Text 35.

O Sinless One because the supreme Personality of God and the controller of all living entities is the Father of all religions and all those who are candidates for religious activities, kindly describe how we can be completely satisfied. All religious activities are meant optimally to satisfy the Supreme Personality of God. The Lord is the Father of all religious principles as stated by the 164 kinds of pious men, the needy, the distressed, the enlightened and the inquisitive. Approach the Lord in devotional service and their devotion is mixed with material affection. But above them are the pure devotees whose devotion is not hindered by any that we are tinges of primitive work or speculative knowledge. Those who are holding the Spirit throughout their life are compared to demons. They are bereft of all knowledge in spite of any academic educational career they may pursue.

Such miscreants are never candidates for satisfying the Lord. Chapter 7 also actually text 32, 33, 34 and 35. I am up there. 1992 Cristanto 17th of january, 505 morocco the holy year of rc chakra mahatra. Is asking many the following Christians of Maitreya. In this way. He signed an example. There’s no talenting. There’s no lack of faith, simply a desire to know transcendental things from this great world. He has to describe dharmaksha, how to work, how law and order is mentioned in the revealed scriptures. Very different items but the most important came in verse 35 for how the personality in Nazareth is the controller of all since he’s the controller of all living entities and power of all religion and he’s the goal for all religious people. So we wanted to know how the Lord can be completely separated.

So since all religious activities are meant to satisfy the world therefore this is the most important point. Everything else is leading up to satisfy the Lord. If the Lord is satisfied then he can reveal everything to us. The Lord is not satisfied and everything is a failure. Yesterday was a codecine. The devotees fast but the Lord doesn’t fast. The Lord takes prashad as usual because the Lord is sinless there’s no question of him getting any sin. We don’t take grains because the graves contain sin the charity since the Lord is beyond sin so there’s no need for him to observe that. So today is the appearance day of Pandit Sangadish Pandit was a friend of Jagannath Mishra and according to Chaitanya Chandavida Jagadese founder brother. So on a currency day Jagadeesh Pandey J had made a feast for the Kṛṣṇa deity.

They were somewhere like in Surughan site about 2 km from Māyāpur Little Caitanya Mahaprabhavi when he was only a few years old he started to cry and that he was too old, just very small but he was able to talk. He was crying and crying so his father asked what’s wrong? He said, you have your eyes. Zegati’s Punjab are having a big feast today on a pharaoh. So I want to have that Vishada I want to have that offering myself. So Sagarath Nisha was amazed because such a little baby didn’t even teach what a Pharisee was. She was surprised that he was talking about a Pharisee. So then he decided to then Lord she wouldn’t stop crying until he took it to Jagadeesh, found his house. He said well why not let’s go and see what happens.

When he got to the house he saw that one of the deities they were arranging so many offerings Hundred offerings of war. And Lord Chaitanya he was there Little baby, little tuck because he was crying until he came to that place he was quite happy. So then Jagannath Miśra told him what happened that he wants to take the offering. So Jagadish Pander and the Rajya Pandir they looked at Morocci Tanya and immediately their heart was affected and without education they took all the offerings. Instead offering them to their deity, they offered all of them to Devī Chaia. They felt that Kṛṣṇa has come in the form of his baby and we should give offerings to him. Although philosophically there may not be a clear reason.

But these devotees in their heart they felt a spontaneous love for Lord Caitanya as the supreme Lord and they wanted to offer give this peace. So although Lord Caitanya is covered, he’s actually Kṛṣṇa but he’s not revealing to anyone. But Jagadeesh project was such a pure devotee that he immediately internally said that actually this is the Lord. Of course some scrupulous persons may do the same for us back really our heart. But in this case Jayadi’s hundred was right. He said this is the Lord and he offered all the offerings and this way the heart and the tear Devoli the who describes about Oops. Jaganese planet. He’s most considered a branch of what she tell you I had a branch of Nifty Rhonda. Of chapter 11 it states it says. Kṛṣṇa premavita vashi general harsham.

Jagadesh taught that 16th branch of Lord Nitya’s followers was the deliverer of the entire world. The most Olav Kṛṣṇa showered from him like fire of rain. Descriptions of Jagabeet’s pardon are available from Chaitanya Bhagavad Avi Leela and chaitanya chennai chapter 14 he belongs to the village of Yashoda Java in the district of Nadia near the Chestna railway station. His father, the son of Upra Zayan was named Kamalatsa. Both his father and mother were great devotees of Lord Vishnu and after their death Sangadisha with his wife Dukkhini and brother Mahesha left his birthday and came to Śrī Māyāpur to live in the company of Jagannath Vistra and Udevaishnava. Lord Chitaki asked Jagadisha to go to Jagannath Purī to preach the Harinam Sankirta movement.

