Thank you all. Hare Krishna. Dear devotees, today we will continue with the sixth shower second stream analysis of Prema Bhakti. And the stream is entitled Analysis of the gradual rise of Prema. In the beginning there must be faith. When one becomes interested in associating with pure devotees. Thereafter one is initiated by the spiritual master and executes the regulatory principles under his orders. Thus one is freed from all unwanted habits and becomes firmly fixed in devotional circles. Thereafter one develops taste and attachment. This is the way of Sadhana Bhakti, the execution of devotional service according to the regulated principles. Gradually emotions intensify and finally there is an awakening of love. This is the gradual development of love of Godhead or the devotee interested in Krishna consciousness. Kai Namaya.
First down there are 10 commandments of worship.
So in Christianity 10 commandments. They say that the first commandment is to love God.
They don't tell you how to love.
Allah, but they don't tell you how you can love God.
I do all kind of single eyes. I wonder why they don't develop.
They do all kinds of sinful acts and they wonder why they don't develop love of God.
Here Vajrayotaga is saying the same thing again and again in their lives.
But here Bhakti Vilantagar, he's saying the same thing again and again in different ways.
Yes, saying the same thing. How ungradily awakens the love.
You are saying the same thing. How one gradually awaken the love for God. From faith associating with. So from faith associating with devotees. Getting initiated, getting rid of bad habits.
I studied lots of adversity.
Becoming steady in devotional practices, develop taste.
And attachment and finally love.
And finally love.
This is a very scientific gradual process.
So this is a very scientific gradual process.
This is a gradual.
This is the gradual development of Namakarpi.
For the devotee and the servant Krishna.
For the devotee interested in Ka consciousness.
How to develop this gradual process?
So you have to develop through this gradual process.
Affects Krishna consciousness. How it increases state essence in Krishna.
Consciousness always increases step by step.
It's not something that has all right necessary.
It's not something that happens overnight. Necessarily. It happens step by step, gradually. A life devoid of ethics is akin to that of animals. The sensory pleasures as a result of advancement of material science and arts driven through this type of intelligence is demonic. It's all transient and insignificant. Through the moral life is bound by ethics. Since it lacks the thought of God in the afterlife is suitable for the jiva. It's not suitable for the jiva in the theistic moral life. Even even though there is thorn of God and the life and the afterlife, the aim of such life is impure, limited and unsatisfying. The soul cannot remain bound to that. The life of an impersonalist is utterly disgraceful. Utterly disgraceful and discarded. The life of a devotee is the only reliable path.
So one takes a part of the process.
So if one takes a part of the process.
If you want to use modern science and life how to have a more enjoyable material life.
They want to take. They want to use the modern science how to enjoy the life more.
That's ashtray.
It's actually demonic. Insignificant.
No. And it's hard enough. I give up facility. We can learn how to be somehow.
So in Kalinga we are given this facility that we don't have to be a sannyasic.
Fault. Where may be some material happiness.
There may be some material happiness by being a grahesta.
However, not as our God and the other life not satisfying to the jiva.
It is not in the thought of God in the afterlife. It is not satisfying for the Jeevas.
All over the world.
We are facing the problem all over.
The world.
Is increasing.
We love by using our hygiene methods. I don't have sex.
Others.
By using modern scientific methods. One wants to have sex. Happiness with our children.
Polarizer is going down.
But the population is going down.
And the Alzheimer's it's not satisfied.
And ultimately it's not satisfying.
That's all they happiness people know.
But that's the only happiness that people know.
Lord consciousness. What are some of the religious who.
Are thinking about God saying God consciousness. Someone who's religious. Those who are not. Those who are not only thinking about God but they're praying to God. Give me this, give me that.
I saw how objection of life.
And the actual objective of life is impure and not unsatisfied.
Impersonalism perhaps. That's right.
Impersonalism. That's misguided. The life of a Krishna conscious community. That's the only appropriate path and reliable path for achiever.
This.
How would you explain this to who Ordinary persons. Two ordinary persons.
So that's why Adar Garden draws us.
That's why it's a gradual process of developing love of Godhead.
No Halios.
One can achieve, One can achieve the real spiritual happiness of love of Godhood. Notes. But where is this quoted from? I think this is a draw from the Bhagavad Gita. And when the Yogi engages himself with sincere endeavor in making further progress, being washed of all contamination, then ultimately achieving perfection, after many, many births of practice, he attains the supreme goal. The Yogi is greater than the ascetic, greater than the emperor, and greater than the flutifok. Therefore, O Arjuna, in all circumstances be a yogi. And of all Yogi, the one with great faith who always abides in Me, thinks of me within Himself, and renders transcendental loving service to me. He is the most intimately united with me in yoga and is the highest of all. That's my opinion. Quoted From Bhagavad Gita, chapter 6, verses 45 to 47.
