Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj gives an extensive discussion concerning the importance of the spiritual master.  He points out that we cannot get beyond our present position unless we have help from those who occupy a spiritually superior position.  Much can be gained from reading Srila Prabhupada’s books, but when a living spiritual teacher is available, we are enjoined by scripture to take guidance from such a realized soul.

Maharaj discusses the practical problems of finding an authentic spiritual master and gives suggestions for the proper mood for making such a search.  He finishes with a discussion of the meaning of self-realization and shares his own experience finding a spiritual master after the disappearance of Srila Prabhupada.

Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj explains the meaning of irrevocable service and discusses the symptoms of such service as it has been given by Rupa Goswami.  From the second sloka Maharaj explains the difference between liberation and scientific knowledge of the Personality of Godhead, and shows that what is missing from the platform of liberation is love for Krsna (Krsna Prema).  He further establishes that Vaisnavas already develop brahminical qualities by following the four regulative principles — no meat-eating, no gambling, no intoxication and no illicit sex.

Today is Guru Purnima where we celebrate Gurudev, who opens the eyes of conditioned souls to their real identity.  From Gurudev we learn what is our present position and how to understand that, and what is the ultimate goal in life and how to achieve that.  From the previous sloka we recall that the highest activity of life is to discharge our duties for the satisfaction of the Personality of Godhead.  From this sloka we learn what that highest activity is, namely: constantly hearing, glorifying, remembering and worshipping the Lord.  Bhakti Madhava Puri discusses these elements in detail, pointing out that such activities are inherent in all societies, including ants and bees.

Maharaj finishes today’s sanga with a discussion of knowledge.  Everyone has the capacity to know, but what is the purpose of knowing?  In the modern conception, knowledge is gained to better defend the self, to improve the chances for survival, but that knowledge is always changing.  On the other hand, transcendental knowledge does not change, but it can only be gained from Guru.  One must have love for Guru and want to serve…not just dutiful service, but beautiful service.

Continuing with the overview of the Vaisesika philosophy, Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj discusses the remaining 5 of the 7 categories of reality.

• Action (karma) is viewed in the Vaisesika school as physical movement.  Whereas quality is the static character of things, such as gravity or inertia, action is their dynamic character.
• Generality (samanya) is the essence of the common characteristics that unite different entities into one class–men, horses, puppies, etc.  Also translated as universality, it is similar to the Grecian concept of eternal forms.
• Uniqueness (visesa) is the opposite of generality, the characteristics of any given thing which distinguishes it from everything else.  Everything in the world is accompanied by uniqueness in the sense that we can point out “that” chair, “that” insect, etc.
• Inherence (samavaya) is a permanent relation between two entities, one of which inheres in the other.  Quality or action is inherent to a substance, but the substance is not inherent to the quality or action; there is color in cloth, but no cloth in color.
• Nonexistence (abhava) is negative in contrast to the first six categories, which are positive.  Providing an interesting and useful contrast with the logical positivism of modern-day philosophy, the Vaisesika school postulates two kinds of non-existence with several subcategories which are discussed in more detail in the full text.

The first sloka states that devotional service to the Lord immediately yields causeless knowledge and detachment, two important factors on the path of transcendental realization.  Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj distinguishes between jnana vairagya and yukta vairagya to emphasize the importance of rejecting all activities that are not connected with Krsna while positively engaging in activities which are connected with Krsna.  Proper utility determines the spiritual and material nature of an activity.

The second sloka further explains that occupational activities are useless if they do not provoke attraction for the Lord.  Majaraj points out that matter is spatio-temporal.  It is temporary by it’s very nature. Therefore, pursuit of material objectives can never satisfy the spirit soul.

Continuing with the overview of the Vaisesika philosophy, and having completed a review of the first category of Reality, the nine kinds of Substance (dravyas), we move on to the second category of Reality, the twenty-four Qualities (gunas) that may exist in a given substance.  

One should not confuse the usage of the Twenty-four Gunas in the Vaisesika philosophy with the Three Gunas of the Sankhya philosophical system.  Each of these systems comprise independent viewpoints on reality and should be considered to stand alone.  

