We're going to sing a song for you. This is your song, Guru Maras. Okay everyone please sing together. We sh all the way.

Singing, Dancing.

Dancing. Jai Shri Krishna Chaitanya Prabhu Nithyananda Sriadvaita Gadar Srivasa de Kor Bhakavanda Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama. So after Indra had failed to inundate Vrindavan because of Krishna picking up the Govardhan hill then Indra came to his senses. And he realized how offensive he had been to Lord Krishna. So he went to Lord Brahma and he asked what he could do. He thought if I go to Krishna, he'll just ignore me, have nothing to do with me. So Lord Brahma said yes, what you do? You take Surabhi mother Surabhi with you. One of the cows from the heavenly planets. You take her with you. And in that way Lord Krishna will accept. He'll listen to you. So Indra came to this place along with Surabhi. And he met with Lord Krishna and began to apologize.

Or Bhagwan Sri Krishna Komile te or Mafi magnificent.

And Indra told Krishna, he said, actually you're the real king. I'm not Indra. You're the real Indra. You're the real king. And it was here Indra also name Lord Krishna is Govinda, the master of the cows. And it was after that then Indra began to perform Abhishek of Lord Krishna. And not only did he do the Abishek but mother Surabhi also. Because she'd also wanted to thank Krishna for protecting all the cows of Vrim Dali.

Mata Bhi Bhagwan Shri Krishna Ko Abhishek.

And mother Surabhi her Abhishek. She was pouring her milk from her other straight onto the head of Lord Krishna. And Indra was pouring water onto Krishna via his elephant Airava Bhagavan Sri Krishna.

Kewupar Indra Ne Pani Chadarahetevarasi.

And in this way Govinda Kund was formed. Originally it was filled with all the Abhishek. Today it's only water. But 5,000 years ago was the Abishek water with the milk as well as the water.

Govinda Kund me Abhisheka Pani or Abhisheka Dutta.

So this place became very much famous also because a great saint here. Well, as you just heard, Balabacharya came inside here. He's not in our Sampradaya but a very very important Person in our Sampradaya also came and resided here. This was Madhavendrapuri. If you get inside here, into this room here they have a murti of Madhavendrapuri. So Madhavandrapuri was in our line. He was coming from. Our line is from Madhvacharya and then Lakshmi Pati and then Madhubandrapuri. Madhubendrapuri was the guru of Ishwarapuri. And Ishwarapuri gave initiation to Chaitanya Mahatri.

Hamara Guru Parampar Madhwacharya Lakshmipati Madhavendra Puri Keatah or Madhavendra Puri K Shishate Ishwarapuri or Ishwarapuri Ne Bhagwan.

So Madhavendra Puri came here to this place and he was to Dandi Sannyasi. He was traveling alone and he had the habit. He would never ask people for any food. He would simply stay. And he was sitting underneath us. Kadjamba tree is this tree here. And he was sitting here for a few days. And after a few days a young. A little cowherd boy came with a pot of milk. A little boy said, my mother sent me to give you this. She said nobody should go hungry in our village. But nobody knew the identity of this boy. Nobody knew where he was coming from. So it was Madhavandrapuri who also found the deity of Gopal on Govardhan Hill. And later on that deity was given to the sons of Babacharya and they brought the deity over to Nahdwara. Yes, today everybody calls the deity Srinath Ji. Very popular deity. Prabhupada said, is it that deity actually belongs to the Gaudiya Vaishnavas. He said it was found by Madhavendrapuri but anyway was given to the sons of Baba Bacharya and they took the JC to Natur and his worship. Very so Madhubandra Puri is very, very important in our line in disciplic succession. And because of his presence in our line. That is why Caitanya Mah. One of the main reasons why Caitanya Mahaprabhu took initiation in this line.

Madhavendra Puri Johan or Varistacharyah.

It was Madhavendra Puri who introduced the worship of Krishna in the mood of conjugal love. Before Madhavendra Puri, Madhavacharya, all these other people, they did not worship Krishna in that mood. But it was Madhavandrapuri who introduced this worship of Krishna into. In this mode of conjugal love and particularly in the mood of separation.

From Kaendra.

