A recorded multi-speaker commentary on Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 2.10.43 (uploaded Oct 12, 2023) that uses the verse’s cloud metaphor to explain creation, maintenance, and annihilation of the material world. The speakers emphasize the temporary nature of material life, advocate devotional service (bhakti, sankirtana, regulated senses) as the path to eternal spiritual life, and include biographical anecdotes and teachings about prominent Vaishnava figures (Bhakti Vinod Thakur, Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur, Srila Prabhupada). The recording also notes a disappearance day observance and practical devotional activities (festivals, temple service).
Ban as the wind displaces the clouds. Translation of Petition Thereafter, thereafter, at the end of the millennium, the Lord himself, destroyer will annihilate. Annihilate the complete creation. Complete creation as the wind displaces the clouds, the partnership this creation is very appropriately compared to clouds. Clouds are created or situated in the sky, and when they are displaced, they remain in the same sky without manifestation. So when the whole creation is made by the supreme personality of God in His form of Brahma, it is maintained by him in the form of Vishnu, and it is destroyed by him in the form of Buddha or Shiva, all in due course. This creation, maintenance and destruction are nicely explained in the Bhagavad Gita. Verses 8, 90 the 20 as follows. Nasyatsum Ravi Nasyati the nature of the material world is that it is first created very nicely, then it develops very nicely. It stands for a great number of years, even beyond the calculation for the greatest mathematician. But after that it is again destroyed during the night of Rama.
Without any.
Resistance, and at the end of the.
Night of Brahma it is again manifested.
As a creation to follow the same principles of maintenance and destruction. The foolish conditioned soul who has taken this temporary world as a permanent settlement has to learn intelligently why such creation and destruction take place. The prudent actors in the material world are very enthusiastic in the creation of big enterprises, big houses, big empires, big industries, and so many big, big things out of the energy ingredients supplied by the material agent of the supreme Lord with such resources that have required the valuable energy that conditioned soul creates, satisfies his whims, but unwillingly has to depart from all his creations and enter into another phase of life to create again and again to give hope to such foolish conditions who waste the energy in this temporary and material world. The Lord gives information that there is another nature which is eternally existent without being occasionally created or destroyed, and that the conditioned soul can understand what he should do and how his dire energy may be utilized instead of wasting his energy and matter which is sure to be destroyed in due parts of the supreme will, in due parts by the supreme will, the conditioned soul should utilize his energy in the devotional service of the Lord so that he can be transferred to the other eternal nature where there is no birth, no death, no creation, no destruction, but permanent life instead, full of knowledge and unlimited bliss. The temporary creation is thus exhibited in the stripe is to give information to the conditioned soul who is attached to the temporary things. It is also meant to give him a chance of self realization and not for such gratification, which is the prime aim of all puritan actors. Thus ends about the swami translation of her poem in text 43, chapter 10, verse 43, very bold. So discussing about the creation and then about yesterday, about the maintenance.
The appearance.
Of different incarnations to reclaim conditioned souls, humans, non humans and many gods. This verse is discussing about destruction, annihilation, the atmosphere and the clouds. Some days you have a clear sky, then all of a sudden in the air there are clouds form. It becomes cloudy, partly climbing or gas rain, and then again sometimes there's fog. The sun comes and somehow everything gets evaporated. Everything gets all defined this side. So the example is at the sky clear. When you have clouds, it's clear. The maternal nature is like the clouds. It comes for a while and disappears. Comes for a while, disappears. Interesting how many times from his setback rooted the clouds mind by how you can think of the clouds. When you see that oh, this is a material world, nothing but a cloud, even just untidy. How about explains here Inhale. Annihilation is very important because we get so much attached to a temporary thing. Sometimes we can cut them free us at a new chance to understand the reality. If we just be able to hang on to the venue, respecting the rut. So by making everything temporary.
Always gives.
Us that chance to improve. Remember, some people are great, some people improve, but there's a lot of movement. Since it's not a perfect world, it's better that things don't last forever. If you get stuck in some horrible situation that lasts forever, it'll be pretty horrible, but like eternal damnation or something.
Some people.
Will not be so happy upon this temporary nature. Why does wish to create everything temporarily? It is traumatic. The prophet says it is also meant to give him a chance for self realization. We can realize that we're not just one. We're not part of the temporary original world. It's easier to realize that because everything's temporary. We have our temporary senses and we try to gratify the senses.
They're always demanding service.
