202402026 - Non-criticism and Non-enviousness towards other secondary bhajana systems

This is a transcript of a February 2024 satsang led by Jaya Pataka Swami with Guru Maharaj and devotees. The group reads and comments on Bhakti Vinoda Thakura’s Shri Chaitanya Shiksha, covering: the three ontological categories (matter, conscious entities, Ishvara), the special status and responsibility of human life, the spiritual form of the Supreme (Govinda/Krishna) and how devotees perceive that form with the "eye of devotion," and the distinction between material and spiritual energies (eka-pada vibhuti = one fourth material energy). The session closes with practical congregational instructions and commitments: chanting the Dhanvantari mantra 108 times per day (until 5 March), large-scale book-distribution targets (10,000 Mahabhag books and 100,000 small books monthly as Guru Maharaj’s charge), lists of Nitya Seva contributors, and a group prayer for Guru Maharaj’s health.

Krishna, can you hear me?
Yes.
Yes, Guru Maharaj. Yes, Gurudev.
Hare Krishna. Dear devotees, continue reading from today's chapter is entitled First Shower. General description of determining the religion of highest goal. First dream the beginning. Respectful obeisances unto Sri Sri Radhakrishna Obe senses Offering my obeisances 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've begun the compilation of this book called Shri Chaitanya Shiksha. Amrita, you. That day you said no need to read the Bengali, just read the English transition because it is repeating.
I saw.
So we should read the Bengali.
He started all. All things have obediences.
So he's starting off by offering his obeisances to Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and by.
The grace of devotional service Lord Sri Krishna.
Writing this book by the grace of devotionless service, by the giver of the devotional service to Lord Sri Krishna in is starting to write this book. English Defining the objective Ishvara and Matter. Three objects are noticed in this world. The names of these three substances are matter conscious entities and Ishvara the controller or the supreme Lord. Lord, by chance, by chance, two birds have made a nest together in the same tree. The two birds are friends and are of a similar nature. 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 call all as matters all those substances without willpower, such as earth, rock, water, fire, air, sky, forest, grain, cloth, body and so on. Humans, animals, insects and reptiles are conscious entities. These have the power of judgment and willpower. The similar type of judgment power present in humans is not present in any other conscious entities. For this reason, of all entities that are with consciousness and without consciousness, some people call humans the king.
Matter and the entities which I will.
So Bhakti Vinod Thakur is describing about matter and entities which have willpower.
Matter includes things like earth, water, earth, water, earth, rock, water, fire, air.
So matter includes earth, rock, water, fire and other things which are inert.
On out of the body. The body itself is another one has.
A body and the body itself is inert.
But only the living entities have consciousness.
Only living entities have consciousness.
Are all living entities a lot of the animals and reptiles. But human beings are not.
Above animals and reptiles.
So the human beings have a greater judgment power than the other creatures.
Okay, are the human beings and the human beings have a greater judgment than the other entities.
So they are considering human beings as the best of all the entities.
They are considering the human being as the best of all the living entities.
Of course, some of the traditions.
Think.
Of the illness of overhead consciousness, free will, enjoy and sorrow.
So of course, so some tradition they consider the animals, they have willpower, they have things to enjoy. But they consider that they don't have soul.
And other creature art, not our soul. And that gives them the free will.
And Lord Chaitanya thought that every entities have atma or soul and that gives them the free will.
The human being, since they have a greater world war, they are subject to the law of karma.
Since the human beings have greater willpower, they are subjected to the laws of karma.
As long as you thought it states that the lies funded. He sees all the living entities.
So the Bhagavad Gita says a pundit see all the living entities having life and having a spirit soul. So these differences are there by other in some traditions.
But they consider like humans kings all the way under it.
I didn't get you good manage. I didn't get you the. I didn't get the last line. 8. Expanding his own potency, Mayashakti created innumerable species of life to house the conditioned souls. Yet by creating the forms of trees, reptiles, animals, birds, snakes and so on, the Lord was not satisfied within his heart when he created human life which offers the conditioned soul sufficient intelligence to perceive the absolute truth and became pleased. Yeah.
So only here it states that the Lord he creates all the living entities.
See, all the scriptures states that Lord he creates all the living entities.
But not being set aside. He later created a human being.
But not being satisfied, he created the human beings.
I gave them the power to understand and perceive the absolute truth.
And give them the power to understand and perceive the absolute truth.
So Ashra said that human beings have got a rigorous thought. So they swash.
