Now, I know it would seem like a ‘disturbance in society’ which is indeed what all the objections to this ideology boils down to, but the question to ask is, do we need to worry about what the society thinks? My personal opinion is this whole thing, is very beautiful and would indeed enhance ones love for Krishna. For, if one were to ask oneself, what can I now do to understand, to appreciate and to claw up my way there to increase my love of Krishna, the answer that comes up is, roll-playing. Become a manjari, dress up like one and serve the divine couple. <br />Now, I know it is impractical, and lesser devotees will cheapen the whole ideology to gain mundane popularity, and so on, not to mention the fact that all of us will look like cross-dressers, so therefore I think that this roll playing ought to be done in the mind only. Do not externalize it. Play it to your hearts content in your mind and enhance your love for Krishna. <br />The simple fact is, if you want to reach anywhere near the level of attachment that Bilva Mangala Takur had for Krishna, you have to know or have had experienced infatuation in your life. If you haven’t pined for a girl in your life, become maddened after her, how in the blaze will you ever charted this very same course with Krishna? Which is why Chintamani played such an important roll in BMT’s life. She taught him infatuation, taught him to swim swollen rivers, scale insurmountable walls, showed him how to love. Chanting will of course do it, but if the pathways aren’t already burnt into mind, your reawakened love from the supreme will very likely flounder. <br />If on the contrary, we do not do have this pre-burnt pathway, then after a stage of evolution, and have no more avenues left to grow, we will be left to artificially try and extract what little juice is left in chanting, like indeed SDG is attempting. <br />The whole think is roll playing, including assigning a garb for the spiritual master, for at this stage, disciples and guru are partners in charting uncharted waters, and he needs you to do this for him. <br />I do not think that there will come a time when you will actually ‘realize’ your true roll. So I say, go for it, dress the part, but for heaven’s sake, do it in private! An optional initiation for this stage, the last one, ought to exist, and only those who desire to do so ought to get into it (like sanyas) and once they are so initiated, they should retire from society like the babajis.JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545467059764416474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-6690129012792039452009-08-10T09:22:22.527-07:002009-08-10T09:22:22.527-07:00nice. thanks.nice. thanks.Devadeva Mirelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02872514743649524997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-66323792736477831542009-06-25T08:10:45.423-07:002009-06-25T08:10:45.423-07:00Congrats on the new website!!!

Thanks for your -- ...Dear Keshava Krishna Prabhu, <br /><br />Thanks for your -- as usual -- thoughtful and well-written thoughts.<br /><br />My guru maharaja spoke about this topic on a number of occasions. Some of the things he said, may not be appropriate for public discussion. But one thing general thing that he always emphasized, was that this has to come by realization. The desire to know our guru in this -- the most intimate, and ultimately true way -- should be a driving force in our bhajan. <br /><br />Different devotees have different understandings about the identity and rasas of some of our previous guru-varga. I think that it's important to remember that in the inconceivable land of rasa they can all be correct.<br /><br />But the main thing is, pratyaksa -- this is something that has to be realized. I fear that speculating about this will make everything cheap or "easy", (in Bengali, "sahajiya").<br /><br />I also find it sad that some persons would consider this a topic of empirical debate. And that some do so is a statement of our times.<br /><br />Your servant,<br />Madhavananda DasMadhavananda Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11067266134383406539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-51367488227372274472009-06-03T10:07:11.643-07:002009-06-03T10:07:11.643-07:00Dear Madhavananda Prabhuji,

In fact, there is mention in the Jaiva Dharma - I am unable to say where right now - of the Guru being a repository if you like, of all rasas for a disciple.<br /><br />Impatience and curiosity can lead us in certain directions to the 'grail' of continual and disputed claims which cannot satisfy us. Indeed, once this article gets more airtime the debate will rage on.<br /><br />Thank you, your servant Kesava Krsna Dasa.Kesava Krsna Dasahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13843013272227065649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-65373745100740454562009-05-14T09:45:00.000-07:002009-05-14T09:45:00.000-07:00so we should we be like underwater volcanos...unde...so we should we be like underwater volcanos...undetectable and calm on the surface, explosive underneath.Doniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17292554755396847872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-46080709431800272042009-05-14T09:42:00.000-07:002009-05-14T09:42:00.000-07:00Radhey Radhey!

