I will come to teach the process of chanting maha mantra: CC adi 3.20

CC Ends with,

ātma-sphūrti nāhi kṛṣṇa-bhāvāveśe
forgot Himself; kṛṣṇa-bhāva-āveśe — being merged in ecstatic love for Kṛṣṇa.
LCM is magnanimous incarnation Namo maha vadanyaya. Why?
Krishna Prema pradayate.
SP Letter to Dr. Rajendra Prasad, President of Indian Union -- Delhi 21 November, 1956:
As the most magnanimous incarnation of Sri Krishna, the Personality of Sri Krishna Caitanya has made
the path of going "Back to Godhead" so easy for every one that even a boy of the world can swim across
the ocean of religiosity, although it is injected with so many dangerous animals ready to devour up a
fallen person in that great massive water.
Why Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is the most munificent incarnation ?
antah krishnam bahir gauram
darshitangadi-vaibhavam
kalau sankirtanadyaih smah
krishna-chaitanyam ashritah
In this Age of Kali we have taken shelter of Krishna Chaitanya by congregationally chanting the Lord’s
holy names and performing other devotional practices. Blackish within but golden without, He exhibits
all His opulences, beginning with His bodily features.-Bhagavat Sandharbha Text 2
He was more generous than any previous avatara, including Lord Krishna Himself, who advised in the
Bhagavad-gita (18.66):
sarva-dharman parityajya/ mam ekam sharanam vraja
aham tvam sarva-papebhyo/ mokshayishyami ma shucah
kaler dosha-nidher rajan/ asti hy eko mahan gunah
kirtanad eva krishnasya/ mukta-sangah param vrajet
krite yad dhyayato vishnum/ tretayam yajato makhaih
dvapare paricaryayam/ kalau tad dhari-kirtanat
kritadishu praja rajan/ kalav icchanti sambhavam
kalau khalu bhavishyanti/ narayana-parayanah
“My dear King, the inhabitants of Satya-yuga and other ages eagerly desire to take birth in this Age of
Kali, since in this age there will be many devotees of the Supreme Lord, Narayana” (Bhag. 11.5.38).
LCM’s Birth and next day Jagannath Mishra utsav:
Before LCM and Vishvarup was born 8 daughters of Saci n Jagannath misra died without any reason.
Six sons of Vasudev and Devaki died or killed before Krishna was born. These 6 represent 6 anarthas
kama kroda….
What the eight daughters of sachi mata represent ?
Eight coverings of this world, bhinname prakrtir ashtada.
Five gross and 3 subtle elements,
Which is very strong and difficult to overcome?
More the subtle more difficult to cross it. False ego.
What is the false ego’s connection to LCM’s teachings? Trinadapi sunicena tarorapi…amanima
manadena kirtaniya sada hari…
Chaitanya Bhagavata:
CB Adikhanda Ch 3.1-50
Neem tree benefits…
About Srila Prabhupada:
Without Glorifying any celebration in ISKCON will not begin or end.
Before 1970-75 no body knew the word Krishna is God….
Srutakirti Pr said, Gaura purnima with SP
SP was travelling many places in 1975 in two months he travelled 14 countries, he was happy seeing the
westeners taking to chanting process, 100’s of devotees attending every place he went.
In Maimi…Feb .while Speaking about parama karuna pahu dui jana…most merciful LCM and
Nityananda…..choked up…take shelter of LCM n NP, than k you very much….closed his eyes…stream of
water coming from SP’s eyes.
In Mayapur SP went in ecstasy in the middle of gaura purnima class 500 devotees from west were
sitting, devotees didn’t know what to do? Pindrop silence for few minutes then suddenly one devotee’
namo om Vishnu pada… kirtan started’ some dev said we should have kept quite, why did they disturb.
Then SP started playing kartal….ended the class.
1. Later in the day, Brahmanand Swami secretary of SP wanted to ask SP what to do when he goes
in trance like this.
2. SP do u know this morning, you went in ecstacy in class? What shld we do at that time, we did
not know?
SP ‘I don’t do that very often’…then he as asking again the SP said “ it is not an important thing”.
Should we do Kirtan or wait? SP said Chant Hare Krishna. That’s his humility
Once, SP was speaking on how imp is to remember at the time of death.
On Spanish mtji asked SP: SP what if at time of death we remember you?
SP: (in soft humble tome)that’s all right
prasärita-mahä-prema-péyüña-rasa-sägare
caitanya-candre prakaöe yo déno déna eva saù
”A person who does not take advantage of the nectar of devotional service
overflowing during the presence of Çré Caitanya Mahäprabhu’s cult is certainly the
poorest of the poor.”
avatérëe gaura-candre vistérëe prema-sägare
suprakäçita-ratnaughe yo déno déna eva saù
”The advent of Lord Caitanya Mahäprabhu is just like an expanding ocean of nectar.
One who does not collect the valuable jewels within this ocean is certainly the
poorest of the poor.”
Similarly, Çrémad-Bhägavatam (2.3.19, 20, 23) states:
Four Gifts of LCM to us.
Çréla Cakravarté Öhäkura has written:
ārādhyo bhagavān vrajeśa-tanayas tad-dhāma vṛndāvanaṁ
ramyā kācid upāsanā vraja-vadhū-vargeṇa yā kalpitā |
śāstraṁ bhāgavataṁ pramāṇam amalaṁ premā pumārtho mahān
itthaṁ gaura-mahāprabhor matam atas tatrādaro naḥ paraḥ ||
(Caitanya-mata-mañjuṣā: 1.1)
“‘The object of worship is Bhagavān(His name also), the Son of Vraja’s king.
His abode is Vṛndāvana. The lovely worship [that is to be performed] is that
which is performed by the ladies of Vraja. The flawless pramāṇa [i.e., means of
knowing these conclusions] is the śāstra [Śrīmad] Bhāgavatam, and the [rightful
ultimate] aim of a human being is prema.’ This is the view of Gaura Mahāprabhu,
and thus we have the highest regard for it.”
ärädhyo bhagavän vrajeça-tanayas(1 and Nama abhinnatvam nama) tad-
dhäma våndävanaà(2)
ramyä käcid upäsanä vraja-vadhü(3)-vargeëa yä kalpitä
çrémad-bhägavataà(4) pramäëam amalaà premä pum-artho
mahän(5)
çré-caitanya-mahäprabhor matam idaà taträdaräù naù paraù
“The Supreme Personality of Godhead, the son of Nanda Mahäräja, is to
be worshiped along with His transcendental abode, Våndävana. The
most pleasing form of worship for the Lord is that which was performed
by the gopés of Våndävaëa. Çrémad Bhägavatam is the spotless
authority, and pure love of God is the ultimate goal of life. These
statements, for which we have the highest regard, are the opinion of Çré
Caitanya Mahäprabhu..
