Guru Maharaj's message is your advice Advantage the following is an evening class given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on October 26, 2025 in Chennai, India. The class begins with a reading from the bhagavad Gita, chapter 12, verse 6 through 7.

Foreign.

Has the verse been read?

Did they read the verse? No, no. No verse today. It's no worse today. Wow. Verses 6 and 7. Translation in purport By His Divine grace. But those who worship me, giving up all their activities unto me and being devoted to me without deviation, engaged in devotional service and always meditating upon me, having fixed their minds upon me, O Son, Son of Pritha, for them I am the swift deliverer from the ocean of birth and death purpose. But those who worship me, giving up.

All their activities unto me, and being devoted to me without deviation, engaged in devotional service and always meditating upon me, having fixed their minds upon me, O Son of Pritha, for them I am the swift deliverer from the ocean of birth and death purport. It is explicitly stated here that the devotees are very fortunate to be delivered very soon from the material existence by the Lord. In pure devotional service one comes to the realization that God is great and that the individual soul is subordinate to Him. His duty is to render service to the Lord and if he does not, then he will render service to Maya. As stated before, the Supreme Lord can be appreciated only by devotional. Therefore one should be fully devoted. One should fix his mind fully on Krishna in order to achieve Him. One should work only for Ka. It does not matter what kind of work one engages, but that work should.

Be done only for Krishna.

That is the standard of devotional service. The devotee does not desire any achievement other than pleasing the Supreme Personality of Godhead. His life's mission is to please Krishna and he can sacrifice everything for Krishna's satisfaction, just as Arjuna did in the battle of Kurukshetra. The process is very simple. One can devote himself in his occupation and engage at the same time in chanting. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. Such transcendental Such transcendental chanting attracts the devotee to the personality of Godhead. The Supreme Lord herein promises that with the Supreme Lord herein promises that without delay he will deliver a pure devotee thus engaged from the ocean of the ocean of material existence. Those who are advanced in the yoga practice can willfully transfer the soul to whatever planet they like by yoga process and others take to the opportunities in various ways. But as far as the devotee is concerned, it is clearly stated here that the Lord Himself takes Him. The devotee does not need to wait to become very experienced in order to transfer himself to the spiritual sky. In the Varaha Purana this verse appears Nayami Parama Stanam Achiradi Archiradi Gatimbina Garudas Kandam Arupya Yates. The purport of this verse is that a devotee does not need to practice Ashtanga Yoga in order to transfer his soul to the spiritual planets. The responsibility is taken by the Supreme Lord Himself. He clearly states here that He Himself become the deliverer. A child is completely cared for by his parents and thus his position is secure. Similarly, a devotee does not need to endeavor to transfer himself by yoga practice to other planets. Rather, the Supreme Lord by His great mercy comes at once riding on his bird carrier Garuda Haribo and at once delivers the devotee from material existence. Although a man who has fallen in the ocean may struggle very hard and may be very expert in swimming, he cannot save himself. But if someone comes and picks him up from the water, then he is easily rescued. Similarly, the Lord picks up the. Similarly, the Lord picks up the devotee from the material existence. One simply has to practice the easy process of Ka consciousness and fully engage himself in devotional service. Any intelligent man should always prefer the process of devotional service to all other paths in the Narayanaiya. This is confirmed as Follow. Narayana. The purport of this verse is that one should not engage in different processes of fruitive activity or cultivate knowledge by mental speculative process. One who is devoted to the Supreme Personality can attain all the benefits derived from other yogic speculation, rituals, sacrifices, charities, etc. That is the specific benediction of devotional service simply by chanting the holy name of Krishna. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. A devotee of the Lord can approach the supreme destination easily and happily, but this destination cannot be approached by any other process of religion. The conclusion of Bhagavad Gita is stated in the 18th chapter Sarvadharman Parityaja Maamekam Sharanam Braja Aham Tvam Sarvape Bhyo Moksha Ishyami Mastro Chah. One should give up all other processes of processes of self Realization and simply execute devotional service in Ka Consciousness that will enable one to reach the highest perfection of life. There is no need for one to consider the sinful actions of his past life because the Supreme Lord fully takes charge of him. Therefore, one should not futilely try to deliver himself in spiritual realization. Let everyone take shelter of the supreme omnipotent Godhead Krishna. That is the highest perfection of life.