Each of the Twenty-four Gunas in the Vaisesika system may have subcategories, thus the system becomes a bit complex.  The list includes such qualities as color, taste, smell, sound, number, magnitude, etc. To review all of these categories and subcategories in detail, please see the full text starting on page 26.

This sloka is the answer from Sri Suta Goswami to the first of six questions presented by the Sages of Naimisaranya–”The supreme occupation for all humanity is that by which men can attain to loving devotional service unto the transcendent Lord.”

To better understand this principle in depth, Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj looks into the meaning of several Sanskrit words.  In particular, the word adhoksaje clarifies that we serve the Supreme Being who is above all sense perception and whose Being is the Unity which unifies all beings.  Because we must not think of Krsna as just another living being, Srila Prabhupada chose to use the term Personality of Godhead, the Being of all beings.

The second part of the lecture looks at the requirements for successful devotional service.  Devotional service must be causeless and unbroken to shake-off the material existence.  The two pathways, exploitation (pravrtti-marga) and renunciation (nivrtti-marga), are delineated and compared with bhakti where the senses are used in the service of the Lord.

Finally, Maharaj teaches us that we must look at difficulties as coming from Krsna.  Although there are times when obstacles should be removed, it is usually better to look at difficulties as a way to purify the heart.

South India Preaching Report, May 2009

Prepared by Sushen Krsna Das

Dear Devotees and Friends:

Kindly accept our humble dandavats.

You can see this report in proper format with embedded videos at

http://mahaprabhu.net/satsanga/reports/May_2009.htm

By the will and instructions of Srila Gurudev, His Divine Grace Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Maharaj (Sripad Maharaj), Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj became the president of the Bhaktivedanta Institute (BI) Managing Council after disappearance of Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Maharaj, who is the international director by Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada’s order. Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada established BI to educate people about science of the soul and science of God by scientific presentation of Krsna consciousness. You can download a copy of Srila Prabhupada’s vision for the BI here.

His Divine Grace Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada with his dear most disciple His Divine Grace Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Maharaj.

His Divine Grace Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Maharaj sacrificed his life in carrying out this order of Srila Prabhupada, and met with so much success that the enemies of truth felt threatened that he would take from them the illusions that they so eagerly cherished. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu became as enraged as Lord Narasimha Dev when Nityananda Prabhu was attacked by Jagai and Madhai, but Lord Nityananda magnanimously reminded Mahaprabhu that his mission in Kali Yuga was not to kill the demons but to mercifully save them, for all are fallen in this age. The followers of Srila Prabhupada and Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodar Maharaj are many, and although, by the Will of Krsna, Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodar Maharaj has been withdrawn to his eternal pastimes, there is an army of his followers willing to sacrifice their lives to carry on his mission in this world. With the blessings of all the Vaisnavas, in a spirit of unified and firm resolve and dedication, we pray that those who are willing and able to take up the service of Bhaktivedanta Institute may become glorious in fulfilling the desires of Srila Prabhupada and Srila Sripad Maharaj.

His Divine Grace Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Swami (Dr. T. D. Singh) with Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj, Ph.D. and other international delegates during the “International Seminar on The Living State ” at Jawaharlal Nehru Auditorium, New Delhi , 13^th December 1981.

Srila Gurudev Sripad Maharaj wanted us to take spiritual guidance from Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj to carryout the scientific preaching services under the banner of BI. Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj is one of the original founding members of BI and direct disciple of Srila Prabhupada and Srila Sridhar Maharaj. As disciples of Sripad Maharaj we have taken shelter of him and he has kindly agreed to give us spiritual guidance, which we appreciate greatly and want to share with others. We are doing scientific preaching under his guidance, publishing literature and engaging scientists in the service of the mission of BI.

Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj has been showering unlimited mercy on many fallen souls by organizing and rendering preaching services for the satisfaction of our Guru Varga. Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj is the senior most devotee scientist of Bhaktivedanta Institute. Many sincere souls of scholarly and intellectual background are getting inspired by Maharaj’s scientific presentation on Krsna consciousness and they are applying Krsna consciousness in their day to day life to achieve the real goal of human form of life.

Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj recently encouraged the South India preaching program on May 2009, under the auspicious guidance of Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj. Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj is the president Acharya deva of Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math (www.scsmath.com), which was established in 1941 by His Divine Grace Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj, who is the respected Godbrother and Siksa Guru of His Divine Grace, Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. You can see the video of Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanata Swami Prabhupada with his Siksha Guru Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj, and his dear Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj during ISKCON Mayapur Chandrodaya Mandir Inauguration on 17th March 1973 at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBaDkJyWZXM .

Srila Gurudev His Divine Grace Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj

After attending the Mangal Arotik and taking the blessings of Gurudev, Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj, and five devotees under the auspicious leadership of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj, we started from Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math on 6th May (Dwadasi) 2006, towards South India . The other four devotees who attended were Sripad Jagadananda Prabhu from USA , Sripad Anandavardhan Prabhu from Hungary , Sripad Ram See Prabhu from West Bengal , and Sushen Krsna Das from Orissa. For the pleasure of Gurudev, Sripad Anandavardhan Prabhu took all the photos and videos of this South India preaching seva.

Srila Gurudev His Divine Grace Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Swami (Sripad Maharaj)

Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj

Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj

Sripad Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj has great appreciation for Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj, who is a senior disciple of Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj, and has taken sannyas from Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj. He has been serving Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj for many years, and Gurudev also has a lot of appreciation for his sincere services to the Gaudiya Guru Parampara. Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj is born and brought up from Assam , the neighboring state of Manipur, which is the birth place of our dear Gurudev, Srila Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Swami (Sripad Maharaj). His ancestors are originally from East Bengal which is at present in Sri Hata district of Bangladesh.

The train started from Kolkata Railway station at 7:10AM in the morning, and the devotees reached Kharagpur station at 9AM. Devotees met our dear godbrother, Sripad Purushottama Jagannatha Prabhu on the train. Taking the darshan of a very dear disciple of Srila Gurudev, Sripad Maharaj, devotees were certain that the yatra would be a great success.

The train reached Bhubaneswar station around 2PM, where our very dear godbother Sripad Trustiman Prabhu from IYF, Bhubaneswar , mercifully arranged maha prasadam for all the devotees on the train. Devotees felt this was special mercy and the blessings of Srila Sripad Maharaja. All these auspicious events on the way gave the devotees an abundance of spiritual happiness.  

Family members (mother, grand mother, younger sister and aunt) of Sushen Krsna Das taking blessing from Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj

The train reached Berhampur station in Orissa at 5PM. Sushen Krsna das’ family members, along with his mother, younger sister, grandmother, uncle, aunt and their daughter; received the blessings from Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj. Maharaja gave a lot of spiritual nourishment by delivering Krsna Katha at the Berhampur station. They also arranged evening maha prasadam for devotees on the train.

The devotees reached their first destination station, Vijayawada in South Indian, around 3AM on 7th May, 2009. At the station, our dear godbrothers, Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu, Sripad Braja Gopal Prabhu, Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu, Sripad Venkata Krsna Prabhu and Sripad Vaisanava Das Prabhu from Vijayawada met the devotees and offered prasadi mala (offered garlands to deities and Guru varga) to Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj and devotees.

Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu

Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu is a senior-most disciple of Gurudev and is the first devotee who helped Srila Sripad Maharaj start the preaching program in Vijayawada . By Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu’s sincere and dedicated service to Srila Sripad Maharaj, he brought many sincere souls to Gurudev. He has successfully preached both outside and inside his family. Sometimes, we find that it is easy to preach outside, but very difficult to preach inside the family. Due to his sincerity and dedication to Srila Sripad Maharaj, Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu got special empowerment from Srila Gurudev. He inspired many devotees to seriously take up Krsna consciousness under the shelter of sadhus, Gurudev and the vaisnavas. Devotees felt very fortunate to have the association of such a wonderful servant of Srila Gurudev and his big devotee family. Devotees also were very happy to see the special motor cycle of Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu. The Hare Krsna kirtan of Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Narasimha kirtan and many more auspicious kirtans start playing automatically when Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu’s motor cycle starts running. He has been preaching throughout Vijayawada for many years on this special vehicle.

Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu and Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu

Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu arranged for stay of devotees in the house of Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu. Devotees were very inspired to see the service attitude of Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu and the devotees of Vijayawada . Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu arranged for a special air conditioning in the room of his house for the stay of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj, as it was the hot Indian summer.

