Narasiṁha Caturdaśī Class || Śrī Māyāpur, India #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

This is a spoken lecture (transcript) by Jaya Pataka Swami about the appearance and pastimes surrounding the birth of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. The speaker recounts narratives about Jagannath Mishra and Mother Sachi, celestial beings (Devas) pleading for Krishna-prema, the auspicious Gora Purnima festival and Ganges bathing, and the communal rejoicing at the newborn's golden form. The lecture then connects those pastimes to practical devotional instruction: how to purify the heart, perform nama-sankirtana, avoid offenses, and thereby make Chaitanya/Krishna appear in the devotee's heart. A short Q&A follows where the speaker reiterates cleaning the heart and chanting as the core practice.
In their household, Shagadav Misra was a poor prophet. He was rich and then very simple as far as the prabhenants were concerned. And he. But now things change. People just walk up to him. My dear Brahmin, I need to give you a donation. And then they started giving him things. Gold rings, clothing. Another experience like this Money was coming to him without any effort. It's like Lakshmi had come to his house. Everything had changed. So one day he was explaining this to Mother Sachi. Something has changed now in our house. Everything has become different. And Mother Sachi, she also said, well, I notice that there's some kind of celestial beings flying in the sky over me. And they're offering folded hands and prayers. Sometimes I got frightened at these boats. I didn't know I would change single prayer. Now when neighbors are only invisible to human beings. When the Devas realize they are being seen by Mother Sanchi start changing what's going on, how she sees us. They're running, flying away out of sight, out of distance, out of her vision. We're not supposed to be visible. How can she see us? These Vedas, they're offering very long prayers. In fact, there's many, many pages in the Chaitanya Bhagavad. The prayers of the demigods to Lord Chaitanya in the home where they analyze how there are many, many different incarnations who come in all the Yugas. But they give partial mercy, they give liberation, other benedictions. But to give the love of Krishna, that is very, very difficult. That is the most difficult thing to get. Only Lord Krishna himself gives out Lola Krishna. But even Lord Krishna doesn't give it out freely. He gives it out only to those who surrender to him. So the Devas, they were lamenting how they always miss out on getting this love for Krishna. But they were praying to Lord Chaitanya that this time in this incarnation. That they could get this priceless jewel. This invaluable gem of pure love for Krishna. We may take it very cheap. Krishnavakti. We don't realize how hard it is to get. Normally people are motivated to do religious things because of desire for more sense gratification. Or because they want to get liberated from all the suffering. Actually have a spontaneous desire to serve Krishna. To have a natural attraction to Ka. What to speak of, to even have a love for Ka The Gobis naturally have permission. Is something very, very special, Very rare. Price's most valuable jewel that there is. So they were praying for this blessing for Lord Chaitanya. They said, actually we don't want any material blessings. In fact, in the heavenly planets we already have too much sense gratification. We don't need any more of that. It's all about sense gratification that it's a big distraction. The only problems we face is sometimes we're attacked by demons who also want to enjoy their sensual patience by plundering it. Otherwise the biggest problem is we're so much distracted by the sense gratification that we don't try to get your Vishnu Bhakti. We don't try to get your devotion. We think that this material Sanskritification is very nice and we forget the real happiness. So this way we're cheating until nature is cheating, depriving us from the real happiness, the real ecstasy, the real bliss that we're really hoping for. Because material happiness even in heavenly quantities is not fully satisfied. This is very superficial compared to the reality happiness and the real experience of love for Krishna, which actually comes from the soul, from the Atma where all this material happiness is just the sensation in the external mind and senses. So therefore they fell at the feet of Lord Chaitanya Begna that in this incarnation. Please accept us as your devotees. Give us this mercy. You're going to be giving out the mercy freely to even the most fallen souls. Please, for your devotees, don't deprive us. We don't want to be the only ones who don't get the mercy. We should also feel so much anxiety being a human being, being born in such a place as the planet Earth. If we blow it, if we miss out and don't give Rishabh, in this lifetime we really have messed up our belly to a human form of life. What could be the greater wrong, what could be the greater misfortune than to be so close to having killed our Krishna and not getting selling out for some cheap sexualification or for some paltry position in the material world or for some kind of name or fame or anything that Maya can offer. Would be the worst misfortunes that we could endorse. So that they were. They were desperate. If we had only a little bit of that desperation. We take it so for granted, this Ka Consciousness which we got given to us. We can't even figure out how we would so fortunate. Simply Prabhupada made