05 Feb 2026 evening – The Importance of Sadacara: Virtuous Behavior (English) – Sao Paulo, Brazil

– Mahaprasada of Krsna and mahamahaprasada of Krsna and His pure devotee.
– ⁠What it’s like to become a Vaisnava: tṛṇād api su-nīcena taror iva sahiṣṇunā… (CC Adi-lila 17.31).
– ⁠The thirteen apasampradayas: aola, baola, karttabhaja, neda, darvesa, sai, sahajiya, sakhi-bheki, smarta, jati-gosai,
atibadi, cudadhari and gauranga-nagari.
– Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada did not accept apasampradayas because their followers do not practice the four principles and lead a disorderly life.
– The Hari Bhakti Vilasa is a book that presents the rules that devotees should follow.
– Song: Gopinatha.
– Gurudeva inspires devotees to progress in spiritual life. We must remain in sadhu-sanga.
– Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati said: “I did not come to this world to make disciples, I came to make gurus.”
– Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati is Nayana Manjari and Srila Bhaktivinoda is Kamala Manjari.
– ⁠Srila Bhaktivinoda was a judge; he worked during the day and at night went out on horseback to preach the Holy Names and suddha-sadacara throughout the villages.
– Lila from the dialogue between Srila Bhaktivinoda and Maya.
– Acarya means “one who teaches by example.”
– Story of the sahajiyas singing a song by Srila Bhaktivinoda while a dog ate the fish they had prepared for them.
– Beautiful lila by Srila Bhakti Prajnana Kesava, formerly Vinoda Bihari, saving the life of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada by preventing the sakhi-bhekis and sahajiyas from killing him.
– We must inspire people; the essence of spiritual practice is chanting the Hare Krishna Mahamantra.
– ⁠You are chanting the Holy Names and one day you will become pure devotees.
– Have firm faith in Guru Parampara, for this is the foundation of our sadhana.
– Swami Prabhupada did not come to Brazil, but today Srila Gurudeva Vana Maharaja said he saw him in the namasankirtana performed in the streets of São Paulo.