After returning to Jagannath Purī on the order of the Lord Jagadh, he established deities of Jagadh in the village of Yashoday Grava. It is said that when Jagadeesh pandit brought the deity of Jagadath to Yashoday Grava he tied the heavy deity to a stick and thus brought him to the village. The Priests of the tag will still show the stick used by Jagadese padre to carry the Jagadh bean. Actually Prophet went to see this temple of Deviji’s cousin and he did a table program in chakra. So they also showed us the stick just tied Jagannath to the stick. It was too big to carry. So he just kind of came on his own tied to the stick very easily. Their Prabhupāda was preaching to the local villagers. How fortunate they were to have this associate of Chaitan Mahamadou appearing in their place.

Therefore they should all. So Jagadish did he first saw Lord Chaitanya and his sire that after that he would often ask go to Jagadath, visit his house and see the Lord. When the Lord started the Sankircha movement. That means Jagadish already was grown up older. Then he also joined the Sankirta movement of Otanya. Then he also came back from Jagannath Purī and he joined Lord Nithyananda’s preaching as well. And when the devotees from Bengal would go to Jagannath prayer Jagdish Pandit would also accompany them. Prabhupāda also went to the temple of Mahesh Khan, his brother. I remember. I think I mentioned before how Rabbi there had feasts of local village that every Sunday they should put all their food together, all their grains and ingredients together. Prepare nicely as the offering for the Lord of the Deity.

There at Maheshpada Śrīpad offered to the Lord at all things for Charlotte. In this way everyone could have a natural feast without costing anything extra. In this. Text 70 of chapter 10 it states. The 31st branch of Jagadesh Pandit and the 32nd was the Raja Mahasoy unto whom Lord Chaitanya his childhood showed his causes mercy. Jagadish padre was formerly a great fair dancer Kṛṣṇa Leela and was known as Chandra Hasan. Regarding Hiranya Bhatir. It is said that once Lord Nikananda decorated with valuable jewels made as in Paul and a great need to do all night long under the jewel but was unsuccessful. Later he came to. See from this house. But somehow he’s not able to. Every time he’s d. In the end, simply by association of Lord Nitin he surrenders to Nitinanda Prabhu and achieves all potential.

This is the mercy of Nitāi work. Even someone is coming to steal from the Lord. He’s getting the mercy. Who can imagine how merciful. What. Previously known as the go to the Lord with great devotion and humility. Who would completely go to the Lord without any other desire. They would get the mercy. But here a thief came to steal from the Lord. Came to take the Lord all ornament and enjoyment of his own Sanskritification. But anyway, spite of that offensive mentality, Lord Naza gave him the mercy. And in the end the thief was purified and he surrendered at the holy seat of Lord Jagai Malai came to feed Mark. That doesn’t mean if you want to get the mercy of Morgan t you have this fuel from his temple. Sometimes the devotees are not so merciful as Nick Yevada. They catch your feet.

They don’t make him a devotees. Give over to the police. You cannot irritate Lord. You can understand. You can imagine a Nicki minor who was so merciful. If you thought about this demand there begging for mercy, what would be the difficulty? He’s giving even when they’re trying to steal. If he goes to give any beg for the first thing, then why won’t he give it? He’s so masterful. So it explains this about the pastime I mentioned. Cutting the house beg boost up on the economy. They hate them personally. For four the judge of the staff of economy and discussion and for the Mohis. Unaccustomedly there are more restrictions regarding foodstuffs that may be offered to the Lord. Lord Vishnu and his ecstasy as Vishnu Tattva. Sometimes Lord Chaitanya would go into the ecstasy of Vishnu Tattva.

Although he is covered, that means he voluntarily came as devotees. And he does not reveal that he’s actually Kṛṣṇa. Just like sometimes the great kings will go amongst their constellations to know what they’re taking. Similarly, Bharati came amongst all the devotees, but he was disguised as the devotee himself. But sometimes the Lord would go into such ecstasy that he would forget that he was supposed to act as a devotee. And he was simply acting as a digītāl physician as Vishnu Katta. This only happened in very real occasion. When he was a little child, this happened and he took the offerings meant for him. See, the offerings are meant for him. And Jagadish wanted to offer to Kṛṣṇa. So there Kṛṣṇa was. Why he won’t take that. So at that day he knew their offering. No one else knew.

