And I would request now one of the peace leaders with the experiences that he had.
He had many instructions how to do it. One major on the disappearance day of Bhakti Siddhan Swast Thakur. He said, I took the instruction of my guru little seriously and try he is teaching us. And so Acharya means who teaches by himself at. And he said, I like that I could do it. But I am facing challenges and better late than never. I did tried my best facing so many again challenges, difficulties. And thus we see that he was successful. And he is telling and very emotional in an ecstasy or what shall I say. And you know, voice, choke, emotion. He said, you wonderful boys and girl from USA and some European you are.
B.
You.
Sent by our predecessors, our Acharya to help me. And now in 10 years ishkone has got a footing and to some extent.
At least.
Chaitan, Bapushti, prediction and Ishankalpa. But it is every town and village people will be chanting Ka's name, Krishna Satya, Mahasana, as I did. You also do the same. You also take the words of the spiritual master seriously and thus gain excitement differently disciples. And as a result, ISKCON is growing. And we know things also from our material vision. He said, I have great hope this will go on when I won't be present here. And Prabhupada has hope and which I find. Prabhupada explained that Samkalpa word. There is a word called SATA Samkalpa. What God says, definitely this will happen. What Chaitanu Mahapu said, this will definitely happen. And also pure devotee Bhakti Vinod Thakur. He desired many foreigners and he mentioned the name. And you see this is happening all in front of our eyes. He told many of his devotees in Mayapur, Nebalid, Mayapur. You will see, so many things will happen. And we are seeing what Prabhupada deserves. The temple is coming our understanding. And he said, you will see. I want people from all parts of the world will come here to see Vedic version of planetarium as a planetary system. And we see yesterday so many coming. We see every year so many coming. Bhogba said, whoever in ISKCON maybe they are the most fortunate person in the world. This is the movement which is telling people who is God and we are our relation with him and how to act and go back to God. He also faced so many difficulties. So one of the part which is very powerful is the prayer which we see everywhere the situation people are in the mode of Passion and ignorance.
Say.
They don't appreciate religious book Bhrupa sometimes say it is a cultural movement Buddhist like that and whatever Chaitanu Mah Putisar is happening Bhakti Buddha Tharupsha is happening and we Bhagpa's followers little before ago we just heard Mapu our Jayapataka Maharaj he is saying Bhabhupad Onugami Onugami means follow his instructions and his desire to fulfill and Baba's followers those who are here at least in ISKCON according to their capacity they are trying and it is though many challenges, differences, issues there is trying to fulfill and many things especially one field on frontier purpose desire if you can make educated people devotee then people will highly appreciate it is just equal to ordinary devotee thousand devotee making equal to and you find so many IITs students BTEC M Tech PhDs they are joining our movement coming forward appreciating Baba's books and devotees have been engaged as coming from this and this way the number is multiplying like anything cannot think of so seeing from that we can look we can have vision that excuse my English that future weeks on with how many difficulties challenges come looks bright Great because this will definitely happen One who sticks to it is gone don't leave they are most fortunate others In Bengali there is a saying means hearing from higher authority if we follow the instruction of Prabhupada and who is falling Just now Japan said Onugami following his instruction definitely will be successful to fulfil the desire of Pidya Acharya which Kabad gave to us and his followers these are trying their best to if possible as far as exactly what Prabhupada Seth can do Depending on time, place, circumstances some time have to adjust harmonize Oba said your love will be shown how much you cooperate with the authority Here is we can introspect are we doing? Everybody is watching no doubt from the spiritual world if we try our best to follow his instruction as far as possible at the same time honoring others not opinions Sadhu Sastra Guru anybody have care opinion what is the value? Actually ultimately Guru is one Guru Tatta what ka says he is repeating Minor issue you can ignore but the basic thing won't change. Kuba said Guru Kul is the future now it's gone Let us see how much we are trying to maintain standard spirit his quality so that we can please Prabhupada Jasapasada Bhagavad Prasad he will be pleased Definitely he is seeing how Much we are trying. One is qualitative aspect, one is quantitative also. We have to fulfill the desire of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Everybody will be chanting Hare Ka. So that is also been done with some Bhakti Vinuk Thakur's bath. As you see Bhakti Bharikar Namar. Just few days ago there are some district coming devotees are invited. I saw in that way what children of the at least good number we are seeing coming forward to chant Hare Ka and gradually coming up to the standard. They are tribe being brought like that. So this seems very good news and hope and inspiration. So failure is the pillar of success.
No doubt.
Definitely success is also pillar of success. Yes. Ladies gentlemen.
Hello.
So let us cooperate with the mood which will please Bhagpat and previous Acharya. If this is common, we can sacrifice many things to please Bhag and make.
A.
Wonderful Iskcon as ambition by Prabhupada will go back to the spiritual world again. You have got another Iskconpad expecting us this now today is a time for.

I have my businesses On a suspicious day of your Yasuja ceremony I was traveling with the TOBP collection team and had a chance to see ISKCON worldwide. Something that struck me when they were saying words to the effect whether they were anyway by their activities we can see what the great boon your disciples.
Are for the whole world.