So this becomes the goal of life is how to keep the senses happy. That's why in material life people are called Go Das, servants of the senses. Most times we keep our senses hand is always the man in Santa.
When we eat and we sleep and.
We live for the devotees, we have to also senses are very important. So what you try to do is regulate them by regulation, keep the things under control. A lot of people tonight trying to gratify their senses. What's amazing Is that Ka consciousness, the way Chaitanya Mahman presented it is so attractive that it is also gratifying to the temporary senses. Also beautiful, attractive music, dancing, the silence. Especially because it's all connected to Krishna. It's actually gratifying the spiritual senses as well. That's what awakens our spiritual desire to enter service. Mantras are very essential. With your senses you say Hare Ka with your senses, you look at the mere. With your senses. Everything is using the senses. Devotional service is a very sensual process. So we keep our senses engaged in Ka service that keeps them out of shovel. This idol man is the devils who worship idol senses. Without people missing a ka service, then they're going to do something else which will degrade us. So that is the secret of emotional service is that we are conjoined with the flow. The whole mature world is based on sense gratitude. Everybody's learning how to grasp likeness. And so that's already our tendency. That's our habit, that's our nature. So now what we do is we do the service to Ka, which is also very gratifying and evolving, tend to senses.
So many of our Dharmayasavya tries to.
Learn people in class. I think a lot of people had to go to the final day to set up for the tantra and get everything ready. So these festivals, they involve a lot of devotional service. Devotional service means with the senses and realize the feast of the feet. Make the feast. But that's also. I personally like doing that. He's more than hindrance.
But I find that the cooking time is very transcendentally. It's also very wonderful, very wonderful to be participating in the yagya of doing something for Krishna. Yeah, by Vishnu. So we make our whole life a sacrifice. Every breath we take, chanting Hare Ka, that is forever. Every action we do for Krishna that's eternal. Otherwise everything in this material world has.
A beginning and end.
What we do for Ka goes into our eternal vehicle. So Rudra is an important factor of the whole manifestation. But everything has its int. He is the ender. He's the evaluator. He's the story. He's the one that puts the curtains on the act. Time for a new act. Time for a new creation. If there's not destruction, there can't be creation. The tsunami hidden now so many beaches are destroyed and so many villages are so swept away. There was a big destruction.
And all.
The fields are not enough. International aim Rebuilding. Rebuilding is the creation. So we didn't have the destruction. We couldn't have the creation.
Now they'll build it better.
The designer of decided to be more tsunami proof because of experience. But something else will also happen. The earthquake happens right there. Anyway, they tried after the earthquake hit in Japan and I became expert at designing earthquakes.
Break proof buildings.
That's what they're supposed to have in San Francisco. But still sometimes the D with this material world, with this combination, begin to see it working. Creation, maintenance, destruction, recreation, maintenance. In the material activities we do, these three things also happen. But in Ka consciousness we just go on. Increasingly, even when we leave this body, we take out where we left off in the future birth and keep on growing and growing until we are qualified to go back to the spiritual world to serve Krishna. And even there, the growth continues. Radharani doesn't feel herself 10% Krishna conscious. She doesn't feel that she's that hundred percent love for Krishna. Healing improve. We're always trying to improve. This is the internal facet of spiritual life. Because we're always trying to improve things. The things need improvement. Shouldn't be a cause of frustration, just the fact of life. All these things can improve. They can't improve on what we do. If everything was perfect, you get bored. So there may not be the gross feelings in the spiritual world. But there's always this intent that I.
Want to love Krishna more.
I want to serve him better. I want to please him more. Pleasing someone is not something you can limit. You can always please someone more. You can always do something to make.
Them a little happier. Just love.
On. Our devotional service is always trying to improve things. Everyone who is doing service is appreciated. Today is also the disappearance day of survecting Samantha. He passed away December 23, 1936. And the Titi falls today. Titi, the lunar name shifts. So just a few days before he left the world, he spoke the following. We wish that this mass of our body, flesh and blood may be sacrificed at the altar of kitchen. The Samkirta movement Congregational chantings of the Holy Lamb of God propagated by Lord Shatamiya. We are not desirous of becoming a hero of work or a reformer of religion. But our reality may be identified with the caste of the Lord's feet of Sri Rupa and Ragunai. For that is our everything. The flow of the transcendental tide of the attraction of devotion will never be blocked. And you with all your energy shall devote yourself to fulfilling the desire of Shilabhai Vinod Thakur. There are many amongst you who are well qualified naval workers. We have no other desire in what's done it? Following in the footsteps of Rupert and Goswami and his association. This was a very big inspiration. The total inspiration for like the Siddhanta service of Uttarpur. He also just like Srila Prabhupada. You can see here. He wanted to fulfill the desires of the previous Acharyas. Bhakti ot desire is to clean Esther. Fulfill the desire of the previous.
