20260220 - Caitanya Śikṣāmṛta, Seventh Stream — Conjugal Bhakti-rasa_Part_12

Krishna krishna hare hare. Hare Krishna. Dear devotees, today we will continue with our reading from Sri Chaitanya Shikshamita Vaishala Sachidananda Bhakti Vinod Thakur. Today we'll be reading on the subject matter of. Continuing with our reading on the subject matter of Madhuriya Rasa. Today's subheading is so Bhava. In Madhura Rasa, the permanent ecstasy Stai Bhava is Madhura Rati, this rest Harik, please close the door. This rati arises from Abiyoga, the expression of one's Bhava, either personally or through another. From Vishaya, the five sensory contacts, sound, Shabda, touch, Sparsha form, Rupa, taste, Rasa and fragrance. From Samantha, the glories of Krishna's lineage, beauty, qualities and pastimes. From Abhimana, the firm decision to accept only Krishna as one's object of love, even amidst many attractive alternatives. From Tadiya Vishesha, Krishna's footprints, the pasturing grounds of Sri Vrindavan and his Priyajan who possess Rag Anurag and Mahabhav. From Upama, the resemblance of Krishna and from Swabhava, the nature that is self manifest and does not depend on any other cause. So Bhava is of two kinds, Nisarga, strong impressions formed by deep habitual practice and Swarupa, the inherent nature of the soul. Qualities such as beauty, Guna form, Rupa and hearing are merely slight causes for awakening this love. Nisarga refers to the impressions Samskaral formed from a firmly established semblance of rati perfected over many births. The nature of Bhava that is causeless, beginningless and self manifest is called Swarupa. This Swaroopa is of three kinds, fixed in Krishna Krishna, Nishta, fixed in the beloved's Lalana Nishta and fixed in both Ubayanishta, the Rati of of the damsels of Gokula. For Krishna it is innate, that is Swarupa Siddha, the rati of those who have attained perfection through spiritual practice, I.e. sadhana Siddha is Nisarga Siddha Siddha, the rati of practitioner Sadhana that's awakened through courses such as Abiyoga and others. Upon attaining Sadhana Siddhi, the manifestation of the Surupa fixed in the beloved's Lalana Nishta arises.

So you say that and this play a lot of various as such.

So we see that in this display of love of Krishna there are various aspects

and some are eternally projected at Saurup Siddhi.

So there are some are eternally perfected.

That is Saurup Siddhi, the song of reconnaissance.

And someone has become perfect by Sadhana. That is Sadhana Siddhi.

Various ways one achieves perfection.

So in various. So in various ways one achieves perfection.

And. And so Krishna reciprocates what everyone appropriately.

So Ka reciprocates with everyone appropriately.

Today we heard 360 types of loving relationship with Krishna.

Yesterday we heard of 360 type of. Of loving relationships with Lord Krishna. 120 times three is 2120 times three, that's 360. That's 360.

So.

And the three is Kanishta, Madhya, Menuttam.

So Krishnara segregates with his devotees according to their. Devotion.

So Krishna reciprocates with the devotee according to their specific level of devotion.

Now people say the material world, oh, I love this.

So people say in the material world, oh, I love this.

I love my dog.

I love my dog.

I love my cat.

I love my cat.

I love my country.

Okay, that's not even to say I love my country.

And why can't we say I love Krishna?

Why can't we say I love Krishna?

And gradually that we develop into our real rati. Our real love.

And gradually we will develop our real rati. Real love.

So I mean try that.

I mean try that.

That you think I love Krishna.

That you think I love Krishna.

No. My love may not be completely pure yet.

That love might not be completely pure yet. But

start.

But it's a good start. Chai.

I mean people say they love so many things.

Many people, they say that they love so many things.

But we're actually in Krishna consciousness. We're supposed to love Krishna.

But actually in Krishna consciousness we are supposed to love Krishna.

And so a candidate of the arms, The rati of those who have attained to write spiritual practice.

So eventually that becomes rati of those who have attained spiritual perfection. So.

Is it how integrated loving relationships.

So you see how intricate is the loving relationships with Lord Krishna.

And then Raja, it's very complicated, very intimate.

In Braja, it's very complicated, very intricate.

Yeah. Weaves of web of loving relationships.

What's that?

He weaves a web.

Oh. Weaves of web of loving relationship. Oh. Oh. Chai. The next subtopic, three types of rati. Rati is of three kinds. Sadharani Samanjasa and Sadharana Samartha. The rati of the Devis of Gokula is Samartha. The rati of the Queen's Mahishis is Samanjasa. In Kupja there is Sadharani Rati Samartha, the topmost Rati. Having acquired the name Samartha due to her power that surpasses all others, it's endowed with profound potency that causes complete forgetfulness.

So forgetfulness of everything else.

So forgetfulness of everything else. But Krishna. Samanjasa, When Rati becomes firmly unified through opposing moods, it attains the name Prema. Prema gradually manifests its own sweetness and assumes the form of Sneha, Mana, Pranaya raga, Anuraga and Bhava. Just as sugarcane undergoes progressive transformation starting from the seed, then cane juice, molasses, crystallized sugar, refined sugar and finally white sugar candy. Similarly, Rati, Prema, Sneha, Mana, Pranaya raga, Anuraga and Bhava are successive elevations of the same substance. So

reading in the Chaitanya Chaitanrita describing chanting Hare Krishna so we were reading

in the Chaitanya Charitamrita how Lord Chaitanya was describing about chanting Hare Krishna.