our fortune for us. He gave us his mercy directly to his representatives. Even we have no qualification. Maybe you are all qualified negative qualifications. Somehow I got disposition to be practicing Ka Consciousness. Even I'm not able to do it at all very well. Certainly we Want to not mess up. But like this. So many things were happening before the birth of mother Sachi's baby. Sachi Nandana. Check it out. Misra looking at his wife. You're a falchion. We are glowing in the dark. What's happening? Why your sword? Belgian. You're not the same up here. What's happened? Little thing. Of course they never really kind of figured it out. One day they had a surprise visitor to their house. Adoita Acharya came visiting. Adoya Acharya is the senior most Brahman of Babaji. And he's Brahman of Aishava. So coming to a humble young couple's house like Jagannath Mr. And Mother Sachi. They were very very honored. And they offered him a seat. And they bathed his feet and offered him an aarti. A normal thing you do for another senior Vihasta Ramana who comes to your house. So you want to respect. They offered him obeisances. Then they asked how he's so bless by the association of visit. I mean without Asakiti spontaneously coming to the house. How can we serve you? What is the cause of your coming? Was just looking at mother Sachi. He had something in his mind. Then he got up and he said. He took the hand of Jagannath Mishra. He said, I will tell you everything. One day. I will tell you everything. Now I cannot tell you. Then he walked seven times around. Mother Sachi jumped from father seven times around. There's another mantra but the same syllable. He walked. Why is he walking around my bike? What's going on here? What does this mean? I'm going to go. Sam. Can you tell me what's going on? I will tell you. It's due time. For now you do this one thing. You get some sandalwood paste. You get some nice scented oil. You rub it on the tummy of your wife over the baby. Then he left. What's going on here? Your wife. Well, they can take it. Obviously Snag worshiping me, mother. Such as must be my baby. Must be that we have a very special Sakur child. Who is going to do something very wonderful. Maybe a great, you know, poet or king. Special person. A great Brahmin. Trying to clear it up. Very great personality. Like this. So many things were happening then. That very special day was approaching. Today actually. But before that something else happened. Ten months had passed by. Because mother saw she can sing in the month of Ba in January. In 1406, second year. So she should bear her child in November. December. 10 months later. Nothing was happening. No labor pain, no sight. But she went to her father Neelamka Varga asked what's happening to the astrological chain? And he said that your child is going to be born late. Too bad we don't have such expert astrologers now. You know the doctors is too Caesarean now he nature, you can say no, the child will be born, should be born 13 months to be the completion of the pregnancy. Experienced doctors slightly you don't have these histologists in the modern hospital. So she was patiently waiting. And of course Diluma turned the word he could get a glimpse. Wow, this is a very special child. Then that thing here Gorham Purnima. When this particular God Purdima is see on the full moon we get lura eclipse sometimes. Of course, sometimes you get a solar eclipse also. But that's on the Amavasya side. On the Purnima side you get the full moon, you get the lunar eclipse. So the task in India is one named Allura or solar eclipse to take a holy bath. Just like Krishna went to Kurukshetra. After the Kuruksetra walk with a solar eclipse to bathe there in the Brahma Kunga. The Bankunga is still there. I don't know if you've seen it. It's a really beautiful, wonderful place that Krishna made there himself. That was a custom holy place that may be the water while the eclipse is crossing over that protects you from any kind of negative influence. And so at that time the whole Galadin went to the river. Hundreds of thousands or maybe millions, many hundreds of thousands of people all in the Ganges river chanting holy names. Usually they wouldn't chant the holy names because of a kind of a superstition that if you change the holy names you would take away from the potency of the holy name. You had to, because the holy name was so pure and you're impure. So you drain out the holy name. Because of speculation around they figured out that when you're in a Ganges, since the Ganges water is pure, so you're not going to be contaminating the holy name. So then you can chant. So all these hundreds of thousands of people were chanting Sam. So from the river there was this massive sound of Hari Borunda, Hare Krishna. And they reached the house of Shiva's top, Gurgaon's house. Not far from the dentist there is a house all the Vaishala. And they were so happy they said what? Who says eclipse is in our mission? This is the best day that we've ever seen. Everybody's chanting the holy name. What could be better? What could be more wonderful? The whole world is filled with the sound of the Hari Ma. So Lord Titania arranged this environment. He would appear in the midst of Hari Rama Sankirtan. Then when he appeared, everyone was chanting and describes that the whole world just naturally felt very, very happy. We hope that all of you today of the appearance of Lord Susania anniversary will also feel from your heart. Very, very, very epic. That the book that permeated the atmosphere everywhere people