At.
The time of at that time the Sadhaka in his Bhakti Sadhana abandoning Niyamagraha abundance some rules and accepts some prohibitions according to qualification as mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam 11.20.26 and I quote. It is firmly declared. It is firmly declared. The steady adherence of transcendentalists to their respective spiritual position constitutes real piety. And that scene occurs when a Transcendental Transcendentalist neglects his own prescribing. One who adopts the standard of piety and sin sincerely desiring to give it up on past association with vacation is able to subdue materialistic activities which are by nature impure. End of quote.
That's it.
Good morning.
Then different topic starts.
The next subtopic starts regarding he has made a statement at the time of at the time Sadhaka and his Bhakti Sadhana abandoning n bound some rules and accept some prohibitions according to his qualification he mentions and he quotes this verse from SH. After that he goes to the next sub topic. He says that those who adhere steady adherence of transcendental spiritual position constitute real piety and scene occurs when transcendentalist neglects this discovery. One who adopts this standard of piety and sin sincerely desire to give up all past association with gratification able to subdue materialistic activities which are by nature impure. So we should focus our desires on on the spiritual standard.
All desire harvest materials and lose all.
Desires for the material goals.
Standard of purity. Our piety is wanting to serve the Lord.
Real standard of purity or piety is wanting to serve the Lord.
Desire or what loses or tastes or.
By that type of desire or activity one loses peace for self gratification.
Okay.
64 limbs of Sadhana Bhakti the description of Sadhana Bhakti is found in the words of the Lord, namely.
You want that one?
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait just a second. Yeah, so 64L of Silent. I'll read 5, then you can comment. Then I read the next 5, then you can comment. Tank Group has listed the 64 Angas of Sadhana Gupti.
On the path of regulated devotional surveys.
One must observe the following items. First, one must accept a bona fide spiritual master. So that's very clear. One has to find a body and take his instruction. What to do? Second, one must accept initiation from him. One must serve.
To do service.
So we should try to do service to the Spiritual master, this is all right. This is a very important thing. One must receive instruction from the spiritual master and make inquiries in order to learn the Gods.
Advised. Every time I saw Baba, I should say holding myself Allah.
So every time when I see Shiva Prabhupada, I should say something humbling and then I should glorify him. And then what was the last one?
Ask.
And ask for some mercy, some benediction.
Number five.
Number five.
One must follow in the footsteps of the previous Acharyas and follow the directions given by the spiritual master. So our activities are guided by our.
Acharyas.
And previous Acharyas.
Practice Krishna consciousness. Everything we think authorized by our girl or by his.
So in this way. So in this way our activity should be Krishna conscious. And we should always think is this is authorized by our Guru, our previous acharyas and astras.
6.
One should be to give up everything from Krishna's satisfaction. And one should also accept everything for Krishna's satisfaction.
Rules.
So if there's something which you are very attached to, which is against Krishna's.
Principle.
For Krishna, we should be able to reset Krishna is not against. You can be a Brahmachari, you can be a Grahasta, can be a Varna Pestha or a Sannyas. But if there's some aspect like breaking the four principles and that would give.
Up.
For pleasing Krishna. Similarly you have to chant 16 rounds.
For the blessed all Krishna.
We accept things blessings of Krishna. One must leave. One must live in a place where Krishna is present. A city like Vrindavan or Mathura or Krishna's temple.
My person.
Navdam is a place where Krishna is present.
Also Krishna is present in the temple.
Also Krishna is present in the temple. So we live here. 8. One should acquire a livelihood that is just sufficient to keep the body and soul together.
Everyone has a job.
So in the present world everyone has a job. Intellectual, professors, military, government officers, businessmen, workers.
Because swar is today's world is absolutely.
It's not because someone receives a salary in this material world is naturally Ashudra. So because we do a career just to make lots of money, that's not something we are meant to do. We need enough keep our body and soul together. One must fast on Ekadashi day. One should worship Dati d di trees, banyan trees, cows, Brahmanas and devotees of Lord Vishnu. See, we respect things that are dear to Krishna always.
All these things.
And devotees and all these things are dear to Krishna.
11.
One should avoid offenses against devotional service and the holy name.
Here are the 10 offenses.
Hare Krishna Hear the offenses. 10 offenses against the Holy Name during the time of initiation. The 12th item is to give up.
The country of non devotees.
Yes, sins and the non devotees, they're not like the talk about.
Devotees.
They don't like to talk about Krishna but the devotees they like to talk about devotional service.
13.
One should not accept an unlimited number of desires.
I was ordered by Baba Sri disciples.
I was ordered by Srila Prabhupada to accept the disciples. Sometimes I have to suffer. My 50,000 is nothing.
Number 14. One should not partially study many scriptures just to.
Just to be able to give references and explain explanations Just to code against others.
Okay? Okay. 15.
The devotee should treat loss and gain equally. This is the mentality for devotee. Even if he wins some, some he's.
He's equal in all circumstance. Number 16. The devotees should not be overwhelmed.
Our parents, our loved ones, you know, sooner or later.
So as you all know, we are all going to lose our parents loved ones sooner or later. But we should not be overcome by temptation and forget Krishna. Okay? Number 17. The devotee should not worship demigods nor should be. Nor should he distracts them.
Demigods are usually Sagam devotees.
The demigods are usually Sakam devotees.
In any case, demigod the gods are devoted.
In any case, demigods are devotees.
Why would they care? How material benefits.
They can give some material benefits.
So you don't particularly want anything material.
So we don't particularly want anything material.
We don't also.
We don't disrespect them. Okay. Similarly, the devotees should not study or criticize other scriptures like we have Gita, bhagavatam, Chaitanya, Charitamrita, etc.
Is not particularly others scriptures.
You should not particularly study other scriptures. And to gain knowledge. Just to gain knowledge.
Of course. Island thinking I like to bring the Christians, Islamists and sorrow.
I was Christians, the Islamists etc.
And I was wondering how much does it say about God the Father?
So I was wondering in the Bible how much does it say about God the Father?
Because it seems to say a lot about Lord Jesus.
Because it seems they say a lot about Lord Jesus.
He said.
But he said to love God.
Does it say anything else about God?
Does it say anything else about God?
I wonder. What? What I was wondering.
I was wondering.
I may have someone else do the research.
May have someone else to do the research. Okay. Number 18. The devotee should not hear Lord Vishnu or his devotees blasphemed that's very clear. Number 19. Devotees should avoid reading or hearing newspapers, mundane books that contain stories. These stories of love affairs between men and women or subjects palatable to the senses.
Creatures. We need to know some durance as a preacher.
We should know about the disturbances heart and general.
We should be careful what we read.
But in general should be careful about what we read. This is the last for today, Gurmaraj. Neither by mind nor words should the disease cause anxiety to any living entity, regardless how insignificant he may be.
It is very interesting because then even insects we should avoid honest killing them.
See, we should be very careful even with insects, we should avoid unnecessarily killing them.
Prabhupada had dark blue velvet curtains.
Prabhupada had a dark blue velvet curtain.
It would attract mosquitoes.
That would attract mosquitoes. But Prabhupada, what did I didn't get.
That.
We can kill them.
Oh, Srila Prabhupada's servants sayla. Prabhupada's servants say that. Oh, we can kill them. We can murder them.
Prabhupada said what kinds of track Mercedes. I knew I killed it.
Pra said you put curtains that would attract mosquitoes. And now you want to kill them. So that's very offensive. Okay, pretty much. We'll end here today.