Show us how Bhakriyala Ancestral Sushi.
So these verses of Bhagavad Gita show us how Bhakti Yoga unites us with Krishna in the best way.
We're doing yoga.
We're doing Yoga. So Yoga means reginated life. It's tough.
Yogi ultimately achieving correction. Out of many, many personal practice, Yogi ultimately achieving perfection.
After many, many births of practice, he.
Attains the great role.
He attains the supreme goal. A Yogi is greater than the ascetic, greater than the emperor's, and greater than the fruit is Oka. Therefore Arjuna, in all circumstances be a yogi. And of all yogis, the one with great faith who always abides in me, thinks of me within himself and renders transcendental loving service to me. He is the most intimately united with me in your in Yoga and is the highest of all. That's my opinion. Bhagavad Gita 6.4 5. 47.
Yoga Yoga and not just being able to sit in principal positions.
So Yoga is much as being able to sit in postural positions.
Yava is reminding me. Yava means to night.
So Yoga means to be, to unite Krishna. So Krishna is saying, of all the Yoga, the highest of all the Yoga is Bhakti Yoga.
We had the ladies a few days ago.
We had the Pushba vision and we had four dresses of the deity.
Mine was on the many ladies with some large eyes and glory practice.
So mainly it was ladies and some Brahmacharis. They were Engaged in this yoga practice.
It was undoubted about one.
Beautiful so our doing of yoga is completely different. Our doing of yoga is completely different. How do you like them? Krishna says I envy no one nor I am not partial to anyone, I am equal to all, but whoever renders service unto me devotion is a friend is in mine and I am also a friend of him. Even if one commits the most abominable action, if he is engaged in devotional service, he is to be considered saintly. Because he is properly situated in his determination, he quickly becomes righteous and attains lasting peace. All signs comfy. Declare it boldly that my devotee never perishes. O son of Pritha. Those who take shelter in me learn to be of low birth. Women, women, vaishers, merchants and shudras workers can attain the supreme destination. How much more this is so of the righteous Brahmanas, devotees and the saintly kings Therefore, having come to this temporary miserable world, engage in loving service unto me. Quotation From Bhagavad Gita 9.292 33 Sometimes reading course from Bhagavad Gita one after another. It's very interesting.
He is a friend.
How Krishna is saying Devotees, those who offer service unto Krishna is your friend.
It is in me.
It's in me.
I am also a friend.
I am also. I am also a friend to him or her.
Be fixed in determination to serve the Lord.
To be fixed in determination to serve the Lord Even if he commits a very despicable activity. What was the last advantage? He quickly becomes purified. Purified. Sorry.
And he tells Arjuna, my devotee Mother.
Arjun and he does Arjuna declare that my devotees never perish.
Amen. Krishna is spine and so other help.
I mean Krishna is saying it's so wonderful.
And 5000 year old and Gita was spoken in 5000 years ago when the Gita was spoken it was before the Kaliyura.
It was before the Kali Yuga and.
After the Krishna Lamb of lamb Kaliyuda.
After Krishna that time of year began.
So Harsha was speaking to Arjuna, who was a prince.
She was king me when Krishna was speaking to Arjuna, who was a prince, who was England.
Through us.
But Krishna says women, vaishns, workers should learn they can all attain the supreme destination. What to speak of? So Krishna is saying that we have come to this material world which is temporary and miserable.
We can make the breast filled with.
Red virgin so we can make the best use of the dead body.
Serve Krishna and we serve Krishna Sare Krishna.
Serving Krishna Means.
To go to Krishna.
We can continue tomorrow. Hello. Okay. A person who executes his occupational duty properly from 100 birth becomes qualified to occupy the post of Brahma. And if he becomes more qualified, he can approach Lord Shiva. A person who is directly salvage to Lord Krishna or Vishnu in underwire devotional service is immediately promoted to the spiritual planets. Lord Shiva and other demigods attained these planets after destruction of this material world. A quotation from Srimadam 424 29. So if you engage perfectly in your occupational duties, hundred words for hundred words, you can become Lord Brahma. So if you're a devotee, if you send it to Krishna.
Immediately.
Become an analogy body, you'll be immediately promoted to the spiritual planets.
How are you to the spiritual world?
Is someone worried? How do I get to the spiritual planet?
Khloe's time for the survival of your Israel.
If someone is worried about that. Krishna said if you surrender to Krishna and perform unilo devotional service then you immediately promote it to the spiritual life. You don't have to go and live in the Brahmaloka Tati Loka. The higher planets. The other higher planets, they can only get to the spiritual world. After the destruction of this material world.
He'Ll immediately be sent to the spiritual.
