Hare Krishna Dear devotees, today we will continue with the reading from Sri Chaitan. Okay. Sorry Guruj. Today we just have question and answers. So any questions please send it to she wants. Oh, I also have a question from Alhaji. Question from Sarva Priya Balai Prabhu. I have a question 1 regarding today's class which is on the 4th of March 2025. The question is what is the fastest way to cross the Ananta Nimritti level? How Guru's mercy can help in this regard? If you ask Guru Maharaj and let me know about what he has answered, it would be really great flavour for me. Ask your servant Sarva Priya Balay Das.
Lord Mantra the Guru after Gloria Guru Parana Krishna.
So we offer our prayers in the Gayatri Mantra to the Guru. Before we offer our prayers to God and Krishna, we should think that without the mercy of the Guru we cannot do anything. By the mercy of the Guru we can give the mercy of Gora and he died. And by the mercy of Gora and he died, he can get the mercy of Radha and Krishna prayer that the.
End of this first year.
So we heard that to get to do any service to Krishna we need the mercy of Radharani and all comes back to the Guru that we need the mercy of the Guru. Okay, next question. Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj Dandavadpranam at your lotus sweet. I am Vinod Gopikesh Das from JPS Arkash and I have a humble inquiry. Okay. This is based on the recent reading how can I attain my eternal Manjarisuru? How can I perfect my spiritual practice to become a Sadhana Siddha Gopi? Additionally, how can I render service to the Supreme Lord? And what should be my mindset while engaging in that service? I sincerely request your kind guidance on these matters. Hare Krishna, your eternal servant Vinod Gopikesh Das. JPS archives check. So Bhakti Ula Thakur has mentioned some different things about serving Krishna in different rasas. But first we need the mercy of the Guru. By the mercy of the Guru he can get the mercy of Nidai and go.
Yet Lord Krishna find Lord's mercy.
We gain love of Krishna by need. Thy Lord's mercy. By their mercy we can give the mercy of Shrimati Radharani.
At her Majesty.
And by her mercy we can get our Swaru. You can't jump up. You have to go step by step.
Hare.
Hare Krishna. Okay, this is a question from your spiritual daughter Haritha Madhavi Devi Dasi. Dear Gurudev, please accept my. Oh, I'm so sorry. Please accept my respectful oblique senses. Okay. Please accept my respectful obeisances. How fast can we attain perfection or Siddhadeha by residing in Maripur Dham or being in Vapu association of Guru compared to staying anywhere else outside? Please enlighten us, dear Guru Maharaj. Sorry Gurudev. Your humble servant Haritha Madhavi Devidasi.
How am I supposed to say?
What am I supposed to say?
How fast?
How fast?
See, there are lots of heroes also worse to realize our scores very goodly.
Of course here it's possible to realize quickly our service.
But how much, how clear is your desire?
How much and how pure is your desire?
Strength, little desire, small material happiness.
See, since we have little desire for material happiness and some desire for spiritual elevation.
I have desire material happiness held us. What?
So the desire for material happiness may what?
Hold us back?
Sorry Guru manager. Hold us back.
Benefit for everything you do.
Here we get a thousand times benefit for everything you do.
Mistakes are not considered great.
Mistakes are not considered that great. So many vrindamit mistakes are multiplied by a thousand.
Here they're not all the words are much.
But here they are not multiplied so much. But still if we have Nama parad, seva parad that can hold us back.
Just stay in the holy dawn.
So just staying in the holy dump is.
A factor.
That's the factor.
But how much, how care is our desire?
That's the factor. But how much and how pure is our desire? Those are also things that has to be sorry. Things that have to be understood.
They cry like a baby.
Prabhupada said if we cry like a baby for Krishna, we can achieve Krishna very quickly. But our desires are divided. So we need the mercy of Lord with thy God to actually achieve love of Krishna. Okay.
Okay.
Wow. Okay.
Next question. Question from His Holiness Bhakti Prachar Pari Rajak. Swami Maharaj.
Sitting here?
Yeah, he's sitting here. Yeah, yeah. He is sitting behind you.
For them.
How to please Guru and gain his mercy? How to please the spiritual monster and gain his mercy? Is it here there are three levels of disciples.
Uttamadhikari knows what the Guru wants.
Knows what the Guru wants.
Even when The Guru doesn't tell.
Even the Guru doesn't tell. But that's very rare. Then the Madhya Madhikari he is told.
By the Guru what he wants.
He is told by the Guru what he wants.
And he carries that ark.
And he carries that ark very.
Diligently.
Very diligently.
And does the.
Then there is the Kanishtadikari.
He graduates all the girls order Shalom.
He guys are the goodest father somehow or another. So from that we can understand one way how to please the guru.
Wants is his Guru.
And also the Guru wants to please his Guru and also the thy girl. So if the disciple is able to make them into devotees then they fill with happy peace. How to remove casualty in devotional service whilst residing in the Dhaam Remove casualty? I green casual casualty whilst being in the town. Yeah. I mean basically trying to say how to be more serious. It's a wrong term but it's all like sometimes I could not be in consciousness of that I am residing whilst I am residing in the Dham how to overcome my dear Gurudev and begging for your mercy. Mother Braja Sundar goes the question is he is saying that even though he is in the Dhamma he is not serious. He is taking things for granted. The question is how to overcome that mentality and then also begging for your mercy to overcome those habits of mentality. So after one takes initiation that's called Vajra Kriya.
