Glories of Lord Rama at Nashik

Maha Satsang on Parsva Ekadashi

ISKCON Nashik

14-09-2024

“uttishthata jagrata prapya varan nibodhata”(kathopanishad 1.3.14)

All these are the same words, hey humans , wake up and understand, Nibodhata, Nibodhata. You have to understand, you have got this boon. All are boons, getting human body is also a boon, more than this boon is to  make a relation to Srila Prabhupada , acharyas and other devotees of Lord and then disciples of Srila Prabhupada.

We are only disciples of Srila Prabhupada, my-self , Bhakti Charu Maharaja,  Gopal Krishna Maharaja, and  Nava Yogendra Maharaj etc but you are grand disciples,  to be grand disciples has more fortune then to be disciples . There is a long list of boons, to be born in India is also a boon, where Ganga, Jamuna and Godavari  flows, and then born at Panchvati, Nashik Dham is also a boon or not?

Jai Sri Ram

That painting is so real, when I came I saw the picture of Sri Ram and still looking it, Ram is sitting there and not only sitting he looking at me and looking at all of you. This is Ram’s Nashik, Nashik was named after Surpanakha’s nose, Nashik is a very ancient place.

Jevha navte charachar tevha hote pandharpur

You must have heard this, these dhams were Including Panchavati  Nasik is also eternal. The world has creation, existence and destruction. But Nasik ,  Vrindavan dham , Ayodhya dham  , Dwaraka dham, Pandharpur dham,  these are eternal places. We can say that Panchavati is 10 lakh years ancient at least . It means Ram came and stayed here 10 lakh years ago . It is possible that where we are sitting, Ram may have come here also. You must have heard the name of Ramtek, which is also called Ramgiri near Nagpur.  There was an ashram of Agastya Muni, who had said that if you want to live in Dandakaranya, then go forward, he gave the address and said you can stay on the banks of Godavari. Then Shri Ram came and stayed in parnakutir which is surrounded by 5 banyan trees. The reason why it is named Panchvati is because 5 meaning pancha and vati meaning banyan trees. They   are the witness that Shri Ram performed His pastimes.

While telling this I remembered, when I was in Los Angeles, California, there was a festival being celebrated ,bicentennial  or two hundredth anniversary that’s why I asked them what was going on, what festival was it, to which they replied that it was anniversary of Los Angeles City and they said it is a very old city, very old city. So I asked how old is your Los Angeles? To which they said 200 years old. So for them 200 years is too old of a time, where is 10 Lakh years and where 200 years, no comparison. This is an old ancient eternal religious abode of Prabhu Shri Ram. ‘keha bole purabe ravana vadhila‘. This is Ramgiri or Ramtek, Tek means pledge, God took a pledge, a vow to destroy all the demons, by raising his bow and arrow . He took a vow to destroy and kill all the demons on earth. Hence, it is called Ramtek meaning Vow of Ram. Lord Ram is known for His words, His vows, one word, one vow, one wife person.

So that way you all are the servant of this place, servant of Lord, which was pre-decided by Himself. Ayodhya resident, then Chitrakut resident and then Ramtek resident and then become Ramtek resident and then become Panchvati Nasik resident , and then Kishkindha resident, 4 months stayed there so many main main places,  there is half dozen of places where Ram stayed otherwise He was traveling almost places, remained a forest dweller. He lived like a forest dweller. (Jai Sri Ram… Jai Sri Ram …ho gaya kam) done work. ‘keha bole purabe ravan vadhila’

People say that jaya jaya jagannātha sacīra nandan tribhūvana kore jār caraṇa vandan Jai Jagannath Jai Sachira Nandan, Tribhuvana worships His feet.

Jagannath  became Ram, Sometimes came as Ram and sometimes as Shyam. I had heard that for the first time and they  said He becames Sai Baba,….and destroyed everything.

