I meditate upon Him, the transcendent reality, who is the primeval cause of all causes, from whom all manifested universes arise, in whom they dwell and by whom they are destroyed. I meditate upon that eternally effulgent Lord who is directly and indirectly conscious of all manifestations and yet is beyond them. It is He only who first imparted Vedic knowledge unto the heart of Brahmā, the first created being. Through Him this world, like a mirage, appears real even to great sages and demigods. Because of Him, the material universes, created by the three modes of nature, appear to be factual, although they are unreal. I meditate therefore upon Him, the Absolute Truth, who is eternally existent in His transcendental abode, and who is forever free of illusion.", + "purport": [ + "Obeisances unto the Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva, directly indicate Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is the divine son of Vasudeva and Devakī. This fact will be more explicitly explained in the text of this work. Śrī Vyāsadeva asserts herein that Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original Personality of Godhead, and all others are His direct or indirect plenary portions or portions of the portion. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has even more explicitly explained the subject matter in his Kṛṣṇa-sandarbha. And Brahmā, the original living being, has explained the subject of Śrī Kṛṣṇa substantially in his treatise named Brahma-saṁhitā. In the Sāma-veda Upaniṣad, it is also stated that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the divine son of Devakī. Therefore, in this prayer, the first proposition holds that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the primeval Lord, and if any transcendental nomenclature is to be understood as belonging to the Absolute Personality of Godhead, it must be the name indicated by the word Kṛṣṇa, which means the all-attractive. In Bhagavad-gītā, in many places, the Lord asserts Himself to be the original Personality of Godhead, and this is confirmed by Arjuna, and also by great sages like Nārada, Vyāsa, and many others. In the Padma Purāṇa, it is also stated that out of the innumerable names of the Lord, the name of Kṛṣṇa is the principal one. Vāsudeva indicates the plenary portion of the Personality of Godhead, and all the different forms of the Lord, being identical with Vāsudeva, are indicated in this text. The name Vāsudeva particularly indicates the divine son of Vasudeva and Devakī. Śrī Kṛṣṇa is always meditated upon by the paramahaṁsas who are the perfected ones among those in the renounced order of life.", + "Vāsudeva, or Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, is the cause of all causes. Everything that exists emanates from the Lord. How this is so is explained in later chapters of this work. This work is described by Mahāprabhu Śrī Caitanya as the spotless Purāṇa because it contains the transcendental narration of the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa. The history of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is also very glorious. It was compiled by Śrī Vyāsadeva after he had attained maturity in transcendental knowledge. He wrote this under the instructions of Śrī Nāradajī, his spiritual master. Vyāsadeva compiled all Vedic literatures containing the four divisions of the Vedas, the Vedānta-sūtras or the Brahma-sūtras, the Purāṇas, the Mahābhārata, and so on. But nevertheless he was not satisfied. His dissatisfaction was observed by his spiritual master, and thus Nārada advised him to write on the transcendental activities of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. These transcendental activities are described specifically in the Tenth Canto of this work. But, in order to reach to the very substance, one must proceed gradually by developing knowledge of the categories.", + "It is natural that a philosophical mind wants to know about the origin of the creation. At night he sees the stars in the sky, and he naturally speculates about their inhabitants. Such inquiries are natural for man because man has a developed consciousness which is higher than that of the animals. The author of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives a direct answer to such inquiries. He says that the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the origin of all creations. He is not only the creator of the universe, but the destroyer as well. The manifested cosmic nature is created at a certain period by the will of the Lord. It is maintained for some time, and then it is annihilated by His will. Therefore, the supreme will is behind all cosmic activities. Of course, there are atheists of various catagories who do not believe in a creator, but that is due to a poor fund of knowledge.", + "The modern scientist, for example, has created space satellites, and by some arrangement or other, these satellites are thrown into outer space to fly for some time at the control of the scientist who is far away. Similarly, all the universes with innumerable stars and planets are controlled by the intelligence of the Personality of Godhead.", + "In Vedic literatures, it is said that the Absolute Truth, Personality of Godhead, is the chief amongst all living personalities. All living beings beginning from the first created being, Brahmā, down to the smallest ant are individual living beings. And above Brahmā, there are even other living beings with individual capacities, and the Personality of Godhead is also a similar living being. And He is an individual as are the other living beings. But the Supreme Lord or the supreme living being has the greatest intelligence, and He possesses supermost inconceivable energies of all different varieties. If a man's brain can produce a space satellite, one can very easily imagine how brains higher than man can produce similarly wonderful things which are far superior. The reasonable person will easily accept this argument, but there are stubborn atheists who would never agree. Śrīla Vyāsadeva, however, at once accepts the supreme intelligence as the parameśvara. He offers his respectful obeisances unto the supreme intelligence addressed as the para or the parameśvara or the Supreme Personality of Godhead. And that parameśvara is Śrī Kṛṣṇa, as admitted in Bhagavad-gītā and other scriptures delivered by Śrī Vyāsadeva and specifically in this Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. In Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord says that there is no other Para-tattva (summum bonum) than Himself. Therefore, Śrī Vyāsadeva at once worships the Para-tattva, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, whose transcendental activities are described in the Tenth Canto.", + "Unscrupulous persons go immediately to the Tenth Canto and especially to the five chapters which describe the Lord's rāsa dance. This portion of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the most confidential part of this great literature. Unless one is thoroughly accomplished in the transcendental knowledge of the Lord, one is sure to misunderstand the Lord's worshipable transcendental pastimes called rāsa dance and His love affairs with the gopīs. This subject matter is highly spiritual, and only the liberated persons who have gradually attained to the stage of paramahaṁsa can transcendentally relish this rāsa dance.Śrīla Vyāsadeva therefore gives the reader the chance to gradually develop spiritual realization before actually relishing the essence of the pastimes of the Lord. Therefore, he purposely invokes a Gāyatrī mantra, dhīmahi. This Gāyatrī mantra is meant for spiritually advanced people. When one is successful in chanting the Gāyatrī mantra, he can enter into the transcendental position of the Lord. One must therefore acquire brahminical qualities or be perfectly situated in the quality of goodness in order to chant the Gāyatrī mantra successfully and then attain to the stage of transcendentally realizing the Lord, His name, His fame, His qualities and so on.", + "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the narration of the svarūpa of the Lord manifested by His internal potency, and this potency is distinguished from the external potency which has manifested the cosmic world, which is within our experience. Śrīla Vyāsadeva makes a clear distinction between the two in this śloka. Śrī Vyāsadeva says herein that the manifested internal potency is real, whereas the external manifested energy in the form of material existence is only temporary and illusory like the mirage in the desert. In the desert mirage there is no actual water. There is only the appearance of water. Real water is somewhere else. The manifested cosmic creation appears as reality. But reality, of which this is but a shadow, is in the spiritual world. Absolute Truth is in the spiritual sky, not the material sky. In the material sky everything is relative truth. That is to say, one truth depends on something else. This cosmic creation results from interaction of the three modes of nature, and the temporary manifestations are so created as to present an illusion of reality to the bewildered mind of the conditioned soul, who appears in so many species of life, including the higher demigods, like Brahmā, Indra, Candra, and so on. In actuality, there is no reality in the manifested world. There appears to be reality, however, because of the true reality which exists in the spiritual world, where the Personality of Godhead eternally exists with His transcendental paraphernalia.", + "The chief engineer of a complicated construction does not personally take part in the construction, but he knows every nook and corner because everything is done under his direction. He knows everything about the construction, both directly and indirectly. Similarly, the Personality of Godhead who is the supreme engineer of this cosmic creation knows every nook and corner, although affairs are being carried out by demigods. Beginning from Brahmā down to the insignificant ant, no one is independent in the material creation. The hand of the Lord is seen everywhere. All material elements as well as all spiritual sparks emanate from Him only. And whatever is created in this material world is but the interaction of two energies, the material and the spiritual, which emanate from the Absolute Truth, the Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. A chemist can manufacture water in the chemical laboratory by mixing hydrogen and oxygen. But, in reality, the living entity works in the laboratory under the direction of the Supreme Lord. And the materials with which he works are also supplied by the Lord. The Lord knows everything directly and indirectly, and He is cognizant of all minute details, and He is fully independent. He is compared with the mine of gold, and the cosmic creations in so many different forms are compared with objects made from the gold, such as gold rings, necklaces and so on. The gold ring and the gold necklace are qualitatively one with the gold in the mine, but quantitatively the gold in the mine is different. Therefore, the Absolute Truth is simultaneously one and different. Nothing is absolutely equal with the Absolute Truth, but at the same time, nothing is independent of the Absolute Truth.", + "Conditioned souls beginning from Brahmā, who engineers the entire universe, down to the insignificant ant, are all creating, but none of them are independent of the Supreme Lord. The materialist wrongly thinks that there is no creator other than his own self. This is called māyā, or illusion. Because of his poor fund of knowledge, the materialist cannot see beyond the purview of his imperfect senses, and thus he thinks that matter automatically takes its own shape without the aid of a superior intelligence. This is refuted in this śloka by Śrīla Vyāsadeva: \"Since the complete whole or the Absolute Truth is the source of everything, nothing can be independent of the body of the Absolute Truth.\" Whatever happens to the body quickly becomes known to the embodied. Similarly, the creation is the body of the absolute whole. Therefore, the Absolute knows everything directly and indirectly that happens in the creation.", + "In the Śruti mantra, it is also stated that the absolute whole or Brahman is the ultimate source of everything. Everything emanates from Him, and everything is maintained by Him. And at the end, everything enters into Him. That is the law of nature. In the Smṛti mantra, the same is confirmed. It is said that the source from which everything emanates at the beginning of Brahmā's millennium, and the reservoir to which everything ultimately enters, is the Absolute Truth or Brahman. Material scientists take it for granted that the ultimate source of the planetary system is the sun, but they are unable to explain the source of the sun. Herein, the ultimate source is explained. According to the Vedic literatures, Brahmā, who may be compared to the sun, is not the ultimate creator. It is stated in this śloka that Brahmā was taught Vedic knowledge by the Personality of Godhead. One may argue that Brahmā, being the original living being, could not be inspired because there was no other being living at that time. Herein it is stated that the Supreme Lord inspired the secondary creator, Brahmā, in order that Brahmā could carry out his creative functions. So, the supreme intelligence behind all creations is the Absolute Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. In Bhagavad-gītā, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa states that it is He only who superintends the creative energy, prakṛti, which constitutes the totality of matter. Therefore, Śrī Vyāsadeva does not worship Brahmā, but the Supreme Lord, who guides Brahmā in his creative activities. In this śloka, the particular words abhijñaḥ and svarāṭ are significant. These two words distinguish the Supreme Lord from all the other living entities. No other living entity is either abhijñaḥ or svarāṭ. Namely, no one is either fully cognizant or fully independent. Even Brahmā has to meditate upon the Supreme Lord in order to create. Then what to speak of great scientists like Einstein! The brains of such a scientist are certainly not the products of any human being. Scientists cannot manufacture such a brain, and what to speak of foolish atheists who defy the authority of the Lord? Even Māyāvādī impersonalists who flatter themselves that they can become one with the Lord are neither abhijñaḥ nor svarāṭ. Such impersonalists undergo severe austerities to acquire knowledge to become one with the Lord. But ultimately they become dependent on some rich disciple who supplies them with money to build monasteries and temples. Atheists like Rāvaṇa or Hiraṇyakaśipu had to undergo severe penances before they could flout the authority of the Lord. But ultimately, they were rendered helpless and could not save themselves when the Lord appeared before them as cruel death. This is also the case with the modern atheists who also dare to flout the authority of the Lord. Such atheists will be dealt with similarly, for history repeats itself. Whenever men neglect the authority of the Lord, nature and her laws are there to penalize them. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā in the well-known verse: yadā yadā hi dharmasya glāniḥ. \"Whenever there is a decline of dharma and a rise of adharma, O Arjuna, then I incarnate Myself.\" (Bg. 4.7)", + "That the Supreme Lord is all-perfect is confirmed in all Śruti mantras. It is said in the Śruti mantras that the all-perfect Lord threw a glance over matter and thus created all living beings. The living beings are parts and parcels of the Lord, and He impregnates the vast material creation with seeds of spiritual sparks, and thus the creative energies are set in motion to enact so many wonderful creations. An atheist may argue that God is no more expert than a watchmaker, but of course God is greater because He can create machines in duplicate male and female forms. The male and female forms of different types of machineries go on producing innumerable similar machines without God's further attention. If a man could manufacture such a set of machines that could produce other machines without his attention, then he could approach the intelligence of God. But that is not possible, for each machine has to be handled individually. Therefore, no one can create as well as God. Another name for God is asmaurdha, which means that no one is equal to or greater than Him. Param satyam, or the Supreme Truth, is He who has no equal or superior. This is confirmed in the Śruti mantras. It is said that before the creation of the material universe there existed the Lord only, who is master of everyone. That Lord instructed Brahmā in Vedic knowledge. That Lord has to be obeyed in all respects. Anyone who wants to get rid of the material entanglement must surrender unto Him. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā.", + "Unless one surrenders unto the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord, it is certain that he will be bewildered. When an intelligent man surrenders unto the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa and knows completely that Kṛṣṇa is the cause of all causes, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, then only can such an intelligent man become a mahātmā or great soul. But such a great soul is rarely seen. Only the mahātmās can understand that the Supreme Lord is the primeval cause of all creations. He is parama or ultimate truth because all other truths are relative to Him. He is omniscient. For Him, there is no illusion.", + "Some Māyāvādī scholars argue that Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was not compiled by Śrī Vyāsadeva. And some of them suggest that this book is a modern creation written by someone named Vopadeva. In order to refute such meaningless arguments, Śrī Śrīdhara Svāmī points out that there is reference to the Bhāgavatam in many of the oldest Purāṇas. This first śloka of the Bhāgavatam begins with the Gāyatrī mantra. There is reference to this in the Matsya Purāṇa, which is the oldest Purāṇa. In that Purāṇa, it is said with reference to the Gāyatrī mantra in the Bhāgavatam that there are many narrations of spiritual instructions beginning with the Gāyatrī mantra. And there is the history of Vṛtrāsura. Anyone who makes a gift of this great work on a full moon day attains to the highest perfection of life by returning to Godhead. There is reference to the Bhāgavatam in other Purāṇas, also, where it is clearly stated that this work was finished in twelve cantos which include 18,000 ślokas. In the Padma Purāṇa also there is reference to the Bhāgavatam in a conversation between Gautama and Mahārāja Ambarīṣa. The King was advised therein to read regularly Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam if he desired liberation from material bondage. Under the circumstances, there is no doubt about the authority of the Bhāgavatam. Within the past 500 years, many erudite scholars and ācāryas like Jīva Gosvāmī, Sanātana Gosvāmī, Viśvanātha Cakravartī, Vallabhācārya, and many other distinguished scholars even after the time of Lord Caitanya made elaborate commentaries on the Bhāgavatam. And the serious student would do well to attempt to go through them to better relish the transcendental messages.", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur specifically deals with the original and pure sex psychology (ādi-rasa), devoid of all mundane inebriety. The whole material creation is moving under the principle of sex life. In modern civilization, sex life is the focal point for all activities. Wherever one turns his face, he sees sex life predominant. Therefore, sex life is not unreal. Its reality is experienced in the spiritual world. The material sex life is but a perverted reflection of the original fact. The original fact is in the Absolute Truth, and thus the Absolute Truth cannot be impersonal. It is not possible to be impersonal and contain pure sex life. Consequently, the impersonalist philosophers have given indirect impetus to the abominable mundane sex life because they have overstressed the impersonality of the ultimate truth. Consequently, man without information of the actual spiritual form of sex has accepted perverted material sex life as the all in all. There is a distinction between sex life in the diseased material condition and spiritual sex life.", + "This Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam will gradually elevate the unbiased reader to the highest perfectional stage of transcendence. It will enable him to transcend the three modes of material activities: fruitive actions, speculative philosophy, and worship of functional deities as inculcated in Vedic verses." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..285dabdd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,197 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 1.1.2", + "devanagari": "धर्मः प्रोज्झितकैतवो ऽत्र परमो निर्मत्सराणां सतां वेद्यं वास्तवम् अत्र वस्तु शिवदं तापत्रयोन्मूलनम्\nश्रीमद्भागवते महामुनिकृते किं वा परैर् ईश्वरः सद्यो हृद्य् अवरुध्यते ऽत्र कृतिभिः शुश्रूषुभिस्तत्क्षणात्", + "transliteration": "dharmaḥ projjhita-kaitavo 'tra paramo nirmatsarāṇāṁ satāṁ\nvedyaṁ vāstavam atra vastu śivadaṁ tāpa-trayonmūlanam\nśrīmad bhāgavate mahāmuni-kṛte kiṁ vā parair īśvaraḥ\nsadyo hṛdy avarudhyate 'tra kṛtibhiḥ śuśrūṣubhis tatkṣaṇāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dharmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "religiosity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "projjhita", + "meanings": [ + "completely rejected" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaitavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "covered by fruitive intention" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atra", + "meanings": [ + "herein" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paramaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the highest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirmatsarāṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of the one hundred percent pure in heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satām", + "meanings": [ + "devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vedyam", + "meanings": [ + "understandable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāstavam", + "meanings": [ + "factual" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atra", + "meanings": [ + "herein" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vastu", + "meanings": [ + "substance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śivadam", + "meanings": [ + "well-being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāpa-traya", + "meanings": [ + "three-fold miseries" + ] + }, + { + "word": "unmūlanam", + "meanings": [ + "causing uprooting of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrīmat", + "meanings": [ + "beautiful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavate", + "meanings": [ + "the Bhāgavata Purāṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahāmuni", + "meanings": [ + "the great sage (Vyāsadeva)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛte", + "meanings": [ + "having compiled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "the need" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "at once" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdi", + "meanings": [ + "within the heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avarudhyate", + "meanings": [ + "become compact" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atra", + "meanings": [ + "herein" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the pious men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuśrūṣubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by culture" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-kṣaṇāt", + "meanings": [ + "without delay." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Completely rejecting all religious activities which are materially motivated, this Bhāgavata Purāṇa propounds the highest truth, which is understandable by those devotees who are pure in heart.

Irreligious life is a barbarous condition. Indeed, human life begins when religion begins. Eating, sleeping, fearing, and mating are the four principles of animal life. These are common both to animals and to human beings. But religion is the extra function of the human being. Without religion, human life is no better than animal life. Therefore, in human societies there is some form of religion which aims at self-realization and which makes reference to man's eternal relationship with God.", + "In the lower stages of human civilization, there is always competition to lord it over the material nature or, in other words, there is a continuous rivalry to satisfy the senses. Driven by such consciousness, man turns to religion. He thus performs pious activities or religious functions in order to gain something material. But if such material gains are obtainable in other ways, then so-called religion is neglected. This is the situation in modern civilization. Man is thriving economically, so at present he is not very interested in religion. Churches, mosques or temples are now practically vacant. Men are more interested in factories, shops, and cinemas than in religious places which were erected by their forefathers. This practically proves that religion is performed for some economic gains. Economic gains are needed for sense gratification. Often when one is baffled in the pursuit of sense gratification, he takes to salvation and tries to become one with the Supreme Lord. Consequently, all these states are simply different types of sense gratification.", + "In the Vedas, the above mentioned four activities are prescribed in the regulative way so that there will not be any undue competition for sense gratification. But Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is transcendental to all these sense gratificatory activities. It is purely transcendental literature which can be understood only by the pure devotees of the Lord who are transcendental to competitive sense gratification. In the material world there is keen competition between animal and animal, man and man, community and community, nation and nation. But the devotees of the Lord rise above such competitions. They do not compete with the materialist because they are on the path back to Godhead where life is eternal and blissful. Such transcendentalists are nonenvious and pure in heart. In the material world, everyone is envious of everyone else, and therefore there is competition. But the transcendental devotees of the Lord are not only free from material envy, but they are well-wishers to everyone, and they strive to establish a competitionless society with God in the center. The contemporary socialist's conception of a competitionless society is artificial because in the socialist state there is competition for the post of dictator. From the point of view of the Vedas or from the point of view of common human activities, sense gratification is the basis of material life. There are three paths mentioned in the Vedas. One involves fruitive activities to gain promotion to better planets. Another involves worshiping different demigods for promotion to the planets of the demigods, and another involves realizing the Absolute Truth and His impersonal feature and becoming one with Him.", + "The impersonal aspect of the Absolute Truth is not the highest. Above the impersonal feature is the Paramātmā feature, and above this there is the personal feature of the Absolute Truth or Bhagavān. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives information about the Absolute Truth in His personal feature. It is higher than impersonalist literatures and higher than the jñāna-kāṇḍa division of the Vedas. It is even higher than the karma-kāṇḍa division, and even higher than the upaṣana-kāṇḍa division because it recommends the worship of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. In the karma-kāṇḍa, there is competition to reach heavenly planets for better sense gratification, and there is similar competition in the jñāna-kāṇḍa and the upaṣana-kāṇḍa. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is superior to all of these because it aims at the Supreme Truth which is the substance or the root of all categories. From Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam one can come to know the substance as well as the categories. The substance is the Absolute Truth, the Supreme Lord, and all emanations are relative forms of energy.", + "Nothing is apart from the substance, but at the same time the energies are different from the substance. This conception is not contradictory. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam explicitly promulgates this simultaneously one and different philosophy of the Vedānta-sūtra, which begins with the \"janmādy asya\" sūtra.", + "This knowledge of the energy of the Lord being simultaneously one and different from the Lord is an answer to the mental speculators' attempt to establish the energy as the Absolute. When this knowledge is factually understood, one sees the conceptions of monism and dualism to be imperfect. Development of this transcendental consciousness grounded in the conception of simultaneously one and different leads one immediately to the stage of freedom from the threefold miseries. The threefold miseries are 1.) those miseries which arise from the mind and body, 2.) those miseries inflicted by other living beings, and 3.) those miseries arising from natural catastrophes over which one has no control. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam begins with the surrender of the devotee unto the Absolute Person. The devotee is fully aware that he is one with the Absolute and at the same time in the eternal position of servant to the Absolute. In the material conception, one falsely thinks himself the lord of all he surveys, and therefore he is always troubled by the threefold miseries of life. But as soon as one comes to know his real position as transcendental servant, he at once becomes free from all miseries. As long as the living entity is trying to master material nature, there is no possibility of his becoming servant of the Supreme. Service to the Lord is rendered in pure consciousness of one's spiritual identity; by service one is immediately freed from material encumbrances.", + "Over and above this, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is a personal commentation on the Vedānta-sūtra by Śrī Vyāsadeva. It is written in the maturity of his spiritual life through the mercy of Nārada. Śrī Vyāsadeva is the authorized incarnation of Nārāyaṇa, the Personality of Godhead. Therefore, there is no question as to his authority. He is the author of all other Vedic literatures, yet he recommends the study of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam above all others. In other Purāṇas there are different methods set forth by which one can worship the demigods. But in the Bhāgavatam only the Supreme Lord is mentioned. The Supreme Lord is the total body, and the demigods are the different parts of that body. Consequently, by worshiping the Supreme Lord, one does not need to worship the demigods. The Supreme Lord becomes fixed in the heart of the devotee immediately. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu has recommended the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam as the spotless Purāṇa and distinguishes it from all other Purāṇas.", + "The proper method for receiving this transcendental message is to hear it submissively. A challenging attitude cannot help one realize this transcendental message. One particular word is used herein for proper guidance. This word is śuśrūṣu. One must be anxious to hear this transcendental message. The desire to sincerely hear is the first qualification.", + "Less fortunate persons are not at all interested in hearing this Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. The process is simple, but the application is difficult. Unfortunate people find enough time to hear idle, social, political conversations, but when invited to attend a meeting of devotees to hear Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam they suddenly become reluctant. Sometimes professional readers of the Bhāgavatam immediately plunge into the confidential topics of the pastime of the Supreme Lord, which they seemingly interpret as sex literature. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is meant to be heard from the beginning. Those who are fit to assimilate this work are mentioned in this śloka: \"One becomes qualified to hear Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam after many pious deeds.\" The intelligent person by thoughtful discretion can be assured by the great sage Vyāsadeva that he can realize the Supreme Personality directly by hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Without undergoing the different stages of realization set forth in the Vedas, one can be lifted immediately to the position of paramahaṁsa simply by agreeing to receive this message." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..19cbc16d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,134 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 1.1.3", + "devanagari": "निगमकल्पतरोर्गलितं फलं शुकमुखाद् अमृतद्रवसंयुतम्\nपिबत भागवतं रसम् आलयम्मुहुर् अहो रसिका भुवि भावुकाः", + "transliteration": "nigama-kalpa-taror galitaṁ phalaṁ\nśuka-mukhād amṛta-drava-saṁyutam\npibata bhāgavataṁ rasam ālayam\nmuhur aho rasikā bhuvi bhāvukāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "nigama", + "meanings": [ + "the Vedic literatures" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalpa-taroḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the desire-tree" + ] + }, + { + "word": "galitam", + "meanings": [ + "fully matured" + ] + }, + { + "word": "phalam", + "meanings": [ + "fruit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuka", + "meanings": [ + "Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the original speaker of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukhāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the lips of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amṛta", + "meanings": [ + "nectar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "drava", + "meanings": [ + "semi-solid and soft and therefore easily swallowable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁyutam", + "meanings": [ + "perfect in all respects" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pibata", + "meanings": [ + "do relish it" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavatam", + "meanings": [ + "the book dealing in the science of the eternal relation with the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rasam", + "meanings": [ + "juice (that which is relishable)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ālayam", + "meanings": [ + "until liberation, or even in a liberated condition" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aho", + "meanings": [ + "O" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rasikāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "those who are full in the knowledge of mellows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvi", + "meanings": [ + "on the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāvukāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "expert and thoughtful." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Know, O thoughtful men, that Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the mature fruit of the tree of Vedic literatures.

With great respect and attention, one should receive the message and lessons imparted by the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.", + "The Vedas are compared to the desire tree because they contain all things knowable by man. They deal with mundane necessities as well as spiritual realization. The Vedas contain regulated principles of knowledge covering social, political, religious, economic, military, medicinal, chemical, physical and metaphysical subject matter and all that may be necessary to keep the body and soul together. Above and beyond all this are specific directions for spiritual realization. Regulated knowledge involves a gradual raising of the living entity to the spiritual platform, and the highest spiritual realization is to know that the Personality of Godhead is the reservoir of all spiritual tastes or rasas.", + "Every living entity, beginning from Brahmā, the first-born living being within the material world, down to the insignificant ant, desires to relish some sort of taste derived from sense perceptions. These sensual pleasures are technically called rasas. Such rasas are of different varieties. In the revealed scriptures the following twelve varieties of rasas are enumerated: 1) raudra (anger) 2) adbhuta (wonder) 3) śṛṅgāra (conjugal love) 4) hāsya (comedy) 5) vīra (chivalry) 6) dayā (mercy) 7) dāsya (servitorship) 8) sakhya (fraternity) 9) bhayānaka (horror) 10) vībhatsa (shock) 11) śānta (neutrality) 12) vātsalya (parenthood).", + "The sum total of all these rasas is called affection or love. Primarily, such signs of love are manifested in adoration, service, friendship, eternal affection, and conjugal love. And when these five are absent, love is present indirectly in anger, wonder, comedy, chivalry, fear, shock and so on. For example, when a man is in love with a woman, the rasa is called conjugal love. But when such love affairs are disturbed there may be wonder, anger, shock, or even horror. Sometimes love affairs between two persons culminate in ghastly murder scenes. Such rasas are displayed between man and man and between animal and animal. There is no possibility of an exchange of rasa between a man and an animal or between a man and any other species of living beings within the material world. The rasas are exchanged between members of the same species. But as far as the spirit souls are concerned, they are one qualitatively with the Supreme Lord. Therefore, the rasas were originally exchanged between the spiritual living being and the spiritual whole, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The spiritual exchange or rasa is fully exhibited in spiritual existence between living beings and the Supreme Lord.", + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is therefore described in the Śruti mantras, Vedic hymns, as \"the fountainhead of all rasas.\" When one associates with the Supreme Lord and exchanges one's constitutional rasa with the Lord, then the living being is actually happy.", + "These Śruti mantras indicate that every living being has its constitutional position which is endowed with a particular type of rasa which is to be exchanged with the Personality of Godhead. In the liberated condition only, this primary rasa is experienced in full. In the material existence, the rasa is experienced in the perverted form, which is temporary. And thus the rasas of the material world are exhibited in the material form of raudra (anger) and so on.", + "Therefore, one who attains full knowledge of these different rasas, which are the basic principles of activities, can understand the false representations of the original rasas which are reflected in the material world. The learned scholar seeks to relish the real rasa in the spiritual form. In the beginning he desires to become one with the Supreme. Thus, intelligent transcendentalists cannot go beyond this conception of becoming one with the spirit whole, without knowing of the different rasas.", + "In this śloka, it is definitely stated that spiritual rasa, which is relished even in the liberated stage, can be experienced in the literature of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam due to its being the ripened fruit of all Vedic knowledge. By submissively hearing this transcendental literature, one can attain the full pleasure of his heart's desire. But, one must be very careful to hear the message from the right source. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is exactly received from the right source. It was brought by Nārada Muni from the spiritual world and given to his disciple Śrī Vyāsadeva. The latter in turn delivered the message to his son Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī delivered the message to Mahārāja Parīkṣit just seven days before the King's death. Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī was a liberated soul from his very birth. He was liberated even in the womb of his mother, and he did not undergo any sort of spiritual training after his birth. At birth no one is qualified, neither in the mundane nor the spiritual sense. But Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī, due to his being a perfectly liberated soul, did not have to undergo an evolutionary process for spiritual realization. Yet despite his being a completely liberated person situated in the transcendental position above the three material modes, he was attracted to this transcendental rasa of the Supreme Personality of Godhead who is adored by liberated souls who sing Vedic hymns. The Supreme Lord's pastimes are more attractive to liberated souls than to mundane people. He is of necessity not impersonal because it is only possible to carry on transcendental rasa with a person.", + "In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam the transcendental pastimes of the Lord are narrated, and the narration is systematically depicted by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Thus the subject matter is appealing to all classes of persons, including those who seek liberation and those who seek to become one with the supreme whole.", + "In Sanskrit the parrot is also known as śuka. When a ripened fruit is cut by the red beaks of such birds, its sweet flavor is enhanced. The Vedic fruit which is mature and ripe in knowledge is spoken through the lips of Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who is compared to the parrot not for his ability to recite the Bhāgavatam exactly as he heard it from his learned father, but for his ability to present the work in a manner that would appeal to all classes of men.", + "The subject matter is so presented through the lips of Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī that any sincere listener that hears submissively can at once relish transcendental tastes which are distinct from the perverted tastes of the material world. The ripened fruit is not dropped all of a sudden from the highest planet of Kṛṣṇaloka. Rather, it has come down carefully through the chain of disciplic succession without change or disturbance. Foolish people who are not in the transcendental disciplic succession commit great blunders by trying to understand the highest transcendental rasa known as the rāsa dance without following in the footsteps of Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who presents this fruit very carefully by stages of transcendental realization. One should be intelligent to know the position of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam by considering personalities like Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who deals with the subject so carefully. This process of disciplic succession of the Bhāgavata school suggests that in the future also Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam has to be understood from a person who is factually a representative of Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī. A professional man who makes a business out of reciting the Bhāgavatam illegally is certainly not a representative of Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Such a man's business is only to earn his livelihood. Therefore one should refrain from hearing the lectures of such professional men. Such men usually go to the most confidential part of the literature without undergoing the gradual process of understanding this grave subject. They usually plunge into the subject matter of the rāsa dance, which is misunderstood by the foolish class of men. Some of them take this to be immoral, while others try to cover it up by their own stupid interpretations. They have no desire to follow in the footsteps of Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī.", + "One should conclude, therefore, that the serious student of the rasa should receive the message of Bhāgavatam in the chain of disciplic succession from Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who describes the Bhāgavatam from its very beginning and not whimsically to satisfy the mundaner who has very little knowledge in transcendental science. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is so carefully presented that a sincere and serious person can at once enjoy the ripened fruit of Vedic knowledge simply by drinking the nectarean juice through the mouth of Śukadeva Gosvāmī or his bona fide representative." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..914adcaf --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,80 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 1.1.4", + "devanagari": "नैमिषे ऽनिमिषक्षेत्रे ऋषयः शौनकादयः\nसत्रं स्वर्गायलोकाय सहस्रसमम् आसत", + "transliteration": "naimiṣe 'nimiṣakṣetre\nṛṣayaḥ śaunakādayaḥ\nsatraṁ svargāyalokāya\nsahasra-samam āsata", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "naimiṣe", + "meanings": [ + "in the forest known as Naimiṣāraṇya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "animiṣa-kṣetre", + "meanings": [ + "the spot which is especially a favorite of Viṣṇu (who does not close His eyelids)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaunaka-ādayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "headed by the sage Śaunaka" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satram", + "meanings": [ + "sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svargāya", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord who is glorified, in heaven" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokāya", + "meanings": [ + "and for the devotees who are always in touch with the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sahasra", + "meanings": [ + "one thousand" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samam", + "meanings": [ + "years" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsata", + "meanings": [ + "performed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Once, in a holy place in the forest of Naimiṣāraṇya, great sages headed by the sage Śaunaka assembled to perform a great thousand-year sacrifice for the satisfaction of the Lord and His devotees.", + "purport": [ + "The prelude of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was spoken in the previous three ślokas.

The devotees are always attached to service of the Lord, whereas fallen souls are attached to the pleasures of material existence. In Bhagavad-gītā, it is said that anything performed in the material world for any reason other than for the pleasure of Lord Viṣṇu causes further bondage for the performer. It is enjoined therefore that all acts must be performed sacrificially for the satisfaction of Viṣṇu and His devotees. This will bring everyone peace and prosperity.", + "The great sages are always anxious to do good to the people in general, and as such the sages headed by Śaunaka and others assembled at this holy place of Naimiṣāraṇya with a program of performing a great and continuous chain of sacrificial ceremonies.

However, the sages know it well, and therefore for the good men they are always anxious to perform acts which may bring about peace in the world. They are sincere friends to all living entities, and at the risk of great personal inconvenience they are always engaged in the service of the Lord for the good of all people. Lord Viṣṇu is just like a great tree, and all others, including the demigods, men, Siddhas, Cāraṇas, Vidyādharas and other living entities, are like branches, twigs and leaves of that tree. By pouring water on the root of the tree, all the parts of the tree are automatically nourished. Only those branches and leaves which are detached cannot be so satisfied.

One is quickly satiated by mundane activities, but no one is satiated by transcendental or devotional activities. Uttama-śloka indicates that literature which is not meant for nescience. Mundane literature is in the mode of darkness or ignorance, whereas transcendental literature is quite different. Transcendental literature is above the mode of darkness, and its light becomes more luminous with progressive reading and realization of the transcendental subject matter. The so-called liberated persons are never satisfied by the repetition of the words ahaṁ brahmāsmi. Such artificial realization of Brahman becomes hackneyed, and so to relish real pleasure they turn to the narrations of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

The theory that a man becomes God by dint of penance and austerities is very much rampant nowadays, especially in India. Since Lord Rāma, Lord Kṛṣṇa, and Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu were detected by the sages and saints to be the Personality of Godhead as indicated in revealed scriptures, many unscrupulous men have created their own incarnations. This process of concocting an incarnation of God has become an ordinary business, especially in Bengal. Any popular personality with a few traits of mystic powers will display some feat of jugglery and easily become an incarnation of Godhead by popular vote. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa was not that type of incarnation. He was actually the Personality of Godhead from the very beginning of His appearance. He appeared before His so-called mother as four-armed Viṣṇu. Then at the request of the mother, He became like a human child and at once left her for another devotee at Gokula where He was accepted as the son of Nanda Mahārāja and Yaśodā Mātā. Similarly, Śrī Baladeva, the counter part of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, was also considered a human child born of another wife of Śrī Vasudeva. In Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord says that His birth and deeds are transcendental and that anyone who is so fortunate as to know the transcendental nature of His birth and deeds will at once become liberated and eligible to return to the kingdom of God. So knowledge of the transcendental nature of the birth and deeds of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is sufficient for liberation. In the Bhāgavatam, the transcendental nature of the Lord is described in nine cantos, and in the Tenth Canto His specific pastimes are taken up. All this becomes known as one's reading of this literature progresses. It is important to note here, however, that the Lord exhibited His divinity even from the lap of His mother, that His deeds are all superhuman (He lifted Govardhana Hill at the age of six), and that all these acts definitely prove Him to be actually the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Yet, due to His mystic covering, He was always accepted as an ordinary human child by His so-called father and mother and other relatives. Whenever some herculean task was performed by Him, the father and mother took it otherwise. And they remained satisfied with unflinching filial love for their son. As such, the sages of Naimiṣāraṇya describe Him as apparently resembling a human being, but actually He is the Supreme Almighty Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2bdb7b0e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/01/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 1.1.21", + "devanagari": "कलिम् आगतम् आज्ञाय क्षेत्रे ऽस्मिन्वैष्णवे वयम्\nआसीना दीर्घसत्रेण कथायां सक्षणा हरेः", + "transliteration": "kalim āgatam ājñāya\nkṣetre 'smin vaiṣṇave vayam\nāsīnā dīrgha-satreṇa\nkathāyāṁ sakṣaṇā hareḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kalim", + "meanings": [ + "the age of Kali (iron age of quarrel)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āgatam", + "meanings": [ + "having arrived" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ājñāya", + "meanings": [ + "knowing this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣetre", + "meanings": [ + "in this tract of land" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asmin", + "meanings": [ + "in this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiṣṇave", + "meanings": [ + "specially meant for the devotee of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayam", + "meanings": [ + "we" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsīnā", + "meanings": [ + "seated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dīrgha", + "meanings": [ + "prolonged" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satreṇa", + "meanings": [ + "for performance of sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kathāyām", + "meanings": [ + "in the words of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakṣaṇā", + "meanings": [ + "with time at our disposal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Knowing well that the Age of Kali has already begun, we are assembled here in this holy place to hear at great length the transcendental message of God and in this way perform sacrifice.", + "purport": [ + "This age of Kali is not at all suitable for self-realization as was Satya-yuga, the golden age, or Tretā or Dvāpara yugas, the silver and copper ages.

And in the Dvāpara-yuga when the duration of life was for one thousand years, self-realization was attained by worshipping the Lord. But in the Kali-yuga, the maximum duration of life being one hundred years only and that combined with various difficulties, the process of self-realization is recommended by hearing and chanting of the holy name, fame, and pastimes of the Lord. The sages of Naimiṣāraṇya began this process for the devotees of the Lord. So they prepared themselves to hear the pastimes of the Lord over a period of one thousand years. By the example of these sages one should learn that regular hearing and recitation of the Bhāgavatam is the only way for self-realization. Other attempts are simply a waste of time, for they do not give any tangible results.

Unfortunately they are so foolish that they do not want to escape. Therefore they are compared to the camel who relishes thorny twigs because he likes the taste of the twigs mixed with blood. He does not realize that it is his own blood and that his tongue is being cut by the thorns. Similarly, to the materialist his own blood is as sweet as honey, and although he is always harassed by his own material creations, he does not wish to escape. Such materialists are called karmīs. Out of hundreds of thousands of karmīs, only a few may feel tired of material engagement and desire to get out of the labyrinth. Such intelligent persons are called jñānīs. The Vedānta-sūtra is directed to such jñānīs. But Śrīla Vyāsadeva, being the incarnation of the Supreme Lord, could foresee the misuse of the Vedānta-sūtra by unscrupulous men, and, therefore, he personally supplemented the Vedānta-sūtra with the Bhāgavata Purāṇa. It is clearly said that this Bhāgavatam is the original commentary on the Brahma-sūtras.

The sages asked him to summarize the whole range of revealed scriptures and present the most essential part so that fallen people or the people in general might easily take it up. The Vedas prescribe two different types of occupation for the human being. One is called the pravṛtti-mārga, or the path of sense enjoyment, and the other is called the nivṛtti-mārga or the path of renunciation. The path of enjoyment is inferior, but the path of sacrifice for the supreme cause is superior. The material existence of the living being is a diseased condition of actual life. Actual life is spiritual existence, or brahma-bhūta existence where life is eternal, blissful and full of knowledge. Material existence is temporary, illusory and full of miseries. There is no happiness at all. There is just the futile attempt to get rid of the miseries, and temporary cessation of misery is falsely called happiness. Therefore, the path of progressive material enjoyment, which is temporary, miserable and illusory, is inferior. But devotional service of the Supreme Lord, which leads one to eternal, blissful and all-cognizant life, is called the superior quality of occupation. This is sometimes polluted when mixed with the inferior quality. For example, adoption of devotional service for material gain is certainly an obstruction to the progressive path of renunciation. Renunciation or abnegation for ultimate good is certainly a better occupation than enjoyment in the diseased condition of life. Such enjoyment only aggravates the symptoms of disease and increases its duration. Therefore devotional service of the Lord must be pure in quality, i.e., without the least desire for material enjoyment. One should, therefore, accept the superior quality of occupation in the form of devotional service of the Lord without any tinge of unnecessary desire, fruitive action and philosophical speculation. This alone can lead one to perpetual solace in His service.", + "We have purposely denoted dharma as occupation because the root meaning of the word dharma is \"that which sustains one's existence.\" A living being's sustenance of existence is to coordinate his activities with his eternal relation with the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is the central pivot of living beings, and He is the all-attractive living entity or eternal form amongst all other living beings or eternal forms. Each and every living being has his eternal form in the spiritual existence, and Kṛṣṇa is the eternal attraction for all of them. Kṛṣṇa is the complete whole, and everything else is His part and parcel. The relation is one of the servant and the served, and it is transcendental and is completely distinguished from our experience in material existence. This relation of servant and the served is the most congenial form of intimacy. One can realize it as devotional service progresses. Everyone should engage himself in that transcendental loving service of the Lord, even in the present conditional state of material existence. That will gradually give one the clue to actual life and please him to complete satisfaction." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/02/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/02/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..66a318a0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/02/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,82 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 1.2.7", + "devanagari": "वासुदेवे भगवति भक्तियोगः प्रयोजितः\nजनयत्य् आशु वैराग्यं ज्ञानं च यद् अहैतुकम्", + "transliteration": "vāsudeve bhagavati\nbhakti-yogaḥ prayojitaḥ\njanayaty āśu vairāgyaṁ\njñānaṁ ca yad ahaitukam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vāsudeve", + "meanings": [ + "unto Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavati", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhakti-yogaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "contact of devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prayojitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being applied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janayati", + "meanings": [ + "does produce" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśu", + "meanings": [ + "very soon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vairāgyam", + "meanings": [ + "detachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jñānam", + "meanings": [ + "knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "that which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ahaitukam", + "meanings": [ + "causeless." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By rendering devotional service unto the Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, one immediately acquires causeless knowledge and detachment from the world.", + "purport": [ + "Those who consider devotional service of the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa to be something like material emotional affairs may argue that in the revealed scriptures, sacrifice, charity, austerity, knowledge, mystic powers and similar other processes of transcendental realization are recommended. According to them, bhakti, or devotional service of the Lord, is meant for those who cannot perform the high-grade activities. Generally it is said that the bhakti cult is meant for the śūdras, vaiśyas and the less intelligent woman class. But that is not the actual fact. The bhakti cult is the topmost of all transcendental activities, and therefore it is simultaneously sublime and easy. It is sublime for the pure devotees who are serious about getting in contact with the Supreme Lord, and it is easy for the neophytes who are just on the threshold of the house of bhakti. It is a great science to achieve the contact of the Supreme Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and it is open for all living beings, including the śūdras, vaiśyas, women or even those lower than the śūdras who are called low-born—so what to speak of the high-class men like the qualified brāhmaṇas and the great self-realized kings. The other high-grade activities designated as sacrifice, charity, austerity, etc., are all corollary factors following the pure and scientific bhakti cult.", + "The principles of knowledge and detachment are two important factors on the path of transcendental realization. The whole spiritual process leads to perfect knowledge of everything material and spiritual, and the results of such perfect knowledge are that one becomes detached from material affection and becomes attached to spiritual activities. Becoming detached from material things does not mean becoming inert altogether, as men with a poor fund of knowledge think. Naiṣkarma means not undertaking such activities that will produce good or bad effects. Negation does not mean negation of the positive. Negation of the nonessentials does not mean negation of the essential. Similarly, detachment from material forms does not mean nullifying the positive form. The bhakti cult is meant for realization of the positive form. When the positive form is realized, the negative forms are automatically eliminated. Therefore, with the development of the bhakti cult, with the application of the positive service to the positive form, one naturally becomes detached from inferior things, and he becomes attached to superior things. Similarly, the bhakti cult, being the supermost occupation of the living being, leads him out of material sense enjoyment. That is the sign of a pure devotee. He is neither a fool, nor is he engaged in the inferior energies, nor does he have material values. This is not possible by dry reasoning. It actually happens by the grace of the Almighty. In conclusion, one who is a pure devotee has all other good qualities, namely knowledge, detachment, etc., but one who has only knowledge or detachment is not necessarily well acquainted with the principles of the bhakti cult.

Extended selfishness is manifested in human society and centers around the family, society, community, nation and world with a view to gross bodily comfort. Above these gross materialists are the mental speculators who hover aloft in the mental spheres, and their occupational duties involve making poetry, philosophy or propagating some ism with the same aim of selfishness limited to the body and the mind.

Without knowing the need of the dormant soul, one cannot be happy simply with emolument of the body and mind. The body and the mind are but superfluous outer coverings of the spirit soul.

There is a dormant affection for God within everyone; spiritual existence is manifested through the gross body and mind in the form of perverted affection for gross and subtle matter. Therefore we have to engage ourselves in occupational engagements that will evoke our divine consciousness. This is possible only by hearing and chanting the divine activities of the Supreme Lord, and any occupational activity which does not help one to achieve attachment for hearing and chanting the transcendental message of Godhead is said herein to be simply a waste of time. This is because other occupational duties (whatever ism they may belong to) cannot give liberation to the soul. Even the activities of the Salvationists are considered to be useless because of their failure to pick up the fountain-head of all liberties. The gross materialist can practically see that his material gain is limited only to time and space, either in this world or the other. Even if he goes up to the Svargaloka, he will find no permanent abode for his hankering soul.

Brahman is His transcendental bodily effulgence, and Paramātmā is His partial representation. As such, Brahman or Paramātmā realization of the Absolute Truth is but a partial realization. There are four different types of living beings, the karmīs, the jñānīs, the yogīs and the devotees. The karmīs are materialistic, whereas the other three are transcendental. The first-class transcendentalists are the devotees who have realized the Supreme Person. The second-class transcendentalists are those who have partially realized the plenary portion of the absolute person. And the third-class transcendentalists are those who have barely realized the spiritual focus of the absolute person. As stated in the Bhagavad-gītā and other Vedic literatures, the Supreme Person is realized by devotional service, which is backed by full knowledge and detachment from the material association. We have already discussed the point that devotional service is followed by knowledge and detachment from material association. As Brahman and Paramātmā realization are imperfect realizations of the Absolute Truth, so the means of realizing Brahman and Paramātmā, i.e., the paths of jñāna and yoga, are also imperfect means of realizing the Absolute Truth. Devotional service, which is based on the foreground of full knowledge combined with detachment from material association fixed up on the aural reception of the Vedānta-śruti, is the only perfect method of realizing the Absolute Truth by the seriously inquisitive student. Devotional service is not, therefore, meant for the less intelligent class of transcendentalist. There are three classes of devotees, namely first, second, and third class. The third-class devotees, or the neophytes, who have no knowledge nor are detached from the material association, but who are simply attracted by the preliminary processes of worshiping the Deity in the temple, are called material devotees. Material devotees are more attached to material benefit than transcendental profit. Therefore, one has to make definite progress from the position of material devotional service to the second-class devotional position. In the second-class position, the devotee can see four principles in the devotional line, namely the Personality of Godhead, His devotees, the ignorant and the envious. One has to raise himself at least to the stage of a second-class devotee and thus become eligible to know the Absolute Truth.", + "A third-class devotee, therefore, has to receive the instructions of devotional service from the authoritative sources of Bhāgavatam. The number one Bhāgavatam is the established personality of devotee, and the other Bhāgavatam is the message of Godhead. The third-class devotee has, therefore, to go to the personality of devotee in order to learn the instructions of devotional service. Such a personality of devotee is not a professional man who earns his livelihood by the business of Bhāgavatam. Such a devotee must be a representative of Śukadeva Gosvāmī, like Sūta Gosvāmī, and must preach the cult of devotional service for the all-around benefit of all people. A neophyte devotee has very little taste for hearing from the authorities. Such a neophyte devotee makes a show of hearing from the professional man to satisfy his senses. This sort of hearing and chanting has spoiled the whole thing, so one should be very careful about the faulty process. The holy messages of Godhead, as inculcated in the Bhagavad-gītā or in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, are undoubtedly transcendental subjects, but even though they are so, such transcendental matters are not to be received from the professional man who spoils them like the serpent spoils the milk simply by the touch of his tongue.", + "A sincere devotee must, therefore, be prepared to hear the Vedic literature like the Upaniṣads, Vedānta and other literatures left by the previous authorities or Gosvāmīs, for the benefit of his progress. Without hearing such literatures, one cannot make actual progress. And without hearing and following the instructions, the show of devotional service becomes worthless and therefore a sort of disturbance in the path of devotional service. Unless, therefore, devotional service is established on the principles of śruti, smṛti, purāṇa or pañcarātra authorities, the make-show of devotional service should at once be rejected. An unauthorized devotee should never be recognized as a pure devotee. By assimilation of such messages from the Vedic literatures, one can see the all-pervading localized aspect of the Personality of Godhead within his own self constantly. This is called samādhi." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/02/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/02/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3e2dfe0d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/02/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 1.2.13", + "devanagari": "अतः पुम्भिर्द्विजश्रेष्ठा वर्णाश्रमविभागशः\nस्वनुष्ठितस्य धर्मस्य संसिद्धिर्हरितोषणम्", + "transliteration": "ataḥ pumbhir dvija-śreṣṭhā\nvarṇāśrama-vibhāgaśaḥ\nsvanuṣṭhitasya dharmasya\nsaṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "so" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pumbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the human being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvija-śreṣṭhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "O best among the twice-born" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṇāśrama", + "meanings": [ + "institution of four castes and orders of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhāgaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the division of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svanuṣṭhitasya", + "meanings": [ + "of one's own prescribed duties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharmasya", + "meanings": [ + "occupational" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsiddhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "highest perfection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hari", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "toṣaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "pleasing." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O best among the twiceborn, it is therefore concluded that the highest perfection one can achieve, by discharging his prescribed duties [dharma] according to caste divisions and order of life, is to please the Lord Hari.", + "purport": [ + "Human society all over the world is divided into four castes and four orders of life.

The maidservant was engaged in the menial service of the sages, and thus he also came into contact with them. And simply by associating with them and accepting the remnants of foodstuff left by the sages, the son of the maidservant got the chance to become the great devotee and personality, Śrīla Nāradadeva.

The more progress is made in devotional service under the guidance of the Bhāgavatas, the more one becomes fixed in the transcendental loving service of the Lord.

And out of such many thousands of persons who have thus attained success in human life, one may know scientifically about the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa.

No ordinary man or even one who has attained success in human life, can know scientifically or perfectly the Personality of Godhead. Perfection of human life is attained when one can understand that he is not the product of matter but is in fact spirit. And as soon as one understands that he has nothing to do with matter, he at once ceases his material hankerings and becomes enlivened as a spiritual being. This attainment of success is possible when one is above the modes of passion and ignorance, or in other words, when one is actually a brāhmaṇa by qualification. Brāhmaṇa is the symbol of sattva-guṇa, or the mode of goodness. And others, who are not in the mode of goodness, are either kṣatriya, vaiśya, śūdra or less than the śūdras. The brahminical stage is the highest stage of human life because of its good qualities. So one cannot be a devotee unless one at least qualifies as a brāhmaṇa. The devotee is already a brāhmaṇa by action. But that is not the end of it. As referred to above, such a brāhmaṇa has to become a Vaiṣṇava in fact to be actually in the transcendental stage. A pure Vaiṣṇava is a liberated soul and is transcendental to the position of a brāhmaṇa even. In the material stage even a brāhmaṇa is also a conditioned soul because in the brahminical stage the conception of Brahman or transcendence is realized, but in that stage scientific knowledge of the Supreme Lord is lacking. One has to surpass the brahminical stage and reach the Vāsudeva stage to understand the Personality of Godhead Kṛṣṇa. The science of the Personality of Godhead is the subject matter for study by the postgraduate students in the spiritual line. Foolish men, or men with a poor fund of knowledge, do not understand the Supreme Lord, and they interpret Kṛṣṇa according to their respective whims. The fact is, however, that one cannot understand the science of the Personality of Godhead unless one is freed from the contamination of the material modes, even up to the stage of a brāhmaṇa.

He comes to know everything of the absolute and the relative truths. The devotee cannot remain in darkness, and because a devotee is enlightened by the Personality of Godhead, his knowledge is certainly perfect. This is not the case for those who speculate on the Absolute Truth by dint of their own limited power of approach. Such knowledge is called paramparā, or deductive knowledge coming down from the authority to the submissive aural receiver bona fide by service and surrender. One cannot challenge the authority of the Supreme and know Him also at the same time. He reserves the right of not being exposed to such a challenging spirit of an insignificant spark of the whole subjected to the control of illusory energy.

From Baladeva is Saṅkarṣaṇa, from Saṅkarṣaṇa is Nārāyaṇa, from Nārāyaṇa there is the second Saṅkarṣaṇa, and from this Saṅkarṣaṇa the Viṣṇu puruṣa-avatāras. The Viṣṇu or the Deity of the quality of goodness in the material world is the puruṣa-avatāra known as Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu or Paramātmā. Brahmā is the deity of rajas (passion), and Śiva of ignorance. They are the three departmental heads of the three qualities of this material world. Creation is made possible by the goodness of Viṣṇu, and when it is required to be destroyed, Lord Śiva does it by tāṇḍava-nṛtya. The materialists and the foolish human beings worship Brahmā and Śiva respectively. But the pure transcendentalists worship the form of goodness, Viṣṇu, in His various integrated forms and separated forms. The integrated forms are called Godhead, and the separated forms are called the living entities or the jīvas. Both the jīvas and Godhead have their original spiritual forms. Jīvas are sometimes subjected to the control of material energy, but the Viṣṇu forms are always controllers of energy. When Viṣṇu, the Personality of Godhead, appears in the material world, He comes to deliver the conditioned living beings who are under the material energy. Such living beings appear in the material world with intentions of being lords, and thus they become entrapped by the three modes of nature. As such, the living entities have to change the material coverings for undergoing different terms of imprisonment. The prison house of the material world is created by Brahmā under instruction of the Personality of Godhead, and at the conclusion of a kalpa the whole thing is destroyed by Śiva. But as far as maintenance of the prison house is concerned, it is done by Viṣṇu, as much as the state prison house is maintained by the state. Anyone, therefore, who wishes to get out of this prison house of material existence, which is full of miseries like repetition of birth, death, disease and old age, must please Lord Viṣṇu for such liberation.

In the Vedic literature there is the same objective: establishing one's relationship and ultimately reviving our lost loving service unto Him. That is the sum and substance of the Vedas. In the Bhagavad-gītā the same theory is confirmed by the Lord in His own words: the ultimate purpose of the Vedas is to know Him only. All the revealed scriptures are prepared by the Lord through His incarnation in the body of Śrīla Vyāsadeva just to remind the fallen souls conditioned by material nature of Śrī Kṛṣṇa the Personality of Godhead. No demigod can award freedom from material bondage. That is the verdict of all the Vedic literatures. Impersonalists who have no information of the Personality of Godhead minimize the omnipotency of the Supreme Lord and put Him on equal footing with all other living beings, and for this act such impersonalists get freedom from material bondage with great difficulty. They can surrender unto Him only after many, many births and culture of transcendental knowledge.", + "One may argue that the Vedic activities are based on sacrificial ceremonies. That is true. But all such sacrifices are also meant for realizing the truth about Vāsudeva. Another name of Vāsudeva is Yajña (sacrifice), and in the Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly stated that all sacrifices and all activities are to be conducted for the satisfaction of Yajña or Viṣṇu the Personality of Godhead. This is the case also with the yoga systems. Yoga means to get into touch with the Supreme Lord. The process, however, includes several bodily features such as āsana, dhyāna, prāṇāyāma, meditation, etc., and all of them are meant for concentrating upon the localized aspect of Vāsudeva represented as Paramātmā. Paramātmā realization is but partial realization of Vāsudeva, and if one is successful in that attempt, one realizes Vāsudeva in full. But by ill luck most of the yogīs are stranded by the powers of mysticism achieved through the bodily process. Ill-fated yogīs are given a chance in the next birth by being placed in the families of good learned brāhmaṇas or in the families of rich merchants in order to execute the unfinished task of Vāsudeva realization. If such fortunate brāhmaṇas and sons of rich men properly utilize the chance, they can easily realize Vāsudeva by good association with saintly persons. Unfortunately, such preferential persons are captivated again by material wealth and honor and practically forget the aim of life.", + "This is also so for the culture of knowledge. According to Bhagavad-gītā there are eighteen items in culturing knowledge. And by such culture of knowledge one becomes gradually prideless, devoid of vanity, nonviolent, forbearing, simple, devoted to the great spiritual master and self-controlled. By culture of knowledge one becomes unattached to hearth and home and becomes conscious of the miseries due to death, birth, old age and disease. And all culture of knowledge culminates in devotional service to the Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva. Therefore, Vāsudeva is the ultimate aim in culturing all different branches of knowledge. Culture of knowledge leading one to the transcendental plane of meeting Vāsudeva is real knowledge. Physical knowledge in its various branches is condemned in the Bhagavad-gītā as ajñāna, or the opposite of real knowledge. The ultimate aim of physical knowledge is to satisfy the senses, which means prolongation of the term of material existence and thereby continuance of the threefold miseries. So prolonging the miserable life of material existence is nescience. But the same physical knowledge leading to the way of spiritual understanding helps one to end the miserable life of physical existence and to begin the life of spiritual existence on the plane of Vāsudeva.", + "The same applies to all kinds of austerities. Tapasya means voluntary acceptance of bodily pains to achieve some higher end of life. Rāvaṇa and Hiraṇyakaśipu underwent a severe type of bodily torture to achieve the end of sense gratification. Sometimes modern politicians also undergo severe types of austerities to achieve some political end. This is not actually tapasya. One should accept voluntary bodily inconvenience for the sake of knowing Vāsudeva because that is the way of real austerities. Otherwise all forms of austerities are classified as modes of passion and ignorance. Passion and ignorance cannot end the miseries of life. Only the mode of goodness can mitigate the threefold miseries of life. Vasudeva and Devakī, the so-called father and mother of Lord Kṛṣṇa, underwent penances to get Vāsudeva as their son. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the father of all living beings (Bg. 14.4). Therefore He is the original living being of all other living beings. He is the original eternal enjoyer amongst all other enjoyers. Therefore no one can be His begetting father, as the ignorant may think. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa agreed to become the son of Vasudeva and Devakī upon being pleased with their severe austerities. Therefore if any austerities have to be done, they must be done to achieve the end of knowledge, Vāsudeva.", + "Vāsudeva is the original Personality of Godhead Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. As explained before, the original Personality of Godhead expands Himself by innumerable forms. Such expansion of forms is made possible by His various energies. His energies are also multifarious, and His internal energies are superior and external energies are inferior in quality. They are explained in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.4-6) as the parā and aparā prakṛtis. So His expansions of various forms which take place via the internal energies are superior forms, whereas the expansions which take place via the external energies are inferior forms. The living entities are also His expansions. The living entities who are expanded by His internal potency are eternally liberated persons, whereas those who are expanded by the material energies are eternally conditioned souls. Therefore, all culture of knowledge, austerities, sacrifice and activities should be aimed at changing the quality of the influence that is acting upon us. For the present, we are all being controlled by the external energy of the Lord, and just to change the quality of the influence, we must endeavor to cultivate spiritual energy. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said that those who are mahātmās, or those whose minds have been so broadened as to be engaged in the service of Lord Kṛṣṇa, are under the influence of the internal potency, and the effect is that such broad-minded living beings are constantly engaged in the service of the Lord without deviation. That should be the aim of life. And that is the verdict of all the Vedic literatures. No one should bother himself with fruitive activities or dry speculation about transcendental knowledge. Everyone should at once engage himself in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Nor should one worship different demigods who work as different hands of the Lord for creation, maintenance or destruction of the material world. There are innumerable powerful demigods who look over the external management of the material world. They are all different assisting hands of Lord Vāsudeva. Even Lord Śiva and Lord Brahmā are included within the list of demigods, but Lord Viṣṇu or Vāsudeva is always transcendentally situated. Even though He accepts the quality of goodness of the material world, He is still transcendental to all the material modes. The following example will clear that matter more explicitly.

One who knows these plenary features of the Personality of Godhead knows also Him (Godhead) properly, and thus the knower becomes freed from the material conditions of birth, death, old age and disease, as it is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā.", + "In this śloka the subject matter of Mahā-Viṣṇu is summarized. The Mahā-Viṣṇu lies down in some part of the spiritual sky by His own free will, and thus He lies on the ocean of kāraṇa from where He glances over His material nature, and the mahat-tattva is at once created. Thus electrified by the power of the Lord, the material nature creates at once innumerable universes just as in due course a tree is decorated with innumerable grown-up fruits. The seed of the tree is sown by the cultivator, and the tree or creeper in due course becomes manifested with so many fruits. Nothing can take place without a cause. The Kāraṇa Ocean is therefore called the Causal Ocean. Kāraṇa means causal. We should not foolishly accept the atheistic theory of creation. The description of the atheists is given in the Bhagavad-gītā. The atheist does not believe in the creator, but he cannot give a good theory to explain the creation. Material nature has no power to create without the power of the puruṣa, just as a prakṛti or woman cannot produce a child without the connection of a puruṣa. The puruṣa impregnates, and the prakṛti delivers. We should not expect milk from the fleshy bags on the neck of the goat, although they look like breastly nipples. Similarly, we should not expect any creative power from the material ingredients; we must believe in the power of the puruṣa, who impregnates prakṛti or nature.

When He saw that within the universe there is all darkness and space only without a resting place, He filled up half of the universe with water out of His own perspiration and laid Himself down on the same water. This water is called Garbhodaka. Then from His navel the stem of the lotus flower sprouted, and on the flower petals the birth of Brahmā, or the master engineer of the universal plan, took place. Brahmā became the engineer of the universe, and the Lord Himself took charge of the maintenance of the universe as Viṣṇu. Brahmā is generated from rajo-guṇa of prakṛti, or the mode of passion in nature, and Viṣṇu became the Lord of the mode of goodness. Viṣṇu, being transcendental to all the modes, is always aloof from the materialistic affection. This is already explained before. And from Brahmā there is Rudra (Śiva), who is in charge of the modes of ignorance or darkness. He destroys the whole creation by the will of the Lord. Therefore all three, namely Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Śiva, are incarnations of the Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. From Brahmā the other demigods like Dakṣa, Marīcyādi, Manu and many others become incarnated to generate living entities within the universe. This Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu is glorified in the Vedas in the hymns of Garbha-stuti, which begin with the description of the Lord as having thousands of heads, etc. The Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu is the Lord of the universe, and although He appears to be lying within the universe, He is always transcendental. This is also already explained. Viṣṇu, who is the plenary portion of the Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, is the Supersoul of the universal life, and He is known as the maintainer of the universe or Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. So the three features of the original Puruṣa are thus understood. And all the incarnations within the universe are emanations from this Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu.", + "In different millennia there are different incarnations, and they are innumerable, although some of them are very prominent, such as Matsyā, Kūrma, Varāha, Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Vāmana and many others. These incarnations are called līlā incarnations. Then there are qualitative incarnations such as Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva or Rudra who take charge of the different modes of material nature.", + "Lord Viṣṇu is nondifferent from the Personality of Godhead. Lord Śiva is in the marginal position between the Personality of Godhead and the living entities or jīvas. Brahmā is always a jīva-tattva. The highest pious living being or the greatest devotee of the Lord is empowered with the potency of the Lord for creation, and he is called Brahmā. His power is like the power of the sun reflected in valuable stones and jewels. When there is no such living being to take charge of the post of Brahmā, the Lord Himself becomes a Brahmā and takes charge of the post.", + "Lord Śiva is not an ordinary living being. He is the plenary portion of the Lord, but because Lord Śiva is in direct touch with material nature, he is not exactly in the same transcendental position as Lord Viṣṇu.

Within one day's duration of the life of Brahmā (which is calculated by our solar year as 4,300,000 x 1,000 years) there are fourteen Manus.

Brahmā lives for one hundred years of his age, and therefore there are 5,040 x 100 or 504,000 Manus in the duration of Brahmā's life. There are innumerable universes with one Brahmā in each of them, and all of them are created and annihilated during the breathing time of the puruṣa. Therefore one can simply imagine how many millions of Manus there are during one breath of the puruṣa.", + "The Manus who are prominent within this universe are as follows: Yajña as Svāyambhuva Manu, Vibhu as Svārociṣa Manu, Satyasena as Uttama Manu, Hari as Tāmasa Manu, Vaikuṇṭha as Raivata Manu, Ajita as Cākṣuṣā Manu, Vāmana as Vaivasvata Manu (the present age is under the Vaivasvata Manu), Sārvabhauma as Sāvarṇi Manu, Ṛṣabha as Dakṣasāvarṇi Manu, Viṣvaksena as Brahmasāvarṇi Manu, Dharmasetu as Dharmasāvarṇi Manu, Sudhāmā as Rudrasāvarṇi Manu, Yogeśvara as Devasāvarṇi Manu, and Bṛhadbhānu as Indra-sāvarṇi Manu.

The yugas are known as Satya-yuga, Tretā-yuga, Dvāpara-yuga and Kali-yuga. The incarnations of each yuga are of different color. The colors are white, red, black and yellow. In the Dvāpara-yuga, Lord Kṛṣṇa in black color appeared, and in the Kali-yuga Lord Caitanya in yellow color appeared.", + "So all the incarnations of the Lord are mentioned in the revealed scriptures. There is no scope for an imposter to become an incarnation, for he must be mentioned in the śāstras. An incarnation does not declare Himself to be an incarnation of the Lord, but great sages agree by the symptoms mentioned in the revealed scriptures. The features of the incarnation and the particular type of mission which He has to execute are mentioned in the revealed scriptures.", + "Apart from the direct incarnations, there are innumerable empowered incarnations. They are also mentioned in the revealed scriptures. Such incarnations are directly as well as indirectly empowered. When they are directly empowered they are called incarnations, but when they are indirectly empowered they are called vibhūtis. Directly empowered incarnations are the Kumāras, Nārada, Pṛthu, Śeṣa, Ananta, etc. As far as vibhūtis are concerned, they are very explicitly described in the Bhagavad-gītā in the Vibhūti-yoga chapter.

Out of these, the renounced order of life, or the order of sannyāsa, is considered the highest of all, and a sannyāsī is constitutionally the spiritual master for all the orders and divisions. In the sannyāsa order also there are four stages of upliftment toward perfection. Such stages are called the kuṭīcaka, bahūdaka, parivrājakācārya, and the paramahaṁsa. The paramahaṁsa stage of life is the highest stage of perfection. This order of life is respected by all others. Mahārāja Ṛṣabha, the son of King Nābhi and Merudevī, was an incarnation of the Lord, and He instructed His sons to follow the path of perfection by tapasya which sanctifies one's existence and enables one to attain the stage of spiritual happiness which is eternal and ever increasing. Every living being is searching after happiness, but no one knows where eternal and unlimited happiness is obtainable. Foolish men seek after material sense pleasure as a substitute for real happiness, but such foolish men forget that temporary so-called happiness derived from sense pleasures is also enjoyed by the dogs and hogs. No animal, bird or beast is bereft of this sense pleasure. In every species of life, including the human form of life, such happiness is immensely obtainable. The human form of life is, however, not meant for such cheap happiness. The human life is meant for attaining eternal and unlimited happiness by spiritual realization. This spiritual realization is obtained by tapasya or undergoing voluntarily the path of penance and abstinence from material pleasures. Those who have been trained for abstinence in material pleasures are called dhīra, or men undisturbed by the senses. These dhīras can accept the orders of sannyāsa, and they can gradually rise up to the status of the paramahaṁsa, which is adored by all members of the society.