I was especially like to hear that. I especially like to remember like in Calcutta Rainy park we had at that time devotees were staying there some Ant Paramacharis it looked like you know they were loitering around. It was Elapati Prabhu and who else was there at that time they didn't seem to be doing so much at all. But now many of them are taking sannyas and taking great to push the mission forward. And it's surprising now how they themselves have also become gurus thousands of disciples and showing how to execute Ka consciousness by by surrendering completely to the spiritual master's instructions. And we see how much Mahjir is in Srila Prabhupada's instructions inspiration for his young disciples how much they become dedicated to world world class preachers and travelers have thousands of disciples. I would have believed it from some Brahmacharis just seemingly hanging around in Albert. Not Albert er Rainy Park In Rainy park preaching step where they used to distribute books from all glory goes to Srila Prabhupada for creating such wonderful devotees witches a little bit of encouragement and planting the seed there they have grown into mature men dedicating their life to the mission and saving thousands and thousands of people with the message of Chaitanya Mahpur. I was very much inspired to see this My old brothers doing so much by your mercy. Srila Prabhupada Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hari Ram Hari Ram Ram Ram.

Dear devotees here in Mayapur, thank you very much for inspiring me with your enthusiasm and your eagerness to spread Lord Caitanya Mahprabhu's movement and Rla Prabhupada's movement throughout West Bengal and beyond the boundaries of India. In the mid month of November 1977 I was in Vrindavan. I was sent to chant for Rla Prabhupda and to get his association. In his final days around 11th November, RLA Prabhupada was visiting by one of his favorite Godbrothers Krishna Das Babaji, and Rla Prabhupada was also surrounded by many of his leading disciples. Tamal Krishna Maharaj, Satsarup Maharaj, Hamsaduta Maharaj. So many disciples were there, and Srila Prabhupada was being very, very candid. He was lying there, extremely weak, emaciated, simply living on little drops of orange juice. That's all that he could digest. And he was telling our Godbrothers, he was telling Krishna Das Babaji, he was saying, I'm lying here and all my adversaries around the world. Because at that time we were under heavy attack from the American press and other adversaries in America. And he was always also being criticized by some of these sadhus in India. And he said, they're wondering how this old man is lying here, but he's still beating on his drum. He's still playing his drum, and his drum is going all over the world. Rla Prabhupada's Briha Madanga kept beating and beating. And Rla Prabhupada was kind of chuckling when he said, said it. Many times. They would ask us, as Rla Prabhupada when he was traveling throughout the world, what will happen when you leave the planet? Wondering if iskcon would survive, Prabhupada said, I will never die. He would tell the television journalists, I will never die. So this Brihat Madanga of Rla Prabhupada is empowered by Lord Caitanya Mahprabhu. And it's going on for the next 10,000 years. Anyone who can put their consciousness in RLA Prabhupada's purports, anyone who just touches these Brihat Madanga, these books, these purports by Srila Prabhupada, their lives will change. And we see that Rla Prabhupada's movement is going on more and more. And the powerful desire of Caitanya Mahprabhu is being realized and manifested by the efforts of the great Acharyas, Rla Prabhupda, instructed by his spiritual master, Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur, and of course, the pioneer of Ka consciousness movement, Rla Bhaktivedakur. So I'm reflecting today on Rla Prabhupada's candid view that although so many adversaries are hoping that iskcon may stumble, of course they're stumbling, but we always get up and keep climbing that mountain to fulfill the desire of His Divine grace to drown all the inhabitants of this planet in Prema Bhakti Enchanting of the Holy Names Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Ram Hare Ram Ram Ram Hare Hare Srila Prabhupada all glories.

I would request all of you to raise your hand and chant Hare Krishna Mahamantra to welcome His Grace Tapan Mishra Prabhu Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.
Hare Krishna on this auspicious day of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada's appearance I like to offer something and Suchendiya Prabhu, we can do translation line by line. It will be easier so. O Srila Prabhupada, you personally suffer to see the suffering of the fallen conditioned souls. On this anniversary of your appearance we all seek your blessings to assist you in your mission. The ocean of mercy was previously held back by a dam but Lord Nithyananda personally cut a channel in it and thereby release the outpouring flood of pure ecstatic love of God. Lord Nithyananda's inundation of Prema was thus completely stopped by those known as Chathi Goshai. But then you personally came, O Master, to open the wide floodgates once again. Again you engulfed everyone in the deluge of pure divine love Even such a low, wretched, wretched, fallen and sinful soul as myself. Oh Srila Prabhupada, you personally suffer to see the suffering of the the fallen conditioned souls. On this day of your appearance we beg your mercy to engage in your mission. One who has taken birth in this land of Bharat Bhumi, India Bharat should first make his own life successful and then work for the benefit of all other people. This is the most significant message of Lord Chaitanya that you boldly preached every and now we seek your mercy that all of us can assist in this mission. Without Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's message being spread, there is only going to be confusion and upheaval in this world. The most magnanimous incarnation of Lord is Sri Krishna Chaitanya. Distributing the process of attaining love of God by chanting the holy names of Hare Krishna. Hare Krishna. Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. He thus blessed the entire universe. Our beloved master. Srila Prabhupada, you are the personification of the transcendence message of Lord Chaitanya. You are the distributor of that message to every town and village. Srila Prabhupada, you personally traveled all over the world and preached in faraway lands of the western countries the message of Sriman Mahaprabhu. You preached the pure philosophy of Lord Goranga in so many such a way that intelligent persons could understand. And you showed such great concern, O Divine Grace, in convincing all your adversaries. Lord Goranga used many tricks just to engage the conditioned souls in devotional service. And you, Divine Grace, have also understood how to use all those tricks perfectly well to engage all of us. Srila Prabhupada, you understood time, place and circumstance and utilized everything as a strategy for preaching. Although observing your activities with their very eyes, those who are still blind like the owls and other creatures of the night cannot see your true purpose. You preached again and again to everyone that Lord Chaitanya's method of devotional service is not performed in solitude. Just as the Lord delivered Jagayan Madhya out of his own causeless mercy. You explain to everyone that this same method of preaching work has to go on.
