19/12/24 morning – How to Attain Krsna-prema (English) | Maui, Hawaii, USA | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

  • It is not possible to put two swords in the same sheath, in the same way, when we develop our spiritual life, our material life restrains.
  • ⁠When one practices bhakti, dharma, artha, jnana and moksa want to serve the devotee.
  • ⁠Stages: sadhana-bhakti, bhava-bhakti, prema-bhakti.
  • ⁠The first two leaves of Bhakti, klesaghni and subhada, appear in the stage of sadhana-bhakti.
  • ⁠The two leaves sudurlabha and moksa-laghuta-krt appear in the stage of bhava-bhakti.
  • ⁠The two leaves sandrananda-visesatma and krsna-akarsini appear in the stage of prema.
  • The only form of mukti that the devotee accepts is the realization of his constitutional form of soul that is capable of serving the Divine Couple.
  • Krsna is covered by the golden color of Radha and comes to earth as Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
  • Radha has blue eyes because wherever She looks She sees only Krsna.
  • Songs: Krsna Deva Bhavatam Vande and Radha Ramana Giridhari.
  • Radha is always playing with Krsna.
  • Song: Radha Krpa Kataksa Stava Raja.
  • Lila of Radha fighting with the bee that wanted to sit on Her feet.
  • The internal and external reasons for Krsna assuming the golden color of Radha.
  • ⁠Sloka: anarpita-carīṁ cirāt karuṇayāvatīrṇaḥ kalau… (CC Adi-lila 1.4).
  • ⁠Song: Ke Jabi Ke Bhai.
  • ⁠Mahaprabhu runs after the jivas (all beings) to save them and grant them prema.
  • ⁠The perfect pranali (initiation process) is to follow all the stages of bhakti step by step, chant the Holy Names and attain the realization of one’s soul identity.
