Krishna Seva

[Trushna]

Jai Shree Krishna,

Pushtidasji this article has really got me thinking! (Thankyou!!) It is apparent that being a sevak goes beyond being a das, however, this also indicates to me that a true sevak would actually not even be aware of being a sevak, and in their own mind should be trying to be a das no das?

It is also known that Tadrushi Vaishnavs even when they get Thakorji's sanubhav do not let others know! Ras Pragat Kiye Ras Jay!

Jai Shri Krishna,


Manishbhai, no need for thanks here it is my duty.

I love this job as my bosses are so good and the pay is lovely! Would you believe it lots of Makhan and Misri daily.

No place in this universe I will get such a job and paid daily for my hard work though sometimes I feel like getting a raise but will keep mum.

Jo Prabhu kare so bali kare! (Bhagwad Gita also states do your work without expectations of any fruit!)

Unnatiji, Re Shikshapatra 9, you chose Bhakti Vardhani but there was one more Granth by Shri Mahaprabhuji on Prem, Asakti and Vysan

TrividhNamavali is written by Shri Mahaprabhuji for Shri Gusainji.

Shri Gusainji used to daily read Shri Bhagvad's dasam skandh and then only He used to take food.

Shri Mahaprabhuji wrote Trividhnamavali-names of Shri Krishna from Bhagvad dasam skandh in three groups Bal-lila, Praudh-lila, Raj-lila.
The three ways leading to Prem/Asakti/Vyasan.

Jai Shri KRishna,

Pushtidasji, the lenght of the post can be much more bigger

thanks for explaining the stages, can you please explain Tadiya in a bit more detail. I read a couple of times, but could not follow it fully.

Also when you say
"do I get better in my path of devotion? If answer is "YES" then you have found Tadiya vaishnav. If the answer is "NO" then you have to move on.
"

Please pardon my stupid question, but that way all the Tadiya Vaishnavs or those who are senior to us, will just move on. As they will definetly not make progress having satsang to us.
Or rather to should even do satsang if it is also for the benefit of themselves and others..

I hope my query makes some sense.

Jai Shri Krishna

Jai Shri Krishna,

I can understand some of you patiently waiting for the next letter so here it goes and sorry for the delay.

Shiksahpatra number 11 has only six shloks smallest one like number 39 will also have only six shloks

This shikshapatra details out the char (four) Kartaviyas. God will always favor His bhaktas so never loose faith.

Always keep your heart and mind absorbed in Shri Mahaprabhuji’s lotus feet then only one will be blessed with all the Krishna Lilas (imagine and dream about Yugal Geet, Venu Geet, Gopi Geet etc.)

One must do bhajans (kirtans), feel sad for being away from God, feel the pangs of separation, remember Him constantly, have humility and renunciation and leave the world pleasures at a distant.

Keep reading Shrimad Bhagwad till one reaches the stage where he/she feels the pangs of His separation, devote yourself completely in seva and gently one will achieve humility and His feelings of pangs of separation will bring forth the renunciation.

When above is all perfected then there is nothing else in this world to desire for. The source of same can come to us thru satsang .

(At krishnaseva.com with all gems (vaishnavs) mingling daily in satsang Ha Ha ! )

Without satsang fruit cannot be achieved.

(so vaishnavs please do not forget to log on daily for satsang ! )

Jai Shree Krishna

Well done Vasantbhai, yes satsang is very important.
I am enjoying the posting and the flow is good as well.

Manishji, I do not want to change the flow of this Shikshapatra vivran, I will answer your question in as a seperate question. Please bear with me, as I am at the moment involved in Sapta swaroop utsava which is on 20th May 2006.

Thankyou Pushtidasji, yes without satsang is like we are eating mithai cooked in oil instead of pure ghee.

Shiksahpatra number 12 has 16 shloks on Swamini Bhavna.

Shlok 1

Always create a feeling as Shri Swamininji has for Shri Krishna the way she cannot be separated from her beloved Shri Krishna and always prefers His closeness.

This marg is full of taap and klesh as said by Shri Mahaprabhuji where even Shri Swaminiji cries in pain calling Him (Shri Krishna her beloved) different names, for being separated by her beloved God (Shri Krishna) even for a moment.

Shlok 2

1) Hey Gopish ------ ( Hey lover of Gopis),
2) Hey Gokulanand dayak --------- (Hey Gokul’s bliss giver),
3) Hey Govind -----------(one who grazes the cows),
4) Gopavanitapanadheep -------- Oh ! Lover of cowherds !
5) Krupanidhay -------- O treasure of mercy!

Please come and give us darshans.

Shlok 3

6) Hey Gopal -------- ( Oh ! protector of cows) !
7) Hey Palitvraj --------- Hey protector of Vraj!
Hey Nijvrajsukhambudhay -------- Hey belover of bhaktas!
9) Hey Parmanand ----- (one who gives immense pleasure is Poorna Purshottam),
10) Hey Nanda-diruchi-ro-sanga-lalit -------- the one who plays in the laps of Shri Nandraiji

Please come and give darshans.

(Shloks one, two and three have been done balance will write the names as cried out by Shri Swaminiji. Please note that each and every name has a deep meaning will leave for bhavik vaishnavs to explain and you all can discuss that till I return) !!!

Shlok 16
-----------------

This way Shri Swaminiji is shedding her tears (Jal dhara) for her beloved Shri Krishna with this bhavna we should feel the same (pain of separation) for Shri Thakurji.

Bholo Shri Swaminiji Ki Jai and please start discussing those names and with Pushtidasji's help nothing is difficult I will return by May 26th and add next shikshapatra number 13th.
Jai Shri Krishna to all.

JAI SHRI KRISHNA
Vasant bhai i went through shikshaptra but i didn`t udersatnd a word y so is this lack of knowledge or lack of concentration ?

[Ranjangg]

jai shri krishna
vasant bhai i think i should go on and on reading the meanings u have given then only i can understand the shikshapatra better way. i think i am a slow learner so it will take time to understand. please don`t mind if i write again for meanings which i don`t understand.
