Śrīmad Bhāgavatam Class (4.9.27) #JayapatakaSwamiArchives

So anything which has connection with the Lord is real. Anything without connection to the Lord should be known as of this material world. Very important test. How many know that something is Ka conscious? Request. Sometimes a neophyte may think that well, this is very good. So it must be Krishna conscious. It's like how do you want to lose gold or is he real Knowledge bill is fantastic. You have to do so how do you know something that is Krishna conscious? It has to be connected to Krishna. It's not favorably connected to Ka. There is where Krishna does. That's what's very important. So Vidura, as you see, we are testing and of course one quality is somebody is connected to Krishna. They're happy. Why Yoga is not happy? What he was asking for was not very much connected with Krishna. Being the greatest king bigger than his father. All these one were charltons. Although the Lord said he would remain in contact with him if he did devotional service, he was somewhat of a risk. Now he asked for all these material blessings. And somehow he has to his real lives know that Mishra is supreme Narayana is supreme Lord and he wants to remain in contact with Narayana with Krishna. But he's afraid Now I asked for all these material things and now I got them. And now I have to somehow survive this. I have to get Krishna again. So that's why left feeling very happy is a bit concerned. Sometimes we are devoting it something material. They don't necessarily feel like super happy. They may feel okay. This is the opportunity for me to do something more practitional. But they also feel very much responsible. I have to be very careful because with the more opportunity to serve Krishna come also more opportunity to enjoy the senses. If I misuse these opportunities, I'll be in big trouble. So the devotees don't feel so much like hiration. You saw in the newspaper one day, Gonda, you all come. They are mad with happiness dancing in this dream. Usually I remember I saw the marriage at one time. You have to read the paper to find out where you're going. If they're winning a football cup, it's dangerous. Drunken drivers, wild parties, violence, craziness. In Santiago, Chile, we were arriving. They had just won the Copa Americana, which is like the Euro Cup. This is the South American, no? That's very highly competitive against all those top football countries like Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia. Quite very good football countries are there. So when Chile won, there was a huge celebration. 250 people injured, nine people dead. This is for victory. Because of drunken driving. Because of drunken Road because of so many accidents it's dangerous. You cannot go to the downtown during that time because people they are throwing their baby come out of the control and they are happiness. So just like that type of happiness what is I have losing their control Even I get something on the morning in Dubai sometimes they have this automatic laundry when you just go to the supermarket and you buy something then you automatically get a coupon Then if you scratch it you can see whether you want or not want or you have the working number you don't pay anything. So they were saying this is gambling. I said okay, it's gambling. You do that if you put your own money like you're gambling but you're not risking anything. It's no gamble for you. You already bought you good. You got a free coupon you can see whether you want or not. What's the high? So she won one brand new Lexus or Mercedes Benz was Dh70,000 car. She wants to know what Sachs she wants to sell and pay for her child There were policy where then your child gets put to the college and give something for Krishna and do something like this so she had it on how few things give you 70,000 practically how the usage for me family from my spiritual I so difference between that and work is. So that's why here I'm saying that he was not very heavy do us not very pleased he was pleased he saw the Lord he was not ready as he's got a thing now he's got a lot of things he has to do so the devotional life is very responsible. If he had just got a purely spiritual blessing then it would have been different. But now he has to deal with himself some material situations we think that material life will make us happy that's the illusion we think I'm just not happy because I don't have enough money. If I don't have money then I'd be happy. There's that funny movie. You probably saw it on ITV circuit he had 1090. You see that it's a Hindi movie and they monks and devotees. Nobody's seen it of course you can also get it from any show but some of it's very old movies he has Jun Daggy and now they have some title so people are watching that some guy was. It's actually taken from Purana but modernized but such story was there for Purana that's why it's somewhat monotized but they didn't know like modernized Instead of the Puranic example they made some modern example There Was a family in the white first bani devoted and had a Krishna Devi. Every day she would put one some paisa into the brownie box. And then husband was working as a sweet maker. We have also here. Wonderful. He was making sweets and has his own shop. I met last night then. So this husband, he got an opportunity. Let me invest some money and buy it out on my own sweet shop. He don't have any money. So then what he does is he steals the program he buys. And somehow Krishna appears to him and said, you are taking my money. He said I'll give you back. I was in business. So then he the wife and he got very upset the two Krishna's marriage. So I told him I came back. This is the law. So then my Krishna's words. The