If you really desire, long for Vrndavana, you don’t need to go to Vaikuntha.
Who wants to be immersed in
brahmajyoti? Krsna’s devotees do not desire any of the four kinds of liberation/mukti.
One who goes to brahmajyoti is in a state of coma, he has life but no conscience, like a stone at the bottom of the sea.
The Jivas who want to merge with brahmajyoti are asuras.
On Putana, her repulsive actions, and Krishna’s mercy.
Sloka: aho bakī yaṁ stana-kāla-kūṭaṁ (Srimad Bhagavatam 3.2.23).
It is very difficult to reach Goloka and be able to chant the names of the Lord at the time of death, but Putana went to Goloka because she belongs to the dynasty of Bali Maharaja and Prahlada Maharaja.
Lila of Vamanadeva Bhagavan and Bali Maharaja.
Lila of Nrsimhadeva Bhagavan and Prahlada Maharaja.
Beautiful sloka that makes one cry: prāyeṇa deva munayaḥ sva-vimukti-kāmā (Srimad Bhagavatam 7.9.44).
What’s the use of liberating yourself alone?
Sri Nrsimhadeva makes a blessed promise to Prahlada Maharaja.
Srila Gurudeva grants us a relationship with Krsna through the mantra that awakens the seed of sambandha-jnana and the vine of devotional service.
The Guru is transcendental, he is not ordinary.
Everything that is achieved in the material world ends up in unhappiness and suffering.
People are always chewing the chewed.
Save yourself from committing aparadhas because they prevent you from getting rid of maya.
Don’t criticise anybody.
