The following is a morning class given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on July 27, 2025 in Sridhar Mayapur, India. The class begins with a reading from the Srimad Bhagavatam 3rd Canto chapter 18 verse.

Ram.

The pastime that we see here, here Lord War or Lord Varaha is saving the planet earth from the ocean depth of the ocean. This earth planet had fallen into the Garbadaka ocean or into the depth of the Garbadaka ocean.

So Krishna was saving the earth in his war form.

So Krishna was saving the earth in his boar form. Boars are famous for working in the mud.

Prithvike Thik Moto Bhave Bhaachano. In this way he had picked up the earth from that situation and it was his responsibility to save planet Earth. This demon had abused used abusive language on Krishna in his boar form.

So it's not that Krishna not sensitive, he dislikes it very much. Someone criticizes him.

So it is not that Krishna is not sensitive. He dislikes it very much when someone criticizes him.

So when the demon insulted him, he felt it.

So when the demon insulted him, he felt it. But he tolerated it because he had a duty to save the earth.

Then he took the return of the demon.

After he saved the earth then he returned to the demon.

So externally it so appears that he is running away from the demon. But he is not running away from the attack. He is simply saving the earth first and then he will engage in warfare.

We are all lost to me.

We are all supposed to be Vaishnavas.

Amader Amra, Shakolai, Amra Vaishnav Hawar.

So the Lord appears before us. He deformed as an Archa altar.

So the Lord appears before us in his deity form. He is called Archa Avatar.

Can't see the Lord. He said hear the Lord talk to us.

So in our neophyte stage we can't see the Lord and we can't hear the Lord talk to us. So he is so kind that he appears before us in his deity form.

Axambai Mukumda, Dattatar Putraochen Raghunamdan So in at Srikhanda past Jajigram, past Katwa there is a place called Srikhandakshetra. At Srikhanda Khetra there is a Vaishnava known as Mukundadatta whose son is Raghunamdhan.

Son was a young boy. He gave uponayam and he had a horror. He had a silo who was dying.

So Mukundadatta's son was young boy. So he gave him upanayanam and he had to go and see a disciple who was dying. So Raghunandan was told by Mukunda Datta to do the offering to Lord Krishna.

Openand. He was told that you should take the offering offer to Laddugopal. And after the offering is over you bring the prasadam back.

I brought the plate of ladoos. A lot of.

So he brought a plate of ladoos. And he told ladigo. And he told, please eat these. But the deity did not eat. He thought that the deity eats the way we eat. But he didn't see that.

The Lord.

Can eat from simply by glancing. He does not have to pick up with his hands to eat. And the prasad, prasad, akira kam thagve prasad and prasadam also remains the same.

But Raghunandan, he started to cry. So the deity asked him, why are you crying?

I am not eating the ladoos.

You are not eating the laddus.

If I eat the ladoos you won't cry.

So the deity asked if I eat the laddu, you won't.

Please. So deity started to eat the ladoos.

So the deity started to eat the ladoos. Picking up with his hands and eating them. Then he brought the empty plate back to his father.

Mother, Mother. The mother asked where are the laddus?

Oh.

Oh Thakur KE oh. The Lord ate them.

So when the father came back, Mukundananda when he came back, all the told him whatever.

So when the father came back, Mukund Datta came back. So the mother told him what happened. The father thought maybe the child ate the ladus.

So then father said okay, give the ladoos to the child like normal. I'll hide and see what happens.

So the father said to the mother, give the ladoos to the child as normal. I will hide and see what happens.

He hid behind the deity and he was watching.

His lord. He offered the deity, please take this.

So he saw that Raghurindra was praying to the deity, please take these ladus.

After that the father could not hear anything.

And he looked around the corner.

The deity was eating the ladoo.

Ah.

The deity was eating the ladoo.

And he had the ladoo in his hand.

And he had the laddu in his hand.

And Was held in.

It was half eaten among Shata Advekhilo.

So the father came out, he saw the half eaten ladoo.

So the father came out and he saw the half eaten laddu in the.

Hands of the deity Babatakon Lukana Wasatake. So he came out and he said, today I caught you. The evidence is right in your hand.

So Sadhana.

General people in general, they think or they understand that the deity or the deity of the deity form of the Lord cannot move around.

There are many history is like Shakshi Gopal. This history you have faith really can do anything.

But there are many histories like the history of Sakshi Gopal. If you have faith, then the deity can do anything.

If you are breaking the rams results or you're doing some kind of sandalwalker worshipping the deities. He knows it. He knows it. He's disgusting.

But if you are breaking the principles or doing some sinful activities, then he knows it. He knows it. He is disgusted.

You think ultimately the Lord is personal. He knows that.

And if we are Mayavadis and we think that the Lord is ultimately impersonal, then he also knows that.

If we pray to the Lord very nicely, then the Lord is also aware of that and he becomes pleased with that.

It should be very personal in our worship of the deities.

So we should be very personal in our worship of the deities.

Shows us how the Lord has healings.

This example of the Bor avatar shows us how the Lord has feelings.

