Connection
'You cannot stay alone. You will get association if you keep connection with
me. You have taken initiation and will go back each to your own village. If
each of you arranges a programme in your own village and calls me, I will
come. This is connection.'

Eagerness
for Connection
'Many people took initiation today – they take initiation and think, 'I have
become a king!' They do not keep in touch with their gurudev after
that. They never call and speak to their gurudev. It is necessary to
keep connection. You must make an effort.'

সবকিছু অন্ধকারে ডুবে গেল
(২য় ভাগ | ২৪ এপ্রিল ২০২১)
"যখন গুরুদেব এই জগৎ থেকে চলে গেলেন তখন মনে হচ্ছিল আর বকা দেওয়ার কেউ থাকল না ।
সুখ-দুঃখের কথা সব সময় গুরুদেবের সঙ্গে আলাপ করতাম আর গুরুদেব যখন এই জগৎ থেকে
চলে গেলেন, একটা ছায়া—যেন একটা আবরণ—চলে গেল । কি হচ্ছে, কি হবে কিছুই বুঝতে
পারছিলাম না । মনে হচ্ছিল যে, আমি একা !"
Шри Йогапитх
(часть 2)
«Блаженная земля Индии, которая несёт на себе святые отпечатки стоп святого
Господа и Его преданных, является обителью религии на этой земле. Один из
семи городов, расположенных в Индии и способных даровать освобождение, — это
Шри Маяпур в Шри Дхаме Навадвип, который неотличен от Шри Матхура-мандалы. На
самом деле в мире не существует возвышенного места, которое могло бы
сравниться с Навадвипом, потому что именно здесь появился Шри Гаура-хари,
океан чистого сострадания и милости».

Today in the calendar: Gaura Panchami. Appearance of Sripad Sankaracharya. Disappearance of Tridandi-swami Srimad Bhakti Vilas Gabhastinemi Maharaj.
His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad Srila B.N. Acharya Maharaj: "Even if you do not know anything about the Vaishnav mentioned in the calendar, you must still give them 'jay' on this day. We must always remember disappearance and appearance days of all Vaishnavs. If we can remember such personalities, such great souls, it will bring a great benefit to our spiritual life."
"We should always check the calendar, and when we see some dates mentioned
there, even if we do not know anything about the Vaishnav or events mentioned
there, we can at least give 'jay' to them—that also brings some good sukriti,
some purification to us. Seeing the calendar and taking devotees' names early
in the morning, from the beginning of the day, is very good for all
devotees."
"Wake up, look into the calendar and give 'jay' to your Guru and Vaishnavs. Always pay obeisance to your Guru and Vaishnavs when you wake up in the morning, always give them 'jay'. Always keep faith and show respect to them. Always see the calendar—whose appearance day it is, whose disappearance day it is. Even if you cannot make a festival, at least you can give them 'jay', it will bring you benefit. When you give 'jay' to your Guru and Vaishnavs, it brings you sukriti. For example, today is the disappearance day of a Vaishnav—give 'jay' to him, remember him. We must always remember the words of Vaishnavs. If I remember the words of Vaishnavs, I get some benefit, some deposit through that."

Hearing the name of Sri Sankar Acharya, Paramahamsa Babaji Mahasay offered
his prostrate obeisance and said:

Keep Your
Vision Straight
'You must always avoid criticising and disrespecting Vaishnavs. I have heard
many people speak like that, and I have heard somebody say this today, too.
It reminded me of one time when one of Gurudev's godbrothers came to Gurudev
and complained about me.'

Entering the
Right Current

initiation, and when you come upstairs, I will give you the beads. Please
listen carefully to what I will say. We must remember our line.'

Irreconcilable Difference
'People come from all temples, but that Math people always go to the temple
over there. They do not come here. That is why I also offer obeisance to them
from far. As Srila Janardan Maharaj said, "If somebody does not like Gurudev,
if somebody does not like Gurudev's line, I will offer obeisances to them
from ten thousand miles away."'
