The following is a Sri Caitanya Shrik Shamrita class given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on December 28, 2023 in Sri Ramayapur, India.

Hare Krishna Dear devotees, today we will continue with the reading from Shri Chaikanya Sikh Shakshir Sachidaranda Sachidaranda Bhakti Vira Thakur. Today we will be starting with chapter number one. Chapter entitled the first Shower Determining the religion of highest goal. Respectful obeisances unto Sri Sri Radhakrishna Bhaktite Krishna Chaitanma KE Pranam Kriya Sri Si Chaitanma Shikshamrita Nama Granta Pranaya Parvittohealam Obey senses Offering my obeying senses to Sri Krishna Chaitanya Deva, the giver of that devotional service to Krishna which resolves all incomplete and mutually conflicting conclusions born of illusion, I began the compilation of this book called Sri Chaitanya Shiksha Vritam Vrita.

Every prayer by our Acharyas so every.

Spiritual writing by our Acharyas starts offering. Origination always starts with offering obeisances.

Offering his obeisances to Sri Krishna Chaitanya.

So Bhaktaminatakara is offering his obeisances to Sri Krishna Caitanya.

He explains Sri Krishna Caitanya Deva he gives up. But we're also for Krishna.

When he explains that Sri Krishna Chaitanya Deva he gives our devotion for Ka freely.

By giving others, he runs into Ka, all confusions and Gods, everything.

So by giving out the free mercy, all confusion, all doubts are eradicated. So now he's starting the compilation of Sri Caitanya Shikshavrata Akash Bihar Next, subject matter defining the objective Ishvara and Matter. There are three objects in this universe. Matter, conscious entities and the Supreme God. By chance, as mentioned, I don't. I just want to say the number it's mentioned in Srinath Bhagavatam. 11.11.6 by chance, two birds have made a nest together in the same tree. The two birds are friends and are of a similar One of them however, is eating the fruits of the tree. Whereas the other who does not eat the fruits is in a superior position due to his potency. Matter is all that substance without willpower. We can call all substances without being purple, such as earth, rock, water, fire, air, sky, house, forest, grain, cloth, body, and so on. As matter, humans, animals, insects and reptiles are conscious entities. These have the power of judgment and will power. The similar type of judgment power present in humans is not present in any other conscious entities. For this reason, some people call humans the king of all entities that are with consciousness and without consciousness. It's also mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam, November 1st 11th, 28. The Supreme Personality of God had expanding his own potency. Maya Shakti created innumerable species of life to house the conditioned souls. Yet by creating the forms of tree, reptiles, animals, birds, snakes and so on, the Lord was not satisfied within his heart. Then he created human life which offers the conditioned souls sufficient intelligence to perceive the absolute truth and absolute truth and become pleased.

This book was now Krishna Hathu's philosophy.

So this book goes to all the Ka Consciousness.

The first thing is the separation between matter and spirit.

The first thing is the separation between matter and spirit.

He describes what things are material.

He describes what things are material.

The insects, the animals, the rose, the.

Reptiles, the living entities, the insects, the animals, the birds, the reptiles and the.

Human beings are conscious living entities.

Are conscious living entities.

So they are different from the manner their rise are matter. But they are conscious living entities.

But they are different from matter. Their bodies are made of matter but they are conscious living entities. This is very important because most people think they are the body.

Actually the body is material, but actually.

The body is material and we are the spirit soul within the body.

This is the first thing that understand there is a difference the loyalty of this gross material objects.

So this is the first thing to understand. There is living entity and there is the gross material body difference. Ruby the Supreme Lord is the creator of all conscious and unconscious substance. We cannot see him because he does not have a material body. He is of complete form and pure consciousness. He is our creator, maintainer and controller. It is mentioned in Srilad Bhagavatam, 2-3-11. The supreme personality of Godhead is the cause of the creation, maintenance and destruction of this universe. Yet he has no prior cause. He pervades the various states of willfulness, wakefulness, dreaming and unconscious deep sleep and also exists beyond them. By entering the body of every living being as the super soul, he enlivens the body, senses, life, verbs and mental activities. And thus all the subtle and gross organs of the body begin their functions. My dear King, know that the personality of Godhead to be the supreme. By his will we prosper, by his will we meet with destruction. He eternally reigns in Vaikunthalama as the personality of Godhead, he is the King of all kings. All the activities of the world are happening by his will.

So, first paragraph. Reality, matter and spirit.

So in the first paragraph we understood about matter and spirit.

Then understand about the Supreme Personality.

And then we understand about the Supreme Personality of Godhead by whom all the animate and inanimate things are created.

He has his prayer.

The supreme Lord cannot be seen because he is pure consciousness. If he wants to appear, only then he can be seen otherwise, not.