Bhagawan, When Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was listening to the Vishnu Sahasranam prayers at that time, when the name of the boar incarnation came, when the Varaha incarnation came, he took the form of the boar.

He manifested four hooves and came in front of Murari. Gupta.

Has taught us how art should be worshiped by our solid.

Srila Prabhupada has taught us how the Lord is accepting should be worshipped very personally.

So the Lord we offer praise to the Lord. That is one aspect. But the Lord is Bhavagrahi Janardhanay. He accepts the mood of his devotees. Therefore, when we offer sincere prayers with our complete heart, he understands and accepts those.

Lord Chaitanya has manifested sore hope.

In the books it mentions that Lord Chaitanya had manifested his four hooves. If anyone claims to be Krishna, then please ask them. Please manifest your four hooves.

Krishna Jekana RUP Dharan Kottaparan Krishna can take any form at will.

Each or form has a particular mood.

Each form has a particular mood.

Our Lord Nishingadev is another form of Krishna. When we worship the Lord, when we offer our devotion, when we offer our life and heart, and when we offer our affection, the Lord accepts that.

Sometimes it says our heart, no feeling, no love.

And so some pundits, they by heart the verses and offer prayers by which the Lord will not be pleased, but little pleased.

Kona Pandit Haitokicho Mukostakara Mantra shepherd.

If you pray for the Lord feeling I love the Lord. He's my master. He's my purpose tonight. I mean, he will appreciate that much more.

But if you men and ladies pray to the Lord with feelings, he is my master, he is my purpose of life, then he will appreciate that much more.

How many of you have prayed and how many of you have devotion our deity?

How many of you have prayed? How many of you have devotion for our deities?

I want to say the Lord.

So we want to see that the deities are pleased.

Say Edi has no legs or is faster than we are.

Some verses in the Vedas say that the deity has no legs, but he is faster than everyone.

It does not mean that he does not have. It means that he does not have material legs and limbs. But he does have transcendental form. And he does. He does not have. He has a transcendental form and therefore he is faster than all of us.

The Panchatatwa, they are very merciful.

We have to deal with them as.

People, but we have to deal with them as people.

The more we read all those books, more we can understand.

The more we read Srila Prabhupada's books, the more we can understand the mood of the deities.

Lord Chaitanya and the renowned cause there under smiley body they used all the attempts of the people to cast them. Or.

When the Lord went to Vrindavan, the cows there went to sniff the fragrance of the transcendental body of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. And the people could not succeed in trying to shoo them away.

Baka Jakan Bhagavan Sheikra.

Any different Angels are looking at the thing and they're growing a lot of the time. This description of Kah avatar is very brilliant.

The Bhagavatam has many different angles of looking at something. So the Bhagavatams, this description of Lord Varaha is very revealing.

Finally turned to fight with demon.

When Lord Varaha finally turned to fight with the demon, his hind hoof touched the earth planet in Navadvi Dhamma.

And.

The place is known as we go there on Parikrama every year Amraprati Bacharai.

On the one side he was touching with his hind hoof the earth planet and with other hoofs he was attacking the demon Hiranyaksha with his club.

So we are very much connected to the Raha avatar.

So we are very much connected to the Varaha avatar. Srila Prabhupada would call him Lord Boar.

A rare opportunity for us to see the personality of Godhead.

So this is a rare opportunity for us to see the personality of Godhead.

Prabhupada personally worship thee.

Srila Prabhupada personally worshiped the brass Sri Sri Radhabi I brought the Mayapur Chandra deity. But he was. But he was too small. I miscalculated the size of the deities.

I understand.

So Srila Prabhupada said that's all right. We will put Mahaprabhu on a higher stand.

Went and heard Chaitanya Rahu many old articles.

So later we had the Pancha Tattva where I personally went and poured many gold articles while forming them.

Raho Rupai.

Because we are not sure if the holy.

We were not sure that if we gave all the gold to the sculptor that he would not steal them.

So when the deity was being cast they usually keep the deity upside down. So the feet were up and the head was down and it was all melted metal. So I poured. I put the ornaments in there while they were. While this was going on.

All like.

Rings and other things people had donated gold like rings and other things.

Bhaktara Sonar Aunti.

Those are not pities. They are Karthi members.

They are not deities. They are Pratibimbas.

And the top voyage and we all installed.

So when they were brought here, the GBC and the top Pujaris we installed them.

Following all the details. Paramato as a installed by the devis.

I won't go into all the details. Radha Madhav Ashtasakis they were also installed by all the GBCs. I did the Nyasa Hoba for one of the deities.

From the spiritual world Seva worship.

So we begged Radhakrishna Ashtasaki Panchatatwa to come from the spiritual world and accept our Seva our service. I don't know which of you are dear to the deities but the deities are for everyone. Are there any questions or comments? Hare Krishna learned Pranam Guru Maharaj thank you for the nice class. I wanted to ask how we can do the service to our deities more lovingly and more sincerely.

My hang of the deity is to shine the inner object.

When we are neophytes, we may think of the deities. We may consider the deities as inert objects.

Gradually we should understand other people.

Gradually we may understand that they are people and we should love them. There's one lady there.