The conception that "I am (aham) the cause (kara)". <BR/><BR/>Of course, Isvara Parama Krishna is sarva karana karanam... Sri Krishna is the Supreme Controller and the cause of all causes... <BR/><BR/>In this way, conditioned souls act, being unaware that God, Bhagavan Sri Krishna, is witnessing and consenting to every single action in this material world...and is the Supreme Conductor of Orchestra... <BR/><BR/>They also ignore the law of karma and fail to understand that one is subjected to the laws of nature and to the consequences of his past and present deeds... <BR/><BR/>na hi kascit ksanam api<BR/>jatu tisthaty akarma-krt<BR/>karyate hy avasah karma<BR/>sarvah prakriti-jair gunaih<BR/><BR/>"Everyone is forced to act helplessly according to the qualities he has acquired from the modes of material nature; therefore no one can refrain from doing something, not even for a moment." <BR/>(B.g. III. 5)<BR/><BR/>Similarly, being under the influence of the three gunas, one may think oneself to be the doer, when actually he is compeled to act under the influence of the three gunas... <BR/><BR/>prakriteh kriyamanani<BR/>gunaih karmani sarvasah<BR/>ahankara-vimudhatma<BR/>kartaham iti manyate<BR/><BR/>"The spirit soul bewildered by the influence of false ego thinks himself the doer of activities that are in actuality carried out by the three modes of material nature." (B.g. III, 27)<BR/><BR/>One may think oneself to be a great reformer, when actually he is acting under the influence of material nature and the three gunas:<BR/><BR/>na kartrtvam na karmani<BR/>lokasya srjati prabhuh<BR/>na karma-phala-samyogam<BR/>svabhavas tu pravartate<BR/><BR/>"The embodied spirit, master of the city of his body, does not create activities, nor does he induce people to act, nor does he create the fruits of action. All this is enacted by the modes of material nature." (B.g. V. 14)<BR/><BR/>Therefore, Srila Bhaktisiddantha Sarasvati Thakur Maharaja enjoins us to start by reforming ourselves and overcome the three gunas, by surrendering to the Supreme Lord:<BR/><BR/>daivi hy esa guna-mayi<BR/>mama maya duratyaya<BR/>mam eva ye prapadyante<BR/>mayam etam taranti te<BR/><BR/>"This divine energy of Mine, consisting of the three modes of material nature, is difficult to overcome. But those who have surrendered unto Me can easily cross beyond it." (B.g. VII. 14)<BR/><BR/>This way, one will be able to overcome samsara and reach the spiritual platform: <BR/><BR/>gunan etan atitya trin<BR/>dehi deha-samudbhavan<BR/>janma-mrityu-jara-duhkhair<BR/>vimukto ’mrtam asnute<BR/><BR/>"When the embodied being is able to transcend these three modes associated with the material body, he can become free from birth, death, old age and their distresses and can enjoy nectar even in this life." (B.g. XIV. 20)<BR/><BR/>Then, one will be able to understand the transcendental nature of the Lord, who is situated beyond the three modes of material nature, and is not to be held responsible for any action of the conditioned soul :<BR/><BR/>nanyam gunebhyah kartaram<BR/>yada drastanupasyati<BR/>gunebhyas ca param vetti<BR/>mad-bhavam so ’dhigacchati<BR/><BR/>"When one properly sees that in all activities no other performer is at work than these modes of nature and he knows the Supreme Lord, who is transcendental to all these modes, he attains My spiritual nature." (B.g. XIV. 19)<BR/><BR/>Where the material energy is composed by the three gunas, which turns souls coming in contact with it into conditionned souls :<BR/><BR/>sattvam rajas tama iti<BR/>gunah prakriti-sambhavah<BR/>nibadhnanti maha-baho<BR/>dehe dehinam avyayam <BR/><BR/>"Material nature consists of three modes—goodness, passion and ignorance. When the eternal living entity comes in contact with nature, O mighty-armed Arjuna, he becomes conditioned by these modes." (B.g. XIV. 5)<BR/><BR/>The mahatmas take shelter of the divine energy, beyond the three modes of material nature :<BR/><BR/>mahatmanas tu mam partha<BR/>daivim prakritim asritah<BR/>bhajanty ananya-manaso<BR/>jnatva bhutadim avyayam<BR/><BR/>"O son of Pritha, those who are not deluded, the great souls, are under the protection of the divine nature. They are fully engaged in devotional service because they know Me as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, original and inexhaustible." (B.g. IX. 13)<BR/><BR/>This is the platform where one has conquered real freedom and can act according to one's own spiritual and eternal nature... to which Srila Bhaktisiddantha Sarasvati Thakur Maharaja invites us, <BR/>by taking shelter of the Holy Name received from the lips of the pure representative of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu... <BR/><BR/>So, one may not be able to change the world, but one can (should) change (reform) oneself... !