And this of course this is the murder of the Gopis. They worship Christians who actually understood, who appreciated that importance, that mood of feeling the separation from Krishna. And when Madhavendra Puri was leaving his body, he was reciting this very wonderful verse. Again and again he was reciting this verse.

There.

This verse is said, it's actually spoken by Srimati Radharani. Just like the final verse of Shikshastikam is also in the mood of.

They say.

So when Madhavendra Puri was leaving the body, he was reciting again and again. Ay Dina Dhayadra Natha hay Matura Natha Kadabalokshase. He was saying, where are you now, O my Lord, O Master of Mathura, when will I see you again? Because of my not seeing you, my most agitated heart has become unstable.

Steady.

What should I do now? This verse again and again or Madhavendra.

Puri is Shloko Barbar Dharareti.

He was in this mood of feeling separation from Krishna. Just as when Krishna left Vrindavan to go to Mathura. So we all know when Krishna went off to Mathura it was very, very painful for the Gopis. And the foremost of the Gopis, Srimahi Radharani, she felt intense pain. That feeling of separation from Krishna that is considered the highest worship of Krishna. And the verse which Madhavendra Puri was reciting, nobody can actually understand the full meaning of this verse except for Madhavendrapuri, Shrimati Radharani and R Caitanya Mahaprabhu Madhavendrapuri.

Or Bhagwanshi Chakni Mahaprabhu.

So Madhavandra Puri was such a great personality that he could enter into this mood of worshipping Krishna and separation.

So Madamendra Puri, I say Ek Bhavya Purushte. Okay. Bhagawan Sri Krishna Ka Virahabhav me Bhagwan Shri Krishna Ka Upasana me.

And since Madhavandra Puri, the followers of Sri Caitanya Mahprabhu they're also following trying to cultivate that same mood as taught by Madhavendra Puri. So in this way we understand the importance of Mother Bender Puri and this holy place.

Sa.

So you have been seen. So disciple of Jayapat Krishna Maharaj, he gave his name Bhakti Baja Bhagavad Shai Maharaj. He has dedicated his life for distributing Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita.

Swami or.

Throughout the year he's standing by the side of Guru Maharaj for distributing these books. So today is very auspicious day. Because on this Tithi Maharaj took Sannas from Gurmara.

And for your information, every time you.

Come in to go in the coffee.

You know the Bajankutir of Madhavendrapur is here.

Right next to him. Right next to him is the footprint.

Installation of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Now his grace Jananibas Prabhu will start the ceremony and all Sila Prabhupada disciples Anyasis.

Or Prabhupada Shishya or Sanyasiganhe Sublabishikarag.

Nayam Ram.

Go.

Ra.

Save Sam.

I welcome all the devotees who have come here and the guests who have come here. I welcome hearty welcome to all of them. I welcome all of you from my side and also from the family of Saksikopal Prabhu. I am so happy that near our Sakshi Gopalji's temple footprints are being installed. I'm requesting all of you that in the Sashigopal temple let there be a navy of Prabhupada.

So we are doing so. Prismandal is the topmost place in the whole creation. All of you know that beyond the material world is the spiritual world. So topmost planet of Vaikuntha is Golop. So Krishna came down along with that.

Goloka Vrindavan here Bhagwan Sri Krishna.

So it is explained that there are five types of Vrindavan. First type is Then when Krishna comes down to perform his pastime on earthly planet he brings that Goka Vrindavan here which is known as Bhoma Vrindavan.

The Bhagwan Sri Krishna.

Then Krishna performed his pastime for 125 years. Then he disappeared. But his Dham still continued to be in this earthly planet we are visiting now. That is third type of and fourth type of Vrindavan is wherever pure devotee stays. That place becomes Vrindavan. Just like Sila Prabhupada he left Vrindavan. But he carried Vrindavan in his heart. And wherever he went, he transformed that place into Vrindavan. Just like Roop Sanatan they stayed in Ram Kelly in Bengal. But that place was the political headquarter of Nababushenshah. But because Roop Sanatana was staying there.

That place became Mindavali Bengal.

All of you know that there was there is Radha Madan Mohan Temple then Radhakun Sam Kun. All these places are there in that Ram Kilidham wanted. He told to get a land at Ram Kelly. And that was in 1970. 1977.

Oh, 1977.

So in 2021, by the blessings and inspiration of Maharaj we acquired that land.