Really? How?
Association is so important that association awakens devotional. Association with a third devotee, even for a short time awakens devotion. And when that devotion further develops into love. Then still association is the main thing that devotees do to further nurture their love for Ka. And to develop more and more in their Krishna consciousness. Even a moment I have only half a second association with the imperial devotee in Givwa Perfection. So we are hinging from the association with Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Kap. He's such a great soul. We would ask you the Prabhupada tell us something about life to Savannah sergeant. He would become a little sovereign and his wife.
Pain to vision.
To sense a devotee. Empower devotee from the spiritual world.
In order to preach.
A woman. But the little chakra didn't feel capable on his own. He wanted to heal. So he prayed Prabhupada dimensions Bhakti without Kakur. When he saw the condition of Sunnah Vaishnav all over the country. He also prayed to Lord Caitanya that you kindly send somebody from your personal staff. So that I can start this movement.
You see.
So by the grace of Lord Chaitanya as we pray. Gora is mercy representation of Lord Chaitanu. He appeared as the son of this Bhakti Vinod Thakur. At that time he was known as Kiranan Datta King Datta. And he appeared in 1867 as the child of Bhakti Vinod Thakur. The house is still preserved in Jagannath Puri at that time. Jagannath Puri? What? Did you know? Takara was magistrate of Jagannath Puri. The system of Jagannath Puri. The manager, the official manager is the district magistrate. So he was district magistrate in 1867. February Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur up here. And when he appear, here's. What is this called? The intestine Umbilical cord. Prabhupada foreign cord. What's it called? Umbilical embryo cord. That embryo cord was like this? Yes. That means Pravana from the beginning. So when he was a child he.
Appeared.
On February when Rath Yatra takes place. In July, September and March, April, May, June till the sun was six months old. The Rath Yatra festival was held. And by chance the big cart stopped in front of the house. Then the jumbling in the Dragonath car stops. Just like our car also stopped somewhere. We have some difficulty to push it again. It's nice. That also happens in Jagannath Puri. It was stopped and some people were Caitanya Mahabhu used to push with his head. It was wonderful. So anyway, the car stopped and the mother of our Guru Maharaj. The child Guru Maharaj. So she took the opportunity. And because she was manager's wife, so everyone respected with the child. So she put the child on the lake of Jagannath. And as there are so many garlands, one garland immediately fell on the child. Yes, Autophag. So this way Bhakti Minon Thakur could understand that this child is not ordinary child. And he knew that I prayed to Gorsantar to send me somebody. So this boy, this child is sent.
By him.
So he took care of him very carefully. And in this way his name was Bimla Mishan. Develop a sad doctor.
So like that special mercy Shakti.
Special form of mercy. Sent from the spiritual world to establish Chite Wahmabu's mission. Lord of Islam. The whole mission was that time hijacked by Sahajiyas. So he had to preach very boldly. Some may say well, he was a religious reformer. Some only saying that he was. He said what his real purpose was. Just to establish openings, just to satisfy. There was a letter he wrote just before he left the world to his disciples. And there he. I can't remember, but I can generally recognize that he wrote that you do not need pericrab. Because by doing that with the prayer Krama you can liberate the whole world. Bring people from everywhere to come and participate. Then he said, you published my shallow riches distributed. Then he said that you establish Brahmata where people gather together, chant, discuss the shastras in their homes. So in this way everybody come and worship. This is the holy that full circle. We know about the focus to do so the basis of.
In the letter.