Triptikaga Bhaktanal Muriyam in the Varimurai Megabum Solabamanadagam. Anal bhaktani. Megam talivaga patola. Yadecham anivaritah. Adaptant. Analyanam angavanda. In. A kulam.

You see, whenever we open the Bhagavad Gita as it is we can find nectar.

I precious that process of Buddha activities. And Astagayama Bharat fire to the knowledge.

So here Krishna says the process of fruitive activities, Ashtanga Yoga, Gyana Yoga, speculative knowledge, all these things are achieved by the devotees. Krishna personally delivers the devotees.

Krishna.

Sir, the process of Bhakti Yoga is considered to be the best process. In the Chaitanya Chaita Mita there is a verse. Krishna Bhaktanishkam.

Objects, the. Siren.

So the people who want material objects, the Gyana yogis who want impersonal realization.

And the city poets are strongly over for desire Siddhis.

And the Siddhi Kamis who desire Siddhis or the Paramatma realization, the Siddha Yoga.

Varimarayan, Moola Maga.

They are all Ashanti. They are all not peaceful. But Krishna Bhakta, they have no desire. They depend on Krishna. They are peaceful. So we want all of you to be peaceful.

Who wants to be peaceful? Thank you.

Thank you.

Watch. Whether you are a Krishta or you are in the renounced order, everyone should chant Hare Krishna. According to your Ashrama you can perform your devotional service. So in the Grihasta Ashram there is a facility to offer such life to Krishna. One has to be pronounced in the other Ashrams. One has to be renounced. In his Vyasa puja address in 1973 in London.

It's all.

There must have been many grass the devotees there. He told them that they all should be Paramahamsas.

And he told them that they should also have a child thy children.

He also told them that they also should have Acharyas as their children. Because he said that we need many Acharyas.

And.

My girl was bhakti saraswati tova.

My guru was bhakti siddhanta saraswati thakur.

Another guru, bhakti siddhanta saraswati thakurgal.

He was an acharya.

Acharya.

He was a son father.

He was the son of bhakti vinod thakur in maganavar. He was a grahesta. And he had many children. One of them at least he was an Acharya.

This was the. Prince of.

So this was the principle that was delivered by Srila Prabhupada. So many people have asked me, what is it to be a Paramahamsa?

Such a table for our current happiness.

So in the Bhagavad G that's mentioned, those people who get happiness from within, they are transcendental. So we want all the devotees to taste spiritual bliss from within.

Not as possible to offer service.

That is possible through offering service to Krishna. So the spiritual master is someone who represents Krishna.

Through the process of material.

So we offer our service to Guru and Krishna through the process of Bhakti Yoga. Whether that is cooking, making garlands, helping in the Archana.

How others. Different science or service Rap has given.

Us different kinds of service. So some who are working, donating, they are very helpful. You see, if we are doing it to please Krishna, then it's spiritual. If we do something because we want to get some material benefit, then it's material. So material activities makes us to take birth in this material world again and again. If you are doing it for pleasing Krishna, then it is not material. We don't take birth. We go back to the spiritual world. We always try to think of Krishna. This is the international society for Krishna consciousness. That means we are always thinking about Krishna.

In this month of Dharmadhara5.

So in this month of Damodar, we remember how Yashoda tied Krishna. So every time Yashoda tried tying Krishna, the rope was two finger too small.

It was amazing. She brought many ropes higher than the other. But however many was too big or strong.

So she brought many ropes together and then she tied them together. No matter how many times she tried, it was two fingers short. Actually Krishna can never be tied. But the two fingers, what does it mean?

Krishna can be conquered by love.

Krishna can be conquered by love. So Yashoda, she died Krishna because of love.

And she was working very hard. She was sweating, she was trying out rush.

So she was working very hard. She was sweating and she was trying her best. Her best.

Krishna allowed herself.

