About santa-rasa. But in Vrndavana everything is conscious. Although the elements of nature are in santa-rasa, everything in the nature of Vrndavana is serving, seva-vrtti.
Everything and everyone has love and affection for Krsna in Vrndavana.
The importance of Dhruva and Prahlada katha for common people, because if we speak very high kathas they don’t understand.
Explanation of how santa-rasa works in Vaikuntha.
What happens to souls that merge into brahma.
Sukadeva Gosvami is not a brahmavadi.
About the Four Kumaras.
Not all who speak rasa-katha are high devotees.
Hanuman would not go to Vrndavana, he could not bear to see Mother Yasoda twisting Krsna’s ears.

Mugdhata and sarvajnata.
There is Narayana and Mula-Narayana Sri Krsna.
About the acyntia-bheda-abheda tattva concept.
Explanation of how Baladeva Prabhu perceives that Krsna has expanded into all of His friends and calves.
The beautiful lila in which Krsna disguises himself as Brahma while expanding into all cowherd boys and calves.
The Adorable Deity of Lord Brahma is Garbhodakasayi Visnu.
Krsna is only happy with Brahma’s prayers when he speaks the verse: aho bhāgyam aho bhāgyaṁ nanda-gopa-vrajaukasām yan-mitraṁ paramānandaṁ pUrṇaṁ brahma sanātanam
Brahma circulates Krsna only 3 times to enjoy that He was pleased with the verse “aho bhāgyam”.
Krsna’s pastimes are very sweet, but one must engage in tattva-siddhanta. However, if one remains only in tattva-siddhanta, one becomes jnani.
You need both: rasa-siddhanta and tattva-siddhanta.
