Hariyom Tatsa Hariyom. That's it. Hare Krishna Dear devotees, today we will continue with the reading from Sri Caitanya shiksharamrata. I think 6th shower 6.2 analysis of prema number 9 prema love of God. When Baba attains possessiveness of Krishna, it becomes Prema. This is the permanent ecstasy suitable for Rasa practicing. Devotees should always observe their own state. They should not reflect on how they were yesterday. They should reflect on how they were yesterday and how they have improved today. After observing for a few days, they see no progress according to the gradual process. Then they should consider that some offense has occurred. They should identify and avoid this offence and rectify the damage through saintly association. They should constantly practice and pray to Ka to avoid repeating the offense and be vigilant. Those who do not pay attention to their casual progress may experience significant delays in advancement due to unnoticed obstacles. Therefore, practitioners be especially cautious in this matter. So when we notice how we are progressing.

Achieve prema.

Then we can achieve prema quickly.

Different answer roles.

But.

Our hands stop our progress.

But different obstacles like offenses may stop our progress.

So is the progress.

So we should make notice whether we are making advancement or not. If you are making advancement or not.

How we progress the original spheres and we have 3Mr. Gradual progress is answered.

So how we are progressing in devotional service or not. We have to see how our devotional service is advancing. But if you are not making advancement then you should see that and do a needful.

Not really progressing.

Like if you're making advancement but not really progressing.

And there's a noble stop.

And then we should notice so then we should notice that and somehow make up for any mistakes. So we should be very careful with this matter.

Here ourselves coming apart of.

So the obstacles come in the form of offenses. Then pray to Krishna to avert offenses.

Advance day by day and also see.

The advancement day by day. So Bhaktiyanath Thakur is showing step by step advancement and.

One does this step by step gradual process.

Because it's about prayer. We could read.

He was hand lancers under a tree. And the Patan soldiers thought he was proud. That is.

So Lord Chaitanya was unconscious under a tree. And the Patan soldiers they thought that he was robbed by his associates. How.

Bengali soldiers shaking.

The Bengali associates were shaking.

Ground. He was saying I got 200 soldiers.

So the Rajput soldiers were saying I got 200 soldiers. What was the last part? Will come and attack you all. Will come and attack you all.

So Lord Chaitanya done.

And then Lord Chaitanya came conscious.

So there was one peer a saintly.

Muslim in the K group And.

Lord.

Chaitanya.

And then Lord Chaitanya started talking to him.

Supreme personality.

He believed that the supreme personality of God had is impersonal.

And Lord Jajanna Ruhl and Lord Chaitanya defeated him Allah. Hello Prince son of the king. He was there.

And then there was a prince the son of the king. He was there.

I don't know how study of scripture.

And he said these Muslims they don't know how to study the scriptures. The more you get along with the scriptures the more in Christ the subject is.

So he said he demonstrated how the Quran at the end says that Allah Elizabeth.

He said that how the Quran says that. How the Quran says at the end that Allah Isabela.

He gave the context different verses for that.

And he gave different contacts different verses for that. And people were amazed to Hear Lord Jacob 8:30.

I'm not had this.

In the Hadith the Quran was made by Muhammad. May peace upon him is.

Said it.

More hardly in the Quran is considered more authoritative.

In the Hadith says that Muhammad Israel, Iran again by the waters.

So in the Hadith it says that Muhammad peace be upon him. He came for the morning prayers.

Fell asleep in his arm.

He fell asleep reading the Quran. They looked on his shoulder There was a hand of halal.

In the spirit Books, all his hands are revealed.

So like this, in sacred books all these things are revealed. The prophet Muhammad, peace be on him, he had various realizations.

He did all these realizations and he.

Gave all these realizations.

Apparently there are many verses that.

Apparently there are many persons. State that Allah is impersonal but that stone gradually.

The Patans are known as Patan Vaishnavas.

So the Patans are known as Patan Vaishnavas.

And they are giving Vaishnavas on the line of regime of Chajangara.

They all became Vaishnavas by the preaching of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Just a question. Which one? The first or seconds? Both are same. Okay. This is a question from Dinanath Sri Krishna Das from Sydney, Australia. Hare Krishna. Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my respectful obeisances onto your lotus feet. As you mentioned in your previous class about idolatry and deity worship, lot of people, they have misconception. Both idolatry and deity worship is identical. And they think that if they follow idolatry process they achieve the same highest perfection. So I just want you to clarify the difference between them. It's like instructing. I want you to.

Installation is something that was handed down by.

Sir, the deity installation is a procedure which was handed down by Prince.

Pati who is the guru of the Devas.

Who is the guru of the Devas?

That means tall Adidi.

We install the deity, we chant the mantras. We do the rituals and ceremony as it was handed down by Brihaspati.

Yeah, really strong. Very wondrous.

And so the deities are installed with these mantras and they are seeing the deities.

And.

They have the right experience of a deity.

When they are seeing the deities, they have the direct experience of the deity.

Idol is something I struggle.

Idol is something that you speculate.

And this deity is something that's made as a form of Krishna.

So this deity is something which is made as a form of Krishna. And there are different Adivasas and ceremonies.

These are very sacred rituals.

So these are very sacred rituals.

And all of the Lord is however.

So the devotees are able to call the deities into these material things. Okay. Thank you Guru Maharaj for a wonderful lecture. Please bless all of them. Guru Maharaj, Please bless. Blessings.