A part.
The world has now filled up with many Jagais and Madhais to deliver. Everyone is anxiously looking down the road waiting for Chaitanya Nithai to come to their rescue. If enthusiastic preaching activities take place in every direction then the people would be stirred up in blissful excitement. Your profound shouting would cause the demons and atheists to flee. And your narrations of Lord Chaitanya's message would fill the heart of the innocent souls. On this very auspicious day of your appearance, we all here gathered in Sheeta Mayapur seek your blessings. This world has been graced by many personalities who came forward to progress many causes. There are personalities who've come and assisted many people around the world to overcome their physical difficulties. Also many renowned personalities who have walked this earth and helped people with their mental anxieties and problems. And there are also personalities who have come and helped elevate consciousness around this world. To bring people up. But it can be said with certainty that no other personality has walked this earth who has helped people around the world in such numbers to raise their consciousness to Krishna consciousness as has been done by His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada. There is no other personality. There is no other personality. There is no other personality. On this auspicious day let's rejoice in the good fortune that we have received to be part of this mission. And let us take a vow.
That.
We will never ever leave the lotus feet of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada.
Konaldin Amra Srila Prabhupada Bhaktivedanta Sami Prabhupadir Sri Charon Chede Kwanodin Church that will.
Give up all desires towards Love Puja Pratishta that will surrender our complete self unadulterated to His Divine Grace service. United we stand, divided we fall and the only way we will get united is when we surrender all our desires and serve. Srila Prabhupada.
Is the founder Acharya Prabhupada Acharja.
He spread ISKCON all around the world and he is the very boat and ship which is going to give shelter to all of us to cross over this ocean of material existence. I close with the prayer that we can all again and again celebrate the joy of being part of this mission under the shelter of Srila Prabhupada. Thank you Hare Krishna.
Thank you so much Tapan Mishra Prabhu for such heartfelt prayers at the lotus feet and expressing your deep sentiments. We are running around 40 minutes behind our schedule. We have two more speakers to go and after that we will have a wonderful performance dance performance by the students of Bhaktivedanta National School. So I would request upcoming speakers to please stick to the allotted time. May I now invite. I would like to invite now His Grace Subakshana Prabhu to please come and it can be a short one.
Hare Krishna.
So dear Srila Prabhupada, we have learned.
From your instructions that we should always.
Try to keep devotees happy and satisfied and pleased.
So I will keep it very short.
To make our embassy happy and satisfied. In Caitanya Charitamrita Srila Prabhupda, you explain.
That for the seekers of the Absolute.
Truth it is very difficult to understand Lord Vishnu and those who properly understand Vishnu Tattva, they are very rare.
There's not many devotees. Devotees are rare.
Then even more difficult than Vishnu Tattva.
To understand His Shiva Tattva and we.
Practically see that there is many, many.
Misunderstanding of the exalted position of Lord Shiva. Furthermore, you explain that even more difficult than that is to understand a Guru Tattva.
So it is very, very difficult for.
Us to comprehend your exalted position, Srila Prabhupada. However, you explain that the absolute truth and the Guru reveals himself to someone who is sincerely engaged in this devotional service.
So on this very very auspicious day.
Srila Prabhupda, I pray at your lotus feet that you give your blessings to.
All the devotees of Sridharmapur that we.
Can be always engaged in your service.
And by doing so we will be able to understand your relationship with Lord.
Sri Krishna and make our lives successful.
In the material world. People say that life without money is useless. Srila Prabhupada, on this auspicious day I pray at your lotus feet that you.
Engage me in your service with love for your divine grace as my pay.
Thank you. Srila Prabhupada Hare Krishna Prakashi Tohaim Shila Prabhupad Apni Ashibat Karvanjan Amrapnar Krishna Apna Jbishudu Takataka Thai Akmatra Bolte.
Thank you so much. And next speaker is His Grace Madhav Hari Prabhu Murari Hari Prabhu I'm so sorry for this. His Grace Murari Hari Prabhu, if you are here, we request you to please come on the stage. So since His Grace Murari Hari Prabhu doesn't seem to be available as of now, so we would request His Grace Ramanipati Prabhu to kindly now invite the students of Bhaktivedanta National School for their wonderful dance performance. While that happens.
It.
While the students of Bhaktivedanta National School come onto the stage, let's chant one round of Hare Krishna Mahamantra for all of them. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Srila Prabhupada Vyasa puja Mahamahat Savaki Itai God Premadande On September 17, 1965, His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupda arrived in Boston, America on board the ship Jaladuta carrying within his heart the orders of his spiritual master to spread the teachings of R.

As he looked out upon Boston's bleak and dirty skyline, he could understand the difficulties of this sacred mission and felt Great compassion for these Godless people. Thus with perfect humility he composed this historic prayer praying for the deliverance of all fallen souls.

