#JayapatakaSwamiArchives 20030119 || Pastimes with Russian Devotees [Part - 2] || RU

Under raining this one we're having very big festival folks. If they can't afford, they can get a free bonus already. It means Bhava means ecstasy, means to accept. Sometimes just to test you. Krishna or Maya may put some difficulty to see how determined you are, how much desire you have discernment. You have nothing else to do. But Sri Krishna is it for us to fear him? Or if he makes a tough and they're still serving and Ashevrishna he'll be more grateful. Sometimes the body one should always be very easy. We have to prepare also for death. Death is very difficult. Sometimes having some difficulty prepared it. Radi Sa Ram Nab Ram sadly requested me yesterday to give seminar on Bengali song. So I'm not a great singer but rather to go into more. We'll sing a little bit but it's. That's not the main part of it. The part of it is to more go into the philosophy that's being presented through the song. Okay. Because we were like. We were in the Grossinski festival and that's a folk music festival. Even when in the festival and everyone was playing on guitar and singing Russian folk song. So I had somebody was translating some of the songs for me. I was curious to know what they were singing. Some are more like philosophical. No, you have to be really. One person was saying when you're in. When the things look dark and the things look bad, remember that even though the wind is coming through the dark hole in the wall, that light is coming from the stars. Life isn't so bad. That's some, you know, basic idea. Chara classify my kakai ga philosophical reason below. But our charyas, they presented the highest philosophy through song and music. Some were meant to awaken people, some were meant to meditate on the glories of kaos. So many different kinds of songs are there. Some are combinations. Bengali is 60% Sanskrit but its grammar is very simple so it's easier to speak obviously Bengali they would say Sanskrit. There is the word Bengali on the edge of Sanskrit. But much of the beauty of Sanskrit is there also in Bengali. Bengali is very onomylopedic. It sounds like what it is. They say that Izin ones who cheat on the waitzotype who plays not it. It's like he's saying. So the drangas are making the sound and the judger. Judge. You know what a judge is? What is a judge? And it calls the sound of a judge. It's called a roll. Very thick, very deep. So many just like the Bengali word for this Motorboats in Mayapur are called Tuk Tuki because they make a sound. The language is like that. They use a lot of words that sound like what this is. Actually we're telling the people in the Rusinski festival that there are Bengali ballads. We also have folk songs, but they're written in Bengali language. So he's painting a picture here, but he did not talk about it. But you know, early in the morning, just when the sun is rising, just before sunrise, the sky is orange in color and the sun is just about to rise. That time the jewel of the twice born, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu with all his associates, they're wandering around, they're going around the different neighborhoods of Nadia chanting the holy name. They're playing on the Nidrangas which are making beautiful tatai tatai sounds. The judges are rolling and the bodies are swaying in love. The dancing but very smoothly swaying from one side to the next. And on their ankles they're having silver and brass, silver ankle belts. Silver and gold ankle belts. And those are making beautiful sounds. So at that time watching, tell me he would wear ankle belts. Not only the ladies are wearing ankle belts, but then men would also wear. How many ladies are wearing ankle belts? Even the ladies and I were. What's wrong? So much musical. All the walking was dancing. Everything was very musical, very beautiful. Mukanda, Madhava, Jada Bah. These are names of Krishna, Bolore, Borina, Bodhi. Fill your mouth, everyone chant these holy names. Fill your mouth with the holy names. Now it gets into the preaching. Now we sister sing this Al Harinam. At six in the morning in Calcutta, Prabhupada told us to chant these songs. This song at Jeev Jago early in the morning, just before and after sunrise in the city street. These songs are written in understandable Bengali. I mean if some a Bengali can understand what's being said here. So for them it's just like if they're singing Russian, English, any other language. And then you have the serotonin. You are just still remaining sleeping. But the night is over, so time to get up. So all night you are sleeping and all day you are decorating your body. If you launch your speedyard this dim or crush it, you got such a rare human form of life. Rare, difficult to achieve after getting this body. Nobody's thinking now what I should do with it this time. If you don't worship the son of Yasoda, you're really, really