are just feeling so happy. Savida Thakur was the fuli sat before that side used to start dancing in ecstasy. She started dancing and got so ecstatic. Atreida was in Santi. But he also started dancing like this. And the people they start shouting louder and louder the holy names. Once Mother Sachi she got the child and her arms aside. Beautiful golden form of the Lord called her husband. He said, look at here is our son. Look how beautiful. The Jagannath bishop took his son and his head Already his hands are a child. Below me the Buddha bottom. All the miniature features are there three lines on his neck. Little miniature. Everything is very, very beautiful. Golden color tastes like the moon. And his hairs were standing on it. He was feeling so much ecstasy. So much. He felt so happy. He wanted to give charity to everyone. But he was very poor Brahman. What will he give? So in his life he was just giving charity to everyone. Gold, silver. His food was like that. Because Krishna blessed us with this beautiful child. So beautiful, so many wonderful father. So he was in this very standing mood of what's all Yabav. So we can understand that significant this Lord Purima makes the whole world happy. This one thing Lord Chaitanya's appearance was meant to do was to take away the suffering in the world and make everyone happy. Sometimes people ask the Hare Krishna devotees what are you doing for the people of the world? What could be a greater gift than to give the world happiness, peace, love. This is the things that the Lord Chaitanya at that time all the Daevas took the fort Villagers they visited the house of Mother Sachi. Like they were not a gift of sibling place. So many Brahmins from everyone. Mother Sachi said poor all these very beautiful Brahmin ladies coming in, bringing gifts. Blessing the baby with Kusa grants on the hand. Some Aksha guides with the tumang and different giving gifts. She said, so many beautiful prominent ladies. I never saw them before where they all came from. So the extraterrestrial residents of higher planets are coming down just to give. Just to give a direction of Lord Chaitanya. Supreme Lord Yoga Gita where the Lord touched came from the fourth dimension here to this dimension. Came from the spiritual dimension here to the visible. From Aprakanthila to Prakatvilla Unmanifest pastime to manifest fast time. So now everybody can see. But when they see he's covered by Yoga Maya and these Devas they knew this is the supreme Lord. This is the absolute truth come again in this world. So they're very anxious to see. Very anxious to get the association. What a better opportunity to come to touch the Lord. But he's a little vanished in the form of some motherly neighbor, Brahmin or giving. So they are also. So they're trying to get that varsity also. So like this. There was a big festival in the house of Jagannath. As soon as the word came, a beautiful baby was born. Musicians gathered outside playing music. Different professional reciters came and were reciting. So many people were coming to think that the normal kind of thing they were doing those things together. They want another can of Kripali. This way they get some donations. Go to the house of some pre hostages have a baby. But here was something different. Because these are all very special people just showing up. They had another higher bird. They were brought there by the super soul. And they all felt spontaneously motivated to glorify this newborn baby. Next day there was a big feast. Jagannathus tomorrow Jagannath Vista of peace Mother Sita Kakarati. Where's Bhakti Shulumara? Running out of birth. Sheila Takarani came. She was such a respectable lady. She wouldn't walk in the public. She would only travel carried by mirrors. Like you see. Maybe Egyptian police or something. That was the custom. Already high class Ravana ladies, queens, princesses, they were all mixed with the public. She was being carried and the Paliki with color covered with spot on the side. So then as he arrived at the house of Jagannath Misra Mother Satchi came down with her royal gift. Special tiger tooth combined the protection of the baby. Said a tiger tooth protects the baby. You see that when she gained the ideas of you. Then she had all kinds of like herbs, different scented, essential things she gave. She had some turmeric, some fuels, right? All auspicious things to take away any auspiciousness from the child to give a blessing. So it reminded me like when Christ appears, you have the three wise men coming and giving herbs and things like that the Christian Ramadan Christian tradition. So there was like that. It's about Henness that people are coming and giving these auspicious miracles to the lady Chaitanya Biswakara. So people heard the word spread very fast that Chagannath Mishra has a golden lady. Very beautiful golden lady. So many people wine to see. It was a very wonderful group at that time in Bhavati. And actually everyone was talking about his child. Ms. Sachinanda, Ms. Sachi Kumar, child of mother Sachi. So one other thing of course we were discussing when we were on our parikrama was we went to Chatgpt now Janamuni. He had dropped the Ganges. After some heartfelt worship and prayers of Bhagira Bhagir he red manifested the Ganga of his body. So she rerouted. She was rerouted away from channel and she came this side very close to Lord Caitanya's birthplace. So when she got next to Lord Caitanya's birthplace, she stopped flowing. Because it was this whole pastime must have happened very near to more Burningham