And then Krishna allowed himself to be died. Because of the love of Yashoda and her attempts.

Satyamanad.

So in this Chennai temple we have many activities. And we try to do those to please Krishna.

And those are considered devotional service.

And those are considered devotional service.

So upstairs is also your Sadhguru.

So upstairs there is also Yashoda and Krishna we are offering the lamps to them. Wow.

This is a very amazing pastime.

Actually, this is a very amazing pastime. Krishna is tied to the mount of stone.

Saw a crown full of stone between the twin Arjun trees.

So he called and pulled the stone between the two Arjun trees.

And the two sons of the world are the curse.

And the two sons of Kubera who were cursed by Narada Muni.

Hold on. Is their sons.

So Krishna pulled down these two Arjuna trees and the two sons of Kubera came out and they offered their obeisances.

And so then return back to the tunnel Advance.

And then they returned back to the heavenly planets.

I'm hearing a loud noise Thunder. Others came running all the time, sir.

Hearing the loud noise, Nanda Maharaj and others came running. What's that?

Why did you die first off such a dangerous fight?

So he chastised his wife Yashoda why did you tie Krishna in such a dangerous place?

And you have to like.

Even in the spiritual relationship like Nanda Ashoda in the Grihasta life there could be some disagreements. At the center. The reason was Krishna.

Like this. As we can remember, all these different activities are Ka.

So like this we can always remember the different activities of Krishna. He doesn't have a material body.

But everybody Allah.

But his body is always transcendental. But he can appear like a human being.

He does in our veins his body.

Is Satchitananda like he doesn't have veins, his body is Satchidananda.

On the Maya bodies, the impersonalists, they cannot understand the spiritual nature of Christian activities and body.

So the Mayavadis, the impersonalists, they cannot understand the spiritual the spiritual nature of Krishna's activities and his body.

This is the amazing aspect of Krishna.

So this is the amazing aspect of Krishna.

So the devotees, they understand that Ka's appearance, his activities all divine.

So the devotees, they understand that Krishna's appearance, his activities, they are all divine.

That someone who understands Christians who cares and activities are denied they don't take birth again.

And in the Bhagavad Gita it is stated that someone who understands that Krishna's birth and activities are transcendental they don't take birth again.

So there are some criticisms of sutras, women and veterans.

So there are some criticism of The Shudras and the women in the Vedas.

Transiently translated for all you.

In the Haribhakti vilas which Banu Maharaj has recently translated for all of you.

It states that those criticisms of Sudras women are non harshal.

There it is said that those criticism for Shudras and women that is for non Vaiavas.

Can we find the candle of the Srimad Bhav.

In the ninth canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam.

In the Prabhak Prabh blood mansions have stray women, men, soldiers, one elder.

So dash in the Purport Srila Prabhupada says three women man Shudra Whatever. If they are Krishna consciousness, if they are Krishna conscious then they are all equal.

That's why.

So that's why in Tamil Nadu the aspect of casteless society is glorified.

That is achieved easily that everyone becomes.

The Lord Yak that's achieved easily if everyone becomes a devotee of Krishna.

Now we see that for the Grihastas they have to spend energy time to renounce their children.

So we see that the Grihasthas they have to spend lot of energy and time to bring up their children.

So like this all trying to know Yangti someone becomes Vaishnava but they are.

Trying so if someone is trying to become a Vaishnava they are trying.

And so that's Krishna Shiva so that's.

Considered as Krishna Seva Either Krishna Karuta.

Padagarada.

It'S not like this Krishna Gandhi movement go on for this 10,000 years.

So like this we want the Ka Consciousness Movement to go on for the next 10,000 years. At least.

Be conscious of Krishna all the time.

So anyway we should all think about be conscious of Krishna all the time.

Taste the bliss of the happiness.

And taste the bliss of the happiness within. Read these books of Srila Prabhupada. The books of our previous Acharyas.

Fill our consciousness with Krishna Fill our consciousness with Krishna.

Hare krishna.

Hare krishna srila prabhupada sri sri radhakrishna lalita vishaka deviki.