going to be embarrassed. You're going to really feel bad. You're going to feel ashamed how you wasted like some guy. He won a $500,000 lottery ticket. But then after four months he spent it all just having parties. Then he went to his friends and they all were ridiculing him. You should be ashamed. You had so much money. You just blew it. You have no brain. You're a useless, stupid, stupid guy. If you get human form of life, you can get liberated in this form of life. You can get love of Ka and you don't use it. Shouldn't it be ashamed? How you waste it is such a valuable opportunity. So while people are lying down in their beds, they're hearing us singing this song. If you don't worship Krishna, you're going to be really ashamed. You really wasted your human form of life, Sahil. This pretty big philosophy just for getting up from bed. So now the sun is rising. It's becoming daytime. And it's about days passing. I have to get going. I gotta get to work. I gotta get moving. So you become very busy. Why is it you're so busy not to waste your daytime for working? Then why is it that now you're so lazy that you don't worship the Lord of your heart? You don't worship Krishna. Means your real well wisher friend, Lord of your heart. You know that this life is temporary, right? Jeevana Aditya. This life is temporary. You know. It's filled with so many dangers. Comes from the word stem padam. Padam. Step by step. Then if you make a misstep. What happens if you make a misstep? You fall down, right? So that's called vipad. So what? The meaning of vipar is danger. So you know that this material life is filled with bipadas. Filled with dangers. Take shelter of the holy name very carefully. Tumi means you stay on your own work. Don't do your own occupation. That's not the problem. But you take shelter of the holy name. So this actually very profound philosophy by Kilino Thakur is presenting in this very simple, simple Bella. There's two more verses. Jeev. We're jeeves. We're the conditioned souls. We're the living entities. So in Bengali you put er on the M. G. There it becomes possessive like of the. For the. That this holy name which is so sweet. Madura. Madura comes from the word Madhura, honey. So this holy name comes to the universe from Golok Vrindavana. So this holy name came down from the spiritual world. In order to make all of our good our lives fortunate. Our hearts are covered with Ignorance. But the Holy Name comes like the rising sun and illuminates our heart, driving away all the ignorance. How many of you want to have the Holy name shining in your heart? This is a very appropriate metaphor he's using for the early morning. Sun. Sun rising. Krishnaam Sudha Korea Paan. Just drink it. Drinking. Don't chant the holy name, Drink it. Like how will you drink this honey? Decide to drink the nectar of the Holy name. It's not offered you. Otherwise I give you that. So. And if you do that, the Bhakti Bino Kakur says his heart will become fully. Fully. He'll just make him cry in happiness. So do we know that in this material universe there's 14 planetary systems from Brahmalok down to Patalog. What is eternal in this 14 planetaries? Holy name is the only thing in the entire 14 planetary system. That's. That's eternal name of Krishna. The things connected to Krishna, these are the only covenant things. Even Krishna. Actually. Then there's the Chim Jago part. That's more simple. Go Ra Sam Sa means wake up. Means wake up, sleeping soul. Wake up. Wake up. How long are you sleeping on the lamb of the witch? Maya Colle means the lap. And pisacha is which pisacha. So Maya here is compared to a witch. Because children may sleep very peacefully on the lap of their mother. Because mother loves them, Mother is caring for them. But what if you are sleeping on the lamb of our witch who wants to suck your blood, wants to do harm to you, doesn't want to help you, wants to hurt you. Should you be sleeping peacefully on her lap? What do you think? So that's the picture what Chaitanya is painting. Here we are sleeping on the lap of the witch. She wants to finish you off. Wake up. Chand Hare Ka. I came into this material world in order to get everybody to chant. To get everyone to worship Krishna. But instead you're all sleeping in ignorance. You are filled with ignorance. You forgot your eternal position. I came here from the spiritual world in order to deliver all of you. Where will you find a better friend given if you show through the wishes right as somebody. Just like recently there was nine miners who were stuck in a cave in a mine shaft in America because they got flooded with water. So for three days they were drilling and drilling, trying to make an escape for these people. They don't know if they're alive or not. Finally when they were able to reach that place, then they the people were still alive. So they were so happy that they could Be saved So like that. When we're here running