Srila Prabhupada said that human beings has got great responsibility.
Because they can perceive, they can understand the absolute truth.
Because they can perceive they can understand the absolute truth.
Most human beings are not trying to perceive the absolute truth.
But most human beings are not trying to perceive the absolute truth.
So they consider that they're like walking animals.
So they are considered like walking animals.
They're not utilizing their full capacity.
They are not utilizing their full capacity.
So utilize it fully. Places China to realize to serve the absolute truth.
To utilize it fully, they should try to realize and serve the absolute truth.
And thus they can become Fully fully satisfied.
And thus they can become fully fully satisfied.
You are very.
Do you agree?
How many agree?
How many agree?
Like Rao, he was saying we have lectures, all human beings are present.
So like Prabhupada said, like when we have lectures, all human beings are present. Only human beings are present.
Cats, dogs.
We don't have cats, dogs. They don't stay present because it's over their head. It's over their head.
We do have human beings but we.
Do have human beings.
So that's what human beings have got a special.
So therefore human beings have got a special capacity. Ishvara, the Supreme Lord is the creator of all conscious and unconscious substance. We cannot see him because he does not have a material. He is Hare Krishna. He is of complete form and pure consciousness. He is our creator, maintainer and controller.
I think they'll ask this question where is God? I want to see God.
People would ask this question where is God? I want to see God. But here it says that we can't see him because he has no material body, his pure consciousness, his pure consciousness.
We are all conscious entities within our material bodies.
We are all conscious entities within our material body.
Whatever we desire, we go there, take our next birth.
Whatever we desire, we go there and take our next birth.
Now our next birth of the human birth. If our desires our human nature, our.
Birth would be a human birth in next next birth. If our desires are human in nature.
If it desires these are filled by animals then.
If our desires fits an animal body then we would get an animal body.
He'll die for the spiritual world.
So if we desire to know Krishna and go back to the spiritual world, then we'll go back to the spiritual world in our next birth. Next so quote From Srimad Bhagavata 11 3:35 the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the cause of creation, maintenance and destruction of this universe. Yet he has no prior cause. He pervades the various states of 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, air 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 God hate to be the Supreme. By his will we prosper. By his will we meet with destruction. And he eternally reigns in the Vaikuntha Dharma as the personality of Godhead. He is the King of all Kings. All the activities of the worlds are happening by his will.
There's spiritual World and material world.
So there is spiritual world and material world.
Spiritual world upon us.
The spiritual world is known as vaikunthadham, where there is no death, where there is no anxiety. But if you want to go there, Sam. So there's a verse in the Gita which states, if you know the birth and activities of the Lord as transcendental, you'll go back to the spiritual world and never take birth again. So people should study the Bhagavad Gita and the Bhagavatam and should understand the material and the spiritual world.
Until the world has one occupant of the rooti or 1/3 and the fourth of the energy of the Lord.
So the material world is eka pada viputi. One fourth of the total energy of the Lord.
I will stretch the world.
And the spiritual world is 3 patiputi.
Are 3, 4.
Energy are 3 fourths of the Lord's energy.
It is.
It is spiritual and never winds up. So we are living in the Ekapada Vibhuti.
The souls which are not bound up by the material energy and the souls.
Which are not bound up by the material energy and the ones in the three part Vibhuti, they are considered as liberated. All right. You lead the Bengali. Okay. Now. Okay. Ata Isharo Pache Brahmashangita. Spiritual form of the supreme personality of Godhead. All substances have a particular form. Therefore the supreme personality of Godhead also has a form. This is an interesting point.
We have forms.
We have forms.
God is not Lakshyana.
God is not less than us. He has to have a form.
He didn't have a form.
If we didn't have a form, it will be less.
It's not the fact.
It's not the fact.
He has a form. We have a form.
He has a form. We have a form. His form is spiritual. Our form at the present time is mundane.
The ATMA is one kit of the hair divided into 10,000.
So the ATMA is the tip of hair divided into 10,000. So it's very small.
But it.
But it has immense power. Okay. I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord whose transcendental form is full of bliss, truth, substantiality and thus full of the most dazzling splendor. Each of the blimps of that transcendental figure possesses in himself the full fledged function of all the organs and eternally sees, maintains and manifests the infinite universes, both spiritual and mundane.
I saw. Each part of the body has a full capacity to see. Here now it's having all the so.
Each function, each organs of his body has the full capacity to see, hear and perform all the other functions of the other organs of the body.
Cognitive taste paralysis.
