Guru Maharaj's message is your the following is a Sri Chaitanya Shikshamita class given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on December 11, 2024 in Sri Ramayapur, India.

We are reading from Shri Chaitanya Shikshamrita by Srila Bhakti Nod Thakur. We are in the section Shakti Gatha Bhagavat Anubhava Realization related to the energy of Bhagavan Potency of Bhagavan is inconceivable by realization related to the potency of Bhagavan all doubts of the living entity are dispelled. The potency of Bhagavan is inconceivable beyond argument and logic and is immeasurable. Srivad Bhagavatam 3639 Ato Bhagavato Maya Mahi na Mahinam Apimohini yat swayam Chatma Vardamatma Naveda Kim utta Pare the wonderful potency of the supreme personality of Godhead is bewildering even to the jugglers. That potency is unknown even to the self sufficient Lord so it is certainly unknown to.

So today is the appearance.

Of the Bhagavad Gita so today is the appearance of the Bhagavad Gita and today we are reading about Shakti Gata Bhagavad Anubhava that the Lord has unlimited potencies. So much so that even he doesn't know himself how many potencies he has. How many potencies he has.

A first policy.

That a number of ekadasi a number of ekadasis before in one of the ekadasis it was explained to me where all the ekadasis came from.

He and he was.

There was a demon, Mura demon and he was very powerful.

God followed him for us for years because are you loving it?

For a thousand celestial years he was fighting with demons, fighting with that demon Mora demon and he felt tired. He took rest so he went into a cave and he took rest.

I didn't follow him.

Murad demon followed him saying.

How easy to kill him.

He's asleep and he was thinking now it is very easy to kill him. He is asleep. Suddenly from him rose one of his potencies, a young girl and she had various ornaments weapons young girl and she had various weapons and.

Attacked her.

So the Murad demon Attacked her.

She was so fast. She was so powerful. And she just kept my head so.

But she was so fast. And you're so bawvel.

Shh.

That what you. She cut off head. Cut off the head. So then she cut off the head of the demon.

So how? What wished? How? King answers. Saw the world.

So when Lord Vishnu came to consciousness, he saw the Mura demon lying dead. And he saw that this lady with the various weapons was offering obeisances to the Lord. So he asked what happened to this demon?

She said, I killed him.

She said, I killed him.

Who are you?

Who are you? She said, I want you to marry me.

No. Never marry me. Name.

I want you to name me.

Okay.

I am one of your potencies. So just like it says here. This is Leela or something that he says he doesn't know how many potencies he has. Die.

Yes. I have a human worship.

So she asked that she be given a name and that she can be worshipped. Something like that. So Vishnu said that your name would be ekadashi. So every 11th day would be a special observance day for me. So today is also Ekadashi. Today Srikadashi is the day where Bhagavad Gita was spoken. Moksha Day Kadashi. Somehow on this day I was able to bring out a purport about the Lord's inconceivable potency. Srivad Bhagavatam 8328 Shakti Trayal Yakila Dhi Gunaya Prapanna Palaya Duranta Shaktay Kat Indriyanam Anavapyavartamane. My Lord, you are the controller of full formidable strength. In three kinds of energy. You appear as the reservoir of all sense, pleasure and the protector of the surrendered souls. You possess unlimited energy. But you are unapproachable by those who are unable to control their senses. I offer my respectful obeisances to unto you again and again. This potency is essentially identical to Lord's form but manifests differently in action. No matter how far human intellect goes, it cannot conclude anything about this supreme power. If one tries, they will become hopeless. Being inactive like an animal. This supreme power is the shelter and regulator of all opposite qualities. Will and indifference. Vishesha. Distinct variety and nirvishesha without variegatedness. Localized presence and omnipresence. Detachment and attachment. Inactivity and activity. Logic and free will. Regulation and freedom. Mastery and servitude. Omniscience and knowledge gathering. Limited form and immeasurability. All pervading success and childlike efforts. All such opposite qualities find harmony in this power. Through the influence of the supreme Power, the divine form, the pastimes and the paraphernalia of the Lord are eternally manifest. Don't try to figure this out. It says that if you try that you will become inactive, stunned.

How.

Hard.

Is he opposite all his voice?

So the Lord he is opposite. All his qualities are opposite.

Omnise presence.

He has localized presence, omnipresence everywhere. And he is also omnipresent. He is everywhere. Try to figure that out. Don't try to figure that out. So servitude, omniscience and knowledge gathering, limited form and immeasurability. There are unlimited or koti universes, unlimited Koti universes.

All the universes and he.

Is in all the universes at the same time he can be present before you. So this is the wonderful form of Krishna. Shrimad Bhagavatam 2, 9, 27 and 28 Yathatva Maya Yogi and please inform me how you by your own self manifest different energies for annihilation, generation, acceptance and maintenance by combination and permutation. O Master of all energies, please tell me philosophically all about them. You play like a spider that covers itself by its own energy and your determination is infallible. Through the influence of this Shakti's jiva, an infinite number of liberated and conditioned living entities exist in eternal spiritual time. By the influence of that power's Maya, an infinite material world has manifested as a temporary abode for conditioned living entities. In the aspect of that influence known as sandhini, the spiritual realms, time, place, substance and other paraphernalia have emerged. In the samvit aspect, emotions, knowledge and relationships spread and manifest the diverse nature of each realm. In the Hladini aspect, all kinds of acts of relishing the spiritual happiness suitable for the divine realms are being performed. In brief, it must be understood that the identity of Bhagavan is manifested solely through his potency. We see Krishna, the supreme personality of Godhead, as a person, but he possesses other.