<BR/><BR/>Hare Krishna<BR/><BR/>Das dasanudasa<BR/>Puskaraksa dasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-50764878276341033222008-05-24T05:04:00.000-07:002008-05-24T05:04:00.000-07:00Prabhuji, it is a wonderful effort.

Sadhana does not bring mercy, sadhana brings sukriti, I would go so far as to think that even namaparadha brings sukriti (for who among us is chanting above that level?). <BR/><BR/>With sukriti one can get sadhu-sangha, and if one follows the instructions of sadhu, one is accepting sadhu's mercy. <BR/><BR/>Sadhu is not compelled to come to our aid, it is his nature to be of service, it is his nature to be kind, as Srila Prabhupada says, "Your ever well wisher". <BR/><BR/>To whatever extent you can follow the instructions of your sad-guru to that extent you are blessed, but like a snowball, if offences are avoided as much as possible, we lose the taste for evil and become endowed with a mood of service which is way beyond mere sadhana performed in the hope of some kind of liberation from material existence (even if we do convince ourselves that we are "serving guru"). Actually, how many of us would go to hell to serve, without any hope of gain for ourselves? We are indeed fallen.<BR/><BR/>Easy to discuss such lofty topics yet impossible to follow.

Charles sent me a personal email saying how moved he felt reading my comment. I know that other godbrothers would argue differently but anyway...<BR/><BR/>>>>>>>>><BR/><BR/>mr terrible said...<BR/><BR/> Hi Charles..<BR/> This is fascinating to me as I believe that the www is a barometer of human success. We can be merely 2 legged animals or actually reach out to the true nature of our soul, thus really becoming ourselves.<BR/><BR/> I see that the web demonstrates the extremes of polarity within our planet's society. On one hand we have the envious writing viruses to destroy other peoples' happiness and at the other extreme we have teams of developers offering their hard work for free in open source programs.<BR/><BR/> Currently I see the open source winning but then again I don't frequent the parts of the web where nasties are to be found.<BR/><BR/> However, being brought up as a Catholic here in Australia and seeing so much that pointed to the non-existence of God I went on a search to find out the truth. Nowadays I travel under the guise of a Hare Krishna although I am exactly the same soul that I always was.<BR/><BR/> Being as humble as a blade of grass, as tolerant as a tree and willing to offer respect to all living beings is the highest consciousness for ordinary humans, yet even among my brothers I see so many who have failed to recognize this simple truth. Jesus taught a similar doctrine. I have never come across any method of personal development that leads towards any other goal.<BR/><BR/> Being humble, tolerant, and respectful is pleasing to God (whether we call Him Allah, Krishna, Jehovah, Whatever) yet in our world people hijack religious doctrines purely to vent the spleen of their own prejudicial hatred upon their allocated victims.<BR/><BR/> God is beautiful and does not condemn followers of paths other than our own to eternal damnation. He gives credit where credit is due; even more, He is merciful, forgiving the transgressions of those who are truly repentant of their selfishness, even when we are still unable to control ourselves.<BR/><BR/> I can imagine that those who think that He does condemn followers of other paths to eternal suffering for the mere crime of being bewildered as to which path is correct as being hypocrites since no one could justifiably LOVE such a beastly god.<BR/><BR/> Yet that is our goal, to love God. Recognition of His amazing personal beauty inspires both love and surrender to His will (according to our ability), which bears no malice whatsoever.