So we're reading Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Canto 10, Chapter 66, Pondrakā, the False Vasudeva, Verses 18 and 19. Ayodhanam tat ratavaji kunjara dvipat karo stairhi Arinavakhandhitaha Babho-chitam modavaham Manasvinam akridanam Bhutāpatehe iva uvanam Ayodhanam tadrathavāji kuñjara Ayodhanam tatrathavaji kunjara Dvipat karostrayar arinava vakhanditai Dvipat karos tayr arinava kanditay.

Tat, vet. Radha, with the chariots. Vaji, horses. Kunjara, elephants. Dvipat, two-legged, humans. Khaara, mules. Ustrayi and camels. Arina by his disc. Avakhanditayi cut to pieces. Babho shon. Chitam spread. Modha pleasure. Vaham bringing. Manasvinam to the wise. Akhridanam, the playground. Bhutapatehe. The Lord of Ghostly Spirits. Lord Shiva. Iva as if. Ulbanam, horrible. Translation. The battlefield strewn with dismembered chariots, horses, elephants, humans, mules, and camels that had been cut to pieces by the Lord's disc weapon shone like the gruesome playground of Lord Bhutapati, giving pleasure to the wise. Purport. Srila Prabhupada describes this scene as follows. Although the devastated battlefield appeared like the dancing place of Lord Shiva at the time of dissolution of the world, the warriors who were on the side of Krishna were very much encouraged by seeing this. They fought with great strength. Text number 19. At-haha pondrakam saurir bho-bho pondrakayat bhavan dutavatyana mamma ha tanya astrañ ustriyamite. Translation. Lord Krishna then undressed pondrakam. My dear pondrakam, The very weapons you spoke of through your messenger I now release into you. Purport. Śrīla Prabhupāda writes as follows in Kṛṣṇa. At this time Lord Kṛṣṇa told Pondrāka, Pondrāka, you requested me to give up my symbols of Lord Viṣṇu, specifically my disk. Now I will give it to you. Be careful. You falsely declared yourself to be Vasudeva, imitating myself, therefore no one is a greater fool than you. From this statement of Krishna, it is clear that any rascal who advertises himself as God is the greatest fool in the human society. Bhaktivedanta Svāmīniti nāmi ne Namaste sarasvāti devī Gauravāṇi prācārinne Nirmishesha sunyavādī Pāścātya desu tārinne Vāñca kaupataro vēs cākri pāsindū Vēvacāpatita nāṁ pavane bhyo Vaiṣṇava bhyo nāmona maha Jai Śri Krishna Chaitanya Prabhupādita nanda Śrī Advaita Gdātāra Śrīvāsadī Gaurā Bhaktavrinda Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. So we are reading one of the most humorous chapters of Srimad Bhagavatam, where the false Vasudev Paundraka is claiming to be God and he will write the results of his false claims. It's very interesting that in Harivamsa Purana there are more details to this story. It is explained in Srimad Bhagavatam that Pondrata became proud because of the flatterers around him. The flatterers around him used to say to him, you are the greatest, you are the best, you are Vasudeva himself, and ultimately he believed in himself. It's a very important dynamic because usually the followers make the leader. The foolish followers make the foolish leader even more foolish than he is. But in Harivamsa Purana there are interesting details to this story how the pride completely deprives someone of his intelligence. Here, Srila Prabhupada says that he is the greatest fool by quoting Krishna himself. But in Harivamsa Purana it is said that Pondraka being convinced that he is God himself, being absolutely convinced that he is Vasudev, he called all his kings who are under him the little kings whom he was ruling and he made a order very strong order from now on everyone has to call me Vasudev and if somebody will fail to call me Vasudev if somebody will fail to call me the supreme lord with all my insignia every time you would pronounce my name you have to call this is Vasudev with his chakra and with his mace and with his conch and with his padma so he made it very official and he said anyone who will fail to call me properly with all my titles he will be punished and I will extract extra taxes from him and put him in prison and then which is even more interesting then Narada Muni decided to visit this pool Narada Muni wanted to check is it real that there is somebody who is claiming to be God in the presence of God himself so Narada Muni came to visit Pondraka And Pondrak of course very politely received him. And then he started saying, My dear Narada Muni, I know you are traveling everywhere. So why don't you travel on my behalf and tell everyone that I am God? So he wanted to employ even Narada Muni to glorify himself. It's actually a very interesting dynamic because nowadays there are plenty of similar fools who are claiming to be god or demigod or whatever great personality they want to claim to be. And they usually order their followers to call them accordingly. and then they use the mass media to proclaim their glory. So in the case of Paundraga, he wanted to use Narda Muni as the original mass media representative. He specifically