For example, the attempt to fly to other planets by material means is a challenge to the established order. The conditions of each and every planet are different, and different classes of human beings are accomodated there for particular purposes mentioned in the codes of the Lord. But, puffed up by tiny success in material advancement, sometimes the godless materialist challenges the existence of God. Rāvaṇa was one of them, and he wanted to deport ordinary men to the planets of Indra (heaven) by material means without consideration of the necessary qualifications. He wanted a stair case to be built up directly reaching the heavenly planet so that people might not be required to undergo the routine of pious work necessary to enter that planet. He also wanted to perform other acts against the established rule of the Lord. He even challenged the authority of Śrī Rāma the Personality of Godhead and kidnapped His wife Sītā. Of course Lord Rāma came to chastise this atheist, answering the prayer and desire of the demigods. He therefore took up the challenge of Rāvaṇa, and the complete activity is the subject matter of the Rāmāyaṇa. Because Lord Rāmacandra was the Personality of Godhead, He exhibited superhuman activities which no human being, including the materially advanced Rāvaṇa, could perform. Lord Rāmacandra prepared a royal road on the Indian Ocean with stones that floated on the water.

At the time when Lord Buddha appeared, the people in general were atheistic and preferred animal flesh to anything else. On the plea of Vedic sacrifice, every place was practically turned into a slaughterhouse, and animal killing was indulged in unrestrictedly. Lord Buddha preached nonviolence, taking pity on the poor animals. He preached that he did not believe in the tenets of the Vedas and stressed the adverse psychological effects incurred by animal killing. Less intelligent men of the age of Kali, who had no faith in God, followed his principle, and for the time being they were trained in moral discipline and nonviolence, the preliminary steps for proceeding further on the path of God realization. He deluded the atheists because such atheists who followed his principles did not believe in God, but they kept their absolute faith in Lord Buddha who himself was the incarnation of God. Thus the faithless people were made to believe in God in the form of Lord Buddha. That was the mercy of Lord Buddha: He made the faithless faithful to him.", + "Killing of animals before the advent of Lord Buddha was the most prominent feature of the society. They claimed that these were Vedic sacrifices. When the Vedas are not accepted through the authoritative disciplic succession, the casual readers of the Vedas are misled by the flowery language of that system of knowledge. In the Bhagavad-gītā a comment has been made on such foolish scholars. The foolish scholars of Vedic literature who do not care to receive the transcendental message through the transcendental realized sources of disciplic succession are sure to be bewildered. To them, the ritualistic ceremonies are considered to be all in all. They have no depth of knowledge, according to the Bhagavad-gītā. The whole system of the Vedas is to lead one gradually to the path of the Supreme Lord [15.15]. The whole theme of Vedic literature is to know the Supreme Lord, the individual soul, the cosmic situation and the relations between all these items. When the relation is known, the relative function begins, and as a result of such a function the ultimate goal of life or going back to Godhead takes place in the easiest manner. Unfortunately, unauthorized scholars of the Vedas become captivated by the purificatory ceremonies only, and natural progress is checked thereby.", + "To such bewildered persons of atheistic propensity, Lord Buddha is the emblem of theism. He therefore first of all wanted to check the habit of animal killing. The animal killers are dangerous elements on the path of going back to Godhead. There are two types of animal killers. The soul is also sometimes called the \"animal\" or the living being. Therefore, both the slaughterer of animals as well as those who have lost their identity of soul are animal killers.", + "Mahārāja Parīkṣit said that only the animal killer cannot relish the transcendental message of the Supreme Lord. Therefore if people are to be educated to the path of Godhead they must be taught first and foremost to stop the process of animal killing as above mentioned. It is nonsensical to say that animal killing has nothing to do with spiritual realization. By this dangerous theory many so-called sannyāsīs have sprung up by the grace of Kali-yuga who preach animal killing under the garb of the Vedas. The subject matter has already been discussed in the conversation between Lord Caitanya and Maulana Chand Kazi Shaheb. The animal sacrifice as stated in the Vedas is different from the unrestricted animal killing in the slaughterhouse. Because the asuras or the so-called scholars of Vedic literatures put forward the evidence of animal killing in the Vedas, Lord Buddha superficially denied the authority of the Vedas. This rejection of the Vedas by Lord Buddha was adopted in order to save people from the vice of animal killing as well as to save the poor animals from the slaughtering process of their big brothers who clamor for universal brotherhood, peace, justice and equity. There is no justice when there is animal killing. Lord Buddha wanted to stop it completely, and therefore his cult of ahiṁsā was propagated not only in India but also outside the country.", + "Technically Lord Buddha's philosophy is called atheistic because there is no acceptance of the Supreme Lord and because that system of philosophy denied the authority of the Vedas. But that is an act of camouflage by the Lord. Lord Buddha is the incarnation of Godhead. As such, he is the original propounder of Vedic knowledge. He therefore cannot reject Vedic philosophy. But he rejected it outwardly because the sura-dviṣa, or the demons who are always envious of the devotees of Godhead, try to support cow killing or animal killing from the pages of the Vedas, and this is now being done by the modernized sannyāsīs. Lord Buddha had to reject the authority of the Vedas altogether. This is simply technical, and had it not been so he would not have been so accepted as the incarnation of Godhead. Neither would he have been worshiped in the transcendental songs of the poet Jayadeva, who is a Vaiṣṇava ācārya. He preached the preliminary principles of the Vedas in a manner suitable for the time being (and so also did Ācārya Śaṅkarācārya) to establish the authority of the Vedas. Therefore both Lord Buddha and Ācārya Śaṅkara paved the path of theism, and Vaiṣṇava ācāryas, specifically Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, led the people on the path towards a realization of going back to Godhead.", + "We are glad that people are taking interest in the nonviolent movement of Lord Buddha. But will they take the matter very seriously and close the animal slaughterhouses altogether? If not, there is no meaning to the ahiṁsā cult.", + "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was composed just prior to the beginning of the age of Kali (about five thousand years ago), and Lord Buddha appeared about 2,600 years ago. Therefore in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam Lord Buddha is foretold. Such is the authority of this clear scripture. There are many such prophecies, and they are being fulfilled one after another. They will indicate the positive standing of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, which is without trace of mistake, illusion, cheating and imperfection, which are the four flaws of all conditioned souls.

Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu are not, therefore, incarnations, but the original source of all other incarnations. This will be clearly explained in the next śloka. So the Lord is the inexhaustible source for innumerable incarnations which are not always mentioned. But such incarnations are distinguished by specific extraordinary feats which are impossible to be performed by any living being. That is the general test to identify an incarnation of the Lord directly and indirectly empowered. Some incarnations mentioned above are almost plenary portions. For instance, the Kumāras are empowered with transcendental knowledge. Śrī Nārada is empowered with devotional service. Mahārāja Pṛthu is an empowered incarnation with executive function. The Matsya incarnation is directly a plenary portion.

All the incarnations of the Lord, including the Lord Himself, descend on the different planets of the material world as also in different species of life to fulfill particular missions. Sometimes He comes Himself, and sometimes His different plenary portions or parts of the plenary portions or His differentiated portions directly or indirectly empowered by Him descend on this material world to execute certain specific functions. Originally the Lord is full of all opulences, all prowess, all fames, all beauties, all knowledge and all renunciations. When they are partly manifested through the plenary portions or parts of the plenary portions, it should be noted that certain manifestations of His different powers are required for those particular functions. When in the room small electric bulbs are displayed, it does not mean that the electric powerhouse is limited by the small bulbs. The same powerhouse can supply power to operate large-scale industrial dynamos with greater volts. Similarly, the incarnations of the Lord display limited powers because so much power is needed at that particular time.", + "For example, Lord Paraśurāma and Lord Nṛsiṁha displayed unusual opulence by killing the disobedient kṣatriyas twenty-one times and killing the greatly powerful atheist Hiraṇyakaśipu. Hiraṇyakaśipu was so powerful that even the demigods in other planets would tremble simply by the unfavorable raising of his eyebrow. The demigods in the higher level of material existence many, many times excel the most well-to-do human beings, in duration of life, beauty, wealth, paraphernalia, and in all other respects. Still they were afraid of Hiraṇyakaśipu. Thus we can simply imagine how powerful Hiraṇyakaśipu was in this material world. But even Hiraṇyakaśipu was cut into small pieces by the nails of Lord Nṛsiṁha. This means that anyone materially powerful cannot stand the strength of the Lord's nails. Similarly, Jāmadagnya displayed the Lord's power to kill all the disobedient kings powerfully situated in their respective states. His empowered incarnation, Nārada, and plenary incarnation, Varāha, as well as indirectly empowered Lord Buddha, created faith in the mass of people. The incarnations of Rāma and Dhanvantari displayed His fame, and Balarāma, Mohinī and Vāmana exhibited His beauty. Dattātreya, Matsya, Kumāra and Kapila exhibited His transcendental knowledge. Nara and Nārāyaṇa Ṛṣis exhibited His renunciation. So all the different incarnations of the Lord indirectly or directly manifested different features, but Lord Kṛṣṇa, the primeval Lord, exhibited the complete features of Godhead, and thus it is confirmed that He is the source of all other incarnations. And the most extraordinary feature exhibited by Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa was His internal energetic manifestation of His pastimes with the cowherd girls. His pastimes with the gopīs are all displays of transcendental existence, bliss and knowledge, although these are manifested apparently as sex love. The specific attraction of His pastimes with the gopīs should never be misunderstood. The Bhāgavatam relates these transcendental pastimes in the Tenth Canto. And in order to reach the position to understand the transcendental nature of Lord Kṛṣṇa's pastimes with the gopīs, the Bhāgavatam promotes the student gradually in nine other cantos.", + "According to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī's statement, in accordance with authoritative sources, Lord Kṛṣṇa is the source of all other incarnations. It is not that Lord Kṛṣṇa has any source of incarnation. All the symptoms of the Supreme Truth in full are present in the person of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and in the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord emphatically declares that there is no truth greater than or equal to Himself. In this stanza the word svayam is particularly mentioned to confirm that Lord Kṛṣṇa has no other source than Himself. Although in other places the incarnations are described as bhagavān, because of their specific functions, still nowhere are they declared to be the Supreme Personality. In this stanza the word svayam signifies the supremacy as the summum bonum.", + "The summum bonum Kṛṣṇa is one without a second. He Himself has expanded Himself in various parts, portions and particles as svayam-rūpa, svayam-prakāśa, tadekātmā, prabhava, vaibhava, vilāsa, avatāra, āveśa, and jīvas, all provided with innumerable energies just suitable to the respective persons and personalities. Learned scholars in transcendental subjects have carefully analyzed the summum bonum Kṛṣṇa to have sixty-four principal attributes. All the expansions or categories of the Lord possess only some percentages of these attributes. But Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the possessor of the attributes cent percent. And His personal expansions such as svayam-prakāśa, tadekātmā up to the categories of the avatāras, who are all Viṣṇu-tattva, possess up to ninety-three percent of these transcendental attributes. Lord Śiva, who is neither avatāra nor āveśa nor in between them, possesses almost eighty-four percent of the attributes. But the jīvas or the individual living beings in different statuses of life possess up to the limit of seventy-eight percent of the attributes. In the conditioned state of material existence, the living being possesses these attributes in very minute quantity, varying in terms of the pious life of the living being. The most perfect of living beings is Brahmā, the supreme administrator of one universe. He possesses seventy-eight percent of the attributes in full. All other demigods have the same attributes in less quantity, whereas human beings possess the attributes in very minute quantity. The standard of perfection for a human being is to develop the attributes up to seventy-eight percent in full. The living being can never possess attributes like Śiva, Viṣṇu or Lord Kṛṣṇa. A living being can become godly by developing the seventy-eight percent transcendental attributes in fullness, but he can never become a God like Śiva, Viṣṇu or Kṛṣṇa. He can become a Brahmā in due course. The godly living beings who are all residents of the planets in the spiritual sky are eternal associates of God in different spiritual planets called Hari-dhāma and Maheśa-dhāma. The abode of Lord Kṛṣṇa above all spiritual planets is called Kṛṣṇaloka or Goloka Vṛndāvana, and the perfected living being by developing seventy-eight percent of the above attributes in fullness can enter the planet of Kṛṣṇaloka after leaving the present material body." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/03/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/03/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..86a0d56e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/03/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 1.3.29", + "devanagari": "जन्म गुह्यं भगवतो य एतत्प्रयतो नरः\nसायं प्रातर्गृणन्भक्त्या दुःखग्रामाद्विमुच्यते", + "transliteration": "janma guhyaṁ bhagavato\nya etat prayato naraḥ\nsāyaṁ prātar gṛṇan bhaktyā\nduḥkha-grāmād vimucyate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "birth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guhyam", + "meanings": [ + "mysterious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prayataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "carefully" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "man" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sāyam", + "meanings": [ + "evening" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "morning" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛṇan", + "meanings": [ + "recites" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktyā", + "meanings": [ + "with devotion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duḥkha-grāmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from all miseries" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimucyate", + "meanings": [ + "gets relief from." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Whoever carefully recites the mysterious appearances of the Lord, with devotion in the morning and in the evening, gets relief from all miseries of life.", + "purport": [ + "In the Bhagavad-gītā, the Personality of Godhead has declared that anyone who knows the principles of the transcendental birth and activities of the Lord will go back to Godhead after being relieved from this material tabernacle.

But they do not know that different planets are not equal in all respects and that therefore some of the historical facts derived from other planets do not correspond with the experience of this planet. Considering the different situation of different planets and also time and circumstances, there is nothing wonderful in the stories of the Purāṇas, nor are they imaginary.

It is therefore accepted by all the spiritual authorities as the Mahāpurāṇa.

Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī is the topmost personality of all the self-realized souls, and he accepted this as the subject of studies from his father Vyāsadeva. Śrīla Vyāsadeva is the great authority, and the subject matter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam being so important, he delivered the message first to his great son Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī. It is compared to the cream of the milk. Vedic literature is like the milk ocean of knowledge. Cream or butter is the most palatable essence of milk, and so also is Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, for it contains all palatable, instructive and authentic versions of different activities of the Lord and His devotees. There is no gain, however, in accepting the message of Bhāgavatam from the unbelievers, atheists and professional reciters who make a trade of Bhāgavatam for the laymen. It was delivered to Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and he had nothing to do with the Bhāgavata business. He did not have to maintain family expenses by such trade. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam should therefore be received from the representative of Śukadeva, who must be in the renounced order of life without family encumbrance. Milk is undoubtedly very good and nourishing, but when it is touched by the mouth of a snake it is no longer nourishing; rather, it becomes a source of death. Similarly, those who are not strictly in the Vaiṣṇava discipline should not make a business of this Bhāgavata and become a cause of spiritual death for so many hearers. In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says that the purpose of all the Vedas is to know Him (Lord Kṛṣṇa), and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Himself in the form of recorded knowledge. Therefore, it is the cream of all the Vedas, and it contains all historical facts of all times in relation with Śrī Kṛṣṇa.

In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says that He descends by His own potency (ātma-māyā). His form, name, fame, paraphernalia, abode, etc., are not, therefore, creations of matter. He descends to reclaim the fallen souls and to reestablish codes of religion which are directly enacted by Him. Except God no one can establish the principles of religion. Either He or a suitable person empowered by Him can dictate the codes of religion. Real religion means to know God, our relation with Him, our duties in relation with Him and to know ultimately our destination after leaving this material body. The conditioned souls who are entrapped by the material energy hardly know all these principles of life. Most of them are like animals engaged in eating, sleeping, fearing and mating. They are mostly engaged in sense enjoyment under the pretention of religiosity, knowledge or salvation. They are still more blind in the present age of quarrel or Kali-yuga. In the Kali-yuga the population is just a royal edition of the animals. They have nothing to do with spiritual knowledge or godly religious life. They are so blind that they cannot see anything beyond the needs of the body. They have no information of the spirit soul beyond the jurisdiction of the subtle mind, intelligence or ego, but they are very much proud of their advancement in knowledge, science and material prosperity. They can risk their lives to become a dog or hog just after leaving the present body, for they have completely lost sight of the ultimate aim of life. The Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa appeared before us just a little prior to the beginning of Kali-yuga, and He returned to His eternal home practically at the commencement of Kali-yuga. While He was present, He exhibited everything by His different activities. He spoke the Bhagavad-gītā specifically and eradicated all pretentious principles of religiosity. And prior to His departure from this material world, He empowered Śrī Vyāsadeva through Nārada to compile the messages of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and thus both the Bhagavad-gītā and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are like torch bearers for the blind people of this age. In other words, if men in this age of Kali want to see the real light of life, they must take to these two books only, and their aim of life will be fulfilled. Bhagavad-gītā is the preliminary study of the Bhāgavatam. And Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the summum bonum of life, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa personified.

The ladies who were bathing could understand the mind of a man simply by studying his demeanor, just as by looking at a child one can understand how innocent he is. Śukadeva Gosvāmī was a young boy sixteen years old, and therefore all the parts of his body were developed. He was naked also, and so were the ladies. But because Śukadeva Gosvāmī was transcendental to sex relations, he appeared very innocent. The ladies, by their special qualifications, could sense this at once, and therefore they were not very concerned about him. But when his father passed, the ladies quickly dressed. The ladies were exactly like his children or grandchildren, yet they reacted to the presence of Vyāsadeva according to the social custom because Śrīla Vyāsadeva played the part of a householder. A householder has to distinguish between a male and female, otherwise he cannot be a householder. One should, therefore, attempt to know the distinction between spirit soul without any attachment for male and female. As long as such distinction is there, one should not try to become a sannyāsī like Śukadeva Gosvāmī. At least theoretically one must be convinced that a living entity is neither a male nor female. The outward dress is made of matter by material nature to attract the opposite sex and thus keep one entangled in material existence. A liberated soul is above this perverted distinction. He does not distinguish between one living being and another. For him they are all one and the same spirit. The perfection of this spiritual vision is the liberated stage, and Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī attained that stage.

Such asking for alms from the householder should be for the purpose of sanctifying his home. One who is in the renounced order of life should not be allured by the glamour of the householder's worldly possessions and thus become subservient to worldly men.

Persons who are in the modes of passion and ignorance are unable to understand the subject matter of the Vedas. The ultimate goal of Vedic knowledge is Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Personality of Godhead. This Personality is very rarely understood by those who are in the modes of passion and ignorance. In the Satya-yuga everyone was situated in the mode of goodness. Gradually the mode of goodness declined during the Tretā and Dvāpara-yugas, and the general mass of people became corrupt. In the present age the mode of goodness is almost nil, and so for the general mass of people, the kindhearted, powerful sage Śrīla Vyāsadeva divided the Vedas in various ways so that they may be practically followed by less intelligent persons in the modes of passion and ignorance.

It is the first book of spiritual values, as the Upaniṣads are. The Vedānta philosophy is the subject matter for study by the spiritual graduates. Only the post graduate spiritual student can enter into the spiritual or devotional service of the Lord. It is a great science, and the great professor is the Lord Himself in the form of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, and persons who are empowered by Him can initiate others in the transcendental loving service of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/04/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/04/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..01772813 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/04/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 1.4.26", + "devanagari": "एवं प्रवृत्तस्य सदा भूतानां श्रेयसि द्विजाः\nसर्वात्मकेनापि यदा नातुष्यद्द्हृदयं ततः", + "transliteration": "evaṁ pravṛttasya sadā\nbhūtānāṁ śreyasi dvijāḥ\nsarvātmakenāpi yadā\nnātuṣyadd hṛdayaṁ tataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pravṛttasya", + "meanings": [ + "one who is engaged in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadā", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the living beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śreyasi", + "meanings": [ + "in the ultimate good" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvijāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "O twice-born" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvātmakena api", + "meanings": [ + "by all means" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadā", + "meanings": [ + "when" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atuṣyat", + "meanings": [ + "become satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdayam", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "at that time." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O twice-born brāhmaṇas, still his mind was not satisfied, although he engaged himself in working for the total welfare of all people.", + "purport": [ + "Śrī Vyāsadeva was not satisfied with himself, although he prepared literatures of Vedic value for the all-around welfare of the general mass of people.

These four items are by far inferior to engagement in the devotional service of the Lord. Śrī Vyāsadeva as the authorized scholar knew very well this difference. And still instead of giving more importance to the better type of engagement, namely, the devotional service to the Lord, he had more or less improperly used his valuable time, and thus he was despondent. From this it is clearly indicated that no one can be pleased substantially without being engaged in the devotional service of the Lord.

One should progress by attaining neutrality and equality in the relative world. And passing this stage of equanimity, one is fixed up in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. This is the instruction of the Personality of Godhead in the Bhagavad-gītā. The conclusion is that in order to maintain the status quo of the brahma-bhūta stage, as also to increase the degree of transcendental realization, it is recommended by Nārada to Vyāsadeva that he (Vyāsadeva) should now eagerly and repeatedly describe the path of devotional service.

It is said that the intelligent man should pick up nectar from a stock of poison, should accept gold even from a filthy place, should accept a good and qualified wife even from an obscure family and should accept a good lesson even from a man or from a teacher who comes from the untouchables. These are some of the ethical instructions for everyone in every place without exception. But a saint is far above the level of an ordinary man, and he is always absorbed in glorifying the Supreme Lord because by broadcasting the holy name and fame of the Supreme Lord, the polluted atmosphere of the world will change, and as a result of propagating the transcendental literatures like Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, people will become sane in their transactions. While preparing this commentation on this particular stanza of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam we have a crisis before us. Our neighboring friend China has attacked the border of India with a militaristic spirit. We have practically no business in the political field, yet we see that previously there were both China and India, and they both lived peacefully for centuries without ill feeling. The reason is that they lived those days in an atmosphere of God consciousness, and every country, over the surface of the world, was God-fearing, purehearted and simple, and there was no question of political diplomacy. There is no cause of quarrel between the two countries of China and India over land which is not very suitable for habitation, and certainly there is no cause for fighting on this issue. But due to the age of quarrel, Kali, which we have discussed, there is always a chance of quarrel on slight provocation. This is due not to the issue in question, but to the polluted atmosphere of this age: systematically there is propaganda by a section of people to stop glorification of the name and fame of the Supreme Lord. Therefore, there is great need for disseminating the message of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam all over the world. It is the duty of every responsible Indian to broadcast the transcendental message of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam throughout the world to do all the supermost good as well as to bring about the desired peace in the world. Because India has failed in her duty by neglecting this responsible work, there is so much quarrel and trouble all over the world. We are confident that if the transcendental message of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is received only by the leading men of the world, certainly there will be a change of heart, and naturally the people in general will follow them. The mass of people in general are tools in the hands of the modern politicians and leaders of the people. If there is a change of heart of the leaders only, certainly there will be a radical change in the atmosphere of the world. We know that our honest attempt to present this great literature conveying transcendental messages for reviving the God consciousness of the people in general and respiritualizing the world atmosphere is fraught with many difficulties. Our presenting this matter in adequate language, especially a foreign language, will certainly fail, and there will be so many literary discrepancies despite our honest attempt to present it in the proper way. But we are sure that with all our faults in this connection the seriousness of the subject matter will be taken into consideration, and the leaders of society will still accept this due to its being an honest attempt to glorify the Almighty God. When there is fire in a house, the inmates of the house go out to get help from the neighbors who may be foreigners, and yet without knowing the language the victims of the fire express themselves, and the neighbors understand the need, even though not expressed in the same language. The same spirit of cooperation is needed to broadcast this transcendental message of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam throughout the polluted atmosphere of the world. After all, it is a technical science of spiritual values, and thus we are concerned with the techniques and not with the language. If the techniques of this great literature are understood by the people of the world, there will be success.", + "When there are too many materialistic activities by the people in general all over the world, there is no wonder that a person or a nation attacks another person or nation on slight provocation. That is the rule of this age of Kali or quarrel. The atmosphere is already polluted with corruption of all description, and everyone knows it well. There are so many unwanted literatures full of materialistic ideas of sense gratification. The people in general want to read (that is a natural instinct), but because their minds are polluted they want such literatures. Under the circumstances, transcendental literature like Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam will not only diminish the activities of the corrupt mind of the people in general, but also it will supply food for their hankering after reading some interesting literature. In the beginning they may not like it because one suffering from jaundice is reluctant to take sugar-candy, but we should know that sugar-candy is the only remedy for the jaundice. Similarly, let there be systematic propaganda for popularizing reading of the Bhagavad-gītā and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam which will act like sugar-candy for the jaundice-like condition of sense gratification. When men have a taste for this literature, the other literatures, which are catering poison to society, will then automatically cease.", + "We are sure, therefore, that everyone in the human society will welcome Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, even though it is now presented with so many faults, for it is recommended by Śrī Nārada, who has very kindly appeared in this chapter." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..feaa2dfe --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 1.5.12", + "devanagari": "नैष्कर्म्यम् अप्य् अच्युतभाववर्जितं न शोभते ज्ञानम् अलं निरंजनम्\nकुतः पुनः शश्वद् अभद्रम् ईश्वरे न चार्पितं कर्म यद् अप्य् अकारणम्", + "transliteration": "naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitaṁ\nna śobhate jñānam alaṁ nirañjanam\nkutaḥ punaḥ śaśvad abhadram īśvare\nna cārpitaṁ karma yad apy akāraṇam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "naiṣkarmyam", + "meanings": [ + "self-realization, being freed from the reactions of fruitive work" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "in spite of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acyuta", + "meanings": [ + "the infallible Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāva", + "meanings": [ + "conception" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varjitam", + "meanings": [ + "devoid of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "does not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śobhate", + "meanings": [ + "look well" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jñānam", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alam", + "meanings": [ + "by and by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirañjanam", + "meanings": [ + "free from designations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "where is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaśvat", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhadram", + "meanings": [ + "uncongenial" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvare", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arpitam", + "meanings": [ + "offered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karma", + "meanings": [ + "fruitive work" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat api", + "meanings": [ + "what is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akāraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "not fruitive." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Knowledge of self-realization, even though freed from all material affinity, does not look well if devoid of a conception of the Infallible [God].

These literatures, although worthless in the true sense of the term, are variously decorated to attract the attention of the less intelligent men. Thus the attracted living entities are more and more entangled in material bondage without hope of liberation for thousands and thousands of generations. Śrī Nārada Ṛṣi, being the best amongst the Vaiṣṇavas, is compassionate on such unfortunate victims of worthless literatures, and thus he advises Śrī Vyāsadeva to compose transcendental literature which is not only attractive but can also actually bring liberation from all kinds of bondage. Śrīla Vyāsadeva or his representatives are qualified because they are rightly trained to see things in true perspective. Śrīla Vyāsadeva and his representatives are pure in thought due to their spiritual enlightenment, fixed in their vows due to their devotional service and determined to deliver the fallen souls rotting in the material activities. The fallen souls are very eager to receive novel informations every day, and the transcendentalists like Vyāsadeva or Nārada can supply such eager people in general with unlimited news from the spiritual world.

Unfortunately none of them have brought peace and tranquility on the earth.

The Bhagavad-gītā is the spoken message of the Lord Himself recorded by Vyāsadeva, and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the transcendental narration of the activities of the same Lord Kṛṣṇa which alone can satisfy the hankering desires of the living being for eternal peace and liberation from miseries. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is, therefore, meant for all the living beings all over the universe for total liberation from all kinds of material bondage. Such transcendental narrations of the pastimes of the Lord can only be described by liberated souls like Vyāsadeva and his bona fide representatives who are completely merged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Only to such devotees do the pastimes of the Lord and their transcendental nature become automatically manifest by dint of devotional service. No one else can either know or describe the acts of the Lord, even if they speculate on the subject for many, many years. The descriptions of the Bhāgavatam are so precise and accurate that whatever has been predicted in this great literature about 5,000 years before is now exactly happening. Therefore, the vision of the author comprehends past, present and future. Such liberated persons like Vyāsadeva are not only perfect by the power of vision and wisdom, but also in aural reception, in thinking, feeling and all other sense activities. A liberated person possesses perfect senses, and with perfect senses only can one serve the sense-proprietor, Hṛṣīkeśa, Śrī Kṛṣṇa the Personality of Godhead.

The result is that people in general are puzzled how to fix up their minds in the service of the Lord; they are always disturbed to find out the real path of self-realization. Śrīla Nāradadeva is stressing this particular defect in the Vedic literatures compiled by Vyāsadeva, and thus he is trying to emphasize describing everything in relation with the Supreme Lord, and no one else. In fact, there is nothing existent except the Lord. The Lord is manifested in different expansions. He is the root of the complete tree. He is the stomach of the complete body. As such, pouring water on the root is the right process to water the tree, as much as feeding the stomach supplies energy to all the parts of the body. Śrīla Vyāsadeva should not have compiled any Purāṇas other than the Bhāgavata Purāṇa because a slight deviation from that may create havoc for self-realization. If a slight deviation can create such havoc, then what to speak of deliberate expansion of the separatist idea from the Absolute Truth Personality of Godhead. The most defective part of worshiping demigods is that it creates a definite conception of pantheism, ending disastrously in many religious sects detrimental to the progress of the principles of the Bhāgavatam, which alone can give the accurate direction for self-realization in eternal relation with the Personality of Godhead by devotional service in transcendental love.

They have no sense of the responsibility of human life. This human form of life is a chance to get out of the clutches of illusory matter. The Vedas are meant for going back to Godhead, going back home. To revolve in the cycle of transmigration in a series of lives numbering 8,400,000 is an imprisoned life for the condemned conditioned souls.

Under the circumstances, one should never be encouraged in making a plan for sense enjoyment in the name of religious functions. Such diversion of the human energy results in a misguided civilization. Śrīla Vyāsadeva is the authority in Vedic explanations in the Mahābhārata, etc., and his encouragement in sense enjoyment in some form or other is a great barrier for spiritual advancement because the people in general will not agree to renounce material activities which hold them in material bondage. At a certain stage of human civilization, such material activities in the name of religion (as sacrificing animals in the name of yajña) were too much rampant. The Lord incarnated Himself as Buddha and decried the authority of the Vedas to stop animal sacrifice in the name of religion. This was foreseen by Nārada, and therefore he condemned such literatures. The flesh-eaters still continue to perform animal sacrifice before some demigod or goddess in the name of religion because in some of the Vedic literatures such regulated sacrifice is recommended.

But men with materialistic tendencies are more attracted to politics, economics and philanthropic activities mentioned in the Mahābhārata than to the principal topic, namely the Bhagavad-gītā. This compromising spirit of Vyāsadeva is directly condemned by Nārada, who advises him to directly proclaim that the prime necessity of human life is to realize one's eternal relation with the Lord and thus surrender unto Him without delay.", + "A patient suffering from a particular type of malady is almost always inclined to accept eatables which are forbidden for him. The expert physician does not make any compromise with the patient by allowing him to take partially what he should not at all take. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is also said that a man attached to fruitive work should not be discouraged from his occupation, for gradually he may be elevated to the position of self-realization. This is sometimes applicable for those who are only dry empiric philosophers without spiritual realization. But those who are in the devotional line need not be always so advised." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..639e7a85 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 1.5.16", + "devanagari": "विचक्षणो ऽस्यार्हति वेदितुं विभोर् अनन्तपारस्य निवृत्तितः सुखम्\nप्रवर्तमानस्य गुणैर् अनात्मनस्ततो भवान्दर्शय चेष्टितं विभोः", + "transliteration": "vicakṣaṇo 'syārhati vedituṁ vibhor\nananta-pārasya nivṛttitaḥ sukham\npravarta-mānasya guṇair anātmanas\ntato bhavān darśaya ceṣṭitaṁ vibhoḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vicakṣaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very expert" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "of him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arhati", + "meanings": [ + "deserves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veditum", + "meanings": [ + "to understand" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananta-pārasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nivṛttitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "retired from" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sukham", + "meanings": [ + "material happiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pravarta-mānasya", + "meanings": [ + "those who are attached to" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the material qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "devoid of knowledge in spiritual value" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavān", + "meanings": [ + "your goodness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "darśaya", + "meanings": [ + "show the ways" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ceṣṭitam", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Lord is unlimited.

And out of many thousands of such transcendentally realized persons, only a few can understand the theological science specifically dealing with God as a person. Śrī Vyāsadeva is therefore advised by Nārada to describe the science of God directly by relating His transcendental activities. Vyāsadeva is himself a personality expert in this science, and he is unattached to material enjoyment. Therefore he is the right person to describe it, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the son of Vyāsadeva, is the right person to receive it. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the topmost theological science, and therefore it can react on the laymen as medicinal doses. Because it contains the transcendental activities of the Lord, there is no difference between the Lord and the literature. The literature is the factual literary incarnation of the Lord. So the laymen can hear the narration of the activities of the Lord. Thereby they are able to associate with the Lord and thus gradually become purified from material diseases. The expert devotees also can discover novel ways and means to convert the nondevotees in terms of particular time and circumstance. Devotional service is dynamic activity, and the expert devotees can find out competent means to inject it into the dull brains of the materialistic population. Such transcendental activities of the devotees for the service of the Lord can bring a new order of life to the foolish society of materialistic men. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and His subsequent followers exhibited expert dexterity in this connection.

So if one does so and becomes successful in the discharge of his devotional service unto the Lord, it is well and good. But it so happens sometimes that one surrenders himself unto the service of the Lord by some temporary sentiment, and in the long run, due to so many other reasons, he falls down from the path of service by undesirable association. There are so many instances of this in the histories. Bharata Mahārāja was obliged to take his birth as a stag due to his intimate attachment to a stag. He thought of this stag when he died. As such, in the next birth he became a stag, although he did not forget the incidence of his previous birth. Similarly, Citraketu also fell down due to his offenses at the feet of Śiva. But in spite of all this, the stress is given here to surrendering unto the lotus feet of the Lord, even if there is a chance of falling down. Because, even though one falls down from the prescribed duties of devotional service, he will never forget the lotus feet of the Lord. Once engaged in the devotional service of the Lord, one will continue the service in all circumstances. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said that even a small quantity of devotional service can save one from the most dangerous position. There are many instances of such examples in history. Ajāmila is one of them. Ajāmila in his early life was a devotee, but in his youth he fell down.

So there are various programs for sense enjoyment, either during this life or in the life after death. Some are trying to reach the moon or other planets by some mechanical arrangement, for they are very anxious to get into such planets without doing good work. But it is not to happen. By the law of the Supreme, different places are meant for different grades of living beings according to the work they might have performed. By good work only, as prescribed in the scriptures, one can obtain birth in a good family, opulence, good education and good bodily features. We see also that even in this life one obtains a good education or money or bodily beauty. Similarly, in our next birth we get such desirable positions only by good work. Otherwise, it would not so happen that two persons born in the same place, at the same time are seen differently placed according to previous work. But all such material positions are not permanent. The positions in the topmost Brahmaloka and in the lowest Pātāla are also changeable according to our own work. The philosophically inclined person must not be tempted by such changeable positions. He should try to get into the permanent life of bliss and knowledge where he will not be forced to come back again to the miserable material world, either in this or that planet. Miseries and mixed happiness are two features of material life, and they are obtained in Brahmaloka and in other lokas also. They are obtained in the life of the demigods and also in the life of the dogs and hogs. The miseries and mixed happiness of all living beings are only of different degree and quality, but no one is free from the miseries of birth, death, old age and disease. Similarly, everyone has his destined happiness also. No one can get more or less of these things simply by personal endeavors. Even if they are obtained, they can be lost again. One should not, therefore, waste time with these flimsy things, but one should only endeavor to go back to Godhead.

An orphan is really poor because he has no one to take care of him, but a beloved son of a rich man, although he appears to be on the same level as the orphan, is always under the vigilance of his capable father. A devotee of the Lord, due to wrong association, sometimes imitates the fruitive workers. The fruitive workers want to lord it over the material world. Similarly, a neophyte devotee foolishly thinks of accumulating some material power in exchange for devotional service. Such foolish devotees are sometimes put into difficulty by the Lord Himself.

The impersonal cosmic situation is also Mukunda because it is the emanation of the energy of Mukunda. For example, a tree is a complete unit, whereas the leaves and the branches of the tree are emanated parts and parcels of the tree. The leaves and branches of the tree are also the tree, but the tree itself is neither the leaves nor the branches. The Vedic version that the whole cosmic creation is nothing but Brahman means that since everything is emanating from the Supreme Brahman, nothing is apart from Him. Similarly, the part and parcel hands and legs are called the body, but the body as the whole unit is neither the hands nor the legs. The Lord is the transcendental form of eternity, cognition and beauty. And thus the creation of the energy of the Lord appears to be partially eternal, full of knowledge and beautiful also. The captivated conditioned souls under the influence of the external energy māyā are therefore entrapped in the network of the material nature. They accept this as all in all, for they have no information of the Lord who is the primeval cause. Nor have they information that the parts and parcels of the body, being detached from the whole body, are no longer the same hand or leg as when attached to the body. Similarly, a godless civilization detached from the transcendental loving service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is just like a detached hand or leg. Such parts and parcels may appear like hands and legs, but they have no efficiency. The devotee of the Lord, Śrīla Vyāsadeva, knows this very well. He is further advised by Śrīla Nārada to expand the idea so that the entrapped conditioned souls may take lessons from him to understand the Supreme Lord as the primeval cause.", + "According to the Vedic version, the Lord is naturally fully powerful, and thus His supreme energies are always perfect and identical with Him. Both the spiritual and the material skies and their paraphernalia are emanations of the internal and external energies of the Lord. External energy is comparatively inferior, whereas the internal potency is superior. The superior energy is living force, and therefore she is completely identical, but the external energy, being inert, is partially identical. But both the energies are neither equal to nor greater than the Lord, who is the generator of all energies; such energies are always under His control, exactly as electrical energy, however powerful it may be, is always under the control of the engineer.", + "The human being and all other living beings are products of His internal energies. Thus the living being is also identical with the Lord. But he is never equal or superior to the Personality of Godhead. The Lord and living beings are all individual persons. With the help of the material energies the living beings are also creating something, but none of their creations are equal or superior to the creations of the Lord. The human being may create a small playful sputnik and may throw it into outer space, but that does not mean that he can create a planet like the earth or moon and float it in the air as the Lord does. Men with a poor fund of knowledge claim to be equal to the Lord. They are never equal to the Lord. This is never to be. The human being, after attaining complete perfection, may achieve a large percentage of the qualities of the Lord (say up to 78%), but it is never possible to surpass the Lord or to become equal with Him. In a diseased condition only the foolish being claims to be one with the Lord and thus becomes misled by the illusory energy. The misguided living beings, therefore, must accept the supremacy of the Lord and agree to render loving service to Him. For this they have been created.

Art, literature, poetry, painting, etc., may be used in glorifying the Lord. The fiction writers, poets and celebrated literateurs are generally engaged in writing of sensuous subjects, but if they turn towards the service of the Lord they can describe the transcendental pastimes of the Lord. Vālmīki was a great poet, and similarly Vyāsadeva is a great writer, and both of them have absolutely engaged themselves in delineating the transcendental activities of the Lord, and by doing so they have become immortal. Similarly, science and philosophy also should be applied in the service of the Lord. There is no use presenting dry speculative theories for sense gratification. Philosophy and science should be engaged to establish the glory of the Lord. Advanced people are eager to understand the Absolute Truth through the medium of science, and therefore a great scientist should endeavor to prove the existence of the Lord on a scientific basis. Similarly, philosophical speculations should be utilized to establish the Supreme Truth as sentient and all-powerful. Similarly, all other branches of knowledge should always be engaged in the service of the Lord. In the Bhagavad-gītā also the same is affirmed. All \"knowledge\" not engaged in the service of the Lord is but nescience. Real utilization of advanced knowledge is to establish the glories of the Lord, and that is the real import.

Such is the powerful action of devotional service. The living entities are the marginal energy of the Lord, and therefore they are meant for being properly utilized in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. When this is not done, it is called māyā. Therefore the illusion of māyā is at once dissipated as soon as one's full energy is converted in the service of the Lord instead of in sense enjoyment. From the personal example of Śrī Nārada Muni in his previous birth, it is clear that the service of the Lord begins with the service of the Lord's bona fide servants. The Lord says that the service of His servants is greater than His personal service. Service of the devotee is more valuable than the service of the Lord. One should therefore choose a bona fide servant of the Lord constantly engaged in His service and accept such a servant as the spiritual master and engage himself in his (the spiritual master's) service. Such a spiritual master is the transparent medium by which to visualize the Lord who is beyond the conception of the material senses. By service of the bona fide spiritual master, the Lord consents to reveal Himself in proportion to the service rendered. Utilization of the human energy in the service of the Lord is the progressive path of salvation. The whole cosmic creation becomes at once identical with the Lord as soon as service in relation with the Lord is rendered under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master.

As such, Vedānta-vādī, or the followers of the Vedānta, indicates the pure devotees of the Personality of Godhead. Such Vedānta-vādī or the bhakti-vedāntas are impartial in distributing the transcendental knowledge of devotional service. To them no one is enemy or friend; no one is educated or uneducated. No one is especially favorable, and no one is unfavorable. The bhakti-vedāntas see the people in general are wasting time in false sensuous things. Their business is to get the ignorant mass of people to reestablish the lost relationship with the Personality of Godhead. By such endeavor, even the most forgotten soul is roused up to the sense of spiritual life, and thus being initiated by the bhakti-vedāntas, the people in general gradually progress on the path of transcendental realization. So the Vedānta-vādīs initiated the boy even before he became self-controlled and was detached from childish sporting, etc. But before the initiation, he (the boy) became more and more advanced in discipline, which is very essential for one who wishes to make progress in the line. In the system of varṇāśrama-dharma, which is the beginning of actual human life, small boys after five years of age are sent to become brahmacārī at the guru's āśrama where these things are systematically taught to boys, be they king's sons or sons of ordinary citizens. The training was compulsory not only to create good citizens of the state, but also to prepare the boy's future life for spiritual realization. The irresponsible life of sense enjoyment was unknown to the children of the followers of the varṇāśrama system. The boy was even injected with spiritual acumen before being placed by the father in the womb of the mother. Both the father and the mother were responsible for the boy's success in being liberated from the material bondage. That is the process of successful family planning. It is to beget children for complete perfection. Without being self-controlled, without being disciplinary and without being fully obedient, no one can become successful in following the instructions of the spiritual master, and without doing so, no one is able to go back to Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b53913e0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 1.5.25", + "devanagari": "उच्छिष्टलेपान् अनुमोदितो द्विजैः सकृत्स्म भुंजे तदपास्तकिल्बिषः\nएवं प्रवृत्तस्य विशुद्धचेतसस्तद्धर्म एवात्मरुचिः प्रजायते", + "transliteration": "ucchiṣṭa-lepān anumodito dvijaiḥ\nsakṛt sma bhuñje tad-apāsta-kilbiṣaḥ\nevaṁ pravṛttasya viśuddha-cetasas\ntad-dharma evātma-ruciḥ prajāyate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ucchiṣṭa lepān", + "meanings": [ + "the remnants of foodstuff" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anumoditaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being permitted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvijaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the Vedāntist brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakṛt", + "meanings": [ + "once upon a time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sma", + "meanings": [ + "in the past" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuñje", + "meanings": [ + "took" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "by that action" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apāsta", + "meanings": [ + "eliminated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kilbiṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all sins" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pravṛttasya", + "meanings": [ + "being engaged" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśuddha-cetasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of one whose mind is purified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that particular" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharma", + "meanings": [ + "nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-ruciḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental attraction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajāyate", + "meanings": [ + "was manifested." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Once only, by their permission, I took the remnants of their food, and by so doing all my sins were at once eradicated.

It is so because the Absolute is absolute by His name, fame, form, pastimes, entourage, parapharnalia, etc. The Lord descends on this material world out of His causeless mercy and displays His various transcendental pastimes as a human being so that human beings attracted towards Him become able to go back to Godhead. Men are naturally apt to hear histories and narrations of various personalities performing mundane activities without knowing that by such association one simply wastes valuable time and also becomes addicted to the three qualities of mundane nature. Instead of wasting time one can get spiritual success by turning his attention to the transcendental pastimes of the Lord. By hearing the narration of the pastimes of the Lord, one contacts directly the Personality of Godhead, and, as explained before, by hearing about the Personality of Godhead, from within, all accumulated sins of the mundane creature are cleared. Thus being cleared of all sins, the hearer gradually becomes liberated from mundane association and becomes attracted to the features of the Lord. Nārada Muni has just explained this by his personal experience. The whole idea is that simply by hearing about the Lord's pastimes one can become one of the associates of the Lord.

But in fact the Personality of Godhead and the living beings are transcendental, and they have nothing to do with the material nature. When ignorance is removed and it is perfectly realized that there is nothing existing without the Personality of Godhead, then nescience is removed. Since the gross and the subtle bodies are emanations from the Personality of Godhead, the knowledge of light permits one to engage both of them in the service of the Lord. The gross body should be engaged in acts of rendering service to the Lord (as in bringing water, cleansing the temple or making obeisances, etc.). The path of arcanā, or worshiping the Lord in the temple, involves engaging one's gross body in the service of the Lord. Similarly, the subtle mind should be engaged in hearing the transcendental pastimes of the Lord, thinking about them, chanting His name, etc. All such activities are transcendental. None of the gross or subtle senses should otherwise be engaged.

This is the only remedial process. The entire material existence is full of miseries. Foolish people have manufactured, out of their tiny brains, many remedial measures for removing the threefold miseries pertaining to the body and mind, pertaining to the natural distrubances and in relation with other living beings. The whole world is struggling very hard to exist out of these miseries, but men do not know that without the sanction of the Lord no plan or no remedial measure can actually bring about the desired peace and tranquility. The remedial measure to cure a patient by medical treatment is useless if it is not sanctioned by the Lord. To cross the river or the ocean by a suitable boat is no remedial measure if it is not sanctioned by the Lord. We should know for certain that the Lord is the ultimate sanctioning officer, and we must therefore dedicate our attempts to the mercy of the Lord for ultimate success or to get rid of the obstacles on the path of success. The Lord is all-pervading, all-powerful, omniscient and omnipresent. He is the ultimate sanctioning agent of all good or bad effects. We should, therefore, learn to dedicate our activities unto the mercy of the Lord and accept Him either as impersonal Brahman, localized Paramātmā or the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It does not matter what one is. One must dedicate everything in the service of the Lord. If one is a learned scholar, scientist, philosopher, poet, etc., then he should employ his learning to establish the supremacy of the Lord. Try to study the energy of the Lord in every sphere of life. Do not decry Him and try to become like Him or take His position simply by fragmental accumulation of knowledge. If one is an administrator, statesman, warrior, politician, etc., then one should try to establish the Lord's supremacy in statesmanship. Fight for the cause of the Lord as Śrī Arjuna did. In the beginning, Śrī Arjuna, the great fighter, declined to fight, but when he was convinced by the Lord that the fighting was necessary, Śrī Arjuna changed his decision and fought for His cause. Similarly, if one is a businessman, an industrialist, an agriculturist, etc., then one should spend his hard-earned money for the cause of the Lord. Think always that the money which is accumulated is the wealth of the Lord. Wealth is considered to be the goddess of fortune (Lakṣmī), and the Lord is Nārāyaṇa or the husband of Lakṣmī. Try to engage Lakṣmī in the service of Lord Nārāyaṇa and be happy. That is the way to realize the Lord in every sphere of life. The best thing is, after all, to get relief from all material activities and engage oneself completely in hearing the transcendental pastimes of the Lord. But in case of the absence of such an opportunity, one should try to engage everything, for which one has specific attraction, in the service of the Lord, and that is the way of peace and prosperity. The word saṁsūcitam in this stanza is also significant. One should not think for a moment that the realization of Nārada was childish imagination only. It is not like that. It is so realized by the expert and erudite scholars, and that is the real import of the word saṁsūcitam." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/33.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/33.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f15203a6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/33.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 33, + "reference": "SB 1.5.33", + "devanagari": "आमयो यश्च भूतानां जायते येन सुव्रत\nतदेव ह्य् आमयं द्रव्यं न पुनाति चिकित्सितम्", + "transliteration": "āmayo yaśca bhūtānāṁ\njāyate yena suvrata\ntadeva hy āmayaṁ dravyaṁ\nna punāti cikitsitam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "āmayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "diseases" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ ca", + "meanings": [ + "whatever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the living being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jāyate", + "meanings": [ + "become possible" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by the agency" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suvrata", + "meanings": [ + "O good soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "very" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āmayam", + "meanings": [ + "disease" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dravyam", + "meanings": [ + "thing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "does it not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punāti", + "meanings": [ + "cure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cikitsitam", + "meanings": [ + "treated with." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O good soul, does not a thing, applied therapeutically, cure a disease which was caused by that very same thing?", + "purport": [ + "An expert physician treats his patient with a therapeutic diet. For example, milk preparations sometimes cause disorder of the bowels, but the very same milk converted into curd and mixed with some other remedial ingredients cures such disorders. Similarly, the threefold miseries of material existence cannot be mitigated simply by material activities. Such activities have to be spiritualized, just as by fire iron is made red-hot, and thereby the action of fire begins. Similarly, the material conception of a thing is at once changed as soon as it is put into the service of the Lord. That is the secret of spiritual success. We should not try to lord it over the material nature, nor should we reject material things. The best way to make the best use of a bad bargain is to use everything in relation with the supreme spiritual being. Everything is an emanation from the supreme spirit, and by His inconceivable power He can convert spirit into matter and matter into spirit. Therefore a material thing (so-called) is at once turned into a spiritual force by the great will of the Lord. The necessary condition for such a change is to employ so-called matter in the service of the spirit.

As long as the propensity for enjoying the fruit of work is there, one has to continue the transmigration of the soul from one body or place according to one's nature of work. The propensity for enjoyment may be turned into the desire for serving the mission of the Lord. By doing so, one's activity is changed into karma-yoga, or the way by which one can attain spiritual perfection while engaging in the work for which he has a natural tendency. Here the word ātmā indicates the categories of all fruitive work. The conclusion is that when the result of all fruitive and other work is dovetailed with the service of the Lord, it will cease to generate further karma and will gradually develop into transcendental devotional service, which will not only cut off completely the root of the banyan tree of work but will also carry the performer to the lotus feet of the Lord.", + "The summary is that one has to, first of all, seek the association of pure devotees who are not only learned in the Vedānta but are self-realized souls and unalloyed devotees of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa the Personality of Godhead. In that association, the neophyte devotees must render loving service physically and mentally without reservation. This serivce attitude will induce the great souls to be more favorable in bestowing their mercy, which injects the neophyte with all the transcendental qualities of the pure devotees. Gradually this is developed into a strong attachment to hearing the transcendental pastimes of the Lord, which makes him able to catch up the constitutional position of the gross and subtle bodies and beyond them the knowledge of pure soul and his eternal relation with the Supreme Soul, the Personality of Godhead. After the relation is ascertained by establishment of the eternal relation, pure devotional service of the Lord begins gradually developing into perfect knowledge of the Personality of Godhead beyond the purview of impersonal Brahman and localized Paramātmā. By such Puruṣottama-yoga, as it is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā, one is made perfect even during the present corporeal existence, and one exhibits all the good qualities of the Lord to the highest percentage.

Bhakti-yoga is independent of jñāna or karma; on the other hand, jñāna and karma are dependent of bhakti-yoga. This kriyā-yoga or karma-yoga, as recommended by Śrī Nārada to Vyāsa, is specifically recommended because the principle is to satisfy the Lord. The Lord does not want His sons, the living beings, to suffer the threefold miseries of life. He desires that all of them come to Him and live with Him, but going back to Godhead means that one must purify himself from material infections. When work is, therefore, performed to satisfy the Lord, the performer becomes gradually purified from the material affection. This purification means attainment of spiritual knowledge. Therefore knowledge is dependent on such karma or work which is done on behalf of the Lord. Other knowledge, being devoid of bhakti-yoga or satisfaction of the Lord, cannot lead one back to the kingdom of God, which means that it cannot even offer salvation as is already explained in connection with the stanza, naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitam, etc. The conclusion is that a devotee engaged in the unalloyed service of the Lord, specifically in hearing and chanting of His transcendental glories, becomes simultaneously spiritually enlightened by the divine grace, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/36.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/36.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a57363ce --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/05/verses/36.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 36, + "reference": "SB 1.5.36", + "devanagari": "कुर्वाणा यत्र कर्माणि भगवच्छिक्षयासकृत्\nगृणन्ति गुणनामानि कृष्णस्यानुस्मरन्ति च", + "transliteration": "kurvāṇā yatra karmāṇi\nbhagavac-chikṣayāsakṛt\ngṛṇanti guṇa-nāmāni\nkṛṣṇasyānusmaranti ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kurvāṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "while performing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "thereupon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "duties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śikṣayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the will of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asakṛt", + "meanings": [ + "constantly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛṇanti", + "meanings": [ + "takes on" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmāni", + "meanings": [ + "names" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anusmaranti", + "meanings": [ + "constantly remembers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "While performing duties according to the order of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one constantly remembers Him, His names and qualities.", + "purport": [ + "An expert devotee of the Lord can mold his life in such a way that while performing all kinds of duties either for this or the next life, he can constantly remember the Lord's name, fame, qualities, etc. The order of the Lord is distinctly there in the Bhagavad-gītā: one should work only for the Lord in all spheres of life. In every sphere of life the Lord should be situated as the proprietor. According to the Vedic rites, even in the worship of some demigods like Indra, Brahmā, Sarasvatī, Gaṇeśa, the system is that in all circumstances the representation of Viṣṇu must be there as the yajñeśvara, or the controlling power of such sacrifices.

Except Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, no one else can claim to be the proprietor of everything within His creation. A pure devotee remembers this constantly, and in doing so he repeats the transcendental name, fame and qualities of the Lord, which means that he is constantly in touch with the Lord. The Lord is identical with His name, fame, etc., and therefore to be associated with His name, fame, etc., constantly, means actually to associate with the Lord.", + "The major portion of our monetary income, not less than fifty percent, must be spent to carry out the order of Lord Kṛṣṇa. We should not only give the profit of our earning to this cause, but we must also arrange to preach this cult of devotion to others because that is also one of the orders of the Lord. The Lord definitely says that no one is more dear to Him than one who is always engaged in the preaching work of the Lord's name and fame all over the world. The scientific discoveries of the material world can also be equally engaged in carrying out His order. He wants the message of the Bhagavad-gītā to be preached amongst His devotees. It may not be so done amongst those who have no credit of austerities, charity, education, etc. Therefore, the attempt must go on to convert unwilling men to become His devotees. Lord Caitanya has taught a very simple method in this connection. He has taught the lesson for preaching the transcendental message through singing, dancing and refreshment. As such, fifty percent of our income may be spent for this purpose. In this fallen age of quarrel and dissension, if only the leading and wealthy persons of society agree to spend fifty percent of their income in the service of the Lord, as it is taught by Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, there is absolute certainty of converting this hell of pandemonium to the transcendental abode of the Lord. No one will disagree to partake in a function where good singing, dancing and refreshment are administered. Everyone will attend such a function, and everyone is sure to feel individually the transcendental presence of the Lord. This alone will help the attendant associate with the Lord and thereby purify himself in spiritual realization. The only condition for successfully executing such spiritual activities is that they must be conducted under the guidance of a pure devotee who is completely free from all mundane desires, fruitive activities and dry speculations about the nature of the Lord. No one has to discover the nature of the Lord. It is already spoken by the Lord Himself in the Bhagavad-gītā especially and in all other Vedic literatures generally. We have simply to accept them in toto and abide by the orders of the Lord. That will guide us to the path of perfection. One can remain in his own position. No one has to change his position, especially in this age of variegated difficulties. The only condition is that one must give up the habit of dry speculation to become one with the Lord. And after giving up such lofty puffed up vanities, one may very submissively receive the orders of the Lord in the Bhagavad-gītā or Bhāgavatam from the lips of a bona fide devotee whose qualification is mentioned above.

There is no trace of a tinge of materiality in His person, and thus one who has the slightest tinge of material affection cannot approach Him. The beginning of devotional service starts from the point when one is freed from at least two forms of material modes, namely the mode of passion and the mode of ignorance. The result is exhibited by the signs of being freed from kāma (lust) and lobha (covetousness). That is to say, one must be freed from the desires for sense satisfaction and avarice for sense gratification. The balanced mode of nature is goodness. And to be completely freed from all material tinges is to become free from the modes of goodness also. To search the audience of God in a lonely forest is considered to be in the mode of goodness. One can go out into the forest to attain spiritual perfection, but that does not mean that one can see the Lord personally there. One must be completely freed from all material attachment and be situated on the plane of transcendence, which alone will help the devotee get in personal touch with the Personality of Godhead. The best method is that one should live at a place where the transcendental form of the Lord is worshiped. The temple of the Lord is a transcendental place, whereas the forest is a materially good habitation. A neophyte devotee is always recommended to worship the Deity of the Lord (arcanā) rather than go into the forest to search out the Lord. Devotional service begins from the process of arcanā, which is better than going out in the forest. In his present life, which is completely freed from all material hankerings, Śrī Nārada Muni does not go into the forest, although he can turn every place into Vaikuṇṭha by his presence only. He travels from one planet to another to convert men, gods, Kinnaras, Gandharvas, ṛṣis, munis and all others to become devotees of the Lord. By his activities he has engaged many devotees like Prahlāda Mahārāja, Dhruva Mahārāja and many others in the transcendental service of the Lord. A pure devotee of the Lord, therefore, follows in the footsteps of the great devotees like Nārada, Prahlāda, etc., and engages his whole time in glorifying the Lord by the process of kīrtana.

He must be doing something, thinking of something or talking about something. Generally the materialistic men think and discuss about subjects which satisfy their senses. But as these things are exercized under the influence of the external illusory energy, such sensual activities do not actually give them any satisfaction. On the contrary, they become full with cares and anxieties. This is called māyā, or what is not. That which cannot give them satisfaction is accepted as an object for satisfaction. So Nārada Muni, by his personal experience, says that satisfaction for such frustrated beings engaged in sense gratification is to chant always the activities of the Lord. The point is that the subject matter only should be changed. No one can check the thinking activities of a living being, nor the feeling, willing or working processes. But if one wants actual happiness, one must change the subject matter only. Instead of talking of the politics of a dying man, one might discuss the politics administered by the Lord Himself. Instead of relishing activities of the cinema artists, one can turn his attention to the activities of the Lord with His eternal associates like the gopīs and Lakṣmīs. The almighty Personality of Godhead, by His causeless mercy, descends on the earth and manifests activities almost on the line of the worldly men, but at the same time extraordinarily, because He is almighty. He does so for the benefit of all conditioned souls so that they can turn their attention to transcendence. By doing so, the conditioned soul will gradually be promoted to the transcendental position and easily cross the ocean of nescience, the source of all miseries.

On the other hand, Nārada Muni recommends another method for controlling the senses in the transcendental loving service of Mukunda the Personality of Godhead. By his experience he says that devotional service of the Lord is more effective and practical than the system of artificially controlling the senses. In the service of the Lord Mukunda, the senses are transcendentally engaged. Thus there is no chance of their being engaged in sense satisfaction. The senses want some engagement. To check them artificially is no check at all because as soon as there is some opportunity for enjoyment, the serpent-like senses will certainly take advantage of it. There are many such instances in history, just like Viśvāmitra Muni, who fell a victim of the beauty of Menakā.

There is no reason or obligation for his travelling, and no one can stop him from his free movement. Similarly, the transcendental system of devotional service is also free. It may or may not develop in a particular person even after undergoing all the detailed formulas. Similarly, the association of the devotee is also free. One may be fortunate to have it, or one may not have it even after thousands of endeavors. Therefore, in all spheres of devotional service, freedom is the main pivot.

This is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā. One can perfectly realize the Absolute Truth Personality of Godhead only by the process of devotional service, and one can enter into the kingdom of God by such perfect knowledge. Imperfect realization of the Absolute by the partial approach of the impersonal Brahman or localized Paramātmā does not permit anyone to enter into the kingdom of God. Śrī Nārada advised Śrīla Vyāsadeva to become absorbed in transcendental meditation on the Personality of Godhead and His activities. Śrīla Vyāsadeva did not take notice of the effulgence of Brahman because that is not absolute vision. The absolute vision is the Personality of Godhead, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā: Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti. In the Upaniṣads also it is confirmed that Vāsudeva, the Personality of Godhead, is covered by the golden glowing hiraṇmayena pātreṇa veil of impersonal Brahman, and when that curtain is removed by the mercy of the Lord the real face of the Absolute is seen. The Absolute is mentioned here as the puruṣa or person. The Absolute Personality of Godhead is mentioned in so many Vedic literatures, and in the Bhagavad-gītā, the puruṣa is confirmed as the eternal and original person. The Absolute Personality of Godhead is the perfect person. The Supreme Person has manifold energies, out of which the internal, external and marginal energies are specifically important. The energy mentioned here is the external energy, as will be clear from the statements of her activities. The internal energy is there along with the Absolute Person as the moonlight is there with the moon. The external energy is compared with darkness because it keeps the living entities in the darkness of ignorance. The word apāśrayam suggests that this energy of the Lord is under full control. The internal potency or superior energy is also called māyā, but it is spiritual māyā, or energy exhibited in the absolute realm. When one is under the shelter of this internal potency, the darkness of material ignorance is at once dissipated. And even those who are ātmārāma, or fixed in trance, take shelter of this māyā or internal energy. Devotional service, or bhakti-yoga, is the function of the internal energy; thus there is no place for the inferior energy or material energy, just as there is no place for darkness in the effulgence of spiritual light. Such internal energy is even superior to the spiritual bliss attainable in the conception of impersonal Brahman. It is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā that the impersonal Brahman effulgence is also an emanation from the Absolute Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa.

All this is mentioned in this particular verse. The living being is by constitution transcendental to material encagement, but he is now imprisoned by the external energy, and therefore he thinks himself one of the material products. And due to this unholy contact, the pure spiritual entity suffers material miseries under the modes of material nature. The living entity misunderstands himself to be a material product. This means that the present perverted way of thinking, feeling and willing, under material conditions, is not natural for him. But he has his normal way of thinking, feeling and willing. The living being in his original state is not without thinking, willing and feeling power. It is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā that the actual knowledge of the conditioned soul is now covered by nescience. Thus the theory that a living being is absolute impersonal Brahman is refuted herein. This cannot be, because the living entity has his own way of thinking in his original unconditional state also. The present conditional state is due to the influence of the external energy, which means that the illusory energy takes the initiative while the Supreme Lord is aloof. The Lord does not desire that a living being be illusioned by external energy. The external energy is aware of this fact, but still she accepts a thankless task of keeping the forgotten soul under illusion by her bewildering influence. The Lord does not interfere with the task of the illusory energy because such performances of the illusory energy are also necessary for reformation of the conditioned soul. An affectionate father does not like his children to be chastised by another agent, yet he puts his disobedient children under the custody of a severe man just to bring them to order. But the all-affectionate Almighty Father desires at the same time relief for the conditioned soul, relief from the clutches of the illusory energy. The king puts the disobedient citizens within the walls of the jail, but sometimes the king, desiring the prisoners' relief, personally goes there and pleads for reformation, and on doing so the prisoners are set free. Similarly, the Supreme Lord descends from His kingdom upon the kingdom of illusory energy and personally gives relief in the form of the Bhagavad-gītā, wherein He personally suggests that the ways of illusory energy are very stiff to overcome, but one who surrenders unto the lotus feet of the Lord is set free by the order of the Supreme. This surrendering process is the remedial measure for getting relief from the bewildering ways of the illusory energy. The surrendering process is completed by the influence of association. The Lord has suggested, therefore, that by the influence of the speeches of saintly persons who have actually realized the Supreme, men are engaged in His transcendental loving service. The conditioned soul gets a taste for hearing about the Lord, and by such hearing only he is gradually elevated to the platform of respect, devotion and attachment for the Lord. The whole thing is completed by the surrendering process. Herein also the same suggestion is made by the Lord in His incarnation of Vyāsadeva. This means that the conditioned souls are being reclaimed by the Lord both ways, namely by the process of punishment by the external energy of the Lord, and by Himself as the spiritual master within and without. Within the heart of every living being the Lord Himself as the Supersoul Paramātmā becomes the spiritual master, and from without He becomes the spiritual master in the shape of scriptures, saints and initiator spiritual master. This is still more explicitly explained in the next śloka.", + "Personal superintendence of the illusory energy is confirmed in the Vedas (the Keṇa Upaniṣad) in relation to the demigods' controlling power. Herein also it is clearly stated that the living entity is controlled by the external energy in a personal capacity. The living being thus subject to the control of external energy is differently situated. It is clear, however, from the present statement of Bhāgavatam that the same external energy is situated in the inferior position before the Personality of Godhead or the perfect being. The perfect being, or the Lord, cannot be approached even by the illusory energy, who can only work on the living entities. Therefore it is sheer imagination that the Supreme Lord is illusioned by the illusory energy and thus becomes a living being. If the living being and the Lord would have been in the same category, then it would have been quite possible for Vyāsadeva to see it, and there would have been no question of material distress on the part of the illusioned being because the Supreme Being is fully cognizant. So there are so many unscrupulous imaginations on the part of the monists to endeavor to put both the Lord and the living being in the same category. Had it been so, then Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī would not have taken the trouble to describe the transcendental pastimes of the Lord, if they were all manifestations of illusory energy.", + "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the summum bonum remedy for the suffering humanity in the clutches of māyā. Śrīla Vyāsadeva therefore first of all diagnosed the actual disease of the conditioned souls, i.e. their being illusioned by the external energy. He also saw the perfect Supreme Being from whom illusory energy is far removed, though He saw both the diseased conditioned souls and also the cause of the disease. And the remedial measures are suggested in the next verse. Both the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the living beings are undoubtedly qualitatively one, but the Lord is the controller of the illusory energy, whereas the living entity is controlled by the illusory energy. Thus the Lord and the living beings are simultaneously one and different. Another point is distinct herein: that eternal relation between the Lord and the living being is transcendental, otherwise the Lord would not have taken the trouble to reclaim the conditioned souls from the clutches of māyā. In the same way the living entity is also required to revive his natural love and affection for the Lord, and that is the highest perfection of the living entity.

It is a great transcendental science and begins with the process of hearing and chanting the name, fame, glory, etc., of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Revival of the dormant affection or love of Godhead does not depend on the mechanical system of hearing and chanting, but it solely and wholly depends on the causeless mercy of the Lord. When the Lord is fully satisfied with the sincere efforts of the devotee, He may endow him with His loving transcendental service.