Golokera vaibhav lila prakash karila

Translation :

The pastimes of Goloka Vrindavan were manifested in Gokula by the Lord

In the end of dwapar same Jagannath, one name Jagannath, we can say Jagannath, whose Lord Jagannath.? He performed the pastimes of Gokul or Goloka in the end of Dwapara and became a resident of Gokul. and then move forward from there,  and then ‘sri-radhar bhave ebe

And then came Kaliyuga, and first evening of the Kaliyuga, evening means joint, joint of the Dwapara and Kaliyuga, in the end of Dwapara

Kali creates obstacles in the path of devotional service. When Bhagavan Munkunda Krsna,  shyam- tyaktva sva padam gatha, left from this planet and went to His planet.

tad dinat kali ayata

From that day Kaliyuga has come. Sarva sadhana badhaka, and it is an impediment everywhere and particularly in devotional service. It also puts us to sleep in class. But those who only chant the holy names do not get troubled by Kali. satyam satyam na samsayah means that it has been said twice over here that there is no doubt about this.

śri-rādhār bhāve ebe gorā avatār hare kṛṣṇa nām gaura korilā pracār

Jaya Jaya Jagannatha Sacira text 4 by vasudeva ghosh

Translation: It is He who has come. He has come! Oh, from Vraja He has come to Nadiya. Accepting the mood and luster of Sri Radha, He has come from Vraja to Nadiya. He has come! Now Lord Govinda, the cowherd boy, has come as Lord Gauranga. He has come to distribute the Hare Krsna Mahamantra!

Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu appeared in Radha conscious and He became Radha and preached hare kṛṣṇa nām gaura korilā pracār..

“Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare

Hare Ram Hare Ram Ram Ram Hare Hare”

Some personal reasons for appearance of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu .He wanted to  know Radha,’śrī-rādhāyāḥ praṇaya-mahimā kīdṛśo ‘ How is Radha’s love and glory? It was His query. Question of Lord  He became curious. It was one of the reason of appearance of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. At that time He stayed at Jagannath Puri for 18 years and out of 18 years 12 years He did this only

‘śrī-rādhāyāḥ praṇaya-mahimā kīdṛśo’

ekātmānāv api bhuvi purā deha-bhedaṁ gatau tau (cc adi 1.5)”

This is what Krishnadas Kaviraj Raj Goswami wrote at the beginning of Chaitanya Charitamrita, how Radha and Krsna are? They are one soul.

“ekatmanav api” Even though we have the same soul “ purā deha-bhedaṁ gatau tau”. They become two from one, and then one becomes Madan Gopal and the other Radha. And then Chaitanya akhyam, this is at the beginning of Dwapar Yuga or Kali Yuga

caitanyākhyaṁ prakaṭam adhunā tad-dvayaṁ caikyam āptaṁ

adhuna means now. Popularly known as Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, famous by the name of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, tad-dvayaṁ caikyam āptaṁ, one soul became two souls, one Radha and one Krsna, now what happens at the beginning of Kaliyuga tad-dvayaṁ caikyam, the two become one again,

rādhā-bhāva-dyuti-suvalitaṁnaumi kṛṣṇa-svarūpam

I bow again and again at the feet of such a Lord, he is so great, what is his speciality, “radha-bhava-dyuti” Dyuti meaning aura, meaning radiance, meaning light, one should adopt the mood of Radha and adopt the colour of Radha, what is the colour of Radha? tapta-kanchana-gaurangi, by adopting the same colour, the same body part, He became Gauranga, by staying in Jagannath Puri, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu made His personal reason behind His appearance successful in Jagannath Puri. But before that Chaitanya Mahaprabhu takes sannyas and

paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām dharma-saṁsthāpanārthāya sambhavāmi yuge yuge” (Bhagvad Gita 4.8)

Translation :

To deliver the pious and to annihilate the miscreants, as well as to reestablish the principles of religion, I Myself appear, millennium after millennium.

This is also routine business, what does God do when he appears, “paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām dharma-saṁsthāpanārthāya sambhavāmi yuge yuge

 

So he, Hari Hari, at this time Chaitanya Mahaprabhu does not kill the enemies with any weapon, Parashuram’s axe or bow and arrow like Rama or Sudarshan like Krishna, are you scared? Such Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is a kind of empty-handed, this is how he has taken refuge, and taught the world his conduct. All the great men themselves become devotees. Panchatyaatmakam Krishnam devotee form, which is the first Panchtatva, devotee form, then Swaroopkam then Shakti avatar, and then Shivas, etc Gaur devotees, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu himself becomes a devotee or devotee, devotee and devotee so which devotee has become a devotee, he has become Radha, and in the way, both of them worship each other. One is the God to be served and the other is the God who is a servant, so Chaitanya Mahaprabhu also becomes a servant and also serves Radha, so sometimes Radha becomes a servant or maid and serves Krishna, so in this incarnation, Shri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu becomes a servant in Radha bhaav and serves Radha, so apart from that, his “dharma-saṁsthāpanārthāya sambhavāmi yuge yuge

