Dear devotees greetings from the kumbhamela a great hug to Gurudeva Atulananda. El kumbhamela is a very interesting phenomenon in fact i knew many people that came and i have many pleasant encounters and also i found many important people that can help us in the fight about the bridge of vrindavan at the same time i am in fron of all the problems of hindusim in this age the lack of union, the goverment is practically against hinduism, searchin to take vows of the muslims to control the money of india so multiple problems are there, the mayor are mundane problems but it affect india severly for example, in the time of indira ghandi was a great campaign of the UNESCO about the overpopulation of the world at hat time to give money to the poor countries the goverments made a campaign where they preach people can have only 2 childs indian goverment took it to heart and even sterilize by force to the babajis of the radha kunda the result was that the propaganda was spread all over india and the growing of abortion was there and the hindu family is nowadays very little, but know in the world no one talks about the overpopulation on the contrary we have discover that the countries with more population are more powerfull beacuse every human being have the capacity of contribute or contribution but at that time the muslims never abide the restrictions of having big families and continue having 8 childs and in with this type of situation, the calculation is that in the year 2025 will be more muslims than indians in india in real all this problems have to do with our preach in south america and also are reactions of having abide a impersonalist philosophy accompanied by indifference with trash indifference with hipocresy etc.
I am also preaching in india and as our proyects of dharma and science and vedic wisdoms beacause it have many messages that have value in india and i see muyself more and more involve with this also i realize the dimension of the problems also i am visiting many people with the porpose of having interviews for our page of dharma and science the union between missions of the sanatan dharma is every day a prime neccesity also i learn in the kumbhamela that people always needs a hero that encourage and if dont find someone like prabhupada naturaly they lean to other person more charismatic the kumbhamela are many encourage people with the company of their guru in the festival with out a spiritual master the person is wihtout a spiritual group without a spiritual family.
People are happy and proud when they can be accompanied to his Master, of course, for many people it may mean they stop thinking and simply say: I have my savior and I have to save myself and this is a danger of the relationship with the Master Spiritual. Always be wary of many aspects for one to become a true leader in the world. In other words, you have to learn that at some point have to guide and protect their own group, as I try to protect you is not important the size, or if you have and oppulence of temple, the important is the surrender a simple life and enthusiasm to preach in other words the guru is so important to the disciple as they say in the scriptures as important as god himself but painfully many have the impersonalist tendency thye beleive god himself in conclusion they may think that god,,as eternal selfbeing, dont exist really but this is the freedom of every self being to think themselves god or want to free from sufferings this options exists: vadanti tat tattva-vidas tattvam yaj jnanam advayam brahmeti paramatmeti bhagavan iti sabdyate.
The knower of the Absolute Truth comes to understand this in three phases of study, and they are all identical. These phases of the Absolute Truth are expressed as Brahman, Paramatma and Bhagavan I believe that after all we are very fortunate to have met Srila Prabhupada.
We hope that the quantities of water from the Ganges river that washed down from the Himalayas wash all the impurities that today have settled and reach the location of Vrindavan, the beauty of Vrindavan may be restored, as here in the Haridwar sites have done very nice.
Today i visited to Dr. Pandiyan, he is the president of the Gayatri Parivar, a great Hindu organzation and he told us:
"We must do everything necessary so that Vrindavan is restored. And so Yamunaji will not be more dirty or contaminated with sewage we dont want a bridge in front of Keshi Gath. My 30 year Gurudev lived in Vrindavan. It is our duty to insist that all this wil beachieve. We can even put more water from the Ganges to increase the flow of the Yamuna. "
(Doctor Pandiya, director of Gayatri Parivar)
We're here in Kumbha Mela to work most of all, yesterday i talked to the Doctor Veda Bharati, another famous leader of a mission of meditation. He said, "if I were young, I become a revolutionary of the cause"
Tomorrow I will meet again with Swami Dayananda Saraswati who is a person who wants to strengthen Hinduism through the increased cooperation between the missions, which was organized in Hyderabard the Acarya Sabha, he is very respected all over India.
In one way or another, we can represent the Gaudiya Vaishnavas a little more in this way, with a little German touch. Although I'd rather be with Gurudev Atulanandaji in vkirtan. But soon i will be there I just talked with sripad gopal krishna swami of iskon about the bridge He said, "KPS Gill is a person with great ability. Tell him I shall support throughout with everything i can against the the bridge and back again to Yamuna to vridavan.