The living entities are mentioned as prakṛti in the Bhagavad-gītā, and in Sanskrit prakṛti is a feminine object. The Lord is always described as the Parama-Puruṣa or the supreme male personality. Thus the affection between the Lord and the living entities is something like that between the male and the female. Therefore the term love of Godhead is quite appropriate.", + "Loving devotional service of the Lord begins with hearing about the Lord. There is no difference between the Lord and the subject matter heard about Him. The Lord is absolute in all respects, and thus there is no difference between Him and the subject matter heard about Him. Therefore, hearing about Him means immediate contact with Him by the process of vibration of the transcendental sound. And the transcendental sound is so effective that it acts at once by removing all material affections mentioned above. As mentioned before, a living entity develops a sort of complexity by material association, and the illusory encagement of the material body is accepted as an actual fact. Under such false complexity, the living beings under different categories of life become illusioned in different ways. Even in the most developed stage of human life, the same illusion prevails in the form of many isms and divides the loving relation with the Lord and thereby divides the loving relation between man and man. By hearing the subject matter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam this false complexity of materialism is removed, and real peace in society begins, which politicians aspire for so eagerly in so many political situations. The politicians want a peaceful situation between man and man, and nation and nation, but at the same time, because of too much attachment for material domination, there is illusion and fearfulness. Therefore the politicians' peace conferences cannot bring about peace in society. It can only be done by hearing the subject matter described in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam about the Supreme Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa. The foolish politicians may go on holding peace and summit conferences for hundreds of years, but they will fail to achieve success. Until we reach the stage of reestablishing our lost relation with Kṛṣṇa, the illusion of accepting the body as the self will prevail, and thus fearfulness will also prevail. As for validity of Śrī Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, there are hundreds and thousands of evidences from revealed scriptures, and there are hundreds and thousands of evidences from personal experiences of devotees in various places like Vṛndāvana, Navadvīpa and Purī. Even in the Kaumadi Dictionary the synonyms of Kṛṣṇa are given as the son of Yaśodā and the Supreme Personality of Godhead Parambrahman. The conclusion is that simply by hearing the Vedic literature Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, one can have direct connection with the Supreme Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and thereby one can attain the highest perfection of life by transcending worldly miseries, illusion and fearfulness.

According to the Viśva-Prakāśa Sanskrit Dictionary, there are seven synonyms for the word ātmārāma, which are as follows: 1) Brahman (the Absolute Truth), 2) body, 3) mind, 4) endeavor, 5) endurance, 6) intelligence, and 7) personal habits.", + "The word munayaḥ refers to 1) those who are thoughtful, 2) those who are grave or silent, 3) ascetics, 4) the persistent, 5) mendicants, 6) sages, and 7) saints.", + "The word nirgrantha conveys these ideas: 1) one who is liberated from nescience, 2) one who has no connection with scriptural injunction, i.e., who is freed from the obligation of the rules and regulations mentioned in the revealed scriptures like ethics, Vedas, philosophy, psychology, metaphysics, etc., (in other words the fools, illiterate, urchins, etc., who have no connection with regulative principles), 3) a capitalist, and also 4) one who is penniless.", + "According to the Śabda-kośa Dictionary, the affix ni is used in the sense of 1) certainty, 2) counting, 3) building, and 4) forbiddance, and the word grantha is used in the sense of wealth, thesis, vocabulary, etc.", + "The word urukrama means the one whose activities are glorious. Krama means step. This word urukrama specifically indicates the Lord's incarnation as Vāmana, who covered the whole universe by immeasurable steps. Lord Viṣṇu is powerful, and His activities are so glorious that He has created the spiritual world by His internal potency and the material world by His external potency. By His all-pervading features He is everywhere present as the Supreme Truth, and in His personal feature He is always present in His transcendental abode of Goloka Vṛndāvana where He displays His transcendental pastimes in all variegatedness. His activities cannot be compared with anyone else's, and therefore the word urukrama is just applicable to Him only.", + "According to Sanskrit verbal arrangement, kurvanti means to do things for someone else. Therefore, it means that the ātmārāmas render devotional service unto the Lord not for personal interest but for the pleasure of the Lord, Urukrama.", + "Hetu means causal. There are many causes for one's sense satisfaction, and they can be chiefly classified as material enjoyment, mystic powers and liberation, which are generally desired by progressive persons. As far as material enjoyments are concerned, they are innumerable, and the materialists are eager to increase them more and more because they are under the illusory energy. There is no end to the list of material enjoyments, nor can anyone in the material universe have all of them. As far as the mystic powers are concerned, they are eight in all (such as to become the minutist in form, to become weightless, to have anything one desires, to lord it over the material nature, to control other living beings, to throw earthly globes in outer space, etc.). These mystic powers are mentioned in the Bhāgavatam (11.15). The forms of liberation are five in number.", + "Therefore, unalloyed devotion means service to the Lord without desire for the above-mentioned personal benefits. And the powerful Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa can be fully satisfied by such unalloyed devotees free from all sorts of desires for personal benefit.", + "Unalloyed devotional service of the Lord progresses in different stages. Practice of devotional service in the material field is of eighty-one different qualities, and above such activities there is the transcendental practice of devotional service, which is one and is called sādhana-bhakti. When unalloyed practice of sādhana-bhakti is matured into transcendental love for the Lord, the transcendental loving service of the Lord begins gradually developing into nine progressive stages of loving service under the headings of attachment, love, affection, feelings, affinity, adherence, following, ecstasy and intense feelings of separation.", + "The attachment of an inactive devotee develops up to the stage of transcendental love of God. Attachment of an active servitor develops up to the stage of adherence, and that for a friendly devotee develops up to the stage of following, and the same is also the case for the paternal devotees. Devotees in conjugal love develop ecstasy up to the stage of intense feelings of separation. These are some of the features of unalloyed devotional service of the Lord.", + "According to Hari-bhakti-sudhodaya, the import of the word ittham-bhūta is complete bliss. Transcendental bliss in the realization of impersonal Brahman becomes comparable with the scanty water contained in the pit made by a cow's hoof. It is nothing compared to the ocean of bliss of the vision of the Personality of Godhead. The personal form of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is so attractive that it comprehends all attraction, all bliss and all tastes (rasas). These attractions are so strong that no one wants to exchange material enjoyment, mystic powers and liberation for them. There is no need of logical arguments in support of this statement, but out of one's own nature one becomes attracted by the qualities of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. We must know for certain that the qualities of the Lord have nothing to do with mundane qualities. All of them are full of bliss, knowledge and eternity. There are innumerable qualities of the Lord, and one is attracted by one quality while another is attracted by another.", + "Great sages, such as the four bachelor devotees Sanaka, Sanātana, Sananda and Sanat-kumāra, are attracted by the fragrance of flowers and tulasī leaves anointed with the pulp of sandalwood offered at the lotus feet of the Lord. Similarly, Śukadeva Gosvāmī was attracted by the transcendental pastimes of the Lord. Śukadeva Gosvāmī was already situated in the liberated stage, yet he was attracted by the pastimes of the Lord. This proves that the quality of His pastimes has nothing to do with material affinity. Similarly, the young cowherd damsels were attracted by the bodily feature of the Lord, and Rukmiṇī was attracted by hearing about the glories of the Lord. Lord Kṛṣṇa attracts even the mind of the goddess of fortune. He attracts, in special cases, the minds of all young girls. He attracts the minds of the elderly ladies by paternal affection. He attracts the minds of the male in the humors of servitude and friendship.", + "The word hari conveys various meanings, but the chief import of the word is that He (the Lord) vanquishes everything inauspicious and takes away the mind of the devotee by awarding pure transcendental love. By remembering the Lord in acute distress one can be free from all varieties of miseries and anxieties. Gradually the Lord vanquishes all obstacles on the path of devotional service of a pure devotee, and the result of nine devotional activities, such as hearing, chanting, etc., becomes manifested.", + "By His personal features and transcendental attributes, the Lord attracts all psychological activities of a pure devotee. Such is the attractive power of Lord Kṛṣṇa. The attraction is so powerful that a pure devotee never hankers for any one of the four principles of religion. These are the attractive features of the transcendental attributes of the Lord. And adding to this the words api and ca, one can increase the imports unlimitedly. According to Sanskrit grammar there are seven synonyms for the word api.", + "So by interpreting each and every word of this śloka, one can see unlimited numbers of transcendental qualities of Lord Kṛṣṇa that attract the mind of a pure devotee." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/07/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/07/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d03380c6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/07/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 1.7.11", + "devanagari": "हरेर्गुणाक्षिप्तमतिर्भगवान्बादरायणिः\nअध्यगान्महद् आख्यानं नित्यं विष्णुजनप्रियः", + "transliteration": "harer guṇākṣipta-matir\nbhagavān bādarāyaṇiḥ\nadhyagān mahad ākhyānaṁ\nnityaṁ viṣṇu-jana-priyaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of Hari, the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental attribute" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākṣipta", + "meanings": [ + "being absorbed in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "matiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bādarāyaṇiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "son of Vyāsadeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhyagāt", + "meanings": [ + "underwent studies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahat", + "meanings": [ + "great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākhyānam", + "meanings": [ + "narration" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nityam", + "meanings": [ + "regularly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣṇu-jana", + "meanings": [ + "devotees of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "beloved." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, son of Śrīla Vyāsadeva, was not only transcendentally powerful.

After his birth, the child was still more educated in the subject of the Bhāgavatam by recitation of the actual poems.", + "The idea is that generally the liberated souls are attached to the feature of impersonal Brahman with a monistic view of becoming one with the supreme whole. But by the association of pure devotees like Vyāsadeva, even the liberated soul becomes attracted to the transcendental qualities of the Lord. By the mercy of Śrī Nārada, Śrīla Vyāsadeva was able to narrate the great epic of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and by the mercy of Vyāsadeva, Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī was able to grasp the import. The transcendental qualities of the Lord are so attractive that Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī became detached from being completely absorbed in impersonal Brahman and positively took up the personal activity of the Lord.", + "Practically he was thrown from the impersonal conception of the Absolute, thinking within himself that he had simply wasted so much time in devoting himself to the impersonal feature of the Supreme, or in other words, he realized more transcendental bliss with the personal feature than the impersonal. And from that time, not only he himself became very dear to the Viṣṇu-jana or the devotees of the Lord, but also the Viṣṇu-jana became very dear to him. The devotees of the Lord, who do not wish to kill the individuality of the living entities and who desire to become personal servitors of the Lord, do not very much like the impersonalists, and similarly the impersonalists, who desire to become one with the Supreme, are unable to evaluate the devotees of the Lord. Thus from time immemorial these two transcendental pilgrims have sometimes been competitors. In other words, each of them likes to keep separate from the other because of the ultimate personal and impersonal realizations. Therefore it appears that Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī also had no liking for the devotees. But since he himself became a saturated devotee, he desired always the transcendental association of the Viṣṇu-jana, and the Viṣṇu-jana also liked his association since he became a personal Bhāgavata. Thus both the son and the father were completely cognizant of the transcendental knowledge in Brahman, and afterwards both of them became absorbed in the personal features of the Supreme Lord.

Political morality is to punish a person by a life sentence in order to save a cruel person from going to hell. That a murderer is condemned to a life sentence by the state is good for the culprit because in his next life he will not have to suffer for his act of murder. Such a life sentence for the murderer is the lowest possible punishment offered to him, and it is said in the smṛti śāstras that men who are punished by the king on the principle of a life for a life are purified of all their sins, so much so that they may be eligible for being promoted to the planets of heaven. According to Manu, the great author of civic codes and religious principles, even the killer of an animal is to be considered a murderer because animal food is never meant for the civilized man, whose prime duty is to prepare himself for going back to Godhead. He says that in the act of killing an animal, there is a regular conspiracy by the party of sinners, and all of them are liable to be punished as murderers exactly like a party of conspirators who kill a human being combinedly. He who gives permission, he who kills the animal, he who sells the slaughtered animal, he who cooks the animal, he who administers distribution of the foodstuff, and at last he who eats such cooked animal food are all murderers, and all of them are liable to be punished by the laws of nature. No one can create a living being despite all advancement of material science, and therefore no one has the right to kill a living being by one's independent whims. For the animal eaters, the scriptures have sanctioned restricted animal sacrifices only, and such sanctions are there just to restrict the opening of slaughterhouses and not to encourage animal killing. The procedure under which animal sacrifice is allowed in the scriptures is good both for the animal sacrificed and the animal eaters. It is good for the animal in the sense that the sacrificed animal is at once promoted to a human form of life after being sacrificed at the altar, and the animal eater is saved from grosser types of sins (eating meats supplied by organized slaughterhouses which are ghastly places for breeding all kinds of material afflictions to society, country and to the people in general).

Aśvatthāmā may be respected by a good-natured woman, but that does not mean that he is as good as a genuine brāhmaṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/07/verses/43.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/07/verses/43.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..837fdb31 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/07/verses/43.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 43, + "reference": "SB 1.7.43", + "devanagari": "उवाच चासहन्त्य् अस्य बन्धनानयनं सती\nमुच्यतां मुच्यताम् एष ब्राह्मणो नितरां गुरुः", + "transliteration": "uvāca cāsahanty asya\nbandhanānayanaṁ satī\nmucyatāṁ mucyatām eṣa\nbrāhmaṇo nitarāṁ guruḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asahantī", + "meanings": [ + "being unbearable for her" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "his" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bandhanā", + "meanings": [ + "being bound up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ānayanam", + "meanings": [ + "bringing him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satī", + "meanings": [ + "the devoted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mucyatām", + "meanings": [ + "just get him released" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brāhmaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a brāhmaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nitarām", + "meanings": [ + "our" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guruḥ", + "meanings": [ + "teacher." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "She could not tolerate Aśvatthāmā's being bound by ropes, and being a devoted lady, she said: Release him, for he is a brāhmaṇa, our spiritual master.", + "purport": [ + "As soon as Aśvatthāmā was brought before Draupadī, she thought it intolerable that a brāhmaṇa should be arrested like a culprit and brought before her in that condition, especially when the brāhmaṇa happened to be a teacher's son.", + "Arjuna arrested Aśvatthāmā knowing perfectly well that he was the son of Droṇācārya.

On this consideration, both Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna were right in condemning Aśvatthāmā. But to a good lady like Draupadī, the matter was considered not from the angle of śāstric vision, but as a matter of custom. By custom, Aśvatthāmā was offered the same respect as was offered to his father. It was so because generally the people accept the son of a brāhmaṇa as a real brāhmaṇa, by sentiment only.

Gross military science is dependent on material weapons, but finer than that is the art of throwing the arrows saturated with Vedic hymns, which act more effectively than gross material weapons like machine guns or atomic bombs. The control is by Vedic mantras, or the transcendental science of sound. It is said in the Rāmāyaṇa that Mahārāja Daśaratha, the father of Lord Śrī Rāma, used to control arrows by sound only. He could pierce his target with his arrow by hearing the sound only, without seeing the object. So this is a finer military science than that of the gross material military weapons used nowadays. Arjuna was taught all this, and therefore Draupadī wished that Arjuna feel obliged to Ācārya Droṇa for all these benefits. And in the absence of Droṇācārya, his son was the representative. That was the opinion of the good lady Draupadī. It may be argued why Droṇācārya, a rigid brāhmaṇa, should be a teacher in military science.

We can imagine Bhīma ready to kill while Draupadī is obstructing him. And in order to prevent both of them, the Lord discovered another two arms.

Therefore, if Śrī Kṛṣṇa is called caturbhujaḥ, there is no contradiction. If need be He can display hundreds of arms, as He exhibited in His viśva-rūpa shown to Arjuna.

The living entities are eternally under the subjugation of the Almighty Lord. The Lord makes all the laws and orders, and these laws and orders are generally called dharma or religion. No one can create any religious formula. Bona fide religion is to abide by the orders of the Lord. The Lord's orders are clearly declared in the Bhagavad-gītā. Everyone should follow Him only or His orders, and that will make all happy, both materially and spiritually. As long as we are in the material world, it is our duty to follow the orders of the Lord, and if by the grace of the Lord we are liberated from the clutches of the material world, then in our liberated stage also we can render transcendental loving service unto the Lord. In our material stage we can neither see ourselves nor the Lord for want of spiritual vision. But when we are liberated from the material affection and are situated in our original spiritual form we can see both ourselves as well as the Lord face to face. Mukti means to be reinstated in one's original spiritual status after giving up the material conception of life. Therefore, human life is specifically meant for qualifying ourselves for this spiritual liberty. Unfortunately, under the influence of illusory material energy, we accept this spot-life for a few years only as our permanent existence and thus become illusioned by possessing so-called country, home, land, children, wife, community, wealth, etc., which are false representations created by māyā (illusion). And under the dictation of māyā, we fight with one another to protect these false possessions. By cultivating spiritual knowledge, we can realize that we have nothing to do with all this material paraphernalia. Then at once we become free from material attachment. And this clearance of the misgivings of material existence at once takes place by association of the Lord's devotees who are able to inject the transcendental sound into the depth of the bewildered heart and thus make him practically liberated from all lamentation and illusion. That is a summary of the pacifying measures for those affected by the reaction of stringent material laws, exhibited in the forms of birth, death, old age and disease, insoluble factors of material existence. The victims of war, namely, the family members of the Kurus, were lamenting the problems of death, and the Lord pacified them on the basis of knowledge." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e19185e6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 1.8.5", + "devanagari": "साधयित्वाजातशत्रोः स्वं राज्यं कितवैर्हृतम्\nघातयित्वासतो राज्ञः कचस्पर्शक्षतायुषः", + "transliteration": "sādhayitvājāta-śatroḥ\nsvaṁ rājyaṁ kitavair hṛtam\nghātayitvāsato rājñaḥ\nkaca-sparśakṣatāyuṣaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sādhayitvā", + "meanings": [ + "having executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajāta-śatroḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of one who has no enemy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svam rājyam", + "meanings": [ + "own kingdom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kitavaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the clever (Duryodhana and party)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "usurped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghātayitvā", + "meanings": [ + "having killed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the unscrupulous" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājñaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the queen's" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaca", + "meanings": [ + "bunch of hair" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sparśa", + "meanings": [ + "roughly handled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣata", + "meanings": [ + "decreased" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āyuṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the duration of life." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The clever Duryodhana and his party cunningly usurped the kingdom of Yudhiṣṭhira, who had no enemy.

Although all living entities are also transcendental, they are neither original nor infallible. The living entities are apt to fall down under the clutches of material nature, but the Lord is never like that. In the Vedas, therefore, He is described as the chief amongst all living entities. Then again He is addressed as īśvara, or the controller. The living entities or the demigods like Indra, Candra, Sūrya, etc., are also to some extent īśvara, but none of them is the supreme īśvara or the ultimate controller. He is the parameśvara, or the Supersoul. He is both within and with out. Although He was present before Śrīmatī Kuntī as her nephew, He was also within her and everyone else. In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says (Bg. 15.15), \"I am situated in everyone's heart, and due to Me only one remembers, forgets and is cognizant, etc. Through all the Vedas I am to be known because I am the compiler of the Vedas, and I am the teacher of the Vedānta.\" Queen Kuntī affirms that the Lord, although both within and without all living beings, is still invisible. The Lord is, so to speak, a puzzle for the common man. Queen Kuntī experienced personally that Lord Kṛṣṇa was present before her, yet He entered within the womb of Uttarā to save her embryo from the attack of Aśvatthāmā's brahmāstra. Kuntī herself was puzzled whether Śrī Kṛṣṇa is all-pervasive or localized. In fact, He is both, but He reserves the right of not being exposed to persons who are not surrendered souls. This checking curtain is called the māyā energy of the Supreme Lord, and it controls the limited vision of the rebelled soul.

The same is confirmed herein by Queen Kuntī. The less intelligent persons are those who rebel against the authority of the Lord. Such persons are known as asuras. The asuras cannot recognize the Lord's authority. When the Lord appears Himself amongst us, as Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Varāha or in His original form as Kṛṣṇa, He performs many wonderful acts which are humanly impossible. As we shall find in the Tenth Canto of this great literature, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa exhibited His humanly impossible activities even from the days of His lying in the lap of His mother. He killed the Pūtanā witch, although she smeared her breast with poison just to kill the Lord. The Lord sucked her breast like a natural baby, and He sucked out her very life also. Similarly, He lifted the Govardhana Hill, just as a boy picks up a frog's umbrella, and stood several days continually just to give protection to the residents of Vṛndāvana. These are some of the super human activities of the Lord described in the authoritative Vedic literatures like the Purāṇas, Itihāsas (histories), Upaniṣads, etc. He has delivered wonderful instructions in the shape of the Bhagavad-gītā. He has shown marvelous capacities as a hero, as a householder, as a teacher and as a renouncer. He is accepted as the Supreme Personality of Godhead by such authoritative personalities as Vyāsa, Devala, Asita, Nārada, Madhva, Śaṅkara, Rāmānuja, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Jīva Gosvāmī, Viśvanātha Cakravartī, Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī and all other authorities of the line. He has Himself declared as much in many places of the authentic literatures. And yet there is a class of men with demoniac mentality who are always reluctant to accept the Lord as the Supreme Absolute Truth. This is partially due to their poor fund of knowledge and partially due to their stubborn obstinacy which results from various misdeeds in the past and present. Such persons could not recognize Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa even when He was present before them. Another difficulty is that those who depend more on their imperfect senses cannot realize Him as the Supreme Lord. Such persons are like the modern scientist. They want to know everything by their experimental knowledge. But it is not possible to know the Supreme Person by imperfect experimental knowledge. He is described herein as adhokṣaja, or beyond the range of experimental knowledge. All our senses are imperfect. We claim to observe everything and anything, but we must admit that we can observe things under certain material conditions only, which are also beyond our control. The Lord is beyond the observation of sense perception. Queen Kuntī accepts this deficiency of the conditioned soul, especially of the woman class who are less intelligent. For less intelligent men there must be such things as temples, mosques or churches so that they may begin to recognize the authority of the Lord and hear about Him from authorities in such holy places. For less intelligent men, such beginning of spiritual life is essential, and only foolish men decry the establishment of such places of worship, which are required to raise the standard of spiritual attributes for the mass of people. For less intelligent persons, bowing down before the authority of the Lord, as is generally done in the temples, mosques or churches, is as beneficial as it is for the advanced devotees to meditate upon Him by active service." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e42fd08b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 1.8.20", + "devanagari": "तथा परमहंसानां मुनीनाम् अमलात्मनाम्\nभक्तियोगविधानार्थं कथं पश्येम हि स्त्रियः", + "transliteration": "tathā parama-haṁsānāṁ\nmunīnām amalātmanām\nbhakti-yoga-vidhān-ārthaṁ\nkathaṁ paśyema hi striyaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "besides that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parama-haṁsānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the advanced transcendentalists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "munīnām", + "meanings": [ + "of the great philosophers or mental speculators" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amala-ātmanām", + "meanings": [ + "those whose minds are competent to discern between spirit and matter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhakti-yoga", + "meanings": [ + "the science of devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidhāna-artham", + "meanings": [ + "for executing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "how" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśyema", + "meanings": [ + "can observe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "striyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "women." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "You Yourself descend to propagate the transcendental science of devotional service unto the hearts of the advanced transcendentalists and mental speculators who are purified by being able to discriminate between matter and spirit.

Queen Kuntī specifically adores the incarnation or descent of Lord Kṛṣṇa above all other incarnations because in this particular incarnation He is more approachable. In the Rāma incarnation He remained a king's son from His very childhood, but in the incarnation of Kṛṣṇa, although He was son of a king, He at once left the shelter of His real father and mother (King Vasudeva and Queen Devakī) just after His appearance and went to the lap of Yaśodāmāyī to play the part of an ordinary cowherd boy in the blessed Vrajabhūmi, which is very sanctified because of His childhood pastimes. Therefore Lord Kṛṣṇa is more merciful than Lord Rāma. He was undoubtedly very kind to Kuntī's brother Vasudeva and the family. Had He not become the son of Vasudeva and Devakī, Queen Kuntī could not claim Him to be her nephew and thus address Kṛṣṇa in parental affection. But Nanda and Yaśodā are more fortunate because they could relish the Lord's childhood pastimes, which are more attractive than all other pastimes. There is no parallel to His childhood pastimes as exhibited at Vrajabhūmi, which are the proto types of His eternal affairs in the original Kṛṣṇaloka described as the cintāmaṇi-dhāma in the Brahma-saṁhitā. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa descended Himself at Vrajabhūmi with all His transcendental entourage and paraphernalia. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu therefore confirmed that no one is as fortunate as the residents of Vrajabhūmi, and specifically the cowherd girls who dedicated their everything for the satisfaction of the Lord. His pastimes with Nanda and Yaśodā and His pastimes with the cowherd men and especially with the cowherd boys and the cows have caused Him to be known as Govinda. Lord Kṛṣṇa as Govinda is more inclined to the brāhmaṇas and the cows, indicating thereby that human prosperity depends more on these two items, namely brahminical culture and cow protection.

Śrīmatī Kuntī claims herself as unfit to see the Lord because of her being a woman. This is claimed because women, śūdras (the laborer class) and the dvija-bandhus, or the wretched descendants of the higher three classes, are unfit by intelligence to understand transcendental subject matter concerning the spiritual name, fame, attributes, forms, etc., of the Supreme Absolute Truth. Such persons, although they are unfit to enter into the spiritual affairs of the Lord, can see Him as the arca-vigraha who descends on the material world just to distribute favors to the fallen souls, including the above-mentioned women, śūdras and dvija-bandhus. Because such fallen souls cannot see anything beyond matter, the Lord condescends to enter into each and every one of the innumerable universes as the Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, who grows a lotus stem from the lotus-like depression in the center of His transcendental abdomen, and thus Brahmā, the first living being in the universe, is born. Therefore, the Lord is known as the Paṅkajanābhi. The Paṅkajanābha Lord accepts the arca-vigraha (His transcendental form) in different elements, namely a form within the mind, a form made of wood, a form made of earth, a form made of metal, a form made of jewel, a form made of painting, a form drawn on sand, etc. All such forms of the Lord are always decorated with garlands of lotus flower, and there should be a soothing atmosphere in the temple of worship to attract the burning attention of the nondevotees always engaged in material wranglings. The meditators worship a form within the mind. Therefore, the Lord is merciful even to the women, śūdras and dvija-bandhus, provided they agree to visit the temple of worship in different forms made for them. Such temple visitors are not idolators, as alleged by some men with a poor fund of knowledge. All the great ācāryas established such temples of worship in all places just to favor the less intelligent, and one should not pose himself as transcending the stage of temple worship while one is actually in the category of the śūdras and the women or less. One should begin to see the Lord from His lotus feet, gradually rising to the thighs, waist, chest and face. One should not try to look at the face of the Lord without being accustomed to seeing the lotus feet of the Lord. Śrīmatī Kuntī, because of her being the aunt of the Lord, did not begin to see the Lord from the lotus feet because the Lord might feel ashamed, and thus Kuntīdevī, just to save a painful situation for the Lord, began to see the Lord just above His lotus feet, i.e., from the waist of the Lord, gradually rising to the face, and then down to the lotus feet.

Kuntīdevī was also saved from a series of dangers along with her children. But Kuntīdevī was shown more favor because Lord Kṛṣṇa did not save the other children of Devakī, whereas He saved the children of Kuntīdevī. This was done because Devakī's husband, Vasudeva, was living, but Kuntīdevī was a widow, and there was none to help her except Kṛṣṇa. The conclusion is that Kṛṣṇa endows more favor to a devotee who is in greater dangers. Sometimes He puts His pure devotees in such dangers because in that condition of helplessness the devotee becomes more attached to the Lord.

All materialistic men are mad after possessing all these material opulences, and this is known as advancement of material civilization. But the result is that by possessing all these material assets one becomes artificially puffed up, intoxicated by such temporary possessions. Consequently, such materially puffed up persons are incapable of uttering the holy name of the Lord by addressing Him feelingly as \"O Govinda, O Kṛṣṇa.\" It is said in the śāstras that by once uttering the holy name of the Lord, the sinner gets rid of a quantity of sins that he is unable to commit. Such is the power of uttering the holy name of the Lord. There is not the least exaggeration in this statement. Actually the Lord's holy name has such powerful potency. But there is a quality to such utterances also. It depends on the quality of feeling. A helpless man can feelingly utter the holy name of the Lord, whereas a man who utters the same holy name in great material satisfaction cannot be so sincere. Therefore, a materially puffed up person may utter the holy name of the Lord occasionally, but he is incapable of uttering the name in quality. Therefore, the four principles of material advancement, namely 1) high parentage, 2) good wealth, 3) high education and 4) attractive beauty, etc., are, so to speak, disqualifications for progress on the path of spiritual advancement. Material covering of the pure spirit soul is an external feature, as much as fever is an external feature of the unhealthy body. The general process is to decrease the degree of the fever and not to aggravate it by maltreatment. Sometimes it is seen that spiritually advanced persons become materially impoverished. This is no discouragement. On the other hand, such impoverishment is a good sign as much as the falling of temperature is a good sign. The principle of life should be to decrease the degree of material intoxication which leads one to be more and more illusioned about the aim of life.

Therefore a living being cannot be in the real sense of the term, a renouncer. A living being renounces something for gaining something more valuable. A student sacrifices his childish proclivities to gain better education. A servant gives up his job for a better job. Similarly, a devotee renounces the material world not for nothing but for something tangible in spiritual value. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī and Sanātana Gosvāmī and Śrīla Raghunātha Gosvāmī and others gave up their worldly pomp and prosperity for the sake of the service of the Lord. They were big men in the worldly sense. The Gosvāmīs were ministers in the government service of Bengal, and Śrīla Dāsa Gosvāmī was the son of a big zamindar of his time. But they left everything to gain something superior to what they previously possessed. The devotees are generally without material prosperity, but they have a very secret treasure house in the lotus feet of the Lord. There is a nice story about Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī. He had a touchstone with him, and this stone was left in a pile of refuse. A needy man took it, but later on wondered why the valuable stone was kept in such a neglected place. He therefore asked for the most valuable thing from him, and then he was given the holy name of the Lord. Akiñcana means one who has nothing to give materially. A factual devotee or the mahātmā does not give anything material to anyone because he has already left all material assets. He can, however, deliver the supreme asset, namely the Personality of Godhead, because He is the only property of a factual devotee. The touchstone of Sanātana Gosvāmī which was thrown in the rubbish was not the property of the Gosvāmī, otherwise it would not have been kept in such a place. This specific example is given for the neophyte devotees just to convince them that material hankerings and spiritual advancement go ill together. Unless one is able to see everything as spiritual in relation with the Supreme Lord, one must always distinguish between spirit and matter. A spiritual master like Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī, although personally able to see everything as spiritual, set this example for us only because we have no such spiritual vision. Advancement of material vision or material civilization is a great stumbling block for spiritual advancement. Such material advancement entangles the living being in the bondage of a material body followed by all sorts of material miseries. Such material advancement is called anartha or things not wanted. Actually this is so. In the present context of material advancement one uses lipstick at a cost of fifty cents and there are so many unwanted things which are all products of the material conception of life. By diverting attention to so many unwanted things, human energy is spoiled without achievement of spiritual realization, the prime necessity of human life. The attempt to reach the moon is another example of spoiling energy because even if the moon is reached, the problems of life will not be solved. The devotees of the Lord are called akiñcanas because they have practically no material assets. Such material assets are all products of the three modes of material nature. They foil spiritual energy, and thus the less we possess such products of material nature, the more we have a good chance for spiritual progress.", + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead has no direct connection with material activities. All His acts and deeds, which are exhibited even in this material world, are spiritual and without affection of the modes of material nature. In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says that all His acts, even His appearence and disappearence in and out of the material world, are all transcendental, and one who knows this perfectly shall not take his birth again in this material world, but he will go back to Godhead.", + "The material disease is due to hankering after lording it over material nature. This hankering is due to an interaction of the three modes of nature, and both the Lord and the devotees have no attachment for such false enjoyment. Therefore, the Lord as well as the devotees are called nivṛtta-guṇa-vṛtti. The perfect nivṛtta-guṇa-vṛtti is the Supreme Lord because He never becomes attracted by the modes of material nature, whereas the living beings have such a tendency. Some of them are entrapped by the illusory attraction of material nature.", + "Because the Lord is the property of the devotees and the devotees are the property of the Lord, reciprocally the devotees are certainly transcendental to the modes of material nature. That is a natural conclusion. Such unalloyed devotees are distinct from the mixed devotees who approach the Lord for mitigation of miseries and poverty, inquisitiveness and speculation. The unalloyed devotees and the Lord are transcendentally attached to one another. For others, the Lord has nothing to reciprocate, and therefore He is called ātmārāma, self-satisfied. Self-satisfied as He is, He is the master of all monists who seek to merge into the existence of the Lord. Such monists merge within the personal effulgence of the Lord called the brahmajyoti, but the devotees enter into the transcendental pastimes of the Lord, which are never to he misunderstood as material." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/28.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/28.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..855c14a9 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/28.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 28, + "reference": "SB 1.8.28", + "devanagari": "मन्ये त्वां कालम् ईशानम् अनादिनिधनं विभुम्\nसमं चरन्तं सर्वत्र भूतानां यन्मिथः कलिः", + "transliteration": "manye tvāṁ kālam īśānam\nanādi-nidhanaṁ vibhum\nsamaṁ carantaṁ sarvatra\nbhūtānāṁ yan mithaḥ kaliḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "manye", + "meanings": [ + "I consider it" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvām", + "meanings": [ + "Your Lordship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kālam", + "meanings": [ + "the eternal time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśānam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anādi-nidhanam", + "meanings": [ + "without beginning and end" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhum", + "meanings": [ + "all-pervading" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samam", + "meanings": [ + "equally merciful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "carantam", + "meanings": [ + "distributing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvatra", + "meanings": [ + "everywhere" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the living beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat mithaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by intercourse" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaliḥ", + "meanings": [ + "dissension." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My Lord, I consider Your Lordship to be eternal time, the supreme controller, without beginning and end, the all-pervasive one.

Eternal time is the witness of all our actions good and bad, and thus resultant reactions are destined by Him. It is no use saying that we do not know why and for what we are suffering. We may forget the misdeed for which we may suffer at this present moment, but we must remember that Paramātmā is our constant companion, and therefore He knows everything, past, present, and future. And because the Paramātmā feature of Lord Kṛṣṇa destines all actions and reactions, He is the supreme controller also. Without His sanction not a blade of grass can move. The living beings are given as much freedom as they deserve, and misuse of that freedom is the cause of suffering. The devotees of the Lord do not misuse their freedom, and therefore they are the good sons of the Lord. Others, who misuse freedom, are put into miseries destined by the eternal kāla. The kāla offers the conditioned souls both happiness and miseries. It is all predestined by eternal time. As we have miseries uncalled-for, so we may have happiness also without being asked, for they are all predestined by kāla. No one is therefore either an enemy or friend of the Lord.

Darkness and light are two opposite conceptions, but this does not mean that the sun is partial in distributing its rays. The sun rays are open to everyone, but the capacities of the receptacles differ. Foolish people think that devotional service is flattering the Lord to get special mercy. Factually the pure devotees who are engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord are not a mercantile community. A mercantile house renders service to someone in exchange of values.

Despite such apparent manifestation of partiality, His mercy is equally distributed. In the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra all persons who died in the fight before the presence of the Lord got salvation without the necessary qualifications because death before the presence of the Lord purifies the passing soul from the effects of all sins, and therefore the dying man gets a place somewhere in the transcendental abode. Somehow or other if someone puts himself open in the sun rays, he is sure to get the requisite benefit both by heat and ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the conclusion is that the Lord is never partial.

The Supreme Lord is the Supreme in all circumstances, as already explained. Here is a specific example of the Lord's being the Supreme and at the same time a plaything in the presence of His pure devotee. The Lord's pure devotee renders service unto the Lord out of unalloyed love only, and while discharging such devotional service the pure devotee forgets the position of the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord also accepts the loving service of His devotees more relishably when the service is rendered spontaneously out of pure affection without anything of reverential admiration. Generally the Lord is worshiped by the devotees in reverential attitude, but the Lord is meticulously pleased when the devotee, out of pure affection and love, considers the Lord to be less important than himself. The Lord's pastimes in the original abode of Goloka Vṛndāvana are exchanged in that spirit. The friends of Kṛṣṇa consider Him one of them. They do not consider Him to be of reverential importance. The parents of the Lord (who are all pure devotees) consider Him a child only. The Lord accepts chastisements of the parents more cheerfully than the prayers of the Vedic hymns. Similarly, He accepts the reproaches of His fiancees more palatably than the Vedic hymns. Lord Kṛṣṇa, when He was present in this material world to manifest His eternal pastimes in the transcendental realm of Goloka Vṛndāvana for an attraction of the people in general, displayed a unique picture of subordination before His foster mother Yaśodā. The Lord, in His natural childish playful activities, used to spoil the stocked butter of mother Yaśodā by breaking the pots and distributing the contents to His friends and playmates, including the celebrated monkeys of Vṛndāvana who took advantage of the Lord's munificence. Mother Yaśodā saw this, and out of her pure love she wanted to make a show of punishment for her transcendental child. She took a rope and threatened the Lord that she would tie Him up, as is generally done in the ordinary household. Seeing the rope in the hands of mother Yaśodā, the Lord bowed down His head and began to weep just like a child, and tears rolled down His cheeks, washing off the black ointment smeared about His beautiful eyes. This picture of the Lord is adored by Kuntīdevī because she is conscious of the Lord's supreme position. He is feared often by fear personified, yet He is afraid of His mother, who wanted to punish Him just in an ordinary manner. Kuntī was conscious of the exalted position of Kṛṣṇa, whereas Yaśodā was not. Therefore Yaśodā's position was more exalted than Kuntī's. Mother Yaśodā got the Lord as her child, and the Lord made her forget altogether that her child was the Lord Himself. If mother Yaśodā would have been conscious of the exalted position of the Lord, she would certainly have hesitated to punish the Lord. But she was made to forget this situation because the Lord wanted to make a complete gesture of childishness before the affectionate Yaśodā. This exchange of love between the mother and the son was performed in a natural way, and Kuntī, remembering the scene, was bewildered, and she could do nothing but praise the transcendental filial love. Indirectly Mother Yaśodā is praised for her unique position of love, for she could control even the all-powerful Lord as her beloved child." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4e3558a6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 1.8.32", + "devanagari": "केचिद् आहुर् अजं जातं पुण्यश्लोकस्य कीर्तये\nयदोः प्रियस्यान्ववाये मलयस्येव चन्दनम्", + "transliteration": "kecid āhur ajaṁ jātaṁ\npuṇya-ślokasya kīrtaye\nyadoḥ priyasyānvavāye\nmalayasyeva candanam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kecit", + "meanings": [ + "someone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "says" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajam", + "meanings": [ + "the unborn" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jātam", + "meanings": [ + "being born" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṇya-ślokasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the great pious king" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kīrtaye", + "meanings": [ + "for glorifying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of King Yadu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the dear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvavāye", + "meanings": [ + "in the family of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "malayasya", + "meanings": [ + "Malaya hills" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "candanam", + "meanings": [ + "sandalwood." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Some say that the Unborn is born for the glorification of pious kings, and others say that He is born to please King Yadu, one of Your dearest devotees.

That is also declared in the Bhagavad-gītā. He appears by His own internal potency to reestablish the principles of religion and to protect the pious and to annihilate the impious. That is the mission of the appearance of the Unborn. Still, it is said that the Lord is there to glorify the pious King Yudhiṣṭhira. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa certainly wanted to establish the kingdom of the Pāṇḍavas for the good of all in the world. When there is a pious king ruling over the world, the people are happy. When the ruler is impious, the people are unhappy. In the age of Kali in most cases the rulers are impious, and therefore the citizens are also continuously unhappy. But in the case of democracy, the impious citizens themselves send their representative to rule over them, and therefore they cannot blame anyone for their unhappiness. Mahārāja Nala was also celebrated as a great pious king, but he had no connection with Lord Kṛṣṇa. Therefore Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira is meant here to be glorified by Lord Kṛṣṇa. He had also glorified King Yadu, having taken His birth in the family. He is known as Yādava, Yaduvīra, Yadunandana, etc., although the Lord is always independent of such obligation. It is just like the sandalwood that grows in the Malaya hills. Trees can grow anywhere and everywhere, yet because the sandalwood trees grow mostly in the area of the Malaya hills, the name sandalwood and the Malaya hills are interrelated. Therefore, the conclusion is that the Lord is ever unborn like the sun, and yet He appears as the sun rises on the eastern horizon.

Nārāyaṇa, as Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, first of all entered the material universe. Without spiritual contact, matter cannot create. This principle was followed from the very beginning of the creation. The Supreme Spirit entered the universe, and the first living being, Brahmā, was born on a lotus flower grown out of the transcendental abdomen of Viṣṇu. Viṣṇu is therefore known as Padmanabha. Brahmā is known as ātma-bhū because he was begotten directly from the father without any contact of mother Lakṣmījī. Lakṣmījī was present just before Nārāyaṇa, engaged in the service of the Lord, and still, without contact with Lakṣmījī, Nārāyaṇa begot Brahmā. That is the omnipotency of the Lord. One who foolishly considers Nārāyaṇa like other living beings should take a lesson from this. Nārāyaṇa is not an ordinary living being. He is the Personality of Godhead Himself, and He has all the potencies of all the senses in all parts of His transcendental body. An ordinary living being begets a child by the intercourse of sex, and he has no other means to beget a child other than the one designed for him. But Nārāyaṇa, being omnipotent, is not bound to any condition of energy. He is complete and independent to do anything and everything by His various potencies, very easily and perfectly. Brahmā is therefore directly the son of the father and was not put into the womb of a mother. Therefore he is known as ātma-bhū. This Brahmā is in charge of further creations in the universe, secondarily reflected by the potency of the Omnipotent. Within the halo of the universe there is a transcendental planet known as Śvetadvīpa, which is the abode of the Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, the Paramātmā feature of the Supreme Lord. When ever there is trouble in the universe that cannot be solved by the administrative demigods, they approach Brahmājī for a solution, and if it is not to be solved even by Brahmājī then Brahmājī consults and prays to the Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu for an incarnation and solution to the problems. Such a problem arose when Kaṁsa and others were ruling over the earth and the earth became too much overburdened by the misdeeds of the asuras. Brahmājī, along with other demigods, prayed at the shore of the Kṣīrodaka Ocean, and they were advised of the descent of Kṛṣṇa as the son of Vasudeva and Devakī.

In order to see Him, the present vision has to be changed by developing a different condition of life full of spontaneous love of Godhead. When Śrī Kṛṣṇa was personally present on the face of the globe, not everyone could see Him as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Materialists like Rāvaṇa, Hiraṇyakaśipu, Kaṁsa, Jarāsandha, Śiśupāla, etc., were highly qualified personalities by acquisition of material assets, but they were unable to appreciate the presence of the Lord. Therefore, even though the Lord may be present before our eyes, it is not possible to see Him unless we have the necessary vision. This necessary qualification is developed by the process of devotional service only, beginning with hearing about the Lord from the right sources. The Bhagavad-gītā is one of the popular literatures which is generally heard, chanted, repeated, etc., by the people in general, but in spite of such hearing, etc., sometimes it is experienced that the performer of such devotional service does not see the Lord eye to eye. The reason is that the first item, śravaṇa, is very important. If hearing is from the right sources, it acts very quickly. Generally people hear from unauthorized persons. Such unauthorized persons may be very learned by academic qualifications, but because they do not follow the principles of devotional service, hearing from them becomes a sheer waste of time. Sometimes the texts are interpreted fashionably to suit their own purposes. Therefore, first one should select a competent and bona fide speaker and then hear from him. When the hearing process is perfect and complete, the other processes become automatically perfect in their own way.", + "There are different transcendental activities of the Lord, and each and every one of them is competent to bestow the desired result, provided the hearing process is perfect. In the Bhāgavatam the activities of the Lord begin from His dealings with the Pāṇḍavas. There are many other pastimes of the Lord in connection with His dealings with the asuras and others. And in the Tenth Canto the sublime dealing with His conjugal associates the gopīs, as well as with His married wives at Dvārakā, are mentioned. Since the Lord is absolute, there is no difference in the transcendental nature of each and every dealing of the Lord. But sometimes people, in an unauthorized hearing process, take more interest in hearing about His dealings with the gopīs. Such an inclination indicates the lusty feelings of the hearer, so a bona fide speaker of the dealings of the Lord never indulges in such hearings. One must hear about the Lord from the very beginning, as in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or any other scriptures, and that will help the hearer attain perfection by progressive development. One should not, therefore, consider that His dealings with the Pāṇḍavas are less important than His dealings with the gopīs. We must always remember that the Lord is always transcendental to all mundane attachment. In all the above-mentioned dealings of the Lord, He is the hero in all circumstances, and hearing about Him or about His devotees or combatants is conducive to spiritual life. It is said that the Vedas and Purāṇas, etc., are all made to revive our lost relation with Him. Hearing of all these scriptures is essential." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..175d6eea --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 1.8.37", + "devanagari": "अप्य् अद्य नस्त्वं स्वकृतेहित प्रभो जिहाससि स्वित्सुहृदो ऽनुजीविनः\nयेषां न चान्यद्भवतः पदाम्बुजात्परायणं राजसु योजितां हसाम्", + "transliteration": "apy adya nas tvaṁ sva-kṛtehita prabho\njihāsasi svit suhṛdo 'nujīvinaḥ\nyeṣāṁ na cānyad bhavataḥ padāmbujāt\nparāyaṇaṁ rājasu yojitāṁ hasām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "if" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adya", + "meanings": [ + "today" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "us" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-kṛta", + "meanings": [ + "self-executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īhita", + "meanings": [ + "all duties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabho", + "meanings": [ + "O my Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jihāsasi", + "meanings": [ + "giving up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svit", + "meanings": [ + "possibly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suhṛdaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "intimate friends" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anujīvinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "living at the mercy of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yeṣām", + "meanings": [ + "of whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyat", + "meanings": [ + "anyone else" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pada-ambujāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāyaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "dependent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājasu", + "meanings": [ + "unto the kings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yojitām", + "meanings": [ + "engaged in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hasām", + "meanings": [ + "enmity." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O my Lord, You have executed all duties Yourself.

In the material world, to be dependent on the mercy of someone else is the utmost sign of misfortune, but in the case of our transcendental relation with the Lord, it is the most fortunate case when we can live completely dependent on Him. The material disease is due to thinking of becoming independent of everything. But the cruel material nature does not allow us to become independent. The false attempt to become independent of the stringent laws of nature is known as material advancement of experimental knowledge. The whole material world is moving on this false attempt of becoming independent of the laws of nature. Beginning from Rāvaṇa, who wanted to prepare a direct staircase to the planets of heaven, down to the present age, they are trying to overcome the laws of nature. They are trying now to approach distant planetary systems by electronic mechanical power. But the highest goal of human civilization is to work hard under the guidance of the Lord and become completely dependent on Him. The highest achievement of perfect civilization is to work with valor but at the same time depend completely on the Lord. The Pāṇḍavas were the ideal executors of this standard of civilization. Undoubtedly they were completely dependent on the good will of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, but they were not idle parasites of the Lord. They were all highly qualified both by personal character and physical activities. Still they always looked for the mercy of the Lord because they knew that every living being is dependent by constitutional position. The perfection of life is, therefore, to become dependent on the will of the Lord, instead of becoming falsely independent in the material world. Those who try to become falsely independent of the Lord are called anātha, or without any guardian, whereas those who are completely dependent on the will of the Lord are called sanātha, or those having someone to protect them. Therefore we must try to be sanātha so that we can always be protected from the unfavorable condition of material existence. By the deluding power of the external material nature we forget that the material condition of life is the most undesirable perplexity. The Bhagavad-gītā therefore directs us (7.19) that after many, many births one fortunate person becomes aware of the fact that Vāsudeva is all in all and that the best way of leading one's life is to surrender unto Him completely. That is the sign of a mahātmā. All the members of the Pāṇḍava family were mahātmās in household life. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was the head of these mahātmās, and Queen Kuntīdevī was the mother. The lessons of the Bhagavad-gītā and all the Purāṇas, specifically the Bhāgavata Purāṇa, are therefore inevitably connected with the history of the Pāṇḍava mahātmās. For them, separation from the Lord was just like the separation of a fish from water. Śrīmatī Kuntīdevī, therefore, felt such separation like a thunderbolt, and the whole prayer of the Queen is to try to persuade the Lord to stay with them. After the Battle of Kurukṣetra, although the inimical kings were killed, their sons and grandsons were still there to deal with the Pāṇḍavas. It is not only the Pāṇḍavas who were put into the condition of enmity, but all of us are always in such a condition, and the best way of living is to become completely dependent on the will of the Lord and thereby overcome all difficulties of material existence." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/38.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/38.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a71d0acc --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/38.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 38, + "reference": "SB 1.8.38", + "devanagari": "के वयं नामरूपाभ्यां यदुभिः सह पाण्डवाः\nभवतो ऽदर्शनं यर्हि हृषीकाणाम् इवेशितुः", + "transliteration": "ke vayaṁ nāma-rūpābhyāṁ\nyadubhiḥ saha pāṇḍavāḥ\nbhavato 'darśanaṁ yarhi\nhṛṣīkāṇām iveśituḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ke", + "meanings": [ + "who are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayam", + "meanings": [ + "we" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma-rūpābhyām", + "meanings": [ + "without fame and ability" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the Yadus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saha", + "meanings": [ + "along with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāṇḍavāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and the Pāṇḍavas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adarśanam", + "meanings": [ + "absence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yarhi", + "meanings": [ + "as if" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛṣīkāṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśituḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the living being." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As the name and fame of a particular body is finished with the disappearance of the living spirit, similarly if You do not look upon us, all our fame and activities, along with the Pāṇḍavas and Yadus, will end at once.", + "purport": [ + "Kuntīdevī is quite aware that the existence of the Pāṇḍavas is due to Śrī Kṛṣṇa only.

By doing so He causes the devotee to become completely dependent on Him and thus clears up the path for his going back to Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/42.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/42.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..251fe05e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/08/verses/42.json @@ -0,0 +1,95 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 42, + "reference": "SB 1.8.42", + "devanagari": "त्वयि मे ऽनन्यविषया मतिर्मधुपते ऽसकृत्\nरतिम् उद्वहताद् अद्धा गंगेवौघम् उदन्वति", + "transliteration": "tvayi me 'nanya-viṣayā\nmatir madhu-pate 'sakṛt\nratim udvahatād addhā\ngaṅgevaugham udanvati", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tvayi", + "meanings": [ + "unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananya-viṣayā", + "meanings": [ + "unalloyed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "matiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attention" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madhu-pate", + "meanings": [ + "O Lord of Madhu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asakṛt", + "meanings": [ + "continually" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ratim", + "meanings": [ + "attraction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvahatāt", + "meanings": [ + "may overflow" + ] + }, + { + "word": "addhā", + "meanings": [ + "directly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gaṅgā", + "meanings": [ + "the Ganges" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ogham", + "meanings": [ + "flows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udanvati", + "meanings": [ + "down to the seas." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Lord of Madhu, as the Ganges forever flows to the sea, without hindrance, let my attraction be constantly drawn unto You without being diverted to anyone else.", + "purport": [ + "Perfection of pure devotional service is attained when all attention is diverted towards the transcendental loving service of the Lord. To cut off the tie of all other affections does not mean complete negation of the finer elements, like affection for someone else. This is not possible.

The symptoms of life, namely desire, anger, hankerings, feelings of attraction, etc., cannot be annihilated. Only the objective has to be changed. Desire cannot be changed, but in devotional service the desire is changed only for the service of the Lord in place of desire for sense gratification. The so-called affection for family, society, country, etc., are different phases of sense gratification. When this desire is changed for the satisfaction of the Lord, it is called devotional service.", + "In the Bhagavad-gītā we can see that Arjuna desired not to fight with his brothers and relations just to satisfy his own personal desires. But when he heard the message of the Lord, Śrīmad-Bhagavad-gītā, he changed his decision and served the Lord. And for his doing so, he became a famous devotee of the Lord, for it is declared in all the scriptures that Arjuna attained spiritual perfection by devotional service to the Lord in friendship. The fighting was there, the friendship was there, Arjuna was there, and Kṛṣṇa was there, but Arjuna became a different person by devotional service. Therefore, the prayers of Kuntī also indicate the same categorical changes in activities. Śrīmatī Kuntī wanted to serve the Lord without diversion, and that was her prayer. This unalloyed devotion is the ultimate goal of life. Our attention is usually diverted in the service of something which is nongodly or not in the program of the Lord. When the program is changed into the service of the Lord, that is to say when the senses are purified in relation with the service of the Lord, it is called pure unalloyed devotional service. Śrīmatī Kuntīdevī wanted that perfection and prayed for it from the Lord.", + "Her affection for the Pāṇḍavas and the Vṛṣṇis is not out of the range of devotional service because service of the Lord and the service of the devotees are identical. Sometimes service of the devotee is more valuable than the service of the Lord. But here the affection of Kuntīdevī for the Pāṇḍavas and the Vṛṣṇis was due to family relation. This tie of affection in terms of material relation is the relation of māyā because the relations of the body or the mind are due to the influence of the external energy. Relations of the soul, established in relation with the Supreme Soul, are factual relations. When Kuntīdevī wanted to cut off the family relation, she meant to cut off the relation of the skin. The skin relation is the cause of material bondage, but the relation of the soul is the cause of freedom. This relation of the soul to the soul can be established by the via medium of the relation with the Supersoul. Seeing in the darkness is not seeing. But seeing by the light of the sun means to see the sun and everything else which was unseen in the darkness.

In this age of quarrel and hypocrisy there is no possibility of performing the yajñas perfectly for want of expert brāhmaṇas who are able to conduct such yajñas. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, therefore, gives a hint to performing sacrifices in the age of Kali. In the Kali-yuga the only sacrifice recommended is the performance of Harināma yajña inaugurated by Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. But one should not indulge in animal killing and counteract it by performing the Harināma yajña. Those who are devotees of the Lord never kill an animal for self-interest, and (as the Lord ordered Arjuna) they do not refrain from performing the duty of a kṣatriya.

Like Nārada Muni, Parvata Muni also used to visit the royal assembly in the heaven of King Indra. As a Gandharva, sometimes he visited the royal assembly of Kuvera, one of the important demigods.

In his previous life he was the son of a maidservant, but by good association of pure devotees he became enlightened in devotional service, and in the next lift; he became a perfect man comparable with himself only. In the Mahābhārata his name is mentioned in many places. He is the principal devarṣi, or the chief sage amongst the demigods. He is the son and disciple of Brahmājī, and from him the disciplic succession in the line of Brahmā has been spread. He initiated Prahlāda Mahārāja, Dhruva Mahārāja and many celebrated devotees of the Lord. He initiated even Vyāsadeva, the author of the Vedic literatures, and from Vyāsadeva, Madhvācārya was initiated, and thus the Madhva-sampradāya, in which the Gauḍīya-sampradāya is also included, has spread all over the universe. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu belonged to this Madhva-sampradāya; therefore Brahmājī, Nārada, Vyāsa, down to Madhva, Caitanya and the Gosvāmīs all belonged to the same line of disciplic succession. Nāradajī has instructed many kings from time immemorial.

He acted as the priest in many religious functions of the Pāṇḍavas (saṁskāra), but also each of the Pāṇḍavas was attended by him at the betrothal of Draupadī. He was present even during the exile of the Pāṇḍavas and used to advise them in circumstances when they were perplexed. He instructed them how to live incognito for one year, and his instructions were strictly followed by the Pāṇḍavas during that time. His name is mentioned also when the general funeral ceremony was performed after the Battle of Kurukṣetra. In the Anuṣāsana Parva of Mahābhārata (Ch. 127.15-16) he gave religious instructions very elaborately to Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. He was actually the right type of priest of a householder, for he could guide the Pāṇḍavas on the right path of religion. A priest is meant for guiding the householder progressively in the right path of āśrama-dharma, or the occupational duty of a particular caste. There is practically no difference between the family priest and the spiritual master. The sages, saints and brāhmaṇas were especially meant for such functions.", + "Bādarāyaṇa (Vyāsadeva). He is known as Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa-dvaipāyana, Dvaipāyana, Satyavatīsuta, Pārāśarya, Parāśarātmaja, Bādarāyaṇa, Vedavyāsa, etc. He was the son of Mahāmuni Parāśara in the womb of Satyavatī prior to her betrothal with Mahārāja Śantanu, the father of the great general Grandfather Bhīṣmadeva. He is a powerful incarnation of Nārāyaṇa, and he broadcasts the Vedic wisdom to the world. As such, Vyāsadeva is offered respects before chanting the Vedic literature, especially the Purāṇas. Śukadeva Gosvāmī was his son, and ṛṣis like Vaiśampāyana, etc., were his disciples for different branches of the Vedas. He is the author of the great epic Mahābhārata and the great transcendental literature Bhāgavatam. The Brahma-sūtras or the Vedānta-sūtras or Bādarāyaṇa-sūtras are compiled by him. Amongst sages he is the most respected author by dint of severe penances. When he wanted to record the great epic Mahābhārata for the welfare of all people in the age of Kali, he was feeling the necessity of a powerful writer who could take up his dictation. By the order of Brahmājī, Śrī Gaṇeśajī took up the charge of noting down the dictation on the condition that Vyāsadeva would not stop dictation for a moment. The Mahābhārata was thus compiled by the joint endeavor of Vyāsa and Gaṇeśa.", + "By the order of his mother Satyavatī, who was later married to Mahārāja Śantanu, and by the request of Bhīṣmadeva, the eldest son of Mahārāja Śantanu by his first wife, the Ganges, he begot three brilliant sons whose names are Dhṛtarāṣṭra, Pāṇḍu and Vidura. The Mahābhārata was compiled by Vyāsadeva after the Battle of Kurukṣetra and after the death of all the heroes of Mahābhārata.

It is learned that this ṛṣi, while taking bath in the Ganges, happened to meet Ghṛtacī, one of the beautiful society girls of heaven, and thus he discharged semina, which was kept and preserved in an earthen pot and from which Droṇa was born. So Droṇācārya is the son of Bharadvāja Muni. Others say that Bharadvāja, the father of Droṇa, is a different person from Maharṣi Bharadvāja. He was a great devotee of Brahmā. Once he approached Droṇācārya and requested him to stop the Battle of Kurukṣetra.", + "Paraśurāma or Reṇukāsuta. He is the son of Maharṣi Jamadagni and Śrīmatī Reṇukā. Thus he is also known as Reṇukāsuta. He is one of the powerful incarnations of God, and he killed the kṣatriya community as a whole twenty-one times. With the blood of the kṣatriyas he pleased the souls of his forefathers. Later on he underwent severe penances at the Mahendra Parvata. After taking the whole earth from the kṣatriyas, he gave it in charity to Kaśyapa Muni. Paraśurāma instructed the Dhanur-veda or the science of fighting to Droṇācārya because he happened to be a brāhmaṇa. He was present during the coronation of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, and he celebrated the function along with other great ṛṣis.", + "Paraśurāma is so old that he met both Rāma and Kṛṣṇa at different times. He fought with Rāma, but he accepted Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He also praised Arjuna when he saw him with Kṛṣṇa. When Bhīṣma refused to marry Ambā, who wanted him to become her husband, Ambā met Paraśurāma, and by her request only he asked Bhīṣmadeva to accept her as his wife. Bhīṣma refused to obey his order, although he was one of the spiritual masters of Bhīṣmadeva. He fought with Bhīṣmadeva when he neglected his warning. Both of them fought very severely, and at last Paraśurāma was pleased with Bhīṣma and gave him the benediction of becoming the greatest fighter in the world.", + "Vasiṣṭha. The great celebrated sage among the brāhmaṇas, well known as the Brahmarṣi Vasiṣṭhadeva. He is a prominent figure both in the Rāmāyaṇa and Mahābhārata periods. He celebrated the coronation ceremony of the Personality of Godhead Śrī Rāma. He was present also on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra. He could approach all the higher and lower planets, and his name is also connected with the history of Hiraṇyakaśipu. There was a great tension between him and Viśvāmitra, who wanted his kāmadhenu. Vasiṣṭha Muni refused to spare his kāmadhenu, and for this Viśvāmitra killed his one hundred sons. As a perfect brāhmaṇa he tolerated all the taunts of Viśvāmitra. Once he tried to commit suicide on account of Viśvāmitra's torture, but all his attempts were unsuccessful. He jumped from a hill, but the stones on which he fell became a stack of cotton, and thus he was saved. He jumped into the ocean, but the waves washed him ashore. He jumped in the river, but the river also washed him ashore. Thus all his suicide attempts were unsuccessful. He is also one of the seven ṛṣis and husband of Arundhatī, the famous star.", + "Indrapramada. Another celebrated ṛṣi.", + "Trita. One of the three sons of Prajāpati Gautama. He was the third son, and his other two brothers were known as Ekat and Dvita. All the brothers were great sages and strict followers of the principles of religion.

He was an organizing worker of many sacrifices, and as one of the great sages he also came to show respect to Bhīṣmajī at his deathbed. He was one of the seven sages in the Varuṇaloka. He hailed from the Western countries of the world. As such, most probably he belonged to the European countries. At that time the whole world was under one Vedic culture.", + "Gṛtsamada.

He used to visit the royal assembly of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, and he also visited the place where Bhīṣmadeva breathed his last. Sometimes he explained the glories of Lord Śiva before Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. He was the son of Vitahavya, and he resembled in features the body of Indra.

He lived a life of celibacy and was powerful in every respect.", + "Asita. There was a king of the same name, but herein the Asita mentioned is the Asita Devala Ṛṣi, a great powerful sage of the time. He explained to his father 1,500,000 verses from the Mahābhārata. He was one of the members in the snake sacrifice of Mahārāja Janamejaya. He was also present during the coronation ceremony of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira along with other great ṛṣis.

This wheel which is accepted by the Personality of Godhead (Viṣṇu or Kṛṣṇa) as His personal weapon is the most powerful weapon, greater than the brahmāstras or similar other disastrous weapons.

Agnideva presented this weapon to Kṛṣṇa in the same way that Rukmiṇī was given by Mahārāja Rukma to the Lord. The Lord accepts such presentations from His devotees, even though such presentations are eternally His property. There is an elaborate description of this weapon in the Ādi-parva of the Mahābhārata. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa used this weapon to kill Śiśupāla, a rival of the Lord. He also killed Śālva by this weapon, and sometimes He wanted His friend Arjuna to use it to kill his enemies. (Mahā.

As a bona fide disciple of Śrī Vyāsadeva, he inquired from his father very extensively about religious principles and spiritual values, and his great father also satisfied him by teaching him the yoga system by which one can attain the spiritual kingdom, the difference between fruitive work and empiric knowledge, the ways and means of attaining spiritual realization, the four āśramas, namely the student life, the householder's life, the retired life and the renounced life, the sublime position of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the process of seeing Him eye to eye, the bona fide candidate for receiving knowledge, the consideration of the five elements, the unique position of intelligence, the consciousness of the material nature and the living entity, the symptoms of the self-realized soul, the working principles of the material body, the symptoms of the influential modes of nature, the tree of perpetual desire, and psychic activities.

The very same system is accepted universally as truth, but only the false arguer speaks against this system. For example, modern spacecraft fly in the sky, and they say that they travel to the other side of the moon, and men believe these stories blindly because they have accepted the modern scientists as authorities.

All other ācāryas have also confirmed this statement, and thus there is no chance of not accepting Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa as the original Personality of Godhead. Bhīṣmadeva says that He is the first Nārāyaṇa. This is also confirmed by Brahmājī in the Bhāgavatam (10.14.14). Kṛṣṇa is the first Nārāyaṇa. In the spiritual world (Vaikuṇṭhas) there are unlimited numbers of Nārāyaṇas, who are all the same Personality of Godhead and are considered to be the plenary expansions of the original Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa. The first form of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa first expands Himself as the form of Baladeva, and Baladeva expands in so many other forms, such as Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna, Aniruddha, Vāsudeva, Nārāyaṇa, Puruṣa, Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, etc. All these expansions are one and the same Viṣṇu-tattva, and Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original source of all the plenary expansions. He is, therefore, the direct Personality of Godhead. He is the creator of the material world, and He is the predominating Deity known as Nārāyaṇa in all the Vaikuṇṭha planets. Therefore, His movements amongst human beings is another sort of bewilderment.

As the Lord has innumerable expansions of His plenary form, similarly there are innumerable pure devotees of the Lord who are engaged in the exchange of service of different humors. Ordinarily there are twelve great devotees of the Lord, namely Brahmā, Nārada, Śiva, Kumāra, Kapila, Manu, Prahlāda, Bhīṣma, Janaka, Śukadeva Gosvāmī, Bali Mahārāja and Yamarāja. Bhīṣmadeva, although one of them, has mentioned only three important names of the twelve who know the glories of the Lord. According to Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur, one of the great ācāryas in the modern age, anubhāva, or the glory of the Lord, is first appreciated by the devotee in ecstasy manifesting the symptoms of perspiring, trembling, weeping, bodily eruptions, etc., which are further enhanced by steady understanding of the glories of the Lord. Such different understandings of bhāvas are exchanged between Yaśodā and the Lord (binding the Lord by ropes) and in the chariot driving by the Lord in the exchange of love with Arjuna, etc. These glories of the Lord are exhibited in His being subordinated before His devotees, and that is another feature of the glories of the Lord. Śukadeva Gosvāmī and the Kumāras, although situated in the transcendental position, became converted by another feature of bhāva and turned into pure devotees of the Lord. Tribulations of the devotees by the Lord constitute another exchange of transcendental bhāva between the Lord and the devotees. The Lord says (Bhāg. 10), \"I put My devotee into difficulty, and thus the devotee becomes more purified in exchanging transcendental bhāva with Me.\" Placing the devotee into material troubles necessitates delivering him from the illusory material relations. The material relations are based on reciprocation of material enjoyment, which depends mainly on material resources. Therefore, when material resources are withdrawn by the Lord, the devotee is cent percent attracted towards transcendental loving service of the Lord. Thus the Lord snatches the fallen soul from the mire of material existence. Tribulations offered by the Lord to His devotee are different from the tribulations resulting from vicious action. All these glories of the Lord are especially known to the great mahājanas like Brahmā, Śiva, Nārada, Kapila, Kumāra and Bhīṣma, as mentioned above, and one is able to grasp it by their grace." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d7a52b51 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 1.9.20", + "devanagari": "यं मन्यसे मातुलेयं प्रियं मित्रं सुहृत्तमम्\nअकरोः सचिवं दूतं सौहृदाद् अथ सारथिम्", + "transliteration": "yaṁ manyase mātuleyaṁ\npriyaṁ mitraṁ suhṛttamam\nakaroḥ sacivaṁ dūtaṁ\nsauhṛdād atha sārathim", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yam", + "meanings": [ + "the person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manyase", + "meanings": [ + "you think" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mātuleyam", + "meanings": [ + "maternal cousin" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyam", + "meanings": [ + "very dear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mitram", + "meanings": [ + "friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suhṛttamam", + "meanings": [ + "ardent well-wisher" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akaroḥ", + "meanings": [ + "executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sacivam", + "meanings": [ + "counsel" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dūtam", + "meanings": [ + "messenger" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sauhṛdāt", + "meanings": [ + "by good will" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thereupon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sārathim", + "meanings": [ + "character." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O King, that personality whom, out of ignorance only, you thought to be your maternal cousin, your very dear friend, well-wisher, counsellor, messenger, benefactor, etc., is that very Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa.", + "purport": [ + "Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, although acting as the cousin, brother, friend, well-wisher, counsellor, messenger, benefactor, etc., of the Pāṇḍavas, was still the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

In material existence a living being has to endure the material conditions of threefold miseries, life after life, according to his fruitive work. Such material life is produced by material desires only.

A Vaiṣṇava is not puffed up, although the Lord guarantees His pure devotee entrance into His abode. Here Bhīṣmadeva says, \"as long as I do not quit this body.\" This means that the great General would quit the body by his own will; he was not being forced by the laws of nature. He was so powerful that he could stay in his body as long as he desired. He got this benediction from his father. He desired that the Lord stay before him in His four-handed Nārāyaṇa feature so that he might concentrate upon Him and thus be in trance in that meditation. Then his mind might be sanctified with thinking of the Lord. Thus he did not mind wherever he might go. A pure devotee is never very anxious to go back to the kingdom of God. He entirely depends on the good will of the Lord. He is equally satisfied even if the Lord desires him to go to hell. The only desire that a pure devotee entertains is that he may always be in rapt attention with thinking of the lotus feet of the Lord, regardless.

Yudhiṣṭhira also preferred to solve his problematic questions from Bhīṣmadeva rather than ask anyone else present there who was seemingly more learned than Bhīṣmadeva.