said, you're traveling everywhere, so who is better than you to proclaim my glory? Of course, Narda Muni said, you're a fool. I am not going to do this but it will be very interesting when you fight with Krishna himself and then I will see what's going to happen and of course Poundraka being excited by this prospect he decided to challenge Krishna and the story is explained here in Simad Bhagavatam he sent his messenger and the messenger told the message. It is explained again in Vishnu Purana and Hari Vamsa Purana that messenger was a Brahman and Brahman was also very foolish. He came on behalf of his foolish ruler and he started challenging Krishna and ultimately read the message that you should give up all your signs of fasude, give up your disc, give up your chakra and mace and padma. And Krishna said, oh, of course, I will give it up. But let me deliver all this insignia to Pondrata personally. That's my only condition. I will definitely give it to him, no problem. but I want to do it personally Krishna is very personal in his approach to all these people so he is telling this and it's very important there is very interesting but important detail in the story which is described in Srimad Bhagavatam that Balaram who is the original spiritual master was away from Dvaraka at that time. And this Pondraka, he decided to attack Dvaraka at the time when Balarama was absent because he thought it's an opportune moment and Krishna would be weaker without Balarama. And I have a good chance to finish my contester, my rival. And of course the significance of this story, very important significance of this important story, is that in the absence of spiritual master, this kind of fools starting to attack Krishna. Actually, the indication, the implied meaning of this little detail, very important implied meaning of this detail, is that it's the prime duty of a spiritual master to completely dismantle the false ideas that somebody else besides God is God. And that's exactly what Śrīla Prabhupāda was doing. He knew, he understood that this is the prime beauty of the spiritual master to completely destroy all these false ideas. Because all these fools and rascals, as Śrīla Prabhupāda very lovingly called them on numerous occasions, They can only proliferate if there is no strong preaching, if there is no strong opposition against these false claims of these fools and rascals. And therefore, Srila Prabhupada, he took special pleasure to call them fools and rascals. he practically enjoyed calling them fools and rascals again because he knew that these people who claim to be God they're destroying the chances of people to surrender to real God they're destroying the chances of people to experience something real and that's why Prabhupada was speaking so strongly against them And of course, in his pranam mantra, he proudly says, NIRVISESHESHESHUNYAVADY PASCHATYA DESHATARINE He says that this servant of Lord Chaitanya is protecting Western countries, and not only Western countries, nowadays, Eastern countries, Western countries, the whole world is nirvisesha sunyavada infested by these false ideas that everyone is God. I am God, you are God, we are all God and we can do whatever we like. Actually, Srila Prabhupada, but he was making fun of these people. Shinaji, the devotee, great devotee of our movement, he tells the story how he was the follower of Chinmayananda. And he said when he met Srila Prabhupada, he would always tell Srila Prabhupada, yeah Narasimha, Krishna, Ram they are okay they are avatars but greater than them is Brahman and they all are coming there from Brahman and Brahman is the highest and Prabhupada said who taught you this nonsense where you are coming from where is this nonsense he said Chinmayananda he is my guru and Prabhupada said this was the first challenge towards Shin Mayananda. He said, he's your guru, and he claims he's God, but he has gray hairs, and he doesn't look young. Ask your guru, why he doesn't look young? If he's the controller of the material nature, why he's getting old? And Shinaji went to his guru and said, you know, if you're a controller of this nature, why you are getting old? And Chinmayananda said, because otherwise people will not respect me. So I am getting gray hairs so that people would respect me. Shinaji went back to Srila Prabhupada and said, he is saying that, you know, otherwise people would not respect him. Srila Prabhupada said, it's a nonsense. Ask him next time when you meet him, if he is the seed-giving father of all the living entities. Krishna says that he is the seed-giving father. Please check it out if he is the seed-giving father of all the living entities. Of course, you know, that failed. And ultimately, Sinatra said, Srila Prabhupada came, met with him and said, please call Chinmoyananda for a debate with me. And Sinatra said, what will be the point of your debate? what you are going to discuss in the debate. And Prabhupada said, the