Jagannath Misa, they didn’t know, said they were offering Kṛṣṇa. Why they won’t tell anybody else? Because everyone else is fasting. So they didn’t tell anybody. This is for Kṛṣṇa. But how did Lor tell? You know, it was better for him what heard as such an ecstasy. Of reward. He accepted his devotees offering directly. Such is the mercy of the Lord that He directly came and accepted his devotee offering with his own hand and mouth. Normally the Lord looks over the offering and accepts it, but here the Lord mercifully came and ate.

(Side B of the Cassette)

Please take your view here before. I only take after I offer to my deity. So it’s very nice to prepare a feast for your daily. Your Devī has been traveling with you many times, only taking food and roots and various things. So today we will give you all the ingredients. Vegetables, milk, beans, rice, sal. Everything you need. You can have a little feast and offer it to your bees. So the Brāhmaṇa prepared his own hand. He’s preparing a nice feast for his deity. Put the plate in front of the deity. What is the meditation? And in the meditation, when we offer, we’re to say, we’re not this body with a pure spirit soul. We are the eternal service of the Lord. And with a meditation, we request the Lord. Please come accept this offering.

So while he’s meditating on the Lord, calling him Gopal, come take this offering. Apparently, almost out of nowhere, just maybe like a year later, little Lord Chicania came up and started. Idiot puppet opened his mouth, his eyes and he was shocked. What’s going on? Oh no. This child is worth the offering. Zoe, what do you think? What are you doing? Stop that. And he went to beat the baby lord. The child lord. And watch him having a rank jagannist started chasing him. But then the mendicari shoved off and grabbed, talking about Misha. I said, please don’t. Don’t be him. He’s just a little baby. He doesn’t know that this is a right and wrong. He doesn’t know that he made a mistake. How you punish a little child with innocence. It’s all right. It’s just my karma. It’s my luck.

Whatever my fortune, the Lord doesn’t want me to eat. Today I am used on cakings. Offering the Lord some very simple offering. Just give me some food. I will offer it. No, no. You come to our house, sir. You are a guest. How can you let you just eat fruit? You must have a full meal. Rice, cow, subsidize everything you please. One more time you ask. We will clean everything again. Nothing for you. Just have to cook it. We will cut everything, we will wash everything. We will do all the work. We will. You just have to put on the fire and cook for your view. Please. Oh, that everyone is employing you. But please, one more time. This time we will put the child far away.

So that time the lady was taking the child away and said, while you’re eating your vomit, or why you’re eating the orphan before it offered the Lord. Kamshi law is wrong. But this is what Satania was in ecstasy at that time of Ishtu Kakla. She was joking with them for Babada lady. Wrong. But I am not a babad. I am a coward boy. For a coward boy. What’s wrong with you? Offering. Everyone smiling and laughing. And the ladies are looking. What’s he talking about? Caldasord? And no one could understand what was a purport of what he was saying until much later. So they put the Lord in another room. There he went to sleep. So then offering was ready. And all this about sunset. The Brahmin looked at the offering. They looked around. Lord, she said he was resting, nobody was around.

So then again he went in meditation. Gopal. Gopal, come accept the offering. All of a sudden, as if out of nowhere came little divine. And he started eating the offering again. The brown is. What’s going on? No. Oh no. Oh no. You this time he think I am going to teach you a lesson. Now what are you doing taking this outfit. He goes chasing out of the stick. Watcher runs under the bed, Runs here, runs in the little room. Hides behind that clay pot. Where he go? Where’d he go? He’s looking forward a stick. I get the power of the gambler. No, no. I can’t take it. Don’t beat me. Capital spouse. Please. It’s not his fault. Please don’t do it. Jagad Mishra. And he was just so concerned that the prophet said now you just give me food. No, nothing else. Just fruits.

I am going to offer fruits. Jagadam Mishra was really feeling bad because he couldn’t offer his guests a meal he couldn’t give up for Shalom. They were just sitting with his hand in his head, really frustrated. Everybody was really down. They all wanted to serve his vaishalam. And they couldn’t do it because twice this offering had been spoiled. They thought he was spoiled because they don’t know Nehemiah’s bishop. They think Nehemiah is this ordinary child and he eat at the offering before Kṛṣṇa. So now it can’t be offered. Cannot eat an offering before Kṛṣṇa to start to be the first eat it. Actually Kṛṣṇa was eating it anyway. It just so happened. At that time the elder brother of Lord Chaitanya Vista Rūpa came. And Vista rūpa was about 14 years old. 12 Or 14 he was.

