The following is a question and answer session given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on March 10, 2025 in Sri Ramayapur India.

So today we are having another question and answer time. Yeah, I have some questions. Yeah. Alhadini Mataji is collecting the questions from the devotees and she's sending it to me. Okay. Guru Mahesh, first question is from your spiritual daughter. First question is from your spiritual daughter Tattaka Mataji. Okay, so her question is. Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my respectful obeisances. All glory to Srila Prabhupada. Yesterday we were hearing how we can only realize our Siddhadeha after we attained the Baba stage and by the mercy of Guru Nitai God and Shrimati Radharani. We see however among the devotees that some have natural inclinations for certain services such as cooking, singing, deity, worship, etc. As well as varied Ishtadevas. Where do these inclinations arise from? Is it from qualities we have obtained in the material world or through the deep through that eternal personal relationship we have with Krishna?

Incident spotsline.

So I was following some book and Srila Prabhupada says those who are following this and this book, they are in this and this Rasa.

To us. In others process we could debate what.

The devotee is experiencing to ascertain what his Rasa is. So service depends on the mood, servitude, friendship and in paternal some are mother, some are father. In conjugal you are Vaishnavi. So in servitude could be male or female. In friendship it could be male or female. That's what you mentioned. I forgot to repeat the part that you mentioned. No, no. Before you said before that you said in servitude. But in conjugals only female. In servitude or friendship or in parental could be male or female is.

Servant and friend are real.

So service is servant and friendship is male. Okay, so parent. But if you're a mother, you are a lady. If you're a father, you are a male. The question even I forgot. Sorry. So the question was Gurmarat. So we have inclination towards varied Ishtadevas. Where do these inclinations arise from? Is it from the qualities we have obtained from the material world or through that eternal personal relationship we have with Krishna Karam Ofila, the son of the Husband Kanam and Deva Bhuti. So we read in the Bhagavatam Kardamuni and Devahudi, they had daughters and then they had Kapila Dev as their son. So.

She asked Karl teacher and she.

Asked Karthila Dev to teach her. So she went to the spiritual world in Kapalaburi's planet. She was the mother. Yes, she really was. So it's hard to say.

She loves.

She got the relationship from her service to Kaplani.

All right, I'll.

So different. Different is. May have different opportunities. Okay, the last question. But they only said two, Guru Maharaj. Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay. I just saw this. Sorry. How we know we have overcome the unearthed Tungavitya Gopi Devi Dasi from Surat. How do we know that we don't. That we have. We have overcome all the unattas?

We don't have any.

Oh, okay. If you don't have any.

How do.

You know when your stomach is full? Do you ask your neighbor? You know that you're full? There's another question. We are also sending it through her. Are we done with the Anantas questions? Are we done with the anarthas? I mean the Christian. So an are coming up in the mind. If it's normal, then you know it. Okay, so the next question is from. What's the name? Funny. Sevika. She said she next to you. Okay. Dear Guru Maharaj, the question is what should be first? Chanting or rounds or doing our duties at home and works out. You have to finish your rounds every day. It would take one and a half to two hours to charge 16 rounds. There are how many hours in a day? 24. Yeah, yeah. So what do you do with the other 22 hours?

The tail vow.

So you take a vow. Then you would chant minimum 16 rounds every day and avoid breaking the four regulatory principles.

16 rounds.

So some people, they chant their 16 rounds in the morning and rest of the day we are free for the other duties. So how you can do that? It's up to you. Okay. Any question? No, no, no, no. There's a fly outside. Hard. Yeah. So he was the first question is personal. We can't ask. It's personal. It's personal. It's personal. Email Guru Maharaj. That's better. I'll read it to you. I'll switch off the mic and read it to you. If you're okay with it, you can answer that. I clearly told them not to ask personal questions because you know. Oh, okay. That's a nice question. Here. Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my respectful obeisances unto the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to your divine grace. Please give. Okay. Please. Please give a brief description about Siksha Guru and Diksha Guru. Diksha Guru gives you the mantra only around one. You can only have one Diksha guru.

There are two types.

Six is of two lives. One one like on the level of Yudiksha Guru, one.

Holy spiritual life and.

One who give relevant instructions for your spiritual life.

However, how many seashell arrows you have.

There is no limit in how many six shape arrears you can have. If the Sikhsha Guru gives some instruction which contradict your Diksha guru, you should ask a Diksha guru about that because he is responsible for your Ka consciousness. If you think that your dictionary guru is giving you wrong instructions then confirm it with your Diksha Guru. We have done four questions. Yeah. The last one is from one more day 2:40. Guru Maharaj, she asked a question. I really tapped you but it sounds quite personal. I switched off the mic.

Oh.

They love it. Switched it up. Oh, she deleted the question. Is basically a Mataji is asking that just one question is. I constantly violate Vaishnava etiquette because according to my Gola karma I constantly want to be in the company of Prabhu to communicate with them. All my mentors are men. I feel great inspiration in Krishna consciousness. But I constantly worry why I do not have the qualities to follow Vaishnava etiquette which what should I do? So I felt this like maybe she could write it to you. You can ask her more pursuit questions and then you can guide her accordingly. If it becomes in a general it becomes very generic answer and I don't think so. So Gurma said you can write to him. Okay.

So ma' am.

Good. Manage. It's late now. It's okay. 8:15. Okay. Any. Any questions from Prabhu?

There.

Send here. Send here. Take the picture of the question. He is nothing. He wants to speak. Can you hear? I'll have any message. Can you hear him.

Question for a long time. Sometimes we hear Krishna Katha and then there are quotations of Bodhi Vaishnavas other than our line of Acharyas starting from Bhaktamun Thakur from another other families of Mahaproos branch. So how to accept those teachings?

Those teachings so the question basically was sometimes we hear Krishna Kantra and some quotations. They come from microphone. So the quotation can you hear me? Am I audible? So the quotation comes from Vaishnavas, from the other Gaudiya line. Like Advaita Kaparivar or different Gaudiya Vaishnava Parivas. So what should be our stand and how should we perceive those quotations? You should see. They should be in our parampara. Like Bhakti Nantuckhar, he is in our Paranchara. So others, those who are out of this parampara. You can ask your Diksha Guru. So you can accept. Like Srila Prabhupada has given us instructions. You can accept those instructions. Hare Krishna. Krishna.