in this material world, suffering birth and death. Lord Chaitanya has come to take us back. How you feel? All those minor. They said these people are our real friends. They saved us from this hellish condition. That's how we should feel. About what Chaitanya delivering us. That he's such a friend. We never find someone who's so real a friend as he is. Who's a better friend than I am. I'm coming to the living from this horrible life of maternal birth and death. Very powerful statements are being made here in this song. You can write songs in any language, any musical style. These songs were meant for preaching the people. People sing so many crazy songs like they don't mean anything. These songs are loaded with philosophy, Loaded with meaning. Loaded with sentiment. Next verse. Prabhupada quotes even in his books. And then she also Sa Sam Ram. I brought energy. Means I brought also the medicine. What medicine? Maya Rashi vari lahi. Maya Rashi varo lagi. The medicine to destroy the disease known as Maya. How many would like to have the Mayo disease destroyed? Few people here want this. How many like this disease? Maya. This is the main disease we have to deal with. And Lord Chitanya brought this medicine to cure this disease. How much do you have to pay for? Of course, once you get it, you feel so grateful that you got such a wonderful thing. You like to give everything for it. That's another thing. But you get the Holy Name free just for the asking. So why? They're not asking. Why did they? But you interviewed. But they didn't. Sad. The last verse. Always in Bengali songs, the author puts his name at the last verse. Falls at the feet of Lord Chaitanya. And he begs the Holy Name. And he got it. This word means like begging the Holy Name. He received it, he took it. And. I don't know. Whenever I hear that verse. It's just something so beautiful about it. He's saying here Lord Chaitanya is saying all these things about the Holy Name. The last verse, Bhakti Minotabra said. If I fell at the feet of the Lord Chaitanya. And I begged him for the Holy Name. And I got. What a wonderful thing I mean to get the Holy Name. So within that I. I knew some of these songs. When I give lectures in Bengali and Bengal. And sometimes I just give a singing lecture. Meaning that we just follow the song as a little lecture. A little singing. A little lecture. We're singing like that. Very good. For that as well. Yes. So we got all the first timers. They're all singing this. It's really at 500 people, not devotees all chanting this. To see the lighting was the way to see it. So giving these teachings, teachings that are bound to follow. Gornitai went all over Nadia. Nadia gained sovereignty. Nadia is like people. Nadia is a very popular name in this part of the world. So I tell you, I ask you how many people here have the name Nadia. So Nadia is also another name for another dwee. We had three Nadia. So Lord Chaitanya throughout Nadav, throughout Greater Navadi. Not just a town, the whole area is called Nadia. He was going from one place next dancing both here at Nithal. More. So this is a teaching. See the A A means this. This teachings. So this teachings are Maya means Maya. Maya is what you call Maya Bossing means you are sitting inside Maya, the ocean of Maya. So being inside this ocean of Maya, you are floating. Means eating. There's another meaning also that you are being forced to endure something. Kancho Habudu means that you are being dug into the water. You are forced to drink the water. You pushed under the water. This is the meaning of catch of this. Habudubu is another Bengali special word for drowning. Because when you're drowning, what sound do you make when you go under the water? So my dear brother, you're just getting drowned in this ocean of Maya. Mother of a brat. So it's not a place to be. That's not where you should be. Kish Jiva means living entity. Krishna Das, servant of Krishna. Sugar Krishna. I mean this language is so amazing. It's just a few words. You can. You can present such a beautiful topic. Edible fully all living entities and servants of Ka. If you believe in it, then you won't be sad anyone. No more suffering. This is the importance of being Ka conscious. To end all the suffering. We're suffering because we think we're in this body. And then we're forced to be dug in the ocean of illusion. But when we realize we're Krishna servant that we are free from that suffering. Chant the name of Radhakrishna. Eyes are filled with tears. Become ecstatic. So that's the next verb. Wa. So Pulak. Pulak means here standing at him. That's why I chant. That's what we'll talk about. I channel this way. So then the devotee doesn't want to go back to Krishna alone. So we ask everyone to go with us. The next verse ran the name Radhakrishna Sangay Cholo Sangi means along in our association. Come with us. This is our appeal. This is all we're asking for. J what does BP mean?
