The Soul’s Position of Eternal Service

 



(1)
hari he!
ami sei dusta-mati, na dekhiya anya gati,
taba pade lo'yechi sarana
janilama ami, natha, tumi prabhu jagannatha,
ami taba nitya parijana

Oh my dear Lord Hari! I am most fallen, and seeing no other alternative, I have fully taken shelter at Your lotus feet. Oh Lord! Now I have finally understood that You are Jagannatha, Lord of the Universe, whereas I am but Your eternal servant.

(2)
sei dina kabe ha'be, aikantika-bhave jabe,
nitya-dasa-bhava lo'ye ami
mano-rathantara jata, nihsesa koriya swatah,
sevibo amar nitya-swami

When will that day come when I take on the mood and behavior of Your un-alloyed eternal servant? Then, all other distracting desires of my mind will automatically become totally exhausted, and I will be able to whole-heartedly render service to my eternal Master.

(3)
nirantara seva-mati, bahibe cittete sati,
prasanta hoibe atma mor
e bhaktibinoda bole, krishna-seva-kutuhale,
cirodina thaki jena bhor

My soul will become fully satisfied when that day will be mine. My heart will be chaste only for You, and it will exhibit a service attitude which flows from the core of the heart with uninterrupted devotion. Bhaktivinoda says that he will thus live eternally absorbed in such a delightful flow of ecstatic loving service to Krishna.

(Song 16 / Gitamala / by Bhaktivinoda Thakura)

Honey and the Foolish Bumblebee

 


Upakhyane Upadesa

Instructive Stories from Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura


🔆🔆🔆🔆🔆🔆🔆


Honey and the Foolish Bumblebee



Once a bumblebee saw a transparent glass bottle full of honey, and it wanted to enjoy the contents. Without realising that the honey was covered by the glass bottle, the foolish bee tried again and again to relish it.

Sitting upon the bottle, the bee concluded finally that it had relished the honey. In fact, it could not even touch the honey, not to speak of relishing its sweetness. The bee was simply self-deceived.                            



PURPORT

The materialistic persons and commonplace so-called vaisnavites believe that they have relished the nectar of devotion. In fact, they can not even discover the source of transcendental mellows of devotion, Lord Krishna.

 In modern times, some people while listening to chanting and performing musical recitations of the compositions of such stalwarts like Candidas, Vidyapati and the like on the pastimes of Lord Shri Krishna, believe that they have relished the transcendental mellows of love from Lord Shri Krishna. In fact, they never reach the province of Lord Shri Krishna's pastimes or His transcendental mellows.

 Some awful religious renegade and turbulent heretic like Kalapahadh, the notorious iconoclast, may think that they can demolish and destroy Deities and temples of the Supreme Godhead, or some egotistic so-called preachers may boast of finding out quite a good number of faults and discrepancies in the holy scriptures like Shrimad Bhagavatam and Shrimad Bhagavad Gita!

 Even Ravana, the great king of demons, intended to abduct Sita Devi with an idea of enjoying her. In fact, they could not even have a look at the object of their lust and desire, not to speak of touching them. Ravana simply deceived himself by abducting only the shadow-form of Sita Devi and failed in his attempt to enjoy her.
 If anyone tears up a map of India in anger and jealousy, and thinks that he has destroyed the entire state of India, then it is nothing but his foolishness. Similarly, people who are inclined to go against Shri Hari and the spiritual masters including all Vaishnavas, under the illusory materialistic knowledge, simply expose themselves as the most foolish entities on this earth.


 Shri Chaitanyadeva has said:

       aprakrta vastu nahe prakrta gocar /
       vede puranete ei kahe nirantar //

  "Spiritual substance is never within the jurisdiction of the material
conception. This is always the verdict of the Vedas and Puranas."
                                          (Cc.Madhya Lila 9.195)