point of our debate will be whether Chinmoyananda will be able to hold, to pick up the Govardhan hill and hold it for seven days. That will be the point of our debate. So, that's debate on this point. And of course, ultimately, Chimayananda had to admit that Chimayananda didn't want to debate on this point he admitted the defeat so the point here is that this is the duty of a spiritual master to destroy these false philosophies because as Prabhupada says in one very important letter this philosophy is the fourth stage of a disease. Srila Prabhupada gives a very beautiful description of the problems of a human being and he says that the problem of rebellious human beings who live in this earth are fourfold and these fourfold problems according to the extent of the gravity of the problem takes the form of the disease of this independent existence and according to the gravity of this problem the fourth stage is the most deadly one. Basically, Srila Prabhupada, he compares this disease of independent mentality. I am independent on God. I can do whatever you like I can establish any norms whatever I like I'm you know completely totally independent and he said there are four stages of this disease it's really amazing how Srila Prabhupada practically turns upside down all the dogmas of the accepted so called Hinduism because by saying that there are four stages of this disease of independence he means, believe it or not, he means Dharma Artha, Kama and Moksha these four great Purusharthas which are proclaimed all over Vedas and which are proclaimed by all the teachers, Srila Prabhupada says this is the four stages of disease the first stage of disease he says, he formulates it slightly differently, but he explains how even Dharma is a disease. You may be shocked by hearing this because according to all the accepted teachings of the Vedas, Dharma is the greatest, you know, proclaim of the Vedas and Vedic scriptures. Srila Prabhupada says that sometimes the least manifestation of this disease of independence of God is that you proclaim to be overly religious, to be zealous of religion as opposed to God. There is a very subtle problem here when we very strictly follow Dharma, like it was, of course, indicated in the story of Maharaj Yudhishthira when he was really hesitant to say that Ashvatthama was dead on the order of Krishna. When we put Dharma over God, that's the problem. sometimes people they become very religious, too much religious so much religious that they put Dharma over God himself I'm more religious than God I'm more whatever it is whatever manifestation it is and this is this very subtle manifestation of disease and therefore Prabhupada says that the first stage of this disease is to be too religious. Without understanding the essence of religion because in religion, in the real religion, Krishna says, Sarva dharma paritya jama me kam sarana prajaya. Just give up all the dharmas. Surrender unto me. Dharmas are subsidiary to me. Dharmas are derivative to me. Don't put dharmas over me. So that's the first stage of disease. And then Prabhupada says that the next stage of disease, by being overly religious, fanatically religious, you ultimately give up religion and start chasing money. That's what we have. We can see this dynamic in the human history. Perhaps America, the greatest nation of the world, is the best example of this dynamic. America started off as a very religious country. It's still, to a greater extent, a very religious country. Not of course New York and California, but besides New York and California, everything else is pretty religious. But the result of improperly understood religion, the purpose of religion is Ardha and then ultimately because you pursue Ardha, then you forget about religion itself. And that's exactly what happened with America. You know, it started off as a very religious country, as a country of religious rebels. The country where majority of population were those people who were persecuted because of their sincere pursuit of religion, who emigrated to America from Europe. But ultimately, you know, in God we trust, as it is said in dollar, but ultimately they only trust in dollar, not in God. Like the joke about this is that in God we trust, everyone else pays cash. So ultimately, the ultimate trust, the ultimate faith is invested into Ardha. And therefore Prabhupada says, Ardha is the second stage of disease. You start off as being very religious, but inadvertently, subconsciously, you think that religion is to make you prosperous in this world. And then, of course, when you become prosperous, you enjoy to the fullest extent, and karma comes. but then he says that the deadliest disease, that the deadliest extent of this disease of independence is moksha. And how moksha, which is again supposedly the most glorious achievement of a human being, the fourth purushartha, the fourth goal, the highest goal of all, how it is the fourth stage of