16 Jun 2023 evening – How Krishna Manifested the Form of Jagannatha (English) – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

June 16, 2023 6:52 PM

Krishna comes into the material world to protect dharma and devotees. Story of villagers gathering at the temple to pray to God for rain. Krishna’s three abode and His life in Dvaraka. Story of Varunadeva and the woodcutter who lost his axe in the lake. We come to this material world to do bhajana and sadhana. Hearing about Krishna’s pastimes destroys all impurities in the heart. Krishna’s children are not ordinary people, their bodies are sat-cit-ananda-vigraha. Krishna is...

16 Jun 2023 morning – Sankirtana-rasa and Gopi-rasa-dance (English) – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

June 16, 2023 8:17 AM

Seven groups of devotees accompanied the Ratha Yatra with Mahaprabhu dancing. The devotees of each group thought, “Mahaprabhu is dancing only in my group. Krishna also made the gopis think, “Krishna is dancing only with me. God can’t bear to see anyone proud. Krsna in the rasa dance and Radha’s mana. When Krsna plays the flute, only the gopis hear, they run to meet Him, and each one thinks, “Krsna is calling only for me. Without the guidance of the gopis, it is not...

Speaking is easy, listening is difficult. 3 types of listeners: shrota (one who listens); sarota (one who does not listen); and, sota (one who sleeps). Not listening to hari-katha is an offence, but if you also gossip during hari-katha, it is a much worse offence. We got the opportunity of the human body only after we were born into the 8,400,000 life forms. And the human body is given to us to hear hari-katha from the lotus-mouths of sadhus, gurus and vaisnavas. God is in hari-katha. Never...

15 Jun 2023 midday – Kali-yuga Worship Method (English) – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

June 15, 2023 12:30 PM

In Kali-yuga it is not possible to see the demigods in the fire sacrifice. The only method of self-realisation is the chanting of the holy names. About the problem of chanting mantras with wrong pronunciation, which led to the appearance of Vritrasura. In Kali-yuga there are many compromises. God accepts your mood, your sincere feelings at the time of offering.-Indradyumna Maharaja, his wife Gundica on the day of the fire ceremony, and her caste queen Abhimana. Gundica throws her nose ring into...

June 15, 2023 9:17 AM

You must all dance and sing, because then you will all be on Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s list. Ten principles of Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Krsna is avatari and saktiman. 5 main rasas, mukhya-bhakti-rasa: santa, dasya, sakhya, vatsalya, and madhurya.7 secondary rasas, gauna-bhakti-rasa: hasya, adbhuta, vira, karuna, raudra, bhayanaka and bibhatsa.

Snana-yatra lila. Mahaprabhu cleaned the Gundicha temple Himself and supervised the devotees to clean it. Anarthas: (1) svarupa-bhrama (illusion about spiritual identity), (2) asat-trsna (thirst for that which is unreal; that is, material enjoyment), (3) aparadha (offences) and (4) hrdaya-daurbalya (weakness of heart). Dharma, the topmost nature of people is to serve Krishna (CC Madhya 20.108). Song: Jiva jago jiva jago. Enechi ausadhi maya nasibara lagi’: Maha-mantra is the medicine...

June 14, 2023 3:46 PM

We should observe Ekadashi from the age of 8 to 80, otherwise it is optional according to the scriptures. Ekadashi is the mother of bhakti. Five types of food should not be eaten on Ekadashi; types of products that can be taken on Ekadashi. Ekadashi means upavasa – we should stay very close to the Lord and chant the maha-mantra. If you observe Ekadashi (Hari-vasari tithi), money will come. Lakshmi-devi is happy to see someone worshipping her husband. If Radharani (original Lakshmi-devi)...

Punya, done over many lifetimes, gives you the opportunity to host a sadhu in your home.

You do not come to a sadhu on your own; you are inspired by Paramatma, who acts on your good fortune and the punya-karma you have accumulated over many lives.

SB 11.14.20.

9 limbs of bhakti.

On body and soul.

Inevitable ageing of the body.

The soul changes bodies like a man changes clothes.

Lila on how Indra got the body of a pig.

We are all servants of Krishna.
