The following is a question and answer session given by His Holiness Jaya Patanka Swami Maharaj on November 10, 2023 in Sri Ramayapur, India.
So Guru Maharaj, there's a question from this devotee. He was asking. He was asking that we read from Chaitanya Charitamrita where Kailaj Goswami mentions that once in a day of Brahma, Lord Krishna appears. And after that Dwapar Yuga, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu appears. So in other Dwapar Yugas and Kali Yugas, especially Kali Yuga, does Lord Chaitanya descend or some other incarnation comes? Because it is mentioned in the scripture that the Lord comes in every Yuga four Yugas. So. So in every Kali Yuga does Lord Chaitanya comes? No.
I went to Kirmana next my Balaji is the Kalyana.
So I went to Tirumala Balaj. They say that the Balaji is Kali Yuga incarnation from the last Kali Yuga for the last Kaliyuga. So Lord Chaitanya only comes after Lord Krishna. Everyone come every time and he doesn't come every time. So you should be very grateful that he just came. Ask them to stop the Kirtan. Hi Krishna. Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my humble. Oh. Please accept my respectful obeisances. Although I know that Mayapur and Vrindavan are not different and it's an offence to think them as separate, still my mind constantly makes the comparison. Please help me. How can I deal with this situation? Your spiritual daughter, Shama Krishna Priya Devi Dasi. Who's that? He's there. Oh, okay. Okay. Nice.
Mataji.
She's sitting outside. So Gurmaj, the question is, even though from the scriptures mentioned that Navdeep and Vrindavan Raj is not different, but still Mataji's line makes constant comparison between the both. So how to overcome this situation.
Now?
This.
So in Navadi you get the same benefit as you are in Vrindavan.
Thousand times.
A thousand times. But there's a difference.
And.
Break down. For every error you make, you also will get a thousand times of the reactions. Reaction.
If you commit some offense in Vrindavan. In Vrindavan for thousand times.
He beat the thousand times the offense. So closer to mine. So Jagannath Babaji, he decided that Vrindavan was a bit heavy because he got multiple offenses. So he walked from Vrindavan to Navade. So here he goes. Siddha Vena.
Siddha.
That's why he is known as Siddha Jagannathas Babaji.
Maybe.
He wouldn't have got perfection.
Maybe he wouldn't have gotten his perfection so quickly. In Vrindavan.
Some aspects are the same anyway.
Some aspects are the same and some aspects are different. So Vrindavan is known as the Madhuriyadham. And this Maldive is known as audaryadam.
Sahasrakoti. 110 million.
So sahastra koti means 100 times 10 million. Let's say thousand million. So Gurma is saying, I don't have that much time to receive your Prana. And.
He is his mercy life healing.
And he gives his mercy very freely.
So when he doesn't come, it's not so easy.
So when he doesn't come, it's not so easy.
Well, he gets up here 500 years.
Ago while he just appeared 500 years ago. So we should take the advantage and gain his mercy. One more question. Is there? Hark. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
Yes.
Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj, please accept my most respectful and heartfelt obeisances. Gurmaraj, how do we always keep. How do we keep? Always keep your mind. No, our mind. Oh. Our mind fixed in Chaitanya Mahaprabhu rather than Radha and Krishna. He is asking Guru Mahaji, how do we always keep God? Or do you?
Not we?
Or do you? Anyway, either way the answer will be same. Keep the mind rather on Radha and Krishna. Since Mahaprabhu is very merciful, I want to always stay under his shelter and meditate on your divine lotus feet. Your unqualified daughter Krishna Sevani Chitra Devidasi.
So when I went to Jagannathuri, I met one Pandava.
I met one Panda there who was astro Chaitanya philosopher who was an expert in Chaitanya philosophy.
I heard stuff. Those are devotees Lord Chaitanya.
So he said, those who are devotees of Lord Chaitanya. So those who are devotees, followers of Lord Chaitanya, they can be simultaneously part of Chaitanya Leela and Krishna Leela.
How will we work then?
We ask how do we do that? So that's the specialty of Chaitanya Leela simultaneously. That one can simultaneously participate in God Leela and Radhakrishna Leela at the same time.