disease, Prabhupada says, then ultimately in this progression, being frustrated in your attempts to become happy even by excessive sense gratification, ultimately you decide to become happy by proclaiming yourself to be God. I am God. I am the Supreme. So, and Prabhupada says, Actually, he writes this letter in connection with one of his disciples who was his first sannyas disciple and then ultimately started preaching Mayavad philosophy. And he said he has the fourth stage of disease. He contracted this deadly disease and ultimately nothing good will happen. And we all know what happened. Nothing good unfortunately happened. Prabhupada was right. So we have to be very clear how this progression goes. that we may start as being very, very religious by putting Dharma over God, by putting Dharma over love of God. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu himself, he came and he says, Prema Pumarta Mahan. He basically rejected all the four other goals. he said the only real goal of the human endeavors, the only real goal is prema and if you forget about prema if the prema is being overshadowed or eclipsed by other goals even if it's the goal of Dharma, as glorious as it is, as pure as it is, if it's even slightly eclipses the real goal of human endeavors, which is love of God, then the disease will progress until it reaches the fourth stage. And we know the fourth stage is incurable. The fourth stage of cancer is incurable. It is already in your bones. So this is how it goes, and we have to really see this progression or understand this unfortunate development. Sometimes we can see it when devotees, they come to Krishna consciousness movement inspired by the preaching of Srila Prabhupada, but then somehow or other they start deviating this direction or that direction. And basically there are only two directions in which we can deviate. One is karma, and karma basically means karmakanda, which means Dharma which means putting Dharma over love of God and another one is of course Mayavad or Gnana when we again say that Moksha or liberation from the sufferings is higher than God so the only proper path is the path of love and therefore it is said in Katha Upanishad that the proper path is like the razor blade. It's very narrow. It's really narrow. Sometimes inspired by Shiloh Prabhupada's preaching where he says it's the royal road to God. We forget that this royal road, it starts like royal road, but then ultimately it becomes like razor's age. the further we go the more dangerous it becomes because the deviations becomes more and more plausible more and more possible due to different problems which we have and subtlety of these problems in the beginning we are dealing with very gross problems and it's easy to deal with the gross problems but the further we come towards the path of love, the more dangerous it may become. And therefore it is very important to have the guidance of a spiritual master all the time. Sometimes people very foolishly say that we don't need the guidance. Srila Prabhupada already wrote everything. It's all in his books. But the guidance has to be there. The guidance has to be there all the way, otherwise there is a very great chance to go this direction or that direction and will ultimately deviate from this narrow path of spiritual life. It's not by mistake that Katha Umanisat proclaims this. Please get up. Raise up of human being. You get this awake to the boon, to the blessings which you are entitled to. Every human being is entitled to achieve love of God. So Kathopanishat says, yes. But then he says, what is this? the great sages, they say that this path is very difficult. This path is very difficult and it's like the razor's edge. And of course, Prabhupada many times to encourage us, the beginners on this spiritual path, he would say that this is a very easy path. And yes, it's a good preaching in the beginning, but then we have to understand that in this easy path to God, there are some dangers and problems which we will have to overcome. And one of the problems is, of course, this internal pride. Why do we need spiritual master? because the presence of spiritual master in our life can help us to remain humble. Whereas without the spiritual master, it's very easy to imagine ourselves or to fantasize ourselves that we know everything ourselves. This pride is there. The false ego is the most dangerous element of our body. It is said that you can cut some of your lungs and the lungs will regenerate. You can cut some of your liver, the liver will grow back. The false ego, you can cut false ego 99.9%. and only 0.1% of false ego remains and then after some time it's 100% back. So the false ego is the most, how you say it, is capable to regenerate or how you say this in proper English, I don't know, it's the most vital organ in our being. and therefore no matter how much you cut it, little ego remains and because little ego remains in the proper condition, in