<BR/><BR/> Fanaticism is an indulgence like any other selfish persuit and is judged accordingly. Fanaticism keeps more people away from God than any other single cause. It is for this reason the Krishna says to Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita to abandon all religion and just surrender to Him. To surrender to our real (beautiful) nature.<BR/><BR/> As souls belonging to God our inherent (when realized) nature is similar to the nature of God and is all beautiful. Saints are renowned for their personal beauty not for how many heathens they have murdered.<BR/><BR/> One would necessarily need to be MAD to see following a religious path as anything other than a path to unimaginable beauty, and yet there we have it. Madness and other forms of self-indulgence are ruining our world. We cannot do anything to rid the world of the mad, that is God's arrangement.<BR/><BR/> We can, however, keep sharing and encouraging kindness, beauty, honesty, etc and especially generosity in any of its forms, which brings me back to the internet.<BR/><BR/> The internet is our connection to other souls who have chosen to be as wonderful as their karma permits. Let us keep on caring, sharing, humbly tolerating, and offering respect to one and all. But as we may respect a shark or a snake for it's beauty we must also avoid it wherever possible and sometimes even take steps to protect ourselves and our culture of love from such cruel danger.<BR/><BR/> I think that God is using the internet to network, to bring us all together, to do His work in showing the world how beautiful our lives really can be.<BR/><BR/> Humble apologies for verbosity.<BR/><BR/> tarunkrsna dasmr terriblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06324516587558068601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-1162067035113292782006-10-28T13:23:00.000-07:002006-10-28T13:23:00.000-07:00My apologies for not replying to the comments. I'v...My apologies for not replying to the comments. I've been traveling the last few weeks in India and now the US and haven't visited my blog until now. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the thoughtful remark from our second anonymous commenter. Certainly, information about the nitya-svarupa of one's guru is a private matter. However, from the section of Hari-bhakti-vilasa where this appears it is clear that the gurus manjari-svarupa is not the topic of this verse. From the context it is clear that gopayed gurum atmanah is a general instruction meant for all devotees, not just those who are privy to knowledge of their guru's svarupa.<BR/><BR/>The reason for hiding one’s guru can be expressed in another way: There are two types of guru -- vyasti-guru and samasti-guru [These terms are explained by Srila Jiva Goswami in Bhakti-sandarbha annucheda 286]. Vyasti-guru is the localized manifestation of guru, and is compared to one ray of light from the sun. Samasti-guru is like the sun -- the sum total of and source of all gurus -- Krishna. Vyasti-guru is a manifestation of Krishna as guru that varies for each individual; ie one person’s guru is not necessarily another’s. Samasti-guru however is guru for all. <BR/><BR/>For this reason in traditional Gaudiya Vaishnava temples one will not generally find worship of, or pictures of their guru on the altar or in the temple. If you visit the temples of the Six Goswamis in Vrindavan, you do not find their pictures on the altar (a few exceptions to this have popped up in the last few years, but it is not traditional). This is because Krishna -- samasti-guru -- is for everyone, while vyasti-guru is a relative manifestation of the absolute. “Relative” meaning he or she, is guru or absolute for a particular person or persons, not necessarily for everyone.Madhavananda Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11067266134383406539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20210027.post-1158906662492084372006-09-21T23:31:00.000-07:002006-09-21T23:31:00.000-07:00gopayed devatam istam gopayed gurum atmanah/gopaye...gopayed devatam istam gopayed gurum atmanah/gopayec ca nijam mantram gopayen nija-malikam<BR/><BR/>Isn´t hide your guru, means that one should keep Srila Gurudeva´s nityanama as manjari hide?