Savior Memorial Nama Om Bishnupadaya Krishna. Thank you for allowing me to say some realizations that I have had specific specifically in the last couple of years. Because time has passed me very quickly and I will try to say something that makes sense. And if any of you have any questions later, I will be more than happy to spend some time with you. I cannot properly explain how I feel about Rla Prabhupda but I will. I have prepared something that may make sense for you. This will take a long time. My new realization is that RLA Prabhupda has never left me. Although I have committed so many anarthas and offended Srila Prabhupda in so many ways all throughout my life whenever I looked around I always saw pictures or murtis of Rla Prabhupda in Ka. He never left me. He was always just an arm's length away. He never left me and tolerated my nonsense once in Vrindavan. And what I'm going to say about this is today I had an experience of putting Gopi Chanda on Prabhupda's murti which is also a murti that I helped to make so it's very auspicious that this is happening to me. When I was a young boy of 22 years of age, Sri Lakha Ujala and Malati Prabhu asked me to put sandalwood pulp on Rla Prabhupda's forehead. While I was putting it on his head, I realized that it would take me the rest of my life life to understand who and what RLA Prabhupda is. Now I am 75 years old and now I realize that I don't have a clue who and what he is. My teeny brain cannot comprehend the character of Srila Prabhupada. Until my dying day days I just hope to be able to follow his instructions and perform some service that will please him. Once in Vrindavan, we were at a life member's house taking prashada and after eating in an informal setting, I asked him a question. I said, since we are Satchitananda Vigraha, we are eternal, full of knowledge, blissful and possess an eternal spiritual form. If we are our own worst enemies. And he said yes, that was a good question. Up until then all my questions and statements were nonsense. He went on to explain that not only are we envious of our true self but we are envious of Ka as well. That is why we are in the material world. Then he went on to explain that not only are we envious of Ka and our true self but we are envious of the spiritual master as well. By not following the spiritual master's instructions, we display a form of envy. Because somehow or other we think we know better or not willing to follow his instructions, not following or listening to the spiritual master. And because of that envious attitude, when we do not fully surrender until we give up our envy of Ka and Guru, we remain our own worst enemy. We want paradise. But we do not want to pay the bill. The payment is full. Surrender. Then Rla Prabhupda told me to fetch a copy of the new version of the Bhagavad Gita. At that time we only had the old version of the Bhagavad Gita, the abridged edition. But he was so happy. He was almost like a young boy. He was very giddy at having had now the opportunity to have a full edition of Bhagavad Gita. Because before we were not able to properly be accepted by other sadhus and yogis and whoever because we could not quote scripture. So I brought him the Bhagavad Gita as it is. And he personally taught me the first verse of Bhagavad Gita, Dhritarashtra Uvacha Dharma Kuru Cetric. And I thought to myself, how merciful. He let me sit right next to him and with his own hands and lips he taught me the first verse. But I remember on a tape recording hearing Srila Prabhupada say, if we do not love him, at least try to remain obliged. Here I realize to some degree is the divine manifestation of God's love and mercy in the form of the spiritual master working hard to save us. And if we are too envious to surrender, he said at at minimum, just remain obliged. I am trying to love Rla Prabhupda. If I really loved him, I would surrender and follow him completely. Jaiva Takasvamy and other devotees really love him and you can see the results of their love. I am ashamed that I have fallen short of loving him. But I am obliged because I do realize the mercy he has given me. Once, in 1975, I was pretending to be Srila Prabhupda's bodyguard in Los Angeles. Daily he would hold meetings with college professors and other dignitaries in his garden. I had just finished reading a verse in purport from the Bhagavad Gita, and while Rla Prabhupda was speaking, I heard him recite verbatim exactly the same verse and purport. That's when I realized that Rla Prabhupda is non different from his words. That is why all of you who feel that you wish you had the chance to see or be be with him, you should not despair. I have met many devotees that have told me that they wish they would have had a chance to see Rla Prabhupda. Because the vani or the verbal presence of the spiritual master is more important than the Bapu, the physical presence. Technically, as in the beginning of this presentation, I told you that seeing and touching Rla Palavda was incomprehensible. Hearing his lectures or reading his books is no different than being with him personally. Again, I want you to listen very carefully. I guarantee that hearing his words are no different than being with him directly. None. Not at all. You must appreciate and understand that Rla Prabhupda is incarnated in his books. They are one and the same with him. That is the eternal divine mercy he has given the whole world. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much. Jadavacharya Prabhu. Your attempt when you said today I'm 75 and I still do not know who Srila Prabhupada is, speaks volumes about your respect and your reverence for him. Thank you very much. The next speaker, I would like to specially mention that he has tirelessly worked to make this Vyasa Puja possible and he has been very, very dynamically active. I would request his grace Janamashtami Prabhu to please come on stage now and share his realizations and read out his homage for Srila Prabhupada Paravati Bhakta Sripa.
Janmashtavi Pramu Jinni Pahua a clam a bashka Sundar Bhave.
Do Summary. I can give you this, make it easy for you. Bhaktivedanta Swamini Tinamani Namaste Saraswati Dev Gauravani Picharani Nirvishe Shisha Shunyavadi Pashtacha desaturani. I'll condense this a little bit because Prabhupada is going to be giving a class in the just a few minutes and there's not much time.
So.
In the purport I'm going to read it so that I don't ad lib and it will go quicker. But in the purport to Srimad Bhagavatam 4.28.48, I'm going to paraphrase you describe how the spiritual master, when he comes, he brings order out of disorder. But then when he leaves, to a certain extent that disorder returns. So the sincere, the faithful follower, he dedicates himself to putting this back in order, bringing back the order that was there before. Some of the senior devotees that are here can, I'm sure, vividly remember what it was like in the first 18, 20 years after Prabhupada left.
