Через меня!
Please bless me to serve you and Dieties
Shringi
brahminical power
- by birth and by training. "I deserve so much becouse I'm a devotee" - cancer thought
lacking in culture
- inexperienced boy. Wrongly compared Parīkṣit to crows and watchdogs
by the influence of Kali
used his power to curse king to die
2 heroes
2 ways of bhakti;
1) bhagavata vidhi - study SD, chanting 2) pancha ratrica vidhi - worship Diety. Why it's not enough to chant. Gayatri mantra creates braminical quolities. First goodness, then transcendence. If you want to fly to India first you have to go to the airport. Satvagun - tramplin for bhakti
Attached to fathe
r. We are attached to the idealisation - what a king should be king, presindent, husband... We collect shakti and then destroy it using for a curses, critics
Pride
: i'm on higher position, better
bramana born
in family of bramana, doctor - more chances, possibilities, but depends on action
Shringi told truth but not polite, su-nṛtaiḥ —
truthful and pleasing
What are the
quolities of bramanas
? BG 18.42: Peacefulness, self-control, austerity, purity, tolerance, honesty, knowledge, wisdom and religiousness
Degradation of brāhmaṇas - proud, king - controling, crue
l, vaishias - greedy, shudras - pleasure
Castes
brāhmaṇas - head, brains
kṣatriyas - arms
, protect the body from all harm, act according to the directions of the head and brain
created by Krishna,
scientific
social system/body for spiritual progress. Qualities and work, not birth
vaiśyas and śūdras
Real warnashram - respect everyone (Rukmini dd)
Parikshit
king, emperor of world, sun of Abhimaniu, grendson of Arjun
protected by Krishna in the womb of mother Uttara from Ashvadhama's weapon.
devotee, serving and searching Krishna
Humble accepted a curse. Didn't yell at son of bramana, didn't criticise. Accepted it like a will of Krishna, left kingdom and looked for guru. Even a curse became a blessing
asked for water, became angry, put snake on bramana, but felt not good, it was mistake
Culture
What is culture so important? " If you enjoy life and forget your culture. That is suicidal"
"
Animal culture
means to satisfy the needs of the body, and
Vedic culture
or human culture means to satisfy the needs of the soul. If we don't cultivate the spiritual side, simply we take care of the bodily side, then we remain animals". "Vedic culture means Kṛṣṇa conscious" Bg. 15.15
"4 kinds of culture: the culture of karmīs, jñānīs, yogīs, bhaktas. Yogīs means doing their
duty
sincerely. Who is the first-class yogī? Kṛṣṇa answers, “He who is always thinking of Me - first-class yogī" with faith and love, serving the Lord, spreading (The Journey of Self-Discovery)
Why no culture? Anger, ego pain, critics, wrong education
Culture -
quolities in relationship
. Culture of relationship - humbleness, - think of orselwes less, how we treat others
Juthishthira -
humbleness
should be the fruit of education
Gratitude
I'm greatful
to pujaris, cooks, Jay nitay and Lekashvaranti, Mahaman for home programs and kirtans, all of you
3 "Thank you for..." every day. Reminder - habit
Radhanath: without gratitude love is not possible
Symptoms
of gratitude: attention, see Krishna everywhere, Sence of wonder. Story of
Bramana and Campler
. Narada told that Vishnu is spreading elefant through the eye of the needle
SP: "You are doing so much for fulfilling the desires of my spiritual master, so you are indirectly representative of my guru. I can only pray to Krishna to take care about you"
ground, soil, where
pride plant will not grow
Kritik → optimism
Find what is good
. Polianna . Than mind can be trained and become a friend. Let's train. Someone promissed you to make some service and did not. What can be good here? Cope with ego, understand that I'm not God, controller, I can surrender to Krishna
Krishna is not a sadist. He is very kind, our best friend. All He do is best for us, for cleaning our heart
What could be Krishna's desire? What would I do if Prabhupad would stand near me? This is my journey home to God
Pride → humble
Emotions - instuments of soul
. Hide it inside = sick
Levels of pride
: 1) body, beauty, health 2) knowledge 3) position, status 4) quollities 5) of Krishna (1-4 - demonic quolity, 5 - pride of Krishna)
Fear of giving lecture
(to say wrong, nothing) protects from being proud. In my country I was expert...
False pride makes us

beauty
, physical
strength

wealth
, prestigious family connections, education, renunciation (отречение) and successful performance of Vedic rituals - criticise Krishna, devotees SB 11.5.9
Pride of Krishna
SB 10.2.33 Lord Brahmā: “pure devotees feel Your ecstatic friendship, are always protected by You, and so they can pass over the heads of their enemies without any care”.
