Śrī Jagannātha Ratha-yātrā Lecture #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

So I thought that I'd like to teach that to you. I need your help. There's a chorus that has to be responded to that's called Radha Krishna. Bo Bo Bolore Sabhai. Can you say that? Radha Krishna. Radha Krishna. Very good. Radha Krishna is Radha as the energy of all spiritual happiness. And Ka is the source of all happiness. And Bola Bolognese Swami, everybody sing their names. So this is a song. Lord Chaitanya used to go dancing and sing through Bengal with his associates. And there he would, through the singing, he would give spiritual enlightenment and wisdom to everyone. So this song gives a brief description of his teachings and what he was doing while singing and dancing through Bengal. The ideas to singing and dancing, which you see in a lot of beautiful songs and dances to give spiritual wisdom, to give an understanding of the universe, of the supreme absolute truth of our own existence and how we can achieve perfection in life. So this song begins. That means that Tiya this giving teachings throughout the whole of Bengal, throughout the holy Navarativ dam Gora Nithai were dancing and chanting the next song. I'll give you the translation first. It means you are floating in the ocean of material nature whereby the sign floating in the ocean of birth and death. You're getting dumped by the waves Today I don't see any big waves. But in the ocean of material life there's all kinds of unexpected waves. We just had a tsunami that flooded throughout Asia. Much of my area where I preach in Chennai, in Andhra Pradesh, in Malaysia, in Thailand, it was seriously affected. Let's put our prayer in for all the persons that are affected through this song that they can get saved. So this is the nature of this material world. As sudden waves come dunk us. We don't know what's going to happen. So this is what Lord Chetan is saying. Look, you're all happy now. But we're in this material world as the waves coming. So be careful. So Habu Jiva Krishna dies that all the living entities are the servants of Ka, the Supreme Lord. When we understand that, then there is no more cause for suffering. No more cause for unhappy, no more unhappiness anymore. The reason we're suffering is because our ego tells us that we are the Lord in everything. When we accept there's the supreme Lord, we're under his protection. So we are Ka's servants. And that's the way to get rid of all the suffering means no more suffering. Even all the nuns, all the visitors and new guests, they all chanted. It's a simple mantra. Change this mantra. You feel happy when we chant the name Kishta Bolove Jabe. When we chant the name of Ka Pula Kahabe means our hairs will stand out and in ecstasy. How many of you want ecstasy? Yes. So you chant name of Ka. Your hairs will stand that in an ecstasy. Chodabeyaki means your eyes will be filled with tears of love. And that's why I chant, said Lord Chaitanya. This is how I chant. Unfortunately, we don't have the same purity as Lord Chaitanya. So it may not immediately work. But we hope that works very quickly for you. And when you chant, your hairs will stand on end. And tears of love will come from your eyes. Sange means association. Come with us. Chen Radhakrishna. Chant Hare Ka. Come with us back to the spiritual world. Lead a happy life. Lead a spiritual life. Go back to the spiritual world at the end of life. This is the only thing I'm asking. Chant Harekishta. Come back to the spiritual world at end of life. Be happy. Be peaceful. Love Ka. Love everyone. This is the message. Last verse. Last verse. I know you want to see more dancing. Jaya Sakal Bipod. Victory. Jaya means victory. Jayasakal Biput. Victory over all the dangers of life. All the obstacles. Any of you ever face. Any danger in your life. Any obstacles. Overcome all the difficulties in your life. When you chant this holy name. Radhakrishna Hare Ka Jaan Sam. Thank you all very much for being here. Presence of Lord Jagannath Balade Subhadra. Our master. My beloved spiritual master. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. You know, he appeared in 1896 and now it's 2004. So that means 108 years. Numerology. 108 is the spiritual number. A spiritual number. Number signifies absolute truth. So the 108th anniversary for us is something very special. And he appeared in September. So we're going to go from September until next September. For the 108th anniversary. And we're very glad that you're here for this very special year. The 108th anniversary of Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada's appearance here in Bhairavan Bay for the Hare Krishna festival. So you know that he came with a message to the Australians. He came here many times to Australia. And he told the Australians that you're not Australian. He told the Americans you're not American. He told the Russians you're not Russian. What is this mysterious thing people say? What do you mean I'm not an Australian? I'M not a Russian, I'm not an American. Yes, because you're not the body. Your body may be Australian or American or Russian or Chinese or Indian, but you're not the body. You're the spiritual force, the living force that's in the body. Everybody has a spiritual living force, and that's what makes the body alive. When that spiritual force leaves the body, then the body becomes dead. We are that spiritual force. We need to know ourselves. We just know the covering. The body is only the covering. Somebody is skinny, some are fat, some are white, some are black, some are yellow. That's all the covering. But the spiritual force, the living force in the body, that is actually who we are. So the whole purpose of human life, you have more intelligence. If you try to tell a dog or a cat you're not the body. It's impossible to intellectualize with them. They're conditioned. But we have more intelligence. We can understand. We're not the body. We're the spirit force in the body. And that spiritual force is eternal. It's full of natural spiritual wisdom and knowledge, and it's eternally happy. Why aren't we happy? Why aren't we full of knowledge? Because we're identifying with the body now. We need to start to identify with our own spiritual self. Rise above the external ego to the real spiritual ego. And in this way, we can actually have peace with ourselves. We can actually be happy. So that's what we're trying to do, is that this chanting of Hare Krishna, it is a mantra that awakens our original spiritual consciousness. We start to see things from the higher platform, higher level, from the level of the spiritual living force. And that vision is what actually makes people stable and happy in life. And with that vision, then you can start to see the absolute truth. You can see the relative truth. You can see everything in the proper perspective. So we are very happy that you are here with us today. I know there's a lot of programs, so we hope that you do chant sometimes, whenever you feel a little anxiety. This is a free mantra. Some mantras I know you have to buy. It's $10,000 to get some mantra. This mantra, we're giving it free because if we were to charge you for it, it's so priceless, you couldn't even afford it. If we were to put. It says, if you put the value of this mantra and put all the gold in the world, all the diamonds in the world, all the pearls, all the platinum, all the whatever is valuable, you put it all over here on this side of the scale wouldn't equal the price of one Hare Kishta Mantra. This is such a valuable mantra and we're giving it to you freely. We're giving you the greatest gift whenever you want. When you're riding your car, in your bus, in your van or walking on the beach, anywhere, you can always chip. Hare Krishna. Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Hare.