Harinam Maha Sankirtan on 7th May 2009 in Vijayawada

After the Mangal Aratik on 7th May 2009 in the house of Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu, devotees reached the house of Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu along with Nagar Sankirtan. Devotees performed kirtan, and offered prayers to Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Gandharva Govinda Sundar Jiu in the house of Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu. The devotees’ hearts were fully satisfied by hearing the nectarine Krsna katha from the lotus lips of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj. You can find this nectar here.

Srila Gurudev His Divine Grace Bhaktisvarupa Damodara Swami (Sripad Maharaj) taking mahaprasadam

Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu and the Vijayawada devotees served many varieties of South Indian maha prasadam to the devotees. One time when Srila Gurudev, Srila Sripad Maharaj was on a south India tour and Gurudev asked a South Indian devotee who was traveling with him, he asked “Do you like to have Matrubhasa maha prasadam,” means “do you like to have the mahaprasdam of your home state.” The devotees were remembering this pastime of Gurudev during maha prasadam seva in South India .

Devotees climbing the Mangal Giri hill

Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu then guided the devotees towards Mangal Giri for the darshan of Sri Sri Laxmi Narasimha and Lord Pana Narasimha. Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj was leading the kirtan (download mp3), and in his holy association, devotees were chanting the glories of Sripad Prahlad Maharaj and Lord Narasimha Dev in ecstasy, as they were heading towards Mangal Giri. On the way, devotees offered their prayers to the holy Krishna River in Vijayawada . In Mangal Giri, the devotees first took the blessing of Narasimha Dev in the Laxmi Narasimha temple. Then, the devotees started climbing the Mangal Giri hill, performing kirtan on the way to take darshan of Lord Pana Narasimha (download mp3).

Padapita of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu on the way to Pana Narasimha temple established by Srila Bhaktisidhanta Saraswati Thakur prabhupada

The devotees took darshan of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s Padapeet (divine lotus feet of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu), which were established by Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur Prabhupada, to commemorate Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s visit to Pana Narasimha temple during His South India tirtha. An elaborate detail of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s visit to South India is described in Sri Chaitanya Charitamrita. The devotees who were present were constantly remembering the ecstatic ocean of love of Mahaprabhu by hearing the divine glories of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s visit to South India from the lotus lips of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj. You can found this nectar here.  

Upon reaching Pana Narasimha temple, the devotees offered their prayers to Lord Narasimha Dev by chanting and dancing. Sripad Nama sankirtan Prabhu arranged 108 pots of pana (juice prepared from gur (Jaggery, a product which comes from boiling sugar cane juice), karpura, and black pepper) to offer to Lord Narasimha Dev. Lord Narasimha Dev exhibited many divine pastimes at this place. To this day, we can see that when anyone offers a pot of pana to Lord Narasimha Dev, He only takes one half of it and returns the other half as His maha prasad. The priest in the Pana Narasimha temple offered in front of devotees one after another 108 pots of pana by chanting purusha sukta (download mp3) and each time only half the pana will not go in to the mouth of Lord Narasimha Dev from the sankh conch with which the priest offers the pana to Lord Narasimha Deva.

Devotees interacting with a few IIT-Bhubeneswar students in Mangal Giri 

Thus lots of pana mahaprasadam in Pana Narasimha temple got everyone spiritually surcharged to chant more and more the glories of Sripad Prahlad Maharaj and Lord Narasimha Dev under the guidance of Sadhus, Gurudev and Vaisnavas. In the Pana Narasimha temple, devotees met a few engineering students from IIT-Bhubaneswar. The devotees presented them with the teaching of Guru Parampara in scientific language, and they felt very much inspired. They received a lot of association from devotees and also took a few books written by Srila Gurudev.

Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj giving kanti mala to the son of Shanti Mataji (Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu’s brother’s wife)

The devotees came back to the house of Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu at around 2PM, after having darsan of Lord Pana Narasimha Dev and honored maha prasadam. There was a big feast of South Indian maha prasadam in the house of Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu, and the Vijayawada devotees were constantly chanting the glories of the holy name in the association of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj in great ecstasy (download mp3). Sadhu sange Krsna nama ei matra chai samsara jinite ar kano vastu nai. Shanti Mataji (Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu’s brother’s wife) requested Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj to give kanti mala to her son, and Maharaj accepted her request happily and gave many blessings to her son.

