Hello from Hariyom Tasar Hare Krishna. Dear devotees, today we will begin with Sri Chaitanya Shiksham Rita by Sachidananda Bhakti Vinod Thakur. It is translated as the Nectar of teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

Mukti Bhakti or Preity.

Mahaprabhu's instruction related to morality, religion, knowledge, renunciation, liberation, devotional service and love. Bhaktived Thakur's preface to his first edition of Sri Chaitanya Sikshamrata.

Amra Soro Godde Banga Bhasai Mahaprabhu Shamati Tahar Prokashito the.

English translation of Srila Bhakti Vinath's Bengali Preface. I can't say why but many have developed the desire to learn about the teachings of Satchinandan Sri Caitanya Dev. All of his teachings can be found in Sri Chaitanya Chaitamida, but that text is not understandable to all. Therefore, we have summarized all the teachings of Mahaprabhu in simple prose in the Bengali language. Moreover, some clarity has been exhibited in writing about everything he had indicated in his teachings regarding the confidential relationship between Bhakti and moral religious principles. Whatever is meant to be learnt by general mass of devotees regarding the technicalities pertaining to Rasa as revealed by him have been written down regarding these subjects. Whatever is meant to be learnt from the feet of a revered spiritual master will not be found in this book.

So you cannot find in this book.

So you cannot find in this book what is meant from what is meant to learn from your Guru.

My main disciples.

Say that.

There are many things they want to learn.

Many disciples say that are many things that they want to learn.

They don't read all of Ramana's books.

They don't read all of Shank Raman's books.

I ask them questions. They never ask questions.

If you ask questions then you will ask questions.

When they ask for questions, when they ask the questions they don't necessarily ask.

They don't necessarily ask.

So the still they give different excuses, read other books they still give different.

Excuses and read other books.

Although they all read.

Although they haven't read all of Shiva's books.

Prabhupada translated the teachings of the Chaitanya Char Dharam Very simple.

Srila Prabhupada translated the Chaitanya Chaitamita in a very simple language. No one had done that previously. No one had done that and the.

Bengali Chaitanya Chennarina is they call us Sadhavasa.

This is what they call as Sadhu Bashya.

It's a different.

Prose which is different from the normal prose. Prabhupada he translated the Chaitanya Chaitamrita in.

Vernacular language and his poems Bhakti Chushang translated the Chaitanya Sharadamrika from the reality of the Rama of English to.

His holy name Bhakti Charu Swami he translated the Chaitanya Chaitamrita for from Srila Graham Pat's English to vernacular Bengali.

Jiva Sharuk Damudar Rai Ramananda Kobi Karnapur Baladya Pidda Adesh Mote Blount Tahake J Shakal Maisha Kal Mahatma.

Mahaprabhu did not compose any books by himself. One should assemble all of Mahaprabhu's teachings from all those books composed by Acharyas such as the objects of his great mercy. Rupa Sanatana, Gopala Bhatta Raghunatha Dasa Raghunatha Jiva Rai Ramananda Rai Ramananda Kavi Karna Karnapura Baladeva Vidya Bhushan and Vishwanatha Chakravarti among them. A number of them composed books in line with Mahaprabhu's instruction and had him hear those books. Therefore all the teaching sent out in writing by those Mahatmas are authorized by Mahprabhu and there is no doubt about it. All the deliberations in these books have been gathered from the following books.

Sri Vishara Chakraboti Rajita Sri Bhagavad Gita Sri Vishad Chakramuti Rajita Srivad Bhagavad Gita Sri Kobe Karnapur Sri Kobe Karnapur Kosta Sri Krishnada.

Composed by Shilajiva Goswami Sarva Samradini composed by Shilajiva Goswami Bhakti Nasamrata Sindhu composed by Srila Rupa Goswami Ujwala Neelamani composed by Srila Rupa Goswami Brihat Bhagavatam Rita composed Vaishnava Sanatana Goswami written by Shri Baladeva Vidya Bhushan Vedanta Shamun Taka composed by Shila Baladeva Vidya Bhushan Pramiya Ratnavali composed by Srila Baladeva Vidya Bhushan Commentary on Sri Bhagavad composed by Srila Vishwanath Chakravarti Commentary on Sri Bhagavad Gita composed by Sri Vishwanath Chakravarti Chaitanya Chandrodhaya Nataka composed by Srila Kavi Karnapur Alankara Kaushkubha composed by Shrikavi Karnapura Chaitanya Chaitamrita composed by Sri Krishna Das Kaviraj and all the commentaries on these books and several booklets following them. Varnashma Dharma has been explained in the second chapter of this book. Regarding this Some might think that Mahaprabhu did not instruct about the very ordinary Varnishana Dharma at any point in time. In this regard, my opinion is that the Lord's life completely teaches the world about Varnasrama Dharma. Mahaprabhu has fully satisfied the suffering Jeevas with the nectar of his pastimes, the nectar of his teachings. In the beginning, when he was situated in Grihastha Asrama, he recited the following verse from Dharma Nagriham Brihamitir Ahur Grihini Griham Uchate Tayahi Sahita Sarwant Purusha Atan Samate. Merely a house is not a home, for it's a wife who gives a home its meaning. If one lives at home with his wife, together they can fulfill all the interests of human life.