So.
Even before I discovered this purport, somehow or other I was inspired to do this kind of service. For instance, in the mid-80s in America, book distribution came almost to a complete stop. And then there were three fall downs of gurus, zonal leaders in America. And it had a devastating, devastating impact on everybody. I was with a friend, we were doing, we were doing traveling Sankirtan and we just like night after night we would talk about what happened and.
He.
We both came to the conclusion that there was a major deviation that had taken place in our movement with the devotees not being in contact to distribute books. And so I went on a campaign with a whole team to get book distribution going again and we moved from three full time distributors to 85 in a four year period. And there's a relevant reference that I want to cite in this regard. This is a class that Prabhupada gave in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. 72 he first cited the peace formula and then he went on to say, if we really want peace, then we should understand that Ka, the supreme personality of Godhead is the enjoyer. We have to serve him for his enjoyment. That is called devotional service, transcendental loving service. Just like the Master is there and for his enjoyment there are so many servants, they are engaged in his service. That is our position. Maimaya Vamso, Jiva Loki Jiva Buddha, you take in so many ways. Our position is to serve Ka.
And.
By his pleasure we shall be pleased. Real key sentence there. When we're pleasing Ka, we're pleased, we feel the reciprocation. So then I go on to say with your amazing reciprocation and support I described earlier, you know that the increase of book distribution, I was simply a servant of the team members. That's the way I viewed myself. And because these devotees were working so hard to please Ka and you Rla Prabhupada, because it was such a high prioritized service, they were so blissful. So then I had a similar experience for 10 and a half years in my service of starting the Mayapur Institute and managing it. The following letter that you wrote to the this is an excerpt from a letter you wrote to the devotees in New York when you were in San Francisco starting the second temple. I'm just going to excerpt a key part. If you chant always Hare Ka, read my books and preach this philosophy sincerely, then Ka will provide you with all facility and you will not fall down into material entanglement. Then in a room conversation in Hyderabad he said this is also in 72 every temple should be an education center and the Brahmins should be engaged. They should be properly educated and they should teach others in this way. Every temple in this way temple means education in spiritual life. At that time, very few devotees in Mayapur and throughout the ISKCON world were systematically studying your books. I had positive experiences studying at the Vihe in Vrindavan. So I felt inspired that there was huge scope for developing something similar in Mayapur. In April of 1999, after discussing with Hari Sari Prabhu at that time he was in the Mayapur Administrative Council. He took Me for a meeting with His Holiness Jaipataka Swami and Maharaj. He loved the idea. But he gave one condition. He said, Jamastami Prabhu, you can take this service on but you have to stay with it for at least five years. I couldn't really understand why he put this condition there. But after I got into the service I understood why. It was quite a difficult service. And at that time I was always chanting my rounds in your Samadhi Srila Prabhupada. And even in the most difficult circumstances I just got so much reciprocation from you. It's like I'd walk in when a major catastrophe was going on with the service. And I felt like a tsunami of bliss just crashed on my head. So I'm just begging you. It was your love and mercy that allowed me to continue with that service. So I'm begging that you allow me to continue to serve you to my very last day. Hare Ka.
So.

Thank you so much Janmashtami Prabhu particularly for 4.1 8.28 Order disorder. Order disorder. Nonetheless, some important announcement. I would request His Grace Antarvi Prince Prabhu from Mayapur TV to be ready with Srila Prabhupada's class. I would also request business Madhavari Prabhu and Krishna Chaitanya Prabhu to now get ready for the Abhishek around 11:15am Abishek would begin. At that time please note only Pujaris and disciples of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada. They are allowed to be on the stage. I repeat, only the Pujari team members and disciples of Srila Prabhupada are allowed on stage.
The next one, Isek Habe.
So now we would hear from none other than His Divine Grace Abhay Charnarvind Bhaktivedan Swami Srila Prabhupada Prabhupada.
Krishna Kripa Srimthya Bhaktivedanta La.
Sa.
J SA.
Yes.