Self-realization is distinguished from the life of the lower animals engaged in eating, sleeping, fearing and mating. Bhīṣmadeva advised for all human beings nine qualifications: 1) not to become angry, 2) not to lie, 3) to equally distribute wealth, 4) to forgive, 5) to beget children only by one's legitimate wife, 6) to be pure in mind and hygienic in body, 7) not to be inimical toward anyone, 8) to be simple, and 9) to support servants or subordinates. One cannot be called a civilized person without acquiring the above-mentioned preliminary qualities. Besides these, the brāhmaṇas or the intelligent men, the administrative men, the mercantile community and the laborer class must acquire special qualities in terms of occupational duties mentioned in all the Vedic scriptures. For the intelligent men, controlling the senses is the most essential qualification, which is the basis of morality. Sex indulgence even with a legitimate wife must also be controlled, and thereby family control will automatically follow. An intelligent man abuses his great qualifications if he does not follow the Vedic way of life. This means he must seriously make a study of the Vedic literatures, especially of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and the Bhagavad-gītā. For learning Vedic knowledge, one must approach a person who is cent percent engaged in devotional service. He must not do things which are forbidden in the śāstras. A person cannot be a teacher if he drinks or smokes. In the modern system of education the teacher's academic qualification is taken into consideration without evaluation of his moral life. Therefore, the result of education is misuse of high intelligence in so many ways.", + "The kṣatriyas or the administrative class is especially advised to give in charity and not to accept charity in any circumstances. Modern administrators raise subscriptions for some political functions, but never give in charity to the citizens in any state function. It is just the reverse in the injunctions of the śāstras. The administrative class must be well versed in the śāstras, but must not take to the profession of teachers. The administrators should never pretend to become nonviolent and thereby go to hell. When Arjuna wanted to become a nonviolent coward in the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra, he was severely chastised by Lord Kṛṣṇa. The Lord degraded Arjuna at that time to the status of an uncivilized man for his avowed acceptance of the cult of nonviolence. The administrative class must be personally trained in the military education. Cowards should not be elevated to the presidential throne by dint of numerical votes only. The monarchs were all chivalrous personalities, and therefore monarchy should be maintained provided the monarch is regularly trained in the occupational duties of a king. In fighting, the king or the president should never return home without being hurt by the enemy. The so-called king of today never visits the warfield. He is very much expert in artificially encouraging the fighting strength in the hope of false national prestige. As soon as the administrative class is turned into a gang of mercantile and laborer men, the whole machinery of government becomes polluted.", + "The vaiśyas or the mercantile communities are especially advised to protect the cows. Cow protection means increasing the milk productions, namely curd and butter. Agriculture and distribution of the foodstuff are the primary duties of the mercantile community backed by education in Vedic knowledge and trained to give in charity. As the kṣatriyas were given charge of the protection of the citizens, vaiśyas were given the charge of the protection of animals. Animals are never meant to be killed. Killing of animals is a symptom of barbarian society. For a human being, agricultural produce, fruits and milk are sufficient and compatible foodstuffs. The human society should give more attention to animal protection. The productive energy of the laborer is misused when he is occupied by industrial enterprises. Industry of various types cannot produce the essential needs of man, namely rice, wheat, grains, milk, fruits and vegetables. The production of machines and machine tools increases the artificial living fashion of a class of vested interests and keeps thousands of men in starvation and unrest. This should not be the standard of civilization.", + "The śūdra class is less intelligent, and they have no independence. They are meant for rendering sincere service to the three higher sections of the society. The śūdra class can attain all comforts of life simply by rendering service to the higher classes. It is especially enjoined that a śūdra should never bank money. As soon as the śūdras accumulate wealth, it will be misused for sinful activities in wine, women and gambling. Wine, women and gambling indicate that the population is degraded into less than śūdra quality. The higher castes should always look after the maintenance of the śūdras, and they should provide them with old and used garments. A śūdra should not leave his master when the master is old and invalid, and the master should keep the servants satisfied in all respects. The śūdras must first of all be satisfied by sumptuous food and clothing before any sacrifice is performed. In this age so many functions are held by spending millions, but the poor laborer is not sumptuously fed or given charity, clothing, etc. The laborers are thus dissatisfied, and so they make agitation.", + "The varṇas are, so to speak, classifications of different occupations, and āśrama-dharma is gradual progress on the path of self-realization. Both are interrelated, and one is dependent on the other. The main purpose of āśrama-dharma is to awaken knowledge and detachment. The brahmacārī āśrama is the training ground for the prospective candidates. In this āśrama it is instructed that this material world is not actually the home of the living being. The conditioned souls under material bondage are prisoners of matter, and therefore self-realization is the ultimate aim of life. The whole system of āśrama-dharma is a means to detachment. One who fails to assimilate this spirit of detachment is allowed to enter into family life with the same spirit of detachment. Therefore, one who attains detachment may at once adopt the fourth order, namely, renounced, and thus live on charity only, not to accumulate wealth, but just to keep body and soul together for ultimate realization. Household life is for one who is attached, and the vānaprastha and sannyāsa orders of life are for those who are detached from material life.

A brahmacārī, or student, should perform sacrifices, a householder should give charity, and a person in the retired life or in the renounced order should practice penances and austerities. Those are the general functions of all the āśramas or orders of life on the path of self-realization. In the brahmacārī life the training is sufficiently imparted to understand that the world as property belongs to the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead. No one, therefore, can claim to be the proprietor of anything in the world. Therefore, in the life of a householder, which is a sort of license for sex enjoyment, one must give in charity for the service of the Lord. Everyone's energy is generated or borrowed from the reservoir of energy of the Lord; therefore, the resultant actions of such energy must be given to the Lord in the shape of transcendental loving service for Him. As the rivers draw water from the sea through the clouds and again go down to the sea, similarly our energy is borrowed from the supreme source, the Lord's energy, and it must return to the Lord. That is the perfection of our energy. The Lord, therefore, in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.27) says that whatever we do, whatever we undergo as penance, whatever we sacrifice, whatever we eat or whatever we give in charity must be offered to Him (the Lord). That is the way of utilizing our borrowed energy. When our energy is utilized in that way, our energy is purified from the contamination of material inebrieties, and thus we become fit for our original natural life of service to the Lord.", + "Rāja-dharma is a great science, unlike modern diplomacy for political supremacy. The kings were trained systematically to become munificent and not merely tax collectors. They were trained to perform different sacrifices only for the prosperity of the subjects. To lead the prajās to the attainment of salvation was a great duty of the king. The father, the spiritual master and the king are not to become irresponsible in the matter of leading their subjects to the path of ultimate liberation from birth, death, diseases and old age. When these primary duties are properly discharged, there is no need of government of the people, by the people. In modern days the people in general occupy the administration by the strength of manipulated votes, but they are never trained in the primary duties of the king, and that is also not possible for everyone. Under the circumstances the untrained administrators play havoc to make the subjects happy in all respects. On the other hand, these untrained administrators gradually become rogues and thieves and increase the taxation to finance a top-heavy administration that is useless for all purposes. Actually the qualified brāhmaṇas are meant to give direction to the kings for proper administration in terms of the scriptures like the Manu-saṁhitā and Dharma-śāstras of Parāśara. A typical king is the ideal of the people in general, and if the king is pious, religious, chivalrous and munificent, the citizens generally follow him. Such a king is not a lazy sensuous person living at the cost of the subjects, but alert always to kill thieves and dacoits. The pious kings were not merciful to dacoits and thieves in the name of nonsensical ahiṁsā. The thieves and dacoits were punished in an exemplary way so that in the future no one would dare commit such nuisances in an organized form. Such thieves and dacoits were never meant for administration as they are now.", + "The taxation law was simple. There was no force, no encroachment. The king had a right to take one fourth of the production made by the subject. The king had a right to claim a fourth of ones allotted wealth. One would never grudge to part with it because due to the pious king and religious harmony there was enough natural wealth, namely grains, fruits, flowers, silk, cotton, milk, jewels, minerals, etc., and therefore, no one was materially unhappy. The citizens were rich in agriculture and animal husbandry, and therefore they had enough grains, fruits and milk without any artificial needs of soaps and toilets, cinemas and bars.", + "The king had to see that the reserved energy of humanity was properly utilized. Human energy is not exactly meant for fulfilling animal propensities, but for self-realization. The whole government was specifically designed to fulfill this particular purpose. As such, the king had to select properly the cabinet ministers, but not on the strength of voting background. The ministers, the military commanders or even the ordinary soldiers were all selected by personal qualification, and the king had to supervise them properly before they were appointed to their respective posts. The king was especially vigilant to see that the tapasvīs, or persons who sacrificed everything for disseminating spiritual knowledge, were never disregarded. They knew well that the Supreme Lord Personality of Godhead never tolerates any insult to His unalloyed devotees. Such tapasvīs were trusted leaders even of the rogues and thieves, who would never disobey the orders of tapasvīs. The king would give special protection to illiterates, the helpless and widows of the state. Defense measures were arranged previous to any attack by the enemies. The taxing process was easy, and it was not meant for squandering, but was for strengthening the reserve fund. The soldiers were recruited from all parts of the world, and they were trained for special duties.", + "As far as salvation is concerned, one has to conquer the principles of lust, anger, unlawful desires, avarice and bewilderment. To get freedom from anger, one should learn how to forgive. One should not make plans in order to be free from unlawful desires. By spiritual culture one is able to conquer sleep. By tolerance only can one conquer desires and avarice. Disturbances from various diseases can be avoided by regulated diets. By self-control one can be free from false hopes, and money can be saved by avoiding undesirable association. By practice of yoga one can control hunger, and worldliness can be avoided by culturing the knowledge of impermanence. Dizziness can be conquered by rising up, and false arguments can be conquered by factual ascertainment. Talkativeness can be avoided by gravity and silence, and by prowess one can avoid fearfulness. Perfect knowledge can be obtained by self-cultivation. One must be freed from lust, avarice, anger, dreaming, etc., to attain actually the path of salvation.", + "As far as the women class are concerned, they are accepted as a power of inspiration for man. As such, women are more powerful than men. Mighty Julius Caesar was controlled by a Cleopatra. Such powerful women are controlled by shyness. Therefore, shyness is important for women. Once this control valve is loosened, women can create havoc in society by adultery. Adultery means production of unwanted children known as varṇa-saṅkara, who disturb the world.", + "The last item was taught by Bhīṣmadeva. This is the process of pleasing the Lord. We are all eternal servants of the Lord, and when we forget this essential part of our nature we are put into material conditions of life. The simple process of pleasing the Lord (for the householders especially) is to install the Deity of the Lord at home. By concentrating on the Deity, one may progressively go on with the daily routine work. Worshiping the Deity at home, serving the devotee, hearing the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, residing in a holy place and chanting the holy name of the Lord are all inexpensive items by which one can please the Lord.

He Himself descends on earth to bestow upon His pure devotees the boon of devotional service. He descends sometimes as Lord Kṛṣṇa as He is, and sometimes as Lord Caitanya. Both are leaders of the pure devotees. Pure devotees of the Lord have no desire other than the service of the Lord, and therefore they are called sātvata. The Lord is the chief amongst such sātvatas. Bhīṣmadeva. therefore, has no other desires. Unless one is purified from all sorts of material desires, the Lord does not become one's leader. Desires cannot be wiped out, but they have only to be purified. It is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā by the Lord Himself that He gives His instruction from within the heart of a pure devotee who is constantly engaged in the service of the Lord (Bg. 7.28). Such instruction is given not for any material purpose but only for going back home, back to Godhead (Bg. 10.10). For the ordinary man who wants to lord it over material nature, the Lord only sanctions and becomes a witness of activities, but He never gives the nondevotee instructions for going back to Godhead. That is the difference in dealings by the Lord to different living beings, both the devotee and the nondevotee. He is leader of all the living beings, as the king of the state rules both the prisoners and the free citizens. But His dealings are different in terms of devotee and nondevotee. Non-devotees never care to take any instruction from the Lord, and therefore the Lord is silent in their case, although He witnesses all their activities and awards them the necessary results, good or bad. The devotees are above this material goodness and badness, but they are progressive on the path of transcendence, and therefore they have no desire for anything material. The devotee also knows Śrī Kṛṣṇa as the original Nārāyaṇa because Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, by His plenary portion, appears, as the Kāranodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, the original source of all material creation. The Lord also desires the association of His pure devotees, and for them only the Lord descends on the earth and enlivens them. The Lord appears out of His own will. He is not forced by the conditions of material nature.

Arjuna is described here as the conquerer, and Kṛṣṇa is described as his intimate friend. Bhīṣmadeva on his bed of arrows after the Battle of Kurukṣetra is remembering the particular dress of Lord Kṛṣṇa which He put on as the driver of Arjuna's chariot. While fighting was going on between Arjuna and Bhīṣma, Bhīṣma's attraction was drawn by the glittering dress of Kṛṣṇa, and indirectly he admired his so-called enemy Arjuna for possessing the Lord as his friend. Arjuna was always a conquerer because the Lord was his friend. Bhīṣmadeva takes this opportunity to address the Lord as vijayasakhe (friend of Arjuna) because the Lord is pleased when He is addressed conjointly with His devotees who are related with Him in different transcendental humors. While Kṛṣṇa was the charioteer of Arjuna, sun rays glittered on the dress of the Lord, and the beautiful hue created by the reflection of such rays was never forgotten by Bhīṣmadeva. As a great fighter he was relishing the relation of Kṛṣṇa in the chivalrous humor. Transcendental relation with the Lord in any one of the different rasas (humors) is relishable by the respective devotees in the highest ecstasy. Less intelligent mundaners who want to make a show of being transcendentally related with the Lord artificially jump at once to the relation of conjugal love, imitating the damsels of Vrajadhāma. Such a cheap relation with the Lord exhibits only the base mentality of the mundaner because one who has relished conjugal humor with the Lord cannot be attached to worldly conjugal rasa, which is condemned even by mundane ethics. The eternal relation of a particular soul with the Lord is evolved. A genuine relation of the living being with the Supreme Lord can take any form out of the five principal rasas, and it does not make any difference in transcendental degree to the genuine devotee.

Thus his throwing of sharp arrows at the transcendental body of the Lord is as good as the worship of another devotee who throws soft roses upon Him.", + "It appears that Bhīṣmadeva is repenting his actions, which he committed against the person of the Lord. But factually the Lord's body was not at all pained due to His transcendental existence. His body is not matter. Both He Himself and His body are complete spiritual identity. Spirit is never pierced, burnt, dried, moistened, etc. This is vividly explained in the Bhagavad-gītā. So also it is stated in the Skanda Purāṇa. It is said there that spirit is always uncontaminated and indestructible. It cannot be distressed, nor can it be dried up. When Lord Viṣṇu in His incarnation appears before us, He seems to be like one of the conditioned souls materially encaged just to bewilder the asuras, or the nonbelievers, who are always alert to kill the Lord, even from the very beginning of His appearance. Kaṁsa wanted to kill Kṛṣṇa, and Rāvaṇa wanted to kill Rāma, because foolishly they were unaware of the fact that the Lord is never killed, for the spirit is never annihilated.", + "Therefore Bhīṣmadeva's piercing of the body of Lord Kṛṣṇa is a sort of bewildering problem for the nondevotee atheist, but those who are devotees or those who are liberated souls are not bewildered.", + "Bhīṣmadeva appreciated the all-merciful attitude of the Lord because He did not leave Arjuna alone, although He was disturbed by the sharpened arrows of Bhīṣmadeva, nor was He reluctant to come before Bhīṣma's deathbed, even though He was ill-treated by him in the battlefield. Bhīṣma's repentance and the Lord's merciful attitude are both unique in this picture.", + "Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur, a great ācārya and devotee in the humor of conjugal love with the Lord, remarks very saliently in this regard. He says that the wounds created on the body of the Lord by the sharpened arrows of Bhīṣmadeva were as pleasing to the Lord as the biting of a fiancee who bites the body of the Lord directed by a strong sense of sex desire. Such biting by the opposite sex is never taken as a sign of enmity, even if there is a wound on the body. Therefore, the fighting as an exchange of transcendental pleasure between the Lord and His pure devotee, Śrī Bhīṣmadeva, was not at all mundane. Besides that, since the Lord's body and the Lord are identical, there was no possibility of wounds in the absolute body. The apparent wounds caused by the sharpened arrows are misleading to the common man, but one who has a little absolute knowledge can understand the transcendental exchange in the chivalrous relation. The Lord was perfectly happy with the wounds caused by the sharpened arrows of Bhīṣmadeva. The word vibhidyamāna is significant because the Lord's skin is not different from the Lord. Because our skin is different from our soul, in our case the word vibhidyamāna, or being bruised and cut, would have been quite suitable. Transcendental bliss is of different varieties, and the variety of activities in the mundane world is but a perverted reflection of transcendental bliss. Because everything in the mundane world is qualitatively mundane, it is full of inebrieties, whereas in the absolute realm, because everything is of the same absolute nature, there are varieties of enjoyment without inebriety. The Lord enjoyed the wounds created by His great devotee Bhīṣmadeva, and because Bhīṣmadeva is a devotee in the chivalrous relation, he fixes up his mind on Kṛṣṇa in that wounded condition." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/35.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/35.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..40aca144 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/35.json @@ -0,0 +1,130 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 35, + "reference": "SB 1.9.35", + "devanagari": "सपदि सखिवचो निशम्य मध्ये निजपरयोर्बलयो रथं निवेश्य\nस्थितवति परसैनिकायुर् अक्ष्णा हृतवति पार्थसखे रतिर्ममास्तु", + "transliteration": "sapadi sakhi-vaco niśamya madhye\nnija-parayor balayo rathaṁ niveśya\nsthitavati para-sainikāyur akṣṇā\nhṛtavati pārtha-sakhe ratir mamāstu", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sapadi", + "meanings": [ + "on the battlefield" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakhi-vacaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "command of the friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niśamya", + "meanings": [ + "after hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madhye", + "meanings": [ + "in the midst of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nija", + "meanings": [ + "own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the opposite party" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "strength" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ratham", + "meanings": [ + "chariot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niveśya", + "meanings": [ + "having entered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthitavati", + "meanings": [ + "while staying there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "para-sainika", + "meanings": [ + "soldiers on the opposite side" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "duration of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṣṇā", + "meanings": [ + "by looking over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛtavati", + "meanings": [ + "act of diminishing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pārtha", + "meanings": [ + "Arjuna, son of Pṛthā (Kuntī)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakhe", + "meanings": [ + "unto the friend of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ratiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "intimate relation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mama", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "astu", + "meanings": [ + "let there be." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In obedience to the command of His friend, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa entered the arena of the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra between the soldiers of Arjuna and Duryodhana, and while there, He shortened the life spans of the opposite party by His merciful glance.

By executing the order of a devotee, the Lord becomes pleased, as a father is pleased to carry out the order of his small child.

This means that the innocent citizens were immuned from all effects of fighting between the rival royal parties. The citizens had no business to see what was going to happen after such fighting. They were to pay one fourth of their income to the ruler, whether he be Arjuna or Duryodhana. All the commanders of the parties on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra were standing face to face, and Arjuna saw them with great compassion and lamented that he was to kill his kinsmen on the battlefield for the sake of the empire. He was not at all afraid of the giant military phalanx presented by Duryodhana, but as a merciful devotee of the Lord, renunciation of worldly things was natural for him, and thus he decided not to fight for worldly possessions.

Bhīṣmadeva therefore promised that the next day he would kill all five Pāṇḍavas with special weapons made for the purpose. Duryodhana was satisfied, and he kept the arrows with him to be delivered the next day during the fight. By tricks Arjuna took the arrows from Duryodhana, and Bhīṣmadeva could understand that this was the trick of Lord Kṛṣṇa. So he took a vow that the next day Kṛṣṇa would have to take up weapons Himself, otherwise His friend Arjuna would die. So in the next day's fighting Bhīṣmadeva fought so violently that both Arjuna and Kṛṣṇa were in trouble. Arjuna was almost defeated; the situation was so tense that he was about to be killed by Bhīṣmadeva the very next moment. At that time Lord Kṛṣṇa wanted to please His devotee, Bhīṣma, by keeping his promise, which was more important than His own. Seemingly He broke His own promise. He promised before the beginning of the Battle of Kurukṣetra that He would remain without weapons and would not use His strength for either of the parties. But to protect Arjuna He got down from the chariot, took up the wheel of the chariot and hurriedly rushed at Bhīṣmadeva in an angry mood, like a lion goes to kill an elephant. He dropped His covering cloth on the way, and out of great anger He did not know that He dropped it. Bhīṣmadeva at once gave up his weapons and stood to be killed by Kṛṣṇa, his beloved Lord. The fighting of the day was thus ended at that very moment, and Arjuna was saved. Of course there was no possibility of Arjuna's death because the Lord Himself was on the chariot, but because Bhīṣmadeva wanted to see Lord Kṛṣṇa take up some weapon to save His friend, the Lord created this situation, making Arjuna's death imminent.

The astounding feature of such dealings is that a devotee can please the Lord by playing the part of an enemy. The Lord, being absolute, can accept service from His pure devotee even in the garb of an enemy. The Supreme Lord cannot have any enemy, nor can a so-called enemy harm Him because He is ajita, or unconquerable. But still He takes pleasure when His pure devotee beats Him like an enemy or rebukes Him from a superior position, although no one can be superior to the Lord. These are some of the transcendental reciprocatory dealings of the devotee with the Lord. And those who have no information of pure devotional service cannot penetrate into the mystery of such dealings. Bhīṣmadeva played the part of a valiant warrior, and he purposely pierced the body of the Lord so that to the common eyes it appeared that the Lord was wounded, but factually all this was to bewilder the nondevotees. The all-spiritual body cannot be wounded, and a devotee cannot become the enemy of the Lord. Had it been so, then Bhīṣmadeva would not have desired to have the very same Lord as the ultimate destination of his life. Had Bhīṣmadeva been an enemy of the Lord, He could have annihilated him without even moving. There was no need to come before Bhīṣmadeva with blood and wounds. But He did so because the warrior devotee wanted to see the transcendental beauty of the Lord decorated with wounds created by a pure devotee. This is the way of exchanging transcendental rasas, or relations between the Lord and the servitor. By such dealings both the Lord and the devotee become glorified in their respective positions. The Lord was so angry that Arjuna checked Him when He was moving towards Bhīṣmadeva, but in spite of Arjuna's checking, He proceeded towards Bhīṣmadeva as a lover goes to a lover, without caring for hindrances. Apparently His determination was to kill Bhīṣmadeva, but factually it was to please him as a great devotee of the Lord. The Lord is undoubtedly the deliverer of all conditioned souls.

A devotee more easily attains samādhi or trance by constantly remembering the Lord's personal feature along with His holy name, fame, pastimes, etc. Therefore, the concentration of the mystic yogī and that of the devotee are not on the same level. The concentration of the mystic is something mechanical, whereas that of the pure devotee is natural in pure love and spontaneous affection. Bhīṣmadeva was a pure devotee, and as a military marshal he constantly remembered the battlefield feature of the Lord as Pārtha-sārathi, the chariot driver of Arjuna. Therefore, the Lord's pastime as Pārtha-sārathi is also eternal. All the pastimes of the Lord, beginning from His birth at the prison house of Kaṁsa up to the Mauśala-līlā at the end, all move one after another in all the universes, just as the clock hand moves from one point to another. And in such pastimes His associates like the Pāṇḍavas and Bhīṣma are constant eternal companions. So Bhīṣmadeva never forgot the beautiful feature of the Lord as Pārtha-sārathi, which even Arjuna could not see. Arjuna was behind the beautiful Pārtha-sārathi while Bhīṣmadeva was just in front of the Lord. As far as the military feature of the Lord is concerned, Bhīṣmadeva observed this with more relish than Arjuna.", + "All the soldiers and persons on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra attained their original spiritual form like the Lord after their death because by the causeless mercy of the Lord they were all able to see Him face to face on that occasion. The conditioned souls rotating in the evolutionary cycle from the aquatics up to the form of Brahmā are all in the form of māyā, or the form obtained by one's own actions and awarded by material nature. The material forms of the conditioned souls are all foreign dresses, and when the conditioned soul becomes liberated from the clutches of material energy, he attains his original form. The impersonalist wants to attain the impersonal Brahman effulgence of the Lord, but that is not at all congenial to the living sparks, parts and parcels of the Lord. Therefore, the impersonalists again fall down and get material forms, which are all false to the spirit soul. A spiritual form like the Lord's, either two-handed or four-handed, is attained by the devotees of the Lord either in the Vaikuṇṭhas or in the Goloka planets, according to the original nature of the soul. This form, which is cent percent spiritual, is the svarūpa of the living being, and all the living beings who participated on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra, on both sides, attained their svarūpa, as confirmed by Bhīṣmadeva. So Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa was not only merciful to the Pāṇḍavas, but He was also merciful to the other parties because all of them attained the same result. Bhīṣmadeva wanted the same facility also, and that was his prayer to the Lord, although his position as an associate of the Lord is assured in all circumstances. The conclusion is that whoever dies looking on the Personality of Godhead within or without attains his svarūpa, which is the highest perfection of life." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..dfacd29f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/09/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 1.9.40", + "devanagari": "ललितगतिविलासवल्गुहास प्रणयनिरीक्षणकल्पितोरुमानाः\nकृतमनुकृतवत्य उन्मदान्धाः प्रकृतिम् अगन्किल यस्य गोपवध्वः", + "transliteration": "lalita-gati-vilāsa-valguhāsa-\npraṇaya-nirīkṣaṇa-kalpitorumānāḥ\nkṛta-manu-kṛta-vatya unmadāndhāḥ\nprakṛtim agan kila yasya gopa-vadhvaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "lalita", + "meanings": [ + "attractive" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gati", + "meanings": [ + "movements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilāsa", + "meanings": [ + "fascinating acts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "valgu-hāsa", + "meanings": [ + "sweet smiling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇaya", + "meanings": [ + "loving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirīkṣaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "looking on" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalpita", + "meanings": [ + "mentality" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urumānāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "highly glorified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛta-manu-kṛta-vatyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in the act of copying the movements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "unmadāndhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "gone mad in ecstasy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prakṛtim", + "meanings": [ + "characteristics" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agan", + "meanings": [ + "underwent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kila", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gopa-vadhvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the cowherd damsels." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Let my mind be fixed upon Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, whose motions and smiles of love attracted the damsels of Vrajadhāma [the gopīs].

One who accepts the challenge has to fight with the emperor and establish his own supremacy by victory. The defeated challenger would have to sacrifice his life, making a place for another king or ruler. So Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira also dispatched such challenging horses all over the world, and every ruling prince and king all over the world accepted Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira's leadership as the Emperor of the world. After this, all rulers of the world under the regime of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira were invited to participate in the great sacrificial ceremony of Rājasūya. Such performances required hundreds of millions of dollars, and it was not an easy job for a petty king. Such a sacrificial ceremony, being too expensive and also difficult to perform under present circumstances, is now impossible in this age of Kali. Nor can anyone secure the required expert priesthood to take charge of the ceremony.", + "So, after being invited, all the kings and great learned sages of the world assembled in the capital of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. The learned society, including the great philosophers, religionists, physicians, scientists and all great sages, was invited. That is to say, the brāhmaṇas and the kṣatriyas were the topmost leading men in society, and they were all invited to participate in the assembly. The vaiśyas and śūdras were unimportant elements in society, and they are not mentioned herein. Due to the change of social activities in the modern age, the importance of men has also changed in terms of occupational positions.", + "So in that great assembly, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa was cynosure of the neighboring eyes. Everyone wanted to see Lord Kṛṣṇa, and everyone wanted to pay his humble respects to the Lord. Bhīṣmadeva remembered all this and was glad that his worshipful Lord, the Personality of Godhead, was present before him in His actual formal presence. So to meditate on the Supreme Lord is to meditate on the activities, form, pastime, name and fame of the Lord. That is easier than what is imagined as meditation on the impersonal feature of the Supreme. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly stated (Bg. 12.5) that to meditate upon the impersonal feature of the Supreme is very difficult, it is practically no meditation or simply a waste of time because very seldom is the desired result obtained. The devotees, however, meditate upon the Lord's factual form and pastimes, and therefore the Lord is easily approachable by the devotees. This is also stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 12.9). The Lord is nondifferent from His transcendental activities. It is indicated also in this śloka that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, while actually present before the human society, especially in connection with the Battle of Kurukṣetra, was accepted as the greatest Personality of the time, although He might not have been recognized as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The propaganda that a very great man is worshiped as God after his death is misleading because a man after his death cannot be made into God.

Such foolish men are not aware of His inconceivable energies. By His inconceivable energy He is present in everyone's heart, as the sun is present before everyone all over the world. The Paramātmā feature of the Lord is an expansion of His plenary portions. He expands Himself as Paramātmā in everyone's heart by His inconceivable energy, and He also expands Himself as the glowing effulgence of brahmajyoti by expansion of His personal glow. It is stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā that the brahmajyoti is His personal glow. Therefore, there is no difference between Him and His personal glow brahmajyoti or His plenary portions as Paramātmā. Less intelligent persons who are not aware of this fact consider brahmajyoti and Paramātmā to be different from Śrī Kṛṣṇa. This misconception of duality is completely removed from the mind of Bhīṣmadeva, and he is now satisfied that it is Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa only who is all in all in everything. This enlightenment is attained by the great mahātmās or devotees, as it is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (7.19) that Vāsudeva is all in all in everything, and there is no existence of anything without Vāsudeva. Vāsudeva or Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original Supreme Person, as now confirmed by a mahājana, and therefore both the neophytes and the pure devotees must try to follow in his footsteps.

Sometimes less intelligent scholars make a mistake and think that the Kṛṣṇa of Vṛndāvana and that of the Battle of Kurukṣetra are different personalities. But for Bhīṣmadeva this misconception is completely removed. Even the impersonalist's object of destination is Kṛṣṇa as the impersonal jyoti, and the yogī's destination of Paramātmā is also Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is both brahmajyoti and localized Paramātmā, but in brahmajyoti or Paramātmā there is no Kṛṣṇa or sweet relations with Kṛṣṇa. In His personal feature Kṛṣṇa is both Pārtha-sārathi and Śyāmasundara of Vṛndāvana, but in His impersonal feature He is neither in the brahmajyoti nor in the Paramātmā.

This showering of flowers from heaven is a sign of recognition by great demigods, and it should never be compared to the decoration of the dead body. The body of Bhīṣmadeva lost its material effects due to being surcharged with spiritual realization, and thus the body was spiritualized as when iron becomes red-hot when in contact with fire. The body of a fully self-realized soul is not, therefore, accepted as material. Special ceremonies are observed for such spiritual bodies. The respect and recognition of Bhīṣmadeva are never to be imitated by artificial means, as it has become a fashion to observe the so-called jayanti ceremony for any and every common man. According to authorized śāstras, such a jayanti ceremony for an ordinary man, however exalted he may be materially, is an offense to the Lord because jayanti is reserved for the day when the Lord appears on the earth.

As a devotee of the Lord, he knew that the Lord's devotee cannot be vanquished at any rate. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was quite aware of all these good wishes of Bhīṣmadeva, and therefore he must have been feeling the great separation. He was sorry for the separation of a great soul, and not for the material body which Bhīṣmadeva relinquished. The funeral ceremony was a necessary duty, although Bhīṣmadeva was a liberated soul.

He had but to follow the instructions of the infallible Lord and the Lord's representative and the authorized agent, Bhīṣmadeva. It is instructed in the śāstras that one should follow the great authority and the infallible Lord without any personal motive and manufactured ideology. Therefore, it was possible for Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira to rule the whole world, including the seas, because the principles were infallible and universally applicable to everyone. The conception of one world state can only be fulfilled if we can follow the infallible authority. An imperfect human being cannot create an ideology acceptable to everyone. Only the perfect and the infallible can create a program which is applicable at every place and can be followed by all in the world. It is the person who rules, and not the impersonal government. If the person is perfect, the government is perfect. If the person is a fool, the government is a fool's paradise. That is the law of nature. There are so many stories of imperfect kings or executive heads. Therefore, the executive head must be a trained person like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, and he must have the full autocratic power to rule over the world.

The necessities of human society are food grains, fruits, milk, minerals, clothing, wood, etc. One requires all these items to fulfill the material needs of the body. Certainly one does not require flesh and fish or iron tools and machinery. During the regime of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, all over the world there were regulated rainfalls. Rainfalls are not in the control of the human being. The heavenly King Indradeva is the controller of rains, and he is the servant of the Lord. When the Lord is obeyed by the king and the people under the king's administration, there are regulated rains from the horizon, and these rains are the causes of all varieties of production on the land. Regulated rains not only help ample production of grains and fruits, but when they combine with astronomical influences there is ample production of valuable stones and pearls. Grains and vegetables can sumptuously feed a man and animals, and a fatty cow delivers enough milk to supply a man sumptuously with vigor and vitality. If there is enough milk, enough grains, enough fruit, enough cotton, enough silk and enough jewels, then why do the people need cinemas, houses of prostitution, slaughterhouses, etc.? What is the need of an artificial luxurious life of cinema, cars, radio, flesh and hotels? Has this civilization produced anything but quarreling individually and nationally? Has this civilization enhanced the cause of equality and fraternity by sending thousands of men into a hellish factory and the war fields at the whims of a particular man?", + "It is said here that the cows used to moisten the pasturing land with milk because their milk bags were fatty and the animals were joyful. Do they not require, therefore, proper protection for a joyful life by being fed with sufficient quantity of grass in the field? Why should men kill cows for their selfish purposes? Why should man not be satisfied with grains, fruits and milk, which, combined together, can produce hundreds and thousands of palatable dishes. Why are there slaughterhouses all over the world to kill innocent animals? Mahārāja Parīkṣit, grandson of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, while touring his vast kingdom, saw a black man attempting to kill a cow. The King at once arrested the butcher and chastised him sufficiently. Should not a king or an executive head protect the lives of the poor animals who are unable to defend themselves? Is this humanity? Are not the animals of a country citizens also? Then why are they allowed to be butchered in organized slaughterhouses? Are these signs of equality and fraternity or nonviolence?", + "Therefore, in contrast with the modern advanced civilized form of government, an autocracy like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira's is by far superior to so-called democracy in which animals are killed and a man less than an animal is allowed to cast votes for another less-than-animal man.", + "We are all creatures of material nature.

He is endowed with intelligence more powerful than animals for realizing the course of nature and the indications of the Almighty Father.

The secret to success is to take refuge under the protection of the Supreme Lord. Without His sanction, nothing can be possible. To make economic development by our own endeavors on the strength of tools and machinery is not all. The sanction of the Supreme Lord must be there, otherwise despite all instrumental arrangements everything will be unsuccessful. The ultimate cause of success is the daiva or the Supreme. Kings like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira knew perfectly well that the king is the agent of the Supreme Lord to look after the welfare of the mass of people. Actually the state belongs to the Supreme Lord. The rivers, the oceans, the forests, the hills, drugs, etc., are not creations of man. They are all creations of the Supreme Lord, and the living being is allowed to make use of the property of the Lord for service of the Lord. Today's slogan is that everything is for the people, and therefore the government is for the people and by the people. But to produce a new species of humanity at the present moment on the basis of philosophy and religion, on the basis of justice and peace, on the basis of God consciousness and perfection of human life, the ideology of godly communism, the world has again to follow in the footsteps of kings like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira or Parīkṣit. There is enough of everything by the will of the Lord, and we can make proper use of things to live comfortably without any enmity between men, or animal and man or nature. Everywhere the control of the Lord is there, and if the Lord is pleased, every part of nature will be pleased. The river wall flow profusely to fertilize the land, the oceans will supply sufficient quantity of minerals, pearls and jewels, the forest will supply sufficient wood, drugs and vegetables, and the seasonal changes will effectively help produce fruits and flowers in profuse quantity. The artificial way of living depending on factories and tools can render so-called happiness only to a limited number at the cost of millions. Since the energy of the mass of people is engaged in factory production, the natural products are being hampered, and for this the mass is unhappy. Without being educated properly, the mass of people are following in the footsteps of the vested interest by exploiting natural reserve, and therefore there is acute competition between individual and individual and nation and nation.

Unless one is pious and recognized by the Lord, he cannot make others happy who are under his care.

Home, country, family, society, wealth and all sorts of corollaries are all causes of bondage in the material world where the threefold miseries of life are concomitant factors.

No one is attracted by an earthen doll, even if it is most perfectly prepared to attract the attention of others. The dead body has no beauty because no one will accept the dead body of a so-called beautiful woman. Therefore, the conclusion is that the spirit spark is beautiful, and because of the soul's beauty one is attracted by the beauty of the outward body. The Vedic wisdom, therefore, forbids us to be attracted by false beauty. But because we are now in the darkness of ignorance, the Vedic civilization allows very restricted mixing of woman and man. They say that the woman is considered to be the fire, and the man is considered to be the butter. The butter must melt in association with fire, and therefore they may be brought together only when it is necessary. And shyness is a check to the unrestricted mixing.

So it is stated here that only the great devotees of the Lord who are able to clear the mind of all material dusts by rigid devotional service can experience the Lord as He is. Jitendriyā means one who has full control over the senses. The senses are active parts of the body, and their activities cannot be stopped. The artificial means of the yogic processes to make the senses inactive has proved to be abject failure, even in the case of great yogīs like Viśvāmitra Muni. Viśvāmitra Muni controlled the senses by yogic trance, but when he happened to meet Menakā (a heavenly society woman), he became a victim of sex, and the artificial way of controlling the senses failed. But in the case of a pure devotee, the senses are not at all artificially stopped from doing anything, but they are given different good engagements. When the senses are engaged in more attractive activities, there is no chance of their being attracted by any other inferior engagements. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said that the senses can only be controlled by better engagements. Devotional service necessitates purifying the senses or engaging them in the activities of devotional service. Devotional service is not inaction. Anything done in the service of the Lord becomes at once purified of its material nature. Material conception is due to ignorance only. There is nothing beyond Vāsudeva. The Vāsudeva conception gradually develops in the heart of the learned after a prolonged acceleration of the receptive organs.

The Lord appears in a particular family or place by His inconceivable potency. He does not take His birth as a conditioned soul quits his body and accepts another body. But His birth is like the appearance and disappearance of the sun. The sun arises on the eastern horizon, but that does not mean that the eastern horizon is the parent of the sun. The sun is existent in every part of the solar system, but he becomes visible at a scheduled time and so also becomes invisible at another scheduled time. Similarly, the Lord appears in this universe like the sun and again leaves our sight at another time. He exists at all times and at every place, but by His causeless mercy when He appears before us we take it for granted that He has taken His birth. Anyone who can understand this truth, in terms of the statements of revealed scriptures, certainly becomes liberated just after quitting the present body. Liberation is obtainable after many births and after great endeavor in patience and perseverance, in knowledge and renunciation. But simply by knowing in truth about the Lord's transcendental births and activities, one can get liberation at once. That is the verdict of the Bhagavad-gītā. But those who are in the darkness of ignorance conclude that the Lord's birth and activities in the material world are similar to those of the ordinary living being. Such imperfect conclusions cannot give anyone liberation. His birth, therefore, in the family of King Yadu as the son of King Vasudeva and His transfer into the family of Nanda Mahārāja in the land of Mathurā are all transcendental arrangements made by the internal potency of the Lord. The fortunes of the Yadu dynasty and that of the inhabitants of the land of Mathurā cannot be materially estimated. If simply by knowing the transcendental nature of the birth and activities of the Lord one can get liberation easily, we can just imagine what is in store for those who actually enjoyed the company of the Lord in person as a family member or as a neighbor. All those who were fortunate enough to associate with the Lord, the husband of the goddess of fortune, certainly obtained something more than what is known as liberation.

Facilities of enjoyment are also similarly enhanced, and the beauty of the inhabitants is legendary. Common men on the earth are very much fond of reaching the heavenly planets because they have heard that comforts of life are far greater there than on the earth. They are now trying to reach the moon by spacecraft. Considering all this, the heavenly planets are more celebrated than the earth. But the celebrity of earth has defeated that of the heavenly planets because of Dvārakā, where Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa reigned as King. Three places, namely Vṛndāvana, Mathurā and Dvārakā, are more important than the famous planets within the universe. These places are perpetually sanctified because when ever the Lord descends on earth He displays His transcendental activities particularly in these three places. They are perpetually the holy lands of the Lord, and the inhabitants still take advantage of the holy places, even though the Lord is now out of their sight. The Lord is the soul of all living beings, and He desires always to have all the living beings, in their svarūpa, or in their constitutional position, to participate in transcendental life in His association. His attractive features and sweet smiles go deep into the hearts of everyone, and once it is so done the living being is admitted in the kingdom of God, from which no one returns.

Not only this earth but also all the planets of the universes are places of misery because in none of the planets within the universe is there eternal life, eternal bliss and eternal knowledge.

Attainment of this stage of pure spiritual life is the highest perfection, and this stage is called svarūpa, or the factual identity of the living being. Liberation means to renovate this stage of svarūpa. In that perfect stage of svarūpa, the living being is established in five phases of loving service, one of which is the stage of mādhurya-rasa, or the humor of conjugal love. The Lord is always perfect in Himself, and thus He has no hankering for Himself. He, however, becomes a master, a friend, a son or a husband to fulfill the intense love of the devotee concerned. Herein two classes of devotees of the Lord are mentioned in the stage of conjugal love. One is svakīyā, and the other is parakīyā. Both of them are in conjugal love with the Personality of Godhead Kṛṣṇa. The queens at Dvārakā were svakīyā, or duly married wives, but the damsels of the Vraja were young friends of the Lord while He was unmarried. The Lord stayed at Vṛndāvana till the age of sixteen, and His friendly relations with the neighboring girls were in terms of parakīyā. These girls, as well as the queens, underwent severe penances by taking vows, bathing and offering sacrifice in the fire, as prescribed in the scriptures. The rites, as they are, are not an end in themselves, nor are fruitive action, culture of knowledge or perfection in mystic powers ends in themselves. They are all means to attain to the highest stage of svarūpa to render constitutional transcendental service to the Lord. Each and every living being has his individual position in either of the above-mentioned five different kinds of reciprocating means with the Lord, and in one's pure spiritual form of svarūpa the relation becomes manifest without mundane affinity. The kissing of the Lord, either by His wives or His young girl friends who aspired to have the Lord as their fiance, is not of any mundane perverted quality.

Rukmiṇī, the principal queen of Lord Kṛṣṇa, was the daughter of the King of Vidarbha, who wished that his qualified and beautiful daughter be given away to Lord Kṛṣṇa. But her eldest brother wanted her to be given away to King Śiśupāla, who happened to be a cousin of Kṛṣṇa. So there was open competition, and as usual Lord Kṛṣṇa emerged successful, after harassing Śiśupāla and other princes by His unrivalled prowess. Rukmiṇī had ten sons, like Pradyumna, etc. There were other queens also taken away by Lord Kṛṣṇa in a similar way. Full description of this beautiful booty of Lord Kṛṣṇa will be given in the Tenth Canto. There were 16,100 beautiful girls who were daughters of many kings and were forcibly stolen by Bhaumāsura, who kept them captive for his carnal desire. These girls prayed piteously to Lord Kṛṣṇa for their deliverance, and called by their fervent prayer, the merciful Lord released them all by fighting and killing Bhaumāsura. All these captive princesses were then accepted by the Lord as His wives, although in the estimation of society they were all fallen girls. The all-powerful Lord Kṛṣṇa accepted the humble prayers of these girls and married them with the adoration of queens. So altogether Lord Kṛṣṇa had 16,108 queens at Dvārakā, and in each of them He begot ten children. All these children grew up, and each had as many children as the father.

When Brahmājī and other demigods want to consult Lord Viṣṇu, the plenary portion of Lord Kṛṣṇa, they have to wait on the shore of the ocean of milk where Lord Viṣṇu is lying on White Land (Śvetadvīpa). This ocean of milk and the Śvetadvīpa planet are the replica of Vaikuṇṭhaloka within the universe. Neither Brahmājī nor the demigods like Indra can enter into this island of Śvetadvīpa, but they can stand on the shore of the ocean of milk and transmit their message to Lord Viṣṇu, known as Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Therefore, the Lord is rarely seen by them, but the inhabitants of Dvārakā, because of their being pure devotees without any tinge of material contamination of fruitive activities and empiric philosophical speculation, can see Him eye to eye by the grace of the Lord.

He is the brother of Kuntī and father of Subhadrā. Subhadrā was married with her cousin Arjuna, and this system is still prevalent in some parts of India. Vasudeva was appointed minister of Ugrasena, and later on he married eight daughters of Ugrasena's brother Devaka. Devakī is only one of them. Kaṁsa was his brother-in-law, and Vasudeva accepted voluntary imprisonment by Kaṁsa on mutual agreement to deliver the eighth son of Devakī. This was foiled by the will of Kṛṣṇa. As maternal uncle of the Pāṇḍavas, he took active parts in the purificatory process of the Pāṇḍavas. He sent for the priest Kaśyapa at the Śatasṛṅga Parvata, and he executed the functions. When Kṛṣṇa appeared within the bars of Kaṁsa's prison house, He was transferred to Gokula by Vasudeva at the house of Nanda Mahārāja, the foster father of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa disappeared along with Baladeva prior to the disappearance of Vasudeva, and Arjuna (his nephew) undertook the charge of the funeral ceremony after his disappearance.", + "Akrūra: The commander-in-chief of the Vṛṣṇi dynasty and a great devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Akrūra attained success in devotional service of the Lord by the one single process of offering prayers. He was the husband of Sūtanī, daughter of Ahūka. He supported Arjuna when Arjuna took Subhadrā forcibly away by the will of Kṛṣṇa. Both Kṛṣṇa and Akrūra went to see Arjuna after his successful kidnapping of Subhadrā. Both of them presented dowries to Arjuna after this incidence. Akrūra was present also when Abhimanyu, the son of Subhadrā, was married with Uttarā, mother of Mahārāja Parīkṣit. Ahūka, the father-in-law of Akrūra, was not on good terms with Akrūra. But both of them were devotees of the Lord.", + "Ugrasena: One of the powerful kings of the Vṛṣṇi dynasty and cousin of Mahārāja Kuntibhoja. His other name is Ahūka. His minister was Vasudeva, and his son was the powerful Kaṁsa. This Kaṁsa imprisoned his father and became the King of Mathurā. By the grace of Lord Kṛṣṇa and His brother Lord Baladeva, Kaṁsa was killed, and Ugrasena was reinstalled on the throne. When Śālva attacked the city of Dvārakā, Ugrasena fought very valiantly and repulsed the enemy. Ugrasena inquired from Nāradajī about the divinity of Lord Kṛṣṇa. When the Yadu dynasty was to be vanquished, Ugrasena was entrusted with the iron lump produced from the womb of Sāmba. He cut the iron lump into pieces and then pasted it and mixed it up with the sea water on the coast of Dvārakā. After this, he ordered complete prohibition within the city of Dvārakā and the kingdom. He got salvation after his death.", + "Baladeva: He is the divine son of Vasudeva by his wife Rohiṇī. He is also known as Rohiṇīnandana, the beloved son of Rohiṇī. He was also entrusted to Nanda Mahārāja along with His mother Rohiṇī when Vasudeva embraced imprisonment by mutual agreement with Kaṁsa. So Nanda Mahārāja is also the foster father of Baladeva along with Lord Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Baladeva both were constant companions from very childhood, although They were stepbrothers. He is the plenary manifestation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and therefore He is as good and powerful as Lord Kṛṣṇa. He belongs to the Viṣṇu-tattva (the principle of Godhead). He attended the svayaṁvara ceremony of Draupadī along with Śrī Kṛṣṇa. When Subhadrā was kidnapped by Arjuna by the organized plan of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, Baladeva was very angry with Arjuna and wanted to kill him at once. Śrī Kṛṣṇa, for the sake of His dear friend, fell at the feet of Lord Baladeva and implored Him not to be so angry. Śrī Baladeva was thus satisfied. Similarly, He was once very angry with the Kauravas, and He wanted to throw the whole city into the depths of the Yamunā. But the Kauravas satisfied him by surrendering unto His divine lotus feet. He was actually the seventh son of Devakī prior to the birth of Lord Kṛṣṇa, but by the will of the Lord He was transferred to the womb of Rohiṇī to escape the wrath of Kaṁsa. His other name is therefore Saṅkarṣaṇa, who is also the plenary portion of Śrī Baladeva. Because He was as powerful as Lord Kṛṣṇa and can bestow spiritual power to the devotees, He is therefore known as Baladeva. In the Vedas also it is enjoined that no one can know the Supreme Lord without being favored by Baladeva. Bala means spiritual strength and not physical. Some less intelligent persons interpret bala as the strength of the body. But no one can have spiritual realization by physical strength. Physical strength ends with the end of the physical body, but spiritual strength follows the spirit soul to the next transmigration, and therefore the strength obtained by Baladeva is never wasted. The strength is eternal, and thus Baladeva is the original spiritual master of all devotees.", + "Śrī Baladeva was also a class friend of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa as a student of Sāndīpani Muni. In His childhood He killed many asuras along with Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and specifically He killed the Dhenukāsura at Tālavana. During the Kurukṣetra battle, He remained neutral, and He tried his best not to bring about the fight. He was in favor of Duryodhana, but still He remained neutral. When there was a club-fight between Duryodhana and Bhīmasena, He was present on the spot. He was angry at Bhīmasena when the latter struck Duryodhana on the thigh or below the belt, and He wanted to retaliate the unfair action. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa saved Bhīma from His wrath. But He left the place at once, being disgusted at Bhīmasena, and after His departure Duryodhana fell to the ground to meet his death. The funeral ceremony of Abhimanyu, the son of Arjuna, was performed by Him, as He was the maternal uncle. It was impossible to be performed by any one of the Pāṇḍavas, who were all overwhelmed with grief. At the last stage, He departed from this world by producing a great white snake from His mouth, and thus He was carried by Śeṣanāga in the shape of a serpent.", + "Pradyumna: Incarnation of Kāmadeva or, according to others, incarnation of Sanat-kumāra, born as the son of the Personality of Godhead Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Lakṣmīdevī Śrīmatī Rukmiṇī, the principal queen at Dvārakā. He was one of those who went to congratulate Arjuna upon marrying Subhadrā. He was one of the great generals who fought with Śālva, and while fighting with him he became unconscious on the battlefield. His charioteer brought him back to the camp from the battlefield, and for this action he was very sorry and rebuked his charioteer. However, he fought again with Śālva and was victorious. He heard all about the different demigods from Nāradajī. He is one of the four plenary expansions of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. He is the third one. He inquired from his father Śrī Kṛṣṇa about the glories of the brāhmaṇas. During the fratricidal war amongst the descendants of Yadu, he died at the hand of Bhoja, another king of the Vṛṣṇis. After his death, he was installed in his original position.", + "Cārudeṣṇa: Another son of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Rukmiṇīdevī. He was also present during the svayaṁvara ceremony of Draupadī.

He learned the military art of throwing arrows from Arjuna, and he became a member of parliament during the time of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. He was present during the Rājasūya-yajña of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. When all the Vṛṣṇis were assembled during the time of Pravaśa-yajña, his glorious activities were narrated by Sātyaki before Lord Baladeva. He was also present along with his father Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa during the Aśvamedha-yajña performed by Yudhiṣṭhira. He was presented before some ṛṣis falsely dressed as a pregnant woman by his brothers, and in fun he asked the ṛṣis what he was going to deliver. The ṛṣis replied that he would deliver a lump of iron, which would be the cause of fratricidal war in the family of Yadu. The next day, in the morning, Sāmba delivered a large lump of iron, which was entrusted with Ugrasena for necessary action. Actually later on there was the foretold fratricidal war, and Sāmba died in that war.", + "So all these sons of Lord Kṛṣṇa left their respective palaces and leaving aside all engagements, including lying down, sitting and dining, hastened towards their exalted father." + ], + "verse_end": 17 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..510b5c75 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 1.11.18", + "devanagari": "वारणेन्द्रं पुरस्कृत्य ब्राह्मणैः ससुमंगलैः\nशंखतूर्यनिनादेन ब्रह्मघोषेण चादृताः\nप्रत्युज्जग्मू रथैर्हृष्टाः प्रणयागतसाध्वसाः", + "transliteration": "vāraṇendraṁ puraskṛtya\nbrāhmaṇaiḥ sa-sumaṅgalaiḥ\nśaṅkha-tūrya-ninādena\nbrahma-ghoṣeṇa cādṛtāḥ\npratyujjagmū rathair hṛṣṭāḥ\npraṇayāgata-sādhvasāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vāraṇendram", + "meanings": [ + "elephants on the auspicious mission" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puraskṛtya", + "meanings": [ + "putting in the front" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brāhmaṇaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-sumaṅgalaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with all-auspicious signs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaṅkha", + "meanings": [ + "conchshell" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tūrya", + "meanings": [ + "bugle" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ninādena", + "meanings": [ + "by the sound of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma-ghoṣeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by chanting the hymns of the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādṛtāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "glorified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prati", + "meanings": [ + "towards" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ujjagmū", + "meanings": [ + "proceeded hurriedly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rathaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "on the chariots" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛṣṭāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in cheerfulness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇayāgata", + "meanings": [ + "saturated with affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhvasāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all-respectful." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "They hastened toward the Lord on chariots with brāhmaṇas bearing flowers.

The idea is that there is a class of men who will drink at any cost, and it has been experienced that prohibition in great cities encouraged illicit smuggling of wine. Similarly, men who are not satisfied at home require such concessions, and if there is no prostitute, then such low men will induce others into prostitution. It is better that prostitutes be available in the marketplace so that the sanctity of society can be maintained.

It was a momentous hour for the Ṭhākur, and he took a turn towards spiritual realization by the words of a prostitute.

Therefore, festivities in the temple of the Lord, as held generally, are like festivals performed during the manifestive days of the Lord of Dvārakā, about 5,000 years ago. The authorized ācāryas, who know the science perfectly, install such temples of the Lord under regulative principles just to offer facilities to the common man, but persons who are less intelligent, without being conversant with the science, mistake this great attempt to be idol worship and poke their nose into that to which they have no access.

His body is the source of everything that be, the reservoir of all beauties beyond our experience.

The Lord Govinda is engaged there in herding the surabhi cows as His natural occupation. These goddesses of fortune can be seen automatically if we are attracted by the bodily features of the Lord. The impersonalists cannot observe such goddesses of fortune because of their dry speculative habit. And those who are artists, overtaken by the beautiful creation, should better see to the beautiful face of the Lord for complete satisfaction. The face of the Lord is the embodiment of beauty. What they call beautiful nature is but His smile, and what they call the sweet songs of the birds are but specimens of the whispering voice of the Lord. There are administrative demigods in charge of departmental service of cosmic management, and there are tiny administrative gods in the state service. They are always afraid of other competitors, but if they take shelter of the arms of the Lord, the Lord can protect them always from the attacks of enemies. A faithful servant of the Lord engaged in the service of administration is the ideal executive head and can well protect the interest of the people in general. Other so-called administrators are symbols of anachronisms leading to the acute distress of the people who are governed by them. The administrators can remain safely under the protection of the arms of the Lord. The essence of everything is the Supreme Lord: He is called the sāram. And those who sing and talk about Him are called the sāraṅgas, or the pure devotees. The pure devotees are always hankering after the lotus feet of the Lord. The lotus has a kind of honey which is transcendentally relished by the devotees. They are like the bees who are always after the honey. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī, the great devotee ācārya of the Gauḍīya-Vaiṣṇava-sampradāya, has sung a song about this lotus honey, comparing himself to the bee: \"O my Lord Kṛṣṇa, I beg to offer my prayers unto You. My mind is like the bee, and it is after some honey. Kindly, therefore, give my bee-mind a place at Your lotus feet, which are the resources for all transcendental honey. I know that even big demigods like Brahmā do not see the rays of the nails of Your lotus feet, even though they are engaged in deep meditation for years together. Still, O infallible one, my ambition is such, for You are very merciful to your surrendered devotees. O Mādhava, I know also that I have no genuine devotion for the service of Your lotus feet, but because Your Lordship is inconceivably powerful, You can do what is impossible to be done. Your lotus feet can deride even the nectar of the heavenly kingdom, and therefore I am very much attracted by them.

This means that the Lord at once expanded Himself in as many plenary expansions as there were queens and palaces and entered in each and every one of them simultaneously and separately. Here is another manifestation of the feature of His internal potency: He can expand Himself in as many forms of spiritual identity as He desires, even though He is one without a second. It is confirmed by the śruti mantra that the Absolute is one alone, and yet He becomes many as soon as He so desires. These manifold expansions of the Supreme Lord are manifested as plenary and separated portions. The separated portions are representations of His energy, and the plenary portions are manifestations of His Personality. Thus the Personality of Godhead manifested Himself in 16,108 plenary expansions and simultaneously entered into each and every one of the palaces of the queens. This is called vaibhava, or the transcendental potency of the Lord. And because He can do so, He is also known as yogeśvara. Ordinarily a yogī or mystic living being is able to expand himself at utmost to tenfold expansions of his body, but the Lord can do so to the extent of as many thousands or infinitely, as He likes. Unbelievers become astonished to learn that Lord Kṛṣṇa married more than 16,000 queens because they think of Lord Kṛṣṇa as one of them and measure the potency of the Lord by their own limited potency. One should know, therefore, that the Lord is never on the level of the living beings who are but expansions of His marginal potency, and one should never equalize the potent and the potency, although there is very little difference of quality between the potent and the potency. The queens were also expansions of His internal potency, and thus the potent and potencies are perpetually exchanging transcendental pleasures, known as pastimes of the Lord. One should not, therefore, become astonished to learn that the Lord married so many wives. On the contrary, one should affirm that even if the Lord marries sixteen thousand million wives, He is not completely manifesting His unlimited and inexhaustible potency. He married only 16,000 wives and entered in each and every one of the different palaces just to impress in the history of the human beings on the surface of the earth that the Lord is never equal to or lesser than any human being, however powerful he may be. No one is, therefore, either equal to or greater than the Lord. The Lord is always great in all respects. \"God is great\" is eternal truth.", + "Therefore, as soon as the queens saw from a distance their husband, who was away from home for long periods due to the Battle of Kurukṣetra, they all arose from the slumber of meditation and prepared to receive their most beloved. According to Yājñavalkya's religious injunctions, a woman whose husband is away from home should not take part in any social functions, should not decorate her body, should not laugh and should not go to any relative's house in any circumstance. This is the vow of the ladies whose husbands are away from home. At the same time, it is also enjoined that a wife should never present herself before the husband in an unclean state. She must decorate herself with ornaments and good dress and should always be present before the husband in a happy and joyous mood. The queens of Lord Kṛṣṇa were all in meditation, thinking of the Lord's absence, and were always meditating upon Him. The Lord's devotees cannot live for a moment without meditating on the Lord, and what to speak of the queens who were all goddesses of fortune incarnated as queens in the pastimes of the Lord at Dvārakā. They can never be separated from the Lord, either by presence or by trance. The gopīs at Vṛndāvana could not forget the Lord when the Lord was away in the forest cow herding. When the Lord boy Kṛṣṇa was absent from the village, the gopīs at home used to worry about Him traversing the rough ground with His soft lotus feet. By thinking thus, they were sometimes overwhelmed in trance and mortified in the heart. Such is the condition of the pure associates of the Lord. They are always in trance, and so the queens also were in trance during the absence of the Lord. Presently, having seen the Lord from a distance, they at once gave up all their engagements, including the vows of women as described above. According to Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur, there was a regular psychological reaction on the occasion. First of all, rising from their seats, although they wanted to see the husband, they were deterred because of feminine shyness. But due to strong ecstasy, they overcame that stage of weakness and became caught up with the idea of embracing the Lord, and this thought factually made them unconscious of their surrounding environment. This prime state of ecstasy annihilated all other formalities and social conventions, and thus they escaped all stumbling blocks in the path of meeting the Lord. And that is the perfect stage of meeting the Lord of the soul, Śrī Kṛṣṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5c306522 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 1.11.32", + "devanagari": "तम् आत्मजैर्दृष्टिभिर् अन्तरात्मना दुरन्तभावाः परिरेभिरे पतिम्\nनिरुद्धम् अप्य् आस्रवद् अम्बु नेत्रयोर्विलज्जतीनां भृगुवर्य वैक्लवात्", + "transliteration": "tam ātmajair dṛṣṭibhir antarātmanā\nduranta-bhāvāḥ parirebhire patim\nniruddham apy āsravad ambu netrayor\nvilajjatīnāṁ bhṛgu-varya vaiklavāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "Him (the Lord)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmajaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the sons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the sight" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antara-ātmanā", + "meanings": [ + "by the innermost part of the heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duranta-bhāvāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "insuperable ecstasy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parirebhire", + "meanings": [ + "embraced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patim", + "meanings": [ + "husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niruddham", + "meanings": [ + "choked up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "in spite of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsravat", + "meanings": [ + "tears" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ambu", + "meanings": [ + "like drops of water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "netrayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilajjatīnām", + "meanings": [ + "of those compact in shyness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhṛgu-varya", + "meanings": [ + "O chief of the Bhṛgus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiklavāt", + "meanings": [ + "inadvertently." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The insuperable ecstasy was so strong that the queens, who were shy, first embraced the lord in the innermost recesses of their hearts. then they embraced him visually, and then they sent their sons to embrace him [which is equal to personal embracing].

Therefore, the Lord, living as a householder amongst His competent wives, is never mundane, and His behavior with them is never to be understood as mundane sex relation. The women who became the wives of the Lord are certainly not ordinary women, because to get the Lord as one's husband is the result of many, many millions of births' tapasya (austerity). When the Lord appears on different lokas, or planets, or on this planet of human beings, He displays His transcendental pastimes just to attract the conditioned souls to become His eternal servitors, friends, parents and lovers respectively in the transcendental world where the Lord eternally reciprocates such exchanges of service. Service is pervertedly represented in the material world and broken untimely, resulting in sad experience. The illusioned living being conditioned by material nature cannot understand out of ignorance that all our relations here in the mundane world are temporary and full of inebrieties. Such relations cannot help us be happy perpetually, but if the same relation is established with the Lord, then we are transferred to the transcendental world after leaving this material body and become eternally related with Him in the relation we desire. The women amongst whom He lived as their husband are not, therefore, women of this mundane world, but are eternally related with Him as transcendental wives, a position which they attained by perfection of devotional service. That is their competency. The Lord is param brahma, or the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Conditioned souls seek after perpetual happiness in all places—not only on this earth but also on other planets throughout the universe because constitutionally a spiritual spark, as he is, can travel to any part of God's creation. But being conditioned by the material modes, he tries to travel in space by spacecraft and so fails to reach his destination. The law of gravitation is binding upon him like the shackles of a prisoner. By other processes he can reach anywhere, but even if he reaches the highest planet, he cannot attain that perpetual happiness which he is searching after life after life. When he comes, however, to his senses, he seeks after Brahman happiness, knowing it for certain that unlimited happiness, which he is seeking, is never attainable in the material world. As such, the Supreme Being, Param Brahman, certainly does not seek His happiness anywhere in the material world. Nor can His paraphernalia of happiness be found in the material world. He is not impersonal. Because He is the leader and Supreme Being amongst innumerable living beings, He cannot be impersonal. He is exactly like us, and He has all the propensities of an individual living being in fullness. He marries exactly like us, but His marriage is neither mundane nor limited by our experience in the conditioned state.

How, then, can one be accepted as the Supreme Personality of Godhead who is addicted to more than sixteen thousand wives? This question may be relevantly raised by inquisitive persons really anxious to know about the transcendental nature of the Supreme Lord. And to answer such questions, the sages at Naimiṣāraṇya have discussed the transcendental character of the Lord in this and in following verses. It is clear herein that the feminine attractive features which can conquer Cupid or even the supermost tolerant Lord Śiva could not conquer the senses of the Lord. Cupid's business is to invoke mundane lust. The whole universe is moving being agitated by Cupid's arrow. The activities of the world are being carried on by the central attraction of male and female. A male is searching after a mate to his liking, and the female is looking after a suitable male. That is the way of material stimulus. And as soon as a male is combined with a female, the material bondage of the living being is at once tightly interlocked by sex relation, and as a result of this, both the male and female's attraction for sweet home, motherland, bodily offspring, society and friendship and accumulation of wealth become the illusory field of activities, and thus a false but indefatigable attraction for the temporary material existence, which is full of miseries, is manifest. Those who are, therefore, on the path of salvation for going back home and back to Godhead are especially advised by all scriptural instruction to become free from such paraphernalia of material attraction. And that is possible only by the association of the devotees of the Lord who are called the mahātmās. Cupid, therefore, throws his arrow upon the living beings to make them mad after the opposite sex, whether the party is actually beautiful or not. Cupid's provocations are going on, even among beastly societies who are all ugly-looking in the estimation of the civilized nations. Thus Cupid's influence is exerted even amongst the ugliest forms, and what to speak of the most perfect beauties. Lord Śiva, who is considered to be most tolerant, was also struck by Cupid's arrow because he also became mad after the Mohinī incarnation of the Lord and acknowledged himself to be defeated. Cupid, however, was himself captivated by the grave and exciting dealings of the goddesses of fortune, and he voluntarily gave up his bow and arrow in a spirit of frustration. Such was the beauty and attraction of the queens of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Yet they could not disturb the transcendental senses of the Lord. This is because the Lord is all-perfect ātmārāma, or self-sufficient. He does not require anyone's extraneous help for His personal satisfaction. Therefore, the queens could not satisfy the Lord by their feminine attractiveness, but they satisfied Him by their sincere affection and service. Only by unalloyed transcendental loving service could they satisfy the Lord, and the Lord was pleased to treat them as wives in reciprocation. Thus being satisfied by their unalloyed service only, the Lord reciprocated the service just like a devout husband. Otherwise He had no business to become the husband of so many wives. He is the husband of everyone, but to one who accepts Him as such, He reciprocates. This unalloyed affection for the Lord is never to be compared to mundane lust. It is purely transcendental. And the grave dealings, which the queens displayed in natural feminine ways, were also transcendental because the feelings were expressed out of transcendental ecstasy. It is already explained in the previous verse that the Lord appeared like a mundane husband, but factually His relation with His wives was transcendental, pure and unconditioned by the modes of material nature." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4ac783c7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/11/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 1.11.37", + "devanagari": "तम् अयं मन्यते लोको ह्यसंगम् अपि संगिनम्\nआत्मौपम्येन मनुजं व्यापृण्वानं यतो ऽबुधः", + "transliteration": "tam ayaṁ manyate loko\nhyasaṅgam api saṅginam\nātmaupamyena manujaṁ\nvyāpṛṇvānaṁ yato 'budhaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Lord Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayam", + "meanings": [ + "all these (common men)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manyate", + "meanings": [ + "do speculate within the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the conditioned souls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asaṅgam", + "meanings": [ + "unattached" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "in spite of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅginam", + "meanings": [ + "affected" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma", + "meanings": [ + "self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aupamyena", + "meanings": [ + "by comparison with the self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manujam", + "meanings": [ + "ordinary man" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyāpṛṇvānam", + "meanings": [ + "being engaged in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "because" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abudhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "foolish because of ignorance." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The common materialistic conditioned souls speculate that the Lord is one of them.

Due to ignorance only, the foolish mundane wranglers misunderstand the Supreme Lord and spread their foolish imaginations amongst innocent persons by propaganda. The Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original primeval Personality of Godhead, and when He was personally present before the eyes of everyone, He displayed full-fledged divine potency in every field of activities. As we have already explained in the first verse of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, He is completely independent to act however He likes, but all His actions are full of bliss, knowledge and eternity. Only the foolish mundaners misunderstand Him, unaware of His eternal form of knowledge and bliss which is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā and Upaniṣads. His different potencies work in a perfect plan of natural sequence, and doing everything by the agency of His different potencies, He remains eternally the supreme independent. When He descends on the material world by His causeless mercy to different living beings, He does so by His own potency, He is not subject to any condition of the material modes of nature, and He descends as He is originally. The mental speculators misunderstand Him as the Supreme Person, and they consider His impersonal features as inexplicable Brahman to be all. Such a conception is also the product of conditioned life, because they cannot go beyond their own personal capacity. Therefore, one who considers the Lord on the level of one's limited potency is only a common man. Such a man cannot be convinced that the Personality of Godhead is always unaffected by the modes of material nature. He cannot understand that the sun is always unaffected by infectious matter. The mental speculators compare everything from the standpoint of experimental knowledge of their own selves. Thus when the Lord is found to act like an ordinary person in matrimonial bondage, they consider Him to be like one of them, without considering that the Lord can marry at once sixteen thousand wives or more. Due to a poor fund of knowledge they accept one side of the picture while disbelieving the other.