I can't hear. I can't hear.
How I go.
I can hear, but I can't understand. Please forgive me.
Sorry.
He didn't understand. Last. Can you please.
I'm saying that each sense is already body and do all the activities of any other part.
So each sense of his body can do the activities of the activities of the other parts.
He can see you.
If he holds his little finger. He can see you.
He gonna eat just by looking.
He can eat just by looking if you offer burger. So if you offer burger to him, you just have to look and it's offer.
That is the wonderful power of Krishna.
That's the wonderful power of Krishna. No, he didn't eat this. The very form of material subjects is material. The form of conscious substances is conscious spiritual. We are certainly conscious substance. But we have a material body. Thus our spiritual form has become hidden within the material form. The supreme personality of God. Hate is pure consciousness or spirit. Therefore he has no other form except his spiritual form. That spiritual form is his form. We can see that form only within our pure spiritual eyes. We can see with devotional eye.
Bhakti Naka is describing a truth.
So Bhakti Vinathakur so Bhakti Vinath Thakur is describing the truth very systematically.
We have a spiritual body.
We have a spiritual body. We have a spiritual form. But that is covered up by our material body.
Krishna, Supreme God form is completely spiritual.
Krishna, the supreme personality of God Hates form is completely spiritual.
He is not covered up by the material.
He is not covered up by the material body.
His form is his actual form.
His form is his actual form.
We can see that form if he has spiritual eyesight.
We can see the form if we have spiritual eyesight.
Not with his mundane eyes.
Not with his mundane eyes.
Where the secrets are eyes of love.
So you have to see Krishna with eyes of love. Brahma Samhita 5.38 Preman Jana Churyta Bhakti Vilochaneva I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord who Shyama Sundar Krishna himself with inconceivable innumerable attributes whom the pure devotees see in their hearts of hearts. With the eye of devotion pinched with the soil of love turns.
The eye of devotion turns with the self of love.
The eye of devotion tinged with the self of love.
I would like who has a self of love.
You have Guru Maharaj who have that Self of love. You can put it on your eyes.
How much it cost?
How much it would cost? Can we buy it in the grocery? In the shop?
This pure love, that's the real thing we should be discussing in this.
So this pure love, that's the real thing that we should be discussing in this Gorpurnima festival.
We will all need a self of love.
We all need the self of love.
I can see the Lord with affection.
So to see the we need to see the see the Lord with loving. With affection. For that we need a loving eye.
I want to see the Lord with mundane eyes. How? You cannot do that if you want.
To see the Lord with mundane eyes. We cannot do that.
You have to see him with spiritual eyes.
You have to see him with spiritual eye.
Eyesight. With the salve of love.
The eyes side with the salve of.
Love.
Tinged with the salve. We cannot see the spiritual form with material eyes.
Simple thing.
Simple thing.
We all need to awaken our spiritual eyes.
So we all need to awaken our spiritual eyes.
Okay.
Okay. We'll continue tomorrow.

Who have the self you have. So the GBC meeting starts tomorrow. I'll see if they have the cell.
Okay.
Thank you. Okay. Guru Maharaj, it's a question from your spiritual daughter.
Yeah.
Go Rangi Gandharvika. Hare Krish. Oh, she's there. She's there. She's waving at you. Okay. Hare Krishna Guru Bharat arc.
Dev, they said they need a children.
Minister today in the ark, Dev, they said that they need a children ministry.
Children'S section.
So we want to have a children's section.
They don't pay me attention. They want a children minister, so they.
Want a children minister.
You may be a minister, so you.
May be a minister. Who knows? Yeah. Women power. Hare Krishna. Guru Maharaj, please accept my respectful obeisances. So her question is this. Do we have an eternal relationship in one of the five primary rasa, primary Stai Bhava with Mah Prabhu, or do we have the same relationship with Krishna and Mahaprabhu?
We have such a relationship with Krishna, you see.
We have such relationship with Krishna.
A Lord Chaitanya, he also has a conjugal relationship.
Lord Caitanya, he also has the conjugal relationship.
Our relationship with Gauranga may be different because he is in the world of devotees.
Our relationship with Gauranga may be different because. Because he's in the mood of a devotee.
One time and then Krishna another time.
So our relationship with Gauranga might be one kind and our relationship with Krishna may be another kind. So with Lord Gauranga we are assisting him or we are his friend.
And with Krishna could be another relationship.
And with Krishna it could be another relationship, a friend, a parent or a slower.
Okay, yeah.
