Hare Krishna Dear devotees, Continuation of Sri Chaitanya Shikshamritam of Srila Satchidananda Bhaktived Continuing Chapter Number one Part two Jarochakara.

The.

Nature the Nature of the Atheist Many unfortunate people do not believe in God for their eye of knowledge is closed. Because they cannot see the Lord's form with their material eyes, they think that there is no one called as God. Atheists are unable to believe in God just as people born blind do not perceive the light of the sun. As mentioned in Bhagavad Gita, chapter 16, verse number seven to eight, those who are demoniac do not know what is to be done and what is not to be done. Neither cleanliness, nor proper behavior, nor truth is found in them. They say that this world is unreal with no foundation, no God in control. They say it is produced of sex desire and has no cause other than lust.

So in this world we are trying to practice Ka consciousness.

So in this world we are trying to practice Ka consciousness.

But some other people are basically atheists.

But some of the people are basically.

Atheists that don't believe in the existence of the supreme personality of it.

They don't believe in the existence of the supreme personality of God. Hate.

They don't see any absolute truth.

They don't see any absolute truths.

Like people who are born blind.

Like people who are born blind.

They cannot see the sun.

They cannot see the sun.

That doesn't mean there is no sun.

But that doesn't mean that there is no sun.

So we have to present Ka consciousness understanding that there are some people so.

We have to present Ka consciousness with the understanding that there are some people who are atheistic.

Some people are theistic and some people are atheistic.

Some people are theistic Theistic and some people are atheistic.

We're trying to come in contact if those people are open to the personal reality.

We are trying to come in contact with those people, those who are open to the personality of God. Hate.

How so? Not really. It's quite difficult to resent Ka consciousness, the atheistic people.

Normally it is very difficult to present Ka consciousness to the atheistic people.

Lord Mercy Our Lord Chaitanya, even the people who are atheistic give his special mercy.

So by the mercy of Lord Chaitanya, even those people who are atheistic they gave his special mercy. By their very nature, humans believe in God. Only those people who from childhood learn duplicious logic through bad association. They gradually succumb to bad influence and do not believe in the existence of God. Other than their laws, what can be the laws for the Lord?

I was talking to one person and sentenced to so.

So I was talking to one person in San Francisco.

And that person said I don't believe in God.

And that. And that person said I don't believe in God.

There is no God.

There is no God.

San Francisco always said that there may be a huge earthquake.

In San Francisco it's always said that there may be a huge earthquake.

Suddenly all the windows, everything starts shaking. The earth tremor.

So suddenly the windows and all start shaking. Because there was an earth tremor.

All of a sud.

All silent of the person. He said, oh God, save me. In one one minute there is. There is no God. And suddenly when there is danger, who is going to help him? Help me.

Help me. God help me. Save me.

God help me. God save me. God help me. Help me.

I remember that here was a person that denying God, the son of danger came.

So I was seeing the person who was here denying God. But as soon as danger came.

He.

Immediately expressed dependence on God. Kashmir Kolikata London Parish the spiritual world of Vaikuntha is obtained by Bhakti. It should not be thought that Vaikuntha is a material place. Madras, Mumbai, Benares, Calcutta, London and Paris are all material places. If we have to go there, we go by crossing many material lands or countries. Even if we have to go by ship or railway, it takes a lot of time. One has to go taking steps of of the lakes of the material body. Vaikuntha is not a region of such a place. It is a special residence transcendental to all material worlds. It is conscious, eternal and faultless. It is not seen by the eye nor thought by the mind. The supreme Lord resides in this inconceivable place. If we please the Lord, then we can go to that world and serve him eternally. I need to see the number of words in Brahma Samhita 5.56 it's mentioned I worship that transcendental seed known as Vetadvipa where as loving consort of Lakshmis in their analog spiritual essence practice the amorous service of the supreme personality of the supreme Lord Krishna. As Their only lover. Where every tree is a transcendental purpose tree. Where the soil is the purpose gem. All water is nectar. Every word is a song, Every gate is a dance. The flute is the favorite attendant effulgence is full of transcendental bliss. And the supreme spiritual entities are all enjoyable and tasty. Where numberless milk cows always amid transcendental oceans of milk. Where there is eternal existence of transcendental time whose ever present without past or future and hence is not subject to the quality of passing away even for the space of half a moment. The ram is known as Gold Oka only to a very few self realized souls of this world.

Vaikunta, Ragha, Kur, the rivers. Who may not know. I've heard of these places before.

So Bhakti Vinod Thakur is explaining about Vaikuntha or Goloka to leaders who may not have heard about these places before.

Explaining.

That.

Material places.

So he is explaining there may be many material places. And he named some and then.

Prominent cities in India. Paris, London.

And he named like prominent cities in India and places like London, Paris.

It's not a place like this.

And he said it's not a place like this.

It's a transcendental place.

It's a transcendental place. Transcendental.

He is systematically explaining the spiritual world.

He is systematically explaining the spiritual world.

So the condition souls giving an idea about Vrishanta.

So the conditioned soul may be getting some idea about the spiritual world.

Actually Vaikuntha is fully spiritual.

Actually, Vaikuntha is fully spiritual.

It's some material place.

People may think that it's some material place.

There's such a place which is beyond the material world.

There is such a place like Vaikuntha beyond the material world.

Very few people might actually understand this.

