PART 1

  • Because Radha does not abandon Her mana, Krsna asks Her to place Her feet on His head, She looks at Him affectionately and cries.
  • Krsna’s highest heroic aspect is called dhira-lalita-nayaka.
  • You must chant the holy names with your japa-mala because the japa-mala that the Guru gives comes with potency.
  • If you buy a japa-mala and chant the holy names, there is no power there.
  • Bhagavat-jnana and atma-jnana: to know about these subjects one needs pranipatа (giving pranamas), pariprasnena (humbly asking questions), seva (serving), serving is fundamental.
  • About Mahaprabhu in Alarnatha / Jagannatha Puri when He melted the stones with His pranamas.
  • Life is successful by rendering service in four ways: prana (with the mind), artha (with the money), with the brain, and vaca (with the words).
  • At the beginning of the process the sadhaka has no mood (bhava), he has only sraddha.
  • By doing sadhana and bhajana life becomes successful.
  • Laukiki-sraddha, paramartiki-sraddha and sastra-sraddha.
  • We see many children who are born in Vaisnava families and are brought up with love, worship of the Lord, but when they grow up they become atheists.
  • One has to accept the sastras (rules and regulations) and have sraddha (faith) in order not to become an atheist.
  • Listening to the Guru’s hari-katha is essential because sabda-brahma purifies the heart and Krsna settles there.