 

Om Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah Sarve Santu Niraamayaah | Sarve Bhadraanni Pashyantu

Maa Kashcid-Duhkha-Bhaag-Bhavet |

Translation

May everyone be happy, may everyone be free from diseases, may everyone’s life be blessed and no one becomes a part of sorrow. Oh God, grant us such a boon!

For this purpose, Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu also takes Sanyas and after Sanyas, he travels for six years which is called Madhya Leela, Adi Leela, Madhya Leela and Antya Leela. For six years, he departs from Jagannath Puri three times and returns three times. So in the first round, beginning with Orissa Jagannath Puri, he travelled to all the states of South India

sarvatra pracāra hoibe mora nāma”(C.B antya kanda 4.126).

He had also prophesied that my name will be propagated everywhere, it will happen everywhere. He did not stop after saying this pṛthivīte āche yata nagarādi grāma the name of the earth will be propagated in all the cities and villages on earth. He also said this. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu did what he said and demonstrated it. At least within India, when Prabhupada was asked why he did not propagate Harinam outside India, Prabhupada said that if he had propagated it everywhere, then what would we have done. Let this go up to the International Society for Krishna consciousness. So Chaitanya Mahaprabhu then via Karnataka enters Maharashtra, takes darshan of Mahalakshmi in Mahalakshmi temple in Kolhapur or gives darshan of Mahalakshmi. We do go to take darshan of him, but There Mahalakshmi came down from Vaikuntha, she landed in Kolhapur, you must know Bhrigu Muni was going, who is the best among Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh, who is the most tolerant, most tolerant is the best, so in this test Vishnu or Narayan passed the test, he passed, Jai Narayan, Jai ho.

 

So Bhrigu Muni came, stories, history, everything is there, so whatever Bhrigu Muni did, he came and kicked Bhagvan on His chest when Laxmi was serving his feet. You can imagine mothers, someone came and Laxmi could not tolerate it and she got angry, she did not agree and she left Vaikuntha and came to Kolhapur and did penance, so after that, after Vaikuntha, now the same Vishnu Adi Vishnu or Vaikuntha Nayak Shri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu ki Jai.

Vaikuntha Nayak also says, so He gave darshan, you understand, He gave darshan or took darshan, he explained and convinced a bit, and whatever happened. Hence, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu moves forward from there, Pandharpur Dham ki Jai and then comes to Pandharpur.

And then Pandharpur, Pandurang Gauranga,

kar katavari ttevoniya Tulsi haar gala kase pitambar |Aavde nirantar techi roop|

Translation

Standing on a brick, hands placed on waist. A garland of “tulasi” leaves adorns his neck,  yellow silken cloth, wrapped around his waist. I adore this image, unceasingly, constantly meditating on you. All these things are unthinkable, Pandurang Himself becomes Gaurang, and Gaurang is having darshan of Pandurang, he kept doing the same in other places and other dhams too, there is also a description that he bathed in Chandrabhaga in Pandharpur too, from there he went ahead of the main entrance and ran to reach the darshan mandap, he could not manage in Jagannath Puri, he did not reach Jagannath but reached Pandurang and Gaurang embraced Pandurang, embraced him deeply, there was a time when such visitors used to have darshan, now it has been stopped for some two and a half hundred years, why not, then Chaitanya Mahaprabhu must have done kirtan there, Mahaprabhu in the darshan mandap and there He comes to know, Shri Rangpuri, Shri Rangpuri, disciple of Madhavendra Puri, Shri Rangpuri, he was also present in Pandharpur on coming to know about this, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu ran to Shri Rangpuri and on seeing him, Shri Rangpuri did his Sastanga Dandavat Pranam and on seeing the gestures, actions, posture and gait of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Shri Rangpuri understood that this person must have some connection with the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition otherwise such bhava is not possible,

tṛṇād apisu-nīcena, nayanaṁ galad-aśru-dhārayāvadanaṁ gadgada-ruddhayā girā

( shikshashtakam verse 6 )

Translation

O my Lord, when will my eyes be decorated with tears of love flowing constantly when I chant Your holy name? When will my voice choke up, and when will the hairs of my body stand on end at the recitation of Your name?