Sadhu Sanga in the house of Sripad Krsna Prema prada Prabhu in Vijayawada on 7th May 2009 evening under the holy association of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj

In the evening, devotees gathered in the house of Sripad Krsna Prema Prada Prabhu’s house to hear nectarine Krsna katha from lotus lips of Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj. Sripad Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj was constantly chanting the glories of Mahaprabhu’s visit to the South India from the famous Sri Sri Prema Dhama Deva Stotram (condensed version of the Chaitanya Charitamrita), composed by Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj (download). The devotees were completely absorbed in hearing the sweet nectarine pastimes of Lord Gaura Hari. Download nectar here. After hearing the Sri Sri Prema Dham Deva Stotram, Sripad Nama Sankirtan Prabhu was so ecstatic, that he translated a few verses of Prema Dham Deva Stotram into Telugu on Narasimha Chaturdasi day, 8^th May 2009. He was constantly explaining to all devotees the glories of Prema Dham Deva Stotram in great ecstasy.

Sripad Murli Purushottama Prabhu received all the devotees and Maharaj with great love and respect 

After taking the evening maha prasadam in the house of Sripad Krsna Prema Pada Prabhu, the devotees started for Ahobalam by the night train, via Vijayawada station. Sripad Venkata Krsna Prabhu assisted the devotees from Vijayawada to Ahobalam. We reached Nandyal station in the early morning on 8th May 2009, and caught a bus to Allagadda, where our dear godbrother and disciple of Srila Sripad Maharaj, Sripad Murli Purushottama Prabhu, has begun organizing a Bhaktivedanta Institute center. Sripad Murli Purushottama Prabhu received all the devotees and Maharaj with great love and respect.

The broken pillar from which Lord Narasimha appeared after the demon Hiranyakashyapu broken it. Lord Narasimha Dev’s divine foot prints are still here

By the divine arrangement of the Lord, the devotees reached Ahobalam on Narasimha Chaturdasi (8th May 2009), where Lord Narasimha Dev appeared from a pillar and killed the great atheistic demon, Hiranyakashyapu to give protection to His dear most devotee, Sripad Prahlad Maharaj.

Sadhu-Sange Krsna-nama ei matra cai

samsara jinite ar kono vastu nai

(Jagadananda Pandit – Prema-Vaivarta).

Translation by His Divine Grace Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj “To chant Krsna-Nama without the association of the sadhus means also to have to proceed with difficulty. Therefore in one word the solution is in sadhu sanga. We are to secure the company of a standard realized soul, then everything will fall into place, and the king of the sadhus is Sri Guru.”

We are very much thankful to the Supreme personality of Godhead Sri Krsna for His unlimited causeless blessings which is coming to us in the form of the divine association of His agents. We pray that we may be blessed so that we will eternally serve the agents of Sri Gaura Hari life after life.

Thanking you.

Your humble servant

In today’s sanga, we discuss the last two elements in the Vaisesika philosophy of substance — Soul and Mind.  The Soul or atman is characterized as the eternal, all-pervading substratum for consciousness.  According to Vaisesika philosophy there are two kinds of souls: individual (jivatman) and supreme (paramatman or isvara).  The Supreme Soul is inferred to be the Creator of the World using the same kind of logical arguments we have seen with the nyaya philosophy.

The Mind is considered to be the 9th kind of substance, the eternal sense faculty of the individual soul.  Attention is required to prevent a jumble of information from the senses.  That attention is supplied by the mind along with other functions such as thinking, feeling and willing.  We must be careful to recognize that there is a potential for confusion here, because the Vaisesika philosophy collapses the subtle aspects of Mind and Spirit into one.

The early 19th century German philosopher Hegel provides an interesting viewpoint on the existence of Mind.  In his view, the senses perceive things as singular, whereas the ideas of “next-to” or “far-from” are not perceived by the senses, but are conceptual determinations supplied by Mind.  Ancient philosophers were far more thoughtful about the subtle details of the Mind than today’s naive realists.  It is unfortunate that today’s atomic theorists try to reduce all the rich, subtle experiences of Mind into a monochromatic slurry of particulate matter.

