Hare Krishna Dear devotees, today we will continue with the reading from Sri Chaitanya Sikshamrita Vaishna Sachidan Thakur 7th 7th 7th stream and the subtopic is Sai Bhav. First let us examine the concept of Sai Bha. The power that dominates and controls all other Bhavas is called Staibha as mentioned. Staibha as mentioned in Bhakira Samrata Sindhu 2.5.1 to 15 translations then Bhava, which controlling other favorable and contradictory powers presides in the manner of an efficient ruler is called the Stai Bhav. In this context the Ravi directed towards Krishna is called Staibha. Those knowledgeable in Rasa say that there are two types of Stai Bhav, Mukhya and Ghauna, primary and secondary Mukaranti Tabitha Primary rati the rati I.e. shuddha Sattva Visheshatma composed of Shuddha Sattva, the combination of Vadini and Samvich Shaktis is called Primary Rati. This primary rati also takes two forms, Svartha for its own purpose and Paradtha for another's purpose. Svartha Mukhya Rati. That primary rati which clearly nourishes itself with non contradictory Bhavas and becomes intolerably depressed with sorrow by contradictory Bhavas is called Svartha Mukherati Nourishing itself Parathamukhyarati. The same primary rati that restricting itself favors both non contradictory and contradictory powers which then become formula. It is called Parathamukhivathi. Nourishing others powers a primary Rati in these two forms, Swastha and Parvata has five varieties Shuddha, Shanta or Neutrality, Kriti, Dasya, Sakya, Vasilya and Priyanas Madhura. The Rati takes on a specific type, one of the five according to the individual nature of the devotee. Just as the sun takes on various forms when reflected through crystals and other items, the Rati takes on various forms when manifesting in different individuals. The first rati is called Shuddha Ratti as three types Samanya, common Swachha and Shanta. It produces symptoms like quivering of the body, enclosing and opening of the eyes. Samani Shuddharathi. The ratti for Krishna manifested in ordinary people, girls and so on are called Samani rati or ordinary rati. It does not have any distinguishing qualities. An example. Oh friend, please tell me why my mind like bee wax has become very soft. It is because the beautiful Sun Krishna has risen in front of me on the street of Mathura. Another example. O old woman, Just look at that three year old girl. Seeing Krishna in front of her, she is running after him and calling out and Rati manifests many varieties. Because the practitioner associates with various types of devotees and performs various Sadhanas, it is called Swachha Rati. When a devotee israti, like a clear crystal, becomes similar in nature to the rati of the devotee to whom he is attached, it is called swacharafi. An example, O noble and religious Brahmana sometimes praised the Lord as master, sometimes joked with him as a friend, sometimes protected him as his son, sometimes delighted in him as a lover and sometimes meditated in his heart on the Lord as paramatma. In this way, by various modes of service, he was assuming various dispositions. The hearts of those very mature persons who adhere to scriptures and are not absorbed in the joyful ocean of a particular rasa generally double up. Oh, that's Shla Prabhupada's translation to this entire thing. Shall I read this first? Srila Gurmaj. Okay, Srila Prabhupada's translation for this entire thing. The continuous ecstasy of love. Love can remain like a powerful king, subduing all temporary manifestation of love. And as well as any opposing elements of anger, it can be exhibited directly or indirectly. And thus excaticler can be described as direct or indirect. These symptoms of ecstatic love are possible only when one is fully situated in transfer position. Direct ecstatic love can be divided into two groups, namely selfish and selfless. When the non contradictory symptoms of ecstatic love are distinctly manifest, any contradictory symptoms create a sense of abomination. Contradictory ecstatic love is called selfish. That ecstatic love which ecstatic love which can adjust all contradictory or non contradictory symptoms is called direct selfless love. This selfless symptoms can again divide into five groups. Neutrality, servitude, fraternity, parenthood and conjugal love. Such ecstatic love assumes a particular world in contact with different objects on earth. Explain that five.
Are discussing very advanced topics of Lord Bhavsha.
So here Bhaktivedna Thakur and Prabhupada. They are discussing very advanced topics on love of Krishna.
So we are. This may not be understandable to everyone.
This may not be understandable to everyone. But.
It'S very real and available.
But it's very real and applicable.
This tells us how a Balaam Ravi is manifest.
So this tells us how ecstaticular Bala Rezvi manifests and some of the different forms that it takes.
So these are things, these are emotions that are experienced as devotees.
So these are things, emotions that are experienced by devotees.
So we want all the devotees to gradually advance so we want all the.
Devotees to gradually advance to experience all these Rati Bhavas and all those things. But to do that you have to be really absorbed in Krishna Bhakti.