I'm grace to that. Thank you very much. We are under the nature's law. You cannot say that you are independent. Nature's law is very strict. Nature's law. Just like fire. If you touch fire, it will burn. And even a child who is innocent. If the child touches the fire, it will burn. There is no excuse. You cannot say that the child is innocent. It does not know the Effect of touching fire. She should be excused. No, ignorance is no excuse. Especially that is the state laws. You cannot say suppose you have committed some criminal act. If you please, my lord, I did not know that the after doing this act I have to suffer imprisonment. Say excuse me. No, that will be no excuse. You know or not know the law. If you have acted like that, you might suffer. This is going on so we don't believe in the next life just to avoid this consequence. But that will not excuse us. We have to accept a type of body. Otherwise how? There are so many different types of body. What is the explanation? Why different forms of body, different stages of body, defined standard of body. There is nature's law. Therefore this human form of life should be properly utilized. Not simply engaged in sense gratification like cats and dogs. That is not very responsible life. Responsible life is that I have got this improved form of life than the cats and dogs. And I've got more intelligence than the cats and dogs. If I simply utilize it for four bodily necessities of life. Four bodily necessities of life means we require some eating. The cats, dogs, human being or I could judge anyone. They require some eating. They require sleeping apartment so that is cats and dogs can sleep without apartment but sleeping required. That is pact. Eating required. That is fact and sex life. That is also pact and defense. That is also fact. But these things are common to the cats and dogs and man. Human being. What is the special feature of the human being? The special feature of the human being is that a human being can consider that I have got these rights. American or Australian or Indian body. Then what I am going to get next? What kind of body that is utilized for human intelligence? A cat and dog cannot think like that. Therefore our business should be. Now by the nature's way. I have come to this form of life by evolutionary process. Now I have got good intelligence. How I shall utilize it? That proper utilization. That proper utilization is indicated in the Vedanta philosophy. Vedanta philosophy. Perhaps you have heard the name. Veda means knowledge and on top means last stage or end. Everything has got some end. So you are being educated. You are taking education where it shall end. That is called Vedanta. Where the ultimate point. The Vedanta philosophy says that is Vedanta philosophy. Ultimate knowledge. The ultimate knowledge that is explained in the Bhagavad Gita. What is that ultimate knowledge? Bhidha ista sad Bhai ahami Vabhidam. You are cultivating knowledge. The ultimate goal of knowledge, Krishna says is to know Me bhidha ista sadbai ahami ma beetam. The whole knowledge is meant for understanding God. That is the end of knowledge. By progressive knowledge you can make progress. But unless you do not come to the point to understand what is God then your knowledge is imperfect. That is called Bizaat Brahmajikas. This human form of life. Nice facility, intelligence. Just like Australia was undeveloped since the Europeans came here. It is now very developed, resourceful. Because the intelligence has been utilized. Similarly America, many other places. So this intelligence should be utilized. But if we simply utilize this intelligence for the same purpose as the cats and dogs are engaged then it is not proper utilization. The proper utilization is Vedanta Atartha Brahmajikyasa. Now you should enquire about Brahma, the absolute that is intelligence. So people do not get to understand how nature's law is going on. Nature's law means God's law. Nature is not independent. That is stated in the Bhagavad Gita. Maya Dakshina Sacharatra. Nature is a machine. Do you think a machine works without an operator? Do you think? Is there any evidence? Now this is a machine photography. A wonderful machine. It is taking the picture and it will move. But there is an operator. Where is the machine which is working without operator? Can you give any example? Here is a machine which is working without operator. So how do you think that the nature machine is working without the supreme operator? God's instruction. How do you think it? This is not very reasonable. We have to judge. There are different evidences. One of the evidence is hypothesis. That hypothesis is that because we see that no machine works without operator. Therefore we should conclude it. Even though we do not know what is God, what is the nature. We must conclude it. That is nature is working under some supreme operator that is God. It is not necessary to see the operator. But we can guess that that must be operated. The human life is meant for finding out who is there to operate. That is human life. Other is it cats and dogs life. They are eating, sleeping, mating and dancing. That's all that is not immersive. You must find out who is the operator. This is called in Sanskrit word. Now this human form of life is meant for enquiring about this supreme operator. Now that supreme operator Krishna is so kind. He is giving evidence in the Bhagavad Gita. Now here I am under my direction the Parikiti, the nature material nature is working. So you accept. Then your business is done. And Krishna gave evidences how he is controlling the nature. When Ka was seven years old, he lived at one big mountain on his finger. That means our understanding is that there is law of gravitation. By law of gravitation, such a big mountain, it cannot stay in one man's finger. That is our calculation. But he did it. That means he counteracted the law of gravitation. That is God. So if you believe this, then you know God immediately. There is no difficulty. Just like if a child is what my dear child, do not touch fire, it will burn you. So if the child accepts, then he gets the perfect knowledge immediately. If the child does not accept, he wants to make experiment, then he will burn his fingers. So our process of knowledge we should take from the supreme authority. Then we save time for research work. That is Ka Consciousness movement. We take perfect knowledge from Ka. I may be imperfect, just like child is imperfect. Child may be imperfect, you may be imperfect. But if you take the perfect knowledge from the supreme perfect, then your knowledge is perfect. That is the process. This is called Abarohopanta knowledge coming deductive knowledge. So everything is there. And if you like to take advantage of this movement, make your life perfect, go back to home, back to Godhead. Then fully utilize this center. Our male bond center. Come here, read our books and argue. Try to understand with your full knowledge. No blindly acceptance. There is reason, there is argument, there is philosophy, there is science. Everything is there. And if you accept that simply by chanting, I shall realize that is also allowed both ways. If you accept this simple process, chant Hare Ka and realize God. That is also fact. And if you think what is this nonsense chanting Hare Krishna then you read books both ways. We are prepared. Come and take advantage of this moment. Thank you very much. Where it is stated in the scriptures that Lord Rama rides on a swan. I'm sorry, is this. We take this to mean that it's a real swan or is it something symbolic? Not symbolic, it's fact. Why do you say symbolic? Unusual. What experience you have got? You have no experience. Have you got any experience of our planetary