Pancha Gauda and Dina Bandhu prabhu must lead our campaing and we encourage all Hindu devotees of Iskcon. If we can help Mr Gill then will have more force in their efforts. We will unite the Vrindavan Braj Heritage Alliance and work together for this noble cause " so you see how the work continue if it is possible we are going to turn every stone we find so we can restore teh glory of vridavan and stop the offenses against yamuna maharaní this must be our common vow we all this owe to srila prabhupada this days are very specila here in hrisikes haridwar, kumbhamela seeing coming so many people for a commun cause taking out the best of human life it may be many have different ideas and what does this mean some thought that social work is the most important another thought that they have to discover the power inside and take really seriosly spiritual life sorry mistake ;) another thought that the social work is more important and other thought they must discover the inner power of them to defeat the universal forces other thought that they need material well being before taking seriously spiritual life other thougth that simply want to free from the birth and death samsara wheel and there end their problems or their duty others can seek to serve eternaly the sweet will of the supreme lord all this possibilities exists and all this offert is founded in this place called kumbha mela where all this is offered for other side, all this is a step by step growth. Not everyone can have the same ideas, many people have to go through many experiences before it can conclude that there is something higher.
So in the material world there is some element called dissilusion, frustration, actually when you want something and get that thing and not satisfied, we turn and ask: will I was clueless, I put my energy in the wrong direction? Or what happened there? I wanted such a thing, got it and I'm not more satisfied with it. How I could overcome the situation? But ther are so many people, that's an enigma.
Here in the Kumbha Mela we see that there are so many different concerns, but they all know there is something to do, something has to happen, something must understand, something they have to learn they can not stay there stagnant.
We have to leave to the fate of human life, otherwise we are stuck here, in the material world of ephemeral desires. It is the most important moment of life when we realize this eternal love, we can not stay in the mundane plane.
We need this love that can make us happy. At no time should we expect other things. Love is the supreme goal, love is our only support, love is our longing, love is our medicine, love is our price to pay, love is what makes us hope that we are walking in the right direction. Love is the thermometer to know whether something is wrong or is not as it should.
For the love of a relationship I decide whether it is worth continuing or not. It is very animating to see that many people are looking for something, and here we can understand the yearning for self-realization for many people there yet, but is weak, because man is bombarded by an impressive amount of publicity.
Advertising has bound people, knowing or not knowing what one is bound to this material world. So many that you have material desires, so many reasons that you have to return the material world. So get rid of desires is difficult, but rather, to change these desires for spiritual desires rather it is something simpler, because one change or fills the mind with something worthwhile to fill it Important: we must not ignore that our mind needs some sort of occupation.
For example, today a devout tomorrow I wonder which is more important to sing or serve?
I told him I can not separate things, because if I'm singing I'm asking for service and if I am serving, I'm thinking of the holy name and the reason why I am serving. It is very important that you feel everything together, close together in the heart all that is beautiful and important in life.
The Holy Name is the most important, but more importantly the Holy Name is to serve, because you ask for service. Here we stayed in the camp of the Sri Gaudiya Math, when we arrive i said to Tyagi Maharaj: "Truly, we came to Kumbha Mela to serve, take us here to do the work it takes.,we do not come as tourists "
I dont now if our people have already done some service here, at least we must be ourselves a bit useful so the other notice that we are the ones who want to help, thta we support, we dont want tobe used by Maya, we want to be used by Krishna.
I just want to say that to me is a very nice experience to see so many people in the Kumbh Mela that are trying to communicate and are trying to gather as much information about the eternal soul and its relationship with Krishna.
We as Gaudiya Vaishnavas, servants of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, we have many duties to perform, we have much to do.
Actually, you see that when people see the devotees and they begin to chant Hare Krishna, people get very happy, awakens in them a great joy. That's what we are or should be: voices of the joy of Krishna consciousness. My spiritual master gave us an example so beautiful, so elemental, that we should serve the cause of Krishna in this world and the cause of Krishna in this world is the cause of doing something in this plan that may approach Krishna. Krishna wants us to be close to Him
Krishna wants us to be in the spirit world. So He comes into this world to show us his Lila. The Sweet Lila of lord Caitanya was preaching, sweet Lila of lor d Krishna was to associate with its devotees.
