Hare Krishna Dear devotees, today we will continue with the reading from Sri Chaitanya Shikshamita Vaishna Sachitananda Bhakti. So we're continuing with the sixth stream analysis of Prema as mentioned in bhakti rasamitha sindhu1 4 17. This ever fresh day might arises in the heart of a person who is very fortunate. That person's behavior is very difficult to comprehend even for those knowledgeable in scriptures. Prabhupada's translation of that verse. Only the most fortunate persons can achieve such success in life. Those who are simply academic students of the very scriptures cannot appreciate how such a development takes place.
Arises in the heart.
So how the Prema arises in one's heart it's very difficult to understand.
And even a person's behavior is the whole thing.
Even that person's behavior is very difficult to understand. Even if one was Shastra.
Achieving grandma is among the most fortunate people.
Prabhupada said achieving Kaema is only for the most fortunate people.
Those who studied all the Vedas was not a qualification.
Those who study all the Vedas, that's not a qualification.
Have we heard before my righteousness Bhakti Yoga?
Actually, as we have heard before by practicing Bhakti Yoga or by having special mercy, all by having a special mercy. So.
What is something that we should all aspire for?
But that's something that we should all aspire for. All inauspiciousness is dispelled. There is no higher attainment for the Jiva of swords than Prema Moksha. Liberation is a small and momentary aspect in comparison to Prema. Among the many by products of Prema Moksha is one resolved. If while having connection with matter Prema arises, that material connection is no longer perceived perceived. The life of a devotee with Prema is entirely devoid of material association and full of Krishna. Like a low world becomes concealed concealed upon the rise of the sun. Similarly with the rules and regulations of Sadhana, Bhakti is concealed upon the rise of Prema. In the presence of Prema Bhakta, even the mundane world appears as Vaikunta, the spiritual world. So by pray not one one Is fully focused on Krishna again we start tomorrow. This chapter is finished. We don't have the next part. We don't have the. Do you have the document? Okay, Guru Mach, go on speaking. Meanwhile you will find out.
So all the secretaries look tired, feel rest. Then I rested and I said all the you attend in the class conspiracy. Hello. He said hello. Where were you such me?
I didn't say anything.
How do you like this?
How many of you like to see? Even the material world is very quick. You know what a blue ball is Nighttime they emit lights because of the pool.
I'm a very bad result.
In the daytime you don't see them. At night is still night you see them.
I said the kind of bird that has elements of the nest downwards.
Actually there's kind of bird they have the nest looking facing downwards.
The hush marble is.
So they catch this gloval and stick them in the stick their head in the mud on the nest.
Lighting in the nest.
The nest provides lighting in the nest. That provides lighting in the nest.
Where is that? Light bulbs.
So these things we are very advanced because we have light bulbs.
Are the horns light bulbs Birds Metaglobals.
Are the right bulbs for the birds. So they don't get any grammar food. Guru Maraj, you have Bhagavadan class tomorrow morning.
Two questions.
If there's any question please post it on YouTube or Facebook or one of the present Physically there's a question in which state we will see this world as Vaikuntha Prema. That's the easy one.
Presence of every Bhakti. Even though mundane world of yours has by Kunta spiritual.
In the presence of Prema bhakti even the mundane world appears as welcome to the spiritual world.
Thank you.
Can someone obtain Prema or is Prema is only distorted by the mercy of the Lord. He asks someone can attain Prema or it's been bestowed upon someone. Is Prema is a Sadhya Is Prema is Sadhya or be given to somebody it's attainable or distorted. It's of two kinds.
Of so the whole stage.
So those who practice Sadhana bhakti graduate to the Ruchi Bhava stage.
Original source. He arises through the parasites.
Then by one who practices that stage he rises to Prabhupada stage. If someone is not performing Sadhana bhakti but they are showing the signs of Prema that is called prasad of the Prema. Prema received by the prasad at the mercy of the Lord.
