#JayapatakaSwamiArchives 2002 || Malaysian Tour [Part - 1] #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

This transcript records a 2002 Malaysian devotional event and discourse focused on Krishna consciousness: speakers explain Ekadasi fasting (abstaining from grains, pulses, beans) and its spiritual benefits, recount scriptural stories (Krishna's dramatic appearance and exchanges at birth, Vedas hiding in the ocean, Padma Purana legend about a tithi with 100× merits), emphasize chanting the holy names and daily practice, and include temple inauguration/Janmashtami-style announcements and blessings. The tone is exhortatory, devotional, and instructional.

But still Lord Chaitanya, he followed this principle that anacondasi to get maximum spiritual benefit we shouldn't take the grains and the pulses and the beans. Then you get full benefit, no sin at all. So like this there are many little special arrangements made for people to get back to Ka. But some of them are a little bit picky. You have to know exactly how it works. Actually you don't have to know how it works, you just have to follow how it works. So it's better if you know how it works then you can follow it every time. I remember in the Qadasi book somewhere it says how there was a married couple and they were having an argument and they were so angry at each other that the whole night they were shouting at each other and arguing. And the whole day and the whole.
Night.
They didn't eat anything the whole day they didn't eat anything the whole night. They're too busy fighting with each other. Only the next morning after the sun rose, then they cooled down.
And then.
They had something to eat. It just so happened that there was a car sea. So they had somehow another fasted on a currency and they got the full blessing. So Prabhupada, you know how difficult it was for people in working people, active people to not take rice and grains in this active life. So he made it very. He actually Allah, every time he would have the devotees cook some fairly sumptuous Ekadasi style non grain prasadam for the devotees.
In fact in some temples it became known as a kadasi feast. Actually it's not a feast because non grains are very light and it does not very fully anyway it digests very fast. Often devotees, they don't have so many sabjis and salads and fruits. So it's one day when they get a lot of vegetables and fruits and things, a few roots they don't normally get. In the first canto she went Bhagavatam Srila Prabhupada explains how twice a month to observe that kind of diet, it's.
Very good for the health.
It allows the body to take a rest from digesting heavy food like grains. You can imagine for the whole world if everybody observed a cottasi you would have a big saving of grains and pulses which would help the world food supply. For most people today they're not even very worried about their spiritual well being and that's very unfortunate. So we're very happy as Bhakti's holiness. Bhakti Dikma Vinaisha Merringa Maharaj has pointed out how it's so glorious that all of you are here and you're active in your spiritual life. It's important that devotees put some investment in their spiritual development. It's like we sing that prayer.
In.
The morning, the Lord Chitania singing to all the sleeping soul. I don't remember all the words in Bengali exactly, but there's one verse that says you're spending all your day worrying about your body, decorating your body. You're very busy all day long caring for your body. But when it comes to your spiritual lives, why are you so lazy? Very lazy, right? You talk to the students. I'm so busy. I have to study for my exam, study for my, my.
I have no time to change.
Talk.
To the housewives as so much to.
Do with my children.
I have no time to chill, talk with the businessman. I'm so busy doing my busyness, making money. I have no time to change. So many people tell you they have no time to change. So it's very encouraging. We see so many devotees, housewives, students as well as businessmen and workers who are practicing Krishna consciousness. Somehow they make the time and they're.
Chanting.
Because they realized that just spending all the time for the body doesn't make any sense. We have to give some time for the eternal soul. And when the time of death comes, all the time we put behind the body is going to be finished.
By.
The time we've invested in chanting, in the reading and doing our spiritual practices.
That is to our benefit.
Sometimes you read in the Purana as people get taken the yamaloka and there's argument what to do with them. The people who are keeping all the accounts, they say, this person has done nothing spiritual their whole life. They should go into Kumpipak, they should go into Maharora. They should go into this hell and that hell.
They should be burned and turned and for us to suffer.
And then Yamaraj says no, because one day they did some spiritual activity.
Three days they had a vaishnav at.
Their house and they fed them prashad or they did a Ikarasi fast. They did something, they did escape the accountants. Because of that they'll be elevated or even sometimes saved. So that's why in Bhagavad Gita Krishna says that even a little practice of devotional service can save us from the greatest danger. So very fortunate. Prabhupada has given us devotional service and we're trying to give this good fortune to others. Actually, I'm very Happy today especially to see His Holiness Narashinga Maharaj because someone gave me bad news a wrong information that he was not properly informed about the festival and that he might not.
Be coming.
And I was thinking that how can that be? Because what would a national convention be without Narasinga Maharaj? He's giving so much mercy here to Malaysia giving us so much association especially during the national convention.
Now we have the official unveiling of the Sri Jagannath.
We had the ritual rituals in the morning time for the opening that's another provision and now we have the official inauguration this temple hall by distrusting the devotees and while this simple ritual is taking place we like to hear Haribos not yet. So now is the auspicious time.
Yeah Ram.
So this flag breaks as follows the International Society for Krishna and Darshan officially opened on August 31, 2002 mastery by his Holiness.