He is transcendental (nirguṇa) only, the supreme cognizant. Hari, or the Personality of Godhead, is the Supreme transcendental Person situated beyond the range of material affection. These statements are also confirmed even by Ācārya Śaṅkara. One may argue that His relation with the goddesses of fortune may be transcendental, but what about His relation with the Yadu dynasty, being born in that family, or His killing the nonbelievers like Jarāsandha and other asuras directly in contact with the modes of material nature. The answer is that the Divinity of the Personality of Godhead is never in contact with the qualities of material nature in any circumstances. Actually He is in contact with such qualities because He is the ultimate source of everything, yet He is above the actions of such qualities. He is known, therefore, as Yogeśvara, or the master of mystic power, or in other words the all-powerful. Even His learned devotees are not affected by the influence of the material modes. The great six Gosvāmīs of Vṛndāvana all came from greatly rich and aristocratic families, but when they adopted the life of mendicants at Vṛndāvana, superficially they appeared to be in wretched conditions of life, but factually they were the richest of all in spiritual values. Such mahābhāgavatas, or first-grade devotees, although moving amongst men, are not contaminated by honor or insult, hunger or satisfaction, by sleep or wakefulness, which are all resultant actions of the three modes of material nature. Similarly, some of them are engaged in worldly dealings, yet are unaffected. Unless these neutralities of life are there, one cannot be considered situated in transcendence. The Divinity and His associates are on the same transcendental plane, and their glories are always sanctified by the action of yogamāyā, or the internal potency of the Lord. The devotees of the Lord are always transcendental, even if they are sometimes found to have fallen in their behavior. The Lord emphatically declares in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.30) that even if an unalloyed devotee is found to be fallen due to a previous material contamination, he is nevertheless to be accepted as fully transcendental because of his being engaged cent percent in the devotional service of the Lord. The Lord protects him always because of his rendering service unto Him, and the fallen conditions are to be considered accidental and temporary.

He plays exactly like a son in the presence of Yaśodāmātā, He plays exactly like a lover in the presence of the cowherd damsels, and He plays exactly like a husband in the presence of the queens of Dvārakā.

The wives of Lord Kṛṣṇa were made to forget the immeasurable glories of the Lord by the internal potency so that there might not be any flaw of exchange, and they took it for granted that the Lord was a henpecked husband, always following them in lonely places.

Mahārāja Parīkṣit is especially famous as one who is protected by Viṣṇu, and when he was unduly cursed by a brāhmaṇa's son, he could have invoked the mercy of the Lord to save him, but he did not want to because he was a pure devotee. A pure devotee never asks the Lord for any undue favor. Mahārāja Parīkṣit knew that the curse of the brāhmaṇa's son upon him was unjustified, as everyone else knew, but he did not want to counteract it because he knew also that the age of Kali had begun and that the first symptom of the age, namely degradation of the highly talented brāhmaṇa community, had also begun. He did not want to interfere with the current of the time, but he prepared himself to meet death very cheerfully and very properly.

It is said that the master injects spiritual force into the disciple by an electrical current generated by the master, and the disciple begins to feel the shock. He becomes unconscious, and the master weeps for his exhausting his store of so-called spiritual assets. Such bogus advertisement is going on in this age, and the poor common man is becoming the victim of such advertisement. We do not find such folk tales in the dealings of Śukadeva Gosvāmī and his great disciple Mahārāja Parīkṣit. The sage recited Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in devotion, and the great King heard him properly. The King did not feel any shock of electrical current from the master, nor did he become unconscious while receiving knowledge from the master. One should not, therefore, become a victim of these unauthorized advertisements made by some bogus representative of Vedic knowledge. The sages of Naimiṣāraṇya were very respectful in hearing about Mahārāja Parīkṣit because of his receiving knowledge from Śukadeva Gosvāmī by means of ardent hearing.

He was exactly like his father. He had no personal ambition and was freed from all sorts of sense gratification because of his continuous service unto the lotus feet of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa.", + "purport": [ + "As mentioned in our introduction, \"There is a need for the science of Kṛṣṇa in human society for all the suffering humanity of the world, and we simply request the leading personalities of all nations to take to the science of Kṛṣṇa for their own good, for the good of society, and for the good of all the people of the world.\" So it is confirmed herein by the example of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, the personality of goodness. In India the people hanker after Rāma-rājya because the Personality of Godhead was the ideal king and all other kings or emperors in India controlled the destiny of the world for the prosperity of every living being who took birth on the earth. Herein the word prajāḥ is significant. The etymological import of the word is \"that which is born.\" On the earth there are many species of life, from the aquatics up to the perfect human beings, and all are known as prajās. Lord Brahmā, the creator of this particular universe, is known as the prajāpati because he is the grandfather of all who have taken birth. Thus prajā is used in a broader sense than it is now used. The king represents all living beings, the aquatics, plants, trees, the reptiles, the birds, the animals and man. Every one of them is a part and parcel of the Supreme Lord (Bg. 14.4), and the king, being the representative of the Supreme Lord, is duty-bound to give proper protection to every one of them. This is not the case with the presidents and dictators of this demoralized system of administration where the lower animals are given no protection while the higher animals are given so-called protection. But this is a great science which can be learned only by one who knows the science of Kṛṣṇa. By knowing the science of Kṛṣṇa, one can become the most perfect man in the world, and unless one has knowledge in this science, all qualifications and doctorate diplomas acquired by academic education are spoiled and useless. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira knew this science of Kṛṣṇa very well, for it is stated here that by continuous cultivation of this science, or by continuous devotional service to Lord Kṛṣṇa, he acquired the qualification of administering the state. The father is sometimes seemingly cruel to the son, but that does not mean that the father has lost the qualification to be a father. A father is always a father because he has always the good of the son at heart. The father wants every one of his sons to become a better man than himself. Therefore, a king like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, who is the personality of goodness, wanted everyone under his administration, especially human beings who have better developed consciousness, to become devotees of Lord Kṛṣṇa so that everyone can become free from the trifles of material existence. His motto of administration was all good for the citizens, for as personified goodness, he knew perfectly well what is actually good for them. He conducted the administration on that principle, and not on the rākṣasi or demonic principle of sense gratification. As an ideal king, he had no personal ambition, and there was no place for sense gratification because all his senses at all times were engaged in the loving service of the Supreme Lord, which includes the partial service to the living beings who form the parts and parcels of the complete whole. Those who are busy rendering service to the parts and parcels, leaving aside the whole, only spoil time and energy, as one does when watering the leaves of a tree without watering the root. If water is poured on the root, the leaves are enlivened perfectly and automatically, but if water is poured on the leaves only, the whole energy is spoiled. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, therefore, was constantly engaged in the service of the Lord, and thus the parts and parcels of the Lord, the living beings under his careful administration, were perfectly attended with all comforts in this life and all progress in the next. That is the way of perfect management of state administration." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d60a368a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 1.12.5", + "devanagari": "सम्पदः क्रतवो लोका महिषी भ्रातरो मही\nजम्बूद्वीपाधिपत्यं च यशश्च त्रिदिवं गतम्", + "transliteration": "sampadaḥ kratavo lokā\nmahiṣī bhrātaro mahī\njambū-dvīpādhipatyaṁ ca\nyaśaś ca tridivaṁ gatam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sampadaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "opulence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kratavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "future destination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahiṣī", + "meanings": [ + "the queens" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the brothers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahī", + "meanings": [ + "the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jambūdvīpa", + "meanings": [ + "the globe or planet of our residence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhipatyam", + "meanings": [ + "sovereignty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fame" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tridivam", + "meanings": [ + "celestial planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatam", + "meanings": [ + "spread over." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "News even reached the celestial planets about Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira's worldly possessions, the sacrifices by which he would attain a better destination, his queen, his stalwart brothers, his extensive land, his sovereignty over the planet earth, and his fame, etc.", + "purport": [ + "Only a rich and great man's name and fame are known all over the world, and the name and fame of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira reached the higher planets because of his good administration, worldly possessions, glorious wife Draupadī, the strength of his brothers Bhīma and Arjuna, and his solid sovereign power over the world, known as Jambūdvīpa.

That is not the way to reach the better planets. One must qualify himself to enter into such happy planets by sacrifice and service.

Being illusioned by the conditions of the external energy, one falsely thinks himself to be the served, but actually he is not served; he is servant of the senses like lust, desire, anger, avarice, pride, madness and intolerance. When one is in his proper senses by attainment of spiritual knowledge, he realizes that he is not the master of the material world but is only a servant of the senses. At that time he begs for the service of the Lord and thus becomes happy without being illusioned by so-called material happiness.

When the living being is hungry for spiritual satisfaction, he is misrepresented by material hunger. But the foolish leaders cannot see that even the people who are most sumptuously materially satisfied are still hungry. And what is their hunger and poverty? This hunger is actually for spiritual food, spiritual shelter, spiritual defense and spiritual sense gratification. These can be obtained in the association of the Supreme Spirit Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and therefore one who has them cannot be attracted by the so-called food, shelter, defense and sense gratification of the material world, even if they are relished by the denizens of the heavenly planets. Therefore, in the Bhagavad-gītā it is said by the Lord (Bg. 8.16) that even in the topmost planet of the universe, namely the Brahmaloka, where the duration of life is multiplied by millions of years by earth calculation, one cannot satisfy his hunger. Such hunger can only by satisfied when the living being is situated in immortality, which is attained in the spiritual sky far, far above the Brahmaloka, in the association of Lord Mukunda, the Lord who awards His devotees the transcendental pleasure of liberation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..443e448f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 1.12.7", + "devanagari": "मातुर्गर्भगतो वीरः स तदा भृगुनन्दन\nददर्श पुरुषं कंचिद्दह्यमानो ऽस्त्रतेजसा", + "transliteration": "mātur garbha-gato vīraḥ\nsa tadā bhṛgu-nandana\ndadarśa puruṣaṁ kañcid-\ndahyamāno 'stra-tejasā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "mātuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "garbha", + "meanings": [ + "womb" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being situated there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vīraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great fighter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "child Parīkṣit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tadā", + "meanings": [ + "at that time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhṛgu-nandana", + "meanings": [ + "O son of Bhṛgu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadarśa", + "meanings": [ + "could see" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kañcit", + "meanings": [ + "as someone else" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dahyamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "suffering from being burned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "astra", + "meanings": [ + "the brahmāstra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tejasā", + "meanings": [ + "temperature." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O son of Bhṛgu [Śaunaka], when the child Parīkṣit, the great fighter, was in the womb of his mother Uttarā and was suffering from the burning heat of the brahmāstra [thrown by Aśvatthāmā], he could observe the Supreme Lord coming to him.", + "purport": [ + "Death generally involves remaining in trance for seven months.

Thus the Lord is all-pervading by His inconceivable potency, and thus He entered the womb of Uttarā to save His beloved devotee Mahārāja Parīkṣit. In the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.13) the Lord assured everyone that His devotees are never to be vanquished. No one can kill a devotee of the Lord because he is protected by the Lord, and no one can save a person whom the Lord desires to kill. The Lord is all-powerful, and therefore He can both save and kill as He likes. He became visible to His devotee Mahārāja Parīkṣit even in that awkward position (in the womb of his mother) in a shape just suitable for his vision. The Lord can become bigger than thousands of universes and can become smaller than an atom at the same time. Merciful as He is, He becomes just suitable to the vision of the limited living being. He is unlimited. He is not limited by any measurement of our calculation. He can become bigger than what we can think of, and He can become smaller than what we can conceive. But in all circumstances He is the same all-powerful Lord. There is no difference between the thumblike Viṣṇu in the womb of Uttarā and the full-fledged Nārāyaṇa in the Vaikuṇṭha-dhāma, the kingdom of Godhead. He accepts the form of arca-vigraha (worshipable Deity) just to accept service from His different incapable devotees. By the mercy of the arca-vigraha, the form of the Lord in material elements, the devotees who are in the material world can easily approach the Lord, although He is not conceivable by the material senses. The arca-vigraha is therefore an all-spiritual form of the Lord to be perceived by the material devotees; such arca-vigraha of the Lord is never to be considered material. There is no difference between matter and spirit for the Lord, although there is a gulf of difference between the two in the case of the conditioned living being.

Even though a living being is qualitatively one with the Lord, still quantitatively there is a great difference between the Supreme Soul and the common individual soul. In the Bhagavad-gītā both the living beings and the Supreme Being are said to be all-pervading (yena sarvam idaṁ tatam), yet there is a difference between these two kinds of all-pervasiveness. A common living being or soul can be all-pervading within his own limited body, but the supreme living being is all-pervading in all space and all time. A common living being cannot extend its influence over another common living being by its all-pervasiveness, but the Supreme Supersoul, the Personality of Godhead, is unlimitedly able to exert His influence over all places and all times and over all living beings.

Every living being is controlled by the laws of nature at every minute, just as a citizen is controlled by the influence of the state. The state laws are grossly observed, but the laws of material nature, being subtle to our gross understanding, cannot be experienced grossly. As stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 3.9), every action of life produces another reaction, which is binding upon us, and only those who are acting on behalf of Yajña (Viṣṇu) are not bound by reactions. Our actions are judged by the higher authorities, the agents of the Lord, and thus we are awarded bodies according to our activities. The law of nature is so subtle that every part of our body is influenced by the respective stars, and a living being obtains his working body to fulfill his terms of imprisonment by the manipulation of such astronomical influence. A man's destiny is therefore ascertained by the birthtime constellation of stars, and a factual horoscope is made by a learned astrologer. It is a great science, and misuse of a science does not make it useless. Mahārāja Parīkṣit or even the Personality of Godhead appear in certain constellations of good stars, and thus the influence is exerted upon the body thus born at an auspicious moment. The most auspicious constellation of stars takes place during the appearance of the Lord on this material world, and it is specifically called jayanti and is not to be abused for any other purposes. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was not only a great kṣatriya emperor, but also a great devotee of the Lord. Thus he cannot take his birth at any inauspicious moment. As a proper place and time is selected to receive a respectable personage, so also to receive a personality like Mahārāja Parīkṣit, who is especially cared for by the Supreme Lord, a suitable moment is chosen when all good stars assembled together to exert their influence upon the King. Thus he took his birth just to be known as the great hero of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. This suitable arrangement of astral influences is never a creation of man's will, but is the arrangement of the superior management of the agency of the Supreme Lord. Of course, the arrangement is made according to the good or bad deeds of the living being. Herein lies the importance of pious acts performed by the living being. By pious acts only can one be allowed to get good wealth, good education and beautiful features. The saṁskāras of the school of sanātana-dharma (man's eternal engagement) are highly suitable for creating an atmosphere for taking advantage of good stellar influences, and, therefore, Garbhādhāna-saṁskāram, or the first seedling purificatory process prescribed for the higher castes, is the beginning of all pious acts to receive a good, pious and intelligent class of men in human society. There will be peace and prosperity in the world due to good and sane population only; there is hell and disturbance only because of the unwanted insane populace addicted to sex indulgence." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..28a7f167 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 1.12.13", + "devanagari": "तस्य प्रीतमना राजा विप्रैर्धौम्यकृपादिभिः\nजातकं कारयामास वाचयित्वा च मंगलम्", + "transliteration": "tasya prītamanā rājā\nviprair dhaumya-kṛpādibhiḥ\njātakaṁ kārayāmāsa\nvācayitvā ca maṅgalam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "his" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prītamanāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājā", + "meanings": [ + "King Yudhiṣṭhira" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vipraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the learned brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhaumya", + "meanings": [ + "Dhaumya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛpa", + "meanings": [ + "Kṛpa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and others also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jātakam", + "meanings": [ + "one of the purificatory processes performed just after the birth of a child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kārayāmāsa", + "meanings": [ + "had them performed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vācayitvā", + "meanings": [ + "by recitation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṅgalam", + "meanings": [ + "auspicious." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "King Yudhiṣṭhira, who was very satisfied with the birth of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, had the purificatory process of birth performed.

It is not possible, however, to revive the Vedic process of purification in this age for want of proper facilities and good brāhmaṇas, but there is the Pāñcarātrika system also recommended for this age. The Pāñcarātric system acts on the śūdra class of men, supposedly the population of the Kali-yuga, and it is the prescribed purificatory process suitable to the age and time. Such a purificatory process is allowed only for spiritual upliftment and not for any other purpose.

Both these learned and perfect priests assisted by other good brāhmaṇas were employed by Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira to perform the ceremony. Therefore all the saṁskāras or purificatory processes are not mere formalities or social functions only, but they are all for practical purposes and can be successfully performed by expert brāhmaṇas like Dhaumya and Kṛpa. Such brāhmaṇas are not only rare but also not available in this age, and therefore, for the purpose of spiritual upliftment in this fallen age, the Gosvāmīs prefer the purificatory processes under Pāñcarātrika formulas to the Vedic rites.", + "Kṛpācārya is the son of the great Ṛṣi Sardban and was born in the family of Gautama. The birth is said to be accidental. By chance, the great Ṛṣi Sardban met Janapadī, a famous society girl of heaven, and the Ṛṣi Sardban discharged semina in two parts. By one part immediately a male child and by the other part a female child were born as twins. The male child was later on known as Kṛpa, and the female child was known as Kṛpī. Mahārāja Śantanu, while engaged in chase in the jungle, picked up the children and brought them up to the brahminical status by the proper purificatory process. Kṛpācārya later on became a great general like Droṇācārya, and his sister was married to Droṇācārya. Kṛpācārya later on took part in the Battle of Kurukṣetra and joined the party of Duryodhana. Kṛpācārya helped kill Abhimanyu, the father of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, but he was still held in esteem by the family of the Pāṇḍavas due to his becoming as great a brāhmaṇa as Droṇācārya. When the Pāṇḍavas were sent to the forest after being defeated in the gambling game with Duryodhana, Dhṛtarāṣṭra entrusted the Pāṇḍavas to Kṛpācārya for guidance. After the end of the battle, Kṛpācārya again became a member of the royal assembly, and he was called during the birth of Mahārāja Parīkṣit for recitation of auspicious Vedic hymns to make the ceremony successful. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, while quitting the palace for his great departure to the Himalayas, entrusted Kṛpācārya with Mahārāja Parīkṣit as his disciple, and he left home satisfied because of Kṛpācārya's taking charge of Mahārāja Parīkṣit.

The first reason is that the child in the womb of his mother was spotless due to his becoming a pure devotee of the Lord. The second reason is that the child was the only surviving male descendant of Puru, the pious forefather of the virtuous King Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. The Lord wants to continue the line of pious kings to rule over the earth as His representatives for actual progress of a peaceful and prosperous life. After the Battle of Kurukṣetra, even up to the next generation of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was annihilated, and there were none who could generate another son in the great royal family.

Lord Kṛṣṇa is described herein as Viṣṇu, and this is also significant. Lord Kṛṣṇa, the original Personality of Godhead, does the work of protection and annihilation in His capacity as Viṣṇu. Lord Viṣṇu is the plenary expansion of Lord Kṛṣṇa. The all-pervasive activities of the Lord are executed by Him in His Viṣṇu feature. Child Parīkṣit is described here as spotlessly white because he is an unalloyed devotee of the Lord. Such unalloyed devotees of the Lord appear on the earth just to execute the mission of the Lord. The Lord desires the conditioned souls hovering in the material creation to be reclaimed to go back home, back to Godhead, and thus He helps them by preparing the transcendental literatures like the Vedas, by sending missionaries of saints and sages and by deputing His representative, the spiritual master. Such transcendental literatures, missionaries and representatives of the Lord are spotlessly white because the contamination of the material qualities cannot even touch them. They are always protected by the Lord when they are threatened with annihilation. Such foolish threats are made by the gross materialists. The brahmāstra, which was thrown by Aśvatthāmā at the child Parīkṣit, was certainly supernaturally powerful, and nothing of the material world could resist its force of penetration. But the all-powerful Lord, who is present everywhere, within and without, could counteract it by His all-powerful potency just to save a bona fide servant of the Lord and descendant of another devotee, Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, who was always obliged by the Lord by His causeless mercy." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..45245f27 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 1.12.17", + "devanagari": "तस्मान्नाम्ना विष्णुरात इति लोके भविष्यति\nमहाभाग न सन्देहो महाभागवतो महान्", + "transliteration": "tasmān nāmnā viṣṇu-rāta\niti loke bhaviṣyati\nmahā-bhāga na sandeho\nmahā-bhāgavato mahān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmnā", + "meanings": [ + "by the name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣṇu-rātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "protected by Viṣṇu, the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loke", + "meanings": [ + "in all the planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaviṣyati", + "meanings": [ + "shall become well known" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahābhāga", + "meanings": [ + "most fortunate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "no" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sandehaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "doubts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-bhāgavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the first-class devotee of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahān", + "meanings": [ + "qualified by all good qualities." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "For this reason this child will be well known in the world as one who is protected by the Personality of Godhead.

The Vedic hymns confirm that the Lord is the Supreme Person amongst all personalities. The difference between the two living beings is that the one, the Personality of Godhead, provides for all other living beings, and by knowing Him one can achieve eternal peace (Kaṭha Upaniṣad). Such protection is given by His different potencies to different grades of living beings. But as far as His unalloyed devotees are concerned, He gives the protection personally. Therefore, Mahārāja Parīkṣit is protected from the very beginning of his appearance in the womb of his mother. And because he is especially given protection by the Lord, the indication must be concluded that the child would be a first-grade devotee of the Lord with all good qualities. There are three grades of devotees, namely the mahābhāgavata, madhyam-adhikārī and the kaniṣṭhādhikārī. Those who go to the temples of the Lord and offer worshipful respect to the Deity without sufficient knowledge in the theological science and therefore without any respect for the devotees of the Lord are called materialistic devotees, or kaniṣṭhādhikārī, or the third-grade devotees. Secondly, the devotees who have developed genuine service mentality for the Lord and thus make friendships with similar devotees only, show favor to the neophytes and avoid the atheists are called the second-grade devotees. But those who see everything in the Lord or everything of the Lord and also see in everything an eternal relation of the Lord, so that there is nothing within their purview of sight except the Lord, are called the mahābhāgavatas, or the first-grade devotees of the Lord. Such first-grade devotees of the Lord are perfect in all respects. A devotee who may be in any of these categories is automatically qualified by all good qualities, and thus a mahābhāgavata devotee like Mahārāja Parīkṣit is certainly perfect in all respects. And because Mahārāja Parīkṣit took his birth in the family of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, he is addressed herein as the mahābhāgavata, or the greatest of the fortunates. The family in which a mahābhāgavata takes his birth is fortunate because due to the birth of a first-grade devotee, the members of the family, past, present and future up to one hundred generations, become liberated by the grace of the Lord, out of respect for His beloved devotee.

He must also leave an heir apparent equally qualified to rule over the innocent citizens.

In doing so, one becomes conditioned by the laws of material nature, and the material body is changed in terms of his own work. The living entity thus transmigrates from one body to another in 8,400,000 species of life. But due to his being the part and parcel of the Lord, he is not only maintained with all necessaries of life by the Lord, but also is protected by the Lord and His representatives, the saintly kings. These saintly kings give protection to all the prajās, or living beings, to live and to fulfill their terms of imprisonment. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was actually an ideal saintly king because while touring his kingdom he happened to see that a poor cow was about to be killed by the personified Kali, and he at once took him to task as a murderer. This means that even the animals were given protection by the saintly administrators, not from any sentimental point of view, but because those who have taken their birth in the world have the right to live. All the saintly kings, beginning from the King of the sun globe down to the King of the earth, are so inclined by the influence of the Vedic literatures. The Vedic literatures are taught in higher planets also, as there is reference in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 4.7) about the teachings to the sun-god (Vivasvān) by the Lord, and such lessons are transferred by disciplic succession, as it was done by the sun-god to his son Manu, and from Manu to Mahārāja Ikṣvāku.

Mahārāja Ikṣvāku also learned bhakti-yoga as taught in the Bhagavad-gītā from his father, Manu, who got it from his father, the sun-god. Later on the teaching of the Bhagavad-gītā came down by disciplic succession from Mahārāja Ikṣvāku, but in course of time the chain was broken by unscrupulous persons, and therefore it again had to be taught to Arjuna on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra. So all the Vedic literatures are current from the very beginning of creation of the material world, and thus the Vedic literatures are known as apauruṣeya (not made by man).

Mahārāja Śibi was so charitably disposed that he wanted to give over his acquired position in the heavenly kingdom to Yayāti, but he did not accept it. He went to the heavenly planet along with great ṛṣis like Aṣṭaka and others. On inquiry from the ṛṣis, Yayāti gave an account of Śibi's pious acts when all of them were on the path to heaven. He has become a member of the assembly of Yamarāja, who has become his worshipful deity. As confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā, the worshiper of the demigods goes to the planets of the demigods (yānti deva-vratā devān); so Mahārāja Śibi has become an associate of the great Vaiṣṇava authority Yamarāja on that particular planet. While he was on the earth he became very famous as a protector of surrendered souls and a donor of charities. The King of heaven once took the shape of a pigeon hunter bird (eagle), and Agni the fire-god took the shape of a pigeon. The pigeon, while being chased by the eagle, took shelter on the lap of Mahārāja Śibi, and the hunter eagle wanted the pigeon back from the King. The King wanted to give it some other meat to eat and requested the bird not to kill the pigeon. The hunter bird refused to accept the King's offer, but it was settled later on that the eagle would accept flesh from the body of the King of the pigeon's equivalent weight. The King began to cut flesh from his body to weigh in the balance equivalent to the weight of the pigeon, but the mystic pigeon always remained heavier. The King then put himself on the balance to equate with the pigeon, and the demigods were pleased with him. The King of heaven and the fire-god disclosed their identity, and the King was blessed by them. Devarṣi Nārada also glorified Mahārāja Śibi for his great achievements, specifically in charity and protection. Mahārāja Śibi sacrificed his own son for the satisfaction of human beings in his kingdom. And thus child Parīkṣit was to become a second Śibi in charity and protection.", + "Dauṣyanti Bharata: There are many Bharatas in history, of which Bharata the brother of Lord Rāma, Bharata the son of King Ṛṣabha, and Bharata the son of Mahārāja Duṣyanta are very famous. And all these Bharatas are historically known to the universe. This earth planet is known as Bhārata, or Bhāratavarṣa, due to King Bharata the son of Ṛṣabha, but according to some this land is known as Bhārata due to the reign of the son of Duṣyanta. So far as we are convinced, this land's name Bhāratavarṣa was established from the reign of Bharata, the son of King Ṛṣabha. Before him the land was known as Ilāvativarṣa, but just after the coronation of Bharata, the son of Ṛṣabha, this land is famous as Bhāratavarṣa.", + "But despite all this, Bharata, son of Mahārāja Duṣyanta, was not less important. He is the son of the famous beauty Śakuntalā. Mahārāja Duṣyanta fell in love with Śakuntalā in the forest, and Bharata was conceived. After that, Mahārāja forgot his wife Śakuntalā by the curse of Kaṇvamuni, and the child Bharata was brought up in the forest by his mother. Even in his childhood he was so powerful that he challenged the lions and elephants in the forest and would fight with them as little children play with cats and dogs. Because of the boy's becoming so strong, more than the so-called modern Tarzan, the ṛṣis in the forest called him Sarvadaman, or one who is able to control everyone. A full description of Mahārāja Bharata is given in the Mahābhārata Ādi-Parva. The Pāṇḍavas, or the Kurus, are sometimes addressed as Bharata due to being born in the dynasty of famous Mahārāja Bharata, the son of King Duṣyanta." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ae99f30a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 1.12.21", + "devanagari": "धन्विनाम् अग्रणीर् एष तुल्यश्चार्जुनयोर्द्वयोः\nहुताश इव दुर्धर्षः समुद्र इव दुस्तरः", + "transliteration": "dhanvinām agraṇīr eṣa\ntulyaś cārjunayor dvayoḥ\nhutāśa iva durdharṣaḥ\nsamudra iva dustaraḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dhanvinām", + "meanings": [ + "of the great bowmen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agraṇīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the foreman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tulyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "equally good" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arjunayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Arjunas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the two" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hutāśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durdharṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "irresistible" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samudraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "ocean" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dustaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unsurpassable." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Amongst great bowmen, this child will be as good as Arjuna.

A short description of the Pāṇḍava Arjuna is given below:", + "Pāṇḍava Arjuna: The great hero of the Bhagavad-gītā. He is the kṣetraja son of Mahārāja Pāṇḍu. Queen Kuntī could call for any one of the demigods, and thus she called Indra, and Arjuna is born by him. Arjuna is therefore a plenary part of the heavenly King Indra. He was born in the month of Phalguna (Feb.-March), and therefore he is also called Phalguni. When he appeared as the son of Kuntī, his future greatness was proclaimed by air messages, and all the important personalities from different parts of the universe, such as the demigods, the Gandharvas, the Ādityas (from the sun globe) the Rudras, the Vasus, the Nāgas and different ṛṣis (sages) of importance, and the Apsaras or the society girls of heaven, all attended the ceremony. The Apsaras pleased everyone by their heavenly dances and songs. Vasudeva, the father of Lord Kṛṣṇa and the maternal uncle of Arjuna, sent his priest representative Kaśyapa to purify Arjuna by all the prescribed saṁskāras or reformatory processes. His saṁskāra of giving a name was performed in the presence of the ṛṣis, residents of Śatasṛṅga. He married four wives, Draupadī, Subhadrā, Citrāṅgadā and Ulūpī, from whom he got four sons of the names Śrutakīrti, Abhimanyu, Babhruvāhana, and Irāvān respectively.", + "During his student life he was entrusted to study under the great professor Droṇācārya, along with other Pāṇḍavas and the Kurus. But he excelled everyone by his studious intensity, and Droṇācārya was especially attracted by his disciplinary affection. Droṇācārya accepted him as a first grade scholar and loved heartily to bestow upon him all the blessings of military science. He was so ardent a student that he used to practice bowmanship even at night, and for all these reasons Professor Droṇācārya was determined to make him the topmost bowman of the world. He passed very brilliantly the examination in piercing the target, and Droṇācārya was very pleased. Royal families at Manipur and Tripura are descendants of Babhruvāhana. He saved Droṇācārya from the attack of a crocodile, and the Ācārya, being pleased with him, rewarded him a weapon of the name Brahmaśira. Mahārāja Drupada was inimical toward Droṇācārya, and thus when he attacked the Ācārya, Arjuna got him arrested and brought him before Droṇācārya. He besieged a city of the name Ahichhatra, belonging to Mahārāja Drupada, and after taking it over he gave it to Droṇācārya. The confidential treatment of the weapon Brahmaśira was explained to Arjuna, and Droṇācārya was promised by Arjuna that he would use the weapon if necessary when he (Droṇācārya) personally became an enemy of Arjuna. By this, the Ācārya forecasted the future battle of Kurukṣetra, in which Droṇācārya was on the opposite side. Mahārāja Drupada, although defeated by Arjuna on behalf of his professor Droṇācārya, decided to hand over his daughter Draupadī to his young combatant, but he was disappointed when he heard the false news of Arjuna's death in the fire of a lac-house intrigued by Duryodhana. He therefore arranged for Draupadī's personal selection of a groom who could pierce the eye of a fish hanging on the ceiling. This trick was especially made because only Arjuna could do it, and he was successful in his desire to hand over his equally worthy daughter to Arjuna. His brothers were at that time living incognito under agreement with Duryodhana, and Arjuna and his brothers attended the meeting of Draupadī's selection in the dress of brāhmaṇas. When all the kṣatriya kings assembled saw that a poor brāhmaṇa had been garlanded by Draupadī for her lord, Śrī Kṛṣṇa disclosed his identity to Balarāma.", + "He met Ulūpī at Haridvar, and he was attracted by the girl belonging to Nāgaloka, and thus Iravan was born. Similarly, he met Citrāṅgadā, a daughter of the King of Maṇipura, and thus Babhruvāhana was born. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa made a plan to help Arjuna to kidnap Subhadrā, sister of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, because Baladeva was inclined to hand her over to Duryodhana. Yudhiṣṭhira also agreed with Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and thus Subhadrā was taken by force by Arjuna and then married to him. Subhadrā's son is Abhimanyu, the father of Parīkṣit Mahārāja, the posthumous child. He satisfied the fire-god by setting fire to the Khāṇḍava Forest, and thus the fire-god gave him one weapon. Indra was angry when fire was set in the Khāṇḍava Forest, and thus Indra, assisted by all other demigods, began fighting with Arjuna for his great challenge. They were defeated by Arjuna, and Indradeva returned to his heavenly kingdom. Arjuna also promised all protection to one Mayāsura, and the latter presented him one valuable conchshell celebrated as the Devadatta. Similarly, he received many other valuable weapons from Indradeva when he was satisfied to see his chivalry.", + "When Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was disappointed in defeating the King of Magadha, Jarāsandha, it was Arjuna only who gave King Yudhiṣṭhira all kinds of assurances, and thus Arjuna, Bhīma and Lord Kṛṣṇa started for Magadha to kill Jarāsandha. When he went out to bring all other kings of the world under the subjection of the Pāṇḍavas, as was usual after the coronation of every emperor, he conquered the country named Kelinda and brought in subjugation King Bhagdutt. Then he travelled through countries like Antagiri, Ulukpur, Modapur, etc., and brought under subjugation all the rulers.", + "Sometimes he underwent severe types of penances, and later on he was rewarded by Indradeva. Lord Śiva also wanted to try the strength of Arjuna, and in the form of an aborigine, Lord Śiva met him. There was a great fight between the two, and at last Lord Śiva was satisfied with him and disclosed his identity. Arjuna prayed to the lord in all humbleness, and the lord, being pleased with him, presented him the paśupata weapon. He acquired many other important weapons from different demigods. He received daṇḍāstra from Yamarāja, paśāstra from Varuṇa, and antardhana-astra from Kuvera, the treasurer of the heavenly kingdom. Indra wanted him to come to the heavenly kingdom, the Indraloka planet beyond the moon planet. In that planet he was cordially received by the local residents, and he was awarded reception in the heavenly parliament of Indradeva. Then he met Indradeva, who not only presented him with his Vajra weapon, but also taught him the military and musical science as used in the heavenly planet. In one sense, Indra is the real father of Arjuna, and therefore indirectly he wanted to entertain Arjuna with the famous society girl of heaven, Urvaśī the celebrated beauty. The society girls of heaven are lusty, and Urvaśī was very eager to contact Arjuna, the strongest human being, and she met him in his room and expressed her desires. But Arjuna sustained his unimpeachable character by closing his eyes before Urvaśī and addressing her as mother of the Kuru dynasty and placing her in the category of his mothers Kuntī, Mādrī and Śacīdevī, wife of Indradeva. Disappointed, Urvaśī cursed Arjuna and left. In the heavenly planet he also met the great celebrated ascetic Lomasa and prayed to him for the protection of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira.", + "When his inimical cousin Duryodhana was under the clutches of the Gandharvas, he wanted to save him and requested the Gandharvas to release Duryodhana, but the Gandharvas refused, and thus he fought with them and got Duryodhana released. When all the Pāṇḍavas lived incognito, he presented himself in the court of King Virāṭa as a eunuch and was employed as the musical teacher of Uttarā, his future daughter-in-law, and was known in the Virāṭa court as the Bṛhannala. As Bṛhannala, he fought on behalf of Uttara, the son of King Virāṭa, and thus defeated the Kurus in the fight incognito. His secret weapons were safely kept in the custody of a somi tree, and he ordered Uttara to get them back. His identity and his brothers' identity were later on disclosed to Uttara. Droṇācārya was informed of Arjuna's presence in the fight of the Kurus and the Virāṭas. Later, on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra, Arjuna killed many great generals like Karṇa and others. After the Battle of Kurukṣetra, he punished Aśvatthāmā, who killed all the five sons of Draupadī. Then all the brothers went to Bhīṣmadeva.", + "It is due to Arjuna only that the great philosophical discourses of the Bhagavad-gītā were again spoken by the Lord on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra. His wonderful acts on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra are vividly described in the Mahābhārata. Arjuna was, however, defeated by his son Babhruvāhana at Maṇipura and fell unconscious when Ulūpī saved him. After the disappearance of Lord Kṛṣṇa, the message was brought by him to Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. Again, he visited Dvārakā, and all the widow wives of Lord Kṛṣṇa lamented before him. He took them all in the presence of Vasudeva and pacified all of them. Later on, when Vasudeva passed away, he performed his funeral ceremony in the absence of Kṛṣṇa. While Arjuna was taking all the wives of Kṛṣṇa to Indraprastha, he was attacked on the way, and he could not protect the ladies in his custody. At last, advised by Vyāsadeva, all the brothers headed for Mahāprasthan. On the way, at the request of his brother, he gave up all important weapons as useless, and he dropped them all in the water." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3109e7b6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 1.12.22", + "devanagari": "मृगेन्द्र इव विक्रान्तो निषेव्यो हिमवान् इव\nतितिक्षुर्वसुधेवासौ सहिष्णुः पितराविव", + "transliteration": "mṛgendra iva vikrānto\nniṣevyo himavān iva\ntitikṣur vasudhevāsau\nsahiṣṇuḥ pitarāviva", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "mṛgendraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the lion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikrāntaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niṣevyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "worthy of taking shelter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "himavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Himalayan mountains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "titikṣuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "forbearance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vasudhā iva", + "meanings": [ + "like the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "the child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sahiṣṇuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "tolerant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitarau", + "meanings": [ + "parents" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "This child will be as strong as a lion, and as worthy a shelter as the Himalayan mountains.

He fell in love with Devayānī, the most beloved daughter of Śukrācārya. Devayānī wished to marry him, but at first he refused to accept her because of her being a daughter of a brāhmaṇa. According to śāstras, a brāhmaṇa could marry the daughter of a brāhmaṇa. They were very much cautious about varṇa-saṅkara population in the world. Śukrācārya ammended this law of forbidden marriage and induced Emperor Yayāti to accept Devayānī. Devayānī had a girl friend named Śarmiṣṭhā, who also fell in love with the emperor and thus went with her friend Devayānī. Śukrācārya forbade Emperor Yayāti to call Śarmiṣṭhā into his bedroom, but Yayāti could not strictly follow his instruction. He secretly married Śarmiṣṭhā also and begot sons by her. When this was known by Devayānī, she went to her father and lodged a complaint. Yayāti was much attached to Devayānī, and when he went to his father-in-law's place to call her, Śukrācārya was angry with him and cursed him to become impotent. Yayāti begged his father-in-law to withdraw his curse, but the sage asked Yayāti to ask youthfulness from his sons and let them become old as the condition of his becoming potent. He had five sons, two from Devayānī and three from Śarmiṣṭhā. From his five sons, namely 1) Yadu, 2) Turvasu, 3) Druhyu, 4) Anu, and 5) Pūru, five famous dynasties, namely 1) the Yadu dynasty, 2) the Yavana (Turk) dynasty, 3) the Bhoja dynasty, 4) the Mleccha dynasty (Greek), and 5) the Paurava dynasty, all emanated to spread all over the world. He reached the heavenly planets by dint of his pious acts, but he fell down from there because of his self-advertisement and criticizing other great souls. After his fall, his daughter and grandson bestowed upon him their accumulated virtues, and by the help of his grandson and friend Śibi, he was again promoted to the heavenly kingdom, becoming one of the assembly members of Yamarāja, with whom he is staying as a devotee. He performed more than one thousand different sacrifices, gave in charity very liberally and was a very influential king. His majestical power was felt all over the world. His youngest son agreed to award him his youthfulness when he was troubled with lustful desires, even for one thousand years. Finally he became detached from worldly life and returned the youthfulness again to his son Pūru. He wanted to hand over the kingdom to Pūru, but his noblemen and the subjects did not agree. But when he explained to his subjects the greatness of Pūru, they agreed to accept Pūru as the King, and thus Emperor Yayāti retired from family life and left home for the forest." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1207cc00 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/12/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,82 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 1.12.25", + "devanagari": "धृत्या बलिसमः कृष्णे प्रह्लाद इव सद्ग्रहः\nआहर्तैषो ऽश्वमेधानां वृद्धानां पर्युपासकः", + "transliteration": "dhṛtyā bali-samaḥ kṛṣṇe\nprahlāda iva sad-grahaḥ\nāhartaiṣo 'śvamedhānāṁ\nvṛddhānāṁ paryupāsakaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dhṛtyā", + "meanings": [ + "by patience" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bali-samaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "like Bali Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇe", + "meanings": [ + "unto Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prahlāda", + "meanings": [ + "Prahlāda Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat-grahaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "devotee of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āharta", + "meanings": [ + "performer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśvamedhānām", + "meanings": [ + "of Aśvamedha sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛddhānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the old and experienced men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paryupāsakaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "follower." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "This child will be like Bali Mahārāja in patience, a staunch devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa like Prahlāda Mahārāja, a performer of many aśvamedha [horse] sacrifices and a follower of the old and experienced men.", + "purport": [ + "Bali Mahārāja: One of the twelve authorities in devotional service of the Lord.

In this age of Kali, regular license is issued for maintaining all of these different departments of quarrel. So how can they expect peace and morality in the state?

One may not be as fortunate as Mahārāja Parīkṣit to have the opportunity to see the Lord in the womb of his mother, but even if he is not so fortunate, he can be made so if the parents of the child desire him to be so. There is a practical example in my personal life in this connection. My father was a pure devotee of the Lord, and when I was only four or five years old, my father gave me a couple of forms of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa. In a playful manner, I used to worship these Deities along with my sister, and I used to imitate the performances of a neighboring temple of Rādhā-Govinda. By constantly visiting this neighboring temple and copying the ceremonies in connection with my own Deities of play, I developed a natural affinity for the Lord. My father used to observe all the ceremonies befitting my position. Later on, these activities were suspended due to my association in the schools and colleges, and I became completely out of practice.

And because he had the gold peak at his disposal, he had sufficient gold in his possession. The canopy of the sacrificial altar was completely made of gold.

He therefore took all the responsibility for sins committed in the warfare, and to get rid of all these sins, he wanted to perform three sacrifices in which horses are offered at the altar. Such a sacrifice is very costly. Even Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira had to collect the necessary heaps of gold left by Mahārāja Marutta and the brāhmaṇas who were given gold in charity by King Marutta. The learned brāhmaṇas could not take away all the loads of gold given by Mahārāja Marutta, and therefore they left behind the major portion of the gift. And Mahārāja Marutta also did not recollect such heaps of gold given away in charity. Besides that, all the golden plates and utensils which were used in the sacrifice were also thrown in the dustbins, and all such heaps of gold remained unclaimed property for a long time, till Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira collected them for his own purposes. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa advised the brothers of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira to collect the unclaimed property because it belonged to the King. The more astonishing thing is that no subject of the state also collected such unclaimed gold for industrial enterprise, or anything like that. This means that the state citizens were completely satisfied with all necessities of life and therefore not inclined to accept unnecessary productive enterprises for sense gratification. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira also requisitioned the heaps of gold for performing sacrifices and for pleasing the Supreme Hari Personality of Godhead. Otherwise he had no desire to collect them for the state treasury.", + "One should take lessons from the acts of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. He was afraid of sins committed on the battlefield, and therefore he wanted to satisfy the supreme authority. This indicates that unintentional sins are also committed in our daily occupational discharge of duties, and to counteract even such unintentional crimes, one must perform sacrifices as they are recommended in the revealed scriptures. The Lord says in the Bhagavad-gītā (yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ) that one must perform sacrifices recommended in the scriptures in order to get rid of commitments of all unauthorized work, or even unintentional crimes which we are apt to commit. By doing so, one shall be freed from all kinds of sins. And those who do not do so, but work for self-interest or sense gratification, have to undergo all tribulations accrued from committed sins. Therefore, the main purpose of performing sacrifices is to satisfy the Supreme Personality Hari. The process of performing sacrifices may be different in terms of different times, places, and persons, but the aim of such sacrifices is one and the same at all times and in all circumstances, viz. , satisfaction of the Supreme Lord Hari. That is the way of pious life, and that is the way of peace and prosperity in the world at large. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira did all these as the ideal pious King in the world.", + "If Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira is a sinner in his daily discharge of duties, in royal administration of state affairs, wherein killing of man and animals is a recognized art, then we can just imagine the amount of sins committed consciously or unconsciously by the untrained population of the Kali-yuga who have no way to perform sacrifice to please the Supreme Lord. The Bhāgavatam says, therefore, that the prime duty of the human being is to satisfy the Supreme Lord by the performance of one's occupational duty. (Bhāg. 1.2.13)", + "Let any man of any place of community, caste or creed be engaged in any sort of occupational duty, but he must agree to perform sacrifices as it is recommended in the scriptures for the particular place, time and person. In the Vedic literatures it is recommended that in Kali-yuga people engage in glorifying the Lord by chanting the holy name of Kṛṣṇa (Kīrtanād eva kṛṣṇasya mukta-saṅgaḥ paraṁ vrajet) without offense. By doing so one can be freed from all sins and thus can attain the highest perfection of life by returning home, back to Godhead. We have already discussed this more than once in this great literature in different places, especially in the introductory portion by sketching the life of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, and still we are repeating the same with a view to bring about peace and prosperity in society.", + "The Lord has declared openly in the Bhagavad-gītā how He becomes pleased with us, and the same process is practically demonstrated in the life and preaching work of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

The story is narrated as follows. Once upon a time the state police caught some thieves who concealed themselves in the hermitage of Maṇḍuka Muni. The police constables, as usual, arrested all the thieves and Maṇḍuka Muni along with them. The Magistrate specifically punished the muni to death by being pierced with a lance. When he was just to be pierced, the news reached the king, and he at once stopped the act on consideration of his being a great muni. The king personally begged the muni's pardon for the mistake of his men, and the saint at once went to Yamarāja, who prescribes the destiny of living beings. Yamarāja, being questioned by the muni, replied that the muni in his childhood pierced an ant with a sharpened straw, and for that reason he was put into difficulty. The muni thought it unwise on the part of Yamarāja that he was punished for his childish innocence, and thus the muni cursed Yamarāja to become a śūdra, and this śūdra incarnation of Yamarāja was known as Vidura, the śūdra brother of Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Mahārāja Pāṇḍu. But this śūdra son of the Kuru dynasty was equally treated by Bhīṣmadeva, along with his other nephews, and in due course Vidura was married with a girl who was also born in the womb of a śūdrāṇī by a brāhmaṇa. Although Vidura did not inherit the property of his father (the brother of Bhīṣmadeva), still he was given sufficient state property by Dhṛtarāṣṭra, the elder brother of Vidura. Vidura was very much attached to his elder brother, and all along he tried to guide him in the right path. During the fratricidal war of Kurukṣetra, Vidura repeatedly implored his elder brother to do justice to the sons of Pāṇḍu, but Duryodhana did not like such interference by his uncle, and thus he practically insulted Vidura.

The conditioned soul or living being in material existence seeks happiness by employing his senses in the modes of materialism, but that cannot give him satisfaction. He then searches after the Supreme Truth by the empiric philosophical speculative method and intellectual feats. But if he does not find the ultimate goal, he again goes down to material activities and engages himself in various philanthrophic and altruistic works, which all fail to give him satisfaction. So neither fruitive activities nor dry philosophical speculation can give one satisfaction because by nature a living being is the eternal servitor of the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and all the Vedic literatures give him direction towards that ultimate end.

It so appeared that they had regained their consciousness after a long period.", + "purport": [ + "Gāndhārī: The ideal chaste lady in the history of the world. She was the daughter of Mahārāja Subala, the King of Gāndhāra (now Kandahar in Kabul), and in her maiden state she worshiped Lord Śiva. Lord Śiva is worshiped generally by the Hindu maidens to get a good husband. Gāndhārī satisfied Lord Śiva, and by his benediction to obtain one hundred sons, she was betrothed to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, despite his being blind forever. When Gāndhārī came to know that her would-be husband was a blind man, to follow her life companion she decided to become voluntarily blind. So she wrapped up her eyes with many silk linens, and she was married to Dhṛtarāṣṭra under the guidance of her elder brother Śakuni. She was the most beautiful girl of her time, and she was equally qualified by her womanly qualities, which endeared every member of the Kaurava court. But despite all her good qualities, she had the natural frailties of a woman, and she was envious of Kuntī when the latter gave birth to a male child. Both the queens were pregnant, but Kuntī first gave birth to a male child. Thus Gāndhārī became angry and gave a blow to her own abdomen. As a result, she gave birth to a lump of flesh only, but since she was a devotee of Vyāsadeva, by instruction of Vyāsadeva the lump was divided into one hundred parts, and each part gradually developed to become a male child. Thus her ambition to become the mother of one hundred sons was fulfilled, and she began to nourish all the children according to her exalted position. When the intrigue of the battlefield of Kurukṣetra was going on, she was not in favor of fighting with the Pāṇḍavas; rather, she blamed Dhṛtarāṣṭra, her husband, for such a fratricidal war. She desired that the state be divided into two parts, for the sons of Pāṇḍu and her own. She was very affected when all her sons died in the Battle of Kurukṣetra, and she wanted to curse Bhīmasena and Yudhiṣṭhira, but she was checked by Vyāsadeva. Her mourning over the death of Duryodhana and Duḥśāsana before Lord Kṛṣṇa is very pitiful, and Lord Kṛṣṇa pacified her by transcendental messages. She was equally aggrieved on the death of Karṇa, and she described to Lord Kṛṣṇa the lamentation of Karṇa’s wife. She was pacified by Śrīla Vyāsadeva when he showed her dead sons, then promoted to the heavenly kingdoms. She died along with her husband in the jungles of the Himalayas near the mouth of the Ganges; she burned in a forest fire. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira performed the death ceremony of his uncle and aunt.", + "Pṛthā: Daughter of Mahārāja Śūrasena and sister of Vasudeva, Lord Kṛṣṇa's father. Later she was adopted by Mahārāja Kuntibhoja, and hence she is known as Kuntī. She is the incarnation of the success potency of the Personality of Godhead. The heavenly denizens from the upper planets used to visit the palace of the King Kuntibhoja, and Kuntī was engaged for their reception. She also served the great mystic sage Durvāsā, and being satisfied by her faithful service, Durvāsā Muni gave her a mantra by which it was possible for her to call for any demigod she pleased. As a matter of inquisitiveness, she at once called for the sun-god, who desired couplement with her, but she declined. But the sun-god assured her immunity from virgin adulteration, and so she agreed to his proposal. As a result of this couplement, she became pregnant, and Karṇa was born by her. By the grace of the sun, she again turned into a virgin girl, but being afraid of her parents, she quitted the newly born child Karṇa. After that, when she actually selected her own husband, she preferred Pāṇḍu to be her husband. Mahārāja Pāṇḍu later on wanted to retire from family life and adopt the renounced order of life. Kuntī refused to allow her husband to adopt such life, but at last Mahārāja Pāṇḍu gave her permission to become a mother of sons by calling some other suitable personalities. Kuntī did not accept this proposal at first, but when vivid examples were set by Pāṇḍu she agreed. Thus by dint of the mantra awarded by Durvāsā Muni she called for Dharmarāja, and thus Yudhiṣṭhira was born. She called for demigod Vāyu (air), and thus Bhīma was born. She called for Indra, the King of heaven, and thus Arjuna was born. The other two sons, namely Nakula and Sahadeva, were begotten by Pāṇḍu himself in the womb of Mādrī. Later on, Mahārāja Pāṇḍu died at an early age, for which Kuntī was so aggrieved that she fainted. Two cowives, namely Kuntī and Mādrī, decided that Kuntī should live for the maintenance of the five minor children, the Pāṇḍavas, and Mādrī should accept the satī rituals by meeting voluntary death along with her husband. This agreement was endorsed by great sages like Śatasṛṅga and others present on the occasion.", + "Later on, when the Pāṇḍavas were banished from the kingdom by the intrigues of Duryodhana, Kuntī followed her sons, and she equally faced all sorts of difficulties during those days, During the forest life one demon girl, Hiḍimbi, wanted Bhīma as her husband, which was refused by Bhīma, but when the girl approached Kuntī and Yudhiṣṭhira, they ordered Bhīma to accept her proposal and give her a son. As a result of this combination, Ghaṭotkach was born, and he fought very valiantly with his father against the Kauravas. In their forest life they lived with a brāhmaṇa family that was in trouble because of one Bakāsura demon, and Kuntī ordered Bhīma to kill the Bakāsura to protect the brāhmaṇa family against troubles created by the demon. She advised Yudhiṣṭhira to start for the Pāñcāla-deśa. Draupadī was gained in this Pāñcāla-deśa by Arjuna, but by order of Kuntī all the five brothers of the Pāṇḍavas became equally the husbands of Pāñcālī or Draupadī. She was married with five Pāṇḍavas in the presence of Vyāsadeva. Kuntīdevī never forgot her first child, Karṇa, and after Karṇa's death in the Battle of Kurukṣetra she lamented and admitted before her other sons that Karṇa was her eldest son prior to her marriage with Mahārāja Pāṇḍu. After the Battle of Kurukṣetra, when Lord Kṛṣṇa was going back home, her prayers for the Lord are excellently explained. Later she went to the forest with Gāndhārī for severe penance. She used to take meals after each thirty days. She finally sat down in profound meditation and later burned to ashes in a forest fire.", + "Draupadī: The most chaste daughter of Mahārāja Drupada and partly an incarnation of goddess Śacī, the wife of Indra. Mahārāja Drupada performed a great sacrifice under the superintendence of the sage Yaja. By his first offering, Dhṛṣṭadyumna was born, and by the second offering, Draupadī was born. She is therefore the sister of Dhṛṣṭadyumna, and she is also named Pāñcālī. The five Pāṇḍavas married her as a common wife, and each of them begot a son in her. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira begot a son named Pratibindh, Bhīmasena begot a son named Sutasome, Arjuna begot Śrutakirti, Nakula begot Satanika, and Sahadeva begot Srutakama. She is described as a most beautiful lady, equal to her mother-in-law Kuntī. During her birth there was an aero-message that she should be called Kṛṣṇā. The same message also declared that she is born to kill many a kṣatriya. By dint of her blessings from Śaṅkara, she was awarded five husbands, equally qualified. When she preferred to select her own husband, princes and kings were invited from all the countries of the world. She was married with the Pāṇḍavas during their exile in the forest, but when they went back home Mahārāja Drupada gave them immense wealth as a dowry. She was well received by all the daughters-in-law of Dhṛtarāṣṭra. When she was lost in a gambling game, she was forcibly dragged into the assembly hall, and an attempt was made to see her naked beauty by Duḥśāsana, even though there were elderly persons like Bhīṣma and Droṇa present. She was a great devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa, and by her praying, the Lord Himself became an unlimited garment to save her from the insult. A demon of the name Jatāsura kidnapped her, but her second husband Bhīmasena killed the demon and saved her. She saved the Pāṇḍavas from the curse of Maharṣi Durvāsā by the grace of Lord Kṛṣṇa. When the Pāṇḍavas lived incognito in the palace of Virāṭa, Kīcaka was attracted by her exquisite beauty, and by arrangement with Bhīma the devil was killed and she was saved. She was very much aggrieved when her five sons were killed by Aśvatthāmā. At the last stage, she accompanied her husband Yudhiṣṭhira and others and fell on the way. The cause of her falling was explained by Yudhiṣṭhira, but when Yudhiṣṭhira entered the heavenly planet he saw Draupadī gloriously present there as the goddess of fortune in the heavenly planet.", + "Subhadrā: Daughter of Vasudeva and sister of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. She was not only a very dear daughter of Vasudeva, but also a very dear sister to both Kṛṣṇa and Baladeva. The two brothers and sister are represented in the famous Jagannātha Temple of Purī, and the temple is still visited by thousands of pilgrims daily. This temple is in remembrance of the Lord's visit at Kurukṣetra during an occasion of solar eclipse and His subsequent meeting with the residents of Vṛndāvana. The meeting of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa during this occasion is a very pathetic story, and Lord Śrī Caitanya in the ecstasy of Rādhārāṇī always pined for Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa at Jagannātha Purī. While Arjuna was at Dvārakā, he wanted to have Subhadrā as his queen, and he expressed his desire to Lord Kṛṣṇa. Śrī Kṛṣṇa knew that His elder brother, Lord Baladeva, was arranging her marriage elsewhere, and since He did not dare to go against the arrangement of Baladeva, He advised Arjuna to kidnap Subhadrā. So when all of them were on a pleasure trip on the Raivata Hill, Arjuna managed to kidnap Subhadrā according to the plan of Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Śrī Baladeva was very angry at Arjuna, and He wanted to kill him, but Lord Kṛṣṇa implored His brother to excuse Arjuna. Then Subhadrā was duly married with Arjuna, and Abhimanyu was born of Subhadrā. At the premature death of Abhimanyu, Subhadrā was very mortified, but on the birth of Parīkṣit she was happy and solaced." + ], + "verse_end": 4 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a2846664 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 1.13.5", + "devanagari": "प्रत्युज्जग्मुः प्रहर्षेण प्राणं तन्व इवागतम्\nअभिसंगम्य विधिवत्परिष्वंगाभिवादनैः", + "transliteration": "pratyujjagmuḥ praharṣeṇa\nprāṇaṁ tanva ivāgatam\nabhisaṅgamya vidhivat\npariṣvaṅgābhivādanaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "prati", + "meanings": [ + "towards" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ujjagmuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "went" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praharṣeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "with great delight" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇam", + "meanings": [ + "life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tanvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āgatam", + "meanings": [ + "returned back" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhisaṅgamya", + "meanings": [ + "approaching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidhivat", + "meanings": [ + "in due form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pariṣvaṅga", + "meanings": [ + "embracing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhivādanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by obeisances." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "With great delight they all approached him, as if life returned to their bodies.

Vidura was more or less partial to the Pāṇḍavas due to their political position. Although Dhṛtarāṣṭra was equally careful for the minor children of Mahārāja Pāṇḍu, he was one of the intriguing parties who wanted to wash away the descendants of Pāṇḍu and replace them by raising his own sons to become the rulers of the kingdom. Mahātmā Vidura could follow this intrigue of Dhṛtarāṣṭra and company, and therefore, even though he was a faithful servitor of his eldest brother Dhṛtarāṣṭra, he did not like his political ambition for the sake of his own sons. He was therefore very careful about the protection of the Pāṇḍavas and their widow mother. Thus he was, so to speak, partial to the Pāṇḍavas, preferring them to the sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, although both of them were equally affectionate in his ordinary eyes. He was equally affectionate to both the camps of nephews in the sense that he always chastised Duryodhana for his intriguing policy against his cousins. He always criticized his elder brother for his policy of encouragement to his sons, and at the same time he was always alert in giving special protection to the Pāṇḍavas. All these different activities of Vidura within the palace politics made him well-known as partial to the Pāṇḍavas. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira has referred to the past history of Vidura before his going away from home for a prolonged pilgrim's journey. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira reminded him that he was equally kind and partial to his grown-up nephews, even after the Battle of Kurukṣetra, a great family disaster.", + "Before the Battle of Kurukṣetra, Dhṛtarāṣṭra's policy was peaceful annihilation of his nephews, and therefore he ordered Purocana to build a house at Vāraṇāvat, and when the building was finished Dhṛtarāṣṭra desired that his brother's family live there for some time. When the Pāṇḍavas were going there in the presence of all the members of the royal family, Vidura tactfully gave instructions to the Pāṇḍavas about the future plan of Dhṛtarāṣṭra. This is specifically described in the Mahābhārata (Ch. 144 Ādi-parva). He indirectly hinted, “A weapon not made of steel or any other material element can be more than sharp to kill an enemy, and he who knows this is never killed.” That is to say, he hinted that the party of the Pāṇḍavas was being sent to Vāraṇavat to be killed, and thus he warned Yudhiṣṭhira to be very careful in their new residential palace. He also gave indications of fire and said that fire cannot extinguish the soul, but it can annihilate the material body. But one who protects the soul can live. Kuntī could not follow such indirect conversations between Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and Vidura, and thus when she inquired from her son about the purport of the conversation, Yudhiṣṭhira replied that from the talks of Vidura it was understood that there was a hint of fire in the house where they were proceeding. Later on, Vidura came in disguise to the Pāṇḍavas and informed them that the housekeeper was going to set fire to the house on the fourteenth night of the waning moon. It was an intrigue of Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Pāṇḍavas might die all together with their mother. And by his warning the Pāṇḍavas escaped through a tunnel underneath the earth so that their escape was also unknown to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, so much so that after setting the fire, the Kauravas were so certain of the death of the Pāṇḍavas that Dhṛtarāṣṭra performed the last rites of death with great cheerfulness. And during the mourning period all the members of the palace became overwhelmed with lamentation, but Vidura did not become so, because of his knowledge that the Pāṇḍavas were alive somewhere. There are many such instances of calamities, and in each of them Vidura gave protection to the Pāṇḍavas on one hand, and on the other he tried to restrain his brother Dhṛtarāṣṭra from such intriguing policies. Therefore, he was always partial to the Pāṇḍavas, just as a bird protects its eggs by his wing." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6a9cd8e7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 1.13.9", + "devanagari": "कया वृत्त्या वर्तितं वश्चरद्भिः क्षितिमण्डलम्\nतीर्थानि क्षेत्रमुख्यानि सेवितानीह भूतले", + "transliteration": "kayā vṛttyā vartitaṁ vaś\ncaradbhiḥ kṣiti-maṇḍalam\ntīrthāni kṣetra-mukhyāni\nsevitānīha bhūtale", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kayā", + "meanings": [ + "by which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛttyā", + "meanings": [ + "means" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vartitam", + "meanings": [ + "maintained your livelihood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "your good self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caradbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "while traveling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣiti-maṇḍalam", + "meanings": [ + "on the surface of the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīrthāni", + "meanings": [ + "places of pilgrimage" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣetra-mukhyāni", + "meanings": [ + "the principal holy places" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sevitāni", + "meanings": [ + "served by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtale", + "meanings": [ + "on this planet." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "While traveling on the surface of the earth, how did you maintain your livelihood?

Then how could he occupy the post of a preacher to instruct such learned kings and kṣatriyas as Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira? The first answer is that even though it is accepted that he was śūdra by birth, because he renounced the world for spiritual enlightenment by the authority of Ṛṣi Maitreya and was thoroughly educated by him in transcendental knowledge, he was quite competent to occupy the post of an ācārya or spiritual preceptor. According to Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, anyone who is conversant in the transcendental knowledge or the science of Godhead, be he a brāhmaṇa or a śūdra, a householder or a sannyāsī, is eligible to become a spiritual master. Even in the ordinary moral codes (maintained by Cāṇakya Paṇḍit, the great politician and moralist) there is no harm in taking lessons from a person who may be by birth less than a śūdra. This is one part of the answer. The other is that Vidura was not actually a śūdra. He was to play the part of a so-called śūdra for one hundred years, being cursed by Maṇḍuka Muni. He was the incarnation of Yamarāja, one of the twelve Mahājanas on the level with such exalted personalities as Brahmā, Nārada, Śiva, Kapila, Bhīṣma, Prahlāda, etc. Being a Mahājana, it is the duty of Yamarāja to preach the cult of devotion to the people of the world, as Nārada, Brahmā, and other Mahājanas do. But Yamarāja is always busy in his plutonic kingdom, punishing the doers of sinful acts. Yamarāja is deputed by the Lord to a particular planet, some hundreds of thousands of miles away from the planet of earth, to take away the corrupt souls after death and convict them in accordance with their respective sinful activities. Thus Yamarāja has very little time to take leave from his responsible office of punishing the wrongdoers. There are more wrong doers than righteous men. Therefore, Yamarāja has to do more work than other demigods who are also authorized agents of the Supreme Lord. But he wanted to preach the glories of the Lord, and therefore by the will of the Lord he was cursed by Maṇḍuka Muni to come into the world in the incarnation of Vidura and work very hard as a great devotee. Such a devotee is neither a śūdra nor a brāhmaṇa. He is transcendental to such divisions of mundane society, just as the Personality of Godhead assumes His incarnation as a hog, but He is neither a hog nor a Brahmā. He is above all mundane creatures. The Lord and His different authorized devotees sometimes have to play the role of many lower creatures to claim the conditioned souls, but both the Lord and His pure devotees are always in the transcendental position. When Yamarāja thus incarnated himself as Vidura, his post was officiated by Aryama, one of the many sons of Kaśyapa and Aditi. The Ādityas are sons of Aditi, and there are twelve Ādityas. Aryama is one of the twelve Ādityas, and therefore it was quite possible for him to take charge of the office of Yamarāja during his one hundred years' absence in the form of Vidura. The conclusion is that Vidura was never a śūdra, but was greater than the purest type of brāhmaṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b9f832c5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 1.13.16", + "devanagari": "युधिष्ठिरो लब्धराज्यो दृष्ट्वा पौत्रं कुलन्धरम्\nभ्रातृभिर्लोकपालाभैर्मुमुदे परया श्रिया", + "transliteration": "yudhiṣṭhiro labdha-rājyo\ndṛṣṭvā pautraṁ kulandharam\nbhrātṛbhir loka-pālābhair\nmumude parayā śriyā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yudhiṣṭhiraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Yudhiṣṭhira" + ] + }, + { + "word": "labdha-rājyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "possessing his paternal kingdom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭvā", + "meanings": [ + "by seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pautram", + "meanings": [ + "the grandson" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kulandharam", + "meanings": [ + "just suitable for the dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātṛbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the brothers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka-pālābhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who were all expert administrators" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mumude", + "meanings": [ + "enjoyed life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parayā", + "meanings": [ + "uncommon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śriyā", + "meanings": [ + "opulence." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Having won his kingdom and observed the birth of one grandson competent to continue the noble tradition of his family, Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira reigned peacefully and enjoyed uncommon opulence in cooperation with his younger brothers, who were all expert administrators to the common people.", + "purport": [ + "Both Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and Arjuna were unhappy from the beginning of the Battle of Kurukṣetra, but even though they were unwilling to kill their own men in the fight, it had to be done as a matter of duty, for it was planned by the supreme will of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa.

Our duration of life is measured, and no one is able to enhance it even by a second against the scheduled time ordained by the supreme will. Such valuable time, especially for the human being, should be cautiously spent because even a second passed away imperceptibly cannot be replaced, even in exchange of thousands of golden coins amassed by hard labor. Every second of human life is meant for making an ultimate solution to the problems of life, i.e. repetition of birth and death and revolving in the cycle of 8,400,000 different species of life. The material body, which is subject to birth and death, diseases and old age, is the cause of all sufferings of the living being, otherwise the living being is eternal: he is never born, nor does he ever die. Foolish persons forget this problem. They do not know at all how to solve the problems of life, but become engrossed in temporary family affairs without knowing that the eternal time is passing away imperceptibly, and their measured duration of life is diminishing every second without any solution of the big problem, namely repetition of birth and death, disease and old age.

Yudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja, or his brothers the Pāṇḍavas, were all engaged in the service of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and they had very little attraction for the illusory happiness of this material world. As we have discussed previously, Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was fixed up in the service of the Lord Mukunda (the Lord who can award salvation), and therefore he had no attraction even for such comforts of life as are available in the kingdom of heaven, because even the happiness obtained in the planet of Brahmaloka is also temporary and illusory. Because the living being is eternal, he can be happy only in the eternal abode of the kingdom of God (Paravyoma) from which no one returns to this region of repeated birth and death, disease and old age. Therefore, any comforts of life or any material happiness, which does not warrant an eternal life, are but illusion for the eternal living being. One who understands this factually is learned, and such a learned person can sacrifice any amount of material happiness to achieve the desired goal known as brahma-sukham or absolute happiness. Real transcendentalists are hungry for this happiness, and as a hungry man cannot be made happy by all comforts of life minus foodstuff, so the hungry man for eternal absolute happiness cannot be satisfied by any amount of material happiness.

