that he should marry.

And he was ordered by Lord Chaitanya that he should get married.

And therefore he married.

And therefore he married Jahnava and Vasuda. So.

He go around his hindsights and follow me.

So as Balaram, his consort Revati and Varuni, other reincarnations Chaitanya bhagavad antekhanda. Chapter 6 text number 19.

Why blue saffron lying long by giving up.

He.

Gives up wearing a saffron loincloth.

He gives up wearing a saffron loincloth.

And he wears fine silk cloth.

And he wears a fine silk cloth.

His hollow generation.

And he always decorates himself with sandalwood paste and flower gardens. Chapter six, text number 20 why did London gave up carrying the danda?

Why? To take up an iron staff.

Why did you take up an iron staff?

He always stays in the halls of sutra.

He always stays in the homes of Shudras. Commentary While explaining the activities of Sri Nitnanda Sri go to Sangha the enthusiastic Brahmana with superficial vision said that A sanyasi is supposed to carry a danda. But instead of doing that, Shri Nitanda Prabhu has taken up an iron staff and spends time with unseeable and untouchable Shudras rather than giving up their association. Since Sri Nitananda exhibited such behavior which was opposed to scriptural injunctions, the Brahma had no faith in him and was therefore doubtful.

Sandhya is clearing out his doubts by asking.

So he was clearing up all his doubts by asking Lord Chaitanya, this.

Is a system I want to ask.

So this is a system one asks Sadhu or Guru regarding any questions it has. Chadanya bhagavad antikanda chapter 6 text number 21 I do not find his behavior in accordance with the Scriptures Psalm.

For this reason my mind has full of doubts.

So due to this reason my mind has become full of doubts. Commentary in the Brahma Vivanta Purana Shri Krishna Janmakhanda chapter 83 it is stated, tambulam vidhva srinam yatinam ramacharinam sanyasi nam chako mamsa surat tulyam amshuta. For a widow Abdul Mashari, a renunciate or a nyasi to eat beetle nuts is as good as eating beef and drinking wine. This is heard in the Vedas. In the Paramahansa Upanishad it is stated, aniketa sitil eva sa bhikshur hada adhikanam naiva pari grahe. A sannyasi should not have a fixed residence and should never accept opulent items like gold. In the Kurma Purana it is stated, gamanta diksha moolewa vasam deva lea API vadavu kashaya vasana basmach channa taruna. A Sannyasi should live outside the village under a tree or in a temple. He should wear clean saffron cloth and cover his body with ashes. In the Srimad Bhavatam 7132 it is stated bhibryade asavu vasa kopina chalanam param. A person in a ram's order of life may try to avoid even a dress to cover himself. If he wears anything at all, it should be only a loincloth. In the Commentary on the Paramahamsa Upanishad it is said, a wise Sanyasi should give up gold utensils for the pleasure of Ka because if he decorates himself with gold, he becomes the killer of a Brahmana. If he touches gold with the spirit of enjoyment, he becomes a dog eater. And if he accepts gold, a sannyasi becomes a killer of the self. In the Anuma Upanishad it is stated a Sannyasi should accept only a sannyas gender, lion cloth, an outer cloth and give up everything else. In the Dharma Vivarata Purana Pragati Khandha chapter 33 it is stated a Sannyasi is one who keeps only a danda, a water pot and a saffron cloth and who always travels and does not stay at one place. He should maintain his livelihood by giving up greed and accepting meals at the houses of pious Brahmanas.

So Lord Jananda, he was trying to deliver only fallen souls.

So Lord Nitananda, he was trying to deliver all the fallen souls.

And despite Ramada Raja was trying to be Sudra. But he was a great devotee.

Just like Ramandaroi was technically a Shudra. But he was a great devotee.

So not seeing the cast, his sealed person based on the devotional service.

So not seeing the cast but seeing the person on the basis of their devotional service.

We see that five things for Heaven and the age of Khalid.

So we see that there are five things prohibited in the age of Khalil.

One of those things is accepting the Sannyas Ashram.

And one of those things is accepting the Sannyas Ashram.

So our sister Ravan had told that if someone takes sannyas they should live in the temple.

So the system Srila Prabhupada told us was that if somebody takes sannyas they should live in the temple.

And you can see that people walk around in a whiteboard.

You don't see that people walking around in loin clothes probably be arrested.

Yes.

Present society.

So the present society is quite different.

But the thing is one should do other than preserve Krishna.

So the thing is that one should do everything to serve Krishna. And that is the standard. Chapter six, text number 22. Everyone says that Nanditananda is a great personality.

But then why only behave according to his Ashram?

But then why doesn't he behave according to his ashram? Chitya bhagavad antekhanta chapter 6, text number 23 if you consider me as your servant, O Prabhu.

What I know, this I know is in my conscious and my mind.

When I have this kind of knowledge, my consciousness in my mind.

What is the ideal mastery?

Coral.

Please tell me.

What is the Mishrika?

Who?

Please tell me with your divine mouth. Chapter 6, text number 24.

Shukriti Brahmana Prushna Koila Shubhu Khani Amaya.

Have made this inquiry at an auspicious Lord.

The pious Brahmana had made this inquiry at an auspicious moment.

Allah only discussion Allah and sign the.

Truth to this Brahman without any deception. The Lord explained the truth to this pious Brahmana. There's only one page left. Okay. Commentary. That was the end of it. The doubt. The doubt that Brahmadrilla on seeing Srinivhu's deviation from proper behavior was actually an indication of his good fortune. Thus ends the chapter entitled Fortunate Brahmana asks Lord Chaitanya to clear his doubt about Nida Prabhu under the section the Glories of Sri Nidana Prabhu.

The Brahman was having understanding of the power behavior of different Ashrams.

So the Brahmana was having an understanding of of the proper behavior of different Ashrams. So he wanted his doubt to be cleared by Lord Chaitanya in the chapter.

12.

That's end of chapter. And what Lord Chaitanya will tell the.

Brahmana will be told the next chapter.