By his will.

By his will we are created, we prosper and we are destroyed. The form of the Lord is not material. The supreme Personality of Godhead does not have a form similar to the gross form of material objects. Therefore we cannot perceive him with our senses. Because of this he is called formless in the Vedas.

He is invisible. He is formless.

So if they can't see the Supreme Personality of Godhead then they say that he is invisible. He is formless. It doesn't mean that he don't have any form.

That's not don't have a form like we do.

Instead he don't have a form like we do.

Respond to someone special.

He is found as something special.

As the Supreme Personality. Garhett is impersonal.

As the supreme personality of God is a person, so he has a phone.

But his form is not material.

When his form is not material, pure consciousness, it's beyond consciousness.

These things are explained by Vuka. They are the teachings of Lord Chaitanya.

So this is being explained by Srivakti Vira Thakur. And where are the teachings of Lord Chaitanya?

Actually.

Called Caitanya came from the spiritual world.

Actually Lord Chaitanya he descended from the spiritual world. But he is considered an avatar because we can see Him. We cannot see the spiritual world because of being material.

With that the science of Krishna means we have to.

So the science of Ka means we have to go into the spiritual world.

Understand what the Lord is light, spiritual.

Realm and understand what the Lord is like from a spiritual point of view. We cannot see the spiritual world because of it not being material. The spiritual form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead all substances have a particular form. Therefore the supreme Personality of Godhead has a form. As mentioned in Brahma Samhita 5.3 I worship Lord Govinda, the primordial Lord whose transcendental form is full of bliss, truth through substantiality and is thus full of the most dazzling splendor. Each of the hints of that transcendental figure possesses in himself is the full Flushed function of all the organs and eternally sees, maintains and manifests the infinite universes both spiritual and mundane. So here in the Brahma Samhita is explained how the Lord is manifesting everything at the same time, although he manifests everything from what he manifests. Taharaka Shei AKA Brahma, Shamita Sarkti Vish the very form of material substance is material. The form of conscious substances is conscious spiritual. We are certainly conscious substance where we have a material body. Thus our spiritual form has become hidden within the material form. The supreme personality of Godhead is pure consciousness of spirit. Therefore he has no other form except his spiritual form. That spiritual form is his form. We can see that form only with our pure spiritual eyes. We can see with devotional eye. I worship the primordial Lord Govinda. The primordial Lord who Shamsunder Krishna himself is inconceivable innumerable attributes whom the pure devotees see in their heart of hearts with the eyes of devotion tinged with the soul of love. So here Bhakti Nilantakur is explaining.

The Krishna conscious philosophy.

The Krishna conscious philosophy from a very.

Methodical way.

In a very methodical way, very simple.

Since you're used to hearing Humbra it.

Means things to be very simple to you all because you are used to hearing from Srila Prabhupada.

We see things spiritually but God spirits all entranced within a material body.

So he is saying that we are spirit souls engaged in a material body.

So how this is triggering original reader.

So this is taking the listener and the reader step by step to understand.

What our Krishna conscious philosophy is.

To understand what our Ka conscious philosophy is.

This may be useful for you in your teaching.

So this may be useful for you in your teaching. This is also the basic teaching of.

The Bhagavad Gita and this teaching as towards that.

So these teachings is to present very methodically the difference between matter and spirit.

Krishna has spiritual power.

So we know that Krishna. We should all know that Krishna he only has a spiritual form.

You have no material.

He has no material body and.

Soul.

With.

Rising souls can we think of personal.

The conditioned soul. The conditioned souls tend to think of Krishna of some kind of a conditioned human being having a material body like we do.

And where are such persons from our to sell their writings to larger Dhamma? What Saharanj Such persons are not allowed.

Oh, such persons were not allowed to show their writings to Lord Chaitanya because it's very offensive Because Lord Chaitanya see, He knows Krishna is pure spirit.

Some of the writers of God, they describe Krishna like a living entity.

Some of the writers, they describe Krishna like a living entity.

In a material sense.

In a material sense.

And slow down a lot. Here we engaged to cyber.

So Sarob Dhamader was engaged to decide the readings before they came to Lord Chaitanya. Deciphered the readings before they came to Lord Chaitanya.

So he didn't understand. Like Krishna is spiritual.

So like this we are taken step by step. We should understand Krishna is completely spiritual.

He said the words were small.

And we should approach Krishna with that consciousness.

He is the source of everything.

He is the source of everything. He has no source for himself, has.

A transcendental form of pure consciousness.

Of pure consciousness which cannot be seen with the material eyes.

Sometimes people ask where belong to the thought.

So sometimes people ask where does God come from?

God.

But here it says God is the source of everything. Krishna is the source of everything. But he has no source himself.

Thank you all.

So thank you all.
