04/07/24 morning – Krsna and Mahaprabhu (English) | London, England | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

  • Some lilas of Krsna manifest themselves in different ways and in different sequences, they do not always happen exactly the same in all kalpas and yugas.
  • ⁠In one Brahmanda, one type of lila happens and, in another Brahmanda, another lila happens.
  • ⁠Nitya-lila is in Goloka Vrndavana.
  • ⁠Jatila and Kutila are not in Goloka Vrndavana because there is no mood of opposition to Radha and Krsna there, but Yogamaya arranges it.
  • ⁠Krsna is independent, He does not need His lilas to happen in the same way in all Brahmandas.
  • ⁠The nine stages of bhakti, from sradha to prema, and then to the maha-bhava of the gopis.
  • ⁠The gopis attain rudha-mahabhava.
  • ⁠About the false brahmanas who were born into a brahmana family but do not practice spiritual life or principles.
  • ⁠A candala (outside caste) who chants the Holy Names is not a candala.
  • ⁠The origin of birth is not important, the important thing is to practice bhajana and sadhana.
  • ⁠Beautiful lila from Advaita Acarya praising Haridasa Thakura in the assembly full of brahmanas.
  • ⁠Good karma or bad karma, the result is the same, imprisonment in the material world.
  • ⁠Interesting explanation of the meaning of the word “suffering” in Sanskrit and English.
  • ⁠Difference between punya-karma, papa-karma and sukrti.
  • ⁠Scriptural evidence that the person who chants the Holy Names has been practicing bhakti for many lifetimes and is the highest brahmana: aho bata śva-paco ’to garīyān… (SB 3.33.7).
  • ⁠Radha dreams of Mahaprabhu and tells Krsna.
  • ⁠Meaning of the word “Svetadvipa” – the Dhama of separation (viraha). Vrndavana is the Dhama of encounter (sambhoga).
  • ⁠Funny story about the frog who thought he was more powerful than the elephant: give up your false ego!