the opportune conditions, the false ego will grow up. So the most important point of achieving love of God is humility. It is explained very beautifully in Brihad Bhagavatamrita that doinya, the internal feeling that I'm fallen, internal feeling that I need protection, that I always need the shelter of Krishna and spiritual master and great Vaishnavas, this internal feeling of doinya is basically synonymous to prema. and there into interdependent relationship when the doyenye becomes great the prema grows proportionately and when prema grows proportionately the doyenye grows proportionately as soon as we catch ourselves by thinking how great we are by you know by thinking ourselves to be great preachers or great teachers or great book distributors or great kirtaniyas or great pujaris or great whatever we are we immediately have to think now I am fallen. This is the fall down. The moment this idea comes the moment the shadow of this idea comes means we are going away from Krishna. Means this disease of independence is spreading. The metastasis is the dangerous disease which we all have. The disease that I don't need anyone. I am God myself. This disease is spreading. And therefore, society of devotees is so important. Srila Prabhupada created this society and this society is a difficult society to be. Why? Because spiritual life is difficult. It's a very difficult society. There is always somebody who will cut you down. But ultimately it's good. Once Baktriya Samritomaraj told me a story. There was one Goswami from traditional background here in Vrindavan. and he started, he had very good relationship with Bhaktriya Samriti Maharaj when Bhaktriya Samriti Maharaj was the temple president here in Vrindavan. And he would come to him and say, can I take sannyas in Iskona? Can I take sannyas? I am already in my last stage of my life, I want to take sannyas in Iskona. And Bhaktriya Samriti Maharaj was very surprised by this offer and he said, He said, don't you know Iskorn? Iskorn has its problems. He said, oh yeah, I know Iskorn very well. I know Iskorn very well. Iskorn has its problem. Everyone else also has its problem. I know Vrindavan very well. I know this scene very well. But what is good in Iskorn, in Iskorn you can never grow too much. Somebody will always cut you down. So that's why I want to take Sannyas in this. So that was his logic, and that was a good logic. So ultimately that's the point, as Prabhupada says in this little purport, that when we imagine ourselves, no matter how, no matter whom we imagine ourselves, And sometimes we always imagine ourselves somehow. We always have some sort of image of ourselves. At the moment we imagine ourselves, it may not necessarily be God, somebody, you may be a little more humble and not imagine yourself as God, but you may imagine yourself as a great guru, great this or great that. But at this moment, you are deviating from the past. And the problems are awaiting for you. And that's why it's important to have spiritual guides all the time. It's important to have the society of devotees. And it's important to remain in Glorious Iskorn Mission where Prabhupada established certain culture which is sometimes little rough but ultimately very beneficial for our spiritual health. Thank you very much. We have a couple of minutes for questions. Yes, Marat. You've learned very nicely there where you started. We always need guidance. And you used the example about Śrīla Prabhupāda's books. All the guidance I need is there. It was obvious in 1977 after Śrīla Prabhupāda left. How the guidance wasn't there. So many things happened. so the Prabhupada disciples where do they get their guidance? so one has to get guidance from the spiritual master and you made it very personal one has to be able to be chastised instructed so for the last 47 years where does Shula Prabhupada's disciples get their personal guidance? I think you are in a better position to answer this question than myself. Yes, but you, you are the one that stated that, so I am asking you the question. I would say those things in the class. Honestly, how do we get that guidance? Silla Prabhupada himself gave a very important example when he said at least in two occasions, once when the conductor on the train told him, Swamiji, why you are printing these magazines, people will read magazines and throw them out, you should write the books. And then when the doctor in San Francisco came and said, you're just praying and praying and praying, you should walk more. And these two occasions, Srila Prabhupada said, my spiritual master spoke through these people. Somehow rather he recognized in a half-drunk doctor in San Francisco the voice of his spiritual master and then the instruction which the conductor and the train gave to him again the voice of his spiritual master I guess the answer to this question is that if the meditation to the instructions of the spiritual master are very deep then we