So 2021 May Hamari Guru Maharaj.

So.

That Bin Lavan is manifesting now. So now the fifth type of Vrindavan Mahaprabhu is explaining. While Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was dancing in front of Lord Jagannathar Jagannath Puri he was telling that more mourn Vrindavan. My mind is Vrindavan. So journey begins within from the mind. Those who want to go to. How many of you want to go to? Very good audience, wonderful audience.

Everybody wants to go to Vrindavan.

So journey begins from mine. So first step is to make our mind. And it is explained that mind, Mind which thinks of Krishna and Vrindavan all the time. That mind is Vrindavan who can experience. Vrindavan who is completely absorbed in the thoughts of Vrindavan was instructed to come to Vrindavan and he felt very fortunate. He started his journey early in the morning. So from that we can understand the spiritual journey or spiritual practice should begin early in the morning, evening time at the time of sunset.

Sandhya Sameyastaman Horata so you may ask.

Why it took so long to come to Nandoga from Mathura and he was not walking Also he was on a very good chariot. The new chariot was given by Kangsha. Why it took so long time? Because Akrura was so absorbed in the thought of Krishna, Balaram and Vrindavan Dham. He could not understand where he is going. Somehow Krishna's thought brought him to Vrindavan. So we cannot come to Vrindavan by car or by train or by flight. Only way to come to Vrindavan is absorption in the thought of Krishna and Vrindavan Vrindavan. So Mahaprabhu wanted to come to Vrindavan. So he attempted. But fourth attempt was successful. First attempt was at the time of initiation at Gaya.

So Pehela Prayaski.

As soon as he got initiated, he was mad in ecstasy in love of God he became mad plane. Whenever he chanted the holy name of the Lord, he was married in ecstasy. So after seeing the lotus feet of Vishnu and chanting the holy name, he was married ecstasy. He was running towards Vrindava. That time there was a voice in the sky from the sky. This is not the time to go to Vrindavan. You have to go back to. You have some job to do. You have to establish so Then Mahaprabhu.

Came back to Navadiphu.

Navadi first attempt was not successful. Second attempt was at the time of Sannyas Kebab in Katwa. After taking Sannyas, he was also married in ecstasy he was running towards Vrindavan. That time Nithanandabu tricked him and brought him back to Santipur. And Madhasachi said, don't go to Vrindavan, go to Jagannath Puri. After coming to Jagannath Puri, he wanted to go to Vrindavan. Third time also he wanted to go. But that time he didn't want to go in the name of going to Vrindavan. He wanted to deliver. So that time also he could not go. So third attempt also failed. Fourth time he was successful and he came to Vrindavan through Jharikan forest. And when Mahaprabhu came, explains how was the ecstasy of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Visiting different places of pastime in Bridge Mandal. In different places where Mahaprabhu was present. And he established also in few places. Then he's all in a Jaipata to this service very very seriously. And he has been talking about this that I want to establish lotus feet of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in different place. So this safari was dedicated, is dedicated for that different places of Brajmandal and establish the lotus feet of Lord. Somehow he is not able to be here because of his health, mental health situation physically. But he is here definitely and by his blessings. So different leaders are going to different holy places and establishing the lotus footprint of Lord Chaitan Mahapuram. So this is very, very pleas very much pleasing to the previous Acharya. Especially his divine grace. And you are the part of this, this historic event. This is a history. So you'll be part of that history. You're part of the history. So I am very very happy to see so many devotees participating in this wonderful Sapar. So Vrindavan is very very important place.

Vrindavan Bahuthi Mukistan.

So I have two, three minutes. The time is up. Okay, so we are at Gogordhan. So it is explained by Rupag Swami. I quickly summarize this. So why so very nice explanation is given. I quickly summarize this. According to different Rasas relationship, we can have two and a half and half Sakya.

So Mathura has all five RAs.

That's why Muthura is superior to Vaikuntha.

Vaikuntha.

But Dindavan is also having five Verasas. Muthura Is also five rashes. Why Muthura? Vrindavan is Priyat to Mathura.

So Vrindavan may be Pantras Hai Or Mathura may be Panchras Hai. Tokyo Vrindavan, Johan Matras, Uttam Hai.

So in Mathura the Russells are mixed with is completely sweet. There is no concept of opulence that is not so important. So Supriya to Vrindavan is Govardhan.