Ram. Ram. Ram. Ram. Ram Ram Sam Ra Sam It's.
Ram Sam.
Ra Sa K Sa Ra.
Shayomishtupad Paramaham Sacharya Swami Prabhupada Founder Acharya Pratista Javida.
Shia I go.
All glories to his Holiness Someone see the children in the front don't make coma Namaste Sati Samo Mahabad.
Foreman Today we're gathered here.
Together on the holy day of Krishna Janvasami the day that Lord Krishna or the night Lord Krishna appeared in this world.
It was Ashtali and Ray Dinam.
Astamitity 8th day of the waxing More that much moonlight is not much moonlight Therefore one of Krishna's names is Krishna.
Chandra.
Krishna Chandra Mundi live He starts.
Out like me Then we have.
The.
Krishna he appeared where did he appear? Did he appear in the lotus? Did he appear in the palace? Did he appear in a field? Did he appear in a jail? What does that mean? This whole material world is a chair so when the Lord comes in the material world he is coming anyway in a jail. This is a jail inside the jail.
In that.
That way when the Lord comes in a prison he is not a prisoner. You can open any person house.
So.
In this way the Lord he opens the doors of the prison house.
And.
He opens up the doors of the prison house of the mature world for all of you Krishna first appeared in a four handed form like Narayana with the conch lotus club and this Bhagavan.
Sri Krishna.
So Krishna opens our prison house door so he lets all of.
Us free.
Then if we keep on serving Krishna we remain free Krishna revealed.
That.
In previous Lives they were key. And Vasudeva they have prayed to Krishna to have a son like him. Since there's no one like him. Therefore he became their son for three births. Like when the president of the country comes and the king comes to the prison house. He's not a prisoner.
He can pardon people in the prison and free them.
That is a special power.
Minus Micronipata Sakti Krishna says in the.
Bhagavad Gita that he comes down into this material world to please his devotees.
Bhagavan Sri Krishna Bhagavad Bhagavan Sri Krishna.
The devotees won't be happy if anyone else comes other than Krishna.
Krishnari.
Krishna is coming here is to give us to make us attracted to him. Because if we are attracted to his chancellor of glories we won't have to take birth in him. When Krishna appeared in the prison house, he first appeared as Mariana form to show his parents that see as me the same supreme Lord who has come for the third time as your child.
There.
Mother Devaki she was afraid for Krishna to come and see you in this lion form and attack you. Better you take a baby for.
So.
Krishna said, you take me to Nanda Maharaj's house in Nandagram and there you My mother Yasoda has just given birth to a baby girl. You take the girl and bring you the boy.
Bhagavan Sri Krishna Puranar Then the Brahmapak.
Then Krishna he was taken as a small child over the Jamuda river to the house in the Chanda River.
Hamada advanced Kashnari.
That is such an amazing thing. When he was so frantic looking for Krishna. Then finally he got pushed by them the house of Nanda Maharaj Jisoda had given birth to a baby girl. But she had was sleeping. She was so tired from the childbirth. She didn't know if she had a boy or a girl. So like this Krishna was exchanged for the little baby girl and the baby girl was taken back to the prison house and given. So then Kamsa he didn't want to take any chances. Kamsa didn't want to take any chances. He picked the baby by the feet to smash the head against the rock. Took the form of Durga, became respectful. Because he was very respectful to Durga. But he was against this child is already born and he's somewhere else. So like this Krishna had a very dramatic appearance. Came in the prison house, came in this dark world and he made it light. We want all of you to lighten up your heart illuminate your heart. You know how to make light come inside your heart. Maybe you're thinking, no, it's a spiritual heart. Spiritual life. So you chant the holy names. I can't hear anybody. Anybody there or someone's right? Let me hear you. Rechanting his holy name brings the light of Krishna in our dark heart. We are able to listen to Krishna's name and experience Krishna. And he lights up our hearts. How many of you chant? How many want to start? Every day you get one of the beads in the shop.
One big one.
So this way by chanting every day, we take all the darkness out from our heart. It makes us peaceful and happy. I think here there's more people chanting Hare Krishna. Very large group of people chanting. So we're happy that everyone is chanting. And you introduce your friends, neighbors, family members also to chant every day.
In.
The ugly with a Matamati.
Like they did 5,000 years ago. We can't see him. We can see his Murti. We can see his picture. We don't see him walking around 5000 years ago he was walking and shaking hands and embracing the other devotees.
Yam.
Just like we can see his holiness. Because an absolute platform, seeing and hearing is not different. You can experience Ka with all of your senses. You can smell Ka through the prasadam flowers. You can touch the de performing Abhishek. You get to use your sense of touch. You can see Krishna with your eyes. I see a murti of Krishna Bhagavan.
Sri Krishna now Mehra.
And you can hear Krishna with your ear. So Srila Prabhupada came to Malaysia 31 years ago.
Mupati Prabhupada in the Malaysia Nati.