system? What is there then? Your experience is very teeny. So you should not calculate Brahma's life and other things by your tiny experience now. But in the Bhagavad Gita it is said that the duration of life of Brahma Shahastra Yuga Padjantam or Hajjat Brahmano Vidhu. Now Brahma's life is stated in Shastra. We have already explained that we accept the authoritative statement of Sastra. Now Brahma's life is stated there. Or hop means his one day is equal to our four dugas. Four jugas means 4,300 4,300,000 years and multiply it by 1,000. Sahasra yuga patchantam sahasra means 1,000. And yuga means the 4,300,000 years makes a Jew and multiplied by 1,000 that period is Brahma's one day. Similarly he has got one night. Similarly he has got one month. Similarly he has got one year. And such hundred years he will live and calculate how it is within your experience. You think something mysterious. No, your experience is nothing. Therefore you have to take experience from the perfect person Ka. Then your knowledge is perfect. That I have already said. Don't try to understand with your teeny experience. Everything learning, failure that I have already explained that you are coming here. Even though you are not initiated. There is also service. So if you deposit $0.01 daily one day it may become hundred dollars. So when you get the hundred dollars you can get the business. So you come here daily $0.01. $0.01. When it will be hundred dollars you will become a devotee. So this is not wasted. It is. That is stated in the Srimad Mahagavata Kritapurna Punya Kirta Punna. Ka means done. Shuddha Goswami is describing when Ka was playing with his coward boys friends. So he was describing that these coward boys were playing with Ka. They have not come to this position in one day. Krita Purna Punja after life. After life having performed pious activities now they have come to this position that they are allowed to play with the supreme. So any past activities done for the sake of Ka that is your permanent asset. It will never be lost. So go on increasing the asset one day it will so help you that you will be able to play with Ka. This is Ka consciousness movement. Haven't you convinced somebody? First of all what devotee is? There are different or many spiritual movements in the world. How can I know which one is the right? For me it is very easy. Spiritual movement means to understand God. Any spiritual movement you adopt, if you understand God then it is all right. Either it is bogus. If you understand God, you take any movement. If you think everyone is spiritual movement, all right, you take it. Then if you come to understand now I have understood God then that is all right. I have no experience. That is experience. Actually if you eat you will feel satisfaction. And without eating I will feel satisfaction. So if you follow spiritual movement then you will understand God. That is the result. And if you think that you are following some spiritual movement but you do not know what is God. That means you are following some bogus thing. That is the test. It hasn't got to be certified. You can know. Just like if you eat, you will feel satisfaction. You haven't got to take satisfaction on others. Do you think I am eating? And you can say. If you understand fully God, then that is spiritual movement. If you do not understand, then you must know that you are following some bogus. This is the test. There are different casts. I say different may be hundreds. But it is up to you to test whether you have understood God. That is the test. Real test. Yes. Have you told you this person.
They're suffering when they actually.
When they say someone who is not afraid to die and says that he's not suffering. He's a madman. That's all. Who is caring for madman's work. Very easy to convince some.
Some people.
If they're not their bodies, it's not very easy to convince them. If they're not their mind. There's some way we can. And that will take time. How can we expect then One minute. Everyone will understand everything. He requires education, time. If he's prepared to give the time, then he will understand. Not that within 5 minutes, 10 minutes he will understand the whole thing. That's not possible. He is a diseased man. He requires treatment, medicine and diet. In this way he will understand a diseased man. If he doesn't care for medicine, diet, then he will suffer. That's all. Yes. Anyway. No.
We have been here for many lifetimes performing sinful activities. So is it possible to counteract all those sinful activities in one lifetime?
Or does it require one minute? That is Ka conservation. One minute. You are not reading Bhagavad Gita. What Krishna says. You surrender unto me. Give up your all business. I will give you relief from all sinful reaction immediately. Prithikas. One minute. My dear Krishna, I was forgotten. Now I understand. I fully surrender. You become immediately free from all things. Without any reservation, without any politics. If you fully silent life. Krishna is assuring. Don't worry whether I will be able to give you relief from all. It is guaranteed. You do this. So how much time it requires to surrender to Krishna Immediately you can do that. Surrender means you surrender and what as Krishna says. That is surrender. What Krishna says to do. Manmana Maman Bhakta Madhya Ji Mah Namaskaru. Four things. You always think of me and you become my devotee. You worship me and offer your respect, full obeisances. And you do these four things. That is Full surrender. Mami Vajrasi. Then you come to me without any doubt everything is there. Krishna has given everything fully. If you accept it then life is very simple. There is no difficulty. Yes. Before Krishna come to this finance again now calculate. I have already given the duration of 1 day 12 hours of Brahma means 4,300,000 years multiplied by 1000. What it comes 4,300,000 years multiplied By 1000.
4300,0000-0043-0000-0000.
000. No, no difference of opinion. In Australia they calculate difference. Anyway what is your Australian conclusion? Let me know.
Their billion is something else.
Anyway I give you the right figure 4 million according to American and English calculator 4,300,000 years and multiply it by 1000. Then what? It comes according to English calculation that is 12 hours and add again 12 hours night then 8 billion. So Ka comes after this period in one day. After one day a Brahma he appears. Yes, following Krishna. Krishna comes in the Dapur Jew. There are four periods of each Jew. So Krishna comes at the end of the Aparju and Chaitan Mahapur comes in the collegium. So almost about the same year same circulation. Just like the sun appears after so many hours it is like this and the sun does not disappear. Sun is already there in the sky. It may not be in Australia's vision but it may be in other countries vision. The sun is not dead. Similarly Ka appears by rotation in this universe after so many years. Eight billion and nine billion years. So next he goes to another universe. Just like the sun. After disappearance from Australia it goes to another country. Suddenly Ka after finishing his business in this universe he goes to another universe. In this way the rotation takes 8 million 9 billion years. Just imagine how many universes are there. He stays in one universe for 125 years. Everything is a calculation in this Astra. Now we can imagine how many universes are there. That is altogether material world. That is stated in this material creation is 1/4 creation of the whole God's property. And the 3/4 part is in the spiritual world. That is God. Not that cheap God. Damn God. In this God we don't accept such cheap Goddess. And what if we have to take birth in the material world in the next life? How will we be able to render.