So a house is not a home. A house needs to have a wife.

So a house is not a home. A house needs to have a wife. And then sir.

That was the verse.

So that was the verse.

So see that Gaurang he left the first half of his life as a grasshopper.

So Gauranga Mahaprabhu he led his first he lacked first half of his life.

As a Grahasta, so the second half took Saks.

In the second half he took Sanyas.

Because this was also predicted in the Vegas.

Because this was also predicted in the.

Vegas, all the time spent 24 years Virginia is great.

This avatar would spend 24 years as a Grahasta and spend 24 years as a Sanyasa.

Brahman Shamman Pidda Bhaskar Shara Patash.

On the basis of this instruction from the Dharma Shastra, He God himself married. He thought that instruction to the world. He taught mankind the secondary injunctions of Shastra by following the secondary injunctions such as service to one's father, mother and mother, service to uninvited guests, performance of Shraddha Shraddha and other such rituals in Kara upon the death of one's father, honoring Brahmana's study, righteously earning money, compassion, truthfulness, and accepting the scriptural arrangements concerning vows, and so on. After accepting the Sannyasa Ashrama, he nicely instructed the world about being fixed in his Ashrama Dharma. His instructions pertaining to Varnasima Dharma have especially been taught in the following two verses of R. Bhagavatam quoted by him. Sva Nushtistaya Dharmasya Samsiddhi Haritoshana the highest perfection one can achieve by discharging the duties prescribed by one's occupation is to please the personality of God in Srimad Bhagavatam 1.2.13 by excellently carrying out the Dharma of Varnasrama, one pleases Lord Hari, that is its highest perfection. Dharma. Swan Swan. The occupational activities of a man performs according to his own position are only so much useless labor if they do not provoke attraction for the message of personality of Godhead. Sriman Bhagavatam 1.2.8 so normally people thought the Varnashram. But here Lord Chaitanya taught the real.

Teachings that an astronaut is meant to satisfy the supreme person.

Varnashrama is meant to satisfy the supreme personality of Godhead. And then the second instruction he gave.

Practice Siddharamansram. When does it how his natural attraction.

For Ka awakened if by practicing Varanasa one doesn't have his natural attraction to Ka awakened is so much a useless layer. If Varnasrama does not generate faith in Horikatha despite being accidentally carried out, it is simply useless labor on the part of its performer.

Normally Sadhga violence they perform the Varna rules.

So some of the smarter Brahmins, they perform the Varnashama rules very meticulously. Very meticulously.

But they don't have any attraction for messages in Krishna.

But they don't have any attraction for the message of Krishna, for serving Krishna. So these people, they don't have any protection of Krishna.

So much useless labor.

So much useless labor.

The whole point of Varnasha.

The whole point of Varnashama is to develop attachment to attraction to the message of Krishna. So this is a part of the introduction. So this.

It'S something very essential.

So this is something very essential that.

All the teachings of Varnashama cereal are.

All of the kichis of Varnashama Etc are.

To please the Lord.

It's meant to please the Lord.

And the real test should be that one has the outer attraction, the healer rises of Ka.

The real test is that one has to develop attraction to hear the message of Ka. Transition road is here. Yes, here. It seems that the introduction is only one page. So this book. This book. So this book.

Is to give you the essence.

Is to give you the essence.

But he has taken all the long list of books.

He had taken all the long list of books.

Fill it out to a very some raw cream taken down.

The very simple cream.

All one mushroom with all its subdued things.

So of the whole varnasham with its sub duties and everything, he said that it's meant to please Lord Harry.

By practicing it did you elevate attraction to hear about Hari?

So by practicing it, practicing it you should be able to develop desire to hear about attraction to hear about Lord Hari.

So I heard a lot about this book.

So I heard a lot about this book.

And.

It has instructions what to do in different situations.

So you what to do in different.

Situations I found out about.

So I thought well let's read this.

Can see how it works. Is how a divine race. Bhatrinath Thakur had studied so we can.

See how many books is divine. Vishnu Bhakti, Vinod Thakur had studied to take out the essence and give it to him. I was thinking in Christian churches we see Jesus with the arms like this.

Characters.

In the future we'll have Lord Chaitan with his arms like this.