So Krishna is assuring you if you do an online devotional service then you'll be immediately attracted to the spiritual world. So why do you believe Chanda and Krishna today? Hare Krishna. Okay. Will you immediately go to Krishna's hands?
See, I was sleeping. I woke up. I was sleeping. Visual fabulous. I get in episodial vapor, part of my lips.
So you see. You see, I was sleeping. And then I woke up. And then I slept again. And then the physiotherapist came and he gave me a therapy for 45 minutes. Like that things continued.
Nobody wants to wake me up. As soon as I get up, start a routine.
So nobody wants to wake me up. As soon as I get up, I'll start with my routine. So I become very late. A couple of hours ago, one of Shantravar's disciples, his guest Sabhapati Prabhu left his body at Mayapur Community Hospital. He was suffering from cancer for some time and was in palliative care for a few months here in Mayapur. He left his body today in the holy land of Sri Mayapuram. Today is also the disappearance day of Ramachandra Kabiraj and the appearance day of Gopala Bhatta Goswami. So let's offer our prayers to his grace Abapati Prabhu's onward spiritual journey.
On this our sister's day, he left the material world.
Whilst all the devotees were chanting.
Oh, this is one of the benefits of being here in Myanmar.
So this is one of the benefits of being here in Myanmar. There are some questions from yesterday. Can I ask them? There are some questions from yesterday. So I'll ask them. If we can even see the material world as spiritual world non different from Vaikuntha, why would we be motivated to attain the Lord's abode? Is there any difference therefore between being in Prema and thus the world or in this world or in the spiritual world?
So I believe the Lord is one who engages in service.
That's why the devotees want to be engaged. Want to be engaged in the service.
They engage in service, devotional service and the alcoholic is not. It doesn't really matter where you are.
You. If you are engaged in devotional service and you are in love with Krishna then it really doesn't matter where you are.
In all of that universe Krishna or Lord Caitanya are having their gospel.
You go to that universe where Lord Krishna or Lord Caitanya having their pastimes.
Our Lord Chaitanya, Vajrandra Our Lord.
So can I go around the Panchitatva in the corner there's a picture of Lord Chaitanya Nithyananda Advaita surrounded by so many devotees.
This is wonderful.
And it's wonderful how.
A proud Lord in the spiritual world to be there with him.
If Prabhupada, if he's in the spiritual world, we'd like to be with him. But if he's doing some service in a spirit preaching mission in other planets.
And being there would be no different.
So being there would be no different.
See, some people are fixed on liberation.
You see, some people are fixed. I want liberation. So that is impersonal liberation. My current liberation. There is crystal o calibration. Some devotees are happy to worship Lakshmi and Narayana. But some devotees want to worship Krishna Madra Babraja.
Daughters. Even though there is such a long time father daughters on the planet in the material world.
Some devotees, even if Krishna comes down to some planets in the medieval world, she don't mind doing that. They are happy to be with Krishna no matter where he is. Okay, the next question.
Horrible.
It end here. Good marriage, it'll end here.
I don't know in hy.
Okay, there's a question. Is it necessary to go to Kumbh Mela for devotees who live in Da Sri Na Maipur Is it necessary to go to Kupamela for the devotees who live in Sri Namhpur.
I got Marty, Vijay Christian.
Vijay Bhagavad Swami and his team. They go to Gungamela to preach. Many people want to get some form of liberation.
So you're always my worries, colors.
So you get all these myalaries, pilgrims, other people.
They are expecting 400 million visitors.
They're expecting around 400 million visitors.
So they ran out of books.
So they ran out of books.
It's very harder to get more books. And there's a lot of.
It's hard to get more books in the Gungameda.
One day they had to be without books.
So one day they had to be without books.
Figured out how to get the books.
Then they figured out how to get the votes. That.
And as I said this morning, that always showed its 700,000 books.
As I said this morning, the goal is to distribute 700,000 liters.
But you have to avoid nagabas.
So you have to. But you have to avoid going to the Nava Babas. They carry some kind of weapon. I think it has. And they go and take the bath.
We were chanting Hare Krishna.
We were chanting Hare Krishna.
This is one of the smiles they started.
Smile. To smile and dance. So it's a good preaching availability.
People like Lord going out.
People, those who go to Kumbabela generally they are pious people. So they may think of impulse, liberation. I don't know what they want.
You have the opportunity.
So we have the opportunity to chant Hare Krishna and purify.
He agreed that whatever prescribed you all you will want.
So he agreed to whatever. Prasad, if you are, I'll give the money.
Will you unlearn the trial? We only will have nine. I know support.
So we hope you could get that kind of support in my world. Go ahead. Million people. You could call you Prashad. So do you notice I'm going there for Prasad Distribution. Book distribution. Keep that.
Our prime minister, he was glorified.
Prabhupada, our prime minister, he was glorified. He said that I went to different places. Every corner.