From the first sloka of today’s sanga, Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj explains that the Srimad Bhagavatam is called the spotless Purana because it is thoroughly transcendental, and not affected by the Three Modes of material nature.  It offers nothing whereby we may improve our situation on the exploitive plane.  Instead, it’s entire focus is glorification of the Lord–His Name, forms, pastimes, and associates.  Such devotional service or bhakti is the 5th and ultimate goal of life, which supersedes dharma, artha, kama and moksha.

From the second sloka, we see that all living entities are involved with questions and answers.  However, seeking answers to material questions simply leads to more questions since exploitation leads to more exploitation, lust to more lust, and greed to more greed.  As stated by Srila Prabhupada, “satisfaction of the soul can only be obtained by questions and answers on the subject of Krsna.”

Taking additional questions from the devotees, Maharaj discusses a number of additional topics including the purpose of Shiva worship and the reasons why it is necessary to study the Puranas, which elaborate in greater detail the message of the Vedas.

Here is the recording of 2 June 2009 satsanga.

In this lecture, Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj discusses the nature of the ether (akasa), the 5th gross element in the Vaisesika philosophy.  The ether, which is the medium of sound, has no perceptible qualities and lacks a manifest color or form, thus it cannot be sensuously detected by an observer.  Yet we can logically infer its existence from sound.

A comparison is made to a cube of sugar which has qualities such as whiteness, sweetness, cubicity, et al.  However, if we remove all such qualities in our minds, then the cube’s being can only be inferred.  This quality-less being is the “thing in itself” which the 18th-century Prussian philosopher Immanuel Kant named in his analysis of the nature of reason.  The early 19th-century German philosopher Hegel even said that being and nothing are the same, since they both have the same indeterminate nature.

We can see from this that reality has a very deep structure which the scientists try to get very cheaply by claiming that atoms randomly aggregate to create life and the things around us.  We must also say that a finite mind cannot independently create a world.  In the final analysis, we must go further still to understand how Krsna is the origin of everything.

To begin, Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj returns briefly to the first chapter to locate the Six Questions of the sages at Naimisaranya that will be answered by Suta Goswami.  Following that, the discussion turns to the initiation of brahmanas and vaisnavas, where a vaisnava is considered to be more than a brahmana because he engages in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, which goes beyond the four activiites of dharma, artha, kama, and moksha.  Since brahmana or vaisnava initiation constitutes a second birth (dvija) into transcendental life, beyond physical or seminal birth, Sri Gurudeva gives a devotee a spiritual name at this time.

From the 3rd sloka, it is shown that the Bhagavatam is the natural commentary on the Vedanta-sutra. It is the torchlight whereby we can discern the three transcendental features of the Absolute Truth:

• Brahman – the all-accommodating aspect
• Paramatma – the all-pervading aspect
• Bhagavan – the all-attractive aspect

This session begins discussion of the Vedic Atomic Theory (vaisesika).  Vaisesika differs from modern atomic theory in many ways.  Vaisesika considers atoms to be concrete, indivisible particles whereas the modern theory defines atomic particles as divisible mathematical entities which must be shown to exist in the laboratory.  Numerous difficulties plague the modern theory including the problem of infinite divisibility, problems with cosmology, and failure to account for the behavior of systems of particles.  Most importantly, the modern theory does not account for mind or person, whereas vaisesika theory accounts for these as unique substances among the Nine Dravyas.

Maharaj begins by discussing the ship and captain analogy where the ship represents the message of Gita and Bhagavatam, and the captain represents Gurudeva.  With these two one can easily cross the ocean of material existence.  Otherwise, one who is drowning in the ocean cannot possibly save himself or others by his own efforts without getting help from someone who is already safely situated in the ship.

Our situation is not improved by pursuit of conventional education because the entire system is directed toward sense gratification rather than self-realization.  Nor is it improved by going to church or temple one day out of the week and then pursuing material enjoyment during the rest of the week.  Only by Krsna’s grace can we encounter the direction of Gurudeva and by his grace aspire to achieve loving service to the Lord — Krsna prema, the highest form of love.

Maharaj finishes with a brief discussion of the religious codes prescribed in the Bhagavatam — truthfulness, austerity, cleanliness, and mercy.  These are connected with the four regulative principles that are also prescribed there — no gambling, no intoxication, no elicit sex, and no eating meat.