How long you were sometimes scared.
So Srila Prabhupada would sometimes say a particular thing to a devotee. Very confidential.
Story 1 the Lord is Aydeep in the original.
So we want the devotees to dive deep in the ocean of Bhakira Samrata Sindhu. I go by Masi Shagrapha.
I would just reassure because I heard colonized museum quotes.
Things I should be reassured when I presented different quotes from Srila Prabhupada to a group of devotees.
One person, I don't know how many people. I was just only one.
I don't know how many people, but I was just only one.
And he was saying, iksha, go take all the karma.
He was saying, diksha, guru takes all the karma. It's very difficult. So I just want to be a Sikhsha guru. But I was told that majority of the group didn't feel the same way.
Stop.
So they're moving ahead. So I think Prabhupada said ladies also should be guru and they should get the Bhaktivedanta degree.
I sang everywhere.
And he said, maybe West 1975 all my disciples, men and women, they all would be gurus.
Not many devotees you are here, but not many devotees. I figured out this idea to study Prabhupada's books.
A few are here, but not many devotees have taken up the idea to study Srila Prabhupada's books.
I'm Arjun. I know. I got Bhaktivedanta degree.
Fortunately I got my Bhakti Vedanta degree. Some devotees, they told me that they are also going for the Bhakti Sarabharma degree.
It's not really nice. Everybody gets qualified.
It'd be nice. Everybody gets qualified in Shlatal Bhajoks.
Because of stroke. I'm not able to write so well.
You see, because of stroke I'm not able to write so well.
I thought that I can hear and understand how the.
So but I can hear and understand different codes from different shastras. So now the BPT in Bombay has published an app called Transcendental in all the Indian regional languages including English.
So I mean here the scripture prayed out oral trust and so one could.
Hear the scriptures and take oral tests.
Even if they can't write.
Even if they can't write.
Reading I think it's useful.
Reading, I think it's useful.
But they can technically take an exam.
But they can technically take an exam even if they don't know how to read.
If they hear.
If they hear. Yeah. Is already conducting the course. What course are you conducting? Bhakti Shastri, Bhakti Vaibhav and Bhakti Vedanta All Guru for uneducated people also all of them. So who's going to take that? So who's going to take that? I'm going to take it. Who's already taken?
Who?
Who wants to take it in the future which you are asking we just mentioned. Didn't. Didn't you hear that? Bhakti Shastri, Bhakti Vaibhav, Bhakti Vedanta. You heard that right? Yeah. So if you could extension Prabhupada's teachings, Lord Chaitanya's teachings, the Rmad Bhagavatam then there would be a lot of devotees all. So there are Ghostya Nandis and Vajana.
Gandhisanandi like to get liberation.
So Bhajanandi like to get liberation.
Lungs increased the number of voters.
But the Goshi Anandis they want to increase the number of the Gautis Guru and he preached to the other students when the teachers were out and then they started chanting and dancing and then Narasingadeva came to save him.
Hey. What?
So we went to a place in Tamil Nadu near to Madurai and there.
I.
There they said that here in the Kashipur we couldn't go.
I met there and they are discussed how to kill.
Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu. Remained there and they discussed how to kill Uranya Kashipur. The place is called as Goshtipura Ghosti, Ghostyanandi, Ghosti Pura because they had the Ghosti of Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh. That's where Ramanuj also got initiated. That was where Ramanuja got initiated. That place that's called as Goshtipura in Tamil. It's Called as Tirukhoshti.
And I told this President, I told this.
The first Baba is neutrality. Oh, okay, okay. The first one is neutrality. Neutrality can be further subdivided into general, transparent and peaceful. An attraction. Yeah, we are starting here. No, no, no, the first one. This is the first one. Yes, yeah, yeah, yes. An attraction for ka by people in general, by children, cannot take any specific or satisfactory position. It can be manifest sometimes in trembling of the body and changing of the color of the eyes to red, white, etc. Although there is no symptom of any particular affection. One old man was told by a young man, just see how this child, only three years old, is so jubilant simply by seeing Krishna is running swiftly, making tumultuous sound. Just see. This is an instance of neutral ecstatic love in the heart of a child without any specific subdivision. Due to different types of attraction for Krishna, there are different varieties of devotees. Their symptoms are manifested transparently, just like jewels. It is said that a great devotee Brahmana would sometimes address the supreme personality of Godhead as Master and sometimes joke with the Lord using different kinds of familiar words. Sometimes he would protect the Lord with a paternal affection. Sometimes he would cry out to the Lord, addressing the Lord as his beloved. And sometimes he would meditate on the Lord as a super soul. This means that the Brahmana expressed his ecstatic loving symptoms in different ways at different times. But in each instance, because of ecstatic love, the Brahman immersed himself in the ocean of happiness and became situated in pure love. Thus he was a transparent medium, just like a jewel that shows reality in varying colors. Varying colors according to its own nature.