As a matter of fact, everyone in the royal palace including the King and his brothers and mother was raptly attending the lectures. But it was known to Vidura that his instructions were especially meant for Dhṛtarāṣṭra, who was too materialistic. The word rājan is especially addressed to Dhṛtarāṣṭra significantly. Dhṛtarāṣṭra was the eldest son of his father, and therefore according to law he was to be installed on the throne of Hastināpura. But because he was blind from birth, he was disqualified from his rightful claim. But he could not forget the bereavement, and his disappointment was somewhat compensated after the death of Pāṇḍu, his younger brother. His younger brother left behind him some minor children, and Dhṛtarāṣṭra became the natural guardian of them, but at heart he wanted to become the factual King and hand over the kingdom to his own sons, headed by Duryodhana. With all these imperial ambitions, Dhṛtarāṣṭra wanted to become a king and contrive all sorts of intrigues in consultation with his brother-in-law Śakuni. But everything failed by the will of the Lord, and at the last stage, even by losing everything, men and money, he wanted to remain as King, being the eldest uncle of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, as a matter of duty, maintained Dhṛtarāṣṭra in royal honor, and Dhṛtarāṣṭra was happily passing away his numbered days in the illusion of becoming a king or the royal uncle of King Yudhiṣṭhira. Vidura, as a saint and as the duty-bound affectionate youngest brother of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, wanted to awaken Dhṛtarāṣṭra from his slumber of disease and old age. Vidura therefore sarcastically addressed Dhṛtarāṣṭra as the “King,” which he was actually not. Everyone is the servant of eternal time, and therefore no one can be king in this material order. King means the person who can order. The celebrated English King wanted to order time and tide, but the time and tide refused to obey his order. Therefore one is a false king in the material world, and Dhṛtarāṣṭra was particularly reminded of this false position and of the factual fearful happenings which had already approached him at that time. Vidura asked him to get out immediately, if he wanted to be saved from the fearful situation which was approaching him fast. He did not ask Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira in that way because he knew that a king like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira is aware of all the fearful situations of this flimsy world, and he would take care of himself, in due course, even though Vidura might not be present at that time." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1584019b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 1.13.19", + "devanagari": "प्रतिक्रिया न यस्येह कुतश्चित्कर्हिचित्प्रभो\nस एष भगवान्कालः सर्वेषां नः समागतः", + "transliteration": "pratikriyā na yasyeha\nkutaścit karhicit prabho\nsa eṣa bhagavān kālaḥ\nsarveṣāṁ naḥ samāgataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pratikriyā", + "meanings": [ + "remedial measure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "there is none" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "of which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kutaścit", + "meanings": [ + "by any means" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karhicit", + "meanings": [ + "or by anyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabho", + "meanings": [ + "O my lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "positively" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kālaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "eternal time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarveṣām", + "meanings": [ + "of all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of us" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samāgataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "arrived." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "This rightful situation cannot be remedied by any person in this material world.

This is explained before Dhṛtarāṣṭra because he might ask Vidura to find out some remedial measure for the imminent fearful situation, as he had ordered many times before. Before ordering, however, Vidura informed Dhṛtarāṣṭra that there was no remedial measure by anyone or from any source in this material world. And because there is no such thing in the material world, death is identical with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as it is said by the Lord Himself in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 12.32).", + "Death cannot be checked by anyone or from any source within this material world.

So he had lost all men and money, and now he was living at the mercy of his nephew, whom he had put into troubles of various types. And despite all these reverses, he thought that he would prolong his life more and more. Vidura wanted to point out to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that everyone has to protect himself by his action and the grace of the Lord. One has to execute his duty faithfully depending for the result on the supreme authority. No friend, no children, no father, no brother, no state and no one else can protect a person who is not protected by the Supreme Lord. One should, therefore, seek the protection of the Supreme Lord, for the human form of life is meant for seeking that protection.

A sādhu is to speak to the householders about the naked truth of life so that they may come to their senses about the precarious life in material existence. Dhṛtarāṣṭra is a typical example of an attached old man in household life. He had become a pauper in the true sense, yet he wanted to live comfortably in the house of the Pāṇḍavas, of whom Bhīma especially is mentioned because personally he killed two prominent sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, namely Duryodhana and Duḥśāsana. These two sons were very much dear to him for their notorious and nefarious activities, and Bhīma is particularly pointed out because he killed these two pet sons. Why was Dhṛtarāṣṭra living there at the house of the Pāṇḍavas? Because he wanted to continue his life comfortably, even at the risk of all humiliation. Vidura, therefore, was astonished how powerful is the urge to continue life. This sense of continuing one's life indicates that a living being is eternally a living entity, and he does not want to change his bodily habitation. The foolish man does not know that a particular term of bodily existence is awarded to him to undergo a term of imprisonment, and the human body is awarded, after many, many births and deaths, as a chance for self-realization to go back home, back to Godhead. But persons like Dhṛtarāṣṭra try to make plans to live there in a comfortable position with profit and interest, for they do not see things as they are. Dhṛtarāṣṭra is blind and continues to hope to live comfortably in the midst of all kinds of reverses of life. A sādhu like Vidura is meant to awaken such blind persons and thus help them go back to Godhead, where life is eternal. Once going there, no one wants to come back to this material world of miseries.

To become narottama, or a first-class human being depending completely on the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, is not possible for any ordinary man. It is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.28) that a person who is completely relieved of all taints of sinful acts can alone depend on the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Personality of Godhead. Dhṛtarāṣṭra was advised by Vidura at least to become a dhīra in the beginning if it were impossible for him to become a sannyāsī or a narottama. Persistently endeavoring on the line of self-realization helps a person to rise to the conditions of a narottama from the stage of a dhīra. The dhīra stage is attained after prolonged practice of the yoga system, but by the grace of Vidura one can attain the stage immediately simply by willing to adopt the means of the dhīra stage, which is the preparatory stage for sannyāsa. The sannyāsa stage is the preparatory stage of paramahaṁsa, or the first-grade devotee of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f50abd1b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 1.13.29", + "devanagari": "एवं राजा विदुरेणानुजेन प्रज्ञाचक्षुर्बोधित आजमीढः\nछित्त्वा स्वेषु स्नेहपाशान्द्रढिम्नो निश्चक्राम भ्रातृसन्दर्शिताध्वा", + "transliteration": "evaṁ rājā vidureṇānujena\nprajñā-cakṣur bodhita ājamīḍhaḥ\nchittvā sveṣu sneha-pāśān draḍhimno\nniścakrāma bhrātṛ-sandarśitādhvā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājā", + "meanings": [ + "King Dhṛtarāṣṭra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidureṇa anujena", + "meanings": [ + "by his younger brother Vidura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajñā", + "meanings": [ + "introspective knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakṣuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bodhita", + "meanings": [ + "being understood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ājamīḍhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Dhṛtarāṣṭra, scion of the family of Ājamīḍha" + ] + }, + { + "word": "chittvā", + "meanings": [ + "by breaking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sveṣu", + "meanings": [ + "regarding kinsmen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sneha-pāśān", + "meanings": [ + "strong network of affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "draḍhimnaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "because of steadfastness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niścakrāma", + "meanings": [ + "got out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātṛ", + "meanings": [ + "brother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sandarśita", + "meanings": [ + "direction to" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhvā", + "meanings": [ + "the path of liberation." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus Mahārāja Dhṛtarāṣṭra, the scion of the family of Ājamīḍha, firmly convinced by introspective knowledge [prajñā], broke at once the strong network of familial affection by his resolute determination.

He said that even by a moment’s association with a pure devotee, one can achieve all perfection. We are not ashamed to admit that this fact was experienced in our practical life. Were we not favored by His Divine Grace Śrīmad Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja, by our first meeting for a few minutes only, it would have been impossible for us to accept this mighty task of describing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in English. Without seeing him at that opportune moment, we could have become a very great business magnate, but never would we have been able to walk the path of liberation and be engaged in the factual service of the Lord under instructions of His Divine Grace. And here is another practical example by the action of Vidura's association with Dhṛtarāṣṭra. Mahārāja Dhṛtarāṣṭra was tightly bound in a network of material affinities related to politics, economy and family attachment, and he did everything in his power to achieve so-called success in his planned projects, but he was frustrated from the beginning to the end so far as his material activities were concerned. And yet, despite his life of failure, he achieved the greatest of all success in self-realization by the forceful instructions of a pure devotee of the Lord, who is the typical emblem of a sādhu. The scriptures enjoin, therefore, that one should associate with sādhus only, rejecting all other kinds of association, and by doing so one will have ample opportunity to hear the sādhus who can cut to pieces the bonds of illusory affection in the material world. It is a fact that the material world is a great illusion because everything appears to be a tangible reality, but the next moment everything is evaporated like the dashing foam of the sea or a cloud in the sky. A cloud in the sky undoubtedly appears to be a reality because it rains, and due to rains so many temporary green things appear, but in the ultimate issue, everything disappears, namely the cloud, rain and green vegetation, all in due course. But the sky remains, and the varieties of sky or luminaries also remain forever. Similarly the Absolute Truth, which is compared to the sky, remains eternally, and the temporary cloudlike illusion comes and goes away. Foolish living beings are attracted by the temporary cloud, but intelligent men are more concerned with the eternal sky with all its variegatedness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/30.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/30.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..befcfd88 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/30.json @@ -0,0 +1,106 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 30, + "reference": "SB 1.13.30", + "devanagari": "पतिं प्रयान्तं सुबलस्य पुत्री पतिव्रता चानुजगाम साध्वी\nहिमालयं न्यस्तदण्डप्रहर्षं मनस्विनाम् इव सत्सम्प्रहारः", + "transliteration": "patiṁ prayāntaṁ subalasya putrī\npati-vratā cānujagāma sādhvī\nhimālayaṁ nyasta-daṇḍa-praharṣaṁ\nmanasvinām iva sat samprahāraḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "patim", + "meanings": [ + "her husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prayāntam", + "meanings": [ + "while leaving home" + ] + }, + { + "word": "subalasya", + "meanings": [ + "of King Subala" + ] + }, + { + "word": "putrī", + "meanings": [ + "worthy daughter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pati-vratā", + "meanings": [ + "devoted to her husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anujagāma", + "meanings": [ + "followed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhvī", + "meanings": [ + "the chaste" + ] + }, + { + "word": "himālayam", + "meanings": [ + "towards the Himalayan mountains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nyasta-daṇḍa", + "meanings": [ + "one who has accepted the rod of the renounced order" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praharṣam", + "meanings": [ + "object of delight" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manasvinām", + "meanings": [ + "of the great fighters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat", + "meanings": [ + "legitimate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samprahāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "good lashing." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Gāndhārī, who was the daughter of King Subala of Kandahar [or Gāndhara], followed her husband, seeing that he was going to the Himalayan mountains, which are the delight of those who have accepted the staff of the renounced order like fighters who have accepted a good lashing from the enemy.", + "purport": [ + "Saubalinī or Gāndhārī, daughter of King Subala and wife of King Dhṛtarāṣṭra, was ideal as a devoted wife to her husband.

Similarly, as a woman she could remain at home or at her father’s house, but as a chaste and gentle lady she followed her husband without consideration. Instructions for the renounced order of life were imparted to Dhṛtarāṣṭra by Vidura, and Gāndhārī was by the side of her husband. But he did not ask her to follow him because he was at that time fully determined, like a great warrior who faces all kinds of dangers in the battlefield. He was no longer attracted to so-called wife or relatives, and he decided to start alone, but as a chaste lady Gāndhārī decided to follow her husband till the last moment. Mahārāja Dhṛtarāṣṭra accepted the order of vānaprastha, and at this stage the wife is allowed to remain as a voluntary servitor, but in the sannyāsa stage no wife can stay with her former husband. A sannyāsī is considered to be a dead man civilly, and therefore the wife becomes a civil widow without connection with her former husband.

The Māyāvādī sannyāsīs are ekadaṇḍi-svāmīs, whereas the Vaiṣṇava sannyāsīs are known as tridaṇḍi-svāmīs, or more distinctly, tridaṇḍi gosvāmīs, in order to be distinguished from the Māyāvādī philosophers. The ekadaṇḍi svāmīs are mostly fond of the Himalayas, but the Vaiṣṇava sannyāsīs are fond of Vṛndāvana and Purī. The Vaiṣṇava sannyāsīs are narottamas, whereas the Māyāvādī sannyāsīs are dhīras.

The laws of the Lord are severe because they cannot be disobeyed in any circumstance. The manmade laws may be evaded by cunning outlaws, but in the codes of the supreme lawmaker, there is not the slightest possibility of neglecting the laws. A slight change in the course of God-made law can bring about a massive danger to be faced by the lawbreaker. Such laws of the Supreme are generally known as the codes of religion under different conditions, but the principle of religion everywhere is one and the same, namely, obey the orders of the Supreme God. (Codes of Religion) That is the condition of material existence. All living beings in the material world have taken up the risk of conditioned life by their own selection and are thus entrapped by the laws of material nature. The only way to get out of the entanglement is to agree to obey the Supreme. But instead of becoming free from the clutches of māyā or illusion, foolish human beings become bound up by different nomenclatures, being designated as brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas, śūdras, Hindus, Mussulmans, Indians, Europeans, Americans, Chinese, and many others, and thus they carry out the orders of the Supreme Lord under the influence of respective scriptural or legislative injunctions. The statutory laws of the state are imperfect imitation replicas or Religious Codes. The secular state, or the godless state, allows the citizens to break the laws of God, but restricts them from disobeying the laws of the state; the result is that the people in general suffer more by breaking the laws of God than by obeying the imperfect laws made by man. Every man is imperfect by constitution under conditions of material existence, and there is not the least possibility of enacting a perfect legislation by the most materially advanced man. On the other hand, there is no such imperfection in the laws of God. If they are educated in the laws of God, there is no necessity of a makeshift legislative council of aimless men. There is necessity of change in the makeshift laws of man, but there is no change in the God-made laws because they are made perfect by the all-perfect Personality of Godhead. (Codes of Religion) Scriptural injunctions are made by liberated representatives of God in consideration of different conditions of living, and by carrying on the orders of the Lord gradually, the conditioned living beings become free from the clutches of material existence. The factual position of the living being is, however, that he is the eternal servitor of the Supreme Lord. In his liberated state he renders service to the Lord in transcendental love and thus enjoys a life of full freedom, even sometimes on the equal level with the Lord or sometimes more than the Lord. But in the conditioned material world, every living being wants to be the Lord of other living beings, and thus by the illusion of māyā such mentality of lording it becomes a cause of further extension of conditional life. So in the material world the living being is still more conditioned, until he surrenders unto the Lord by reviving his original state of eternal servitor-ship.

The Supreme Lord is present as the localized Paramātmā in the heart of every living being, as it is said in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 13.22), and therefore He knows everything of our activities in every stage of our lives. The reactions of our actions are rewarded by Him by placing us in some particular place. A rich man gets his son born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but the child who came as the rich man’s son deserved such a place, and therefore he is placed there by the will of the Lord. And at a particular moment when the child has to be removed from that place, he is also carried by the will of the Supreme, even if the child or the father does not wish to be separated from the happy relation. The same thing happens in the case of a poor man also. Neither rich man nor poor man has any control over such meetings or separations of living beings. The example of a player and his playthings should not be misunderstood. One may argue that the Lord is bound to award the reactionary results of our own actions, and thus the example of a player cannot be applied. But it is not so. We must always remember that the Lord is the supreme will, and He is not bound by any law. Generally the law of karma is that one is awarded the result of one’s own actions, but in special cases, by the will of the Lord, such resultant actions are changed also. But this change can be effected by the will of the Lord only, and no other. Therefore, the example of the player cited in this verse is quite appropriate, for the Supreme Will is absolutely free to do whatever He likes; and because He is all-perfect, there is no mistake in any of His actions or reactions. These changes of resultant actions are especially rendered by the Lord when a pure devotee is involved. It is assured in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.30-31) that the Lord saves a pure devotee who has surrendered unto Him without reservation from all sorts of reactions of sins, and there is no doubt about this. There are hundreds of examples of this by the Lord in the history of the world. If the Lord is able to change the resultant reactions of one’s past deeds, then certainly He is not Himself bound up by any action or reaction of His own deeds.

The spiritual regulative principles, however, do not allow a man to slaughter weaker animals on one side and teach others peaceful coexistence. If man does not allow the animals peaceful coexistence, how can he expect peaceful existence in human society?

The preliminary processes are the sitting posture, meditation, spiritual thoughts, manipulation of air passing within the body, and gradual situation in trance, facing the Absolute Person Paramātmā. Such mechanical ways of rising up to the spiritual platform prescribe some regulative principles of taking bath daily three times, fasting as far as possible, sitting and concentrating the mind on spiritual matters and thus gradually becoming free from viṣaya or material objectives. Material existence means to be absorbed in the material objective, which is simply illusory. House, country, family, society, children, property, business, etc., are some of the material coverings of the spirit ātmā, and the yoga system helps one to become free from all these illusory thoughts and gradually turn towards the Absolute Person Paramātmā. By material association and education, we learn simply to concentrate on flimsy things, but yoga is the process of forgetting them altogether. Modern so-called yogīs and yoga systems manifest some magical feats, and ignorant persons are attracted by such false things, or they accept the yoga system as a cheap healing process for diseases of the gross body. But factually the yoga system is the process of learning to forget what we have acquired throughout the struggle for existence. Dhṛtarāṣṭra was all along engaged in improving family affairs by raising the standard of living of his sons or by usurping the property of the Pāṇḍavas for the sake of his own sons. These are common affairs for a man grossly materialistic and without knowledge of the spiritual force. He does not see how this can drag one from heaven to hell. By the grace of his younger brother Vidura, Dhṛtarāṣṭra was enlightened and could see his grossly illusory engagements, and by such enlightenment he was able to leave home for spiritual relaization. Śrī Nāradadeva was just foretelling the way of his spiritual progress in a place which was sanctified by the flow of the celestial Ganges. Drinking water only without solid food is also considered fasting. This is necessary for advancement of spiritual knowledge. A foolish man wants to be a cheap yogī without observing the regulative principles. A man who has no control over the tongue at first can hardly become a yogī. Yogī and bhogī are two opposite terms. The bhogī or the merryman who eats and drinks cannot be a yogī, for a yogī is never allowed to eat and drink unrestrictedly. We may note with profit how Dhṛtarāṣṭra began his yoga system by drinking water only and sitting calmly in a place with a spiritual atmosphere, deeply absorbed in the thoughts of the Lord Hari, the Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/54.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/54.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2f2b139c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/54.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 54, + "reference": "SB 1.13.54", + "devanagari": "जितासनो जितश्वासः प्रत्याहृतषडिन्द्रियः\nहरिभावनया ध्वस्त रजःसत्त्वतमोमलः", + "transliteration": "jitāsano jitaśvāsaḥ\npratyā-hṛta-ṣaḍ-indriyaḥ\nhari-bhāvanayā dhvasta-\nrajaḥ-sattva-tamomalaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "jita-āsanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who has controlled the sitting posture" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jita-śvāsaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who has controlled the breathing process" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyā-hṛta", + "meanings": [ + "turning back" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṭ", + "meanings": [ + "six" + ] + }, + { + "word": "indriyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hari", + "meanings": [ + "the Absolute Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāvanayā", + "meanings": [ + "absorbed in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhvasta", + "meanings": [ + "conquered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rajaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "passion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sattva", + "meanings": [ + "goodness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "ignorance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "malaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "contaminations." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One who has controlled the sitting postures [the yogic āsana] and the breathing process can turn the senses toward the Absolute Personality of Godhead and thus become immuned from the contaminations of the modes of material nature, namely mundane goodness, passion and ignorance.", + "purport": [ + "The preliminary activities of the way of yoga are āsana, prāṇāyāma, pratyāhāra, dhyāna, dhāraṇā, etc. Mahārāja Dhṛtarāṣṭra was to attain success in those preliminary actions because he was seated in a sanctified place and was concentrating upon one objective, namely the Supreme Personality of Godhead (Hari). Thus all his senses were being engaged in the service of the Lord. This process directly helps the devotee to get freedom from the contaminations of the three material modes of nature. Even the highest mode, the material mode of goodness, is also a cause of material bondage, and what to speak of the other qualities, namely passion and ignorance. Passion and ignorance increase the material propensities of hankering for material enjoyment, and a strong sense of lust provokes the accumulation of wealth and power. One who has conquered these two base mentalities and has raised himself on the platform of goodness, which is full of knowledge and morality, cannot also control the senses, namely the eyes, the tongue, the nose, the ear and touch. But one who has surrendered himself unto the lotus feet of Lord Hari, as above mentioned, can transcend all influences of the modes of material nature and be fixed in the service of the Lord. The bhakti-yoga process, therefore, directly applies senses to the loving service of the Lord. This prohibits the performer from engaging in material activities. This process of turning the senses from material attachment to the loving transcendental service of the Lord is called pratyāhāra, and the very process is called prāṇāyāma, ultimately ending in samādhi, or absorption in pleasing the Supreme Lord Hari by all means." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/55.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/55.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e3b46055 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/13/verses/55.json @@ -0,0 +1,88 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 55, + "reference": "SB 1.13.55", + "devanagari": "विज्ञानात्मनि संयोज्य क्षेत्रज्ञे प्रविलाप्य तम्\nब्रह्मण्य् आत्मानम् आधारे घटाम्बरम् इवाम्बरे", + "transliteration": "vijñānātmani saṁyojya\nkṣetrajñe pravilāpya tam\nbrahmaṇy ātmānam ādhāre\nghaṭāmbaram ivāmbare", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vijñāna", + "meanings": [ + "purified identity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmani", + "meanings": [ + "of intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁyojya", + "meanings": [ + "perfectly fixing up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣetrajñe", + "meanings": [ + "in the matter of the living being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pravilāpya", + "meanings": [ + "merging" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmaṇi", + "meanings": [ + "in the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "pure living being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādhāre", + "meanings": [ + "in the reservoir" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghaṭāmbaram", + "meanings": [ + "sky within the block" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ambare", + "meanings": [ + "in the supreme sky." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Dhṛtarāṣṭra will have to amalgamate his pure identity with intelligence and then merge into the Supreme Being with knowledge of his qualitative oneness, as a living entity, with the Supreme Brahman.

A living being in his pure state is not conditioned by the laws because in his pure state he is conscious that a living being is eternally subservient to the Supreme Being, and thus it is always good for him to remain subservient, instead of falsely trying to lord it over the property of the Supreme Lord. In the conditioned state the living being is not satisfied even if he actually becomes the lord of all that he surveys, which he never becomes, and therefore he becomes the victim of all kinds of cheating, even with his nearest and most intimate, relations. In such an unsatisfactory state of affairs, there is no harmony, even between father and sons or between husband and wife.

In the Bhagavad-gītā there are different statements by the Lord, and each of these statements is meant for different plenary portions or portions of the plenary portions. For example, Śrī Kṛṣṇa the Lord says in the Bhagavad-gītā:", + "\"Whenever and wherever there is a decline in religious practice, O descendant of Bharata, and a predominant rise of irreligion—at that time I descend Myself.\" (Bg. 4.7)", + "“O son of Kuntī [Arjuna], I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and the moon, the syllable om in the Vedic mantras; I am the sound in ether and ability in man.” (Bg. 7.8)", + "\"If I should cease to work, then all these worlds would be put to ruination. I would also be the cause of creating unwanted population, and I would thereby destroy the peace of all sentient beings.\" (Bg. 3.24)", + "\"Whatever action is performed by a great man, common men will follow in his footsteps. And whatever standards he sets by exemplary acts, all the world pursues.\" (Bg. 3.21)", + "All the above statements of the Lord apply to different plenary portions of the Lord, namely His expansions of Saṅkarṣaṇa, Vāsudeva, Pradyumna, Aniruddha, Nārāyaṇa, etc. All these expansions are He Himself by different transcendental expansions, and still the Lord as Śrī Kṛṣṇa functions in a different sphere of transcendental exchange with different grades of devotees. And yet Lord Kṛṣṇa as He is appears once in the day of Brahmā (or after a lapse of 864 trillion solar years) in each and every universe, and all His transcendental pastimes are displayed in each and every universe in a routine spool. But in that routine spool the functions of Lord Kṛṣṇa, Lord Vāsudeva, etc., are complex problems for the layman. There is no difference between the Lord's Self and the Lord's transcendental body. The expansions execute differential activities. When the Lord, however, appears in His person as Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, His other plenary portions also join in Him by His inconceivable potency called yogamāyā, and thus the Lord Kṛṣṇa of Vṛndāvana is different from the Lord Kṛṣṇa of Mathurā or the Lord Kṛṣṇa of Dvārakā. The virāṭa rūpa of Lord Kṛṣṇa is also different from Him, by His inconceivable potency. The virāṭa rūpa exhibited on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra is the material conception of His form. Therefore when Lord Kṛṣṇa was apparently killed by the bow and arrow of the hunter, it should be understood that the Lord left His so-called material body in the material world. The Lord is kaivalya, and for Him there is no difference between matter and spirit because everything is created from Him. Therefore His quitting one sort of body or accepting another body does not mean that He is like the ordinary living being. All such activities are simultaneously one and different by His inconceivable potency. When Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was lamenting the possibility of His disappearance, it was just in pursuance of a custom of lamenting the disappearance of a great friend, but factually the Lord never quits His transcendental body, as is misconceived by less intelligent persons. Such less intelligent persons have been condemned by the Lord Himself in the Bhagavad-gītā, and they are known as the mūḍhas. That the Lord left His body means that He left again His plenary portions in the respective dhāmas (transcendental abodes), as He left His virāṭa rūpa in the material world." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/14/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/14/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4e59c572 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/14/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 1.14.9", + "devanagari": "यस्मान्नः सम्पदो राज्यं दाराः प्राणाः कुलं प्रजाः\nआसन्सपत्नविजयो लोकाश्च यदनुग्रहात्", + "transliteration": "yasmān naḥ sampado rājyaṁ\ndārāḥ prāṇāḥ kulaṁ prajāḥ\nāsan sapatna-vijayo\nlokāś ca yad-anugrahāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "our" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sampadaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "opulence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājyam", + "meanings": [ + "kingdom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dārāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "good wives" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "existence of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kulam", + "meanings": [ + "dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "subjects" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsan", + "meanings": [ + "have become possible" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sapatna", + "meanings": [ + "competitors" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "conquering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "future accomodation in higher planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "by whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anugrahāt", + "meanings": [ + "by the mercy of." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "From Him only, all our kingly opulence, our good wives, lives, progeny, our control over our subjects, victory over our enemies and future accomodations in higher planets, have become possible.

Prosperity earned by one's personal endeavor also depends on the mercy of the Lord. Personal labor must be there in addition to the Lord's benediction, but without the Lord's benediction no one is successful simply by personal labor. The modernized man of Kali-yuga believes in personal endeavor and denies the benediction of the Supreme Lord. Even a great sannyāsī of India delivered speeches in Chicago protesting the benedictions of the Supreme Lord. But as far as Vedic śāstras are concerned, as we find in the pages of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the ultimate sanction for all success rests in the hands of the Supreme Lord. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira admits this truth in his personal success, and it behooves one to follow in the footsteps of a great king and devotee of the Lord to make life a full success. If one could achieve success without the sanction of the Lord then no medical practitioner would fail to cure a patient. Despite the most advanced treatment of a suffering patient by the most up-to-date medical practitioner, there is death, and even in the most hopeless case, without medical treatment, a patient is cured astonishingly. Therefore the conclusion is that God's sanction is the immediate cause for all happenings, good or bad.

The Viṣṇu-tattva living beings are expansions of the Supreme Lord, and all of them are qualitatively and quantitatively equal with the Lord. But expansions of the jīva-śakti, the category of the ordinary living beings, are not at all equal with the Lord. One who considers the jīva-śakti and the Viṣṇu-tattva to be on an equal level is considered a condemned soul of the world. Śrī Rāma or Balarāma is the protector of the devotees of the Lord. Baladeva acts as the spiritual master of all devotees, and by His causeless mercy the fallen souls are delivered. Śrī Baladeva appeared as Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu during the advent of Lord Caitanya, and the great Lord Nityānanda Prabhu exhibited His causeless mercy by delivering a pair of extremely fallen souls, namely Jagai and Madhai.

The Lord remembers them all, but His associates, although liberated souls, forget due to their being tatasthā-śakti, or marginal potency of the Lord. That is the difference between the Viṣṇu-tattva and jīva-tattvas. The jīva-tattvas are infinitesimal potential particles of the Lord, and therefore they require the protection of the Lord at all times. And to the eternal servitors of the Lord, the Lord is pleased to give all protection at all times. The liberated souls never, therefore, think themselves as free as the Lord or as powerful as the Lord, but they always seek the protection of the Lord in all circumstances, both in the material world and in the spiritual world. This dependence of the liberated soul is constitutional, just as sparks of a fire can exhibit the glow of fire along with the fire and not independently. Independently the glow of the sparks is extinguished, although the quality of fire or the glowing is there.

He is Bhagavān svayam, or the original Supreme Personality of Godhead full with all opulences, all power, all knowledge, all beauty, all fame and all renunciation. No one is equal to or greater than Him. He is Govinda because He is the pleasure of the cows and the senses. Those who have purified their senses by devotional service of the Lord can render unto Him real service and thereby derive transcendental pleasure out of such purified senses. Only the impure conditioned living being cannot derive any pleasure from the senses, but being illusioned by false pleasures of the senses, he becomes servant of the senses. Therefore, we need His protection for our own interest. The Lord is the protector of cows and the brahminical culture. A society which is devoid of cow protection and brahminical culture is not under the direct protection of the Lord, just as the prisoners in the jails are not under the protection of the king but under the protection of a severe agent of the king. Without cow protection and cultivation of the brahminical qualities in human society, at least for a section of members of the society, no human civilization can prosper at any length. By brahminical culture or by developing the dormant qualities of goodness, namely truthfulness, equanimity, sense control, forbearance, simplicity, general knowledge, transcendental knowledge, and firm faith in the Vedic wisdom, one can become a brāhmaṇa and thus see the Lord as He is. And after surpassing the brahminical perfection, one has to become a devotee of the Lord so that His loving affection in the form of proprietor, master, friend, son and lover can be transcendentally achieved. The stage of a devotee, which attracts the transcendental affection of the Lord, does not develop unless one has developed the qualities of a brāhmaṇa as above mentioned. The Lord is inclined to a brāhmaṇa of quality and not of false prestige. Those who are less than a brāhmaṇa by qualification cannot establish any relation with the Lord, just as fire cannot be kindled from the raw earth unless there is wood, although there is a relation between wood and the earth. Since the Lord is all-perfect in Himself, there could not be any question of His welfare, and Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira refrained from asking this question. He simply inquired about His residential place, Dvārakā Purī, where pious men assemble. The Lord stays only where pious men assemble and takes pleasure in their glorifying the Supreme Truth.

Such an assembly house is never meant for any state on the globe because the human being on the earth is unable to construct it, however far a particular state may be materially advanced. But during the time of Lord Kṛṣṇa's presence on the earth, the members of the Yadu family forcibly brought the celestial assembly house to earth and placed it at Dvārakā. They were able to use such force because they were certain of the indulgence and protection of the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa. In other words, the Lord is provided with the best things in the universe by His pure devotees. Lord Kṛṣṇa was provided with all kinds of comforts and facilities available within the universe by the members of the Yadu dynasty, and in return such servitors of the Lord were protected and fearless.", + "A forgetful conditioned soul is fearful. But a liberated soul is never fearful, just as a small child completely dependent on the mercy of his father is never fearful of anyone. Fearfulness is a sort of illusion for the living being when he is in slumber and forgetting his eternal relation with the Lord. Since the living being is never to die by his constitution, as stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 2.20), then what is the cause of fearfulness? A person may be fearful of a tiger in dream, but another man who is awake by his side sees no tiger there. The tiger is a myth for both of them, namely the person dreaming and the person awake, because actually there is no tiger; but the man forgetful of his awakened life is fearful, whereas the man who has not forgotten his position is not at all fearful. Thus the members of Yadu dynasty were fully awake in their service of the Lord, and therefore there was no tiger for them to be afraid of at any time. Even if there were a real tiger, the Lord was there to protect them." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/14/verses/39.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/14/verses/39.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e6667020 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/14/verses/39.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 39, + "reference": "SB 1.14.39", + "devanagari": "कच्चित्ते ऽनामयं तात भ्रष्टतेजा विभासि मे\nअलब्धमानो ऽवज्ञातः किं वा तात चिरोषितः", + "transliteration": "kaccit te 'nāmayaṁ tāta\nbhraṣṭa-tejā vibhāsi me\nalabdha-māno 'vajñātaḥ\nkiṁ vā tāta ciroṣitaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kaccit", + "meanings": [ + "whether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anāmayam", + "meanings": [ + "health is all right" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāta", + "meanings": [ + "my dear brother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhraṣṭa", + "meanings": [ + "bereft of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tejāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "luster" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhāsi", + "meanings": [ + "appear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "to me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alabdha-mānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without respect" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avajñātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "neglected" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "whether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāta", + "meanings": [ + "my dear brother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ciroṣitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "because of long residence." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My brother Arjuna, please tell me whether your health is all right.

The higher caste men, namely the brāhmaṇas and kṣatriyas, could accept a woman of the vaiśya or the śūdra community, but a man from the lower castes could not contact a woman of the higher caste. Even a kṣatriya could not contact a woman of the brāhmaṇa caste. The wife of a brāhmaṇa is considered one of the seven mothers (namely one's own mother, the wife of the spiritual master or teacher, the wife of a brāhmaṇa, the wife of a king, the cow, the nurse, and the earth). Such contact between man and woman was known as uttama and adhama. Contact of a brāhmaṇa with a kṣatriya woman is uttama, but the contact of a kṣatriya with a woman of a brāhmaṇa is adhama and therefore condemned. A woman approaching a man for contact should never be refused, but at the same time the discretion as above mentioned may also be considered. Bhīma was approached by Hiḍimbī from a community lower than the śūdras, and Yayāti refused to marry the daughter of Śukrācārya because of his being a brāhmaṇa. Vyāsadeva, a brāhmaṇa, was called to beget Pāṇḍu and Dhṛtarāṣṭra. Satyavatī belonged to a family of fishermen, but Parāśara, a great brāhmaṇa, begot in her Vyāsadeva. So there are so many examples of such contacts with woman, but in all cases the contacts were not abominable nor were the results of such contacts bad. Contact between man and woman is natural, but that also must be carried out under regulated principles so that social consecration may not be disturbed nor unwanted worthless population be increased for the unrest of the world.", + "It is abominable for a kṣatriya to be defeated by one who is inferior in strength or equal in strength. If one is defeated at all, he should be defeated by some superior power. Arjuna was defeated by Bhīṣmadeva, and Lord Kṛṣṇa saved him from the danger. This was not insult for Arjuna because Bhīṣmadeva was far superior to Arjuna in all ways, namely age, respect and strength. But Karṇa was equal to Arjuna, and therefore Arjuna was in crisis when fighting with Karṇa. It was felt by Arjuna, and therefore Karṇa was killed even by crooked means.

When the Lord descends on the earth along with His eternal ever liberated associates, He not only displays the divine energy possessed by Himself, but He also empowers His associate devotees with the required energy to execute His mission of incarnation. It is also stated in the Bhagavad-gītā, Fourth Chapter, that the Lord and His eternal associates descend on the earth many times, but the Lord remembers all the different roles of incarnations, whereas the associates, by His supreme will, forget them. Similarly, the Lord takes away with Him all His associates when He disappears from the earth. The power and energy which were bestowed upon Arjuna were required for fulfillment of the mission of the Lord, but when His mission was fulfilled, the emergency powers were withdrawn from Arjuna because the astounding powers of Arjuna, which were astonishing even to the denizens of heaven, were no longer required, and they were now meant for going back home, back to Godhead. If endowment of powers and withdrawal of powers by the Lord are possible even for a great devotee like Arjuna, or even the demigods in heaven, then what to speak of the ordinary living beings who are but figs compared to such great souls. The lesson is, therefore, that no one should be puffed up for his borrowed powers from the Lord. The sane man should rather feel obliged to the Lord for such benefaction and must utilize such power for the service of the Lord.

The condition was that out of the princely order, one must be able to pierce the fish's eyes through the wheel of protection, and no one would be allowed to look up at the target. On the ground there was a water pot in which the target and wheel were reflected, and one had to fix his aim towards the target by looking at the trembling water in the pot. Mahārāja Drupada well knew that only Arjuna or alternately Karṇa could successfully carry out the plan. But still he wanted to hand his daughter to Arjuna. And in the assembly of the princely order, when Dhṛṣṭadyumna, the brother of Draupadī, introduced all the princes to his grown-up sister, Karṇa was also present in the game. But Draupadī tactfully avoided Karṇa as the rival of Arjuna, and she expressed her desire through her brother Dhṛṣṭadyumna that she was unable to accept anyone who was less than a kṣatriya. The vaiśyas and the śūdras are less important than the kṣatriyas. Karṇa was known as a son of a carpenter, who is a śūdra. So Draupadī avoided Karṇa by this plea. When Arjuna, in the dress of a poor brāhmaṇa, pierced the difficult target, everyone was astonished, and all of them, especially Karṇa, offered a stiff fight to Arjuna, but as usual by the grace of Lord Kṛṣṇa he was able to emerge very successful in the princely fight and thus gain the valuable hand of Kṛṣṇā, or Draupadī.

Arjuna saved his life, and as a result of this the demon felt obliged. He reciprocated by building a wonderful assembly house for the Pāṇḍavas, which attracted the extraordinary attention of all state princes. They felt the supernatural power of the Pāṇḍavas, and thus without grudge all of them submitted and paid tributes to the Emperor. The demons possess wonderful and supernatural powers to create material wonders. But they are always disturbing elements of the society. The modern demons are the harmful material scientists who create some material wonders for disturbance in the society. For example, the creation of the nuclear weapons has caused some panic in the human society. Maya was also a materialist like that, and he knew the art of creating wonderful things. And yet Lord Kṛṣṇa wanted to kill him. When he was chased both by the fire and the wheel of Lord Kṛṣṇa, he took shelter of a devotee like Arjuna, who saved him from the wrath of the fire of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Devotees are therefore more merciful than the Lord, and in devotional service the mercy of a devotee is more valuable than the mercy of the Lord. Both the fire and the Lord ceased from chasing the demon as soon as both of them saw that the demon was given shelter by a devotee like Arjuna. The demon, feeling obliged to Arjuna, wanted to do him some service to show his gratefulness, but Arjuna declined to accept anything from him in exchange. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, however, being pleased with Maya for his taking shelter of a devotee, asked him to render service unto King Yudhiṣṭhira by building a wonderful assembly house.

His father, King Bṛhadratha, was also a very prosperous and powerful King of Magadha, but he had no son, although he married two daughters of the King of Kāśī. Being disappointed in not getting a son from either of the two queens, the King, along with his wives, left home to live in the forest for austerities, but in the forest he was benedicted by one great ṛṣi to have a son, and he gave him one mango to be eaten by the queens. The queens did so and were very soon pregnant. The King was very happy to see the queens bearing children, but when the ripe time approached, the queens delivered one child in two parts, one from each of the queens' wombs. The two parts were thrown in the forest, where a great she-demon used to live, and she was glad to have some delicate flesh and blood from the newly born child. Out of curiosity she joined the two parts, and the child became complete and regained life. The she-demon was known as Jarā, and being compassionate on the childless King, she went to the King and presented him with the nice child. The King was very pleased with the she-demon and wanted to reward her according to her desire. The she-demon expressed her desire that the child be named after her, and thus the child was surnamed Jarāsandha, or one who was joined by Jarā the she-demon. In fact, this Jarāsandha was born as one of the parts and parcels of the demon Viprachitti. The saint by whose benediction the queens bore the child was called Candra Kousik, who foretold of the child before his father Bṛhadratha.", + "Since he possessed demoniacal qualities from birth, naturally he became a great devotee of Lord Śiva, who is the lord of all ghostly and demonic men. Rāvaṇa was a great devotee of Lord Śiva, and so also King Jarāsandha. He used to sacrifice all arrested kings before Lord Mahābhairava (Śiva), and by his military power he defeated many small kings and arrested them to butcher before Mahābhairava. There are many devotees of Lord Mahābhairava or Kālabhairava in the province of Bihar, formerly called Magadha. Jarāsandha was a relative of Kaṁsa, the maternal uncle of Kṛṣṇa, and therefore after Kaṁsa's death King Jarāsandha became a great enemy of Kṛṣṇa, and there were many fights between Jarāsandha and Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa wanted to kill him, but He also wanted that those who served as military men for Jarāsandha might not be killed. Therefore a plan was adopted to kill him. Kṛṣṇa, Bhīma and Arjuna together went to Jarāsandha in the dress of poor brāhmaṇas and begged charity from King Jarāsandha. Jarāsandha never refused charity to any brāhmaṇa, and he performed many sacrifices also, yet he was not on a par with devotional service. Lord Kṛṣṇa, Bhīma and Arjuna asked Jarāsandha the facility of combating him, and it was settled that Jarāsandha would fight with Bhīma only. So all of them were both guests and combatants of Jarāsandha, and Bhīma and Jarāsandha fought every day for several days. Bhīma became disappointed, but Kṛṣṇa gave him hints about Jarāsandha's being joined together as an infant, and thus Bhīma dissected him again and so killed him. All the kings who were detained in the concentration camp to be killed before Mahābhairava were thus released by Bhīma.

His name is associated with many historical events, and it appears that the great mystic could be both easily satisfied and easily annoyed like Lord Śiva. When he was satisfied, he could do tremendous good to the servitor, but if he was dissatisfied he could bring about the greatest calamity.

It is understood that he was a plenary incarnation of Lord Śiva, and thus he could easily be either satisfied or annoyed. He was a great devotee of Lord Śiva, and by his order he accepted the priesthood of King Śvetaketu because of the King's performance of sacrifice for one hundred years. Sometimes he used to visit the parliamentary assembly of the heavenly kingdom of Indradeva. He could travel in space by his great mystic powers, and it is understood that he travelled a great distance through space, even up to the Vaikuṇṭha planets beyond material space.

Once he visited the house of Duryodhana, the enemy cousin of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. Duryodhana was intelligent enough to satisfy the brāhmaṇa by all means, and the great ṛṣi wanted to give some benediction to Duryodhana. Duryodhana knew his mystic powers, and he knew also that the mystic brāhmaṇa, if dissatisfied, could cause some havoc also, and thus he designed to engage the brāhmaṇa to show his wrath upon his enemy cousins the Pāṇḍavas. When the ṛṣi wanted to award some benediction to Duryodhana, the latter wished that he should visit the house of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, who was the eldest and chief among all his cousins. But by his request he would go to him after he had finished his meals with his Queen, Draupadī. Duryodhana knew that after Draupadī's dinner it would be impossible for Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira to receive such a large number of brāhmaṇa guests, and thus the ṛṣi would be annoyed and would create some trouble for his cousin Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. That was the plan of Duryodhana. Durvāsā Muni agreed to this proposal, and he approached the King in exile according to the plan of Duryodhana after the King and Draupadī had finished their meals.", + "On his arrival at the door of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, he was at once well received, and the King requested him to finish his noontime religious rites in the river and by that time the foodstuff would be prepared. Durvāsā Muni, along with his large number of disciples, went to take a bath in the river, and Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was in great anxiety for the guests. As long as Draupadī had not taken her meals, food could be served to any number of guests, but the ṛṣi, by the plan of Duryodhana, reached there after Draupadī had finished her meals.", + "When the devotees are put into difficulty, they have an opportunity to recollect the Lord with rapt attention. So Draupadī was thinking of Lord Kṛṣṇa in that dangerous position, and the all-pervading Lord could at once know the dangerous position of His devotees. He therefore came there on the scene and asked Draupadī to give whatever food she might have in her stock. On her being so requested by the Lord, Draupadī was sorrowful because the Supreme Lord asked her for some food and she was unable to supply it at that time. She said to the Lord that the mysterious dish which she had received from the sun-god could supply any amount of food if she herself had not eaten. But on that day she had already taken her meals, and thus they were in danger. By expressing her difficulties she began to cry before the Lord as only a woman would do in such a position. The Lord, however, asked Draupadī to bring up the cooking pots to see if there was any particle of foodstuff left, and on Draupadī's doing so, the Lord found some particle of vegetable sticking to the pot. The Lord at once picked it up and ate it. After doing so, the Lord asked Draupadī to call for her guests, the company of Durvāsā.", + "Bhīma was sent to call them from the river. Bhīma said, \"Why are you delaying, sirs? Come on, the food is ready for you.\" But the brāhmaṇas, because of Lord Kṛṣṇa's accepting a little particle of food, felt sumptuously fed, even while they were in the water. They thought that since Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira must have prepared many valuable dishes for them and since they were not hungry and could not eat, the King would feel sorry, so it was better not to go there. Thus they decided to go away.", + "This incidence proves that the Lord is the greatest mystic, and therefore He is known as yogeśvara.

The idea is that one who is favored by Lord Śiva or any other demigod may not necessarily be favored by the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa (Godhead). Rāvaṇa was certainly a great devotee of Lord Śiva, but he could not be saved from the wrath of the Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Rāmacandra. And there are many instances like that in the histories of the Purāṇas. But here is an instance where we can see that Lord Śiva became pleased even in the fight with Arjuna. The devotees of the Supreme Lord know how to respect the demigods, but the devotees of the demigods sometimes foolishly think that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is no greater than the demigods. By such a conception, one becomes an offender and ultimately meets with the same end as Rāvaṇa and others. The instances described by Arjuna during his friendly dealings with Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa are instructive for all who may be convinced by the lessons that one can achieve all favors simply by pleasing the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa while the devotees or the worshipers of other demigods may achieve only partial benefits of life, which are also perishable, just as the demigods themselves are.", + "Another significance of the present verse is that Arjuna, by the grace of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, was able to reach the heavenly planet even with the selfsame body and was honored by the heavenly demigod Indradeva, being seated with him half elevated. One can reach the heavenly planets by the pious acts recommended in the śāstras in the category of fruitive activities. And as stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.21), when the reactions of such pious acts are spent, the enjoyer is again degraded to this earthly planet. The moon is also on the level with the heavenly planets, and only persons who have performed virtues only, namely performing sacrifices, giving in charity and undergoing severe austerities, etc., can be allowed to enter into the heavenly planets after the duration of life of the body. Arjuna was allowed to enter into the heavenly planets in the selfsame body simply by the grace of the Lord, otherwise it is not possible to do so. The present attempts to enter into the heavenly planets by the modern scientists will certainly prove futile because such scientists are not on the level of Arjuna. They are ordinary human beings without any assets of sacrifice, charity or austerities. The material body is influenced by the three modes of material nature, namely goodness, passion and ignorance. The present population is more or less influenced by the modes of passion and ignorance, and the symptoms for such influence are exhibited in their becoming very lusty and greedy. Such degraded fellows can hardly approach the higher planetary systems. Above the heavenly planets there are many other planets also, which only those who are influenced by goodness can reach.

At last the father himself took up a chopper to kill his son, and thus Nṛsiṁhadeva appeared and killed the heinous father before the son. Thus no one can kill the devotee of the Lord. Similarly, Arjuna was also saved by the Lord, although all dangerous weapons were applied by his great opponents like Bhīṣma.", + "Karṇa: Born of Kuntī by the sun-god prior to her marriage with Mahārāja Pāṇḍu. Karṇa took his birth with bangles and earrings, extraordinary signs for an undaunted hero. In the beginning his name was Vasusena, but when he grew up he presented his natural bangles and earrings to Indradeva, and thenceforward he became known as Vaikartan. After his birth from maiden Kuntī, he was thrown in the Ganges. Later he was picked up by Adhirat, and he and his wife Radha brought him up as their own offspring. Karṇa was very charitable, especially toward the brāhmaṇas. There was nothing which he could not spare for a brāhmaṇa. In the same charitable spirit he gave in charity his natural bangles and earrings to Indradeva, who, being very much satisfied with him, gave him in return a great weapon called Śakti. He was admitted as one of the students of Droṇācārya, and from the very beginning there was some rivalry between him and Arjuna. Seeing his constant rivalry with Arjuna, Duryodhana picked him up as his companion, and this gradually grew into greater intimacy. He was also present in the great assembly of Draupadī's svayaṁvara function, and when he attempted to exhibit his talent in that meeting, Draupadī's brother declared that Karṇa could not take part in the competition because of his being the son of a śūdra carpenter. Although he was refused in the competition, still when Arjuna was successful in piercing the fish target on the ceiling and Draupadī bestowed her garland to Arjuna, Karṇa and other disappointed princes offered an unusual stumbling block to Arjuna while he was leaving with Draupadī. Specifically Karṇa fought with him very valiantly, but all of them were defeated by Arjuna. Duryodhana was very much pleased with Karṇa because of his constant rivalry with Arjuna, and when he was in power, he enthroned Karṇa in the state of Aṅga. Being baffled in his attempt to win Draupadī, he advised Duryodhana to attack King Drupada, for after defeating him both Arjuna and Draupadī could be arrested. But Droṇācārya rebuked them for this conspiracy, and they refrained from the action. Karṇa was defeated many times, not only by Arjuna but also by Bhīmasena. He was the King of the kingdom of Bengal, Orissa and Madras combined. Later on he took an active part in the Rājasūya sacrifice of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, and when there was gambling between the rival brothers, designed by Śakuni, Karṇa took part in the game, and he was very pleased when Draupadī was offered as a bet in the gambling. This fed his old grudge. When Draupadī was in the game he was very enthusiastic to declare the news, and it is he who ordered Duḥśāsana to take away the garments of both the Pāṇḍavas and Draupadī. He asked Draupadī to select another husband because, being lost by the Pāṇḍavas, she was rendered a slave of the Kurus. He was always an enemy of the Pāṇḍavas, and whenever there was an opportunity, he tried to curb them by all means. During the Battle of Kurukṣetra, he foresaw the conclusive result, and he expressed his opinion that due to Lord Kṛṣṇa's being the chariot driver of Arjuna, the battle should be won by him. He always differed with Bhīṣma, and sometimes he was proud enough to say that within five days he could finish up the Pāṇḍavas, if Bhīṣma would not interfere with his plan of action. But he was much mortified when Bhīṣma died. He killed Ghatotkach with the Śakti weapon obtained from Indradeva. His son, Brisasena, was killed by Arjuna. He killed the largest number of Pāṇḍava soldiers. At last there was a severe fight with Arjuna, and it is he only who was able to knock off the helmet of Arjuna. But it so happened that the wheel of his chariot got stuck in the battlefield mud, and when he got down to set the wheel right Arjuna took the opportunity and killed him, although he requested Arjuna not to do so.", + "Naptri or Bhūriśravā: Bhūriśravā was the son of Somadutta, a member of the Kuru family. His other brother was Śalya. Both the brothers and the father also attended the svayaṁvara ceremony of Draupadī. All of them appreciated the wonderful strength of Arjuna due to his being the devotee friend of the Lord, and thus Bhūriśravā advised the sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra not to pick any quarrel nor to fight with them. All of them also attended the Rājasūya yajña of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. He possessed one akṣauhiṇī regiment of army, cavalry, elephants and chariots, and all these were employed in the Battle of Kurukṣetra on behalf of Duryodhana's party. He was counted by Bhīma as one of the Yuthapatis. In the Battle of Kurukṣetra he was especially engaged in a fight with Sātyaki, and he killed ten sons of Sātyaki. Later on, Arjuna cut off his hands, and he was ultimately killed by Sātyaki.

During the time of cow-stealing in Viratnagar, he was able to arrest Mahārāja Virāṭa, but later on Mahārāja Virāṭa was released by Bhīma, and in the Battle of Kurukṣetra he also fought very valiantly, but at the end he was killed by Arjuna.", + "Jayadratha: Another son of Mahārāja Vṛddhakṣetra. He was the King of Sindhu (modern Sind Pakistan) Deśa. His wife’s name was Duḥśalā. He was also present in the svayaṁvara ceremony of Draupadī, and he desired very strongly to have her hand, but he failed in the competition. But since then he sought always the opportunity to get in touch with Draupadī. When he was going to marry in the Śalya Deśa, on the way to Kamyavan he happened to see Draupadī again and was too much attracted to her. The Pāṇḍavas and Draupadī were then in exile, after losing their empire in gambling, and Jayadratha thought it wise to send news to Draupadī in an illicit manner through Kotisaṣya, one of his associates. Draupadī at once refused vehemently the proposal of Jayadratha, but being so much attracted by the beauty of Draupadī, he tried again and again. Every time he was refused by Draupadī he tried to take her away forcibly on his chariot, and at first Draupadī gave him a good dashing, and he fell like a cut-root tree. But he was not discouraged, and he was able to force Draupadī to sit on the chariot. This incidence was seen by Dhaumya Muni, and he strongly protested the action of Jayadratha. He also followed the chariot, and through Dhatreyak the matter was brought to the notice of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. The Pāṇḍavas then attacked the soldiers of Jayadratha and killed them all, and at last Bhīma caught hold of Jayadratha and beat him very severely, almost dead. Then all but five hairs were cut off his head and he was taken to all the kings and introduced as the slave of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. He was forced to admit himself to be the slave of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira before all the princely order, and in the same condition he was brought before Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was kind enough to order him released, and when he admitted to become a tributory prince under Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, Queen Draupadī also desired his release. After this incidence, he was allowed to return to his country. Being so insulted, he went to Gongotri in the Himalayas and undertook a severe type of penance to please Lord Śiva. He asked his benediction to defeat all the Pāṇḍavas, at least one at a time. Then the Battle of Kurukṣetra began, and he took sides with Duryodhana. In the first day's fight he was engaged with Mahārāja Drupada, then with Virāṭa and then with Abhimanyu. While Abhimanyu was being killed, mercilessly surrounded by seven great generals, the Pāṇḍavas came to his help, but Jayadratha, by the mercy of Lord Śiva, repulsed them with great ability. At this, Arjuna took a vow to kill him, and on hearing this, Jayadratha wanted to leave the warfield and asked permission from the Kauravas for this cowardly action. But he was not allowed to do so. On the contrary, he was obliged to fight with Arjuna, and while the fight was going on Lord Kṛṣṇa reminded Arjuna that the benediction of Śiva upon Jayadratha was that whoever would cause his head to fall to the ground would die at once.

While playing in such a perfect transcendental relation, the devotee forgets, by the internal potency of the Lord, that his friend or son is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although sometimes the devotee is bewildered by the acts of the Lord.

But such scarcity of water was solved in the Battle of Kurukṣetra by means of boring the ground. By God’s grace, water can be easily obtained from any place if there is facility for boring the ground. The modern system works on the same principle of boring the ground, but modern engineers are still unable to dig immediately wherever necessary. It appears, however, from the history as far back as the days of the Pāṇḍavas, that big generals like Arjuna could at once supply water even to the horses, and what to speak of men, by drawing water from underneath the hard ground simply by penetrating the stratum with a sharp arrow, a method still unknown to the modern scientists." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d0b2e49e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,133 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 1.15.18", + "devanagari": "नर्माण्य् उदाररुचिरस्मितशोभितानि हे पार्थ हे ऽर्जुन सखे कुरुनन्दनेति\nसंजल्पितानि नरदेव हृदिस्पृशानि स्मर्तुर्लुठन्ति हृदयं मम माधवस्य", + "transliteration": "narmāṇy udāra-rucira-smita-śobhitāni\nhe pārtha he 'rjuna sakhe kuru-nandaneti\nsañjalpitāni nara-deva hṛdi-spṛśāni\nsmartur luṭhanti hṛdayaṁ mama mādhavasya", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "narmāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "conversation in jokes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udāra", + "meanings": [ + "talked very frankly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rucira", + "meanings": [ + "pleasing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smita-śobhitāni", + "meanings": [ + "decorated with a smiling face" + ] + }, + { + "word": "he", + "meanings": [ + "note of address" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pārtha", + "meanings": [ + "O son of Pṛthā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "he", + "meanings": [ + "note of address" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arjunaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Arjuna" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakhe", + "meanings": [ + "friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuru-nandana", + "meanings": [ + "son of the Kuru dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "and so on" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sañjalpitāni", + "meanings": [ + "such conversations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nara-deva", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdi", + "meanings": [ + "heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "spṛśāni", + "meanings": [ + "touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smartuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by remembering them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "luṭhanti", + "meanings": [ + "overwhelms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdayam", + "meanings": [ + "heart and soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mama", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mādhavasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Mādhava (Kṛṣṇa)." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O King!

In these Purāṇas it is said that once the fair denizens of heaven pleased Aṣṭāvakra Muni by their service and were blessed by the Muni to have the Supreme Lord as their husband. Aṣṭāvakra Muni was curved in eight joints of his body, and thus he used to move in a peculiarly curved manner. The daughters of the demigods could not check their laughter upon seeing the movements of the Muni, and the Muni, being angry at them, cursed them that they would be kidnapped by rogues, even if they would get the Lord as their husband. Later on, the girls again satisfied the Muni by their prayers, and the Muni blessed them that they would regain their husband even after being robbed by the rogues. So, in order to keep the words of the great Muni, the Lord Himself kidnapped His wives from the protection of Arjuna, otherwise they would have at once vanished from the scene as soon as they were touched by the rogues. Besides that, some of the gopīs who prayed to become wives of the Lord returned to their respective positions after their desire was fulfilled.

The Lord left behind Him the instructions of the Bhagavad-gītā not only for the benefit of Arjuna alone, but also for all time and in all lands. The Bhagavad-gītā, being spoken by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is the essence of all Vedic wisdom. It is nicely presented by the Lord Himself for all who have very little time to go through the vast Vedic literatures like the Upaniṣads, Purāṇas and Vedānta-sūtras. It is put within the study of the great historical epic Mahābhārata, which was especially prepared for the less intelligent class, namely the women, the laborers and those who are worthless descendants of the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and higher sections of the vaiśyas. The problem which arose in the heart of Arjuna on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra was solved by the teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā. Again, after the departure of the Lord from the vision of earthly people, when Arjuna was face to face with being vanquished in his acquired power and prominence, he wanted again to remember the great teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā just to teach all concerned that the Bhagavad-gītā could be consulted in all critical times, not only for solace from all kinds of mental agonies, but also for the way out of great entanglements which may embarrass one in some critical hour.", + "The merciful Lord left behind Him the great teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā so that one can take the instructions of the Lord even when He is not visible to material eyesight. Material senses cannot have any estimation of the Supreme Lord, but by His inconceivable power, the Lord can incarnate Himself to the sense perception of the conditioned souls in a suitable manner through the agency of matter, which is also another form of the Lord's manifested energy. Thus the Bhagavad-gītā, or any authentic scriptural sound representation of the Lord, is also the incarnation of the Lord. There is no difference between the sound representation of the Lord and the Lord Himself. One can derive the same benefit from the Bhagavad-gītā as Arjuna did in the personal presence of the Lord.", + "The faithful human being who is desirous of being liberated from the clutches of material existence can very easily take advantage of the Bhagavad-gītā, and with this in view, the Lord instructed Arjuna as if Arjuna were in need of it. In the Bhagavad-gītā, five important factors of knowledge have been delineated pertaining to 1) the Supreme Lord, 2) the living being, 3) nature, 4) time and space, and 5) the process of activity. Out of these, the Supreme Lord and the living being are qualitatively one. The difference between the two has been analyzed as the difference between the whole and the part and parcel. Nature is inert matter displaying the interaction of three different modes, and eternal time and unlimited space are considered to be beyond the existence of the material nature. Activities of the living being are different varieties of aptitudes which can entrap or liberate the living being within and without material nature. All these subject matters are concisely discussed in the Bhagavad-gītā, and later the subject matters are elaborated in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam for further enlightenment. Out of the five subjects, the Supreme Lord, the living entity, nature and time and space are eternal, but the living entity, nature and time are under the direction of the Supreme Lord, who is absolute and completely independent of any other control. The Supreme Lord is the supreme controller. The material activity of the living being is beginningless, but it can be rectified by transferral into the spiritual quality. Thus it can cease its material qualitative reactions. Both the Lord and the living entity are cognizant, and both have the sense of identification, of being conscious as a living force. But the living being under the condition of material nature, called mahat-tattva, misidentifies himself as being different from the Lord. The whole scheme of Vedic wisdom is targetted to the aim of eradicating such a misconception and thus liberating the living being from the illusion of material identification. When such an illusion is eradicated by knowledge and renunciation, the living beings are responsible actors and enjoyers also. The sense of enjoyment in the Lord is real, but such sense in the living being is a sort of wishful desire only. This difference in consciousness is the distinction of the two identities, namely the Lord and the living being. Otherwise there is no difference between the Lord and the living being. The living being is therefore eternally one and different simultaneously. The whole instruction of the Bhagavad-gītā stands on this principle.", + "In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord and the living beings are both described as sanātana, or eternal, and the Lord's abode far beyond the material sky is also described as sanātana. The living being is invited to live in the sanātana existence of the Lord, and the process which can help a living being to approach the Lord's abode, where the liberated activity of the soul is exhibited, is called sanātana-dharma. One cannot, however, reach the eternal abode of the Lord without being free from the misconception of material identification, and the Bhagavad-gītā gives us the clue how to achieve this stage of perfection. The process of being liberated from the misconception of material identification is called, in different stages, fruitive activity, empiric philosophy and devotional service, up to transcendental realization. Such transcendental realization is made possible by dovetailing all the above items in relation with the Lord. Prescribed duties of the human being, as directed in the Vedas, can gradually purify the sinful mind of the conditioned soul and raise him to the stage of knowledge. The purified stage of acquiring knowledge becomes the basis of devotional service of the Lord. As long as one is engaged in researching the solution of the problems of life, it is called jñāna, or purified knowledge, but on realizing the actual solution of life, one becomes situated in the devotional service of the Lord. The Bhagavad-gītā begins with the problems of life by discriminating the soul from the elements of matter and proves by all reason and argument that the soul is indestructible in all circumstances and that the outer covering of matter, the body and the mind, change for another term of material existence which is full of miseries. The Bhagavad-gītā, is therefore meant for terminating all different types of miseries, and Arjuna took shelter of this great knowledge which was imparted to him before, during the Kurukṣetra battle." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/28.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/28.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..81eab20f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/28.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 28, + "reference": "SB 1.15.28", + "devanagari": "सूत उवाच\nएवं चिन्तयतो जिष्णोः कृष्णपादसरोरुहम्\nसौहार्देनातिगाढेन शान्तासीद्विमला मतिः", + "transliteration": "sūta uvāca\nevaṁ cintayato jiṣṇoḥ\nkṛṣṇa-pāda-saroruham\nsauhārdenātigāḍhena\nśāntāsīd vimalā matiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sūtaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Sūta Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cintayataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "while thinking of the instructions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jiṣṇoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇa-pāda", + "meanings": [ + "the feet of Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saroruham", + "meanings": [ + "resembling lotuses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sauhārdena", + "meanings": [ + "by deep friendship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atigāḍhena", + "meanings": [ + "in great intimacy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śāntā", + "meanings": [ + "pacified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsīt", + "meanings": [ + "it so became" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimalā", + "meanings": [ + "without any tinge of material contamination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "matiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Sūta Gosvāmī said: Thus being deeply absorbed in thinking of the instructions of the Lord, which were imparted in the great intimacy of friendship, and in thinking of His lotus feet, Arjuna's mind became pacified and free from all material contamination.", + "purport": [ + "Since the Lord is absolute, deep meditation upon Him is as good as yogic trance.

Doubts due to misconceptions of myself and mine, in other words, my body, my relatives, my property, my wife, my children, my wealth, my country, my community, and hundreds and thousands of similar illusory contemplations, cause bewilderment for the conditioned soul. By assimilating the instructions of the Bhagavad-gītā, one is sure to become released from such bewilderment because real knowledge is to know that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva, Lord Kṛṣṇa, is everything, including one’s self. Everything is a manifestation of His potency as part and parcel. The potency and the potent are nondifferent, so the conception of duality is at once mitigated by attainment of perfect knowledge. As soon as Arjuna took up the instructions of the Bhagavad-gītā, expert as he was, he could at once eradicate the material conception of Lord Kṛṣṇa, his eternal friend. He could realize that the Lord was still present before him by His instruction, by His form, by His pastimes, by His qualities and everything else related to Him. He could realize that Lord Kṛṣṇa, his friend, was still present before him by His transcendental presence in different nondual energies, and there was no question of attainment of the association of the Lord by another change of body under the influence of time and space. By attainment of absolute knowledge, one can be in association with the Lord constantly, even in this present life, simply by hearing, chanting, thinking of and worshiping the Supreme Lord. One can see Him, one can feel His presence even in this present life simply by understanding the advaya-jñāna Lord, or the Absolute Lord, through the process of devotional service, which begins with hearing about Him. Lord Caitanya says that simply by chanting the holy name of the Lord one can at once wash off the dust on the mirror of pure consciousness, and as soon as the dust is removed, one is at once freed from all material conditions. To become free from material conditions means to liberate the soul. As soon as one is, therefore, situated in absolute knowledge, his material conception of life is removed or emerges from a false conception of life. Thus the function of the pure soul is revived in spiritual realization. This practical realization of the living being is made possible due to his becoming free from the reaction of the three modes of material nature, namely goodness, passion and ignorance. By the grace of the Lord, a pure devotee is at once raised to the place of the Absolute, and there is no chance of the devotee becoming materially entangled again in conditioned life. One is not able to feel the presence of the Lord in all circumstances until one is endowed with the required transcendental vision made possible by devotional service prescribed in the revealed scriptures. Arjuna attained this stage long before on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra, and when he apparently felt the absence of the Lord, he at once took shelter of the instructions of the Bhagavad-gītā, and thus again he was placed in his original position.

He began to deliberate on the Lord's way of appearance and departure. The mission of the Lord's appearance and disappearance in the mortal universe is completely dependent on His supreme will. He is not forced to appear or disappear by any superior energy, as the living beings appear and disappear, being forced by the laws of nature. Whenever the Lord likes, He can appear Himself from anywhere and everywhere without disturbing His appearance and disappearance in any other place. He is like the sun. The sun appears and disappears on its own accord at any place without disturbing its presence in other places. The sun appears in the morning in India without disappearing from the western hemisphere. The sun is present everywhere and anywhere all over the solar system, but it so appears that in a particular place the sun appears in the morning and also disappears at some fixed time in the evening. The time limitation even of the sun is of no concern, and so what to speak of the Supreme Lord who is the creator and controller of the sun. Therefore, in the Bhagavad-gītā it is stated that anyone who factually understands the transcendental appearance and disappearance of the Lord by His inconceivable energy becomes liberated from the laws of birth and death and is placed in the eternal spiritual sky where the Vaikuṇṭha planets are. There such liberated persons can eternally live without the pangs of birth, death, old age and disease. In the spiritual sky the Lord and those who are eternally engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord are all eternally young because there is no old age and disease, and there is no death. Because there is no death there is no birth. It is concluded therefore that simply by understanding the Lord's appearance and disappearance in truth, one can attain the perfectional stage of eternal life. Therefore, Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira also began to consider going back to Godhead. The Lord appears on the earth or any other mortal planet along with His associates who live with Him eternally, and the members of the Yadu family who were engaged in supplementing the pastimes of the Lord are no other than His eternal associates and so also Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and his brothers and mother, etc. Since the appearance and disappearance of the Lord and His eternal associates are transcendental, one should not be bewildered by the external features of appearance and disappearance." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/33.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/33.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a37ace27 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/33.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 33, + "reference": "SB 1.15.33", + "devanagari": "पृथाप्य् अनुश्रुत्य धनंजयोदितं नाशं यदूनां भगवद्गतिं च ताम्\nएकान्तभक्त्या भगवत्य् अधोक्षजे निवेशितात्मोपरराम संसृतेः", + "transliteration": "pṛthāpy anuśrutya dhanañjayoditaṁ\nnāśaṁ yadūnāṁ bhagavad-gatiṁ ca tām\nekānta-bhaktyā bhagavaty adhokṣaje\nniveśitātmopararāma saṁsṛteḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pṛthā", + "meanings": [ + "Kuntī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśrutya", + "meanings": [ + "overhearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhanañjaya", + "meanings": [ + "Arjuna" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uditam", + "meanings": [ + "uttered by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāśam", + "meanings": [ + "end" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadūnām", + "meanings": [ + "of the Yadu dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatim", + "meanings": [ + "disappearance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "all those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eka-anta", + "meanings": [ + "unalloyed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktyā", + "meanings": [ + "devotion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavati", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supreme Lord, Śrī Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhokṣaje", + "meanings": [ + "transcendence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niveśita-ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "with full attention" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upararāma", + "meanings": [ + "became released from" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsṛteḥ", + "meanings": [ + "material existence." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Kuntī, after overhearing Arjuna's telling of the end of the Yadu dynasty and disappearance of Lord Kṛṣṇa, engaged in the devotional service of the transcendental Personality of Godhead with full attention and thus gained release from the course of material existence.", + "purport": [ + "The setting of the sun does not mean the end of the sun.

As Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira decided to prepare to go back to Godhead, so also Kuntī decided, and thus she fully engaged herself in the transcendental devotional service of the Lord, which guarantees one passport for going back to Godhead after quitting this present material body.

The abode of the Lord is not a myth, as is thought by the unbelievers or ignorant people, but one cannot reach there by any material means like a sputnik or space capsule.

To give them relief from this mental agony, Sūta Gosvāmī assured them that the Lord caused the members of the Yadu dynasty to relinquish their bodies by which they had to take away the burden of the world. The Lord and His eternal associates appeared on earth to help the administrative demigods in eradicating the burden of the world. He therefore called for some of the confidential demigods to appear in the Yadu family and serve Him in His great mission. After the mission was fulfilled, the demigods, by the will of the Lord, relinquished their corporeal bodies by fighting amongst themselves in the madness of intoxication. The demigods are accustomed to drinking soma-rasa beverage, and therefore the drinking of wine and intoxication are not unknown to them. Sometimes they were put into trouble for indulging in intoxication. Once the sons of Kuvera fell in the wrath of Nārada for being intoxicated, but afterwards they regained their original forms by the grace of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. We shall find this story in the Tenth Canto. For the Supreme Lord, both the asuras and the demigods are equal, but the demigods are obedient to the Lord, whereas the asuras are not. Therefore, the example of picking out a thorn by another thorn is quite befitting. One thorn, which causes pinpricks on the leg of the Lord, is certainly disturbing to the Lord, and the other thorn, which takes out the disturbing elements, certainly gives service to the Lord. So although every living being is a part and parcel of the Lord, still one who is a pinprick of the Lord is called an asura, and one who is a voluntary servitor of the Lord is called a devatā or demigod. In the material world the devatās and asuras are always contending, and the devatās are always saved from the hands of the asuras by the Lord. Both of them are under the control of the Lord. The world is full of two kinds of living beings, and the Lord's mission is always to protect the devatās and destroy the asuras, whenever there is such need in the world, and to do good to both of them." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/35.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/35.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e62061ae --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/15/verses/35.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 35, + "reference": "SB 1.15.35", + "devanagari": "यथा मत्स्यादिरूपाणि धत्ते जह्याद्यथा नटः\nभूभारः क्षपितो येन जहौ तच्च कलेवरम्", + "transliteration": "yathā matsyādi-rūpāṇi\ndhatte jahyād yathā naṭaḥ\nbhūbhāraḥ kṣapito yena\njahau tac ca kalevaram", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as much as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "matsya-ādi", + "meanings": [ + "incarnation as a fish, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "rūpāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "forms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhatte", + "meanings": [ + "eternally accepts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jahyāt", + "meanings": [ + "apparently relinquishes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "exactly like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "magician" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūbhāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "burden of the world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣapitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "relieved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jahau", + "meanings": [ + "let go" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalevaram", + "meanings": [ + "body." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Lord relinquished the body which He manifested to diminish the burden of the earth.

In the Bṛhad-vaiṣṇava Tantra it is clearly mentioned that anyone who considers the form of the Lord Kṛṣṇa to be made of material energy must be ostracized by all means. And if by chance the face of such an infidel is seen, one must clean himself by jumping in the river with his clothing. The Lord is described as amṛta, or deathless, because He has no material body. Under the circumstances, the Lord's dying or quitting His body is like the jugglery of a magician. The magician shows by his tricks that he is cut into pieces, burnt into ashes or made unconscious by hypnotic influences, etc., but all are false shows only. Factually the magician himself is neither burnt into ashes nor is he cut into pieces nor is he dead or unconscious at any stage of his magical demonstration. Similarly, the Lord has His eternal forms of unlimited variety of which the fish incarnation, as was exhibited within this universe, is also one. Because there are innumerable universes, somewhere or other the fish incarnation must be manifesting His pastimes without cessation. In this verse, the particular word dhatte, eternally accepted, (and not the word dhatva, accepted for the occasion) is used. The idea is that the Lord does not create the incarnation of fish; He has eternally such a form, and the appearance and disappearance of such an incarnation serve particular purposes. In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says (Bg. 7.24-25), “The impersonalists think that I have no form and that I am formless, but that at present I have accepted a form to serve a purpose, and now I am manifested. But such speculators are factually without sharp intelligence. Though they may be good scholars in the Vedic literatures, they are practically ignorant of My inconceivable energies and My eternal forms of Personality. The reason is that I reserve the power of not being exposed to the nondevotees by My mystic curtain. The less intelligent fools are therefore unaware of My eternal form, which is never to be vanquished and is unborn.\" In the Padma Purāṇa it is said that those who are envious and always angry at the Lord are unfit to know the actual and eternal form of the Lord. In the Bhāgavatam also it is said that the Lord appeared like a thunderbolt to those who were wrestlers. Śiśupāla, at the time of being killed by the Lord, could not see Him as Kṛṣṇa, being dazzled by the glare of the brahmajyoti.

The happiness of the citizens was due to the ample production of natural produce such as grains, fruits, milk, herbs, valuable stones, minerals and everything that the people needed. They were even free from all bodily miseries, anxieties of mind, and disturbances caused by natural phenomena and other living beings. Because everyone was happy in all respects, there was no resentment, although there were sometimes battles between the state kings for political reasons and supremacy.

Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a mahābhāgavata, or a first-class devotee, who was not only well versed in the science of devotion but also able to convert others to become devotees by his transcendental instructions. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was, therefore, a devotee of the first order, and thus he used to consult great sages and learned brāhmaṇas who could advise him by the śāstras how to execute the state administration. Such great kings were more responsible than modern elected executive heads because they obliged the great authorities by following their instructions left in Vedic literatures. There was no need to enact daily a new legislative bill by impractical fools and to alter it again and again conveniently to serve some purpose. The rules and regulations were already set forth by great sages like Manu, Yājñavalkya, Parāśara and other liberated sages, and the enactments were all suitable for all ages in all places. Therefore the rules and regulations were standard and without flaw or defect. Kings like Mahārāja Parīkṣit had their council of advisers, and all the members of that council were either great sages or brāhmaṇas of the first order. They did not accept any salary, nor had they any necessity for such salaries. The state would get the best advice without expenditure. They were themselves samadarśi, equal to everyone, both man and animal. They would not advise the king to give protection to man and instruct him to kill the poor animals. Such council members were not fools or representatives to compose a fool's paradise. They were all self-realized souls, and they knew perfectly well how all living beings in the state would be happy, both in this life and the next. They were not concerned with the hedonistic philosophy of eat, drink, be merry and enjoy. They were philosophers in the real sense, and they knew well what is the mission of human life. Under all these obligations, the advisory council of the king would give correct directions, and the king or executive head, being himself a qualified devotee of the Lord, would scrutinizingly follow them for the welfare of the state. The state in the days of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira or Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a welfare state in the real sense of the term because no one was unhappy in that state, be he man or animal.

There was no need to fight with small states because everyone was peacefully under his subordination, but the Kali-yuga miscreants gave his fighting spirit a chance for exhibition. A perfect kṣatriya king is always jubilant as soon as he gets a chance to fight, just as a sportsman is eager when there is a chance for a sporting match. It is no argument that in the age of Kali such symptoms were predestined. If so, then why was there preparation for fighting out such symptoms? Such arguments are offered by lazy and unfortunate men. In the rainy season, rain is predestined, and yet people take precautions to protect themselves. Similarly, in the age of Kali the symptoms as above mentioned are sure to infiltrate into social life, but it is the duty of the state to save the citizens from the association of the agents of the age of Kali.

When the sun-god is pleased, he properly collects water from the sea, and thus sufficient clouds collect on the horizon and rains fall. After sufficient rains fall, there is sufficient production of grains for men and all animals, and thus there is energy in the living being for progressive activity. The mlecchas, however, make plans to install slaughterhouses for killing bulls and cows along with other animals, thinking that they will prosper by increasing the number of factories and live on animal food without caring for performance of sacrifices and production of grains. But they must know that even for the animals they must produce grass and vegetables, otherwise the animals cannot live. And to produce grass for the animals, they must require sufficient rains. Therefore they have to depend ultimately on the mercy of the demigods like the sun-god, Indra, Candra, etc., and such demigods must be satisfied by performances of sacrifice.", + "This material world is a sort of prison house, as we have several times mentioned. The demigods are servants of the Lord to see to the proper upkeep of the prison house. These demigods want to see that the rebel living beings, who want to survive faithlessly, are gradually turned towards the supreme power of the Lord. Therefore, the system of offering sacrifice is recommended in the scriptures.", + "The materialistic men want to work hard and enjoy fruitive results for sense enjoyment. Thus they are committing many types of sins at every step of life. Those who are, however, consciously engaged in the devotional service of the Lord are transcendental to all varieties of sin and virtue. Their activities are free from the contamination of the three modes of material nature. For the devotees there is no need for performance of prescribed sacrifices because the very life of the devotee is a symbol of sacrifice. But persons who are engaged in fruitive activities for sense enjoyment must perform the prescribed sacrifices because that is the only means to get free from the reaction of all sins committed by the fruitive workers. Sacrifice is the means for counteracting such accumulated sins. The demigods are pleased when such sacrifices are performed, just as prison officers are satisfied when the prisoners are turned into obedient subjects. Lord Caitanya, however, has recommended only one yajña or sacrifice, called the saṅkīrtana-yajña, the chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa, in which everyone can take part. Thus both devotees and fruitive workers can derive equal benefit from the performances of saṅkīrtana-yajña." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/16/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/16/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..962b8e13 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/16/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 1.16.21", + "devanagari": "अरक्ष्यमाणाः स्त्रिय उर्वि बालान्शोचस्य् अथो पुरुषादैर् इवार्तान्\nवाचं देवीं ब्रह्मकुले कुकर्मण्य् अब्रह्मण्ये राजकुले कुलाग्र्यान्", + "transliteration": "arakṣyamāṇāḥ striya urvi bālān\nśocasy atho puruṣādair ivārtān\nvācaṁ devīṁ brahma-kule kukarmaṇy\nabrahmaṇye rāja-kule kulāgryān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "arakṣyamāṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unprotected" + ] + }, + { + "word": "striyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "women" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urvi", + "meanings": [ + "on the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bālān", + "meanings": [ + "children" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śocasi", + "meanings": [ + "you are feeling compassion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atho", + "meanings": [ + "as such" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣa-ādaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārtān", + "meanings": [ + "those who are unhappy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vācam", + "meanings": [ + "vocabulary" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devīm", + "meanings": [ + "the goddess" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma-kule", + "meanings": [ + "in the family of the brāhmaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kukarmaṇi", + "meanings": [ + "acts against the principles of religion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abrahmaṇye", + "meanings": [ + "persons against the brahminical culture" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāja-kule", + "meanings": [ + "in the administrative family" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kula-agryān", + "meanings": [ + "most of all the families (the brāhmaṇas)." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Are you feeling compunction for the unhappy women and children who are left forlorn by unscrupulous persons?

In this age, the fathers and the guardians are not happy with the behavior of their wards. They should know that so many innocent children are victims of bad association awarded by the influence of this age of Kali. We know from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that Ajāmila, an innocent son of a brāhmaṇa, was walking down a road and saw a śūdra pair sexually embraced. This attracted the boy, and later on the boy became a victim of all debaucheries. From a pure brāhmaṇa, he fell down to the position of a wretched urchin, and it was all due to bad association. There was but one victim like Ajāmila in those days, but in this age of Kali the poor innocent students are daily victims of cinemas which attract men only for sex indulgence. The so-called administrators are all untrained in the affairs of a kṣatriya. The kṣatriyas are meant for administration, as the brāhmaṇas are meant for knowledge and guidance. The word kṣatriya-bandhu refers to the so-called administrators or persons promoted to the post of the administrator without proper training by culture and tradition. Nowadays they are promoted to such exalted posts by the votes of people who are themselves fallen in the rules and regulations of life.

That Personality of Godhead, the reservoir of all goodness and beauty, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, has now closed His transcendental pastimes on the face of the earth. In His absence the age of Kali has spread its influence everywhere, so I am sorry to see this condition of existence.", + "purport": [ + "Even if it were possible to count the atoms after smashing the earth into powder, still it is not possible to estimate the unfathomed transcendental qualities of the Lord. It is said that Lord Anantadeva has tried to expostulate the transcendental qualities of the Supreme Lord with his numberless tongues, and that for numberless years together it has been impossible to estimate the qualities of the Lord. The above statement of the qualities of the Lord is just to estimate His qualities as far as a human being is able to see Him. But even if it is so, the above qualities can also be divided into many subheadings. According to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, item No. 3 can be subdivided into 1) protection of the surrendered souls, and 2) well wishes for the devotees. In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord states that He wants every soul to surrender unto Him only, and by doing so He assures everyone that He will give protection from the reactions of all sins. Therefore unsurrendered souls are not devotees of the Lord, and thus there is no particular protection for everyone, in general. For the devotees He has all good wishes, and for those who are actually engaged in the loving transcendental service of the Lord, He gives particular attention. He gives direction to such pure devotees to help them discharge their responsibilities on the path back to Godhead. By equality (10), the Lord is equally kind to everyone, as the sun is equal in distributing its rays over everyone. Yet there are many who are unable to take advantage of the sun rays. Similarly, the Lord says that surrendering unto Him is the guarantee for all protection from Him, but unfortunate persons are unable to accept this proposition, and therefore they suffer from all material miseries. So even though the Lord is equally well wishing to everyone, the unfortunate living being, due to bad association only, is unable to accept His instructions in toto, and for this the Lord is never to be blamed. He is called the well-wisher for the devotees only. He appears to be partial to His devotees, but factually the matter rests on the living being to accept or reject equal treatment by the Lord.", + "The Lord never deviates from His word of honor. When He gives assurance for protection, the promise is executed in all circumstances. It is the duty of the pure devotee to be fixed up in the discharge of duty entrusted to him by the Lord or the Lord’s bona fide representative, the spiritual master. The rest is carried on by the Lord without a break.", + "Responsibility of the Lord is also unique. The Lord has no responsibility because all His work is done by His different appointed energies. But still He accepts voluntary responsibilities in displaying different roles in His transcendental pastimes. As a boy, He was playing the part of a cowboy. As the son of Nanda Mahārāja, He discharged responsibility perfectly. Similarly, when He was playing the part of a kṣatriya as the son of Mahārāja Vasudeva, He displayed all the skill of a martially spirited kṣatriya. In almost all cases, the kṣatriya king has to secure a wife by fighting or kidnapping. This sort of behavior for a kṣatriya is praiseworthy in the sense that a kṣatriya must show his power of chivalry before his would-be wife so that the daughter of a kṣatriya can see the valor of her would-be husband. Even the Personality of Godhead Śrī Rāma displayed such a spirit of chivalry during His marriage. He broke the strongest bow, called Haradhanu, and achieved the hand of Sītā Devī, the mother of all opulence. The kṣatriya spirit is displayed during marriage festivals, and there is nothing wrong in such fighting. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa discharged such responsibility fully because although He had more than 16,000 wives, in each and every case He fought like a chivalrous kṣatriya and thus secured a wife. To fight 16,000 times to secure 16,000 wives is certainly only possible by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Similarly, He displayed full responsibility in every action of His different transcendental pastimes.", + "Item No. 14, knowledge, can be further extended into five subheadings, namely 1) intelligence, 2) gratefulness, 3) power of understanding the circumstantial environments of place, object and time, 4) perfect knowledge of everything, and 5) knowledge of the self. Only fools are ungrateful to their benefactors. The Lord, however, does not require benefit from anyone besides Himself because He is full in Himself; still He feels benefited by the unalloyed services of His devotees. The Lord feels grateful to His devotees for such unsophisticated, unconditional service and tries to reciprocate it by rendering service, although the devotee also has no such desire in his heart. The transcendental service of the Lord is itself a transcendental benefit for the devotee, and therefore the devotee has nothing to expect from the Lord. On the assertion of the Vedic aphorism, sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma, we can understand that the Lord, by the omnipresent rays of His effulgence, called brahmajyoti, is all-pervading inside or outside of everything, like the omnipresent material sky, and thus He is also omniscient.", + "As far as the beauty of the Lord is concerned, He has some special features distinguished from all other living beings, and over and above that He has some special attractive beautiful features by which He attracts the mind of even Rādhārāṇī, the supermost beautiful creation of the Lord. He is known, therefore, as Madana-Mohana, or one who attracts the mind even of Cupid. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī Prabhu has scrutinizingly analyzed other transcendental qualities of the Lord and affirms that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the Absolute Supreme Personality of Godhead (Param Brahman). He is omnipotent by His inconceivable energies, and therefore He is the Yogeśvara or the supreme master of all mystic powers. Being the Yogeśvara, His eternal form is spiritual, a combination of eternity, bliss and knowledge. The nondevotee class cannot understand the dynamic nature of His knowledge because they are satisfied to reach up to His eternal form of knowledge. All great souls aspire to be equal in knowledge with Him. This means that all other knowledge is ever insufficient, flexible and measurable, whereas the knowledge of the Lord is ever fixed and unfathomable. Śrīla Sūta Gosvāmī affirms in the Bhāgavatam that although He was observed by the citizens of Dvārakā every day, they were ever increasingly anxious to see Him again and again. The living being can appreciate the qualities of the Lord as the ultimate goal, but they cannot attain the status quo of such equality. This material world is a product of the mahat-tattva, which is a state of the Lord's dreaming condition in His Yoga-nidrā mystic slumber in the Causal Ocean, and yet the whole creation appears to be a factual presentation of His creation. This means that the Lord's dreaming conditions are also factual manifestations. He can therefore bring everything under His transcendental control, and thus whenever and wherever He does appear, He does so in His fullness.", + "The Lord, being all that is described above, maintains the affairs of the creation, and by His so doing He gives salvation even to His enemies who are killed by Him. He is attractive even to the topmost liberated soul, and thus He is worshipable even by Brahmā and Śiva, the greatest of all demigods. Even in His incarnation of Puruṣāvatāra He is the Lord of the creative energy. The creative material energy is working under His direction, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.10). He is the control switch of the material energy, and to control the material energy in the innumerable universes, He is the root cause of innumerable incarnations in all the universes. There are more than 500,000 incarnations of Manu in only one universe, besides other incarnations in different universes. In the spiritual world, however, beyond the mahat-tattva, there is no question of incarnations, but there are plenary expansions of the Lord in the different Vaikuṇṭhas. The planets in the spiritual sky are at least three times the number of those within the innumerable universes in the mahat-tattva. And all the Nārāyaṇa forms of the Lord are but expansions of His Vāsudeva feature, and thus He is Vāsudeva, Nārāyaṇa and Kṛṣṇa simultaneously. He is \"śrī-kṛṣṇa govinda hare murāre, he nātha nārāyaṇa vāsudeva,\" all in one. His qualities, therefore, cannot be counted by anyone, however great one may be." + ], + "verse_end": 30 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/16/verses/31.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/16/verses/31.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ab5bf0de --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/16/verses/31.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 31, + "reference": "SB 1.16.31", + "devanagari": "आत्मानं चानुशोचामि भवन्तं चामरोत्तमम्\nदेवान्पिते᳙नृषीन्साधून्सर्वान्वर्णांस्तथा ऽऽश्रमान्", + "transliteration": "ātmānaṁ cānuśocāmi\nbhavantaṁ cāmarottamam\ndevān pitèn-ṛṣīn sādhūn\nsarvān varṇāṁs tathā ''śramān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "myself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśocāmi", + "meanings": [ + "lamenting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavantam", + "meanings": [ + "yourself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "as well as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amara-uttamam", + "meanings": [ + "the best amongst the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devān", + "meanings": [ + "about the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitèn", + "meanings": [ + "about the denizens of the Pitṛloka planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣīn", + "meanings": [ + "about the sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhūn", + "meanings": [ + "about the devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvān", + "meanings": [ + "all of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṇān", + "meanings": [ + "sections" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "as also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśramān", + "meanings": [ + "orders of human society." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "I am thinking about myself and also, O best amongst the demigods, about yourself, as well as about all the demigods, sages, denizens of the Pitṛloka, devotees of the Lord and all men obedient to the system of varṇa and āśrama in human society.", + "purport": [ + "To effect the perfection of human life there is cooperation between men and demigods, sages, denizens of the Pitṛloka, devotees of the Lord and the scientific system of varṇa and āśrama orders of life.

When God-made varṇāśrama-dharma, which is strictly meant for developing animal consciousness into human consciousness and human consciousness into godly consciousness, is broken by advancement of foolishness, the whole system of peaceful and progressive life is at once disturbed. In the age of Kali, the first attack of the venomous snake is struck against the God-made varṇāśrama-dharma, and thus a person properly qualified as a brāhmaṇa is called a śūdra, and a śūdra by qualification is passing as a brāhmaṇa, all on a false birthright claim. To become a brāhmaṇa by a birthright claim is not at all bona fide, although it may be a fulfillment of one of the conditions. But the real qualification of a brāhmaṇa is to control the mind and the senses, and to cultivate tolerance, simplicity, cleanliness, knowledge, truthfulness, devotion and faith in the Vedic wisdom. In the present age, consideration of the necessary qualification is being neglected, and the false birthright claim is being supported even by a popular, sophisticated poet and author of Rāmacarita-manas.", + "This is all due to the influence of the age of Kali.

Even fifty years ago, no one would deprive a sādhu of a quart or two of milk, and every householder would give milk like water. For a sanātanist (the follower of Vedic principles) it is the duty of every householder to have cows and bulls as household paraphernalia, not only for drinking milk, but also for deriving religious principles. The sanātanist worships cows on religious principles and respects brāhmaṇas. The cow’s milk is required for the sacrificial fire, and by performing sacrifices the householder can be happy. The cow’s calf is not only beautiful to look at, but also gives satisfaction to the cow, and so she delivers as much milk as possible. But in the Kali-yuga, the calves are separated from the cow as early as possible for purposes which may not be mentioned in these pages of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. The cow stands with tears in her eyes, and the śūdra milkman draws milk from the cow artificially, and when there is no milk the cow is sent to be slaughtered. These greatly sinful acts are responsible for all the troubles in present society. They do not know what they are doing in the name of economic development. The influence of Kali will keep them in the darkness of ignorance, and despite all endeavors for peace and prosperity, they must try to see the cows and the bulls happy in all respects.

The conclusion is that people in the time of Mahārāja Parīkṣit were happy, and the animals were given proper protection because the executive head was not whimsical nor ignorant of God’s law. Foolish faithless creatures try to avoid the existence of the Lord and proclaim themselves secular at the cost of valuable human life. The human life is especially meant for knowing the science of God, but foolish creatures, especially in this age of Kali, instead of knowing God scientifically, make propaganda against religious belief as well as the existence of God, even though they are always bound by the laws of God by the symptoms of birth, death, old age and disease." + ], + "verse_end": 11 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/17/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/17/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..94d2b9f1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/17/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 17, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 1.17.12", + "devanagari": "को ऽवृश्चत्तव पादांस्त्रीन्सौरभेय चतुष्पद\nमा भूवंस्त्वादृशा राष्ट्रे राज्ञां कृष्णानुवर्तिनाम्", + "transliteration": "ko 'vṛścat tava pādāṁs trīn\nsaurabheya catuṣ-pada\nmā bhūvaṁs tvādṛśā rāṣṭre\nrājñāṁ kṛṣṇānuvartinām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who is he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avṛścat", + "meanings": [ + "cut off" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tava", + "meanings": [ + "your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pādān", + "meanings": [ + "legs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "trīn", + "meanings": [ + "three" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saurabheya", + "meanings": [ + "O son of Surabhi" + ] + }, + { + "word": "catuḥ-pada", + "meanings": [ + "you are four-legged" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mā", + "meanings": [ + "never to be" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūvan", + "meanings": [ + "it so happened" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvādṛśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "as yourself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāṣṭre", + "meanings": [ + "in the state" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājñām", + "meanings": [ + "of the kings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇa-anuvartinām", + "meanings": [ + "those who follow the codes of Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "He [Mahārāja Parīkṣit] repeatedly addressed and questioned the bull thus: O son of Surabhi, who has cut off your three legs?

He is the supreme director, for He confirms in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 15.15) that He, as all-pervading Paramātmā, stays in each and every one’s heart and keeps vigilance over all actions and witnesses all activities. The argument of the atheist that one cannot be punished for one’s misdeeds, unless proved before a qualified justice, is refuted herein, for we accept the perpetual witness and constant companion of the living being. A living being may forget all that he might have done in his past or present life, but one must know that in the same tree of the material body, the individual soul and the Supreme Soul as Paramātmā are sitting like two birds. One of them, the living being, is enjoying the fruits of the tree, whereas the Supreme Being is there to witness the activities. Therefore the Paramātmā feature or the Supreme Soul is actually the witness of all activities of the living being, and by His direction only the living being can remember or forget what he might have done in the past. He is, therefore, both the all-pervading impersonal Brahman and the localized Paramātmā in everyone's heart. He is the knower of all past, present and future, and nothing can be concealed from Him. The devotees know this truth, and therefore they discharge their duties sincerely, without being overly anxious for rewards. Besides that, one cannot estimate the Lord's reactions either by speculation or by scholarship. Why does He put some into difficulty and not others? He is the supreme knower of the Vedic knowledge, and thus He is the factual Vedāntist. At the same time He is the compiler of the Vedānta. No one is independent of Him, and everyone is engaged in His service in different ways. In the conditioned state, such services are rendered by the living being under force by the material nature, whereas in the liberated state the living being is helped by the spiritual nature in the voluntary loving service of the Lord. There is no incongruity or inebriety in His actions. All are on the path of Absolute Truth. Bhīṣmadeva correctly estimated the inconceivable actions of the Lord. The conclusion is, therefore, that the sufferings of the representative of religion and the representative of the earth, as present before Mahārāja Parīkṣit, are planned in order to prove that Mahārāja Parīkṣit was the ideal executive head, for he knew well how to give protection to the cows (the earth) and the brāhmaṇas (religious principles), the two pillars of spiritual advancement. Everyone is under the full control of the Lord. He is quite correct in His action when He desires something to be done by someone, irrespective of the consideration of the particular case.

Similarly, the deluding energy is always captivating the conditioned souls to become a prey to the fire of delusion, and the Vedic scriptures warn the conditioned souls not to become a prey to delusion but to get rid of it. The Vedas warn us not to go to the darkness of ignorance but to the progressive path of light. The Lord Himself also warns that the deluding power of material energy is too powerful to overcome, but one who completely surrenders unto the Lord can easily do so. But to surrender unto the lotus feet of the Lord is also not very easy. Such surrender is possible by persons of austerity, cleanliness, mercy and truthfulness. These four principles of advanced civilization were remarkable features in the age of Satya. In that age, every human being was practically a qualified brāhmaṇa of the highest order, and in the social orders of life they were all paramahaṁsas, or the topmost in the renounced order. By cultural standing, the human beings were not at all subjected to the deluding energy. Such strong men of character were competent enough to get away from the clutches of māyā. But gradually, and as the basic principles of brahminical culture, namely austerity, cleanliness, mercy and truthfulness, became curtailed by proportionate development of pride, attachment for women and intoxication, the path of salvation or the path of transcendental bliss retreated far, far away from the human society. With the progression of the age of Kali, people are becoming very proud, and attached to women and intoxication. By the influence of the age of Kali, even a pauper is proud of his penny, the women are always dressed in an overly attractive fashion to victimize the minds of men, and the man is addicted to drinking wine, smoking, drinking tea and chewing tobacco, etc. All these habits, or so-called advancement of civilization, are the root causes of all irreligiosities, and therefore it is not possible to check corruption, bribery and nepotism. Man cannot check all these evils simply by statutory acts and police vigilance, but he can cure the disease of the mind by the proper medicine, namely advocating the principles of brahminical culture or the principles of austerity, cleanliness, mercy and truthfulness. Modern civilization and economic development are creating a new situation of poverty and scarcity with the result of blackmailing the consumer's commodities. If the leaders and the rich men of the society spend fifty percent of their accumulated wealth mercifully for the misled mass of people and educate them in God consciousness or in the knowledge of Bhāgavatam, certainly the age of Kali will be defeated in its attempt to entrap the conditioned souls. We must always remember that false pride, or too high an estimation of one's own values of life, undue attachment to women or association with them, and intoxication will divert the human civilization from the path of peace, however much the people clamor for peace in the world. The preaching of the Bhāgavatam principles will automatically render all men practiced to austerity, clean both inside and outside, merciful to the suffering, and truthful in daily behavior.

The mass of people must be educated to practice these principles from childhood. Austerity means to accept voluntarily things which may not be very comfortable for the body but are conducive for spiritual realization, for example, fasting. Fasting twice or four times a month is a sort of austerity which may be voluntarily accepted for spiritual realization only, and not for any other purposes, political or otherwise. Fastings which are not meant for self-realization but for some other purposes are condemned in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 17.56). Similarly, cleanliness is necessary both for the mind and the body. Simply bodily cleanliness may help to some extent, but cleanliness of the mind is necessary, and it is effected by glorifying the Supreme Lord. No one can cleanse the accumulated mental dust without glorifying the Supreme Lord. A godless civilization cannot cleanse the mind because it has no idea of God, and for this simple reason people under such a civilization cannot have good qualifications, however they may be materially equipped. We have to see things by their resultant action. The resultant action of human civilization in the age of Kali is dissatisfaction, so everyone is anxious to get peace of mind. This peace of mind was complete in the Satya Age because of the existence of the above-mentioned attributes of the human being. Gradually these attributes have diminished in the Treta-yuga to three fourths, in the Dvāpara to half, and in this age of Kali they are diminished to one fourth, which is also gradually diminishing on account of prevailing untruthfulness. By pride, either artificial or real, the resultant action of austerity is spoiled; by too much affection for female association, cleanliness is spoiled; by too much addiction to intoxication, mercifulness is spoiled; and by too much lying propaganda, truthfulness is spoiled.

The administrators cannot prevent corrupt activities by allowing wine shops. They must at once close all shops of intoxicating drugs and wine and force punishment even by death for those who indulge in the habit of intoxication of all description.

The Vedic injunction for the pravṛttas is to gradually regulate their activities towards the path of liberation. Therefore, for those who are in the lowest stage of ignorance and indulge in wine, woman and flesh, drinking by performing Sautrāmaṇī-yajña, association of woman by marriage and flesh-eating by sacrifices are sometimes recommended. But such recommendations in the Vedic literature are meant for a particular class of men, and not for all. But because there are injunctions of the Vedas for particular types of persons, such activities by the pravṛttas are not considered adharma. One man’s food may be poison for others; similarly, what is recommended for those in the modes of ignorance may be poison for those in the modes of goodness.

And to make the best use of a bad bargain, the personality of Kali may be transferred to places of gambling, drinking, prostitution and slaughterhouses, if there are any places like that. Those who are addicted to these irreligious habits may be regulated by the injunctions of the scripture. In all circumstances they should not be encouraged by any state.

So the personality of Kali became gold standardized. According to Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, gold encourages falsity, intoxication, prostitution, envy and enmity. Even a gold standard exchange and currency is bad. Gold standard currency is based on falsehood because currency is not on a par with the reserved gold. The basic principle is falsity because currency notes are issued more in value than the actual reserved gold. This artificial inflation of currency by the authorities encourages prostitution of state economy. The price of commodities becomes artificially inflated because of bad money or artificial currency notes. Bad money drives away good money. Instead of paper currency, actual gold coins should be used for exchange, and this will stop prostitution of gold. Gold ornaments for women may be allowed by control, not by quality, but by quantity. This will discourage lust, envy and enmity. When there is actual gold currency in the form of coins, the influence of gold in producing falsity, prostitution, etc., will automatically cease.

When there is sufficient austerity, cleanliness, mercy and truthfulness, naturally mother earth is completely satisfied, and there is very little chance for Kali to infiltrate the structure of human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/17/verses/43.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/17/verses/43.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6d382aae --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/17/verses/43.json @@ -0,0 +1,148 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 17, + "verse": 43, + "reference": "SB 1.17.43-44", + "devanagari": "स एष एतर्ह्य् अध्यास्त आसनं पार्थिवोचितम्\nपितामहेनोपन्यस्तं राज्ञारण्यं विविक्षता\nआस्ते ऽधुना स राजर्षिः कौरवेन्द्रश्रियोल्लसन्\nगजाह्वये महाभागश्चक्रवर्ती बृहच्छ्रवाः", + "transliteration": "sa eṣa etarhy adhyāsta\nāsanaṁ pārthivocitam\npitāmahenopanyastaṁ\nrājñāraṇyaṁ vivikṣatā\nāste 'dhunā sa rājarṣiḥ\nkauravendra-śriyollasan\ngajāhvaye mahā-bhāgaś\ncakravartī bṛhac-chravāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etarhi", + "meanings": [ + "at the present" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhyāste", + "meanings": [ + "is ruling over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsanam", + "meanings": [ + "the throne" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pārthiva-ucitam", + "meanings": [ + "just befitting a king" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitāmahena", + "meanings": [ + "by the grandfather" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upanyastam", + "meanings": [ + "being handed over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājñā", + "meanings": [ + "by the king" + ] + }, + { + "word": "araṇyam", + "meanings": [ + "forest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vivikṣatā", + "meanings": [ + "desiring" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āste", + "meanings": [ + "is there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhunā", + "meanings": [ + "at present" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājaṛṣiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sage amongst the kings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kauravendra", + "meanings": [ + "the chief amongst the Kuru kings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śriyā", + "meanings": [ + "glories" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ullasan", + "meanings": [ + "spreading" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gajāhvaye", + "meanings": [ + "in Hastināpura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-bhāgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the most fortunate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakravartī", + "meanings": [ + "the Emperor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bṛhat-śravāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "highly famous." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The most fortunate Emperor Mahārāja Parīkṣit, who was entrusted with the kingdom of Hastināpura by Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira when he desired to retire to the forest, is now ruling the world with great success due to his being glorified by the deeds of the kings of the Kuru dynasty.", + "purport": [ + "The prolonged sacrificial ceremonies undertaken by the sages of Naimiṣāraṇya were begun a very little after the demise of Mahārāja Parīkṣit.

We can still purge out from the state all the activities of immorality introduced by the personality of Kali if we are determined to take action like Mahārāja Parīkṣit.

Modern administrators want to banish corruption from the state, but fools as they are, they do not know how to do it. They want to issue licenses for gambling houses, wine and other intoxicating drug houses, brothels and hotel prostitution and cinema houses, and falsity in every dealing, even in their own, and they want at the same time to drive out corruption from the state. They want the kingdom of God without God consciousness. How can it be possible to adjust two contradictory matters? If we want to drive out corruption from the state, we must first of all organize society to accept the principles of religion, namely austerity, cleanliness, mercy and truthfulness, and to make the condition favorable we must close all places of gambling, drinking, prostitution and falsity.

One cannot compare the association of a pure devotee to anything material. Men who are addicted to material happiness aspire to reach the heavenly planets like the moon, Venus, Indraloka, etc., and those who are advanced in material philosophical speculations aspire after liberation from all material bondage. When one becomes frustrated in all kinds of material advancement, one desires the opposite type of liberation, which is called apunar-bhava, or no rebirth. But the pure devotees of the Lord do not aspire after the happiness obtained in the heavenly kingdom, nor do they aspire after liberation from material bondage. In other words, for the pure devotees of the Lord, the material pleasures obtainable in the heavenly planets are like phantasmagoria, and because they are already liberated from all material conceptions of pleasure and distress, they are factually liberated even in the material world. This means that the pure devotees of the Lord are engaged in a transcendental existence, namely, in the loving service of the Lord, both in the material world and in the spiritual world. As a government servant is always the same, either in the office or at home or at any place, so a devotee has nothing to do with anything material, for he is exclusively engaged in the transcendental service of the Lord. Since he has nothing to do with anything material, what pleasure can he derive from material benedictions like kingship or other overlordships, which are finished quickly with the end of the body? Devotional service is eternal, and it has no end because it is spiritual. Therefore, since the assets of a pure devotee are completely different from material assets, there is no comparison between the two. Sūta Gosvāmī was a pure devotee of the Lord, and therefore his association with the ṛṣis in the Naimiṣāraṇya is unique. In the material world, association with gross materialists is veritably condemned.

Such transcendental students are known as impersonalists and devotees of the Lord. The devotee of the Lord worships the transcendental form of the Lord, whereas the impersonalist meditates upon the glaring effulgence or the bodily ray of the Lord, known as the brahmajyoti. Here in this verse it is said that Mahārāja Parīkṣit attained the lotus feet of the Lord by instructions in knowledge delivered by the son of Vyāsadeva, Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Śukadeva Gosvāmī was also an impersonalist in the beginning, as he has admitted himself in the Bhāgavatam (2.1.9), but later on he was attracted by the transcendental pastimes of the Lord and thus became a devotee. Such devotees with perfect knowledge are called mahā-bhāgavata, or first-class devotees. There are three classes of devotees, namely the prakṛta, madhyam, and mahā-bhāgavata. The prakṛta or third-class devotees are temple worshipers without specific knowledge of the Lord and the Lord's devotees. The madhyam, or the second-class devotee, knows well the Lord, the Lord's devotee, the neophytes, and the nondevotees also. But the mahā-bhāgavata, or the first-class devotee, sees everything in relation with the Lord and the Lord present in everyone's relation. The mahā-bhāgavata, therefore, does not make any distinction, particularly between a devotee and nondevotee. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was such a mahā-bhāgavata devotee because he was initiated by a mahā-bhāgavata devotee, Śukadeva Gosvāmī. He was equally kind, even to the personality of Kali, and what to speak of others.", + "So there are many instances in the transcendental histories of the world of an impersonalist who has later become a devotee. But a devotee has never become an impersonalist. This very fact proves that on the transcendental steps, the step occupied by a devotee is higher than the step occupied by an impersonalist. It is also stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 12.5) that persons stuck on the impersonal step undergo more sufferings than achievement of reality. Therefore knowledge imparted by Śukadeva Gosvāmī unto Mahārāja Parīkṣit helped him attain the service of the Lord. And to attain to this stage of perfection is called apavarga, or the perfect stage of liberation. Simple knowledge of liberation is material knowledge. Actual freedom from material bondage is called liberation, but to attain the transcendental service of the Lord is called the perfect stage of liberation. Such a stage is attained by knowledge and renunciation, as we have already explained (Bhāg. 1.2.12), and perfect knowledge, as delivered by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, results in the attainment of transcendental service of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/18/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/18/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c774f8db --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/18/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 1.18.17", + "devanagari": "तन्नः परं पुण्यम् असंवृतार्थम् आख्यानम् अत्यद्भुतयोगनिष्ठम्\nआख्याह्य् अनन्ताचरितोपपन्नं पारीक्षितं भागवताभिरामम्", + "transliteration": "tan naḥ paraṁ puṇyam asaṁvṛtārtham\nākhyānam atyadbhuta-yoganiṣṭham\nākhyāhy anantācaritopapannaṁ\npārīkṣitaṁ bhāgavatābhirāmam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unto us" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṇyam", + "meanings": [ + "purifying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asaṁvṛtārtham", + "meanings": [ + "as it is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākhyānam", + "meanings": [ + "narration" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ati", + "meanings": [ + "very" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adbhuta", + "meanings": [ + "wonderful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoganiṣṭham", + "meanings": [ + "compact in bhakti-yoga" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākhyāhi", + "meanings": [ + "describe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananta", + "meanings": [ + "the Unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ācarita", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upapannam", + "meanings": [ + "full of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pārīkṣitam", + "meanings": [ + "spoken to Mahārāja Parīkṣit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavata", + "meanings": [ + "of the pure devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhirāmam", + "meanings": [ + "particularly very dear." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus please narrate to us the narrations of the Unlimited, for they are purifying and supreme.

But because of higher association, like Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī and the great ṛṣis of Naimiṣāraṇya, certainly the disqualification of inferior birth was washed off. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu followed this principle in pursuance of the Vedic usages, and by His transcendental association He elevated many lowborn, or those disqualified by birth or action, to the status of devotional service and established them in the position of ācāryas, or authorities. He clearly stated that any man, whatever he may be, whether a brāhmaṇa or śūdra by birth, or a householder or mendicant in the order of society, if he is conversant with the science of Kṛṣṇa, he can be accepted as an ācārya or guru, a spiritual master.", + "Sūta Gosvāmī learned the science of Kṛṣṇa from great ṛṣis and authorities like Śukadeva, Vyāsadeva, etc., and he was so qualified that even the sages of Naimiṣāraṇya eagerly wanted to hear from him the science of Kṛṣṇa in the form of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. So he had the double association of great souls by hearing and preaching. Transcendental science or the science of Kṛṣṇa has to be learned from the authorities, and when one preaches the science, he becomes still more qualified. So Sūta Gosvāmī had both the advantages, and thus undoubtedly he was completely freed from all disqualifications of low birth and mental agonies. This verse definitely proves that neither Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī refused to teach Sūta Gosvāmī about the transcendental science, nor the sages of the Naimiṣāraṇya refused to hear lessons from him because of his inferior birth. This means that thousands of years ago there was no bar in learning or preaching the transcendental science because of inferior birth. The rigidity of the so-called caste system in Hindu society became prominent within only one hundred years or so when the number of dvīja-bandhus, or disqualified men in the families of higher castes, increased. Lord Śrī Caitanya revived the original Vedic system, and He elevated Ṭhākur Haridāsa to the position of nāmācārya, or the authority in the preaching of the glories of the holy name of the Lord, although His Holiness Śrīla Haridāsa Ṭhākur was pleased to appear in a family of Mohammedans.", + "Such is the power of pure devotees of the Lord.

Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted to purify the whole atmosphere of the polluted world by sending qualified preachers all over the world, and it remains with the Indians to take up this task scientifically and thus to do the best kind of humanitarian work. The mental diseases of the present generation are more acute than bodily diseases; it is quite fit and proper to take up the preaching of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam all over the world without delay.

They argue that birth in the family of śūdras or less than śūdras is made possible by one’s previous sinful acts, and therefore one has to complete the terms of disadvantages due to lower birth. And to answer these false logicians, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam asserts that one who chants the holy name of the Lord under the direction of a pure devotee can at once get free from the disadvantages due to lower caste birth. A pure devotee of the Lord does not commit any offense while chanting the holy name of the Lord. There are ten different offenses in the chanting of the holy name of the Lord. To chant the holy name under the direction of a pure devotee is offenseless chanting. Offenseless chanting of the holy name of the Lord is transcendental, and, therefore, such chanting can at once purify one from the effects of all kinds of previous sins. This offenseless chanting indicates that one has fully understood the transcendental nature of the holy name and has thus surrendered unto the Lord. Transcendentally the holy name of the Lord and the Lord Himself are identical, being absolute. The holy name of the Lord is as powerful as the Lord. The Lord is the all-powerful Personality of Godhead, and He has innumerable names, which are all nondifferent from Him and are equally powerful also. In the last word of the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord asserts that one who surrenders fully unto Him is protected from all sins by the grace of the Lord. Since His name and He Himself are identical, the holy name of the Lord can protect the devotee from all effects of sins. The chanting of the holy name of the Lord can undoubtedly deliver one from the disadvantages of a lower caste birth.

Self-controlled means not indulging in sense enjoyment more than is necessary. And those who are not self-controlled are given over to sense enjoyment. Dry philosophical speculation is a subtle sense enjoyment of the mind. Sense enjoyment leads one to the path of darkness. Those who are self-controlled can make progress on the path of liberation from the conditional life of material existence. The Vedas, therefore, enjoin that one should not go on the path of darkness but should make a progressive march towards the path of light or liberation. Self-control is actually achieved not by artificially stopping the senses from material enjoyment, but by becoming factually attached to the Supreme Lord by engaging one's unalloyed senses in the transcendental service of the Lord. The senses cannot be forcibly curbed, but they can be given proper engagement. Purified senses are, therefore, always engaged in the transcendental service of the Lord. This perfectional stage of sense engagement is called bhakti-yoga. So those who are attached to the means of bhakti-yoga are factually self-controlled and can all of a sudden give up their homely or bodily attachment for the service of the Lord. This is called the paramahaṁsa stage. Haṁsas, or swans, accept only milk out of a mixture of milk and water. Similarly, those who accept the service of the Lord instead of māyā's service are called the paramahaṁsas. They are naturally qualified with all the good attributes, such as pridelessness, freedom from vanity, nonviolence, tolerance, simplicity, respectability, worship, devotion and sincerity. All these godly qualities exist in the devotee of the Lord spontaneously. Such paramahaṁsas, who are completely given up to the service of the Lord, are very rare. They are very rare even amongst the liberated souls. Real nonviolence means not to be envious. In this world everyone is envious of his fellow being. But a perfect paramahaṁsa, being completely given up to the service of the Lord, is perfectly nonenvious. He loves every living being in relation with the Supreme Lord. Real renunciation means to have perfect dependence on God. Every living being is dependent on someone else because he is so made. Actually everyone is dependent on the mercy of the Supreme Lord, but when one forgets his relation with the Lord, he becomes dependent on the conditions of material nature and thus becomes completely dependent on the mercy of the Lord. Real independence means to have complete faith in the mercy of the Lord without being dependent on the conditions of matter.

In the Bhagavad-gītā also we have the information of the gradual development of perception from matter to a living entity. Our material mind and body develop from the living entity, the soul, and being influenced by the three qualities of matter, we forget our real identity. The jñāna process theoretically speculates about the reality of the soul. But bhakti-yoga factually engages the spirit soul in activities. The perception of matter is transcended to still subtler states of the senses. The senses are transcended to the subtler mind, and then to breathing activities and gradually to intelligence.

The guest enemy, namely Bhīma, was to fight with Jarāsandha, and yet they were given a grand reception. At night they used to sit down together as friends and guests, and in the day they used to fight, risking life and death. That was the law of reception. The reception law enjoins that a poor man, who has nothing to offer his guest, should be good enough to offer a straw mat for sitting, a glass of water for drinking and some sweet words.

It is only a question of good manners.", + "When Mahārāja Parīkṣit entered the door of Śamīka Ṛṣi, he did not expect a royal reception by the Ṛṣi because he knew that saints and ṛṣis are not materially rich men.

He was not an ordinary guest, nor was he an enemy of the Ṛṣi, and therefore the cold reception by the Ṛṣi astonished the King greatly. As a matter of fact, the King was right to get angry with the Ṛṣi when he needed a glass of water very badly. To become angry in such a grave situation was not unnatural for the King, but because the King himself was not less than a great saint, his becoming angry and taking action were astonishing. So it must be accepted that it was so ordained by the supreme will of the Lord. The King was a great devotee of the Lord, and the saint was also as good as the King. But by the will of the Lord, the circumstances were so created that they became ways to the King's becoming unattached to family connection and governmental activities and thus becoming a completely surrendered soul unto the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa. The merciful Lord sometimes creates such awkward positions for his pure devotees in order to drag them towards Himself from the mire of material existence. But outwardly the situations appear to be frustrating to the devotees. The devotees of the Lord are always under the protection of the Lord, and in any condition, frustration or success, the Lord is the supreme guide for the devotees.

By placing Arjuna or the Pāṇḍavas in frustration due to the intrigue of their cousin brothers, the prelude of the Battle of Kurukṣetra was created by the Lord. This was to incarnate the sound representative of the Lord, Bhagavad-gītā. So by placing King Parīkṣit in an awkward position, the incarnation of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was created by the will of the Lord. Being distressed by hunger and thirst was only show, because the King endured much, even in the womb of his mother. He was never disturbed by the glaring heat of the Brahmāstra struck by Aśvatthāmā. The King's distressed condition was certainly unprecedented. The devotees like Mahārāja Parīkṣit are powerful enough to forbear such distresses, by the will of the Lord, and they are never disturbed.

That is a natural arrangement made by the supreme order, for it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā that four social orders or castes, namely the brāhmaṇas, the kṣatriyas, the vaiśyas and the śūdras are set up according to quality and work done by them. Naturally the son of a brāhmaṇa has a good chance to become a brāhmaṇa by the direction of his qualified father, as a son of a medical practitioner has very good chance to become a qualified medical practitioner. So the caste system is quite scientific. The son must take advantage of the father's qualification and thus become a brāhmaṇa or medical practitioner, and not otherwise. Without being qualified, one cannot become a brāhmaṇa or medical practitioner, and that is the verdict of all scriptures and social orders. Herein Śṛṅgi, a qualified son of a great brāhmaṇa, attained the required brahminical power both by birth and training, but he was lacking in culture because he was an inexperienced boy.

This mentality of false prestige is the cause of the downfall of the perfect social order, and we can see that in the beginning it was started by the inexperienced son of a brāhmaṇa. As the dog is never allowed to enter within the room and hearth, although it is reared by the master, similarly, according to Śṛṅgi, the King had no right to enter the house of Śamīka Ṛṣi.

When an offense is done unto the devotee of the Lord, it is very difficult to overcome the reaction. The brāhmaṇas, being at the head of the social orders, are meant to give protection to their subordinates and not to curse them. There are occasions when a brāhmaṇa may furiously curse a subordinate kṣatriya or vaiśya, etc., but in the case of Mahārāja Parīkṣit there was no grounds as already explained. The foolish boy had done it out of sheer vanity in being a brāhmaṇa’s son, and thus he became liable to be punished by the law of God. The Lord never forgives a person who condemns His pure devotee. Therefore the foolish Śṛṅgi had not only committed a sin by cursing a king, but also the greatest offense. Therefore the ṛṣi could foresee that only the Supreme Personality of Godhead could save his boy from his sinful act.

The answer is that the offensive act was performed by a child only so that he could be excused very easily, and thus the prayer of the father was accepted. But if the question is raised why the brāhmaṇa community as a whole was made responsible for allowing Kali into the world affairs, the answer is given in the Varāha Purāṇa that the demons who acted inimically toward the Personality of Godhead but were not killed by the Lord were allowed to take birth in the families of the brāhmaṇas to take advantage of the age of Kali. The all-merciful Lord gave them a chance to have their births in the families of the pious brāhmaṇas so that they could progress toward salvation. But the demons, instead of utilizing the good opportunity, misused the brahminical culture due to being puffed-up by vanity in becoming brāhmaṇas. The typical example is the son of Śamīk Ṛṣi, and all the foolish sons of brāhmaṇas are warned hereby not to become as foolish as Śṛṅgi and be always on guard against the demoniac qualities which they had in their previous births. The foolish boy was, of course, excused by the Lord, but others, who may not have a father like Śamīk Ṛṣi, will be put into great difficulty if they misuse the advantages obtained by birth in a brāhmaṇa family." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/18/verses/48.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/18/verses/48.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1d943ecf --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/18/verses/48.json @@ -0,0 +1,106 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 48, + "reference": "SB 1.18.48", + "devanagari": "तिरस्कृता विप्रलब्धाः शप्ताः क्षिप्ता हता अपि\nनास्य तत्प्रतिकुर्वन्ति तद्भक्ताः प्रभवो ऽपि हि", + "transliteration": "tiras-kṛtā vipralabdhāḥ\nśaptāḥ kṣiptā hatā api\nnāsya tat pratikurvanti\ntad-bhaktāḥ prabhavo 'pi hi", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tiraḥ-kṛtāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being defamed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vipralabdhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being cheated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaptāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being cursed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣiptāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "disturbed by negligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hatāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "or even being killed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "for all these acts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratikurvanti", + "meanings": [ + "counteract" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord's" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "although" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The devotees of the Lord are so forbearing that even though they are defamed, cheated, cursed, disturbed, neglected or even killed, they are never inclined to avenge themselves.", + "purport": [ + "Ṛṣi Śamīk also knew that the Lord does not forgive a person who has committed an offense at the feet of a devotee.

The path of perfection frees one from all material attachments, and thus one becomes fit to enter into the spiritual kingdom. Therefore, those who are materially poverty-stricken are better candidates than those who are materially prosperous. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a great devotee of the Lord and a bona fide candidate for entering into the kingdom of God, but even though he was so, his material assets as the Emperor of the world were setbacks to perfect attainment of his rightful status as one of the associates of the Lord in the spiritual sky.

Śamīka Muni sent news to the King that foolish Śṛṅgi, his son, although a powerful brāhmaṇa boy, unfortunately had misused his spiritual power by cursing the King unwarrantedly. The incidence of the King's garlanding the muni was not sufficient cause for being cursed to death, but since there was no way to retract the curse, the King was informed to prepare for death within a week. Both Śamīka Muni and the King were self-realized souls. Śamīka Muni was a mystic, and Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a devotee. Therefore there was no difference between them in self-realization. Neither of them was afraid of meeting death. Mahārāja Parīkṣit could have gone to the muni to beg his pardon, but the news of imminent death was conveyed to the King with so much regret by the muni that the King did not want to shame the muni further by his presence there. He decided to prepare himself for his imminent death and find out the way to go back to Godhead.", + "The life of a human being is a chance to prepare himself to go back to Godhead, or to get rid of the material existence, the repetition of birth and death. Thus in the system of varṇāśrama-dharma every man and woman is trained up for this purpose. In other words, the system of varṇāśrama-dharma is known also as sanātana-dharma, or eternal occupation. The system of varṇāśrama-dharma prepares a man for going back to Godhead, and thus a householder is ordered to go to the forest as vānaprastha to acquire complete knowledge and then to take sannyāsa prior to his inevitable death. Parīkṣit Mahārāja was fortunate to get a seven-day notice to meet his inevitable death. But for the common man there is no definite notice, although death is inevitable for all. Foolish men forget this sure fact of death and neglect the duty of preparing themselves for going back to Godhead. They spoil their lives in animal propensities to eat, drink, be merry and enjoy. Such an irresponsible life is adopted by the people in the age of Kali because of a sinful desire to condemn brahminical culture, God consciousness and cow protection, for which the state is responsible. The state must employ revenue to advance these three items and thus educate the populace to prepare for death. The state which does so is the real welfare state. The state of India should better follow the examples of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, the ideal executive head, than to imitate other materialistic states which have no idea of the kingdom of Godhead, the ultimate goal of human life.

This earth is one of the innumerable material planets within the universe, and there are innumerable universes also within the compass of the mahat-tattva.

All these planets are eternally situated in the spiritual sky, the Paravyoma, which is on the other side of the Causal Ocean within the mahat-tattva. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was already aware of all this information due to his accumulated piety and birth in a high family of devotees, the Vaiṣṇavas, and thus he was not at all interested in the material planets. Modern scientists are very eager to reach the moon by material arrangements, but they cannot conceive of the highest planet of this universe. But a devotee like Mahārāja Parīkṣit does not care a fig for the moon or, for that matter, any of the material planets. So when he was assured of his death on a fixed date, he became more determined in the transcendental loving service of the Lord Kṛṣṇa by complete fasting on the bank of the transcendental River Yamunā which flows down by the capital of Hastināpura (in the Delhi state).

Generally it is said that the King took shelter on the bank of the Ganges, but according to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, the King took shelter on the bank of the Yamunā. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī's statement appears to be more accurate because of the geographical situation. Mahārāja Parīkṣit resided in his capital Hastināpura, situated near present Delhi, and the River Yamunā flows down past the city. Naturally the King would take shelter of the River Yamunā because she was flowing past his palace door. And as far as sanctity is concerned, the River Yamunā is more directly connected with Lord Kṛṣṇa than the Ganges. The Lord sanctified the River Yamunā from the beginning of His transcendental pastimes in the world. While His father Vasudeva was crossing the Yamunā with the baby Lord Kṛṣṇa for a safe place at Gokula on the other bank of the river from Mathurā, the Lord fell down in the river, and by the dust of His lotus feet the river at once became sanctified. It is especially mentioned herein that Mahārāja Parīkṣit took shelter of that particular river which is beautifully flowing, carrying the dust of the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa, mixed with tulasī leaves. Lord Kṛṣṇa’s lotus feet are always besmeared with the tulasī leaves, and thus as soon as His lotus feet are contacted with the water of the Ganges and the Yamunā, the rivers become at once sanctified. The Lord, however, contacted the River Yamunā more than the Ganges. According to the Varāha Purāṇa, as quoted by Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, there is no difference between the water of the Ganges and the Yamunā, but when the water of the Ganges is sanctified one hundred times, it is called the Yamunā. Similarly, it is said in the scriptures that one thousand names of Viṣṇu are equal to one name of Rāma, and three names of Lord Rāma are equal to one name of Kṛṣṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/19/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/19/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..41aeb81e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/19/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,106 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 19, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 1.19.7", + "devanagari": "इति व्यवच्छिद्य स पाण्डवेयः प्रायोपवेशं प्रति विष्णुपद्याम्\nदधौ मुकुन्दांघ्रिम् अनन्यभावो मुनिव्रतो मुक्तसमस्तसंगः", + "transliteration": "iti vyavacchidya sa pāṇḍaveyaḥ\nprāyopaveśaṁ prati viṣṇu-padyām\ndadhau mukundāṅghrim ananya-bhāvo\nmuni-vrato mukta-samasta-saṅgaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyavacchidya", + "meanings": [ + "having decided" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāṇḍaveyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "worthy descendant of the Pāṇḍavas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāya-upaveśam", + "meanings": [ + "for fasting until death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prati", + "meanings": [ + "towards" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣṇu-padyām", + "meanings": [ + "on the bank of the Ganges (emanating from the lotus feet of Lord Viṣṇu)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadhau", + "meanings": [ + "gave himself up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukunda-aṅghrim", + "meanings": [ + "unto the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananya", + "meanings": [ + "without deviation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "spirit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muni-vrataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the vows of a sage" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukta", + "meanings": [ + "liberated from" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samasta", + "meanings": [ + "all kinds of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "association." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus the King, the worthy descendant of the Pāṇḍavas, decided once and for all and sat on the Ganges' banks to fast until death and give himself up to the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa, who alone is able to award liberation.

Mahārāja Parīkṣit, therefore, decided to meditate upon the lotus feet of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is Mukunda, or the giver of liberations of all description. The banks of the Ganges or the Yamunā give one a chance to remember the Lord continuously. Mahārāja Parīkṣit freed himself from all sorts of material association and meditated upon the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa, and that is the way of liberation. To be free from all material association means to cease completely from committing any further sins. To meditate upon the lotus feet of the Lord means to become free from the effects of all previous sins. The conditions of the material world are so made that one has to commit sins willingly or unwillingly, and the best example is Mahārāja Parīkṣit himself, who was a recognized sinless pious king. But he also became a victim of an offense, even though he was ever unwilling to commit such a mistake. And he was cursed also, but because he was a great devotee of the Lord, even such reverses of life became favorable. The principle is that one should not willingly commit any sin in his life and should constantly remember the lotus feet of the Lord without deviation. In such a mood only the Lord will help the devotee to make regular progress towards the path of liberation and thus attain the lotus feet of the Lord.

Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said that to be in intimate touch with dollars and cents men, or the kingly order, is worse than suicide for one who desires to go back to Godhead. In other words, the transcendentalists do not generally associate with men who are too enamored by the external beauty of God's creation. By advanced knowledge in spiritual realization, the transcendentalist knows that this beautiful material world is nothing but a shadowy reflection of the reality, the kingdom of God. They are not, therefore, very much captivated by royal opulence or anything like that. But in the case of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, the situation was different. Apparently the King was condemned to death by an inexperienced brāhmaṇa boy, but factually he was called by the Lord to return to Him. Other transcendentalists, the great sages and mystics who assembled together because of Mahārāja Parīkṣit's fasting unto death, were quite anxious to see him, for he was going back to Godhead. Mahārāja Parīkṣit also could understand that the great sages who assembled there were all kind to his forefathers, the Pāṇḍavas, because of their devotional service of the Lord. He felt, therefore, grateful to the sages for being present there at the last stage of his life, and he felt that it was all due to the greatness of his late forefathers or grandfathers. He felt proud, therefore, that he happened to be the descendant of such great devotees.

The first question is what is the duty of everyone in all circumstances, and the second question is what is the specific duty of one who is to die very shortly. Out of the two, the question relating to the dying man is most important because everyone is a dying man, either very shortly or after one hundred years. The duration of life is immaterial, but the duty of a dying man is very important. Mahārāja Parīkṣit placed these two questions before Śukadeva Gosvāmī also on his arrival, and practically the whole of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, beginning from the Second Canto up to the last Twelfth Canto, deals with these two questions. The conclusion arrived at thereof is that devotional service of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, as it is confirmed by the Lord Himself in the last phases of the Bhagavad-gītā, is the last word in relation to everyone's permanent duty in life. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was already aware of this fact, but he wanted the great sages assembled there to unanimously give their verdict on his conviction so that he might be able to go on with his confirmed duty without controversy. He has especially mentioned the word śuddha, or perfectly correct. For transcendental realization or self-realization, many processes are recommended by various classes of philosophers. Some of them are first-class methods, and some of them are second-or third-class methods. The first class method demands that one give up all other methods and surrender unto the lotus feet of the Lord and thus be saved from all sins and their reactions." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/19/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/19/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..97856059 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/01/chapters/19/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 1, + "chapter": 19, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 1.19.25", + "devanagari": "तत्राभवद्भगवान्व्यासपुत्रो यदृच्छया गाम् अटमानो ऽनपेक्षः\nअलक्ष्यलिंगो निजलाभतुष्टो वृतश्च बालैर् अवधूतवेषः", + "transliteration": "tatrābhavad bhagavān vyāsa-putro\nyadṛcchayā gām aṭamāno 'napekṣaḥ\nalakṣya-liṅgo nija-lābha-tuṣṭo\nvṛtaś ca bālair avadhūta-veṣaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhavat", + "meanings": [ + "appeared" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyāsa-putraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "son of Vyāsadeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadṛ", + "meanings": [ + "is as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "icchayā", + "meanings": [ + "one desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gām", + "meanings": [ + "the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṭamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "while traveling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anapekṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "disinterested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alakṣya", + "meanings": [ + "unmanifested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "liṅgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "symptoms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nija-lābha", + "meanings": [ + "self-realized" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tuṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "surrounded by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bālaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by children" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avadhūta", + "meanings": [ + "neglected by others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "dressed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "At that moment there appeared the powerful son of Vyāsadeva who traveled over the earth disinterested and satisfied with himself.

His father, Vyāsadeva, was his natural spiritual master because he heard Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from him. After this, he became completely self-satisfied. Thus he was not dependent on any formal process. The formal processes are necessary for those who are expected to reach the stage of complete liberation, but Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī was already in that status by the grace of his father. As a young boy he was expected to be properly dressed, but he went about naked and was disinterested in social customs. He was neglected by the general populace, and inquisitive boys and women surrounded him as if he were a madman. He thus appears on the scene while traveling on the earth on his own accord. It appears that to the inquiry of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, the great sages were not unanimous in their decision as to what was to be done. For spiritual salvation there were many prescriptions according to the different modes of different persons.

Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa from his childhood, so he had natural affection for Kṛṣṇa, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī could understand his devotion to Lord Kṛṣṇa.

Mahārāja Parīkṣit wanted to absorb his mind completely in Kṛṣṇa, and such absorption can be effected simply by hearing about the uncommon activities of Kṛṣṇa. For instance, in the Bhagavad-gītā it is stated that simply by understanding the transcendental nature of Lord Kṛṣṇa's appearance, disappearance, and activities, one can immediately return back to home, back to Godhead, and never come back to this miserable condition of material existence. It is very auspicious, therefore, to hear always about Kṛṣṇa. So Mahārāja Parīkṣit requested Śukadeva Gosvāmī to narrate the activities of Kṛṣṇa so that he could engage his mind in Kṛṣṇa. The activities of Kṛṣṇa are nondifferent from Himself. As long as one is engaged in hearing such transcendental activities of Kṛṣṇa, he remains aloof from the conditional life of material existence.

Being engaged in all these materialistic activities, the living soul entangles himself in the cycle of the law of fruitive actions. This entails the chain of birth and death in the 8,400,000 species of life: the aquatics, the vegetables, the reptiles, the birds, the beasts, the uncivilized man, and then again the human form, which is the chance of getting out of the cycle of fruitive action. Therefore, if one desires freedom from this vicious circle, then one must cease to act as a karmī or enjoyer of the results of one's own work, good or bad. One should not do anything, either good or bad, on his own account, but must execute everything on behalf of the Supreme Lord, the ultimate proprietor of everything that be. This process of doing work is recommended in the Bhagavad-gītā also (Bg. 9.27), where instruction is given for working on the Lord's account. Therefore, one should first of all hear about the Lord. When one has perfectly and scrutinizingly heard, one must glorify His acts and deeds, and thus it will become possible to remember constantly the transcendental nature of the Lord. Hearing and glorifying the Lord are identical with the transcendental nature of the Lord, and by so doing, one will be always in the association of the Lord. This brings freedom from all sorts of fearfulness. The Lord is the Supersoul (Paramātmā) present in the hearts of all living beings, and thus by the above hearing and glorifying process, the Lord invites the association of all in His creation. This process of hearing and glorifying the Lord is applicable for everyone, whoever he may be, and it will lead one to the ultimate success in everything in which one may be engaged by providence. There are many classes of human beings: the fruitive workers, the empiric philosophers, the mystic yogīs, and ultimately, the unalloyed devotees. For all of them, one and the same process is applicable for achieving the desired success. Everyone wants to be free from all kinds of fearfulness, and everyone wants the fullest extent of happiness in life. The perfect process for achieving this, here and now, is recommended in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, which is uttered by a great authority like Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī. By hearing and glorifying the Lord, all a person's activities become molded into spiritual activities, and thus all conception of material miseries becomes completely vanquished." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ef4f9061 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 2.1.6", + "devanagari": "एतावान्सांख्ययोगाभ्यां स्वधर्मपरिनिष्ठया\nजन्मलाभः परः पुंसाम् अन्ते नारायणस्मृतिः", + "transliteration": "etāvān sāṅkhya-yogābhyāṁ\nsva-dharma-pariniṣṭhayā\njanma-lābhaḥ paraḥ puṁsām\nante nārāyaṇa-smṛtiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "etāvān", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sāṅkhya", + "meanings": [ + "complete knowledge of matter and spirit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogābhyām", + "meanings": [ + "knowledge of mystic power" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-dharma", + "meanings": [ + "particular occupational duty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pariniṣṭhayā", + "meanings": [ + "by full perception" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "birth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lābhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "gain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṁsām", + "meanings": [ + "of a person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ante", + "meanings": [ + "at the end" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smṛtiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "remembrance." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The highest perfection of human life, achieved either by complete knowledge of matter and spirit, by practice of mystic powers, or by perfect discharge of occupational duty, is to remember the Personality of Godhead at the end of life.", + "purport": [ + "Nārāyaṇa is the transcendental Personality of Godhead beyond the material creation.

