Yesterday I spoke about the beautiful story of Gopa Kumara and how he never listened to his guru Jayanta’s instructions on how to chant the gopal mantra.
Nevertheless, Gopa Kumara chanted the gopal mantra (king of mantras) three times a day, every day.
The mantra is confidential, do not show it to anyone, because if you show the mantra it will have no power for you.
On Raghunatha Dasa Gosvami’s grief at being separated from Mahaprabhu and other Gaudiya Vaisnavas.
On Gopa Kumara’s grief at being separated from his guru Jayanta.
The story of Citraketu Maharaja and Angira Rsi.
We see the holy dhamas, but we don’t see the lilas.
Gopa Kumara goes to Prayag, in the month of Magh (January/February), to the place where the three rivers (Triveni) meet (Ganges, Yamuna and Sarasvati).
If you spend the whole month of Magh in Triveni, you will go to Satya-loka (Brahma’s planet) after leaving the body.
If you wear kanti-mala and bathe in Ganga and Yamuna, you will go to Goloka Vrndavana after leaving your body.
When you use kanthi, you have to stop eating meat, fish, eggs, onions, garlic, black tea, otherwise you will not get the result.
Gopa Kumara meets various sadhus in Triveni.
Srila Gurudeva says that there was an occasion when Srila Gurudeva Narayana Gosvami Maharaja took everyone (on the day of his appearance) to the Kumbha Mela festival.
Gopa Kumara and the brahmana.
If you do not chant 64 rounds, the Lord will not accept your offering.
The brahmana tells Gopa Kumara that he is not the best recipient of Bhagavan’s mercy, which He only accepts.
Difference between the offerings of the gopis and thousands of brahmanas. -The brahmana says that the best service to the Lord is done by the king of Anantha Padmanabha, where he has a very beautiful temple.
Gopa Kumara chants the gopala-mantra and quickly goes to Anantha Padmanabha by the power of the mantra: śrī-kṛṣṇa gopāla hare mukunda govinda he nanda-kiśora kṛṣṇa hā śrī-yaśodā-tanaya prasīda śrī-ballavī-jīvana rādhikeśa