wife is very tired. So that sweep shall become. You know, first class huge sweet shop. So many servants. At the end the person become like the biggest sweet shop owner in the city. He's got a huge mansion. He's got the Mercedes Benz and all the everything. So then before they're living in a little flat with husband all eating together. Now the husband's sitting at the big table and nobody's there. Nobody wants to eat. No, we don't work together. Just the wife. Daughter is off taking horse writing lessons. Son is doing something else. So he was the victim there Royal United. And he's flying off to Bombay by the jet. He's very unhappy because all the things he thought if I have all this, I'll be happy. His family was. Then he got very sick because of all the attention. There was his business and everything. Then he writes a sick man. And Krishna all the money keeps coming back. He keeps saying where's my money? He never paid me back. He still didn't pay back the money he took with interest. Then he comes when he's in the sick bed and he says where's the money? You're not paying me, you know. And then he looks at his pills, you know, he's taking antibiotics, antibiotics. Terramycin, streptomycin. All these reading are all of this mycin. Why? The reason he said it's all bison. Bison after half. So finally when there he just Krishna has money. And he said I really didn't understand. That's interesting how you get Everything was done. Has was impregnated like that. Wanted to get married to the horse riding trainer. And he was shocked because now he's a big walla. So that this guy's not good enough for his daughter. Whatever could go Wrong in his life. Everything went wrong in unexpected ways. So it's like with somebody one happiness they get. That's also a ritual by Vasina Krishna. Everything about Dharma how useful it shows that if you are not Ka conscious, even though you have material faith, you still suffer by anything. Because why you are just faith. And how Krishna was very kind. He was. And how of all the people, the happiest was the mother. She was always fixed in her devotional service. She was the only one happy because she was always in the devotee. Other thing here when Prabhupada was dressing. Is that hearing all this description. Just he heard after all this wonderful blessing. He got the service of the Lord. God gives denomination worship. The Lord not very much pleased. He picked that up. You think after what was speaking of winning the laundry. He wanted more than anything to win. He got the seed of the Lord. He got the universal Kingdom. He got so many blessings. But he is not very pleased. How is that? So why he is not very pleased? Somebody who is Krishna conscious. They are very pleased the fixed in their devotional service. So that's why the Lord is very observant. And notice all the little things. They will pick out what's Ka conscious, what's not Krishna conscious art of it, which is very, very wise person. The Lord is also very wise. They think of all these things. They go deeper into the meanings. They understand that when we do our daily work, we also we have to be connected to Ka. We do our work very conscientiously. At the same time, I think that this is so I can offer my Bhoga to Ka. I can feed my family with Krishna for saram. I can serve Krishna devotees. Even though they knew their material. Everybody had chances to their very much attached to coming to class, to hearing about Ka chanting. Some people think if I was manager, I'll be happy. Now I'm only the employee. But I know one day only he was in a manager. Then he was unhappy because of employee. He had more time to chance. But his manager has no overtime. Then you have to work longer hours. You have to work really hard. In the sense that you have to always use your brain. And seeing how things are going as a worker, he actually was getting no less money. Because if you work overtime, you get in America to double pay. So a little bit over time he had it. But he was not pressure and he was getting. I'm going to go back to the boat. That nobody could understand. Because socially, but because his spiritual life was suffering. He wanted to do his Bhakti rickshaw preaching he wanted now as a manager he had to stay up late and he had to go over all the accounts and do so many things. So he couldn't attend our program. And he was hardly making any more money for it. Just for the social status of being the manager. He was having more maybe after the managing director is one thing. So the worries they said to judge according to their own situation. But things are not always ready right in vain for how they're going to be beneficial. But the devotee has also their own things that they want to see whether their spiritual life will progress nicely. Whether the sometimes when they get job or they're separated from their family. My family suffers through so many factors. Especially there could be more ka conscious together. So it's interesting here because the vidura he's picked out one little discrepancy. One little something different there. He wants to know why is it that he's not so much happy. Any question Everybody should put their Mughal and favorite mod or off. He had all these special demands. He didn't have a spiritual vision at that time. Now after seeing the Lord he realized. He realized the Lord in five months. 056 months. And he asked that he had all these material areas and all this lady was it immediately had captured shade of breathing death. Immediately going back to the spiritual world. Ceremony is to serve 60,000 wanderers in a prison house in this material world. Of course for devotees that are serving for the service of the Lord. Thank you for watching our videos.
