While drinking Chanamrata lot of it drops from pot unavoidably we happen to put our legs what should be our consciousness.
Should feel very bad. What is this nonsense? You see when the throw foot a teal up drop a drop. He was very careful. When you take a turn on anytime it's not inevitable. So he has to drop it. We can be careful if he drops it on the floor get he dropped and sits on. It's like earth eaters ignore ants and we ignore it. We know that there is a the holy Tritta of the Lord. We ignorant and we sit on it. So that's ignorance. We ignore it. So you shouldn't ignore it. We should be conscious. If he drop we should like to know we should avoid drowning. But he very carefully.
How does preaching Krishna consciousness helps devotee to advance his devotional service?
Which is the best way to chant? Is it true that mental chanting is best? Is that way or chanting in a subtle typhoon or rhyme Isn't that the best way.
Right?
Yes. He said no, it's not the best. Hundred times better is loud because you get other entities and insects and plants and humans they hear the holy name. So they get especially let face you from the offenses that you may have inadvertently committed. So by being clean from your senses. So in the same way the pitching directly were helping someone to the efficient answers. So by doing so we are also getting rid of the offenses that we may have permitted. So that way we're able to reverse very quickly. So this fishing to the conditioned souls is a very effective way of advancing quickly and devotional service. Somehow Prabhupada had the devotees are just sitting books and preaching even on the right hand. And they said well, why do we don't know how to answer the question? That's all right. They're asking to read this book. How many students think they read thousands of hours. If they don't read the book then they left the temple and they can talk with the son of the sin and writers who can answer any questions. But you saw he would engage the people in the I was thinking one girl was. I don't know boy or girl. They were crossing the street and they weren't watching. They hit that car tearing a stack of lava gums a dying instrument. We're very sad because one of our devotees from our Tirathak he he didn't know that from the prison on Purim he went out too far in the ocean and he was swept away by the current. So they entered the life intensity to a distance. Plus they were held again. So, you know, I forget his name. They thought he was a nice audience Christian. By reading, writing and holding down, I realized our dad was.
This question from Madhumati, N.Y. for devotees who have problem in chanting 16 rounds. So what Guru Maharaj inspect in this regard? For devotees who had problem in chanting 16 rounds. So have Guru Maharaj mistake in this regard?
Well, if they are ancient Dewaris, because initial devotees took a lot before the guru 16, then better than one day 16. One day 0. One day 16, one day 0. One day 8, one day 0. The chance on minimum of the game 8 12, whatever they can and gradually come back up to 10 16. Artists have no evil. Maybe I'm saying for round 812 you guys move up. But they should chance some minimum number of rounds. Some minimum number of rounds. They missed one day and they got say the minimum is eight. Just like you do 16 one day. Next you do 12 days together. 16 plus 430 minimum is eight is a eight. And this two is six. Next to the eight plus two is 10. And this side will develop some abstendness and regularity in the chain.
Next, how to avoid offenses to devotees.
So that's not offender. We should understand what is an offense and what is not an offense. Asking Prabhat where to see the brother of Bakish. And he asked a question. This question was spoken in intense language. There was a question. Now father said to ask the question. It's not on the fence. You're the right to ask the question. So he was asking a question. That was senior C. Probably talking. Maybe he was calling you Armed Tokyo or senior dance. And I like it like so this is how I talk to a senior. If they're talking to a senior or just subordinate, it's offensive. If we are refer to them by some name of mundane designation. Like their cast, their color, their subfazil trait. We should not. You should see all the Vaishnava as having transcendental bodies. Because the body is engaged in ka service. So we don't refer to anyone by their material designation. Child of body, the mineral of tongue, gut pain, blood pain and ocean of service. Means of faithfulness. Now, as a temple president has a job, a tool to sometimes give service or correct service to the audience. You have to do that in such a way that you don't go into some material hereditary people. Very strict, extraordinary. He would say once he was inspecting the toilets in management and one of the toilets the person had not washed bathroom. So he was saying Brahma is someone who leaves things clean. Wherever there's a Brahmana, there's plenty of. So all of you, you're here. This is dirty. So you're not Ramas. So. And he like he kept getting on the cave. I was there amongst them all our days. That as a wrong I probably already should have done. He just came up in his taxi from London. And he was a DVT man. And he came up and he was smiling. He's getting the chest size. I said, bravo. The trial laid in. You call yourself a drowner. What is this? This is dirty. You're here or this