Very few people would actually understand this. How.

Are the cultures Goddesses unfortunately worshipping the Lord, Serving the Lord.

How? The Gopis and goddesses of fortune. They're serving the Lord and worshipping the Lord.

Describe the doing the service in love.

It's described that they are doing the service in love and.

They are doing it now and being accepted by Ka in love.

So they are doing it with love and it is being accepted by Krishna. With love.

Are you all doing? There's constant number realm is being exposed to the conditioned souls.

The transcendental realm is being exposed to the conditioned souls, material world and sorrow. What is called happiness in this world is not eternal. It remains for a short time and then disappears. Everything of this world is filled with Suffering. Birth itself is difficult and a cause of sorrow. After birth we must nourish the body with food. And the scarcity of food brings forth suffering. There is always suffering various problems of heat or cold. To get rid of all those sufferings one has to accept many physical hardships and earn money. Without constructing a house, we cannot stay or on getting married, we have to raise children. Nothing feels better as you gradually get older. Among these there is lot of pain through argument and disagreement with others. In short, there is no such thing as pure happiness in the world. People consider as happiness the momentary cessation of grief or want. It is difficult for us to exist in such a material existence. If we attain the last Vaikuntha abode then there will be none of the temporary happiness and distress. We will attain unlimited eternal happiness. Therefore, to please the Supreme Lord alone is our necessity.

A volunteer. A Islamic. How we have to suffer in various ways in this material world.

So Baklina Thakur is explaining how we have to suffer in various way in this material world.

The momentary cessation of suffering is considered as happiness.

And the momentary cessation of happiness is considered as happiness.

Suffering.

Suffering. Oh, sorry.

A voluntary sensation of suffering is considered as happiness.

Sorry, Guru Maharaj. The momentary cessation of suffering is called happiness.

And the attainment of devotional service to the Supreme Personality Audit and the.

Attainment of devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

We attend the large Vaikunta award.

We attain the last Vaikuntha award.

None of the eternal healthiness or distress.

There will be no more temporary happiness or distress.

Rather, there is unlimited eternal happiness.

Rather, there will be unlimited eternal happiness.

So our real purpose in life is to so the Lord devotional source.

So our real purpose of life is to serve the Lord in devotional service.

So Ardhenan Thakur is explaining this. The difference between material happiness and distress and the spiritual bliss.

So Bhakti Vinath Thakur, he explains the material happiness and distress and the spiritual bliss.

I was trying to preach Lord Chaitanya's message.

Actually, Bhakti Vinod Thakur is trying to preach Lord Chaitanya's message.

What? People were basically atheistic non believers.

People were basically atheistic and non believers.

So I had to explain the thing very carefully, very casually.

So he had to explain the things very carefully and very gradually.

I saw how I came to see Srila Prabhupada and he was talking to my mother.

So I came to see Srila Prabhupada. So I came to See, Srila Prabhupada. And he was talking to my material mother.

And you told her the mother body. Yeah, the living force in the body.

And he told her, you are not the material body, you are the living force within the body.

I never heard rah, rad or present. So simply not your nami body, but you're the living force.

So I never heard Srila Prabhupada presenting so simply, you know, you are not this material body, you are the living force.

Somehow I've had a very deep impression on my.

Somehow it had a deep impression in my poor Vashrama mother.

She. She liked to take care of roses.

She liked to take care of roses.

She would bring a bouquet of roses.

So she would bring a bouquet of roses to Srila Prabhupada. Every.

It'S not very difficult to render devotional service.

So it's not very difficult to render devotional service.

Just doing the things you like to do, do them for Krishna, for Guru.

So she did the things she liked to do, but she was doing them for Krishna and Guru.

And last night I was reading the Krishna book, the 10th Kentarada.

So last night I was reading the Krishna book 10 Kantaratha, about.

How Krishna, Arjuna and Dina decided Brahmanas.

So how Krishna, Arjuna and Bhima, they went and bagged, disguised as Brahmana, to Jarasandha, to Jarasandha, to Jarasandha, Jarasandha to Jarasandha.

And although he saw that these are definitely royal people.

Although he saw that these are definitely.

Because they held the arms, they held marks of arrows and things.

So because on their arms they had the marks of arrows and other things.

What since they came as promise and he dug it as his duty.

So since he they came as Brahmanas, he need to do his duty.

And so for 27 days, Bhima, he fought Jarasandha.

So for 27 days Bhima, he fought with Charasandha.

And then he practiced, not able to defeat him.

And he told Krishna that I'm not able to defeat him. And Krishna took a grass and torn it into two.

Half by two ladies, half and half.

So Jarasandha was born to two ladies, half and half. So the king thought it useless and threw them out. But a witch called Jara, she put the two pieces together. So he got known as he became a Chera Sandha, the way he would be killed to tear him up.

So then Rima threw him down on the ground, what one laid on his what? That's divided now. He was completely cut down.

So Bhima put him down and he hold one leg with his foot and hold another leg with his hand and completely tore him apart.

So they were amazed that Jarasandha was dead.

So they were amazed that Jara Sandhar was dead.

So then. So then I see. I have a meeting with all the co directors and 10 minutes late.

So Kguna is having a meeting right now with the co directors. Actually it's 10 minutes late. So we'll end the lecture here right now. And stay tuned. Gurma is giving Bhakwat tomorrow.
