After Sundarpur, Sri Gurupadpadma travels to Sri Ekachakra Dham, a little

"If you go door to door but you do not practise properly, householder people will not give even one rupee to you. You must practise properly, behave properly—you must become a devotee. 'Devotee' means following Mahaprabhu's teaching. We come to Krishna consciousness to please Gurudev—not to please ourselves."

Главные
качества преданного
[3 января 2019 г.]
«Если вы ходите от дома к дому, но при этом сами не практикуете как следует,
тогда люди не дадут вам даже одну рупию. Поэтому вам нужно правильно
практиковать, нужно вести себя правильно: вы должны стать преданным.
„Преданный“ подразумевает следование учению Махапрабху. Мы приходим в
сознание Кришны для того, чтобы удовлетворить Гурудева, а не для того, чтобы
удовлетворить самих себя».

"Service means you must arrange everything, then it will be proper service. You may have a good heart, but it is necessary to know some rules and regulations. When you make an aparadh you have to suffer for it."

Бхога: от
сердца и по правилами
[3 января 2019 г.]
«Служение означает, что вы должны все устроить, предоставить, тогда это будет
правильным, настоящим служением. У вас может быть хорошее сердце, но
необходимо также знать некоторые правила и предписания. Когда человек
совершает апарадху (оскробление), ему приходится за это страдать».

"Sri Ekadasi"

night chanting the Name of Krishna..."

Помогите себе и

«У вас в сутках есть двадцать четыре часа, но эти двадцать четыре часа — не
для вас. Присоединившись к семье Кришны, вы можете задействовать себя
двадцать четыре часа в сутки в служении Гуру. Те, кто получил посвящение,
должны не только повторять Святое Имя сами, но еще и проповедовать».
"Neither heaven no hell is our permanent, proper place. We come from the Lord and we should go back home—back to home, back to Godhead. Through the service to the Lord, to the Guru and Vaishnavs, you can go to your real place, which is Goloka."

отправиться в настоящее место: Голоку».

Sri Nimai Sannyas
(English, Bengali, an audio recording)
Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj's poem expressing the
grief-stricken hearts of the residents of Nabadwip: "Vishvambhar, the son
of Jagannath Mishra, who resides in Nabadwip, Sachi's Nimai, has taken
sannyas. A tumult of cries filled the sky—Sachi's Nimai has
taken sannyas!"
From Sri Sri Prema Dhama Deva Stotram:laksa-lochanasru-varsa-harsa-kesa-kartanam
koti-kantha-krsna-kirtanadhya-danda-dharanam
nyasi-vesa-sarvadesa-ha-hutasa-kataram
prema-dhama-devam eva naumi gaura-sundaram
"Sri Gaurasundara departed from Nabadwip and went away to become a sannyasi (monk), leaving behind his family members and friends whose eyes were filled with tears. He accepted the staff and waterpot as his only possessions, the emblems of a renunciate. When his long hair was cut off and his head was shaved, thousands of voices sang the holy names. The devotee's eyes shed rivers of tears, since they knew he was going into the world and leaving them behind. From that time, whoever saw him in the red garments of a sannyasi cried out loud in grief. I sing with joy the unending glories of my sweet Lord, my golden Gaurasundara, the one and only divine abode of pure love."
"Everything in this world exists for the Lord's enjoyment. Because of our ego we think these things are my things. Nothing in this world is yours. If you think that everything belongs to you and enjoy with everything, it means that you are attacked by Maya Devi."

Наслаждается,

[3 января 2019 г.]
«Все в этом мире существует для наслаждения Бога. Из-за эго мы все время
думаем, что что-то принадлежит мне. Ничто в этом мире не принадлежит вам.
Если вы думаете, что все принадлежит вам, и вы наслаждаетесь всем, это
означает, что вы находитесь под влиянием Майи Деви».
