On hearing these statements by Ramananda Raya, Lord Caitanya said:
prabhu kahe-janilun krsna-radha-prema-tattva
sunite cahiye dunhara vilasa-mahattva

"I have come to know the essence of love between Srimati Radharani and Sri Krsna. Now I wish to hear something about Their transcendental pastimes."

At 11:09pm on August 19, 2010, Gadai dasa said…

Continuation:Constant remembrance of the name, fame, and qualities of Sri Krsna are the earrings decorating Her body. The glories of Sri Krsna’s name, fame, and qualities are always inundating Her speech. She keeps Sri Krsna enlivened by the celestial drink of the incessant chanting of His qualities. In short, She is the reservoir of pure love of Krsna and She is full and complete with all the necessary qualifications in this regard. She is the perfect symbolic representation of pure love of Godhead. This fact is described in the Govinda-lilamrta (11.122) in the form of questions and answers:

THE SWING CEREMONY

Rupa-Sanatana Gaudiya Matha

[This year Jhulan-yatra begins on August 20th. Every year there is a five day festival all over Vrndavana called Jhulana-yatra, at which time the vijaya-vigraha (small) Deities of Sri Sri Radha and Krsna are swung by hundreds of thousands of Vrajabasis and others, in their various temples or homes, on a beautiful swing attached to long ropes. Srila Narayana Maharaja yearly leads this festival at Sri Kesavaji Gaudiya Matha and Sri Rupa Sanatana Gaudiya Matha, at which time he gives a short talk about the significance of this festival. The following is a translation of both his Hindi talks, given on August 8, 2003:]

In the month of Sravana (the rainy season), the clouds in the sky begin to make a thundering sound and extremely fine mist-like rain drizzles everywhere. The atmosphere is very beautiful and pleasant after the heat of the summer months, for at that time all the forests

Entering Krishna’s Family

His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta

Swami Prabhupada

Krishna in Vrindavan has got a wonderful family.

He has his father Nanda Maharaja and his mother

Yashoda. He has hundreds and thousands of boyfriends

and girlfriends. The trees, the plants, the

flowers, the fruits, the land, the water, the cows, the

calves — he is surrounded by a wonderful family.

He is not a single person. Suppose we say, “Now the

president is coming.” The president means that he is

not coming alone; he is coming with his secretaries,

ministers, some soldiers, bodyguards, and so many

other people. He is not alone. So if an insignificant

material president is always surrounded by his associates,

you can just imagine the supreme being.

He cannot be alone. That is Krishna. Krishna is

not zero. The çünyavädis say, “Everything is zero

after this.” And the nirviçeñavädis say, “Everything

is like sky.” No. Krishna is an individual, a person.

He says in the second chapter of Bhagavad-gétä,

How I revived my Krishna Consciousness & was initiated into The Hare Krishna

Mahamantra.

By Bhakta Anirudh C R [New Delhi, India]

The Following events happened with me since the Month of October 2006.

1] A Book Named “Some Guidelines towards The Goal Supreme/Inner Life”

Written by Swami Gokulananda, a Monk of the Ramakrishna Mission Order

Landed in my house from Some Junk Heap of a Neighbour. In this book, the

Significance of Mantra Diksha by a bonafide Guru and Japa Sadhana was given so

much importance that I visited The Ramakrishna Mission Order in New Delhi. Coincidentally,

The Author Swami Gokulananda was the Secretary of The Delhi

Prabhupāda: (leads chanting, etc.)

kānyakubje dvijaḥ kaścid dāsī-patir ajāmilaḥ nāmnā naṣṭa-sadācāro dāsyāḥ saṁsarga-dūṣitaḥ

So yesterday Śukadeva Gosvāmī said, “In this connection I shall cite the example, historical example, of Ajāmila.” So historical reference. It is not fiction because Kānyakubja is still there. The city of Kānyakubja is still existing there, and the Bhāgavata was written five thousand years ago. So that means the city existed before five thousand… Kānyakubje. Kānyakubje dvijaḥ. Dvija means twice-born. First-born by the father and mother, and the next birth is dvijaḥ, means by the father, spiritual master, and the mother, Vedic knowledge. This is called second birth. Saṁskārād bhaved dvijaḥ. Saṁkāra means purificatory process. So that is human life, not that to beget a child. That begetting is going on by the cats and dogs. That is not… That is fir

This is an exerpt from a conversation with Prabhbu Kriyaban Yogi Ji.