Maharaj begins with discussion of the Concept of Liberation as it is defined in the nyaya system.  Attained in three stages — sravana, manana and nididhyasana — liberation is the highest level to which a jnani can aspire.  On the other hand, bhakti practitioners take the path of faith, surrender and devotional service which leads to the transcendental world, a plane higher than liberation.

In the second part of the session, Maharaj discusses the Concept of God and the three arguments given by the nyaya philosophers for the existence of God:

• the causal argument,
• the existence of adrsta meaning “the unseen” or fate, and
• scriptural testimony.

Regarding scriptural testimony, Maharaj points to the critical role played by Gurudev.  Bhagavad Gita was around for thousands of years, yet it was not widely understood in the modern age until Srila Prabhupada presented it to the world.

Maharaj discusses the confusion surrounding the incarnation of the Personality of Godhead.  Concocting an “incarnation” is now an ordinary business.  Those with little intelligence claim everyone is a God.  However, when God actually comes, He does not claim to be God, but makes himself to be an ordinary son of devotees, that He might enjoy filial relations.  There is no question of man becoming God through meditation or sacrifice.

In the second sloka, we see that the conditions within the present age of Kali make it impractical to attain self-realization by prolonged meditation or great sacrifices.  Chanting the holy names and remembering the pastimes of the Lord in the association of genuine devotees are the recommended activities for this age.

This session focuses entirely on the Concept of the Individual Soul (Atman). The materialistic carvaka school, Buddhist philosophy, and the analysis of David Hume, the influential 18th century Scottish philosopher, are compared with the nyaya and vaisesika systems. In these later two systems, the soul is shown to be a unique substance — indestructible and eternal — with consciousness as it’s attribute. The nyaya arguments for the permanent existence of the soul, and the individual nature of the soul, are discussed in considerable detail.

Maharaj discusses the many thousands of forms of incarnations of the Lord who appear for the maintenance of the universe (Visnu) and the protection of the devotees.  All such incarnations are an expression of the Lord’s internal energy, and since the activities of the Lord exist on an absolute plane, they benefit those who are present during those pastimes as well as those who hear the transcendental narratives about them.

From the second sloka, we learn that uttama means “above the plane of nescience.”  It is because the pastimes of the Lord are transcendental, a devotee never tires of hearing of the activities of the Lord.   This is contrasted with the Mayavada practitioners who chant to achieve liberation, but who ultimately fail to overcome the need to satisfy their desires.  Of the three planes — exploitative, renunciated and dedication — only those who learn to redirect their desires to the satisfaction of Krsna can overcome the material entrapment and achieve liberation.

From the Sanskrit, Maharaj notes that sraddadhananam implies that faith equals readiness to receive with respect.  Then, Srila Prabhupada’s purport is used as a springboard for in-depth discussion.  The topics are as follows:

“The material creations are…likened to a cinema”
•    Plato’s cave as a similar expression of material reality.
•    Finite consciousness vs transcendental knowledge (chit shakti).
•    The proper use of education.

“The Personality of Godhead is never inactive….”
•    Deism vs theism.
•    Spontaneity of movement as the definition of Life.
•    The Unmoved Mover, only soul is capable of spontaneous movement.

Of special interest were the sections covering The Validation of Words and The Potency of Words (shakti). This led to a discussion of the weaknesses of such sources and the importance of depending on a self-realized soul to remove such difficulties.

Dear Devotees and Friends:

Kindly accept our humble dandavats.

By the mercy of HH Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj we were able to participate in the all auspicious Sridham Navadwip Parikrama during Gaura Purnima 2009 organized by Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math (www.scsmath.com) under the auspicious guidance of Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev Goswami Maharaj. Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev Goswami Maharaj is the president Acharyadeva of Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math which is established by Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhardeva Goswami Maharaj, dearmost Godbrother and Siksa Guru of Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

It is mentioned in scriptures that if we don’t do the parikrama of Lord and His devotees then we have to do parikrama of unlimited material universes endlessly. We did the parikrama of many divine pastime places in the nine islands of Navadwip Dham under the holy association of many elevated Sadhus (HH Bhakti Prapanna Tirtha Maharaj, HH Acharaya Maharaj, HH Bhagavat Maharaj, HH Jitendra Maharaj and many more) with maha sankirtan. We got good nourishment for our soul and our hearts are fully satisfied by listening to the unlimited glories of divine pastime places of Mahaprabhu and His associates from the lotus lips of Sadhus, Gurudev and Vaisnavas during Navadwip Dham parikrama. We are happy to share some of the photos of Navadwip Dham Parikrama at