Vrindavan say Uttam hai.

Why? Because only Gopis or those who are in Madhuji Ras are allowed In Govardhan few cowherd boys very special category. They are known as Priya Narma Sakha. They are allowed in and Radhakun is topmost. Why? Because in Radhakun only ladies are allowed, nobody else.

Krishna.

So in order to enter into Radhakund we have to have Gopi Bhav and Gopi Deha.

Gopi.

That's why Radhakund is the topmost place in the whole creation. So this Suryakund is that part of that Radhakund area. So we are very fortunate.

So this place is very special place called Surya Kunda. So this place the deity you will see the Lord Krishna he manifested in the form of to worship you always. Because this place of worshipping Surya So you stay here in the form of Surya Bhagavan. So interestingly this temple worship is done by one of her God brother.

So he is a disciple of his mother. For the past 15 years the villagers have given him the responsibility to worship and to serve the deity here.

At least one good thing is here in this ancient temple we have our.

Guru Parampara pictures on the altar.

So there is a very specific humorous pastimes on this place took place between Radha and Krishna. So once there is a day for worshipping Surya Bhagavan. That day Jatila came along with Lalita Visaka Radharani so that Radhani can do Surya Puja. When they came here then Lolita found all the Brahmanas are booked by other Gopis in advance. There is no Brahman available. What to do? Then Lolita said this one Brahman, he is a disciple of Gargaman. He has come nearby Science come. But I wanted him to bring But Madhumangal he disturbed his mind by speaking against you. Because he always talk bad about Krishna. And Madhumangal said no, no. You go with lot of sweets and give them donation some other bring this. Then both of them here Kotila, Lalita they all went under Lord Krishna in the form of Brahman sitting there with Madhumangana. Then they asked that please come do some puja. No, no, no no. I don't see. I don't look at lady's face. I'll. That is what I want. Please come and do worship. Anyway normally I don't do any Puja for the ladies. But you are so eagerly asking me. Okay I'll go.

So question.

Then they have to do. Then he said puja time you have to touch. No no I don't. I don't touch ladies bodies. She has to catch one Kusha grass through that only I'll touch her whole lot of he did. Then Krishna Brahman some interesting slokas. Then Krishna said that how I'm coming from Gargamuni. How I know all the future, present, past, everything. So I know. Then. Then Jatla said oh please see the hand of Radharani. Now what is his? Her future house. Everything will go on with what are you talking? I'm Brahmachari. I don't look at lady's hands. If you don't from far distance I can see that. Then he spoke about Radharani. How very auspicious lady this, that glorifying Radharani. Then doctor asked what about my son. So much dangers for him. Anytime he'll die what to do? But his wife Radharani is so powerful. If you take nice care of her then definitely he will not be killed. Please give two golden rings to Brahmanas. The king of this. No no, no no. I am Brahmachari. I don't accept all these things. Then Madhyamangal said, oh my friend if you don't take Dakshina they don't get good result. You take it and give it to me. Brahman. I am Brahman. So like this, certain details, so many humorous things happening. The point is always Krishna enjoy. But he like to enjoy in front of Jatila and Abhimanu. By making them full. They are so careful not to bring Radharani. But things happen in such a way in front of them he will make them full. One day early morning mother Jasada, she was packing one big box. She was putting saris, Kum Agur or different jewelries into the box. Then Krishna asked my dear mom, what are you doing here? So she was preparing. Sir you will not understand what I'm doing. Go, go to play. No, no. I am your son. You should not hide anything from me. You must tell what is this? Then mother said, my dear son, as I love you very much. There is one girl in this branch. Her name is Radha. I love her as much as I love you. When Krishna heard the name Radha, his body started to tremble. And he tried his best how to hide that. Then mother Jasada said that her husband, he has come to meet your father. He's discussing with Nandabava. So I'm preparing this box as a gift. I will give it to Abhimanu. He will bring to his wife. So that time one man came and called. Oh mother Joshoda. You had called goldsmith to make some ornaments for Krishna. So they have come. They are. They are waiting for you. Then mother Jashada, she left to meet the goldsmith. So Krishna along with all his friends, he took out all the jewelries, all the ingredients from inside the box. And told Dhanista, you keep it with you. Then he entered into the box and told his friend, you lock it from outside. Then after some time mother Yashoda came back. So she called Abhimanu. I have very precious things in inside this. I love Radhani so much. I don't want to give this box with anybody's hand. You take it and you give it to Radharani. Tell her this precious jewel. She should carry it on her heart, on her chest.

