Description of Holy Navadvīpa-dhāma || Śrī Māyāpur, India #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

This YouTube transcript is a spiritual lecture by Jaya Pataka Swami recounting pastimes of Lord Chaitanya and his associates in Navadvīpa-dhāma. It narrates episodes involving devotees such as Sivas and Pundarika Vidyanidhi (Kundarinidi), illustrating intense devotional ecstasy (kirtan, tears, fainting) and prioritizing service to Lord Chaitanya over social/familial norms. The speaker also intersperses contemporary travel notes (safaris to Bangladesh and South India) and practical guidance for devotees.
Well, today we were at Srivas Angad. Normally you go to the Parikrama, you go to Amtadwi first and then they go to the last. Because the way we synchronize with the Navat group, they go first. The disadvantage is most of the so many pastimes that happen to Lord Chaitanya both at Lord Chaitanya's birthplace and that the house of. When Lord Chaitanya started the Sankirta movement in Srivastakura's house mentioned that there are many envious problems who are not against Vaiav. So one of the there was a normal change of the guard. Snavadib was one of the largest cities in the kingdom. There were soldiers that changed their duties. So a ship pulled up and soldiers got out. Some Brahmins came over to Srivastapur. Shivas, it's all because of you. You and your crazy chanting of Hare Krishna has brought the kingdom's army down. In Astra they're going to arrest all the Hindus. They're going to create big problems for us. Russian translation over there, Serbian, Croatian translation here, Italian over here. Espanol, Aqui Espanol. What language is there? So then Shivas, he got worried. He locked himself up in his Puja room and he started to worship. He's offering all kinds of machine prayers. Protect us, the Hindus. Because of what I've done, I'm creating so much difficulty for everyone. And actually, because Sivas is such a sincere soul, English he taught everybody that talks something to him must be the truth, that someone would just speculate something, tell it like it was the truth, just to be nasty. It never crossed his mind that he would do such. He was a very simple soul. He believed these Brahmins, the Brahmins, they didn't know anything. They just were speculating. In fact, nothing was being planned by the king to harass the Hindus. But he was all freely and thought they knew something. He didn't go. The Lord Chaitanya came knocking on the door. Pow. Powder. Hello. Hello. Not like that, just practice. Shrimas. Shrimas. The Lord for who you I pray the Lord for whom you are worshipping, who you are offering worship to. The Lord is here. He's here. Open the door. I'm worshiping the sheath. I'm worshiping Vishnu. Opened the door. Dear Lord Caitanya was seated on his bed or I forget, on his bed or Vishnu's throne. But anyway he was with four hands. Shankar Chakra, Garpa form of Vishnu. He was Shivas was the way he paid his obeisances, my lord. Lord Chaitanya said there's nothing to worry about. I told you. Nobody can stop the Sankirtan movement. There's nothing to worry about. Why are you so afraid? So like this. Watch. Italian courage. Shivas. Nothing happened when Shiva's house. There were different pastimes. They were having only Rushkin. Not everyone was allowed. Guys. This was a no holds bar. Kirtan, Ashtra, Satika, Vikara. Eight ecstatic symptoms. Everything shown publicly. One day Lord Chaitanya, all his associates, they gathered together. They had a kirtan. Nice kirtan. Beautiful. Those are kirtans. Just a sample of a nice kirtan. Krishna. Krishna. Like that. The kirtan went up. But then after about 15, 20 minutes. Normally the Kirtan would take off. But this time it wasn't taking off. There was. Lord Chaitanya was complaining. I'm not feeling any ecstasy. I'm not feeling any ecstasy. Who of you is responsible? Do you? You know English? It's you. Taking Madranga with you. Mr. The Drunga man. Eric and the Lord. He was so humble. They all felt guilty. In the material world, if you're accused. I didn't do anything. Why are you blaming me? Who do you think I am? You know me. They get defensive, right? But here nobody was defensive. Everyone was defenseless. What did I do wrong? Oh my goodness. I'm so offensive. I must have done something wrong. Apologetic. Self incriminating. Shiva Sui looked in his house. Is there anybody in the house? He didn't see anybody. And they started three times again. Ram. I'm still not feeling any ecstasies. Because of Cartos. Somebody underneath the tacos. They're very small. Who of you is responsible? Why? I'm not feeling ecstasy. Mudrik. Welcome. What's up with you? I drop our disciples who are safari veterans. Right? Just give him a big hand. I'll be giving some association to the devotees at safari. Wonderful association. So who is it that's responsible for. I'm not getting ecstasy, said Lord Chetan. Shivas wet her out this time. There was one basket upside down. He looked under the basket. It was his mother in law. In Hindu society, mother in law is highly respected. She is called mother. What are you doing here? You're disturbing Lord Shaitan's kirtan. Grabbed her by the neck. Took her to the dying choreo. Watch it. And he said. Who was that? Said I don't know. You must know. I don't know. I