When he walked in the room, the prophet just suddenly became attracted to him. And he was Śrīla Prabhupāda was also attracted to the Lord. That’s why he couldn’t Stand to see Shaggy Bhagir. But because of the whole anxiety of eating the offering the sentiment was a little confused with so many other sentiments. But when he saw Shankarsha and Dave Vishnu Sahara himself was also the older brother of Lord Jaitanya Sankara. So when he came in the room and there was no other distraction, Anita didn’t mimic him. He could say, who is this child? Who is the ultimate mother and father of this child? I have never seen a boy co attractive in my life. I mean he’s got all the qualities of a great soul. And I don’t know if something draws me to him. It’s so attractive.

Of course he’s son Kaishani is all attractive. So he was just praising this boy, this tankaisana. He heard from the parents and the family members what happened? Who is this medicine? And he went and he spoke and his voice was so sweet. It was just like music to the ears of his Mexican. And he said, my dear sir, we are all blessed by your presence in our homes. You are a graceful wandering from place to place. Coming to the house of our fallen householders who are attached to homestead and house and family members and so many attachments. And you have come here just to liberate us. You are very detached. You are just living in the forest, seeing leaves and buried. And we are many attachments. So when a guest comes to our house, we are very attached to wanting to serve you.

And because we are not able to serve you, all the family members have very prospered. But because for you are very rebelled. For you doesn’t make any difference. Even as you fasted up to now you’re always fasting in the forest. So you give this to a little more kinder ton. And please prepare an offering for your dear people. Take prasad. All be very happy. My mother, my father, everyone will be very happy if you give us this Francis to let us give you all the ingredients again to offer to your dearly. And thank you so much. Because he so sweetly protected him. He was so attracted to this Shalu. And although the mendicant was completely determined he wasn’t going to accept. This is an offer fruits and forget it. But before pleasing the Lord actually he accepted.

Although he didn’t know that this was the Lord. But in his heart he felt him. So he wanted to do whatever this wanted. He could not say no to this rub’s request. Even though logically it didn’t make any sense to just take fruit. But still because he was requested. So he did that he prepared him. Okay, I will do it. Haribo all chopped up. And they cleaned the kitchen again. Washed his house again. Washed the rice, cut the south cheese, cut everything. Gave him the ingredients that he was cooking. Then everything was going on till later night. So they put Lorchikania asleep in another house. They all went to sleep. So this time it was like midnight. But finally the whole thing was read. He took the offering, looked around, nobody in sight. Everybody went to sleep. Nobody was even in the room.

This time again he started meditation local commentatious offering. And again, almost out of nowhere, Moshe immediately came. And then he saw Watson coming down again. He said, no, what are you doing? No, not again. And Watson, why he was sens. He started giving up. And you’re asking me to come. You’re calling me to come. Start coming. And then he changed his form and revealed himself his Mosul. And there the men he saw the object of his worship. The form of Mosal, who was worshipping every day impersonate before him. And he was just overwhelmed. And he jumped down on the ground and he was, you know, praying his obedience. Is this a completely overwhelming ecstasy. Every time when it say something, you can overwhelm the distances again. Then he wanted to come up and unprepared, he became so ecstatic.

Now I reveal to you my actual identity. If you want, you can stay here gobbled it and watch my past. But you cannot reveal to anyone what you know until after I leave this planet. Because I am coming as a devotee. If you tell people who I am, then destroy my pastime. I will not call right back if I will not keep you in this world longer. This is my special mercy. Every time I come, you come and offer me these offerings. This is your relationship with me. When I came as Kṛṣṇa, you came to the house of Yaśodā. And also a similar thing happened that time. Of course, Yaśodā also does it for that Kṛṣṇa is God. So also there was a similar revelation. So I just revealed myself to you.

Because this was a blessing that you will be able to come and offer me and my different pastimes offering. And then with this, my pastimes going on. Do not reveal to anyone in this pastime. Because I come as a devotee only to you. I reveal actual identity. Then the Lord returned to his device. One of them went back and laid down and the Brahman. He was so overwhelmed with ecstasy that I heard Sing Kṛṣṇa and Sing Hopeana. He said, this is the offering. So there was a feast where little dimaya had taken the food, taken the boba. So he just took that prasada and he was. He’s rubbing about his head, his arms and everything. He laughed, he says, So then he’s more overheard. And now suddenly everyone’s hearing him crying and jagged at Mishra and touching my Ra and says, what’s happening?

