19 Dec 2025 evening – We Are Eternal Servants of Krishna (English) – Mexico City, Mexico | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

  • Human life is very rare, and only in this life form can we perform devotional service to the Supreme Lord.
  • The conditioned soul cannot perform devotional service properly because it has many defects.
  • In other yugas (eras), people performed harsh austerities, fire sacrifices, and meditation.
  • In this Kali-yuga, the recommended process is very simple: chanting the Holy Names, but care must be taken not to commit the ten offenses.
  • Guru-bhogi are those gurus who are absorbed in sense gratification.
  • The Guru plants the seed of bhakti in the disciple’s heart through the mantra, and it needs to be watered every day by the disciple.
  • If we do not listen to Harikatha (lectures about Lord Hari), the seed of devotion will never sprout.
  • This seed has the power to serve Krishna, since the conditioned soul has a natural tendency to serve Maya.
  • By great good fortune we arrived at the Krishna consciousness movement.
  • Regarding the four reliable sampradayas.
  • Every day we need to read and recite the song that speaks about our Guru Parampara (the disciplic succession line).
  • In the transcendental world, Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura is Kamala Manjari, and he brought as his own son the manjari Nayana Mani Manjari (Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada).
  • The places where elevated Vaisnavas visit are called Mahatirtha.
  • People who criticize others end up absorbing the defects of those they criticize.
  • Regarding the story of the brahmana who criticized a pure devotee and had to have several births with leprosy.
  • All the places in Vrndavana have the footprints of Srimati Radhika.