He also did very clearly said that most of people get the books that convinced by the philosophy, organize them into Namadas Gallagher together at the holy vows. Gobardhana is also holding up this expansion of my upper Ramadan. Here's morning time. Here's Bhavanandan Krishnavala Sri Rani. So this is Also in the embassy of the Holy God. So coming here and if you circumambulate the temple, you're going to do a circumambulating Gobinda heart. How many times do you have to circumambulate two people? One. So seven times. Do the deities have to be open seven times around this? It won't go without breaker brain. He said he knows about Norman times expertise. So here we gather together also to glorify the attorneys associate with the devotees perform the Sankirta was a really great scholar. As a child he was like. He had like a formula, like getting a PhD when he was 11. He's that kind of genius. While he was chanting in 64 rows, he struggled chant 16. He chanted all his studies plus chanting 64. This should be inspiration for our young students who are 11 years old. Peter 64, 16. When he was 3 or 4 years old, he went to the dining room and ate one of the mangoes. And his father chastised him. This was bhoga. It was meant for Krishna. You took Krishna voga. You should have waited till it was prasadam. You did a very great offense. You took Krishna's mango before offering it to Krishna. It's a very great offense. The little child, 4 years old, took it so seriously that he vowed the rest of his life not to eat the right mango. You know, here, like we saw the mango trees this Queensland, this part of New South Wales. Can you imagine not eating a mango for the rest of your life? And that for an innocent mistake made. But he took it so seriously. I committed opera. I ate a bowl. I only know myself big of up to the alcohol. Krishna once he made the vow the rest of his life until he was 60, whatever. However old he was, he never took mango again. This is the kind of person it's like session. Very serious person, very sincere. He made a vow. That was it. He took green mango chutney. That was a lot too closely together. He would never take another very special person. Whenever somebody offered you a mango, he said, oh, I am an offender. I cannot take that. Prabhupada said the Bhaktiya. Siddhan Seth was a great astrologer. And he opened an astrological school when he was a young man. There are many big students that are still practicing his astrology. They're all students of my Guru Maharaj. There was a meeting in the Nirpur district. The subject matter of Ramanas and Vaishnava. So in that meeting, Bhaktivedantakur was invited at that time he was not in a very healthy condition, indisposed. So he asked Saraswati Thakur to go and speak there. So he spoke on the distinction between Brahmanas and Vaishnavas and he defeated Svayamanda Panditas. And the whole audience began to tape Tasha's lotus feet and Kashmir with water and drink it in this way when he was a young man. That book is also available in Bengali. Ramana Vaishnava Sah Bhakti Siddhanta Sarasi Thakur. He glorified the 12 qualities of the Brahman. So all the Brahmanas are very pleased. He's glorifying, glorifying the 12 wonderful qualities of the Brahmanas. Then after doing that, then he glorified the 13th quality of the Vaishnava which is Vivaishna of all the qualities of Brahmana. But one more quality which is pure devotion to Ka and how that is the most important thing and that's super excellent. And that makes the Vaishnavas better than the Brahmanas. If a Brahmana adds pure devotion, he becomes Vaishnava. So it's like he was so expert in the first of all. He presented such a nice. Everybody's like, wow, great. He's pro brother now you know, glorifies the Brahmanas and then Vaishnavas and they're all left like nothing for Satan. Everything he said, he backed it up with Shastra so expertly. The Pundits didn't have any weapons for defense.
Sav.
Respected Bhakti. We know Takwa as six shadows of 600 initiation from God. I was present with Prabhupada at this day in my book One year Prabhupada.
Was there.
And then at this point because the Bhakti Siddhartha Sadatapura was trying to fulfill the previous Acharya's desires. So Shiva Ramad said that I am.
Trying to develop.
See that the finish Acharya is the train of Bhavadi Da via Purda. Birthplace was discovered by Jagannathas Babaji that the Bhakti Naut Thakur developed the birthplace, begged Bordoram built the first temple, wrote the books about Nana Diparikra map.
And.
How Bhakti Siddhanta Sarasita developed the temples in Mayapur, develop some of the Tirta stance and have a deep down.
And.
The Prabhupada US and Singapore. And I'm also trained to do something here. Trying to build this temple, trying to develop my Buddha. And then he said, I'm very grateful for all the devotees for helping to develop my airport dialogue. And then Prabhupada needs to choke up. You can get a painting his arpathy. He choked up. He couldn't speak anymore and he just started to cry. Very rare to see problems. He's always been trying to control this on ecstasy. Thinking about all that. How dear it was to do this service for the Psycharis. How important it was. Then he took it. He just melted at the one point and they couldn't speak. And then after a while he just said forget. He continued to flash and said ch for a while. But just like we're always grateful because Australia has always a big part historically the development of my airport. This is the beginning that was really active in the gardens sponsored rules. That's why you got all the rules and reacting guest house desires to help the Prabhupada. Lakshmi says the secret of success devotional service is to please the previous Acharyasa. Prabhupada said we can build a big temple. A great big VIP guest to open it Bhakti no top or a person. They come down and take it back to Ghanaian. It will be a 30 story skyscraper temple reflecting it on taco. So this is like a bonus special mercy. Do something to please the previous Acharya with a cricket sixer, American baseball. It's called home run. This is special support. So here everything we do love the community. The more we can connect it in our mindset. This is replacing Prabhupada. This is replacing the Fiddhisacharyas. This is. They wanted to have a Varnasha community. They wanted to have a spiritual Vaishnava community tied more. The more we can consciously connect with pleasing the figures and chariots the more that it actually pleases them.