Direct service unto you?
Yes, even if you remain in the material. If you are not completed your spiritual life still you will get good bath. One who is failure in completing Ka consciousness Then he is given next chance in a very aristocratic family or very nice pure Brahmin's. Family so that he can again cultivate Krishna consciousness next chalice.
His question was when we take initiation.
From from you we understand that we become your eternal servitors.
But we have to come again to another birth.
If you remain eternally in the instruction and if you fall from the instruction, how you can remain eternal? You have to stay on the platform then eternally you are safe. If you fall down from the platform then it is your fault. Just like we are all in the Voykuntu planet now we wanted to enjoy this material world. We have fallen. Now there is enjoy Vijay now we are trying to go back again. That's what we say. Go back to home, back to God. So everything is there is process. If you follow the process then you go back. If you fall now that is our fault. Therefore the life is meant for Papua Shah that Rishabh destruction that our life should not be wasted like dogs and hogs and pigs. It should be utilized for Tapasa for understanding our position. This is the aim of life. We have to purify our existence. At the present moment our existence is impurified. Therefore we are subjected to birth, death, old age and disease. And as soon as we purify ourselves then we are not subjected to this all material laws. Thank you very much.

A painting competition was also organized and the prizes to the winners will be awarded here. Please do come because these children, close to 200 children have participated and it would be a sight to behold the kind of paintings that they have come up with. There will be yet another dance performance by a group of Russian and Bengali devotees together of course. Besides that we will have many senior Vaishnavis and Vaishnavas to share their homages with all of us in a short while. After this we will be doing the Pushpanjali and followed by that would be the Arati.

Like other years I again got a chance to glorify Srila Prabhupada. I would like everyone to please repeat with me. Everybody please repeat Hare Krishna. Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Srila Prabhupada I offer my respectful obeisances and my homage unto you. Please forgive me. I will try to speak about Srila Prabhupada that Srila Prabhupada is like the light of this world. He is like that transcendental spiritual effulgence that is brightening up the whole world. It is said that during the lifetime of a great man his achievements are not fully realized or recognized. Srila Prabhupada is just like that spiritual light but somehow or other I am like a lamp and as there is shadow under the lamp similarly my heart is also like a shadow which has not been lit up. I beg you Srila Prabhupada please light up my darkened heart and we are trying to. We are trying to assimilate the qualities of your divine lotus feet. We are trying to perform Kirtan to please you and please Sri Sri Radha Madhava and the Panchitattvas Srila Prabhupada, I beg you Please bestow your blessings so that I may be able to please Sri Sri Radha Madhava and Panchitatva through the Kirtan Hare Krishna.
Thank you, Murarihari Prabhu for your wonderful offering. And I would request His Grace Janamashtami Prabhu to speak for one minute about the education initiatives.
Tapan Mishra Prabhu, the Minister of Education asked me to speak about what we're going to be doing after Tirubhav. We're going to be offering two courses that will help devotees in a tremendous way to establish Rla Prabhupada as their preeminent Shiksha guru deep in their hearts. Until Krishna Prabhu and I met with Jaipataka Swami after the Calcutta Rath Yatra and explained what we were doing. He's totally behind it. He wants all 70,000 plus disciples to take the courses we'll be offering them in Bangla, Hindi, English, Russian.
Russian brain.
The other thing is another significant part of the conversation that I had that we had with Jaipattaka Swami. I started actually the conversation by describing how disastrous that was, was in the first 18 years after Srila Prabhupada left, said to Jaipataka Swami Maharaj, but devotees like your good self, the senior gurus, Bhakti Chu Swami, Gokalkrishna Maharaj, Radhana Swami, many others kind of glued our movement back together again. But what will happen after you all leave? It may even be worse than it was after Srila Prabhupada left and he completed completely.
Agree.
We are in the last leg of today's program. Special request to maintain decorum, please. So now the Pranati Mantras will be requesting Sri Krishna Chaitanya Prabhu to please come here to announce the Pranati Mantras and all the Matajis on that side a little away from the stage. You can just, you can throw your flowers to that Srila Prabhupada disciples. One by one they can go onto the stage and offer the flowers.
No, no.
Krishna Chaitanya Prabhu. Krishna Chaitanya Prabhu, if you are there, please come here on the stage.
Is here.
Okay?
Please all of you, please maintain silence. And one by one Prabhupada disciples are requested. After the Pranti Mantras have been offered Sanyasis, Srila Prabhupada disciples, divisional heads, they are announced to go onto the stage. In a proper cue.
We shall chant.
Srila Prabhupada's Pranam Mantra total three times. And every time we will offer Pushpanchali three times. So all together you will be offering flowers nine times to Srila Prabhupada.
Nama.
Om Vishnupadaya Vishnu Padh Krishna Prishthaya Prachari Krishna Prishtaya Bhutali Rala Swami Namaste. Namaste.
You all can just wherever you are from there just throw the flower petals to offer the Offer the flower petals. Thank you for correcting Krishna Chaitanya Prabhu so and now ceremony will take place. Do not forget at 4:30 there is a wonderful Shobha Yatra of Srila Prabhupada and then wonderful homages by senior Vaishnavas and Vaishnavis. Dance performance by a group of Russian and Bengali devotees and a competition, a painting competition competition by this over 200 students of Smith and Bvns. Please start Kirtan Team.