HH Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj also gave a lecture on the glories of Sridham Mayapur prior to Gaura Purnima in the weekly online Skype Satsanga (www.mahaprabhu.net/satsanga/about). You can listen the same at download (Downloads 174)

Briefly about Mayapur Parikrama…

=============================

In Nabadwip Dham devotees are eternally engaged in chanting the glories of Gaura Hari, Nityananda Prabhu and Gaura Bhaktavrinda. By the association of devotees of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu we can develop the attraction for Krsna Prema which is the ultimate goal of every living being.

Navadwip Parikrama started from Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math, in Kolerganj, Nabadwip. With the sankirtan party under the association of Sadhus, Gurudev and Vaisnavas we went to the Ganga Ghat where we take a boat to cross the Ganges to reach Mayapur. While going to Mayapur on the boat we cross two rivers Yamuna Nadi (Jalangi River) and Ganga Nadi. If we carefully observe we can find some colour differences between River Yamuna and River Ganga.

In the entrance of Mayapur we can find many maths and temples of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. It will be like as if we are entering Goloka Dham. Everywhere we can hear the transcendental vibrations of Maha Mantra. We went to Nandana Acharya’s house where Lord Nityananda meets Mahaprabhu.

We visited Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada’s Pushpa Samadhi mandir at ISKCON Mayapur. We went to Yogapitha which is Mahaprabhu’s Birthplace. There is a neem tree under that Mahaprabhu had taken birth, hence His name is Nimai. The local ladies and People like to call Mahaprabhu as Nimai. After that we visited Tomb of Kazi, Srivas Angan, Lord Jagnnath’s Mandir, Simanthadwip and Rudradwip.

Next day we visited Koladwip and many Ukrainian and Russian devotees joined us. We went to Amra Ghat (where Chaitanya Mahaprabhu used to eat mangos), Narsingapally, where Lord Nrsimha Dev appeared. Our Tripad Prabhu had joined us there. Next day we went to Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura’s Bhajan Kutir and Samadhi Mandir. We end our Parikrama at Brindaban Das Thakur’s Temple.

Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu showered his unlimited Blessings on us. Only we are safe in this dangerous material world and feel secured under the shelter and guidance of Sadhus, Gurudev and Vaisnavas. By their mercy only our life will be successful and Krishna will shower His unlimited karuna on us. This is the great mercy of Srila Sripad Maharaj that he has guided us to HH Bhakti Madhav Puri Maharaj and by the mercy of HH Bhakti Madhav Puri Maharaj we are happily progressing in our spiritual journey under the loving shelter of Srila Bhakti Sundar Govindadeva Goswami Maharaja.

While returning we also had darsan of Srila Guru Dev Sripad Maharaj’s head office in Kolkata and we are sharing some of the photos at http://picasaweb.google.co.in/nabadvip.parikrama/BIKolkata 

By the mercy of HH Bhakti Madhava Puri Swami we will be also participating in Jagannath Puri Dham Parikrama during Rathayatra from 21 – 28 June 2009 under the association of Sadhus, Gurudev and Vaisnavas. It is very difficult to get rooms at the time of Ratha Yatra in Jagannath Puri Dham. The devotees interested in participating in this all auspicious sankirtan festival at Jagannath Puri Dham are requested to contact well in advance (before 29 May 2009) to Sushen Krsna Das on his mobile number +91-9748906907 or Email: sushen_das@binstitute.org so that we can serve you better.

HH Bhakti Madhava Puri Maharaj discuss from Subjective Evolution of Consciousness page number 19.

And reality is subjective. It is based on consciousness.
Color is perceived through the eye. It is not that the color
is there and the eye can catch it. But the seer sees through
the eye and perceives color. So color is a perception. Its position

plane of existence. This is the nature of reality: the gross is

senses, and the sense objects. Sound is created by the ear,
color is produced by the eye, and so on.