And they see he’s rubbing the rice on his head and he’s screaming. And he looks, you know, he can’t tell her why he’s so ecstatic. He can’t say anything. The Lord just if you say anything, that’s it. We got our free exit path out of this world. So he’s like, I am feeling it there. He catch the energy. They look at him. Oh, he must have really been hungry or something. He’s putting a masala on his body. You know what really happened? He just started eating, you know, and they said all these eating. So they all were happy. Mother and father, everyone was happy. The devotees eating the sack. Nobody knows until after the Lord Shania left the world. What else did he have? Nothing. So sometimes the Lord opens in that mood. What he has rehearsed into the mood of Kṛṣṇa Vishnu Tva.

Very special occasion. The Jag who appeared today, he was also able to see that work in that moon. Although he did not physically see, but in his heart he knew this was Kṛṣṇa. And later the Sankir movement. Quickly he realized the Lord’s actual position. Even consciously. So Jagadish pathet said he would give out love of Kṛṣṇa freely. Some people, they shower mercury. You say showers mercy. But you said the when he would shower mercy. It’s like in the monsoon season. Sometimes this is continuous heavy downpour. I know that for those of you who have been here recently, may not have experienced a monsoon in East India. Sometimes it rains just continually for days. And it just like turning the shower on. Except not just in one place, you know, for miles. The whole area just keeps on literally showering down.

So I said his mercy was like that. It just came down like a whole monsoon torrent. I mean, just the rain was pouring and pouring down. He would give out the mercy of Nithyananda Lord Shaykhakya. Just continuously, without any interruption. Everyone he would see, everywhere he would go. He was just beginning this mercy. So today at his appearance day, we who are most foreign and they needed mercy. I needed mercy most of all. For sure. This is the opportunity for those who need the mercy. You don’t need your own thing. Advance what I need so at least opportunity to me to beg Chakrabishtanya to give his mercy, that we can have devotion for any dying door. That is why we say Vaishnavas and Yoga. Why all these questions that they ask in the Bhāgavatam, my Daduras or my Shaya.

Because these are certain things you can get from great devotees. You can get transcendental knowledge. You can get transcendental devotions for the Lord. The last question he asks is how to satisfy the Lord. That is also their purpose. So one can satisfy the Lord by following rules and regulations and gradually offering our devotion to the Lord according to the deed. In the case of Jagadish Pandir, he went beyond Didi. He broke the deedee because in time he knew this was Lord Kṛṣṇa. And this is something you can’t imitate. Actually he was correct in doing it. Just like the wife of the Brāhmaṇa felt in their heart that this is Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Lord. They disobeyed their husbands and they said to even though their husbands, the Brahmanas hold no sheet until the Yajna is over.

Then the Brahminas realized actually this is Kṛṣṇa and their lives are more advanced than the earth. So sometimes this spontaneous devotion comes just like that magic and fell for Vishalupa. There was no explanation, no reason why. But he was so strong in his heart. He tells unlimited attractions to Mr. Ruf, I just want to do what will please him. So when that happens, when we spontaneously want to please the Lord, that’s for Raga. And when we spontaneously want to please our own senses. But we know intellectually it’s not good for us. It’s not what we should do. What we should do is serve Kṛṣṇa. And so therefore we regulate ourselves according to rules and regulations so that we can do what’s pleasing to Kṛṣṇa, even though our tendency may be to do what’s pleasing to us. That’s Kalbinima.

So his Jagadeesh psalmist was at the level of Avahar. He was spontaneously doing what was pleasing to the Lord, spontaneously attracted to the Lord. And certainly we want that blessing from Him. So we may very soon announce spontaneous devotional service of Royal United States. Because I know Sari. With. Any questions. Could you explain us how we can satisfy the Lord by satisfying the holy spiritual masters. That’s all. Satisfying the spiritual Master at the weissen hour, my serving hand. So he can tell you what he wants you to do to please Him. That’s why serving the Guru is easier. Because we can ask him, what do you want me do to do. Do your name and he will tell you.

Do this, distill your books, cook for the needies, wash the temple, form whatever he wants to chant 16 rounds, follow the four regular principles, so on. So therefore it’s easy. To know what the guru wants. You ask him.
