The class begins with a reading from the Srimad Bhagavatam 3rd Canto chapter 23, verse 7.

Krishna conscious that became the parents of Krishna all the time.

So Karadma, Muni and Devahuti were so Ka conscious that they became the parents of a Vishnu avatar. They became the parents of Kardama the children. This child. Parents of Kapiladev. They became the parents of Kapiladev.

They became.

Ah. Here devotee showed that she served her husband very delicately, lovingly and even as sacrifice her own health.

Here it shows how Devahuti served her husband very lovingly, very dedicatedly, even at the cost of her own health.

Chandra.

Told Devahati that you are serving me so much, but you can serve, but you also keep. You also keep an eye on your health.

So.

What does Roger Samuel have? This way a disciple should serve a spiritual vest.

Rla Prabhupada uses this example to say that in this way a disciple should serve the spiritual master.

And the Prabhupada said by receiving the grace of the scripture, master want to receive the grace of the supreme Lord.

Srila Prabhupada says that by receiving the grace of the spiritual master, one receives the grace of the supreme Lord.

Srila Prabhupada.

He said by serving or receiving the grace of the spiritual master.

He wanted to serve his spiritual master's desire.

Srila Prabhupada he wanted to serve his spiritual master's desire.

Srila Prabhupada. Shiny. He understood and he was. Prabhupada said that by studying this instruction of Srila Viswana Chakravarti Thakur, he realized that for a disciple the service to the lotus feet of the spiritual master is the greatest thing a disciple can do in his life.

So hot.

Colleague since.

Martin.

He told.

Robot to preach in English speaking countries. So even at the age of on past age he went to Naga.

Since Rla Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur Prabhupada asked Srila Prabhupada to preach in the English speaking countries. Even at an advanced age he went to America.

And he took so many austerities and he took so many risks and he still went.

People ask me what enthusiasm. How you can ever he tell you what Prabhupada did for us.

People ask me what enthuses you. How can we ever repay what Srila Prabhupada did for us? Srila Prabhupada showed us a great example.

His son. He tried to do all the things that his Gurudev has in Iskcon.

Srila Prabhupada tried to do all the things that his Gurudev asked him.

Among segulike, He used to translate very late in the night, staying up and translating Gita, Bhagavatam, Chaitanya, Charitamrita and other Vedic literatures. Gothan Karlan. He established the governing body Commission. He tried his best and he tried to follow all the examples that his spiritual master had shown or given.

Naruto Das Dhaka he wanted to take initiation from. Look at that. Sorry. Pull it out.

Narutam Das Thakur. He wanted to take initiation from Lokanath Goswami.

But Lokon said that I won't accept any disciples.

Pat Nagan Dash Tucker were told.

Where he went in the morning to Transformation Hall.

So Narutam Das Thakur, he would follow the Loknath Goswami when he went in the morning to answer nature's call. Then he would go there and clean the place up, clean it, sweep it.

Thinking, who is doing this?

So Lokunath Goswami was thinking, who is doing this?

One day he hid himself to watch who comes, who does this. And then he saw that it was being done by Naram Das.

So I thought, although I said, I don't think I need a Bible, but this person is serving me so dedicatedly that I don't accept them. And I'm not being Krishnaj.

So he said that although I said that I will not take any disciples, but this person is serving me so dedicatedly that if I do not accept him, that is not being very Ka conscious.

Strawberry so nicely. And he'd laid him, he cleaned him, he'd take away his stools, everything hot. So he got the blessing.

Madhavendra Puri was served by Ishwarapuri so nicely that he would bathe him. He would clean him, take away his tools. So like this he got the mercy of Madhavendra Puri. Ramachandrapuri was also a disciple of Madhavendra Puri Ramachandrapuri.

Madhavendra Puri Pader Action.

Mother in the brewery was feeling great celebration to our Lord Krishna and his love. He was crying out.

Madhavendra Puri was feeling great separation from Lord Krishna. And in his love he was crying.

Out Madhandra Puri Gobhir Birahan Sri Krishna, Krishna, Krishna, Krishna. But Ramachandrapuri thought speculated that his spiritual master was expressing sorrow like people do in the material world.

He was instructing him that you should meditate on the impersonal Brahman and be peaceful.

So he was instructing him you should meditate on the impersonal Brahman and be peaceful. So Ramachandrapuri, he became an offender to everybody.

He's not very fortunate that he had Lord Chaitanya as his disciple.

And Ishwarapuri, he was so fortunate that he had Lord Chaitanya as his disciple.

Says hi to your strawberry.

8:31 says Se haite ishwarapuri premera Sagara Ramachandrapuri Haila Sarva Nindakara.

Ramachandrapuri Hayla Sharvaninda Akar so if you.

Serve the spiritual master nicely then you can get Ka Prema.

So if you serve the spiritual master nicely, you can get Krishna Prema Jodi.

Apnea Sri Guru Devere Shiva Bhalavh.

This verse in the Bhagavatam is very important for us.

So this verse in the Bhagavatam is very important for us.

So this month of December, the last days, we're trying to drive around boats. That was Prabhupada's desire.

So in these last days of the December month, we are trying to distribute Srila Prabhupada's books. Because it is his desire.

We're trying to do all the things that Prabhupada wanted.

We are trying to do all the things that Srila Prabhupada wanted.

He told me that I should.

He told me that I should preach unlimitedly.

But I am not able to. I am wheelchair bound and I have so many difficulties.

So I need. I need your. I need help.

So I need help.

So Thay Atayeb Amar Sahatja Darkar to.

Spread this Ka consciousness all over the world.

To spread this Ka consciousness all over the world.

At least we can give the visitors, those who come to Mayapur to visit. We can give them a book. We can tell them about Krishna. In this way we can try to preach to them.