All this was going on, so both of them remained there engaged in Hari Katha for seven days and seven nights, so in this way Chaitanya Mahaprabhu spent a little more time in Pandharpur, one is a place named Kohar in Andhra Pradesh on the bank of Godavari where he met Rai Ramananda, he stayed there for a week and when he reached Srirangam it was the time of Chaturmas, he stayed there also for four months, at other places Chaitanya Mahaprabhu used to go not just overnight but one night, sometimes in the middle of the night and when he came to know that everyone was awake and Mahaprabhu was leaving, then all the residents of Ayodhya were going behind Ram, the poor trees there were thinking that now we are immovable, we cannot even walk, if we also become human beings If we were there then we too would have followed Rama

“Soduni gela Ram, kasa mala Soduni gela Ram”

Without Ram I don’t get peace, I don’t know what to do, Soduni gela Ram, so just as the people of Ayodhya used to follow Rama, they went for one night only, then Ram wisely left from there, when everyone was resting there, Rama proceeded ahead, and the poor people of Ayodhya had to return to Ayodhya again; this used to happen, whenever Chaitanya Mahaprabhu would leave any village then in large numbers of people would start following him then Ram tricked and went forward and the residents of Ayodhya again had to return to Ayodhya. Same used to happen when Chaitanya mahaprabhu would leave any village then many many people would begin following him therefore to avoid that situation, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu would in the middle of the night when everyone was sleeping would get up and go forward, so the purport is that Chaitanya Mahaprabhu spent more time in a very few places, Pandharpur dham ki jai !

So Pandharpur is also one of that places , I think  11 or 14 days, atleast 11 days calculation is there in the Chaitanya Charitamrit. So from there Sri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu went to a confluence of two rivers named ‘Krishnavenna’, it’s in the Satara city.Sri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu went there and there used to be a class by the local people on the literature “Krishnakarnamrita” and Chaitanya mahaprabhu was also listening to it, the name “Krishnakarnamrita” means nectar for the ears so Chaitanya mahaprabhu copied that literature, he found the fifth chapter of Brahma Samhita already near the Kanyakumari in the ‘Adikeshav temple’, he took that also and from Satara he took Krishnakarnamrit and then he reached Nashik too, he was going to share all that books with the vaishnava’s in Jagannath puri so Chaitanya mahaprabhu came here , Nashik dham ki jai !

‘saptatāla-vṛkṣa’ dekhe kānana-bhitara ati vṛddha, ati sthūla, ati uccatara (CC Madhya 9.312)

Translation

Within that forest Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu then visited a place called Saptatāla. The seven palm trees there were very old, very bulky and very high.

So in this area Dandakaranya he saw seven trees , they were too old, stiff, huge, tall,

saptatāla dekhi’ prabhu āliṅgana kailasaśarīre saptatāla vaikuṇṭhe calila (CC Madhya 9.313)

Translation

After seeing the seven palm trees, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu embraced them. As a result, they all returned to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, the spiritual world.

 

Chaitanya mahaprabhu one after the other he embraced each and every tree, as soon as he embraced the trees they went to Vaikuntha with their gross body ,not that only the soul, their branch, sub-branch and trunk as they were proceeded to Vaikuntha

śūnya-sthala dekhi’ lokera haila camatkāra loke kahe, e sannyāsī–rāma-avatāra (CC Madhya 9.314)

Translation

After the seven palm trees had departed for Vaikuṇṭha, everyone was astonished to see them gone. The people then began to say, “This sannyāsī called Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu must be an incarnation of Lord Rāmacandra.

There was neither the evidence not the tree or roots, and many people must have seen this scene, the ancestors of you all, when they saw that scene what were they saying ? “loke kahe, e sannyāsī–rāma-avatāra“, this miracle, there were seven trees everyone used to see , maybe they were taking selfies with special trees but they are no more,when everyone saw this miracle they were thinking “this renunciant is shri Ram, Jai shree ram !”he shri ram aahet “, who else can have such power except Ram ?.( What life is, a life without Ram ?) Some people say life without your embrace (mundane song).there is no peace in life without Ram! just by saying ‘Ra’, we are freed from all the sins, and by saying ‘ma’,t he sins do not enter back again. Jai shree Ram!.