And he brought to us this message of Lord Sri Krishna. Take this message and become very special. In this way your life will be supplied. We hope the why you hear everyone who's already chanting. You'll get as many blessings as you can so that you can chant better. Those who are here, you can get the beads and learn how to chant and begin to chant every day. This way you can also hear the holy name. See the holy Lord. You can use all your senses in Krishna and this is an easier way to get Samadhi.
Krishna.
How many are having Krishna Devi or Krishna picture in your house in your altars. Okay. That's what we want. Krishna in every house, Krishna in every heart. We bring the Lord in the heart by chanting the holy names. The way we can have Krishna in the mind is by reading Srimad Bhagavad and hearing the Bhagavad Gita Happy Janmaster Day. And tomorrow is the appearance day of his divine grace. Happy Vyasa Puja or tomorrow Hayasha Janma.
Sami magic.
It.
Omagh.
Nama.
Krishna Bhutane.
Srimade.
Hare Krishna to their Holinesses Bhakti Prajananda and Sabi Maharaj, President of Iska Malaysia, who today is doing Nirjala Khanasi Mahabharat and His Holiness Bhakti Digna Vinachana Devaraj carried away there was also doing there.
Go.
So I'm the only one you can feed today to all the assembled devotees to our Mayapur Gurukul representatives.
To the.
Vaishnavis Vaishnavas Today being a courtesy, whatever spiritual activities you're doing, you're getting 100 times the benefit. That's a great blessing. That's a great blessing from the Lord on all of you. Because today is the day that Lord Vishnu, Lord Krishna likes very much. And the Padma Purana explains the history of this day, this Titi. There once there was a demon who was called Shankar Sura. And he had defeated all the Devas. So the Devas were all hiding in a cave in Mount Meru because if they would face the Shankar Chura, they'd be killed. The Shankar Surah was looking where the Dev was hiding, but he couldn't find. Then he thought, somehow I have to finish them off. Then he planned, let me go to Brahmaloka and there I will find the personified data and I will destroy the Vedas. When I destroy the Vedas, since all the Devatas are getting their potency from the Vedas, they will become powerless and they will die. He didn't translate my laugh. So this demon, he was going to Ramalo, the Persona 5 Vedas got information that he's coming. And just as he was entering, they escaped. So the Asura was chasing them and they were fleeing away. Then the son of five Vedas entered.
Into the water.
And the demons saw them entering into the water. What the Vedas did was they dissolved themselves in the water so that way.
They couldn't be found.
It's like if you put salt or you put sugar in the water, it's hard to get it out again, don't see it anymore.
So then.
The demon, he was looking one of these four Vedas hiding in the ocean. So ocean's very big place. So he's looking all over in different parts of the ocean to find it. The Devas seeing all this happen, said, here is our chance. Now the demon will be Busy looking for the Vedas. We can go to the side of the Samudra ocean of the Kira Samudra and pray for Vishnu's help. So when it was during the rainy season when Vishnu is sleeping, so they didn't want to wake him up in such a way that he'd be angry with them. So then they had an idea. Let's chant Hare Krishna. The Lord is very happy when his devotees chant Hare Krishna. So they all began to chant and dance. Varuna Bayou, Dev Agni, Dev Yamrats, all the different devas, they're all singing and dancing Hare Krishna.
Ha Ram.
So Lord, these two words woke up. And when he saw all the devas chanting and dancing, he was very, very, very, very, very, very. It's more than that. So happy. So he declared a blessing. He said that this titi, I'm so happy to see the devas chanting that on this day, on this titi, this lunar day, anyone, whatever spiritual practices they do, they'll get hundred times better that titi was. And he said whatever. And this month, whatever activities anyone does, they'll get 100 times the benefit.
And that month was the month of Dhammadara. So that's why in the month of.
Ramadar, we also have a special observances.
Of additional devotional service.
And via Nikodesi, we also do some extra chanting and hearing. So you know that this is the Bhakti Mandir, VM Mandir. And therefore they planned it like this so that they would have a Kadasi festival here at their temple.
So they.
Can get hundred times more bhakti.
So.
In fact.
I heard that because of this advantage over Akadisi, so many people were getting delivered that Yamaraj Yamalok became empty. And they were complaining that nobody, nobody is going to hell anymore. We have to do something because everybody is going back to Ghana. It's so easy. We need to make a more fair playing field. Do something so that we get some customers here in Yamaloka. So therefore, Lord Gracious is all right. In all the grains and pulses and beans, we'll put all the sins. So today, if anybody is any grains or beans or pulses, then they get all the sins are stored there. If they don't eat that food, then.
They get all the benefit.
How many of you are observing currency fast? No grains, beans or beans or pulses. Okay, so you're getting all the advantages. But those who are still eating grains, then better you learn how to kind of see, don't eat the grains and the beans because contains all the sins. Lord Chaitanya. He advised his mother that she should observe the courtesy fast. He thought it was very important. So he even told his own mother. We heard that the Brahmins, Jagannath Puri. They were not happy that Lord Chaitanya was observing in Kadase that day. Lord Chaitanya's devotees wouldn't eat the Jagannath rice prasadas.
