20130316 HH JAYAPATAKA SWAMI GAVE A TALK TO THE HINDI PARTY AT PANCHAVENI ON DAY 1 OF THE NAVADWIP MANDAL PARIKRAMA

Suswagatham! Welcome! We thank you for your participation in the Navadwip parikrama. I heard you spent some time at Naimishaaranya. Whatever you do there will purify the whole universe. This Naimishaaranya is non-different from the Naimishaaranya in U.P. (Uttar Pradesh) because Radharani made the Navadvip dham, all the holy places wanted to come here. This morning you were in Madhyadvip. Madhyadvip there is Hansvaahan Shiva, Naimishaaranya, there is the Pushkar Tirtha, and Ucchahata which is non-different from Kurukshetra. Now you are in Panchaveni. Here in addition to the Ganges, Jamuna and Saraswati, there is Alakananda and Bhagavati. So the devas they come here to the Maha Tirtha to do pilgrimage, either yagnas because in Navadvip, this is the land of mercy. If you spend a hundred years in Kurukshetra what fruit you get, you get here by staying one night. So every step you take is more than an Ashvamedha yagna. So you are very fortunate that you are having here, Radharaman Swami and Bhakti Purushottam swami and many other illustrious figures. So this is a special opportunity to get purified. Normally to get Krishna bhakti, is very difficult. Krishna, He will kill some of the demons and give them merging liberation. But here, Nitai Gaur, They give Their mercy very easily. Even the mischievous people, they get the special mercy and quickly they get freed from their mischievous activities and they can easily get the mercy of Nitai Gaur. This is a special place to awaken your love for Krishna. 

After here, you will enter into Koladvip. Koladvip is also in the town of Navadwip and in the town we hope that you will present yourselves very unitedly. You should be a bit organized. We heard that the Hindi group has some of the best kirtans. So we will ask the shopkeepers, who had the best kirtan – Hindi party or the Russian party or the International party. I feel it should be the Hindi party but you have to organize yourselves. All the ladies should organize and chant and all the men should chant as well. Today you are a bit late for breakfast and as a result there was a long parikrama. So as you refresh yourselves, as you take this prasadam, I hope you get back your energy to chant and dance in Navadvip dham. Who can do that? Haribol! Thank you!

It says that those who bathe here, they don’t take their birth again but there is no time and the current is very fast! So just take some water and put on your heads. Of course, the dust is the dust of the feet of Nitai Gaur. So tonight you will be staying in Pratap Nagar and that is an Iskcon facility. A few places are not ours, but tonight you are staying in our facility. I hope you all have an ecstatic time in the Navadvip parikrama. Lord Krishna comes as Lord Caitanya to give out special mercy. So you can also help Lord Caitanya by getting all mercy here and distributing it when you return back home. Haribol!