drowner is no dirt. He was like shocked. I just came. I don't know. Because when father was building instruction, it was anyone. It wasn't this time. He was doing it because it was something that he wanted us all to learn. There was an issue that. Okay, here is also your response. But in general, everyone do understand that as Devonians and foreigners, we should be clean and we should obey them. So this one guy shows up and starts smiling. It's a big joke. Getting chastised probably in the junk. So the jokers I knew anyway no one dared to smell. Because probably tense like that Harlow should I just hungry or ticket. He saw probably got away like that. He said, I'm an elder in him. I can do things that you can't do as younger. So we have to also know what our limit is. My son. The word might feel offended. It may not actually technically be an offense, but it may feel offended. I live in India now for almost 40 years. You get a chancellor if you do it in front of other people. They take a very sentiment. If you get prestige issue or whatever, you can draw on the site and talk to business. I expect a good idea. It seems like that questions will not figure out. But the living organic thing they have their sensibilities and sensitivities. You may have to deal with that. If you just totally blast someone, they get all depressed. It has a reverse effect, doesn't actually include them. So it's tried to better fitting our naive condemns that. So if we understand the word this person should do this thing. How to actually get that devotee to feel inspired to achieve that higher goal. That's what we should try to strive or try to do. Not just start, you know, you think before you speak. That's why the Lord of pens is think through you speak how I understand it. How is going to achieve what I want? Hare Krishna?
The souls are by nature active. How are we able to stay without any activity in the body of Maha Vishnu when there is no creation? The souls are by nature active. How are they able to stay without any activity in the body of Maha Vishnu when there is no creation?
It's your last chance to use verses. You see this question. The souls are put in a dormant state. The Sagittarius state in radius Maharishma. The bedtime ones night of Brahma and all the other souls are done. But he was from hanging. So that mentioned in the Bharat. He was not just. He was a literary soul. So. But otherwise out of the conditioned soul they are put in a dormant state. It's not a natural state, but it's being an existing dormant state. The Lord has that power to do so. He does that. If we are liberated and go to the Vaikunta Lokas, then we don't. We're not joined, we're always active. What is the condition souls then sometimes we don't.
Please say about my future spiritual and material life. Gopinath. Yes.
Continue to practice Krishna. Francis Smith. Your personal life will be very successful. I don't really hear that. I'll visit though. I see the picture the Parisi Arnold and this ordinary helplessness to serve Krishna as a guru I take care of bodies. But in general everybody has their karma. So whatever your karma is by doing your service of Ka that karma can improve. But that doesn't mean that you won't get sound something that may happen. We think that whatever happened is less than what we really deserve. That if Krishna gave us what we really deserve, it would be much worse. So like that we take it by sading us we won't get any outside. You know, maybe we need a little suffering to remind us that this material world is a place of something. Last question.
Last question.
Take such a long time. Impersonists take such a long time to understand Krishnamuri by service. Understand. When we are doing preaching programs, especially to the older generation, it seems that they will never accept Krishna. So we feel that our preaching is perhaps a waste. When we preach to old people or people who already have fixed mindsets, it seems as if doing a program for them, speaking to them is a waste. Is it really so?
Well, a lot of people become to our programs. So we assume that those who come they are interested in our Krishna, that they are not in their supreme. And by telling them The Lord Krishna that they will bless the Some of them may be hard for my body, but some of them are. What do you call deaf ears. But you don't usually deal too much esoteric or too much confidential. I think you can tell lizard there are some that deserve voice. Otherwise I saw the other people. They also religion in this conscience. In fact, our Rashijim we are very young people and we are very old people. Here are a lot of old people who are Christian. Have you noticed that? Yes, it's not hard for we don't argue with them after Sometimes you see that they got some short circuit in their brain. So he engaged in efficient service and they get the benefit for that. But apart from that, the old person is. Am I lying? Something that they don't really know anymore. They want to know at least it's the last chance to help. If he can understand, then he could say that get it all on his neck where they left off and they'll be able to do our service. How many were teamed up? 31. 31. 31. 31. 35. 35.
35.
So 66 questions. Hallelujah. So, those who are here on the Internet, we welcome you. I'm here for first night and tonight I here for therapy here. And then probably I'll be going to Los Angeles. A change. Let's see.