That.
Makes the whole benefit and the whole significance much more profound. These are personalities who are so dear to Ka. If they say deliver this and see that fallen soul there and struggling trying to please me. I want to give him love for God. You got it. You can chant do all I tea and ring every bell. Do all the things we don't know how long it's going to take to get love for God.
Not so easy.
One of these Acharyas just glances away and says I want to give you mercy.
Thank God.
And if you're trying to do something please, like to give on top of please, then naturally they're the same as the other child. They're very pleased with that. If so, Disappearance days are very special. Because on Disappearance day Is the day that we try to do things reminded more about like the legacy they left behind. Those uncompleted works, the things they wanted.
To do.
And the time was allotted. We are reading about Shiva today In the Bhagavatam. There is a time when the destruction comes in the life ends in this dimension, this sphere. But some of the things are uncomplete.
Prophet said he built the structure of the house to house the whole world. But he wants his followers to fill it in. He left us some work to do. Even though it said that the rest of the world for me to deliver. He's not even to ask him service to do. So every generation leads to more service to be done. We should try to do what we should do whatever we can, as much as we can to fulfill, to complete some of the incomplete tasks. The day that great soul went back to Nana, in this case he came from Krishna and now he's going back. So Prabhupada lets him know that his last anger untidy and early.
He wasn't happy.
And there was a lot of hiding amongst his. Degree of fighting amongst his followers, different things happenings. He wasn't so happy with the situation. So he does. But he asked us also to cooperate. We can show our love for him by our Samskaras following the footsteps of the six Goswamis Vaishnava communities who celebrate the Samskaras from their families. For us, the families are important on the basis of world communities.
Marriage.
Education, Samskara. Living up to the invitations. Sri Baba actually initiated something while he's very young. How old is Prabhupada? 12, 13. He said from 12. I forget they were not so many.
Of our 12 year olds.
Potentially if they were very serious, 10, 16 rounds and everything. First signing Mighty and during the pregnancy mother. All this preserving the culture. In this book, the great sages and the many gods being pleased, began to show us as the sea shores. It was the sound of wild waves. And above the city there were clouds in the sky which began to thunder by. There could be no rising of the full moon. In answer to this, it may be said that the Krishna appeared in the dynasty which is in the hierarchy of the moon. Therefore, although the moon was incomplete at night, the death of the launch appearance in the back throughout the day supreme personality, darkness. The wailing moon became full moon and jubilation. Unless there's some obvious contradiction that comes up after initiation. One willing to just generally mind asking questions to test, but rather is to learn the process. So these devotees Here I've been practicing for quite some time. And before that lesson 16 total or in addition to 11 years we have some kinds of chanting and is the chanting how long? 5 years. Prabhupada he was under shelter for 11 years not because he had an indulgence of spiritual master, but because he wanted to be completely like pure. Though he took initiation, he was never. But then someone advised Srila Prabhupada that if you don't get completely pure before.
Initiation, you get initiated in order to become pure.
You get to a certain point when you purely sure that you can follow, then you take the initiation and then you get further here. So this kind of significant. I see that the verse today reading is about Krishna's appearance of the sudden emphasis. So everybody's in the process of cleansing the heart after initiation also they're cleansing for us before it. Today is boxing day. So Maya will also give you some boxes to test you whether you're determined to. But it's part of the devotee follows.
Every day we do recite the 10 offenses which we meditate on how we can maintain and reinforce a proper and healthy relationship with the spiritual master. So when we look at this opportunity to serve a spiritual master with love, we see that these different rules and regulations can help us develop realization and envision. So in terms of meaning of initiation, it's like a contract has been formalized and a devotee is actually making a formal declaration of progressive relationship with the spiritual master. And for those who are taking Brahman initiation, that declaration also refers to is strengthened where the spiritual master is ready to in all conditions come and deliver the disciple.
What are the principles that you confirm? Our own vowels. Savi Shabanami Sa Satan.