don't recognize it. Does that look like your Mother in law. Shiva asked, why did you treat your mother in law like that? You know that you're supposed to treat your mother in law with respect. She's your elder. My dear Lord. My only interest is your pleasure. Your satisfaction. Somebody is disturbing your kirta. I don't know them. Your happiness is my priority. This is the gun of Shivas. What do you think of that mood, Maya? What's your realization? A beautiful, beautiful womb moon. What's beautiful about it? There's a higher principle. Normal social exchanges. So in spiritual life we have a different set of priorities. The material world. Be respectful to your mother in law. To your material relatives. That's the order of the day. And surely under normal conditions. Shivas was very respectful to all his relatives. Whatever became a conflict of interest. What's pleasing to Lord Chaitanya? What's for the interest of Ka? What's for the interest of his own family? Even if he's going to have to hear about it for the next however long. His priority was pleasing Lord Chittan. That's his special. But you see that. Last year I wanted to take the devotees on a trip safari to west to Bangladesh. But there was so much political disturbance that everybody advised me better not. So at the last minute you drink without touching. Give yourself a little breath. You can have practice sessions on safari. Huh? That guy doesn't come out the same. So last year we went instead to Karnataka. We went to Maharashtra, to Vittala. This year I was playing the world always. Every third year we go to Tambo, go to South India. But we haven't been for six years to Srirangam. And we haven't done for maybe 10, 12 years to Rameshwar. 21 pundits. And also the other, of course Tirubati. Besides the Blue Temple. So even though we went there last year. That's such a nice place that you don't want to miss it. So now Bhakti Purusha Tagswami beat me to the punch. And he wants to take out some kind of a program. Sufari to tour. Six day tour Bangladesh. Right now. It happens to me that it's very peaceful in Bangladesh. There's a caretaker government and the police are super strict. They're arresting all the political agitators. At least for now. It's too late to switch from South India to Bangladesh. We already got everything ready. Sometime we have to go. That was our first safaris. We were in Bangladesh. There. There's Shivas, Tapus, Dwight Go, Sais, Murari, Guptas, Maratham Das, Thakur, Mogadas Mogada Goswami. There's Ludam, Sanatana, Haridas Tagur. Anybody say that? I believe the chariots. Satchi Mata Jayala, Vishnu holy place is a really nice. We have more temples in Bangladesh than we have West Bengal. Three, four times over. They're like 24 temples. Only thing is, if you don't want your feet touched, you have to get swamp boots. They're very respectful to the Vaishnavas and Vaishnavas. I love to touch your feet. Literally, I got pushed over. Pastimes are going on Sri Lanka now. The kingdom of the Word Come. All the light showers, chanting and dancing. Nityananda Prabhu stayed at Sivas Thakur's house. He exhibited always the mood of a young boy. When he sat down to eat, he wouldn't feed himself. Acted like a dumb boy. Malini Shivas Pandit's wife would have to feed it. Open your mouth. Come on. Be a good boy. Then something happens. Lindya Nidhi from the naked. He was a very dear associate of Lord Chaitanya, of Lord Krishna. By Ka's arrangement, he appeared in the village of Chattan in East Bengal. He purified the lamp. The Lord appeared in Ramadan. When he could not find Kundrik Vidyanini there. He sighed heavily, feeling separation from him. One day, after ecstatic dancing, the Lord sat down and cried out. O my father. O Pundarig. O Pundari, my father. When will I be able to see you again? O so much affection was Lord Caitanya feeling for Punaika Devili. He revealed his intimate and social connection. Voic sibling. These pastimes, the devotees. They couldn't understand what was the importance of this native. Tears were pouring from his eyes. He continued to call again and again. They just thought Pundre was one of the names of Krishna. Like Pundre, Garsha, Lotus. Aye. But Punri could have and Vindhya Niri could have. Any explanations. No one could understand. This was a very confidential associate of the Lord. When the Lord came out of trance. For which associate of yours are you weeping for? Reveal to us who he is. When was he born? What does he do? Tell us, Lord. We may have good fortune to know him. You are fortunate because the Lord said. Because you want to know about it. His activities and character are most wonderful. The whole world can be purified simply by hearing his name. Kundalin. His ecstatic appearance is almost like an ordinary man. Nobody can understand. Sustained him. Recognize him as the pure devotee. He's A highly learned scholar Brahman. He strictly executed prescribed religious principles respected by everyone. But he always floats in an ocean of nectar, of love, of Ka. His body displays ecstatic symptoms like crying, quivering, fainting, etc. He doesn't go for ablutions to the Ganges who clears himself of sins like everyone else. Nor does he enter her waters. He avoids touching her with his feet. But he comes to see and pay respects to her