“rama rama rameti rame rame manorame”,

“bramha bole chaturmukha krsna krsna hare hare

mahadev panchmukhe ram ram hare hare”,

Lord Shiva says to ‘manoramā’ Parvati, oh Manorame “aham rame” I relish , what you relish ?, “rāme” , “aham rāme rame manorame”, this is how Sanskrit language is, sweet. So

 “prabhu āsi’ kaila pampā-sarovare snāna pañcavaṭī āsi, tāhāṅ karila viśrāma (CC Madhya 9.316)

Translation

Eventually Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu arrived at a lake known as Pampā, where He took His bath. He then went to a place called Pañcavaṭī, where He rested.

Shri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu came to Panchavati also and there he took rest, this is so summarised right ?I mean in Chaitanya Charitamrita it should have been described in detail, but whatever reason anyway it’s very summarised, or say the ocean is filled in a pot.

So Shri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu embraced those trees and delivered them, this miracle is already written but Krishna Das Kaviraj goswami also did not want to repeat it. Pastimes of every place especially the kirtan pastimes of Chaitanya mahaprabhu, Krishna Das Kaviraj Goswami was very aged, his hands were shivering, he writes on different places why he is describing in summary, he had no time, he was also counting days left for his departure, but because it was the order of Vrindavan’s Radha Madan mohan, and it was the intense desire of the vaishnava’s that he should write so he was writing, something’s are very short what to do. So certainly here also shri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu must have done maha sankirtan. Chaitanya mahaprabhu’s chief pastimes are these kirtan pastimes only. “sundara-bālāśacī-dulālānācataśrī-hari-kīrtanameń“, Hari used to dance in the kirtans,

mahāprabhoḥ kīrtana-nṛtya-gīta-vāditra-mādyan-manasorasena

So just as in Vrindavan Krishna is popular for ‘rāsa’ dance, that same Krishna when become’s Shri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu his chief pastime become’s kirtan lila, “kīrtanīyaḥsadāhariḥ”.  He used to never walk, He would always dance. So here also very much kirtan and dance, that time, 500 years before’s Nasik, Panchavati form will be restablished, the population of this place would be less at that time but this used to happen, when people would come to know that Chaitanya mahaprabhu has reached today to Panchavati, Nasik.

Then  thousands and lakhs of people of different areas would gather here, who was the promoter? There was no SMS, E-mail or Instagram, nothing but Sachinandan Chaitanya mahaprabhu would give such inspiration to the living entities that they used to run ( towards him). So this kind of maha sankirtan has happened in Nasik too and then in the middle of all of us Shri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu ,bāhu tule, bāhu tule, raising His hands that beautiful Gauranga, Shri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu was the mine of beauty, and golden form! There was no one in the universe having golden form, is there anyone golden now ? No golden, black – yes , brown -yes, white we may get in Kashmir or in foreign but golden form!, anyway everyone likes gold they are attracted to gold.

” Go ” for “Gauranga”, “go” for “Gauranga”, so Shri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu with everyone of Nasik present there has done kirtan and dance here and while doing kirtan they it seemed like all the people of Nasik were the puppets in the hands of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and he was the puppeteer so he would make them all dance. Haribol! This way he would pick them up and then drop them and Shri Krishna Chaitanya mahaprabhu was a very tall personality and the people of Nasik were not very tall so mahaprabhu would not require any stage everyone could see him, first of all he was tall and then,

“ājānu-lambita-bhujau”

His arms were very long then He would fly high in the sky, and it was enough to do kirtan just once with Chaitanya mahaprabhu, so do not think that He sent to Vaikuntha only seven trees by embracing them, 500 years ago whoever came in contact with Chaitanya mahaprabhu and with him whoever participated in kirtan and dance, by Chaitanya mahaprabhu’s embrace or by his association if trees can go to Vaikuntha then what to speak of humans!.

Devotees: Hari bol !!

There is a possibility that those present here were not  present in that kirtan.If you would be there then. But it is little better late than never. The thing is about better late than never. Again Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has appeared, he is here and to fulfill the prediction of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Bhakti Siddhanta Sarasvati Thakur in 1922 told ,Abhay babu to go to foreign and do what ?

