A Lecture on Rādhāṣṭamī || Los Angeles, USA #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

Jaya Pataka Swami explains Rādhāṣṭamī, the appearance day of Rādhārāṇī, Krishna's supreme pleasure potency. He tells stories from scripture and temple tradition about her mercy, including accounts of saints like Rāmānujā Muni, and offers devotional practices like chanting and fasting for the festival.
Sam Sama. Ram Ram Ram Sa Sam. So I just. I live at Mayapur Gamma in Mayapur, the birthplace of Chittani Mahapuru. I'm a significant disciple of Illustrious His Divine grace. Yesterday I was at the festival in Croatia. And it was full today due to Los Angeles. And then I have to speak tonight on the last Goddess of Croatia. So the blessings and divine Shabbat. To speak on this topic appropriately but adequately. There's something I can say in two words. Supreme personality of adventure, Sri Krishna. He explains how he has many energies in Upanishads. It says the Lord has varieties of energies. And that these energies of different kinds. So the Tao's energy is called the Allah. Because all energies are fitted in life for the pleasure of the world. Is that pleasure potency? But it was African to talk about Radharani. I remember once in Montreal. I asked her to come up with a question about Aravindi. And he. She's a very esoteric topic. Because dangerous. If we think of her as an ordinary and mundane personality. Or as a woman in the material world that will be committing some of this, which is a divine personality. He says Krishna came from the spiritual world that manifests best things here. So along with him came the mother of Father came also. Savior says that Mark he has no other. But for best time for relationships being an exceptional. This is very difficult for most people to understand how God is anymore. This is the nature of the world. He has all these kind of contradictions. They can actually equalize in his personality. We know that what was the 20th year? I'm not sure what day is. It was the Jan master means of one fortnight. The next ashtav means the eighth day of the lunar cycle. She's 15 days younger. She only comes in order to serve the Lord. So she doesn't want to see the first person that she sees. She wants to see Ka. So when she appeared, her eyes were closed. The parents thought that she was blind. And they slowly opened eyes when Krishna is nearby. So Nagar Muni. Once he came the suspension of Padma Quran. When he came to Binhawadan, say a month after Krishna appeared. And he knew that whatever Krishna got his energy. The supreme energy. Supreme energy is even more merciful than Ka. So then he went and Ramuni went and searched. He go to different houses. I like to bless your children. So you would be there. Your parents come in. Somehow you can't see anybody. But he was looking and there's some love. He got the idea to go to Kirjivas and Bishop Anub on our rajas, they're also. Yes, we're so happy to have Rayamuni, the great saint. Rayamuni is such a personality who can travel around the rivers. In the Bhagavatam first Canto, there's a detailed story about his history. How he was born to a maid servant and then was working for some great gurus like the Vedantas. He used to get them. Mahavasyan used to hear from them the lecture in the Bhagavatam to get lyre to. He would also get other blessings. How his mother got bit by a stain, passed away so that he was all alone in the world of Niwa. But he kept remembering the mantras and teachings he got from his great spiritual masters. And he kept chanting. But he went after traveling in many places. He sent Allah and he was meditating and chanting. And this way he got the realization of Krishna. And then Krishna gave him a darshan, gave him an audience, and then disappeared. But after some time, only when he continued his meditation one day, something is like a lightning bolt. He changed his body. And now he had a spiritual body. He didn't like. You see that the body was no pain, no trauma, instantaneous vibration. So those who are following the path of bhakti don't have to go through spirit. So since that time, God only has kind of liberated Israel. But he stayed. Sometimes he goes wrong because he's liberated. He was not just like Christian. He's an angel. So he's our guardian angel at the simple succession, something like that. So he many teachings he gives and many things that are given. He flew over to see the householders. And that way, finally he went to the house of Bishop Bandumaraj. So then he also asked that you bless your children. So one by one, remaining children. And then he said, lord, other children. And they said, well, we have a blind girl, but there's kind of shy to show her to. So there they go, the baby girl. His eyes are closed and they came. Kirjanati went out and handed the baby right in the arm of Samadhi Narada Muni, Holy Radharani, who is not a baby form, but she is the personality of transcendental bliss. Transcendental placement. He's holding immediately gets stunned in ecstasy. Cameroon. He looks and he sees Radharani, even though she's just a little baby. Never sang back so beautiful his entire life. Anybody spiritual? Anyone? No one. So beautiful. And like for three hours he said, I don't know what to do. He's shaking and he can't talk. And Tears are pouring from his eyes and the parents don't know what to do. Then finally, after like three hours, he gets closer just like Good morning and blessing to Nanda. And you're very fortunate because your son this all has a respect of potency and blessings of Morayam. No, of course. Why is that a similar way? Father only gave a blessing that this you're very, very fortunate. You just take care of your daughter. She's your deity. She is blessed, she is blessing. She's all in with qualities of very important. His daughter very special. Very, very fortunate. And he went out into the forest and Marsana. So I'm very. She is also. She lives in a mountain, small mountain called Barsana. So sometimes she's also called Girija up here in the mountain. Well, that's also name of Harvard. That's also named. I want to see you as a yacht. 