every day. In the evening when the teeming crowds are all gone. He couldn't bear to see people misusing the Ganges, spitting on her. Go and see people using soap and things that not supposed to suds up them against. It's not an ordinary swimming bowl. Cleaning their mouth, washing their hair, dirty clothes. They preferred to go in the evening when no one was around. The other character said always drink Ganges water before worshiping the Lord. He wanted to give a lesson to all the puffed up scholars how great the Ganges really was. He sent Chakragram Chittagar. But soon he'll be coming Ravatv. He also has a house here. None of you will be able to recognize him. At first glance. You think he's an ordinary materialistic person. I'm very anxious to see him. So all of you must endeavor and pray to bring him here very quickly. Talking about Kundariki, the Lord got into an ecstatic trance. O my father Pundari. O my father Pundarik. He lamented loudly. For only he could recognize the greatness of such a pure Vaishnava. Only through his mercy can one know that wonderful unique position of our pure devotee. When the supreme Lord attracts a living entity, there is no way he can resist. So Pundaig Nidhi Didhi came to Navadin. He came with many disciples. Navadinp he remained incognito. And everyone thought the ordinary materialistic people thought he was a lavish materialist attached to a life of comfort and self enjoyment. With the exception of Mukunda, no 1 Mukunda and a brother Vasudev Datta knew about the intensity Alpundarik's love for God. Mukunda realized that he was in novelty. He didn't reveal to anybody who Khondri Benini was. Everybody thought he was just some materialistic guy. We're friends. They always were in each other's association. They said, listen carefully, Gnarha. A very great devotee has come to Navituda. You have been hankering for association of a pure Vaishnava. Today your desire will be fulfilled. Who wants association of pure Vaishnava. You can imagine how the dad harbor felt. Became excited happy calling out Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. He went to Pundit's house in Mukunda Prabhu. He offered his obeisances and respectfully seated. The genini inquired from Makunda, what is his name? What village does he come from? I can see his body is effulgent due to rendering devotional service to the Supreme Lord Richmond. Form and demeanor are extremely wonderful. He's my friend. His name is Garahar. He's very fortunate. He's always been detached from family life from his childhood. His external material identity is that he's the son of Brahman Madhav Mishra. But because he's totally absorbed in devotional service, he only associates with vaiavas. He is extremely dear to all the devotees. When he heard about you, he was anxious to meet you. Hearing the wonderful qualities of Viratar Pandit Vidyanidhi was very pleased to meet him. The great personality Sri Pondre Vijay Ki sat like a prince. His beautiful bed was made of wood covered with intricate brass and reddish stone inlay work. There were three tiers of ornamental overhangs made of glittering brocade strips. He was seated in a soft mattress covered with clean expensive sheets and silk pillows were placed under his back on either side of him. Many small large water pots sat within his reach. Shining brass plate with veto pan neatly prepared on it. Two large ornate mirrors hung on either side of him which he continually glanced into while smiling with lips reddened with chewing pa. He wore a sandalwood paste tilak mark on his forehead and his face was decorated with dots made with a mixture of sandalwood and perfume. As for his hair, it was well groomed and shining with delicately perfumed hair oil. Two persons stood behind him fanning him gently with long peacock feathers. In front of him there was a hammock nicely prepared. Because he followed a life of pure devotional service, he looked as charming as Cupid himself. Those did not know him would consider him to be a prince as everything about him and around him gave the impression that he was a man of easy and comfortable life given to pleasure. When Ganar Pandit saw these materialistic things, he became suspicious. He was very renowned soul from his early age. Naturally, some doubts regarding Kundari entered his heart and he thought, what sort of a Vaishnava is he surrounded by such finery and lavish living? Hearing about his devotional mood, I delivered great respect for this person. But now I'm seeing when it's slowly giving way to doubt and suspicion. Who is this? So luxurious jewels on his bed? Just think of it. A hammock perfume. Very materialistic. Makunda could understand the tension in Devantha's mind. He thought, let me reveal the real nature of Kundali divinity. By the mercy of Krishna, Devana was allowed to see everything. Nothing was left unknown. In a very sweet voice, Makunda began to sing a verse from Srimad Bharata about the glories of devotional service. Alas. How shall I take shelter of one more merciful than he who granted the position of a mother to that she demon Putana. Krishna. Krishna, you are so merciful. You have given Putana the witch, the she demon opposition as your mother just because she thinks some affection for you. So if a devotee really tries to give Sir Ka with