Guru Maharaj's message is your advice Advantage the following is a Shri Caitanya Sheikh Shamrita class given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on January 1, 2026 in Sri Ramayapur.

Hari that's it. So continuing from Sri Chaitanya Shikshamrita by Shila Sachidananda Bhakti Vinod Thakur on the subject matter of Dasya Rasa so Ashraya of Dasya Rasa Alambana Support in the form of shelter Ashra Alambana There are four types of servants who act as the Alambana support in the form of shelter Ashraya, Adikrita appointed servants, Ashrita sheltered servants, Parishada associate servants and Anuga follower servants. All of them are eligible participants in the Rasa quotation from Bhakti Rasamruta Sindhu for Goswami Prabhupada there are four types of DASAs. The four types of DASAs are Adikrita appointed Ashrita sheltered Parishada associates and Anuga followers Adhikrata Dasas appointed servants the Vais say that Brahma, Shankara, Indra and others are called Adikrita Dasas. There are three types of Ashritadasas those who have surrendered to the Lord as their protector, Sharanyas, those who were previously Gyanis, Gyani Charas and those who are fixed in service. Seva, Nishtas, Kaliya and the kings kept in prison by Jarasandha are examples of Sharanyas. The sages headed by Shaunaka who gave up their desire for liberation and surrendered to the Lord are called Gyanicharas by the voice. Those Ashrita dasas who from the beginning are attached to the serving sorry attached to serving the Lord are called Sevanishtas fixed in service. Examples are Chandradhvaja, Harihaya, Bahulashwa, Ikshwaku, Shrutadeva and Pundarika. Indwaraka Uddava, Dharuka Jaitra, Shruta, Deva, Kshatrujit, Nanda, Upananda and Badra are known as Parishadas in Dwaraka Uddava Daruka among.

So there are times of Goddess or.

So there are four kinds of devotees giving shelter to the service of Krishna. Krishna what's the Gurumaj, Krishna and Astrita.

Are those who are running rigors.

First Ashrita are those who are appointed.

By Krishna for instance Brahma.

For instance like Lord Brahma Indra. They.

Say that. Hinda cursed on the God of mercy of Krishna that Indra was not any of them.

So Indra curse some devotees. And then when they were saved by Krishna and they came back, Indra wasn't. Indra wasn't angry with them anymore.

They got the mercy of Lord Krishna.

When he heard that they got the mercy of Lord Krishna. In Dwaraka, Uddava, Daruka, Jaitra, Shruta, Deva, Shatrujit, Nanda, Upanand are known as parishats among the Kuru dynasty. Bhishma, Parikshit and Vidura are also known as parishads. Among this Parishad, Uddava, who is controlled by Prema is the best. Those whose hearts are at all times attached to attending to the Lord are called Anugadas. They are of two types, those in Dwaraka and those in Braj. Those who are constantly engaged in personal service of the Lord are Anugas or followers. Suchandra, Mandanas, Tamba and Sutamba are some of the anugas in Dwaraka. Their forms and ornaments are almost the same as those of the parishads. Raktaka, Patraka, Patri, Madhukhantha, Madhuvrata, Rasal, Suvilas, Prema, Kanda, Marak, Marandaka, Ananda, Chandraha, Sapayoda, Bakula, Rasadha and Saradha are some of the anugas in Braj. Among the Anugas in Braj, Raktaka, Among the Anugas in Braj, Raktaka is the chief, according to expert analytical studies of the Dharak, associates of the Lord Rla Gopa Goswami has divided this into three classes, namely Dhurya, foremost Dhira and Veera. Among three kinds of Dasas, Ashritas, Parishadas and Anugas, there are Nityasiddhas and Sadhana Siddhas and Sadhakas. Attaining Krishna's mercy, his foot dust and his foot remnants and associating with his devotees are some of the unique Udipana stimuli for devotees in this rasa.

How the servants in Raja.

So the servants in Krishna Loka known as Anugas. So they are very eager to serve the Lord. So Bhaktiuna Thakur is quoting Rupa Goswami there are three classes. And veera brave.

So almost the kind of.

Okay. Among these three kinds of Dasas, Ashtas, Parishadas and Anugas, there are Nitya Siddhas, Sadhana Siddhas and Sadhakas. Attaining Krishna's mercy, his foot does his fruit remnants and associating with his devotees are some of the unique Udipana stimuli for devotees. In this Rasa, Asha.