because it was just a few days before Purima. So she stopped. Bhagi Maharaj, he's carving with his special mystical chariot which is digging a riverbed into the Bengal soil to make a pathway through the Ganga. He's digging and digging way back and forth. Ganji is famous for having a. A winding route which he's supposed to slow down the Ganshi which came from another planet. From just splashing everywhere, digging, digging. Looks back, you know, again no Ganges. What happens? So he retraces his steps there. He sees the Ganges water is there now. But she stopped. It's like there was a glass across. All kinds of surprises. And I thought it was going to be big. Yagya begin to come around the Sagar island. We go there and visit Sagar. See the ashram of the Vivamuni. Madhiwa saw this. Bhagi Maharashti was very obviously concerned. Now what happened now when again Jesus not coming. So he was praying to the Ganga. Please, why don't you come? So then the Ganga communicated with him that was in this place. Golden avatar. I'm waiting for the appearance anniversary of this golden avatar who appears Mekal Yuga. That means that Gora Purnima is holy before, during and after Lord Chaitanya's appearance. Even billions of years before. Purima was a holy day. Practice celebrating holy on this holy day. And she said, well, because Lord Chaitanya left on that day. Bishop Prema is Available here. So I want to wait to get the Grisha Prema. Then I'll go with you. How many? One Krishna prayer. So this Krishna Prema is there to the getting. She waited for the go Purima kiss. A blessing of Krishna Prema. And then she continued up to the saga with the Oshego. She went to the Lord family. So many things happened today. That's why we go to the Ganga to get some Bishop Rhema. That's how he made. But I pulled out due devotees and they were down. So I'm very careful. One person I gave initiation. I went to the Gan straight. My fourth initiation. Before putting my lip. There's only people those days in Garancy's pain was very high. And he was in the midst of many people. But he was drowning same I decided. And he was waiting inside. But somehow everybody is flashing and playing. Nobody is watching them. Right next to them someone is drowning. I drowned him. Somehow I got him and break him out. He said, Guru Babe. He saved me twice today. But I lost also two disciples. One disciple I lost. I was not there. And nobody else was able to say anyone. So I want to all be very careful. I don't know what happens. Maybe, maybe auspicious. But we want you to preach all over the world. Just give this mission a praise right here we need all the help we could get. So like this Krishna Deva variety is the greatest benefactor. Giving us what has never been given so freely before. Arrived in the Atlantic Temple. When he saw the gorilla Tibet. There, tears welled up in his eyes. He said could see how Mokhinanda so merciful. They had come to this distant place far away from Maya Podah. Such a distant forsaken place. Like Americas, we think. Here we're isolated. But this is the center of the universe. This is the place where the Lord touched the spiritual vision, the Vera vision, the interplanetary vision. This is the most important place. Maybe now the superpowers they come and go. A few years ago, Somalia was a superpower. Now it's just the power. Now America takes superpower. We have the Hawaiian power of something. Over 200 years ago, America was the place of the buffalo. But the real power is Satyana Maharaj told us power of mercy from the Lord. Any country can get there. Now you don't have to be us maturely. Just take that right and see the Lord. She's done speak for anyone. Here they are in America. Here they are in this place Atlanta. So be that present in that place. And then he thought in The Lord he sounded. Sing this. I don't have my voice to really finish today. I don't know if this sound the lording light and sing it. But he's got the song. The crest jewel amongst all the avatars. Even because Yoga Narasimha, the Singh and they taught praas. Actually yoga are sadhs. The different incarnations. Dharanaya taught how to do meditation. They're giving simply that the sweet part of the Prabhupada prepared it. Have a big feast with the bitter and the south cheese and the spinaches and all the different preparations. At the end of a Bengali menu you have the sweet. So in the sweets first. Ready for the sweets. My Gujarati strapped to wade in the cold freezing waters of the Ganges. A new heaven of difficult austerities. Heavy fire dragons or something. Simply chant Hare Visha. We're so grateful for his life. Satching on our eyes this year. Heaping up the chanting. There's so many different activities. I hope many people took advantage sometimes of this chanting. We took a little bit on a safari during the gbcba. We're very thankful for His Holiness. He's come out fish to go. Swami who got everyone last year engaged in enchanting the holy name. I remember that drained us presence here. The Lord Purim sometimes he engages with devotees and chanting all day long. The whole day from morning to night. Kirk Two different doctors would take a time 1 hour 10 to 11. And they would come and they would chant. And by rotation they would keep the chanting all day long until after the abishet. So the whole day. Some were believing all night. But it was more special. I wanted everyone to be chanting out of kirtan. Especially on this holy occasion. Bilajan Vasmi read the Krishna book from beginning to end. As one of our brothers, we don't have a