02 May 2025 morning – Uttama-Adhikari, Madhyama-Adhikari and Kanistha-Adhikari (English) | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

  • The kanistha-adhikari places great emphasis on the worship of the Deities, but his faith is weak, he does not have a good knowledge of the Scriptures. However, he has faith in the Guru and the Scriptures.
  • The madhyama-adhikari has four qualities and all the instructions of the Upadesamrta are for him.
  • The uttama-adhikari, he does not need instructions; he never sees things externally, everything is related to the lilas that arise automatically within him.
  • The kanistha-adhikari has to do service to accumulate sukrti, he should also not take instructions.
  • The first verse of the Upadesamrta talks about how we should control our senses.
  • Teaching about Prahlada Maharaja’s lila and how Nrsimhadeva appeared from the pillar after His devotee said that He was there.
  • By chanting the Holy Names we develop four qualities: humility, tolerance, respect for others and not expecting respect from others.