How by chanting that produces Raji or Rava.

How by chanting it produces Rati or Bhava. I started sentence and different ecstatic symptoms

like hair standing on end voice choking

up loud and crying like hair standing on and voice choking up, laughing, crying, being stunned, being stunned.

So.

And that further intensifies to Prema standards of. The different standards of Prema standard Sneha Mana Pranaya raga Anuraga Bhava.

So Bhava also Rahabha Bhava also has Mahabhav and that is.

That is particularly experienced by Shrimati Radharani.

And also like Lord Chaitanya also experienced that Mahabhav.

Lord Chaitanya also experienced that Mahabhav and

so did what's down. He was a sign of that also

Madhavendra Puri he was experiencing that.

So this is a very rare thing.

So this is a very rare thing.

So the example is killing that distars sugar cause from a seed of various stages. So like that.

So the example is given how sugar goes from a seat through various stages like that.

And so like that love of Krishna goes through various stages.

So like that love of Krishna go through various stages.

So you want all the devotees to experience the Lord Krishna.

So we want all the devotees to experience the this love of Krishna.

And so Lord Chan killing us out very easily.

So Lord Chaitanya is giving this out very easily. Well,

Krishna would give it out very sparingly.

Krishna would give it out Right.

Sparingly.

Sparingly.

He would only give it to someone completely stranded.

He would only give it to someone who is completely surrendered.

But Lord Jajana wasn't considering who is whole, died, who not. If you want it, use it.

Lord Chaitanya wasn't considering who's qualified, who's not qualified. If you want it, he gives it.

And so I read all in the scriptures, chanting Hare Krishna is so powerful.

I was reading in different scriptures how chanting Hare Krishna is so powerful.

And the age of Holly, just like in the other ages, there are some process Satya meditation.

So just like in other Yugas, there were different processes. In Satya Yuga's meditation in Treta Yuga is Fire Yagya. And in Dwapa Yuga is worshiping the lotus, worshiping the deities.

So

in Kali Yuga it's chanting Hare Krishna Maha Mantra. The Maha Mantra.

You like that?

Do you like that?

So my meditation, all the other processes call you up. It don't work.

So all this meditation, other processes in Kali Yuga, they don't work. You have to chant hare krishna, hare krishna krishna krishna hare hare hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare.

And some mantras it said hare krishna twice.

In some mantras it says hare krishna

twice, krishna twice, hare twice, krishna twice, hare twice, hari rama. Same thing.

Hari rama also same thing.

Hari rama twice, hari rama twice, rama twice, rama twice, hari twice, hari twice. That means.

That means hare krishna, hare krishna, krishna krishna hare hare hare hari.

So. Angina, I. I think that now first everyone makes some videos explaining all these things.

I was thinking first to make some videos to explain all these things.

I'm not going to be very easy to understand.

Would be very easy for the devotees to understand.

The videos later can be made into books.

The videos later can be made into books.

I don't know if any of you are expert at making new videos.

I don't know if any of you are expert in making these new videos. New videos.

Now with AI, that's more easy.

Now with the AI is. Okay, please get in touch with Radharam and Sevak Prabhu or Vishal Prabhu.

And so you know, some people made some videos. I. I have given some specific outlines.

So you see, some people have made some videos and I've given some strategy online.

I didn't follow the outline.

Oh, I have given some strategic outline. But they didn't follow that outline there.

They did to some extent they did it.

To some extent.

Some extended, circulated, went their own way.

Okay. Some, to some extent they Speculated going their own way.

I don't know. Suggest today. Don't just do suggests to me.

Just don't do it.

And if I like your idea, I'll change if I like your idea, I'll.

I'll change.

Outline.

So we need people to give my

outline to kill the video according to my outline.

To give the video according to my outline.

Anyway, so I hear.

Bhakti Natakur has explained this different style

Bhavas, Santa Ros, Tasharas, Satya Ross now is the same.

And now he's explaining Maduriras.

And I can see that it's very.

You can see that's very intricate.

So Krishna is having this intensive type

of loving relationship so Krishna is having this intensive types of loving relationships.

And devotees that sometimes experiencing different levels of love of Krishna.

Devotees sometimes experiencing different levels of love of Krishna.

And sometimes I want to say that they actually enjoy more than Krishna.

Sometimes you can say they actually enjoy more than Lord Krishna.

And so that was being a devotee is something really great.

So therefore being a devotee is something really great.

Yeah, very fortunate.

All are very fortunate.

But. Destruction to lead us away from Krishna.

So in Kalyuga, it's a bit of distraction to lead us away from Krishna.

But there's one somehow chants Hare Krishna, stays fixed in devotional service.

One somehow chants Hare Krishna and stays fixed in devotional service.

Right? Please.

Then Krishna is very pleased. So he gives his mercy to those devotees.