Thinking about Krishna.
So we should be always thinking about Krishna and his expansion and his expansions, his realities, his pure devotees.
And despite your absorbed in the past times.
This will be absorbed in the past times of Lord Krishna.
Amidst lower examples.
So by different examples here we can see how some advanced devotees do this. So he was in different modes at different times.
He began situated pure love and he.
Became situated in pure love.
I was like a transparent jewel, had skulls, reality, rays, colors and holy ghost upon them exit.
So he was like a transparent jewel that shows reality in varying colors according to its own nature. The rati that is observed in an individual who has awakened Baba, when it becomes exclusive possessiveness for Krishna, Krishna Mamata and becomes the to a certain extent, then it can develop into Staibhav, permanent sentiment suitable for Rasa. Although this rati transcends its specific limit, meaning it advances from an unmixed single Sentiment to enter the realm of Prema, it is still referred to as Rati. This is because Prema by its very nature of infinite tier infinitude, sorry is also always recognized in the state of Rati.
Not always.
Okay, not sorry. Not always recognized in the state of Rati. Please, please forgive me. In some circumstances, Prema absorbs the peak of Rasa peak of Rasa and becomes evident. Therefore, if it is said as Taibhav, then it is understood to be rakis. Whether the individual in whom Rati has arisen is a Sadhaka practitioner or a Siddha perfected being, they are eligible to relish Rasa. Here the use of the term Sadhaka indicates that Rati has arisen in a person. But the obstacles ananthas have not yet been completely eradicated. They are considered sadhakas or those aspiring for the substance Prema Prema Rukshu as Nishta steadiness Ruchi tays in Asak the attachment arise and others gradually disappear. Even when Jaga Shakti material attachment is removed, as long as the material body exists, there remains material association. Through Krishna's mercy, this is very quickly eradicated. This material association is called an obstacle vigna. As long as obstacles exist, the Jiva does not attain Vastu Siddhi. Entering eternal pastimes of Krishna in the spiritual world. In the spiritual body. However, when Radi achieves the state of Prema becoming eligible to relish Rasa, then the perfection of one's eternal relationship with the Supreme Lord Saroob Siddhi happens.
This Shrubhat Siddhi. And as a standard, so the swaroop.
Siddhi is explained here and.
How the.
Answers are washed out, how the Anantas are washed.
Out.
We wash out the Anathasia.
The science of Multi Rama.
The types of ratti or Bhava that one gives even before Prema.
They are amazing.
They are really amazing.
And so yeah, and these are actually realized as a middle power.
So we are trying to explain realize Stai Bhava and all those things. But these things are realized of what was the last Pachna guru marriage in the level of rethink Lord Prema before Prema.
So on and on.
Completely.
Eligible to enter into KA's pastimes.
One may not be completely eligible to enter into KA's pastimes.
However, Rashin at one's general relationship with the same heart.
Gradually one's eternal relationship with the supreme Lord the Suru Siddh happens.
So these are very advanced things, largely not followers.
So these are very advanced things that Bhakti Vinathakur is.
Even the Vati Siddhanda Chandra Prabhupada's disciples said that they can't understand Vati Nantara's teachings.
I heard that Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur Prabhupada's disciples said that we can't understand Bhaktivedakura's teachings.
Not so in needy. Yeah. Dharma is blind.
So they need to hear them. Explain why Bhakti Siddhanta so explained by Bhakti Siddhanta.
So they got me.
So they got me. Oh. Read this. All these Rati premises. All these are very advanced topics.
How our advancement is gradually going up.
Like Bhakti Minotra said. How our advancement is gradually going up towards Prema.
So this is very serious.
That means we should be very serious. They look serious. They became very serious. Okay. Okay. Gurmaj. Gurraj also today is Nagabachar Bengali New Year. Today Bangladesh New Year. But nobody gave me any pizza as cakes. All the grand says the wives, they can cook their cakes.
The larger I get all my cakes.
Sir, I heard from Brahmachari. Last year they gave me all cake. What is that? Cakes. Cakes.
So.
Anyway, for us every day is a new year.
Die.
We want to serve Krishna.
Okay.
The Saudi.
Sweet.
They gave me a Bugatti sweet. I bit into it. They say oh, it's bitter.
I ate it up last night.
They said that's life. Sweet and bitter.
Bliss.
When we read this Ka consciousness is all bliss.
