Verse: Srimad Bhagavatam - 7.10.8
Where: New Vraja-Dhama, Hungrary, September 6, 2008
Essence: ”A conditioned soul in this material world guided by imperfect senses and clogged by the fog of illusion cannot see where the path of pravrtti or sense gratification is leading. However, if he takes shelter of the transcendental radar of guru, sadhu and sastra, he can see things in their proper perspective and will be saved from the misery of this material existence.”

Ocassion: Wood Stock Festival, 2007

Essence:“We often hear glories of Pure devotees. It is important to also learn about qualification of a good disciple of such Master. Prahlad Maharaj gives us a hint regarding this in Brahmacari guru-kule verse (SB 7.12.1). A disciple after entering into guru-kula or Krishna Consciousness should practice control of his senses…either by restricting them from sense enjoyment or better yet by engaging them in Krishna’s service. The second duty is to practice being very submissive…you have to be submissive else cannot get full mercy of the Spiritual Master. And finally disciple should develop friendship or goodwill towards the Spriritual Master. Prahlad Maharaj sets a best example of how to reciprocate with mercy of Spiritual Master by starting to preach at the age of 5 years. Following in the footsteps of Prahlad Maharaj, let us try to preach to 350,000 young people at Wood Stock this year.”

Essence: “So actually this is the beginning we are training ourselves to do all these for Krsna, by this vaidhi or sadhana, it is a little hard in the beginning, but then it will become natural (bhava) and eventually it will become prema, Love of God”.