. “sarvatra pracara haibe gurangera  nama”

Preach the message of Krsna conscious and establish Bhagavat dharma and to fulfill this instructions Srila Prabhupada goes to foreign and establishes Krsna conscious movement.

!Srila prabhupada ki jai!

His movement is spreading everyone, it has reached Nashik also. Hari! Hari! .From the last 50,60 years a lot has happened which we say as revolution in consciousness. Not only revolution of thoughts but also revolution of expression. This are expressions, lusty sins , expressions of sins, this change in expressions consciousness  is happening in the whole world .So those who have come in contact with Chaitanya mahaprabhu has been benefited from Chaitanya mahaprabhu Kaliyuga’s Ram is Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Kaliyuga’s Krsna is Chaitanya mahaprabhu. He gave his darsana in six armed form  to Sarvabhum Bhattacharya in Jagannath Puri .Three of them were together Ram, Krsna and Chaitanya. So for us Chaitanya mahaprabhu is the closest Srila Prabhupada ki jai ! Srila Prabhupada has favoured the whole world, we are indebted to him. Yes or No ? Yes.

So someone asked how we can get free from this debt to Prabhupada. We are indebted to you, how can we become free from this debt ? Prabhupada said “not possible”. Firstly he said it is impossible then took a pause then Prabhupada said “you could do one thing” .So devotees asked what is that ? Prabhupada replied. Prabhupada said a very famous statement, “You do as I did.” You do as I did or what I started you take make more forward and expand .By such efforts we can become a bit free. We are indebted to Prabhupada and also his disciples so to become free from this debt,

kṛṣṇa se tomāra, kṛṣṇadīte pāro,tomāra śakati āche.

So you have got Sri Krsna Chaitanya mahaprabhu with you in many forms so to give this Krsna to others, “you all are capable.”

Devotees: Hari bol!!

So finally Sri Chaitanya mahaprabhu said,

bhārata-bhūmite haila manuṣya janma yāra janma sārthaka kari’ kara para-upakāra

(CC adi 9.41)

Translation

One who has taken his birth as a human being in the land of India [Bhārata-varṣa] should make his life successful and work for the benefit of all other people.

You have taken birth in Bharat. Is anyone here born in Bharat? Yes? Or born in India? Some person told me that he is not Indian, he is Bharatiya. This way he said that he is not Indian and he is a Bharatiya now. Again the time has come to become Bharatiya. Srila Prabhupada has not only made Indian’s Bharatiya made Americans also Bharatiya

Devotees: Hari bol !!

He made Australians also Bharatiya, made Africans also Bharatiya. So take Krsna conscious forward and forward by everyone being together. The numbers are increasing day by day and it is the need of the hour, it is only needed. What does a jivaneed  ? Tell what does a fish need? Fish needs water like that jiva does not want anything. Give the world to it, the jiva wouldn’t be happy. He won’t be happy !! Won’t be happy !! The jiva needs bhagavan.

Devotees: Hari bol!!

So Hare Krsna Hare krsna krsna krsna Hare Hare

Hare Ram Hare Ram Ram Ram  Hare Hare is also bhagavan .

This Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna is bhagavan Sri Chaitanya mahaprabhu brought this bhagavan with himself and distributed it Radha Madan Gopal ki jaii !! This is bhagavan. Gita, bhagavad are vangmaye murti .  Shastra are themselves bhagavan.

ya svayampadmanabhasya, mukha-padma viniharita

Like this many forms ,dham is also one of the lord’s form . Svaprasadanndilobhai , this you all know Mahaprasadegovinde, today we don’t have to take grain but  prasad is also one of the form of lord, there are many forms of lord. This all has been packed in Iskcon we do its packaging and home delivery we also do, specially Srila prabhupada’s book preaching of Harinam and hosting festivals. Different different festivals are conducted. Thank you that you came and whatever I said think about it and “stop, think and proceed”.

Something else on this ishtagoshti “bodhayantaḥparasparam”,etc can happen. Krsna dhan, krsna dhan, you have got Krishna’s wealth and company ,you are part of the team. We are of the same family, we are one family, “Vasudeva Kutumbakam”. Thank you !