Who can help me?

Who can help me?

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Oh. We're trying to carry out the wishes of our previous Acharyas.

We are trying to carry out the wishes of our previous Acharyas.

He didn't know how he was. My grandma wanted to follow the Gaurav Mandala Bhoomi we didn't know how it was possible.

Srila Prabhupada wanted to develop the Gaura Mandala Bhoomi we didn't know how it would be possible.

Amra Jantamna Kihave.

And.

Now different channels, different devotees are sponsoring solely. Some of the holy places Lord Ranga.

Bhumi now some of the temples and some of the devotees are sponsoring some of the holy places in Gaura Mandala Bhoomi. Temple is sponsoring Viswana Chakravarti Thakur's birthplace. It is not far from here. It is in Devagram Murshidabad.

Our Krishna Kathadesh a country in the Middle east are sponsoring to acquire the birthplace of Srila Bhakti Nathakur.

Three thoughts Father Rangal.

Like this there are different Sri paths throughout Bengal which are being sponsored.

Even we have in bangladesh and vaija.

Rosa.

Galadhar shivas's red face even in.

Bangladesh we have advaita gosai gadadhar and.

Shrivas'S birthplace bangladesh amra advaita gosai gadadhar among sri baser janmasthan guli pechy. There are many many memories There.

I saw light Bhakti Sri Randa Sahara Sritagar Re established Raja VIII Lotus footprints Lord Caitanya in the places he visited he.

Wanted to make at least 108 Srila.

Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur made possibly eight footprints of Lord Chaitanya wherever he visited but he wanted to make 108.

How the house of Shamra Singh were establishing Lotus Footrans of Lord Chaitanya wherever he visited.

Now Sham Rasika is trying to establish with the help of Shamrasika we are trying to establish the footprints of Lord Chaitanya wherever he visited. How many were established? 35. So far. Yes.

How many in Brindavan Kathakuli?

22.

How many in South India?

10. This is just the beginning. This year we will start in Gaura Mandala Bhoomi.

So one of the things apparently partitions under Sahasi Tara said that.

Not how many disciples were made.

Apparently Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur said it is not how many disciples you make it is how many gurus you make.

Everyone joins Iskcon as a raktar as a student.

Everyone joins Iskcon as a Bhakta as a student. But eventually they should become a teacher.

This was Shiva Rah's desire.

This was Srila Prabhupada's desire.

Now we're trying to make that happen. Are there any obstacles?

We are trying to make that happen. But there are many obstacles.

Just like we see in the case of Srila Sharanga Thakur. He made only one disciple.

But that disciple made many, many disciples.

But that disciple made many discipline.

So.

We want to ask to Jon the teacher eventually.

We want everyone to become a teacher eventually.

So this verse is very important. Devotee Hatha mercy by serving Khair Muni and our disciple and son of mercy by serving his world, our world.

This verse is important because it shows how Devahuti got the mercy by serving Kardammani. And a disciple can get the mercy by serving his or her guru.

1970.

So if you work sincerely keeping faith in Christian spiritual master having no difficulty at all of teaching work.

So Srila Prabhupada wrote me a letter on 17 August 1970. So if we work so sincerely keeping faith in Krishna and the spiritual master, there will be no difficulty at all in our preaching work.

You see that by Devahoti and sharing very dedicatedly, she got all the mercy.

So we see how Devahuti by serving very dedicatedly, she got all the mercy.

When it comes to Ka Consciousness, man, woman Sutra, whatever.

In the Ka Consciousness movement, whether one is man, woman, Shudra, whatever, it doesn't make any difference.

All right, question and answer.

All right, question and answer.

Maharaj. It was very beautiful class and with inspiration and encouragement. So today in the beginning of the class you said that Devauti without receiving, without carrying herself she served her husband. As a result she received Kapila as her son. Same way. So same way disciples should serve Gurudev. As a result disciple can attend Lord and get Krishna Prema. And you quoted also Northam Dash Thakur Madhavendra Puri how they serve and receive Gurudev's blessings. And your sab also how dedicated to police Srila Prabhupada by distributing books. And also sometime we receive from spiritual master instruction. You should take care yourself so that this body with that body we can serve the Lord. So during marathon I have seen that many devotees they dedicated distributing books. They are not caring yourself not getting prasadam time to time. So my question is that how to balance take care yourself or dedicated to serve to please Lord and Guru. Dana ali. Sorry deki kuritaja.

I was recently in.

I was recently in Navi Mumbai Khargarh temple.

They have the Ayurvedic wellness center.

They have an Ayurvedic wellness center. So on the wall they had different coats of Srila Prabhup.

One court said you should see to your health.

One court said that you should see to your health.

How does that affect other services?

Because if your health is bad then it can affect your other services.

In the court it said first comes health.

In the court it said first comes health. Second Japa. Third service. Fourth reading.

Now I think that Devahti she was healthy but she fit and she wasn't able to care for her body. Was done that they were sick.

Devahuti was not sick but she became thin. So she was not able to care for her body. Not that she became sick. 1976 so Srila Prabhupada wrote me a letter on 4th December 1976. I think you are working too hard. Your illness is the result of too hard work. Remain in Mayapur. Take rest as much as necessary and work through your assistance and chant Hare Krishna.

Why did you move it?

Very intensive two week.

So I'm going to go through a very intensive two week program.

A lot of restrictions may be put on it.

A lot of restrictions may be put on me. But I hope that I can stay in mayapur.

So we'll have someone announce the details.

I don't know.

May not be able to get a glass on Saturday. I have to have some way of getting via.

Online or something.

So I don't know all the details. If there is. If I'm not able to give class on Saturday like this then we may try to see if there are other ways of doing like through online.

All right.

We have to end here.

Anyway. We have to take care.

Hare krishna.
