August 12, 2023 4:03 PM

Radha controls Krsna with Her maan (transcendental anger), a very high feeling in parakiya-bhava. Maan is like the goad that controls the elephant (man-ankusam). Song: Śrī Rādhā-kripa-kaṭākṣa-stava-rāja. Krsna runs after Radharani. Jayadeva Gosvami talks about the spring rasa dance. About the stimuli created in Gurudeva’s heart by seeing the sea of Jagannatha Puri. Harikatha destroys all the anarthas of the heart. It’s no use taking a bath in the waters of holy places without...

How do you get paramarthiki-shraddha? You must have unshakable faith (atyantiki-shraddha). Paramarthiki-shraddha awakens with mature sukriti. Ajnata-sukriti and jnata-sukriti. Eight types of worship of Tulasi Devi. Ganga, Tulasi and Giriraja Govardhana are very important in Kali-yuga and will gradually disappear. The conditioned soul seeks sense gratification. The love and affection in the hearts of the gopis. The lila of Kurukshetra at the Samanta-panchaka site: the meeting of the queens of...

June 15, 2023 6:34 PM

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...

PART 1 God gives us the human form of life after 8,400,000 lower forms. Four undesirable things that are in the heart of the conditioned soul: svarupa-bhrama (incorrect understanding that the material body is the true identity), hrdaya-daurbalya (weakness of heart), asat-trsna (lust for material pleasure) and aparadha (offense). Don’t waste time, this is not your first life. Story of the blind man who was in a stadium and couldn’t find the exit. Sloka:ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanaṁ bhava...