can hear the voice of our spiritual master in the words of other people who approach us or in the events of our life. So I guess that's the secret. By deeply meditating on the orders of the spiritual master, and you are the best example of this deep meditation, then we can recognize how the spiritual master manifests himself. Because spiritual master is the principle. He is a person, but he is also a principle, and this principle Guru Tattva can speak through other people. So that's my best answer to this difficult question. It probably is a similar question. So you mentioned very clearly that the devotee has to always be instructed by the spiritual master to be humble. Otherwise, it may be deviant. So how does this Buddha master be in Tashjus' reality if the disciple sees him as good as God and he becomes intoxicated? Yeah, that's my starting point. This Paondraka became Paondraka because his disciples told him that he is Vasudev, not Paondraka. So, the only point is that, see, we should very clearly understand that my constitutional position is that Jivira Svarupa Hoi Krishna Nitya does. I am always does. That's my constitutional position. Incidentally, for some period of time I may play some roles, but if the role becomes my identity, I am in trouble. We may play the role of a guru, we may play the role of a father, role of a king, temple president. It's temporary roles, but when the role or the temporary role which we are playing becomes our identity, it means we are in trouble. So, no matter which role I play, I have to understand my real identity. I'm Dasa Dasa Anudasa. I'm the servant. Like Prabhupada, he was teaching this by calling his disciples as his spiritual masters. You are representatives of my spiritual master. The spiritual master has to see his disciples as the representatives of his guru, basically his gurus. That's how he should see. Yes, temporarily, yes, sometimes I have to chastise them, or sometimes I have to give the instruction, but ultimately it's a role. It's not my identity. So, we have to be reminded again and again and again, and of course, scriptures are abundant in saying that, what is our real nature. Otherwise, if Guru becomes our false ego, that's the problem. If I falsely claim I am a Guru and I try to become Guru for everyone, not for some limited number of foolish people who think I am a Guru, then it's a problem. I am Dasa, I am Dasa, Dasa Anudasa. I remember there was one devotee in Russia, and he would always, when he called somebody, he would say, I am such and such Prabhu. Please call me Prabhu. And when somebody calls you Prabhu, very soon you will expect that somebody will call you Mahaprabhus. I'm not Prabhu. I'm Dasa. No matter how other call me. Other may call me Prabhu. That's their problem. That's not my problem. My identity is I'm Dasa. Other may call me Guru. My identity I'm Dasa. I'm not Guru. I don't think I'm Guru. I'm playing the role of Guru. That's fine. But I'm not a Guru. I don't know, it's... Dharma should answer this difficult question. Thank you very much. Mahesh, whether we go to East or West, any part of the world we go, it's not India. India is supposed to be a spiritual country. So whether we come to India or America, everywhere we found rascals, robes, pretenders, any part of the world we preached, they are all like that. But in the first place, how comes? In presence of the Supreme Lord, a pretender comes, posing himself and his God, until he was claiming actually, until his arms were completely secured. Please, highlight us. See, that's, again, that's the illustration of how dangerous this idea is, how dangerous our mind is. he was completely convinced that he is God himself by the way it's written in Hari Vamsa Puran that his father was also Vasudev therefore when he was claiming that he is Vasudev he was thinking that he was right but the point is that even in presence of God, you can imagine yourself to be God. Mayavadis do this, they know the scriptures, they know Bhagavad Gita and still they think it is. So it's just the illustration how we should never trust our mind, because our mind is always there to tell how great we are. And we are little innocent souls always ready to believe our mind. But without mercy of the Lord even a blade of grass doesn't move. And He is sitting in everybody's heart as Chaita Guru. He is inspiring us from within. Still He can come down and seek the Lord? Ah, well, the blade of grass doesn't move, but we are not the blade of grass, we don't consider ourselves as a blade of grass, therefore we move independently on God. So, as soon as we consider ourselves a blade of grass, We will not move without God, but any other understanding of oneself will make us move in the wrong direction. Thank you very much. Swami Prabhupada, teacher. I just very not humbly like to say that my first book came out in English. So if somebody would be interested, these books are available here. Thank you.
