Do you understand English? All of them are most. Most of them are engineers.
I wanted to all of you sit down. My work.
I would like to welcome all of you to Sridhar Mayapur.
This Mayapur was created by Madhurani.
This Mayapur was created by Radharani.
She was playing on a flute and Kashta came with sea. Who was playing on the flute?
She was playing on a flute. And Krishna came to see who was playing on the flute.
And he saw Radharani.
And then he saw Pradharani.
And he thanked her that she made such a nice one to roll Dham for him.
And he thanked her that she had made such a nice wonderful Dham for him.
And Sri Krishna had expanded himself into Ka and Radha Krishna had expanded himself.
Into Krishna and Radha.
Because.
Because there is more happiness in more people. So Radharani made Navadvi.
Madradev, Hola Dev.
So the Navaj consists of nine islands. Simantadvib, Rudradv, Godhran Deep Andharv.
Ritude, Modern Deep.
Ruth.
Each of these nine islands connected to one of the nine processes of devotional source.
Each of these nine islands is connected with one of the processes of devotional service. Today morning you saw Jagannath temple.
There was a deity of Parvati.
There was a deity of Parvati Devi taking dust from Lord Chaitanya's lotus feet.
The island is known as Shivanthat and.
That island is known as Simantadvi.
Reve is known as Srivantini and the.
Deity is known as Simantheni. Very.
Very.
So.
Then the right way north.
In.
The second island.
Bhakti Vinod Thakur's home is in the second island called Godrumdvi.
In the island of place. Ah, the island of chanting.
So the island of Gotrum Deep is connected with chanting.
Back to island.
Sorry, I didn't understand. The next island is Hamsavahan.
That's island of Mandravir.
That's the island of Mantradiv. That's the island of remembering. One of the Navadib islands is Koladvi. That's where the city of Navadvip is.
Here was the time of Lord Chaitanya holiday.
During the time of Lord Chaitanya. This place was called as Navadvik.
Across the road across the river. And monarch followed it across the river.
The place was known as Koladwi.
I'm the British of the railway station and I've said it all there.
When the British brought the railway station the city moved there.
Followed it all the non arts of rights. We forgive them for any offense.
Koladweep is also known as the place where one gets forgiven for any offense.
After that.
After that we go to the Ritudi. We see the deity of Gaur and Nithyananda. Gaur and Gadar.
Lor. Nithyananda is for preaching.
Go. Nithyananda is for preaching. Goargadadar is for loving exchanges.
Pastimes more and all that.
Half of Lord Chaitanya's pastimes were in Navadvi and half and half were in Jagannath Puri. From Jagannath Puri, Lord Chaitanya traveled across India for six years.
So all the states.
He went to all the states in South India. Then he went to Maharashtra and remains of his mother. And he met his brother. He found the remains of his brother.
He wants.
In the Kutcha notebook of Saroupdamodar. It says that he went to Udvaraka. But we don't have that notebook.
We heard about it.
But we have heard about it.
And he went through.
Then he returned back to Jagannath Puri where he traveled to Brintavan alongside. He went to Banaras and other places. Then he went back to Jagannathuri and stayed there. So devotees in Navadvi don't like to see Lord Chaitanya wearing his San Sannyas attire. Sannyas is an austerity. Why should he do austerity? He is the supreme personality of Godhead.
But it was austerity.
But he chose to do that austerity.
At the time he was getting a hard time from the students.
Because he was getting a hard time from his students.
And there he took. He took the opportunity to take Sannyas. And in those days I really instructed sannyas.
And thereafter he decided to take sannyas. At an age where sannyas is unexpected.
We have. In those days I very respected in those.
Because he was having a hard time with his students. He understood he had to take sannyas. Because in those days Sannyas was respected. I don't know. Do you respect Sadhus today you're all devotees.
I can tell you some stories. Maybe you have questions.
I can tell you stories, but maybe you have questions.