affection then how merciful will he be? As soon as Pudrak Bhikini heard devotional service glories, he began to cry. Tears of ecstatic love swelled in his eyes, rolling down his face like the streams of the Ganges. Simultaneously, all the symptoms of ecstasy erupted in his body. All he ate at one time. Like an explosion, he wept, trembled, rolled, horrid, belated. I guess that shit roared. Fell on an unconscious state of ecstasy. Gaining consciousness, he said, speak, speak. Give me more glories of devotional service. Again he fell on the ground. He kicked everything that was around him. He was so anxious hearing devotional service glories knocking all the silver and golden pots and the all the different pillows, curtains. Everything started getting ripped up. Oil, swaying. I have been deprived of the Lord's association in this most merciful incarnation. He rolled around and crashed her down on the ground. Everyone was afraid he might break his bones. He trembled so violently that three persons were holding him down. But they couldn't hold him down. He kicked everything. His disciples stood there helplessly, unable to control them. The storm of ecstatic love was exploding and continued until finally it just stopped and he fell into an unconscious state of bliss. He laid down without breathing, stunned, totally submerged in an ocean of spiritual ecstasy. One verse of the Bhagavata. Amazed at what he witnessed, Karada began to worry. What inauspiciousness has overcome me to make me think in this offensive manner? He embraced Mukunda, drenched him with tears of love. Mukunda, you have acted like a true friend. You have shown me a pure, unalloyed devotee of the Lord. It would be difficult to find another pure Vaishnava like Him anywhere in the entire creation. One can be purified simply by observing his devotional attitude. When I saw the luxurious paraphernalia I was convinced he was just addicted to a pleasure of life and material life. He read my mind as the magnanimous soul revealed to me the unlimited extent of pondering Vigniti's love for God. But I have been so offensive. The extent of my offense can only be mitigated by your mercy. Be merciful to me. Purify my heart. All the devotees who have taken to the process of surrender have to take shelter of a guide under whose instructions they act. I did not have such an instructor. So I decided to take shelter of Pundit Vigniti and follow devotional service under his guidance. I know that I can counteract all my offenses to him by becoming his disciple. So Gadadhar Pundit revealed to Mukunda's desire to become the disciple of Bhanuk Vaninu. Bhanuk Vinidi was in a state of ecstatic coma for six hours. Gradually he returned to his normal state and sat down quietly. It was impossible for Guladhar to control the tears of joy he felt rolling profusely down his face, wetting his entire body. Vigyanini embraced Kannadhar Pandit holding him to his heart. Karnadhar was unable to sleep, overwhelmed by Pundari's ecstatic devotion. So Makunda told Kunegi that he had some doubts. Knew first when he saw everything. But now he wants to accept initiation from you. He's a renounced order. Renounced devotee. Although he's young, he's mature in his spiritual realization. Comes from a good family. He's always attached to the Ka. Please. He's a qualified person to be your disciple. You are qualified to guide him. It's a good thing. Tell me when he can get your initiation mantra. Your Diksha Mantra. So like this Hundrik accepted. He said that this person is like a precious gem. One takes the result of many lifetimes to find a disciple such as him. The coming 12th day of the waxing moon is auspicious. Come here and your plan will be successful. Mukunda Garahar went to meet Gaurachandra. He was happy to hear the news of Kundarik's arrival. During the night, without being seen by anyone, Gunrig left all his associates and came to the place of Lord Gorachandra. As soon as he saw the Lord, he fell down like a rock offering his obeisances to the Lord. He was overwhelmed with ecstatic trance. He Lay on the ground experiencing waves of joy he began with a weep saying O my dear Ka, you are my Lord and father. I am a great ascender. Please punish this wretch. O Lord. You have liberated everyone in the world Only I have been deprived of such Hearing his lamentation like began to cry Knowing him to be a great devotee Lord Chaitani got up and embraced Pundaring Kundalini he said O my father. Queen Pundali, finally I'm able to see you Today everyone, all the devotees begin to have the association of such Their eyes filled with tears. So wonderful was this scene. No pen can describe it In a loving embrace wetting him with tears Understanding how dear Lord Pundit was to the Lord rather devotees they all felt affection, respect and a sense of closeness with him. The Lord continued to hold poundary Vinidi very closely as if he wanted to merge with him. They were like statues. He held Vidyanini in his foes and raised they came out of trance. The name of said has been very merciful to me My desires. I have met a person of my heart's desire all begin to chant together Chanting this is the Lord has created him to distribute love of Godhead they all began to chant Hari Hari. Today is a special day A wonderful thing has