Potencies.

But he possesses unlimited potencies and.

His policies are destroyed.

His power and these potencies display his power. From the Vishnu Purana 11269 Haladini, Sandini, Samvit, Twai, Eka, Sarva, Samstitao, Laad, Thapakari, Mishra, Tvarjite. O Lord, you are the support of everything. The three attributes, Cladini, sandini and Samvit exist in you as one spiritual energy. When the material modes which cause happiness, misery and mixtures of the two do not exist in you for you have no material qualities. That is another truth that Krishna is completely spiritual, so.

His holidays. Another version is pray God is.

So his. So his qualities are manifested through these potencies unlimitedly. Ladini, Sandini and Sam.

Interesting now how real holy resist Krishna.

What is interesting to note is that no material quality exists in Krishna.

He has no help.

Because he has no material quality. Next is Kriya Gatha Bhagavan Anubhava Realization related to the activities of Bhagavan Realization related to the activities of Bhagavan will be described in the analysis of Rasa in the seventh shower. No elaboration is done about it in this place. Next is Swanubhava. So the seventh shower is going to be more pastimes of the Lord. Swanubhav Self Realization Self realization is the second aspect of pure knowledge. Understanding of one's own nature is called Svanubhava. What is the true nature of the living entity? Individuals influenced by different natures provide different answers to this question. Those who live in unethical or outcast lives say that through the combination of natural elements, the human body and the mechanisms within it are produced. When these mechanisms operate, a phase of knowledge arises and the human body, with its intricate mechanisms possessing that knowledge, is the living entity. According to them, the soul does not exist after the disintegration of the body and animals cannot be considered living entities. Those who live ethical lives answer similarly, but they add that the living entity is morally inclined. They believe that morality distinguishes humans from animals. Those who uphold an imagined theistic morality also says similarly, with the addition that belief in a hypothetical God is necessary for societal well being and that individuals should live under this belief. Real theistic moralists state that God creates the soul in the mother's womb and through duty performance, the soul attains the ability to enjoy heavenly pleasures. They believe sinful actions lead to hell. However, just as they are unaware of the soul's state before birth, they are also unclear about the afterlife. Therefore, they cannot fully understand the relationship between the soul and the material world.

So this has different stages of advancement.

So this shows the different stages of advancement. No Complete not complete.

It'S hard to figure out what level one person has happened.

So you can figure out what level a person is at.

Most Honorable person, please.

The most unethical person believes that everything is created by matter. Better than that is when one has a theoretical idea of God, and better than that is when one has a real idea of God but they don't know where they were before birth and where they go after leaving this body.

Krishna Consciousness.

In Ka Consciousness we have all the answers to all these questions. King Vena replied, you are not at all experienced. It is very much regrettable that you are maintaining something which is not religious and are accepting it as religious. Indeed, I think you are giving up your real husband who maintains you and are searching after some parable to worship those who out of gross ignorance do not worship the King who is actually the supreme personality of Godhead experience happiness neither in this world nor in the world after death. You are so much devoted to the demigods, but who are they indeed? Your affection for these demigods is exactly like the affection of an unchaste woman who neglects her married life and gives all attention to her paramount Lord Vishnu, Lord Brahma, Lord Shiva, Lord Indra, Vayu, the Master of Air, Yama, the Superintendent of Death, the Sun God, the Director of Rainfall, Kuvera, the Treasurer, the Moon God, the predominating deity of the Earth, Agni, the Fire God, Varuna, the Lord of Waters and all others who are great and competent to bestow benedictions or to curse all abide in the body of the King. For this reason the King is known as the reservoir of all demigods who are simply parts and parcels of the King's body. King Vena continued, for this reason, O Brahmanas, you should abandon your envy of me and by your ritualistic activities you should worship me and offer me all paraphernalia. If you are intelligent, you should know that there is no personality superior to me who can accept the first oblations of all sacrifices. So King Vena was a demon.

He was preaching to the subjects in body as a renal Lord.

He was preaching to his subjects that his body was the supreme abode.

Brahmans cursed unto life.

As a result, the Brahmins cursed him to die. However, King Raisa and they created a proper king to replace him. So they churned his body and from his body came different beings. And finally incarnation of the Lord.

And.

Prithu Maharaj create a Krishna conscious society. So there is a whole section in the Bhagavatam about Prithu Maharaj and how he made the earth very cooperative.

How today is.

So Today is the appearance of Bhagavad Gita. Last night I spoke at the Pandel Srila Prabhupada said that if you don't know Bhagavad Gita, you cannot preach.

Bhagav.

So Bhagavad Gita is very important for the devotees to study.

10 times.

Prabhupada said that I had to study Bhagavad Gita 10 times before he could give me initiation.

10.

Initiation. Of course I studied.

After initiation of course I studied Bhagavad Gita many times. He got me to take an exam on the Bhagavad Gita and I got the Bhakti Shastri degree. So how merciful Krishna is that he gave time to produce the Bhagavad Gita. So now we have the Bhagavad Gita.

Has all this millions of Gitas and.

BBT has published some millions of Bhagavad Gitas. So I hope that all the devotees are distributing the Bhagavad Gita and also reading it. Krishna Madirastu.