Kinti Javarhe.

Very happily picked up the box, put on his head. A lot of jewelries are there. So all the way he's meditating. I'll sell all this and buy more cows become rich. He's like doing like this. And Krishna sitting inside the box and enjoying being carried by Abhimanu his house. Oh mother Jatila. Mother loves so much Radharani. She has given a precious jewel in this box. Then Jatila said, oh, this boy is too heavy. I can't you please go and keep it in Radharani's house, inside the room. Then Abhiman kept that box inside Radhani's room. And he left. All this sake is very intuitive. What Madhura has sent so much gifts. So let us open this box. And they opened the box. Then they found Lord Krishna is there. So Radhani felt very sai because she was not dressed properly, you know, inside the house. So felt very sad. Then Radhani very angry face. You are thief and all jewelries. You stole all this sitting inside this box. By that time Dhanista had reached 2000. Jewelry and dress everything. You will be punished because you have done this nonsense things. The punishment is all the jewelry, dress everything. You have to decorate Radharani with this, all these things. He wrote four stories like this. Very interesting stories. So I will not tell all those stories. Because if I tell all the Stories. You will not buy my books. That's all. But I'll briefly tell something about Govinda Kunda. Because just came from there. So you know Lord Krishna. He carried for seven days Giriga Vardha. Then Indra thought now all Prajabashis must be finished. Then Indra sent Bhay Devata please go check what is happening there. But Bhaydevata came and saw Krishna lifted the Govardhan and everybody happily staying under the mountain. So Bhai Devata went back told Indra no, they are not killed. They are having happy nice picnic under the mountain. Then what nonsense are you talking? A small boy, 7 years 5 years old boy. How can he pick up such a big mountain? So Indra also did not believe. Then Indra stole lightning. You please go check perfectly. It is true or not? The lightning came, lightning saw same thing under the mountain. Everybody will having very happy time there. Then he went back. He told Indra no, they are all happily having picnic there. That boy Krishna is holding this mountain high and everybody under the mountain. Then Indra said, I don't believe this boy is lifting mountain. But there could be something. But I think it could be like this. Then Indra said, in previous ages all these mountains that wings that fly in the sky and they sit on some village. Then village people would be so that time I chopped up the wings of all the mountains by my Bajra. So that happened long time before. Maybe in the meantime this mountain has developed little small wings. That is a mountain may be flying lying and these people got inside. Not this boy. Krishna is holding like materialistic people. They will never believe what God said. They have their speculation. Indra also did the same thing. Then he came personal to see what is happening. When he saw his true Krishna is holding the mountain, he got very scared. I committed great offense. So he ran to Brahma. Brahmaji. Brahmaji, please save me. Save me. What happened? And he explained the whole story. What he did? Then Brahmaj said, you did not find any other people. You want to play with that boy again.

Brahmaji.

Whatever happened happened. You please come with me. So we can speak few words on my behalf. So Krishna will excuse me. Then Brahma said, you are asking me to go. I did the same mistake like you also. I feel so shy. I cannot go in front of him. But you go to Surabhika house. He's very dear to Surabhika. The Indra went and placed in the meantime rain stopped. Then Krishna told all Bradwasis. You go back to village knows what will happen? He stayed behind sitting on a stone. Then Indra came along with he feeling so shy. He's walking behind the Kuruvika holding her lens, her tail like this. Putting her head down. He went in front of Lord Krishna. He took out his helmet. They put on the lotus feet of Krishna. Then he begged forgiveness. Then he brought all Ganga waters through Airavata. Ganga is known as Mandakini in Heavenly planet now that time he gave this name to Krishna that you are Govinda. You are real Indra. So that Kunda is still existing today. Nearby there are other Kundas, Apsara Kundas, different things. And there are also footprints of Ayravatta and elephant footprint is there also. This is how this Gobinda Kundo manifested. So this evening or tomorrow we'll hear the whole story of Giriga Vardhan lifting.

It.