As the sweet Lila's of lord Nrishimha dev and Prahlad Maharaj was not so sweet, it was rather frightening. It was a tragedy, until it finally appeared as lord Nrishimha dev and killed Hiranya Kashipur.
Lord Krishna adn lord Chaitanya they had such a beautiful role in this world and invite us to their eternal Lila. One wonders: will be this waiting for me in eternity?
For example, one time I pass by Chile and the street had a banner that said "where you spend eternity?" then that is a good question: where you spend your eternity?
Since we are eternal, where we're going to target?
Actually Srila Prabhupada showed us that the most beautiful to be is to be with Krishna in the Spiritual World, that is our great hope, our great dream But there is a dream Srila Sridhar Maharaj said, is really sweet.
And if its a dream in this dream i want to live: to love God and do His sweet will, in her sweet lila. That's what we would wish with our lives. There is nothing else to long, nothing else is really worth. For me at least, I can not consider anything but more worthwhile for my attention.I was meditating this whern we where with vridnavan bihari baba that is katya baba, and belongs to nimbarka sampraday he have participate with the WVA and the 4 sampradayas we have to go beyond the confinements and the limiattions that one has in this material world what we need from you is to find a service that makes you happy so happy so you can deliver your heart is my duty to find this for every devotee beacause i know when one has a service that fulfill yourself one stay firm and krishna conciusness doesnt cost so much and one is happy and well situated i feel this here a great thankfulness to srila prabhupada to come and rescue us I am going to end this chat here i am very happy in companny of all devotees that are here with us in kumbhamela in this pilgrimage in india we hope to continue with the preach here this days and then return to europe and south america to continue our job.
Jay Srila Prabhupada.
I want to say something more please dont loose enthusiasm and promote and distribute materials of the seva there is our protection often come to me devotees with problems or that something is lacking in theirlife and when I ask how many conferences have been lately or how many friends you have connected or how many times have you come to me, the answer is sankirtan this clarify your problem you can make more meetings to promote the articles of the Seva I'm very excited to open more temples, I am more encouraged to preach more and reinforce what we already have for example this beautiful book Caitanya Caritamrita, you already have it? who in this chat already have the book? and those on this chat already read it from cover to cover? and who are promoting it? in this chat or who wants to take a course of study or start a local study group in the internet of Caritamrita Caitanya? and not tell me that this expensive or that there are no copies there are hundreds of articles in the seva how many of them all you have in your personal library? and so muchnectar of the Vaisnavas, how many of them are studying in your temple? My idea of Vaisnava and Univeda Academy is to encourage devotees to study more Vaisnava philosophy, a platform to study to deepen our own understanding of philosophy and do scientific presentations in preaching
I ask you to organize study groups, courses and systematic study take notes and ask questions wrote me once in a while that you are studying and have questions, email of this type do not usually receive and support my office where I have several professionals working full time to produce materials and coordinate major projects of the preache, maintain pages, communication be part of this team is a blessing and I invite everyone to be part,you can help from home.
Thanks to technology you can give a course on Vaishnavism from home via the Internet to hundreds of people but just like all you have to make people love you and have to understand that knowledge is to serve there are many internet prajalpa easily distracts us facebook is such a good platform to preach but you can also drop in Maya there wasting time, time and we must guard against indifference because if you see bhaktipedia, you can fill your friends with this more important than to tell all your friends your todays pastimes you can fill your life with nectar all depends with whom you associate who should report what you do daily thank god my office reports progress, this makes me very happy and sometimes I see that devotees do very nice work for example it is urgent for me now distribution of okis in India we prepare okis marathon in English, Hindi and we distributed by thousands I hope there in your city have a permanent okis marathon urgent is the promotion of the farms, for this we are working on a new dvd in chile urgent is the personalize sankirtan with catalogs these issues should be talked about every Sunday is most urgent for me ,my office and my secretaries that are always there for example now in India working faitheducation two new manuals, education based oidatherapy I'm also hoping to end soon Oidatheraphys second book, the book for teachers of Inbound School of Yoga, the book of parikrama to the destinations of Vedic wisdom so please please contact my office secretaries and Sevas there are services in all areas cart records, conscius artists promotion in the art page in my offices and sevas there is no competition neither between leaders and secretaries and sanyassis we all are servers and happy we can be part of the team and be part of the team is to oofer help there is no space for excluding someone we must be a professional team we can delay important works beacause one fails