happened. I woke up from my sleep and my eyes beheld the ocean of Godhead directly in person the ocean of love. O God became ecstatic he didn't notice anyone. Then he suddenly became aware of his external surroundings and began to pay his obeisances to the Lord Then he offered his obeisance to the Dwightacharya and he offered obeisance with all the other Lakshm. All the devotees are floating in waves of ecstasy Till the penpaling who himself is an ocean of above Godhead Only an extremely pious and fortunate but person is able to describe this marvelous sin. Radhar family took Visual B's permission to accept initiation for public dignity. Anar said, I could not understand the uncommon behavior of this great personality so I became disrespectful. Therefore, in order to cleanse myself of this sin I want to become his disciple and concern the is my spiritual master. He will examine me. Lord Ch said yes, perform it quickly. Do not have P formally accept initiation from who may be the living ocean of ecstatic loving devotion. What can I say about pondering community's wonderful qualities? He's so elevated he can become the Guru of G. What hears of this meeting between Yalad Harpan and will gradually experience the highest ecstasies of love of God Haribo and Lord Nature are my life and soul Vrindavindas offers my humble song at the Holy spirit Vishavanu who would like to see his birthplace in Java days Shamakund is there Radhe Kund Radhakrishna Gauranga Deeni workplace temple Within a few hundred meters is the temple of Vasudeva Dr. In fact if some foreign devotee like to be temple president, they're looking for one. Today we have a new initiate A special initiation ceremony. Bhrigu Pati and Chandra Chandrawali. Chandra Chandra Chandra daughter who was previously Sumuki is now Surya Mukhi Sundari is right here next to you. Give her a blessing. Any questions? See how humble Pudari Vijini is the greatest soul but he's so humble I am so fallen I have no love for Krishna. He's an ocean of love for Krishna but he's saying I have no love. How many of you have love for Krishna? How many of you feel be pride of not having love for Krishna? We have followed in the footsteps of Poundari rolling in the ground. I need love of Krishna to be so humble when they think we're so grieved. I was reading in the Samadhi temple of Bhakti Siddhanta Theresa Taqwa. Anyone who doesn't chant a lack of Hare Krishna Ma mantra in the morning the Lord won't accept any offerings from him. Struggling to get my 16 rounds auto stick at 64 in this case she's the first case. How much are you? Because don't show these very ecstatic moods with non devotees watching. Just start with ordinary ecstasy, not super confidential ecstasy. Chanting and dancing, rolling the ground, tears pouring out. Things basically wasn't showing when people watch him. So you can say this was a test of Shivas. Sometimes we can put through tests to show that we're really devoted, that we're really delicting. These things didn't happen. Who ignore the glories of Sri Lans. It's not just some attached householder. It's got its mother in law, all her relatives and a chance Hare Krishna on the side. Hare Krishna is his love life and soul. Serving Lord Caitanya as his top priority. He did his household did everything else. When something was conflicting with Lord Chaitanya's service then he loyalties lying with Lord Chaitanya not with his mundane social structure. Maybe it's not something we should imitate but this is who Shivas was. He wasn't following some kind of rule that he mechanically was following. This was just his heart. He did what he thought was pleasing the Lord Chaitanu. People were criticizing Lord Chaitanya. They were saying he's crazy. He got self conscious about showing his ecstasies before ordinary people that didn't understand then he was only chanting the form of confidential devotees. Just like we're not also supposed to show our ecstasies. Maybe not for the same reasons the Sahajiyas like this was the real thing. Karanha saw the real loving ecstasy and pondering in the hidden. When you read things like that then there are some bogus people. And they would put on a good show of ecstatic symptoms to win over disciples. Oh, such a great devotee. But it wasn't just imitation. So later it was prohibited to show their ecstasies. Because then other bogus people were imitating the same thing. Taking advantage of innocent people. Can't hear you. All I can hear is where there will be difficulty. Sounds like it. But it's sounds difficult. Until she can make her husband a devotee. You have to pray for your husband. Give him prasado sneak china read in his teeth. I know ladies whose husband was then against inviting her prayers giving him prashad. Even if you know him eventually he said, you know, I think Hare Krishna acts so bad. Let me go to the Namha program. Invite some rehashed couple secretly that they come over to the house and just be friends with him. But don't tell him that you invited just like they dropped him naturally all kinds of tricks to try to somehow make him more soft to devotional service. Remember the guru touched their feedback, said Sril Damadar. And I think it was Adwaita or Hitinanda Someone they would have faced off each trying to touch the feet of the other like two lions.