"One who succeeds in either of these paths, O Arjuna, acheives the results of both." ( sadhana/raganuga bhakti and astanga yoga)
Both, however, require bhakti. Indeed, there are many instances of children and demons and simple persons, non yogis per se, acheiving Vaikuntha, but none of those entering there without the qualification of pure bhakti in devotional service. Thus, by power of Sri Caitanya's ecstasy and Divine Mercy, extensive qualifications in yoga are not necessarily required to acheive the higest goals in this Kaliyuga.

Harinama, Harinama, Harinama eva kevalam ... repeated thrice in sastra just to convince us Kali-yuga-ites.

The bhaktas and the yogis travel by inner transcendental airplane powerd by devotional exchange, as if upon wings of purely vibrated Vaisnava mantra. They also sometimes travel by mystic yoga process, or by visible Vaikuntha Airplanes.

THE SECOND MIRACLE

By Bhagavat Das (ACBSP)

This pastime of Srila Prabhupada is related by Guru Das in his book about Srila Prabhupada “By His Example” on page 249 in the section titled Krishna’s Mercy. I am reproducing it exactly as it appears in the book.

“Late at night, when everyone else was asleep, was a nice time to be with Prabhupada. He was usually in a very mellow mood, so if I wanted to have his precious darshan I would sometimes stand outside his door and make slight noises so he would come out to see what the noise was and invite me in. We were staying in the new quarters in Mayapur, in the first of the four, large residence buildings. The sky was overcast; I was yearning for Prabhupada’s association, so I went near his rooms and made walking and chanting sounds. No servants were around, so Prabhupada came out himself saying, “Who is that?” He saw me chanting, smiled, and came all the way out of his quarters.

Srila Prabhupada walked up and down the balcony

.The chanting of the Holy Names is the most sublime religion for the Kali yuga; the Hare Krsna mantra is specifically mentioned in many Upanisads, such as the Kali-santarana U., wherein it it is said;
hare krsna hare krsna
krsna krsna hare hare
hare rama hare rama
rama rama hare hare

iti sodarsakam namnam
kali kalmasa nasanam
natah parataropayah
srav vedesu drsyate

"After searching through all the Vedic literature one cannot find a method of religion or sublime for this age that t\he chanting of Hare Krsna." CC. Adi lila 1, p 187

"Those who are advanced and highly qualified and who are interested in the essence of life know the good qualities of Kaliyuga. Such persons worship the age of Kali, because in this age, simply by chanting the Hare Krsna maha mantra, one can advance in spiritual knowledge and attain life's goal.'
- Karabhajana Muni to Maharajah Nimi, Srimad Bhagavatam, 11.5.36

by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
New York, January 4, 1967

Prabhupāda: …Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare.

nāntaṁ vidāmy aham amī munayo agrajās te māyā-balasya puruṣasya kuto ’varā ye gāyan guṇān daśa-śatānana ādi-devaḥ śeṣo ’dhunāpi samavasyati nāsya pāram

This is a verse from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. This was recited by Brahmā. The purpose of this verse is… Brahmā says that “Although I am Brahmā, and before me all the great sages, everyone, has tried to know the Supreme Lord in complete, but nobody could understand where is the end of the unlimited potencies of the Supreme Lord.”

seho rahu—sarvajña-śiromaṇi śrī-kṛṣṇa nija-guṇera anta nā pāñā hayena satṛṣṇa

Even Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Himself, He does not know how unlimited is His potency. Lord Caitanya says that. He also does not know.