So what's amazing is that although you live a short time, all the Lord's only to the holiness of holy law process very easy.

So what's amazing is that within a short time, even there are so many difficulties in Kaluga. But the process is very easy.

So Krishna is giving us a special facility.

So Krishna is giving us this special facility.

So that's why we want someone as a harder kidney enthusiasm.

Someone just asked me, how do you keep your enthusiasm?

Why not?

Why not? There's so much to be enthused about. Sadharani. In Kubja there is Sadharani rati. The term Baba here refers to Mahabhava. The type of Prema that arises in devotee also arises in Krishna in the same manner in Madhuras. Despite the cause for destruction between a young man and a young woman, the bond of feeling that remains indestructible is called Prema. Prema is of three types, Prada, Madhya and Manda. According to his gradations.

As destruction between young man and young woman.

So in the material world it says that material world it says that there's destruction between a young man and a

young woman on that bond between a

young man,

young, indestructible.

When the bond between a young man and a young woman becomes indestructible, that

bond of hearing,

that bond of feeling is called prema.

So that's why the prema in the spiritual world of human Israel is very special.

That's why the Prema in the spiritual world or in this material world. Material world is very special, very rare

in the material world.

It's very rare in the material world.

It's common in the spiritual world as

it is common in the spiritual world.

But one cannot choose, but one can

achieve Prema

Raji more common.

But it's more common. Raj is more common. Rati is more common.

Bhava.

Bhava. Not this Mahabhava which is in the stages of Prema.

So Baba

Bava orati leads to Prema

and then br is more condensed as

and then Prema is more condensed as Neha.

Like that.

No, no, no. We have to be some other conversation.

So what do you say? All of the different stages.

What are the different stages? Sneha, Mana raga, Anuraga, Baba Mahabhava. What are the different stages? Mana raga, anuraga mahabhava. Yeah, yeah. It's a long one. I don't think so. Please be blessing. How many has bhakti shastri. Harmony has Bhakti Vaibhav. There's one Mataji that she has doing here.

I like all the devotees to study Prabhupada books.

So we would like all the devotees to study Srila Prabhupada's books and get these degrees. And get these degrees.

You're all Vaishnavas and Naish knowledge.

So you are all Vaishnavas and Vaishnavis

and Prabhupada said that it should also

be Prabhupada said we also should become knowledgeable.

And he wanted the devotees to inherit his name of Bhaktivedanta.

So we want the devotees to inherit his name of Bhaktivedanta.

So now the education minister has made a song test.

So now the education minister has made a summative test.

He said to take it. At present the rule is that age is more than 40.

So to take it at the the present rule is that your age has to be more than 40 or that

you have some responsibilities or you have some responsibilities that restricts you from taking the course.

That restricts you from taking the course. Hare Krishna.

So read the books. Degree

so if you have read the books, you can get the degree within a week.

When I took the test, there was no song exam.

When I took the test, there was no summative examination.

I was a trailblazer.

I was a. What's that?

Trailblazer.

Oh, you were the. He was. I was a trailblazer.

No,

As long there was, there wasn't any summative exam for Bhakti Sarubharma as now there isn't any summative exam for

Bhakti Sarah Palma so I took the test and maybe now they'll make a summative exam.

I took the test, maybe now they'll make a summative exam. Hare Krishna.

But. So why not? I read Ravi. I don't know, over 20 times.

I've read the Bhagavad Gita. I don't know. Maybe over 20 times.

Maybe 24 or more. I don't know.

Maybe 24 or more. I don't know.

But I was wondering, like Prabhupada, he wanted to establish Varanasram.

I was wondering Prabhupada, he wanted to establish Varanashram.

But so by reading the Bhagavad Gita

again and again, so by reading the Bhagavad Gita again and again, I realized that a secret. I realized that secret.

Krishna said in the 18th chapter, this is the most confidential knowledge.

Krishna says in the 18th chapter, this is the most confidential knowledge.

You probably all understood that, right?

You probably all understood that, right?

He told Arjuna to fight.

So he told Arjuna to fight.

Some people think Arjuna was a Chajria, so he was fighting.

So some people think Arjuna was a Kshatriya. So he was fighting.

Then he was a Jajira does for sure. He was trained in military arts and one of the best archers.

So he did what the Kshatriya does. He was trained in the military arts,

but normally are in a mode of passion.

Normally the Kshatriyas are in the mode of passion.

They want a kingdom, they die in a battle, they go to heaven.

So one kingdom. When they die in the battle, they want to go to heaven.

But Arjuna,

But Arjuna, he didn't care for that. He threw his Gandhiva bow down.

He was going to do begging and

he wanted to go begging.

Most confident in knowledge.

But Krishna told him the most confidential knowledge.

As everything else.

Yes,

after everything else. After everything else, tell them, simply fight for me.

And he told him, simply fight for me.

Be my devotee, all other religions, other duties,

give Be my devotee Give up any other religion, any other duties Just fight for me.

Amber the applies to everyone that applies to everyone. Simply do it for Krishna so whether

Sutra Vaishya Brahmin Kshatriya Simply do it

for Krishna so my realization is that Krishna wants us hello KC
