25 Nov 2023 afternoon – The Beauty of the Transcendental World (Hindi) – Govardhana, India | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

  • In Kali-yuga most people have faith in demigods.
  • People do not know what is favourable or unfavourable, this discrimination is possible only through performing bhajana.
  • The four types of people who worship Krsna, as mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita.
  • The story of when the elephant Gajendra was pulled into the water by a crocodile.
  • A person can do bhajana only if he has sukriti, which comes through
    sadhu-sanga.
  • Manjari-seva is the highest service, and, the sevas of the nisanta-lila period.
  • The effulgence emanating from Radharani’s body is the colour of molten gold, and Krsna’s body shines like a blue diamond.
  • The four perfumes with special fragrances that are sprayed in the nikunjas (arbour, grove; a solitary place for meeting and enjoying Radha and Krsna).
  • In the transcendental world everything is eternally beautiful and fresh. You can only enter the nikunjas with the permission of the manjaris.
  • Krsna’s sweet lila massaging and decorating Radharani’s hair while She was on His lap.
  • The more you listen to harikatha, the more greed will arise in your heart.
  • The most valuable jewel of all is within your heart, and by listening to harikatha it will be possible to awaken this svarupa (spiritual form).
  • The nine limbs of bhakti.
  • Song: Śrī Śrī Rādhā-kṛpā-kaṭākṣa-stava-rāja, spoken by Siva.
  • We should not share spiritual feelings. Example of the camphor aroma that disappears after opening the box.
  • About Yama-loka.
  • An uttama-maha-bhagavata does not consider what is material or not, for his Istadeva (Adorable Deity) is everywhere.
  • The example of the mother who welcomes and cleans her child after doing his physiological needs.
  • Bhagavan says that He does not abandon even the worst of the devotees who worship Him.
  • The humour of the gopis is the highest there is, and it is not common to have a desire for this type of humour.