12:16 Focus of the mainland systems. So there are only places of licenses having compassion. These other gobis which are sty. I don't know how function you have received together mercy. And I gave some examples about there was some yogi who was meditating and doing tabasya. Heavy austerities and partnerships for three days of Ramasa. Rama gave so many examples of this great yogis, sages who on days of Rama were meditating. We want to impress on how her mercy is so valuable There someone was meditating. But they're only giving personal realization also they are meditating for a long time. So because Baliwani is. She is more known as Priyasakhi or the dearest friend of Krishna. So her appearance is also very, very calming. Superior stages. So many people observe. They don't know about Vagastami. Vadasthani was reading in the Mahatna. Vagrasmi is equal to that because she's so really Krishna that when you worship her on her parents day you get one message from Krishna too. First time from the Bhagavad mentions how there was a lady who was a kind of a moderate lady. She was traveling around the world. She was very wealthy, visiting different places. Not very strict in terms of her spiritual activities. She said certainly a little materialistic. You could say there's so many people traveling around the country. Somehow in her travels she ended up in this one city where she went to a temple. And there were so many ladies making dialects and decorating the temple Festoons. So many things. This time we have here some festival. India is the festival. There is so many kinds of festoons South India they use coconut leaves Bend them in a particular way and back down and use angle leaves bending what auspicious leaf is available. They use different knees and legs. Here in America they use tinsel or something. And so this lady said, what's happening? Sometimes you don't know. Whoever observes this festival. Why don't you stay with us and help us sound so good? Whoever wants to all have mercy on us. How many forced up to your free will? How much mercy? The Morgan dancer All is asleep based those who are like practicing fully for some people. If I practice every day that I serve the super ladies these days if you observe especially when we are not for the vat of the Dharma. Dharma is coming up. So this lady stayed and then she was helping with all the preparations and decorations. So now God asked him he also to and there are many things that one can do some scaras for a lot of you can do classes. So she stayed and watched all this festivities for she only next to the holidays trash and Shambhal. It's so tough. You have to do the hospital. You have to also take so much austerity. Then the ready very simple. But it's very powerful. You can't underestimate how much mercy. So this lady that's really all she did is she participated with her last time and she would not when she died. God sometimes came to take her. All the sinful things she has done through her life. They should move us here and say no, you can't take her. So why not? She's a materialistic lady traveling around. And there was a bit of a discussion between the Karamadukas who are messengers of the judge Camaraj the judges. Everybody is crying judgment at the end of everybody's life. And those who are simple in broken Raj they have a rehabilitation center. You can get frequent flyer points. Nobody wants to channel them. Then we have additional Buddhists who are especially representing Krishna within his day to them. So people and give them a good go so they will stop this. So a little bit of service to Nalaron should really participate in Bhagavan. So many bhaktas. There's so many glories. So many wonderful benefits. So when Moser did this better I do this the worshipper. This is how all people are offensive in the time so like this arise other Ganesha is going to be the fourth is the third. So that's only. That's Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday you can come as you're working with any fasting optimum. These are mental worship is also the mercy incarnation. So when we Say Krishna. We say Sri Krishna Rahe Krishna first vow the Vrasi. So you can say Sitaram watching the rain Tibetan likes to go there's an answer to the moon. Just like Krishna has the original personality. So many expansions of personality of transmose Shakti comparison to other energies are manifested like the queens of Varga. So that means other things. What happened is that finally after there was a name giving ceremony for six months which is only three months. They decided to do the ceremony together for Krishna and mother Raneer. They kept the two babies together in the same crib. So then Krishna crawled over Ran Rani and looked at her face Radharani, this is a little baby. She can smile Krishna. She can sense the Krishna fair. When she most Krishna's rhythm. She always very beautiful place. After Goku Regra and different places I go on safari take not only my disciples. But that's about 15 different spiritual meditative disciples. We have six to eight different gurus and sanyasi which are the witness. So different periods of time personalities. So one year we went after two nights there is this like a very narrow pass. The group you just have to pass through that narrow passage where between these two hills. And Krishna would have a lot of this power going into small extract. And on the other side of the Chitung path. The narrow path is Chetsumi village which is the village of Chitra baby. And there is a Krishna sutra and the Surrey place. The and there is also a temple called Further and up on the hillside There's a temple called Mayuri Temple. Peacock or Nihen says that there was once a past hiding and there was a peacock dancing. And right around him over Israel watching the peacock was dancing very beautifully. Krishna he said, why nobody's watching me? Why are you all watching the peacock? I said, well, how do I see what that meant? You can dance rather than the pika. I will watch you. So then Krishna went and he started dancing with the Tika. And Krishna came and asked Aravana how was it? She said it's all right, but I still think the pikas. So then he went. He danced better than he did the previous time. And then came back and asked him well, even better still looking back. So then this time he should really superman. And his dancing was so beautiful. That narrative is his. He was dancing like Pika. She stood up and she danced at the tn. The two of them were dancing at more and the side of the backside of our son in Hilo and 400 years ago there was a blind devotee who heard this past Time he had a vision. So he drew a painting of Radhakrishta dancing like a peacock in the hand his bike. This is one of the most beautiful paintings around Krishna that we've ever seen. Painted by a blind person. Knowledge take photographs. The Gujaris are very watchful that you want to see Go. It's a very beautiful place in that day. It's also a place where Narayani was sold. She was given away and she was brought back. Between her. There's also the tent at Varsana temple. There's another temple built by war Rajasthan king. So here we are. Want to encourage everybody to remember our learning. Generally Bhagavad liked us to chant much to talk about Hare Krishna the more standard songs. But he said that I asked him like a little exceptional chanting. Some things were rather on me. And then for a little while normally our normal daily Kiriton program during the RITC I first experienced one time I was living in Guru Pucha and seeing and I wanted that I go like. So I wanted to encourage the devotees a chance in between I was saying Hare Krishna. Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare. One of the boys chain lavas and said Volo, Volo Very Volo Chain Lovely. Loudly Chin Adi Ram. So two or three times I did that. One step is to start to become like. Don't add any more new words in the mantra other days. Okay.
