Just as we have different qualities, natures and moods that are more or less attractive to our friends and people in general.
The qualities, nature and the moods of the Goddess of Love-
This is why my Gurudeva is the most beloved and most important person in my life as a devotee of the Supreme Lord, Sri Krishna.
She, Sri Radha cannot bear to see any of us suffer, it is She who ignite every attempt for our salvation from material suffering.
My loving obeisances to all the devotees of the Lord.
Attachment is the cause of madness.
Detachment is true wealth, like a beautiful flower-garland
increasing the beauty of the wise.
We grieve, worry, hate, envy, lie, dupe and swindle when we classifies objects and persons into two divisions, mine or not mine, us and them.
To put a material label on a soul is foolishness extreme.
Krishna say; “There was never a time when I or you or any other soul, where non-existent. Nor is it right, that we shall cease to be, in the future”.
Lord Krishna says her that the bodies are perishable while the self (soul) is imperishable. It is a rule; that which exists in the beginning and the end, also exist in the middle, and what does not exist in the beginning and the end, does not exist in the middle, either.
In the absence of the material sense-object, the truth ever remains, as it is.
Krishna says; “Just as boy-hood, youth and old age changes in the physical body of the soul, does not affect the soul, neither does the change to another body at death. This realization is but one gem, in the eternal life of the wise, My servant”.
We should bear pleasure and pain with patience,
remain unaffected by them or ignore them.
Only then can we see the truth, and live in truth.
This is wisdom.
Separatism, us and them is straight out evil.
This human life, has not been given to us to experience pleasure and pain, but to attain supreme bliss, when this is obtained, we have nothing else to seek. If we remain greedy and desirous of acquiring favourable circumstances, we shall not be able to make use of those circumstances,
because our energy will be wasted in the enjoyment of those circumstances, rather than in making proper use of them. The same goes for unfavourable circumstances, because we will grieve over these.
If a person think he is materially wealthy he is a foolish thief.
Real wealth is to distribute “his” fortune to the poor and the destitute,
who has enabled him to be rich and ignorantly proud.
And if this is done to glorify Krishna, he will eternally feel wealthy.
Undesirable circumstances are painful, only when there is a desire for pleasure. If that desire is renounced, then undesirable circumstances cannot be painful. If a patient is given bitter medicines and painful injections, he is not upset, rather he is pleased, because he knows they are cures for his disease. What ever our Lord is giving to us is truly to our favour, if we are displeased with His loving care, it will result in great misery. The wise seers who has perceived the truth, see that the perishable is unreal and the imperishable is real, this realization is a requirement if we desire to live in the truth.

By
Bhaktivinoda Thakur
ohe! vaisnaba thakura, doyara sagara,

O saintly Vaishnava, ocean of mercy, be merciful to me, your servant.
Give me shelter at your feet, free me from conceit, to follow you is all that I shall want.

Calling Krishna Krishna, I follow at your feet, crying for your causeless charity.

Lord Krishna, is the sweet absolute holder of love divine.
The supreme quallity of Krishna is His love, this love has her own form and is named Goddess Radha, they are one, but two. No one can love Krishna as Radha do, and no one can love Radha as Krishna do, they are unseperable, two.
Krishna has other eternal qualities that are unsurpassable, like unlimited opulence, supreme power and He is all-attractive.
The sweetest place in existence, full of unlimited divine love, belonging to Radha-Krishna and Their loving attendants is called Goloka- Vrindavan. Krishna never leave Vrindavan.
Narayana, the Lord of the spiritual world (Vaikuntha) has potencies almost equal to Lord Krishna. He is Krishna´s expansion for enacting His pastimes.
The incarnations of the Supreme Lord are of three main categories: purusa-avataras (partial expansions), guna- avataras (qualitative incarnations), and lila-avataras (who perform specific pastimes).
There are three types of purusha-avataras.
The first is the creator of the total material energy, which He enters as the universal soul. He is known as Karanarnava- sayi Vishnu, and is the partial expansion of Lord Shankarsana in Vaikuntha.
The second purusa, the universal father of all living entities, He is known as Garbhodakasayi Vishnu and is a partial expansion of Pradyumna in Vaikuntha.
The third purusha, Ksirodaksayi Vishnu, is the Lord of the heart of every living entity and a partial expansion of Aniruddha in Vaikuntha.
We can understand from this that Krishna is not personally involved in His creation of this universe and living entities.
He that we call God and Father is an expansion of an expansion of the Supreme Lord Krishna.
Bhagavad Gita 10:41-42 “Know for certain that whatever is sublime, beautiful, and magnificent is born from a mere fraction of My potency. But Arjuna, what is the need of your understanding this elaborate klowledge of My almighty grandeur? By My fractional expansion as the Supreme Soul of the material nature, Maha-Vishnu (Karanarnavasayi Vishnu), I remain supporting this entire universe of moving and stationary beings.”
Bhagavad-gita 12:2 The Supreme Lord said: “Those who, with unalloyed faith, fully absorb their consciousness in thought of this divine Shyamasundara (Krishna) form of Mine,
and worship Me constantly by the path of exclusive devotion, are definitely the most superior knowers of divine unity. Indeed, this is My opinion.”

a new harinam initate gets the name Anjani Kumar das
a name belonging to Lord Ramachandras most loving servant Sri Hanuman
We are all servants
wether we like it or not
serving is our propensity and our inherent nature
we are namely sprit souls
aham brahmasmi
i am spirit
i am brahman
but it doesnt stop with knowing that we are brahman
the longing of the soul
the soul search
is when we come in contact with Param Brahman
Godhead or the Goddess
our natures as brahman
is to re connect
to establish a link
to link up
to connect to Godhead thru
Yoga
the tool for knowing Param Brahman
is to find a servant of the servant
Param Brahman Shree Krishna
says clearly how we as small brahman can get to know him
Just try to learn the truth by approaching a spiritual master. Inquire from him submissively and render service unto him. The self-realized soul can impart knowledge unto you because he has seen the truth.
thoose souls who have surrendered at the feet of a Guru
and that Guru has to have seen the truth
the Absolute Truth that is revealed thru a chain of perfected souls
Shyamananda parivar
is such a chain of perfected souls
Shyamananda pandit
by his love got to meet the Supreme Goddess
Shreemati Radharani
his love for Her was unchecked by any conditions
when Godhead or Goddess
grants you darshan and blessings
this is the end of our journey as seekers
and to get that perfection to be able to see and experience Godhead
is only possible
by humbly serving and following
a tattva darshi
a gazer of Godhead
a person who constantly at every time
every place
in any condition
experiences and have contact with the Supreme Brahman
to serve and honour great personalitys is in our nature
when we serve and glorify
mortal beings
celebritys
politicians
all we get is ignorance
so
when a very very fortunate soul is again connected to
Godhead its a celebration