When first phase is Anartha Nirvriti and.
Then the next page is Anartha Nirvriti.
You have riddle all the Anatras and.
You have to get rid of all the Anarthas and then you achieve the stage of Nishta. Fixed, fixed, steady devotion.
It's very important to experience so it's.
Very important to be serious.
Having riddled all the anantas and to.
Get rid of all the Anarthas although and other offenses to the holy name. So these anantas which are compared to beads which are mentioned in the Chaitanya Charita Anatha.
Engine pull out the weeds.
I'm sorry I didn't get that. Please forgive me. So one should pull out the weeds.
I will water.
Otherwise the water which is meant for devotional service will go on the weeds and they will grow.
Allah.
Certain weeks are La Puja Pratisha remain fade design for adoration etc. Could be to all the human beings or even to animals.
Swan winks, owls not worthy.
If someone thinks animals are not worthy.
May end up practicing jihings you may.
End up practicing Jiva, kingship, laws and.
The reeds, other arts, all his things.
So those are the deeds. There also could be other opera. So these are the things that need to be taken out. Last question from Bhakti Prachar Maharaj Gurmaj. It's not a question. Bhakti Prachar Maharaj wants to speak a bit on Swarup Siddhi. Asking for Guru Maharaj's permission. He wants to speak from.
Two minutes.
Two minutes.
Two minutes. Is it okay? He is going to like explain from the Shishyashikam, not chant the entire thing.
This concept of Swarup Siddhi and attending our eternal Swarup, lot of misconceptions are there among the devotees. It cannot be artificially imitated and mechanically attained. So there is a gradual process. Adha, Sraddha, Gadha, Sadhusranga, Vajanakriya, Anarthanibriti, Nishtha Ruchi, Asakti, Bhava and Prema. So Sadhana is up to Asakti, then Bhava, then Prema. So when someone attains the level of Bhava that time some glimpse of Siddhi is manifested. And when we attain the perfect stage of love of Godhead that time our Sadupa will be revealed. And Guru Maharaj already explained how we can attain that. By pleasing Guru, we get the mercy of Gov Nitai. And by pleasing Gauranga Mahaprabhu we can attend the mercy of Srimati Radharani. And by the mercy of Srimati Radharani we can get the mercy of Krishna. And by the mercy of Simriti Radharani we get the. But that concept comes. That concept of Sarupa and Mercya Pradhani comes when we attend the level of Prema Bhakti. A Sadhaka cannot think of that. Sadhaka should focus on Anuthni Vritti and come to the level of Nishtha, Ruchi and Asakti. So you cannot artificially try. Oh, I want to be like that. I want to be this. I want to be a Gopi. I want to be a Gopa and to be this. That this is all artificial thing. And we'll end up in spiritual suicide. And we'll give up the process of devotional service and go somewhere else and get some other Sarupa. So we should not be so much into that Sarupa. Sarupa, we should focus on our Sadhana Bhakti, when you have unearthed us, we should have strong focus on Sadhana and not committing any offenses and try to please Sadhguru And Vaishnava. Then we can slowly, slowly and gradually come to the higher level of Sadhana Bhakti. Then Bhavapti, then Priya Bhakti. Thank you very much, Ray Krishna.
And here are the Remember swallowed he. And how did our steps towards reign.
So because we are reading R Bhakti, Vinod Thakura, Chaitanya, Shikshamita, he goes through different levels of Sadhana Bhakti. And then how we are going through.
Different steps then Allah, when we reach Baba. Yeah. Certain things are realized, but at least one knowing.
So when we reach Baba, certain things are realized at least primarily.
All of those also known as Auntie.
Baba is also known as Roti.
Now from there we go to Premon.
And from there we go to Prema.
Then he's taking us through all these steps.
And he's taking us through all these steps.
Oh, he may be on a very low level.
We may be on a very low level.
And he goes on hitting other levels.
But he goes on teaching all the levels. And I was told by our translator.
As a nice fellow, Grandma, he didn't. He wrote it in Sanskrit.
In the next level of Prema, he wrote it in Sanskrit, but he didn't translate it.
Maybe it was too deep even for the ordinary people.
Maybe it would be deep even for the ordinary people. For the ordinary people. Sorry.
All these things knew how to deal with people on the earth. So all of our enjoy he does Hajj and all this.
So all these things he had to do because people on the earth, they were influenced by the Prakrita Sahajyas.
And he didn't always think.
So he was teaching how these things are mentioned in Caitanya Mahaprabhu's shipshat. So and these things are, as Maharaj said, it can't be achieved mechanically. You have to go up step by step. So by the mercy of the Guru we gained Nitagos mercy. And by their mercy we get Radharani's mercy. In that way we can gradually rise up to Prema.
Father, the Lord is doing the Samadhi.
Rankanda's works whether the devotees are doing their Sadhana Bhakti or not. That's the first thing. So someone wrote me a letter. A thing that isn't necessary to have faith for the Guru, love for the Guru. So people have these kinds of doubts. That's why today I just had question and answers. Okay, Guru Maharaj is blessing all of you.