Chaitanya book. Blessedly I'd like to write such a book for my purification. Combining all the different leelas of all the books. Very, very happy day. Chanting the holy name day when we can get a reflect our voic Chitanya very easily. And just like when Moxitania was actually made, he was made by the ladies and men both. Of course, because we are so here. We also have ladies bathing work Chintangya. We have men bathing work Chintangya. We have wat for donor is a nisty husband and wife can go and bathe together financially. So we have three different bathing opportunities. Everybody can use the Rabi shake your conch shell or goat or whatever it is to do the bathing the one department up to the nighttime with 570 left. Really wonderful. The light is only wear for the morning special Seva. So much happened to the Seva. Chanting, hearing, leading baby distributing Prasada here, assisting Jaya. He said, why bring us in prasada? They weren't fasting. But Prabhupada said, look, there was many people who don't fast. You're going to eat some karmi foods or some boga, whatever you eat masala. Those who are fasting of fast, they're not ready. The people who eat them also they're not fasting. So give them a salad. And for tomorrow, of course, even the devotees devotees fast and we buy the feast. So like this. This is a rejoicing thing. Just like Jagannath Misra. He was feeding everyone so he could help Jagannath Misra, the name of Jagannath Mishra feeding all the people. So Bhakti Chilmra supposed to be here already. He sent a message 15 minutes ago. He'll be here in 10 minutes and told him to come and apply. Maybe there's some questions or some other comments. Some of the other. Let's just speak with you. So while he takes his three minutes to get over here to the tab. Any questions? Thank you very much for this lecture. I have a question. Since quite some time we have the concept that Lord Krishna can appear in the form of his holy name, in the form of a lady. Could you talk maybe on this particular day a little bit how to. To appear in the heart of a devotee? I think we as Vaishnavas hold a strong opinion that the law has appeared obviously with sleep for, let us say for just 517 years ago. But he can also appear in the mind or the heart of the devotee. If that heart is made a charm, a holy place. But he said that this is possible in terms of Krishna. So you are expert on Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Please tell us how we can make Chaitanya Mahaprabhu appear in our lives of the movement and so on. I think there are many experts about Chaitanya. I don't have any expertise, but I just like to remember what Chaitanya and to speak so best. So much more unlimited to go on. We know that the process of devotional service is to make a sitting place with our heart. To make a bonus an altar to receive the Lord in our heart. Begin to do a little thingy. We can see what Lord Chitanya did in the and in that purport. Your answer is Revealed by Shabbati Saddam Husserl Thakur who quoted a gigantic purport in his lady six pages of Mark and where he explains that what Chitanya did to clean the Gumitza temples that we should do to clean our hearts so that we can receive a word in our temple of our heart. And we know there's one song by Kinilo Thakur composed also. This means when we enchant their holy name, they dance in our mind. Someone told me what is this Uteno Ranga Naksharama home they say, what is this Mormon thing? I thought I was talking about the Mormon is not showing Abar Monk my mind. He's dancing in my mind. We make our life like a temple. We make by chanting the names with the most purifying thing. Avoiding all the envious things. Avoiding the envy, anger and other Vaishnavas. Avoiding the offenses. Here's one of the most. The devotee I find so nice, so much saints by sham etiquette. Always avoiding the Vaishnava apparatus. Very gentle and kind. His Holiness Bhakti Chura Maharaj. We need to clean our heart like a leave to follow in the footsteps of thanksgiving. Wonderful devotees that we can be free from any kind of dirt in our heart. So we can help. So we know that actually our heart. I mean my heart is so fire like bulldozers using just the brooms in there. I need bulldozers to get out of the dirt and linear. And there's a crane and all of a moving the garbage like this is a kind of urban rebuilding and gaining the beaches. They put all the earth. So much garbage is there for this life. With so many millions of lives. Somehow Lord Chaitanya is so merciful that by his unlimited mercy as we just somehow humbly clean our Florida state. Even though we have all this garbage, somehow we can bless our that this heart becomes. You will sit there and make it all pure. That's the special that Kripa is waiting for. But in the meantime, to show that I'm sincere, I'm trying to also do as much healing as I can. Although Brahma Vinati looked one time I was sitting there while all of us were there here in the temple. That time was in that temple. And he said that we know the soul is pure and we just have to clean the dirt off from it. And pure soul will be there. He said, sometimes I think that I'm rubbing a piece of coal. No matter how much I rub, more and more plaque is coming. I was in that group. Coal are rubbing somewhere we know that somewhere underneath is cold. There's some guidance there. Some pure atma is there. But we need to get that purified. So you can get purified by hearing the beautiful words from Islam is when I go to the Great Valley. Thank you for watching our videos.