Learns of association with devotees with his devotees.

So the importance of the stimuli associating with these devotees is mentioned here. And also it's very important to get his Maha Prasad.

Who's willing to take that?

Who's willing to take that? Who's willing to take that? Prasad of Krishna, Haribo. Okay, Adi Krita Dasa's appointed servants, Brahmap, Shankara, Indra and others have attained their position as Adi Krita Dasas through Krishna's grace.

Brahma, Srila, Indra and others.

So Brahma, Shiva, Indra and others, they are appointed by Krishna.

And. Yet this rare opportunity to serve Krishna dasas.

So they gave this rare opportunity to serve Krishna as the Adikrata dasas.

You know, it's a glorious thing, very great to serve a Lord's wisdom.

You know, it's a very glorious thing. It's a great thing to be a servant of Krishna.

No, it shouldn't take it very lightly.

We shouldn't take it very lightly.

And so we were hearing about the different types of servitors.

So we were hearing about the different types of servitors.

So the first type are the appointed servants.

The first type are the appointed servants. Now the next is the second one, sheltered servants. Ashrita Dasas. These are the three types Sharanya, those who have surrendered to the Lord as their protector, Gyanichara, those who are previously Gyanis and Seva Nishta, those who are fixed in service. Sharanya, Ashrita Dasa are Dasas, Aaa, Kalia, Jarasandha and the captive kings Rishi like Shaunaka, who have abandoned the desire for liberation and have become Gyanichar, Ashrita Das, those as Chandradhwaja, Harihara, Bahulaswa, Ikshwaku, Shruta Deva and Pundarika who have been devoted to the worship from the beginning are considered Sevanishta, Ashwita Dasa. I can ask Braja, what is his name? Jairadha Krishna maybe. I think it's supposed you should remove the coma and Shri Jayanasandhas captives. It's supposed to be like that because later I remember reading something like that. Anyway, I'll just ask Jayana Krishna and get back to you. Hare Krishna.

So.

So some people are surrendered unto Krishna. They see him as their protector.

The Lord. Kumaras have the impersonal realization as though they were energized.

The four Kumaras who wanted impersonal realization, but they became Gyanicharas, they surrendered to Krishna.

The Lord is Sevanisha, then devotees who.

Are sevanishtas.

Dedicated to serving the Lord.

So they are very dedicated to serving the Lord. Sanaka is the senior, most of the four kumaras. And all of them surrender to Krishna.

So they abandoned the desire for liberation.

So they abandoned their desire for liberation.

I heard one Doherty saying she wanted.

I heard one devotee saying that she wanted to.

Material world.

She wanted to give up the material.

World and half liberation.

And half liberation.

But this kind of negative situation.

So this kind of negative situation can lead one to impersonal liberation.

He should have a positive attraction, Lord Krishna.

So we should have some kind of positive attraction to the devotion of Lord Krishna.

Just wanting to be free.

Just wanting to be free from the material world is not enough. We should desire, we should want to serve Krishna.

So these are the devotees who are here to serve the Lord.

So these are the devotees who are eager to serve the Lord. They are known as the sevanishta ashtadas, Associates as servants, parishadas are Uddava, Daruka, Nanda, Upananda and Badraka. They serve from time to.

I thought that Uddiva was a prisoner.

I thought that Udava was a friend of Krishna.

But here it says he's a servitor.

But here it says that he's a servitor. He's a servant. So the higher rasas include the lower rasas. Anuga four level servants is divided into two categories. Purastha, those residing in Dwaraka and Rajastha, those residing in Braj. Those servants always perform service. Purashta. Anugas are Sachandra, Mandana, Stamba, Sudha, Suthada, Rajasthanuga. Dasas are Raktaka, Patraka, Patri, Madhukhanta, Madhurata, Rasala, Suvilasa, Prema, Kanda, Maranda, Ananda, Chandrahasa, Payoda, Bakula, Rasada, Sharatha, and others.

So these are called as anugas in Raja.

So they are called as anugas in rajas.

They don't have the awe and reverence that they have in Haridham.

They don't have the awe and reverence that they have in Harida.

But they want to serve Krishna.

But they want to serve Krishna.

Their relationship as anugas, the sutras of Krishna.

Their relationship as anugas are servitors to Lord Krishna. So there are four kinds of servitors. So in the scripture there are four kinds of servitors. Of them, raktaka is considered to be the best. Of the Anugas or Brajanugas.

So.
