18 Sep 2024 morning – The Gopis Search for Krishna (English translation) | Brisbane, Australia | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

September 18, 2024 8:27 AM

Opposite bhavas of Krishna and Radha: While Krishna is in vamya-bhava, Radharani is in dakshina-bhava. Radhika’s love increases and increases. Vamyata and kutilata. Vrindavana-Krishna does not make a step out of Vrindavana. The gopis ask every tree in Vrindavana if it has seen Krishna. A funny story: a widower lost his wife and no one suggested him as a replacement for his wife. The gopis were favourable to Tulasi and then not (vamya-bhava). Why did Krishna not come back to the gopis after...

16 Sep 2024 morning – Viruddha Dharma of Radha and Krsna (Hindi) | Brisbane, Australia | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

September 16, 2024 9:14 AM

Bhagavan always stands by His devotees. Virudda-dharma (paradoxes) of Krsna and Srimati Radhika. Srimati Radhika shows Her compassion to the drowning elephant. The Lord is bhakta-vatsalya. Krsna is sarva-abyata, He resides in everything and everyone in the form of Paramatma. Song: Radha Krpa Kataksa. Nayka (Hero) and Nayaka (Heroine), and Their moods. Pastime of the wife devoted to her husband as if he were God. The gopis demonstrate vamya-bhava (oppositional mood) and Krsna demonstrates...

10 Sep 2024 midday – Svarupa Damodara Katha (English) | Murwillumbah, Australia | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

September 10, 2024 12:34 PM

Reasons why Svarupa Damodara is very prominent in Mahaprabhu’s lila. Yamuna-puline and Palya-dasi kori bhajana’s (Sri Gaudiya Giti-Guccha pages 115 & 130). Lalita Sakhi will give palya-dasi bhava. All katha regarding palya-dasi bhava and Ekadasa-bhavas are in Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura’s Jaiva-Dharma. Dekhite Dekhite bhajana (Sri Gaudiya Giti-Guccha page 114). First give up bodily conception then we can desire to be born in Yavat. The compassion of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu, setting His...

17 Jul 2024 midday – Krishna and the Gopis at Kurukshetra (English) | Itajai, Brazil | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

July 17, 2024 12:16 PM

The gopis meet Krishna in Kurukshetra and reproach Him for His behaviour. The gopis feel anger when Krishna suggests that they meditate on the Lord. Ishvara-koti (Hiranya-garbha) and Jiva-koti (Vairajya) Brahmas. The gopis criticise Brahma in vamya-bhava, but actually they glorify him. The gopis admire the form of Krishna. It’s very difficult to give up the desire for name, fame and reputation. Never criticise anyone and no need to glorify him. The story of how a thief transferred...

03 Jul 2024 morning – Rasas and Their Qualities (English) – London, United Kingdom | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

July 3, 2024 8:27 AM

Qualifications and the prominent sevakas in shanta, dasya, sakhya, vatsalya and madhurya-rasas. Shloka: itthaṁ satāṁ brahma-sukhānubhūtyā dāsyaṁ gatānāṁ para-daivatena (SB 10.12.11). Impersonalists do not believe that Krishna has a form and the qualities. Lila of Durvasa Rishi who became speechless as he was taking darshana of Krishna in Ramana-reti. Shloka: kṛṣṇa bhuli’ sei jīva anādi-bahirmukha (CC Madhya 20.117). We are here, in maya-karagara, the jail of maya, because we forgot Krishna...

September 23, 2023 10:06 PM

Radha attracts Krishna and Krishna attracts Radha. The sacrifice the gopis make for Krsna. Shyness is a characteristic of women only. Pure love has no boundaries. Bhakti is natural, spontaneous and requires nothing in return, it is not a business relationship. Krsna in the form of dhira-lalita-nayaka. Krsna is completely controlled by the prema of Srimati Radhika. Daksina-bhava (submissive mood) and vamya-bhava ( contrary mood). To understand the different tattvas, one should read Jaiva Dharma...
