10 Dec 2023 morning – Prema Bhakti (English translation) – Rajkot, Gujarat, India | Srila BV Vana Maharaja
- The nine limbs of bhakti.
- We must be in sadhusanga to reap the fruits of bhakti and jnana (knowledge).
- It is only through sadhusanga and practicing nama-sankirtana that Krsna-prema will manifest in the devotee’s heart.
- Have attachment to Sri Krsna.
- The glories of the holy names.
- In the prema stage, this material body is abandoned, and the devotee never falls again.
- Only through jnana-yoga it is not possible to completely free yourself from Maya (illusion).
- Bhaktas, very humbly, are always looking for Sri Krsna.
- In this world everyone wants to love and be loved.
- If there is a smell of pratistha (desire for fame, honor and reputation) in the heart, it will not be possible to manifest prema-bhakti.
- Bhaktas want to be controlled by Sri Krsna, they surrender all their actions to Him, and thus, He manifests Himself.