(Bg. 4.9) The common man, who is under the spell of material energy, takes it for granted that the Lord is like one of us, and therefore he refuses to accept the transcendental nature of the Lord's form, name, etc. The topmost transcendentalist is not interested in anything material, and his taking interest in the matter of the Lord's activities is definite proof that the Lord is not like one of us in the material world. In the Vedic literatures also, it is confirmed that the Supreme Lord is one, but that He is engaged in His transcendental pastimes in the company of His unalloyed devotees and that simultaneously He is present as the Supersoul, an expansion of Baladeva, in the heart of all living entities. Therefore, the highest perfection of transcendental realization is to take pleasure in hearing and describing the transcendental qualities of the Lord and not in merging into His impersonal Brahman existence, as the impersonalist monist aspires. Real transcendental pleasure is realized in the glorification of the transcendental Lord, and not in the feeling of being situated in His impersonal feature.

Śukadeva Gosvāmī, being a recognized liberated soul and the topmost transcendentalist, was accepted by all of the topmost sages present in the meeting during the last seven days of Mahārāja Parīkṣit. He cites from the example of his life that he himself was attracted by the transcendental activities of the Lord, and he studied Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from his great father, Śrī Dvaipāyana Vyāsadeva. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, or, for that matter, any other scientific literature, cannot be studied at home by one's own intellectual capacity. Medical books of anatomy or physiology are available in the market, but no one can become a qualified medical practicioner simply by reading such books at home. One has to be admitted to the medical college and study the books under the guidance of learned professors. Similarly, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the postgraduate study of the science of Godhead, can only be learned by studying it at the feet of a realized soul like Śrīla Vyāsadeva. Although Śukadeva Gosvāmī was a liberated soul from the very day of his birth, he still had to take lessons of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from his great father, Vyāsadeva, who compiled the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam under the instruction of another great soul, Śrī Nārada Muni. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu instructed a learned brāhmaṇa to study Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from a personal bhāgavatam. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is based on the transcendental name, form, attributes, pastimes, entourage and variegatedness of the Supreme Person, and it is spoken by the incarnation of the Personality of Godhead, Śrīla Vyāsadeva. Pastimes of the Lord are executed in cooperation with His pure devotees, and consequently historical incidences are mentioned in this great literature because they are related to Kṛṣṇa. It is called brahma-sammitam because it is the sound representative of Lord Kṛṣṇa—like the Bhagavad-gītā. Bhagavad-gītā is the sound incarnation of the Lord because it is spoken by the Supreme Lord, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the sound representative of the Lord because it was spoken by the incarnation of the Lord about the activities of the Lord. As stated in the beginning of this book, it is the essence of the Vedic desire-tree and the natural commentation on the Brahma-sūtras, the topmost philosophical thesis on the subject matter of Brahman. Vyāsadeva appeared at the end of Dvāpara-yuga as the son of Satyavatī, and therefore the word Dvāpara-ādau, or \"beginning of Dvāpara-yuga,\" in this context means just prior to the beginning of the Kali-yuga. The logic of this statement is, according to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, comparable to calling the upper portion of the tree the beginning. The root of the tree is the beginning of the tree, but in common knowledge, the upper portion of the tree is first seen. In that way the end of the tree is accepted as its beginning." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..83153664 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 2.1.9", + "devanagari": "परिनिष्ठितो ऽपि नैर्गुण्य उत्तमश्लोकलीलया\nगृहीतचेता राजर्षे आख्यानं यद् अधीतवान्", + "transliteration": "pariniṣṭhito 'pi nairguṇya\nuttama-śloka-līlayā\ngṛhīta-cetā rājarṣe\nākhyānaṁ yad adhītavān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pariniṣṭhitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fully realized" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "in spite of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nairguṇye", + "meanings": [ + "in transcendence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttama", + "meanings": [ + "enlightened" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śloka", + "meanings": [ + "verse" + ] + }, + { + "word": "līlayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the pastimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhīta", + "meanings": [ + "being attracted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cetāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attention" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājarṣe", + "meanings": [ + "O saintly King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākhyānam", + "meanings": [ + "delineation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhītavān", + "meanings": [ + "I have studied." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O saintly King, I was certainly situated perfectly in transcendence, yet I was still attracted by the delineation of the pastimes of the Lord, who is described by enlightened verses.", + "purport": [ + "The Absolute Truth is realized as the impersonal Brahman at the first instance by philosophical speculation and later on as the Supersoul by further progress of transcendental knowledge.

The spiritual master must be satisfied with the disciple; only then is knowledge automatically manifest before the student of spiritual science. It should not, however, be misunderstood to be something like magical feats whereby the spiritual master acts like a magician and injects spiritual knowledge into his disciple, as if surcharging him with an electrical current. The bona fide spiritual master reasonably explains everything to the disciple on the authorities of Vedic wisdom. The disciple can receive such teachings not exactly intellectually, but by submissive inquiries and a service attitude. The idea is that both the spiritual master and the disciple must be bona fide. In this case, the spiritual master, Śukadeva Gosvāmī, is ready to recite exactly what he has learned from his great father Śrīla Vyāsadeva, and the disciple, Mahārāja Parīkṣit, is a great devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa. A devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa is he who believes sincerely that by becoming a devotee of the Lord one becomes fully equipped with everything spiritual. This teaching is imparted by the Lord Himself in the pages of the Bhagavad-gītā, in which it is clearly described that the Lord (Śrī Kṛṣṇa) is everything, and to surrender unto Him solely and wholly makes one the most perfectly pious man. This unflinching faith in Lord Kṛṣṇa prepares one to become a student of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and one who hears Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from a devotee like Śukadeva Gosvāmī is sure to attain salvation at the end, as Mahārāja Parīkṣit did. The professional reciter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and the pseudo-devotees whose faith is based on one week's hearing are different from the duo of Śukadeva Gosvāmī and Mahārāja Parīkṣit. Śrīla Vyāsadeva explained Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam unto Śukadeva Gosvāmī from the very beginning of the \"janmādyasya\" verse, and so Śukadeva Gosvāmī also explained it to the King. Lord Kṛṣṇa is described as the Mahāpuruṣa in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (Canto 11) in His devotional feature as Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Lord Kṛṣṇa Himself in His devotional attitude, descended on earth to bestow special favors upon the fallen souls of this age of Kali. There are two verses particularly suitable to offer as prayers to this Mahāpuruṣa feature of Lord Kṛṣṇa.", + "dhyeyaṁ sadā paribhava-ghnam abhīṣṭa-dohaṁ

(Bhāg. 11.5.33)", + "In other words, puruṣa means the enjoyer, and mahāpuruṣa means the supreme enjoyer, or the Supreme Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa. One who deserves to approach the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is called the mahāpauruṣika. Anyone who hears Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam attentively from its bona fide reciter is sure to become a sincere devotee of the Lord, who is able to award liberation. There was none so attentive as Mahārāja Parīkṣit in the matter of hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and there was none so qualified as Śukadeva Gosvāmī to recite the text of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Therefore, anyone who follows the footsteps of either the ideal reciter or the ideal hearer, Śukadeva Gosvāmī and Mahārāja Parīkṣit respectively, will undoubtedly attain salvation like them. Mahārāja Parīkṣit attained salvation by hearing only, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī attained salvation by reciting only. Recitation and hearing are two processes out of nine devotional activities, and by strenuously following the principles, either in all or by parts, one can attain the absolute plane. So the complete text of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, beginning with the \"janmādyasya\" verse up to the last one in the twelfth canto, was spoken by Śukadeva Gosvāmī for the attainment of salvation by Mahārāja Parīkṣit. In the Padma Purāṇa, it is mentioned that Gautama Muni advised Mahārāja Ambarīṣa to hear regularly Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam as it was recited by Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and herein it is confirmed that Mahārāja Ambarīṣa heard Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from the very beginning to the end, as it was spoken by Śukadeva Gosvāmī. One who is, therefore, actually interested in the Bhāgavatam must not play with it by reading or hearing a portion from here and a portion from there, but one must follow the footsteps of great kings like Mahārāja Ambarīṣa or Mahārāja Parīkṣit and hear it from a bona fide representative of Śukadeva Gosvāmī." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..20065751 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,83 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 2.1.11", + "devanagari": "एतन्निर्विद्यमानानाम् इच्छताम् अकुतोभयम्\nयोगिनां नृप निर्णीतं हरेर्नामानुकीर्तनम्", + "transliteration": "etan nirvidyamānānām\nicchatām akuto-bhayam\nyogināṁ nṛpa nirṇītaṁ\nharer nāmānukīrtanam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "it is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirvidyamānānām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who are completely free from all material desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "icchatām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who are desirous of all sorts of material enjoyment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akuto-bhayam", + "meanings": [ + "free from all doubts and fear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoginām", + "meanings": [ + "of all who are self-satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛpa", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirṇītam", + "meanings": [ + "decided truth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord, Śrī Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma", + "meanings": [ + "holy name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anu", + "meanings": [ + "after someone, always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kīrtanam", + "meanings": [ + "chanting." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O King, constant chanting of the holy name of the Lord after the ways of the great authorities is the doubtless and fearless way of success for all, including those who are free from all material desires, and also those who are desirous of all material enjoyment, as well as those who are self-satisfied by dint of transcendental knowledge.", + "purport": [ + "In the previous verse, the great necessity for attaining attachment to Mukunda has been accredited. There are different types of persons who desire to attain success in different varieties of pursuits. Generally the persons are materialists who desire to enjoy the fullest extent of material gratification. Next to them are the transcendentalists, who have attained perfect knowledge about the nature of material enjoyment and thus are aloof from such an illusory way of life. More or less, they are satisfied in themselves by self-realization. Above them are the devotees of the Lord, who neither aspire to enjoy the material world nor desire to get out of it. They are after the satisfaction of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa. In other words, the devotees of the Lord do not want anything on their personal account. If the Lord desires, the devotees can accept all sorts of material facilities, and if the Lord does not desire, the devotees can leave aside all sorts of facilities, even up to the limit of salvation. Nor are they self-satisfied, because they want the satisfaction of the Lord only. In this verse, Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī recommends the transcendental chanting of the holy name of the Lord. By offenseless chanting and hearing of the holy name of the Lord, one becomes acquainted with the transcendental form of the Lord, and then with the attributes of the Lord, and then with the transcendental nature of His pastimes, etc. Here it is mentioned that one should constantly chant the holy name of the Lord after hearing it from authorities. This means hearing from the authorities is the first essential. Hearing of the holy name gradually promotes one to the stage of hearing about His form and so on about His attributes, His pastimes, etc., and thus the necessity of the chanting of His glories develops successively. This process is recommended not only for the successful execution of devotional service, but also even for those who are materially attached. According to Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī, this way of attaining success is an established fact, concluded not only by him, but also by all other previous ācāryas. Therefore, there is no need of further evidence. The process is recommended not only for the progressive students in different departments of ideological success, but also for those who are already successful in their achievement as fruitive workers, as philosophers or as devotees of the Lord.", + "Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī instructs that chanting of the holy name of the Lord should be loudly done, and it should be performed offenselessly as well, as is recommended in the Padma Purāṇa. One can deliver himself from the effects of all sins by surrendering himself unto the Lord. One can deliver himself from all offenses at the feet of the Lord by taking shelter of His holy name. But one cannot protect himself if one commits an offense at the feet of the holy name of the Lord. Such offenses are mentioned in the Padma Purāṇa as being ten in number. The first offense is to vilify the great devotees who have preached about the glories of the Lord. The second offense is to see the holy names of the Lord in terms of worldly distinction. The Lord is the proprietor of all the universes, and therefore He may be known in different places by different names, but that does not in any way qualify the fullness of the Lord. Any nomenclature which is meant for the Supreme Lord is as holy as the others because they are all meant for the Lord. Such holy names are as powerful as the Lord, and there is no bar for anyone in any part of the creation to chant and glorify the Lord by the particular name of the Lord as it is locally understood.They are all auspicious, and one should not distinguish such names of the Lord as material commodities. The third offense is to neglect the orders of the authorized ācāryas or the spiritual masters. The fourth offense is to vilify scriptures or Vedic knowledge. The fifth offense is to define the holy name of the Lord in terms of one's mundane calculation. The holy name of the Lord is identical with the Lord Himself, and one should understand the holy name of the Lord to be nondifferent from Him. The sixth offense is to interpret the holy name. The Lord is not imaginary, nor is His holy name. There are persons with a poor fund of knowledge who think the Lord to be an imagination of the worshiper and therefore think His holy name to be imaginary. Such a chanter of the name of the Lord cannot achieve the desired success in the matter of chanting the holy name. The seventh offense is to commit sins intentionally on the strength of the holy name. In the scriptures it is said that one can be liberated from the effects of all sinful actions simply by chanting the holy name of the Lord; one who takes advantage of this transcendental method and continues to commit sins on the expectation of neutralizing the effects of sins by chanting the holy name of the Lord is the greatest offender at the feet of the holy name. Such an offender cannot purify himself by any recommended method of purification. In other words, one may be a sinful man before chanting the holy name of the Lord, but after taking shelter in the holy name of the Lord and becoming immune, one should strictly restrain oneself from committing sinful acts with a hope that his method of chanting the holy name will give him protection. The eighth offense is to consider the holy name of the Lord and His chanting method to be equal to some material auspicious activity. There are various kinds of good works for material benefits, but the holy name and His chanting are no mere auspicious holy services. Undoubtedly the holy name is holy service, but He should never be utilized for such purposes. Since the holy name and the Lord are of one and the same identity, one should not try to bring the holy name into the service of mankind. The idea is that the Supreme Lord is the supreme enjoyer. He is no one's servant or order supplier. Similarly, since the holy name of the Lord is identical with the Lord, one should not try to utilize the holy name for one's personal service.", + "The ninth offense is to instruct those who are not interested in chanting the holy name of the Lord about the transcendental nature of the holy name. If such instruction is imparted to an unwilling audience, the act is considered to be an offense at the feet of the holy name. The tenth offense is to become disinterested in the holy name of the Lord even after hearing of the transcendental nature of the holy name. The effect of chanting the holy name of the Lord is perceived by the chanter as liberation from the conception of false egoism. False egoism is exhibited by thinking oneself to be the enjoyer of the world and thinking everything in the world to be meant for the enjoyment of one's self only. The whole materialistic world is moving under such false egoism of \"I\" and \"mine,\" but the factual effect of chanting the holy name is to become free from such misconception." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..654b7bdd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 2.1.12", + "devanagari": "किं प्रमत्तस्य बहुभिः परोक्षैर्हायनैर् इह\nवरं मुहूर्तं विदितं घटते श्रेयसे यतः", + "transliteration": "kiṁ pramattasya bahubhiḥ\nparokṣair hāyanair iha\nvaraṁ muhūrtaṁ viditaṁ\nghaṭate śreyase yataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pramattasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the bewildered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by many" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parokṣaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unexperienced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hāyanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "years" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varam", + "meanings": [ + "better" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muhūrtam", + "meanings": [ + "a moment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viditam", + "meanings": [ + "conscious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghaṭate", + "meanings": [ + "one can try for" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śreyase", + "meanings": [ + "in the matter of the supreme interest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by that." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "What is the value of a prolonged life which is wasted, inexperienced by years in this world? Better a moment of full consciousness, because that gives one a start in searching after his supreme interest.", + "purport": [ + "Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī instructed Mahārāja Parīkṣit about the importance of chanting the holy name of the Lord by every progressive gentleman. In order to encourage the King, who had only seven remaining days of life, Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī asserted that there is no use in living hundreds of years without any knowledge of the problems of life—better to live for a moment with full consciousness of the supreme interest to be fulfilled. The supreme interest of life is eternal, with full knowledge and bliss. Those who are bewildered by the external features of the material world and are engaged in the matter of the animal propensities of the eat-drink-and-be-merry type of life are simply wasting their lives by the unseen passing away of valuable years. We should know in perfect consciousness that human life is bestowed upon the conditioned soul to achieve spiritual success, and the easiest possible procedure to attain this end is to chant the holy name of the Lord. In the previous verse, we have discussed this point to a certain extent, and we may further be enlightened on the different types of offenses committed unto the feet of the holy name. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī Prabhu has quoted many passages from authentic scriptures and has ably supported the statements in the matter of offenses at the feet of the holy name. From Viṣṇu-jāmala Tantra, Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has proven that one can be liberated from the effects of all sins simply by chanting the holy name of the Lord. Quoting from the Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa, Śrī Gosvāmījī says that one should neither blaspheme the devotee of the Lord nor indulge in hearing others who are engaged in belittling a devotee of the Lord. A devotee should try to restrict the vilifier by cutting out his tongue, and being unable to do so, one should commit suicide rather than hear the blaspheming of the devotee of the Lord. The conclusion is that one should neither hear nor allow vilification of a devotee of the Lord. As far as distinguishing the Lord's holy name from the names of the demigods, the revealed scriptures disclose (Bg. 10.41) that all extraordinarily powerful beings are but parts and parcels of the supreme energetic, Lord Kṛṣṇa. Except the Lord Himself, everyone is subordinate; no one is independent of the Lord. Since no one is more powerful than or equal to the energy of the Supreme Lord, no one's name can be as powerful as that of the Lord. By chanting the Lord's holy name, one can derive all the stipulated energy synchronized from all sources. Therefore, one should not equalize the supreme holy name of the Lord with any other name. Brahmā, Śiva or any other powerful god can never be equal to the Supreme Lord Viṣṇu. The powerful holy name of the Lord can certainly deliver one from sinful effects, but one who desires to utilize this transcendental potency of the holy name of the Lord in one's sinister activities is the most degraded person in the world. Such persons are never excused by the Lord or by any agent of the Lord. One should, therefore, utilize one's life in glorifying the Lord by all means, without any offense. Such activity of life, even for a moment, is never to be compared with a prolonged life of ignorance, like the lives of the tree and other living entities who may live for thousands of years without prosecuting spiritual advancement." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e34fdc30 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 2.1.13", + "devanagari": "खट्वांगो नाम राजर्षिर्ज्ञात्वेयत्ताम् इहायुषः\nमुहूर्तात्सर्वम् उत्सृज्य गतवान् अभयं हरिम्", + "transliteration": "khaṭvāṅgo nāma rājarṣir\njñātveyattām ihāyuṣaḥ\nmuhūrtāt sarvam utsṛjya\ngatavān abhayaṁ harim", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "khaṭvāṅgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "King Khaṭvāṅga" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma", + "meanings": [ + "name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājaṛṣiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "saintly king" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jñātvā", + "meanings": [ + "by knowing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iyattām", + "meanings": [ + "duration" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āyuṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of one's life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muhūrtāt", + "meanings": [ + "within only a moment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvam", + "meanings": [ + "everything" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utsṛjya", + "meanings": [ + "leaving aside" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatavān", + "meanings": [ + "had undergone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhayam", + "meanings": [ + "fully safe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "harim", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The saintly King, Mahārāja Khaṭvāṅga, after being informed that the duration of his life would be only a moment more, at once got himself freed from all material activities and took shelter of the supreme safety, the Personality of Godhead.", + "purport": [ + "A fully responsible man should always be conscious of the prime duty of the present human form of life. The activities of life to meet the immediate necessities of material life are not everything. One should always be alert in his duty for attainment of the best situation in the next life. Human life is meant for preparing ourselves for that prime duty. Mahārāja Khaṭvāṅga is mentioned herein as the saintly King because even within the responsibility of the state management, he was not at all forgetful of the prime duty of life. Such was the case with other rājarṣis (saintly kings), like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and Mahārāja Parīkṣit. They were all exemplary personalities on account of their being alert in discharging their prime duty. Mahārāja Khaṭvāṅga was invited by the demigods in the higher planets to fight demons, and as a king, he fought the battles to the full satisfaction of the demigods. The demigods, being fully satisfied with him, wanted to give him some benediction for material enjoyment, but Mahārāja Khaṭvāṅga, being very much alert to his prime duty, inquired from the demigods about his remaining duration of life. This means that he was not as anxious to accumulate some material benediction from the demigods as he was to prepare himself for the next life. He was, however, informed by the demigods that his life would last only a moment longer. The King at once left the heavenly kingdom, which is always full of material enjoyment of the highest standard, and coming down on this earth, took ultimate shelter of the all-safe Personality of Godhead. He was successful in his great attempt and got liberation. This attempt, even for a moment, by the saintly King, was successful because he was always alert to his prime duty. Mahārāja Parīkṣit was thus encouraged by the great Śukadeva Gosvāmī, even though he had only seven days left in his life to execute the prime duty of hearing the glories of the Lord in the form of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

Great statesmen, scientists, philosophers, etc., who are foolish, without any information of the spirit soul, think that this life of a few years only is all in all and that there is nothing more after death. This poor fund of knowledge, even in the so-called learned circles of the world, is killing the vitality of human energy, and the awful result is being keenly felt. And yet the foolish materialistic men do not care for what is going to happen in the next life. The preliminary instruction in the Bhagavad-gītā is that one should know that the identity of the individual living entity is not lost even after the end of this present body, which is nothing but outward dress only. As one changes an old garment, so the individual living being also changes his body, and this change of body is called death. Death is, therefore, a process of changing the body at the end of the duration of the present life. An intelligent person must be prepared for this and must try to have the best type of body in the next life. The best type of body is a spiritual body, which is obtained by those who go back to the kingdom of God or enter the realm of Brahman. In the second chapter of this canto, this matter will be broadly discussed, but in as far as the change of body is concerned, one must prepare now for the next life. Foolish people attach more importance to the present temporary life, and thus the foolish leaders make appeals to the body and the bodily relations. The bodily relations not only extend to this body but also to the family members, wife, children, society, country and so many other things which end at the end of life. After death one forgets everything about the present bodily relations; we have a little experience of this at night when we go to sleep. While sleeping, we forget everything about this body and bodily relations, although this forgetfulness is a temporary situation for only a few hours. Death is nothing but sleeping for a few months in order to develop another term of bodily encagement, which we are awarded by the law of nature according to our aspiration. Therefore, one has only to change the aspiration during the course of this present body, and for this, there is need of training in the current duration of human life. This training can be begun at any stage of life, or even a few seconds before death, but the usual procedure is for one to get the training from very early life, from the stage of brahmacarya, and gradually progress to the gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa orders of life. The institution which gives such training is called varṇāśrama-dharma, or the system of sanātana-dharma, the best procedure for making the human life perfect. One is, therefore, required to give up the attachment to family or social or political life just at the age of fifty years, if not earlier, and the training in the vānaprastha and sannyāsa āśramas is given for preparation of the next life. Foolish materialists, in the garb of leaders of the people in general, stick to family affairs without attempting to cut off relations with them, and thus they become victims of nature's law and get gross bodies again, according to their work. Such foolish leaders may have some respect from the people at the end of life, but that does not mean that such leaders will be immune from the natural laws under which everyone is tightly bound by the hands and feet. The best thing is, therefore, that everyone voluntarily give up family relations by transferring the attachment from family, society, country and everything thereof to the devotional service of the Lord. It is stated herein that one should give up all desires of family attachment. One must have a chance for better desires; otherwise there is no chance of giving up such morbid desires. Desire is the concomitant factor of the living entity. The living entity is eternal, and therefore his desires, which are natural for a living being, are also eternal. One cannot, therefore, stop desiring, but the subject matter for desires can be changed. So one must develop the desires for returning home, back to Godhead, and automatically the desires for material gain, material honor and material popularity will diminish in proportion to the development of devotional service.

The system of varṇāśrama-dharma or sanātana-dharma prescribes retirement from family encumbrances as early as possible after one has passed fifty years of age. Modern civilization is based on family comforts, the highest standard of amenities, and therefore, everyone expects to live a very comfortable life after retirement in a well furnished home decorated with fine ladies and children, without any desire to get out of such a comfortable home. High government officers and ministers stick to their prize posts until death, and they neither dream nor desire to get out of homely comforts. Bound by such hallucinations, materialistic men prepare various plans for a still more comfortable life, but suddenly cruel death comes without mercy and takes away the great planmaker against his desire, forcing him to give up the present body for another body. Such a planmaker is thus forced to accept another body in one of the 8,400,000 species of life according to the fruits of the work which he might have performed. In the next life, generally, persons who are too much attached to family comforts are awarded lower species of life on account of sinful acts performed during a long duration of sinful life, and thus all the energy of the human life is spoiled. In order to be saved from the danger of spoiling the human form of life and being attached to unreal things, one must take warning of death at the age of fifty, if not earlier. The principle is that one should take it for granted that the death warning is already there, even prior to the attainment of fifty years of age, and thus at any stage of life one should prepare himself for a better next life. The system of the sanātana-dharma institution is so made that the follower is trained for the better next life without any chance of the human life being spoiled. The holy places all over the world are meant for the residential purposes of retired persons getting ready for the better next life. Intelligent persons must go there at the end of life, and for that matter, after fifty years of age, to live a life of spiritual regeneration for the sake of being freed from family attachment, which is considered to be the shackle of material life. One is recommended to quit home just to get rid of material attachment, because one who sticks to family life until death cannot get rid of material attachment, and as long as one is materially attached, one cannot understand spiritual freedom. One should not, however, become self-complacent simply by leaving home or by creating another home at the holy place either lawfully or unlawfully. Many persons leave home and go to such holy places, but due to bad association, again become family men by illicit connection with the opposite sex. The illusory energy of matter is so strong that one is apt to be under such illusion at every stage of life, even after quitting one's happy home. Therefore, it is essential that one should practice self-control by celibacy without the least desire for sex indulgence. Sex indulgence, for a man desiring to improve the condition of his existence, is considered to be suicidal, or even worse. Therefore, to live apart from family life means to become self-controlled from all sense desires, especially sex desires. The method is that one should have a sitting place duly sanctified, made of straw, skin of the deer and carpet, and thus sitting on it one should chant the holy name of the Lord without offense, as prescribed above. The whole process is to drag the mind from material engagements and fix it on the lotus feet of the Lord. This simple process alone will help one advance to the highest stage of spiritual success." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4649ca66 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 2.1.17", + "devanagari": "अभ्यसेन्मनसा शुद्धं त्रिवृद्ब्रह्माक्षरं परम्\nमनो यच्छेज्जितश्वासो ब्रह्मबीजम् अविस्मरन्", + "transliteration": "abhyasen manasā śuddhaṁ\ntrivṛd-brahmākṣaraṁ param\nmano yacchej jita-śvāso\nbrahma-bījam avismaran", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "abhyaset", + "meanings": [ + "just get it into practice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manasā", + "meanings": [ + "by the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuddham", + "meanings": [ + "sacred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "trivṛt", + "meanings": [ + "composed of the three" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmākṣaram", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental letters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yacchet", + "meanings": [ + "get under control" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jita-śvāsaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by regulating the breathing air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "absolute" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bījam", + "meanings": [ + "seed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avismaran", + "meanings": [ + "without being forgotten." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After sitting in the above manner, make the mind remember the three transcendental letters [A.U.M.], and by regulating the breathing process, control the mind so as not to forget the transcendental seed.", + "purport": [ + "Omkāra or the praṇava is the seed of transcendental realization, and it is composed of three transcendental letters A.U.M. By its chanting by the mind, in conjunction with the breathing process, which is a transcendental but mechanical way of getting into trance, as devised by the experience of great mystics, one is able to bring the mind, which is materially absorbed, under control. This is a way of changing the habit of the mind. The mind is not to be killed. Mind or desire cannot be stopped, but to develop a desire to function for spiritual realization, the quality of engagement by the mind has to be changed. The mind is the pivot of the active sense organs, and as such if the quality of thinking, feeling and willing is changed, naturally the quality of actions by the instrumental senses will also change. Omkāra is the seed of all transcendental sound, and it is the transcendental sound only which can bring about the desired change of the mind and the senses. Even a mentally deranged man can be cured by treatment of transcendental sound. In the Bhagavad-gītā, the praṇava or omkāra has been accepted as the direct literal representation of the Supreme Absolute Truth. One who is not able to chant directly the holy name of the Lord, as recommended above, can easily chant the praṇava or omkāra. This omkāra is a note of address, such as, \"O my Lord,\" just as \"om hari om\" means \"O my Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.\" As we have explained before, the Lord's holy name is identical with the Lord Himself. So also is omkāra. But persons who are unable to realize the transcendental personal form or name of the Lord on account of their imperfect senses (in other words, the neophytes) are trained to the practice of self-realization by this mechanical process of regulating the breathing function and simultaneously repeating the praṇava omkāra within the mind. As we have several times expressed, since the transcendental name, form, attributes, pastimes, etc., of the Personality of Godhead are impossible to be understood by the present material senses, it is necessary that through the mind, the center of sensual activities, such transcendental realization be set into motion. The devotees, however, directly fix their minds on the Person of the Absolute Truth. But one who is unable to accommodate such personal features of the Absolute is disciplined in that impersonality to train the mind to make further progress." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d7dba3b5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 2.1.18", + "devanagari": "नियच्छेद्विषयेभ्यो ऽक्षान्मनसा बुद्धिसारथिः\nमनः कर्मभिर् आक्षिप्तं शुभार्थे धारयेद्धिया", + "transliteration": "niyacched viṣayebhyo 'kṣān\nmanasā buddhi-sārathiḥ\nmanaḥ karmabhir ākṣiptaṁ\nśubhārthe dhārayed dhiyā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "niyacchet", + "meanings": [ + "withdraw" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣayebhyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from sense engagements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṣān", + "meanings": [ + "the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manasā", + "meanings": [ + "by dint of the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "buddhi", + "meanings": [ + "intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sārathiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "driver" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the fruitive work" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākṣiptam", + "meanings": [ + "being absorbed in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śubhārthe", + "meanings": [ + "for the sake of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhārayet", + "meanings": [ + "hold up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiyā", + "meanings": [ + "in full consciousness." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Gradually, as the mind becomes progressively spiritualized, withdraw it from sense activities, and by intelligence the senses will be controlled.

But experience has proven that even the samādhi stage also fails to control the materially-absorbed mind. For example, the great mystic Viśvāmitra Muni, even in the stage of samādhi, became a victim of the senses and cohabited with Menakā. History has already recorded it. The mind, although ceasing to think of sensual activities at present, remembers past sensual activities from the subconscious status and thus disturbs one from cent per cent engagement in self-realization. Therefore, Śukadeva Gosvāmī recommends the next step of assured policy, namely to fix one's mind in the service of the Personality of Godhead. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, also recommends this direct process in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 6.47).

Viṣṇu-tattva is an unlimited expansion of different transcendental forms of the Personality of Godhead, and the supreme or original form of Viṣṇu-tattva is Govinda or Lord Kṛṣṇa, the supreme cause of all causes. Therefore, thinking of Viṣṇu or meditation upon the transcendental form of Viṣṇu, specifically upon Lord Kṛṣṇa, is the last word on the subject of meditation. This meditation may be begun from the lotus feet of the Lord. One should not, however, forget or be misled from the complete form of the Lord; thus one should practice thinking of the different parts of His transcendental body, one after another. Here in this verse, it is definitely assured that the Supreme Lord is not impersonal. He is a person, but His body is different from those of conditioned persons like us. Otherwise, meditation beginning from the praṇava omkāra up to the limbs of the personal body of Viṣṇu would not have been recommended by Śukadeva Gosvāmī for the attainment of complete spiritual perfection. The Viṣṇu forms of worship in great temples of India are not, therefore, arrangements of idol worship, as it is wrongly interpreted by a class of men with a poor fund of knowledge, but they are different spiritual centers of meditation on the transcendental limbs of the body of Viṣṇu. The worshipable deity in the temple of Viṣṇu is identical with Lord Viṣṇu by the inconceivable potency of the Lord. Therefore, a neophyte's concentration or meditation upon the limbs of Viṣṇu in the temple, as contemplated in the revealed scriptures, is an easy opportunity for meditation for persons who are unable to sit down tightly at one place and then concentrate upon praṇava omkāra or the limbs of the body of Viṣṇu, as recommended herein by Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the great authority. The common man can benefit more by meditating on the form of Viṣṇu in the temple than on the omkāra, the spiritual combination of A.U.M. as explained before. There is no difference between omkāra and the forms of Viṣṇu, but persons who are unacquainted with the science of Absolute Truth try to create dissension by differentiating between the forms of Viṣṇu and that of omkāra. Here it is indicated that the Viṣṇu form is the ultimate goal of meditation, and as such it is better to concentrate upon the forms of Viṣṇu than on impersonal omkāra, as the latter process is more difficult than the former." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3d5805f7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 2.1.20", + "devanagari": "रजस्तमोभ्याम् आक्षिप्तं विमूढं मन आत्मनः\nयच्छेद्धारणया धीरो हन्ति या तत्कृतं मलम्", + "transliteration": "rajas-tamobhyām ākṣiptaṁ\nvimūḍhaṁ mana ātmanaḥ\nyacched dhāraṇayā dhīro\nhanti yā tat-kṛtaṁ malam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "rajaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "passionate modes of nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamobhyām", + "meanings": [ + "as well as by the ignorant modes of material nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākṣiptam", + "meanings": [ + "agitated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimūḍham", + "meanings": [ + "bewildered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of one's own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yacchet", + "meanings": [ + "get it rectified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhāraṇayā", + "meanings": [ + "by conception (of Viṣṇu)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhīraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the pacified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hanti", + "meanings": [ + "destroys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yā", + "meanings": [ + "all those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-kṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "done by them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "malam", + "meanings": [ + "dirty things." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One's mind is always agitated by the passionate modes of material nature and bewildered by the ignorant modes of nature.

He can see, hear, touch or manifest Himself from anywhere and everywhere, for He is present everywhere as the Supersoul of all infinitesimal souls, although He has His particular abode in the absolute world. This relative world is also His phenomenal representation because it is nothing but the expansion of His transcendental energy. Although He is in His abode, still His energy is distributed everywhere, just as the sun is localized as well as expanded everywhere and the rays of the sun, being nondifferent from the sun, are accepted as expansions of the sun disc. In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa (V.P. 1.22.52) it is said that as fire expands its rays and heat from one place, similarly the Supreme Spirit, the Personality of Godhead, expands Himself by His manifold energy everywhere and anywhere. The phenomenal manifestation of the gigantic universe is only a part of His virāṭa body. The less intelligent class of men cannot conceive of the transcendental all-spiritual form of the Lord, but they are astounded by His different energies just as the aborigines are struck with wonder by the manifestation of lightning, a gigantic mountain or a hugely expanded banyan tree. The aborigines praise the strength of the tiger and the elephant because of their superior energy and strength. The asuras also cannot recognize the existence of the Lord, although there are vivid descriptions of the Lord in the revealed scriptures, although the Lord incarnates and exhibits His uncommon strength and energy, and although He is accepted as the Supreme Personality of Godhead by learned scholars and saints like Vyāsadeva, Nārada, Asita and Devala in the past and by Arjuna in the Bhagavad-gītā, as also by the ācāryas like Śaṅkara, Rāmānuja, Madhva and Lord Śrī Caitanya in the modern age. The asuras do not accept any evidential proof from the revealed scriptures, nor do they recognize the authority of the great ācāryas. They want to see eye to eye at once. Therefore they can see the gigantic body of the Lord as virāṭa, which will answer their challenge, and as they are accustomed to pay homage to superior material strength like that of the tiger, elephant, lightning, etc., they can offer respect to the virāṭa rūpa. Lord Kṛṣṇa, by the request of Arjuna, exhibited His virāṭa rūpa for the asuras. A pure devotee of the Lord, being unaccustomed to look into such mundane gigantic form of the Lord, requires special vision for the purpose. The Lord, therefore, favored Arjuna with special vision for looking into His virāṭa rūpa, described in the Eleventh Chapter of the Bhagavad-gītā. This virāṭa rūpa of the Lord was especially manifested, not for the benefit of Arjuna, but for that unintelligent class of men who accept anyone and everyone as the incarnation of the Lord and so mislead the general mass of people. For them, the indication is that one should ask the cheap incarnation to exhibit his virāṭa rūpa and thus be established as an incarnation. The virāṭa rūpa manifestation of the Lord is simultaneously a challenge to the atheist and a favor for the asuras who can think of the Lord as virāṭa and thus gradually cleanse the dirty things in their hearts in order to become qualified to actually see the transcendental form of the Lord in the near future.

He is complete, and although innumerable complete forms are being emanated from Him, He is still complete without any loss. That is His spiritual or internal potency. In the Eleventh Chapter of the Bhagavad-gītā, the Personality of Godhead, Lord Kṛṣṇa, manifested His virāṭa rūpa just to convince the less intelligent class of men, who cannot conceive of the Lord as appearing just like a human being, that He factually has the potency of His claim to be the Supreme Absolute Person without any rival or superior. Materialistic men can think, although very imperfectly, of the huge universal space, comprehending an innumerable number of planets as big as the sun. They can see only the circular sky overhead, without any information that this universe, as well as many other hundreds of thousands of universes, are each covered by sevenfold material coverings of water, fire, air, sky, ego, noumenon and material nature, just like a huge football, pumped and covered, floating on the water of the Causal Ocean, wherein the Lord is lying as Mahā-Viṣṇu. All the universes in seed are emanating from the breathing of the Mahā-Viṣṇu, who is but part of a partial expansion of the Lord, and all the universes presided over by the Brahmās vanish when the Mahā-Viṣṇu withdraws His great breathing. In this way, the material worlds are being created and vanished by the supreme will of the Lord. The poor foolish materialist can just imagine how ignorantly he puts forward an insignificant creature to become His rival incarnation, simply on the allegations of a dying man. The virāṭa rūpa was particularly exhibited by the Lord just to give lessons to such foolish men, so that one can accept a person as the incarnation of Godhead only if such a person is able to exhibit such virāṭa rūpa as Lord Kṛṣṇa did. The materialistic person may concentrate his mind upon the virāṭa or gigantic form of the Lord in his own interest and as recommended by Śukadeva Gosvāmī, but he must be on his guard not to become misled by pretenders who claim to be the identical person with Lord Kṛṣṇa but are not able to act like Him or exhibit the virāṭa rūpa, comprehending the whole of the universe." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e6c9b728 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/01/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,118 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 2.1.26", + "devanagari": "पातालम् एतस्य हि पादमूलम्पठन्ति पार्ष्णिप्रपदे रसातलम्\nमहातलं विश्वसृजो ऽथ गुल्फौ तलातलं वै पुरुषस्य जंघे", + "transliteration": "pātālam etasya hi pāda-mūlam\npaṭhanti pārṣṇi-prapade rasātalam\nmahātalaṁ viśva-sṛjo 'tha gulphau\ntalātalaṁ vai puruṣasya jaṅghe", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pātālam", + "meanings": [ + "the planet in the bottom of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etasya", + "meanings": [ + "of his" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "exactly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāda-mūlam", + "meanings": [ + "soles of the feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paṭhanti", + "meanings": [ + "they study it" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pārṣṇi", + "meanings": [ + "of the ankles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prapade", + "meanings": [ + "under the foot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rasātalam", + "meanings": [ + "the planets named Rasātala" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahātalam", + "meanings": [ + "the planet named Mahātala" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśva-sṛjaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the creator of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gulphau", + "meanings": [ + "the calves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tala", + "meanings": [ + "the planet named Tala" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atala", + "meanings": [ + "the planet named Atala" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "as they are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the gigantic person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jaṅghe", + "meanings": [ + "on the knees." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Persons who have realized it have studied that the planets known as Pātāla constitute the bottom of the feet of the Universal Lord, and the ankles and the soles are the Rasātala planets.

He moves with the progress of time, and, therefore, He knows all about the past and future, along with His present activities. There is nothing unknown to Him. The conditioned souls are driven by the reactions of the modes of material nature, which are the activities of the Lord. As it is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.12), the modes of nature act under His direction only, and as such no natural functions are blind or automatic. The power behind the activities is the supervision of the Lord, and as such, the Lord is never inactive as is wrongly conceived. The Vedas say that the Supreme Lord has nothing to do personally, as is always the case with superiors, but everything is done by His direction. As it is said, not a blade of grass moves without His sanction. In the Brahma-saṁhitā (verse 48), it is said that all the universes and the heads of them (the Brahmās) exist only for the duration of His breathing period. The same is confirmed here.

His appearance in the material world as one of us is also His causeless mercy upon the fallen souls. Although He is transcendental to all material conceptions, still by His unbounded mercy upon His pure devotees, He comes down and manifests Himself as the Personality of Godhead. Materialistic philosophers and scientists are too much engrossed with atomic energy and the gigantic situation of the universal form, and they offer respect more seriously to the external phenomenal feature of material manifestations than to the noumenal principle of spiritual existence. The transcendental form of the Lord is beyond the jurisdiction of such materialistic activities, and it is very difficult to conceive that the Lord can be simultaneously localized and all-pervasive, because the materialistic philosophers and scientists think of everything in terms of their own experience. Because they are unable to accept the personal feature of the Supreme Lord, the Lord is kind enough to demonstrate the virāṭa feature of His transcendental form, and herein Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī has vividly described this form of the Lord. He concludes there is nothing beyond this gigantic feature of the Lord. None of the materialistic thoughtful men can go beyond this conception of the gigantic form. The minds of the materialistic men are flickering and constantly changing from one aspect to the other. Therefore, one is advised to think of the Lord by thinking of any part of His gigantic body and by one's intelligence only. One can think of Him in any manifestation of the material world—the forest, the hill, the ocean, the man, the animal, the demigod, the bird, the beast or anything else. Each and every item of the material manifestation entails a part of the body of the gigantic form, and thus the flickering mind can be fixed in the Lord only and nothing else. This process of concentrating on the different bodily parts of the Lord will gradually diminish the demoniac challenge of godlessness and bring about gradual development of devotional service of the Lord. Everything being the part and parcel of the Complete Whole, the neophyte student will gradually realize the hymns of Īśopaniṣad which state that the Supreme Lord is everywhere, and thus he will learn the art of not committing any offense on the body of the Lord. This sense of God-mindedness will diminish one's pride of challenging the existence of God.

He tries to impress upon us that instead of diverting our attention to several branches of self-realization, we should concentrate upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead as the supreme object of realization, worship and devotion. Self-realization is, as it were, offering a fight for eternal life against the material struggle for existence, and therefore by the illusory grace of the external energy, the yogī or the devotee is faced with many allurements which can entangle a great fighter again in the bondage of material existence. A yogī can attain miraculous successes in the matter of material achievements, and they are called aṇimā, laghimā, etc., by which one can become more minute than the minutest or lighter than the lightest, or in the ordinary sense, may achieve material benedictions in the shape of wealth and women. But he is warned against such allurements because to become again entangled in such illusory pleasure means degradation of the self and further imprisonment in the material world. By this warning, one should follow one's vigilant intelligence only.", + "The Supreme Lord is one, and His expansions are various. He is, therefore, the Supersoul of everything. When a man sees anything, he must know that his seeing is secondary and the Lord's seeing is primary. One cannot see anything without the Lord's having first seen it. That is the instruction of the Vedas and the Upaniṣads. So whatever we see or do, the Supersoul of all acts of seeing or doing is the Lord. This theory of simultaneous oneness and difference between the individual soul and the Supersoul is propounded by Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu as the philosophy of acintya-bhedābheda-tattva. The virāṭa rūpa, or the gigantic feature of the Supreme Lord, includes everything materially manifested, and therefore the virāṭa or gigantic feature of the Lord is the Supersoul of all living and nonliving entities. But the virāṭa rūpa is also the manifestation of Nārāyaṇa or Viṣṇu, and going further on and on one will eventually see that Lord Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate Supersoul of everything that be. The conclusion is that one should unhesitatingly become a worshiper of Lord Kṛṣṇa, or, for that matter, His plenary expansion, Nārāyaṇa, and none else. In the Vedic hymns, it is clearly said that first of all Nārāyaṇa cast a glance over matter and thus there was creation. Before creation, there was neither Brahmā nor Śiva, and what to speak of others. Śrīpād Śaṅkarācārya has definitely accepted this, that Nārāyaṇa is beyond the material creation and all others are within the material creation. The whole material creation is, therefore, one and different from Nārāyaṇa, simultaneously, and this supports the philosophy of acintya-bhedābheda-tattva of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Being an emanation from the glancing potency of Nārāyaṇa, the whole material creation is nondifferent from Him. But because it is the effect of His external energy (bahiraṅgā-māyā) and is aloof from the internal potency (ātma-māyā), the whole material creation is different from Him at the same time. The example given in this verse very nicely is that of the dreaming man. The dreaming man creates many things in the dream, and thus he himself becomes the entangled seer of the dream and is also affected by the consequences. This material creation is also exactly a dream-like creation of the Lord, but He, being the transcendental Supersoul, is neither entangled nor affected by the reactions of such a dream-like creation. He is always in His transcendental position, but essentially He is everything, and nothing is apart from Him. One should therefore concentrate on Him only as His part and parcel without deviation, otherwise one is sure to be overcome by the potencies of the material creation, one after another.

Brahmājī is the incarnation of one of the mundane attributes of the Lord. Being the incarnation of the passion-mode of material nature, he is empowered by the Lord to generate the beautiful material manifestation. Yet, due to his becoming one of the numerous living entities, he is apt to forget the art of his creative energy. This forgetfulness of the living being—beginning from Brahmā down to the lowest insignificant ant—is a tendency which can be counteracted by meditation on the virāṭa rūpa of the Lord. This chance is available in the human form of life, and if a human being follows the instruction of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and begins to meditate upon the virāṭa rūpa, then revival of his pure consciousness and counteraction to the tendency of his forgetfulness of his eternal relationship with the Lord can follow simultaneously. And as soon as this forgetfulness is removed, at once the vyavasāya-buddhi, as it is stated here and in the Bhagavad-gītā (2.41), follows at once. This ascertained knowledge of the living being leads to loving service of the Lord, which the living being requires. The kingdom of God is unlimited; therefore the number of the assisting hands of the Lord is also unlimited. The Bhagavad-gītā asserts that the Lord has His hands, legs, eyes and mouths in every nook and corner of His creation (Bg. 13.13). This means that the expansions of differentiated parts and parcels, called jīvas or the living entities, are assisting hands of the Lord, and all of them are meant for rendering a particular pattern of service to the Lord. The conditioned soul, even in the position of a Brahmā, forgets this by the influence of illusory material energy generated out of false egoism. Such false egoism can be counteracted by invoking God consciousness. Liberation means getting out of the slumber of forgetfulness and becoming situated in the real loving service of the Lord, as it is exemplified in the case of Brahmā. The service of Brahmā is the sample of service in liberation distinguished from the so-called altruistic services full of mistakes and forgetfulness. Liberation is never inaction, but service without human mistakes." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3ad8462f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 2.2.2", + "devanagari": "शाब्दस्य हि ब्रह्मण एष पन्था यन्नामभिर्ध्यायति धीर् अपार्थैः\nपरिभ्रमंस्तत्र न विन्दते ऽर्थान्मायामये वासनया शयानः", + "transliteration": "śābdasya hi brahmaṇa eṣa panthā\nyan nāmabhir dhyāyati dhīr apārthaiḥ\nparibhramaṁs tatra na vindate 'rthān\nmāyāmaye vāsanayā śayānaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śābdasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Vedic sound" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "panthā", + "meanings": [ + "the way" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "what is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by different names" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhyāyati", + "meanings": [ + "ponders over, dhīḥ—intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apārthaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by meaningless ideas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paribhraman", + "meanings": [ + "wandering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vindate", + "meanings": [ + "enjoys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arthān", + "meanings": [ + "realities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyāmaye", + "meanings": [ + "in illusory things" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsanayā", + "meanings": [ + "by different desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śayānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "as if dreaming in sleep." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The way of presentation of the Vedic sounds is so bewildering that the intelligence of the people is directed to meaningless things, like the heavenly kingdoms, etc. The conditioned souls hover in a dream of such heavenly illusory pleasures, but actually they do not relish any tangible happiness in such places.", + "purport": [ + "The conditioned soul is always engaged in laying out plans for happiness within the material world, even up to the end of the universal limit.

But the Lord has warned us in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 8.16) about the worthlessness of all the innumerable planets of this universe, as well as those planets within other systems. There are innumerable universes and also innumerable planets in each of them. But none of them is immune to the chief miseries of material existence, namely the pangs of birth, the pangs of death, the pangs of old age and the pangs of disease. The Lord says that even the topmost planet known as the Brahmaloka or Satyaloka (and what to speak of other planets, like the heavenly planets, etc.) is not a happy land for residential purposes due to the presence of material pangs, as above mentioned. Conditioned souls are strictly under the laws of fruitive activities, and as such they go up to Brahmaloka sometimes and again come down to the Pātālaloka, as if they were unintelligent children on a merry-go-round. The real happiness is in the kingdom of God, where no one has to undergo the pangs of material existence. Therefore, the Vedic ways of fruitive activities by the living entities are misleading. One thinks of a superior way of life in this country or that, or in this planet or another, but nowhere in the material world can he fulfill his real desire of life, namely eternal life, full intelligence and complete bliss. Indirectly Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī affirms that Mahārāja Parīkṣit, in the last stage of life, should not desire to transfer himself to the so-called heavenly planets, but should prepare himself for going back home, back to Godhead.

The whole universe, or for that matter all material existence, is moving on as jagat, simply for planning business to make one's position very comfortable or secure, although everyone sees that this existence is neither comfortable nor secure, nor can it ever become comfortable or secure at any stage of development. Those who are captivated by the illusory advancement of material civilization (following the way of phantasmagoria) are certainly madmen. The whole material creation is a jugglery of names only; in fact, it is nothing but a bewildering creation of matters like earth, water and fire. The buildings, furniture, cars, bungalows, mills, factories, industries, peace, war or even the highest perfection of material science, namely the atomic energy and electronics, are all simply bewildering names of material elements with their concomitant reactions of the three modes. Since the devotee of the Lord knows them perfectly well, he is not interested in creating unwanted things for a situation which is not at all reality, but simply names of no more significance than the babble of sea waves. The great kings, leaders and soldiers fight with one another in order to perpetuate their names in history. They are forgotten in due course of time, and they make place for another era in history. But the devotee realizes how much history and historical persons are useless products of flickering time. The fruitive worker aspires after a big fortune in the matter of wealth, woman and worldly adoration, but those who are fixed in perfect reality are not at all interested in such false things. For them it is all a waste of time. Since every second of human life is important, an enlightened man should be very careful to utilize time very cautiously. One second of human life wasted in the vain research of planning happiness in the material world can never be replaced, even by spending millions of coins of gold. Therefore, the transcendentalist desiring freedom from the clutches of māyā, or the illusory activities of life, is warned herewith not to be captivated by the external features of fruitive actors. Human life is never meant for sense gratification, but for self-realization. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam instructs us solely on this subject from the very beginning to the end. Human life is simply meant for self-realization. The civilization which aims at this utmost perfection never indulges in creating unwanted things, and such a perfectional civilization prepares men only to accept the bare necessities of life or to follow the principle of the best use of a bad bargain. Our material bodies and our lives in that connection are bad bargains because the living entity is actually spirit, and spiritual advancement of the living entity is absolutely necessary. Human life is intended for the realization of this important factor, and one should act accordingly, accepting only the bare necessities of life and depending more on God's gift without diversion of human energy for any other purpose, such as being mad for material enjoyment. Such materialistic advancement of civilization is called \"the civilization of the demons,\" which ultimately ends in wars and scarcity. The transcendentalist is specifically warned herewith to be fixed in mind, so that even if there is difficulty in plain living and high thinking he will not budge even an inch from his stark determination. For a transcendentalist, it is a suicidal policy to be intimately in touch with the sense-gratifiers of the world, because such a policy will frustrate the ultimate gain of life. Śukadeva Gosvāmī met Mahārāja Parīkṣit when the latter felt a necessity for such a meeting. It is the duty of a transcendentalist to help persons who desire real salvation and to support the cause of salvation. One might note that Śukadeva Gosvāmī never met Mahārāja Parīkṣit while he was ruling as a great king. For a transcendentalist, the mode of activities is explained in the next śloka." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ed3c5bef --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 2.2.4", + "devanagari": "सत्यां क्षितौ किं कशिपोः प्रयासैर्बाहौ स्वसिद्धे ह्य् उपबर्हणैः किम्\nसत्य् अंजलौ किं पुरुधान्नपात्र्या दिग्वल्कलादौ सति किं दुकूलैः", + "transliteration": "satyāṁ kṣitau kiṁ kaśipoḥ prayāsair\nbāhau svasiddhe hy upabarhaṇaiḥ kim\nsaty añjalau kiṁ purudhānna-pātryā\ndig-valkalādau sati kiṁ dukūlaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "satyām", + "meanings": [ + "being in possession" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣitau", + "meanings": [ + "earthly flats" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "where is the necessity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaśipoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of bed and cots" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prayāsaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "endeavoring for" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bāhau", + "meanings": [ + "the arms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svasiddhe", + "meanings": [ + "being self-sufficient" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upabarhaṇaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "bed and bedstead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what is the use" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sati", + "meanings": [ + "being present" + ] + }, + { + "word": "añjalau", + "meanings": [ + "the palms of the hands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what is the use" + ] + }, + { + "word": "purudhā", + "meanings": [ + "varieties of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anna", + "meanings": [ + "eatables" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pātryā", + "meanings": [ + "by the utensils" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dik", + "meanings": [ + "open space" + ] + }, + { + "word": "valkala-ādau", + "meanings": [ + "skins of trees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sati", + "meanings": [ + "being existent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what is the use of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dukūlaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "clothes." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When there are ample earthly flats to lie on, then what is the necessity of cots and beds?

Human energy is spoiled in a vain search after such illusory happiness. If one is able to lie down on the floor, then why should one endeavor to get a good bedstead or soft cushion to lie on? If one can rest without any pillow and make use of the soft arms endowed by nature, there is no necessity of searching after a pillow. If we make a study of the general life of the animals, we can see that they have no intelligence to build big houses, furniture, and other household paraphernalia, and yet they maintain a healthy life by lying down on the open land. They do not know how to cook or prepare foodstuff, yet they still live healthy lives more easily than the human being. This does not mean that human civilization should revert to animal life nor that the human being should live naked in the jungles without any culture, education, and sense of morality. An intelligent human cannot live the life of an animal; rather, man should try to utilize his intelligence in arts and science, poetry and philosophy. In such a way he can further the progressive march of human civilization. But here the idea given by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī is that the reserve energy of human life, far superior to that of animals, should simply be utilized for self-realization. Advancement of human civilization must be towards the goal of establishing our lost relationship with God, which is not possible in any form of life other than the human. One must realize the nullity of the material phenomenon, considering it a passing phantasmagoria, and must endeavor to make a solution to the miseries of life. Self-complacence with a polished type of animal civilization geared to sense gratification is delusion, and such a \"civilization\" is not worthy of the name. In pursuit of such false activities, a human being is in the clutches of māyā, or illusion. Great sages and saints in the days of yore were not living in palatial buildings furnished with good furniture and so-called amenities of life. They used to live in huts and groves and sit on the flat ground, and yet they have left immense treasures of high knowledge with all perfection. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī and Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī were high-ranking ministers of state, but they were able to leave behind them immense writings on transcendental knowledge, while residing only for one night underneath one tree. They did not live even two nights under the same tree, and what to speak of well-furnished rooms with modern amenities. And still they were able to give us most important literatures of self-realization. So-called comforts of life are not actually helpful for progressive civilization; rather, they are detrimental to such progressive life. In the system of sanātana-dharma of four divisions of social life and four orders of progressive realization, there are ample opportunities and sufficient directions for a happy termination of the progressive life, and the sincere followers are advised there to accept a voluntary life of renunciation in order to achieve the desired goal of life. If one is not accustomed to abide by the life of renunciation and self-abnegation from the beginning, one should try to get into the habit at a later stage of life as recommended by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and that will help one to achieve the desired success." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7408a2b8 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,171 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 2.2.5", + "devanagari": "चीराणि किं पथि न सन्ति दिशन्ति भिक्षां नैवांघ्रिपाः परभृतः सरितो ऽप्य् अशुष्यन्\nरुद्धा गुहाः किम् अजितो ऽवति नोपसन्नान्कस्माद्भजन्ति कवयो धनदुर्मदान्धान्", + "transliteration": "cīrāṇi kiṁ pathi na santi diśanti bhikṣāṁ\nnaivāṅghripāḥ parabhṛtaḥ sarito 'py aśuṣyan\nruddhā guhāḥ kim ajito 'vati nopasannān\nkasmād bhajanti kavayo dhana-durmadāndhān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "cīrāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "torn clothes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "whether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pathi", + "meanings": [ + "on the road" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "santi", + "meanings": [ + "there is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "diśanti", + "meanings": [ + "give in charity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhikṣām", + "meanings": [ + "alms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅghripāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the trees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parabhṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who maintains others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saritaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the rivers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśuṣyan", + "meanings": [ + "have dried up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ruddhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "closed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "caves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "whether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Almighty Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avati", + "meanings": [ + "give protection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upasannān", + "meanings": [ + "the surrendered soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "what for then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajanti", + "meanings": [ + "flatters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kavayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the learned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhana", + "meanings": [ + "wealth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dur-mada-andhān", + "meanings": [ + "too intoxicated by." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Are there no torn clothes lying on the common road?

According to the dictionary, a parasite is a sycophant who lives at the cost of society without making any contribution to that society. The renounced order is meant for contributing something substantial to the society and not depending on the earnings of the householders. On the contrary, acceptance of alms from the householders by the bona fide mendicant is an opportunity afforded by the saint for tangible benefit of the donor. In the sanātana-dharma institution, almsgiving to the mendicant is part of a householder's duty, and it is advised in the scriptures that the householders should treat the mendicants as their family children and should provide them with food, clothing, etc., without being asked. Pseudo-mendicants, therefore, should not take advantage of the charitable disposition of the faithful householders. The first duty of a person in the renounced order of life is to contribute some literary work for the benefit of the human being in order to give him realized direction toward self-realization. Amongst the other duties in the renounced order of life of Śrīla Sanātana, Śrīla Rūpa and the other Gosvāmīs of Vṛndāvana, the foremost duty discharged by them was to hold learned discourses amongst themselves at Sevakuñja Vṛndāvana (the spot where Śrī Rādhā-Dāmodara Temple was established by Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī and where the actual samādhi tombs of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī and Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī are laid). For the benefit of all in human society, they left behind them immense literatures of transcendental importance. Similarly, all the ācāryas who voluntarily accepted the renounced order of life aimed at benefiting the human society and not at living a comfortable or irresponsible life at the cost of others. However, those who cannot give any contribution should not go to the householders for food, for such mendicants asking bread from the householders are an insult to the highest order. Śukadeva Gosvāmī gave this warning especially for those mendicants who adopt this line of profession to solve their economic problems. Such mendicants are in abundance in the age of Kali. When a man becomes a mendicant willfully or by circumstances, he must be of firm faith and conviction that the Supreme Lord is the maintainer of all living beings everywhere in the universe. Why, then, would He neglect the maintenance of a surrendered soul who is cent percent engaged in the service of the Lord? A common master looks to the necessities of his servant, so how much more would the all-powerful, all-opulent Supreme Lord look after the necessities of life for a fully surrendered soul. The general rule is that a mendicant devotee will accept a simple small loincloth without asking anyone to give it in charity. He simply salvages it from the rejected torn cloth thrown in the street. When he is hungry he may go to a magnanimous tree which drops fruits, and when he is thirsty he may drink water from the flowing river. He does not require to live in a comfortable house, but should find out a cave in the hills and may not be afraid of jungle animals, keeping faith in God, who lives in everyone's heart. The Lord may dictate to tigers and other jungle animals not to disturb His devotee. Haridāsa Ṭhākur, a great devotee of Lord Śrī Caitanya, used to live in such a cave, and by chance a great venomous snake also was a copartner of the cave. Some admirer of Ṭhākur Haridāsa, who had to visit the Ṭhākur every day, feared the snake and gave a suggestion to the Ṭhākur to leave that place. Because his devotees were afraid of the snake and they were regularly visiting the cave, Ṭhākur Haridāsa agreed to the proposal on their account. But as soon as this was settled, the snake actually crawled out of its hole in the cave and left the cave for good before everyone present. By the dictation of the Lord, who lives also within the heart of the snake, the snake gave preference to Haridāsa and decided to leave the place and not disturb him. So this is a tangible example of how the Lord gives protection to a bona fide devotee like Ṭhākur Haridāsa. According to the regulations of the sanātana-dharma institution, one is trained from the beginning to depend fully on the protection of the Lord in all circumstances. The path of renunciation is recommended for acceptance by one who is fully accomplished and fully purified in one's existence. This stage is described also in the Bhagavad-gītā as daivī sampad (Bg. 16.5). A human being is required to accumulate daivī sampad, or spiritual assets; otherwise, the next alternative, āsurī sampad, or material assets, will overcome him disproportionately, and thus one will be forced into the entanglement of different miseries of the material world. A sannyāsī should always live alone without company, and he must be fearless. He should never be afraid of living alone, although he is never alone. The Lord is residing in everyone's heart, and unless one is purified by the prescribed process, one will feel that he is alone. But a man in the renounced order of life must be purified by the process; thus he will feel the presence of the Lord everywhere and will have nothing to fear (such as being without any company). Everyone can become a fearless and honest person if his very existence is purified by discharging the prescribed duty for each and every order of life. One can become fixed in one's prescribed duty by faithful aural reception of Vedic instructions and assimilation of the essence of Vedic knowledge by devotional service of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..59cce27f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,129 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 2.2.6", + "devanagari": "एवं स्वचित्ते स्वत एव सिद्ध आत्मा प्रियो ऽर्थो भगवान् अनन्तः\nतं निर्वृतो नियतार्थो भजेत संसारहेतूपरमश्च यत्र", + "transliteration": "evaṁ svacitte svata eva siddha\nātmā priyo 'rtho bhagavān anantaḥ\ntaṁ nirvṛto niyatārtho bhajeta\nsaṁsāra-hetūparamaś ca yatra", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svacitte", + "meanings": [ + "in one's own heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by His omnipotency" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "siddhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fully represented" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very dear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "substance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anantaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the eternal unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirvṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being detached from the world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niyata", + "meanings": [ + "permanent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme gain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajeta", + "meanings": [ + "one must worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsāra-hetu", + "meanings": [ + "the cause of the conditioned state of existence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uparamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "cessation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "in which." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus being fixed, one must render service unto the Supersoul situated in one's own heart by His omnipotency. Because He is the Almighty Personality of Godhead, eternal and unlimited, He is the ultimate goal of life, and by worshiping Him one can end the cause of the conditioned state of existence.", + "purport": [ + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 18.61), is the all-pervading omnipresent Supersoul. Therefore one who is a yogī can only worship Him because He is the substance and not illusion. Every living creature is engaging in the service of something else. A living being's constitutional position is to render service, but in the atmosphere of māyā, or illusion, or the conditional state of existence, the conditioned soul seeks the service of illusion. A conditioned soul works in the service of his temporary body, bodily relatives like the wife and children, and the necessary paraphernalia for maintaining the body and bodily relations, namely the house, land, wealth, society, country, etc., but he does not know that all such renderings of service are totally illusory. As we have discussed many times before, this material world is itself an illusion, like the mirage in the desert. In the desert there is an illusion of water, and the foolish animals become entrapped by such illusion and run after water in the desert, although there is no water at all. But because there is no water in the desert, one does not conclude that there is no water at all. The intelligent person knows well that there is certainly water, water in the seas and oceans, but such vast reservoirs of water are far, far away from the desert. One should therefore search for water in the vicinity of seas and oceans and not in the desert. Every one of us is searching after real happiness in life, namely eternal life, eternal or unlimited knowledge and unending blissful life. But foolish people who have no knowledge of the substance search after the reality of life in the illusion. This material body does not endure eternally, and everything in relation with this temporary body, namely the wife, children, society, country, etc., also changes along with the change of body. This is called saṁsāra or repetition of birth, death, old age and disease. We would like to find a solution for all these problems of life, but we do not know the way. Herein it is suggested that anyone who wants to make an end of these miseries of life, namely repetition of birth, death, disease, and old age, must take to this process of worshiping the Supreme Lord and not others, as it is also ultimately suggested in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 18.65). If we at all want to end the cause of our conditioned life, we must take to the worship of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is present in everyone's heart by His natural affection for all living beings, who are actually the parts and parcels of the Lord (Bg. 18.65). The baby in the lap of his mother is naturally attached to the mother, and the mother is attached to the child. But when the child grows up and becomes overwhelmed by circumstances, he gradually becomes detached from the mother, but the mother always expects some sort of service from the grown-up child, and she is equally affectionate for her child, even though the child is forgetful. Similarly, because we are all part and parcel of the Lord, the Lord is always affectionate to us, and He always tries to get us back home and back to Godhead. But we, the conditioned souls, do not care for Him and run instead after the illusory bodily connections. We must therefore extricate ourselves from all illusory connections of the world and seek reunion with the Lord, trying to render service unto Him because He is the ultimate truth. Actually we are hankering after Him as the child seeks the mother. And to search out the Supreme Personality of Godhead, we need not go anywhere else, because the Lord is within our hearts. This does not, however, suggest that we should not go to the places of worship, namely the temples, churches and mosques. Such holy places of worship are also occupied by the Lord because the Lord is omnipresent. For the common man these holy places are centers of learning about the science of God. When the temples are devoid of activities, the people in general become disinterested in such places, and consequently the mass of people gradually become godless, and a godless civilization is the result. Such a hellish civilization increases artificially the conditions of life, and existence becomes intolerable for everyone. The foolish leaders of a godless civilization try to devise various plans to bring about peace and prosperity in the godless world under a patent trademark of materialism, and because such attempts are illusory only, the people elect incompetent, blind leaders one after another who are incapable of offering solutions. If we want at all to end this anomaly of a godless civilization, we must follow the principles of revealed scriptures like the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and follow the instruction of a person like Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī who has no attraction for material gain." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5f75227b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,118 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 2.2.7", + "devanagari": "कस्तां त्व् अनादृत्य परानुचिन्ताम् ऋते पशून् असतीं नाम कुर्यात्\nपश्यञ्जनं पतितं वैतरण्यां स्वकर्मजान्परितापाञ्जुषाणम्", + "transliteration": "kas tāṁ tv anādṛtya parānucintām\nṛte paśūn asatīṁ nāma kuryāt\npaśyañ janaṁ patitaṁ vaitaraṇyāṁ\nsva-karma-jān paritāpāñ juṣāṇam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who else" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anādṛtya", + "meanings": [ + "by neglecting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parānucintām", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental thoughts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛte", + "meanings": [ + "without" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśūn", + "meanings": [ + "the materialists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asatīm", + "meanings": [ + "in the nonpermanent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma", + "meanings": [ + "name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuryāt", + "meanings": [ + "will adopt" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśyan", + "meanings": [ + "seeing definitely" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janam", + "meanings": [ + "the general mass of people" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patitam", + "meanings": [ + "fallen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaitaraṇyām", + "meanings": [ + "in Vaitaraṇī, the river of suffering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-karma-jān", + "meanings": [ + "produced from one's own work" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paritāpān", + "meanings": [ + "suffering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "juṣāṇam", + "meanings": [ + "being overtaken by." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Who else but the gross materialists will neglect such transcendental thought and take to the nonpermanent names only, seeing the mass of people fallen in the river of suffering as the consequence of accruing the result of their own work?", + "purport": [ + "In the Vedas it is said that persons who are attached to demigods to the exclusion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are like the animals who follow the herdsman even though they are taken to the slaughterhouse.

It is said that an idle brain is a devil's workshop because a person who cannot think in the right way must think of something which may bring about disaster. The materialists are always worshiping some minor demigods, although this is condemned in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.20). As long as a person is illusioned by material gains, he petitions the respective demigods to draw some particular benefit which is, after all, illusory and nonpermanent. The enlightened transcendentalist is not captivated by such illusory things; therefore he is always absorbed in the transcendental thought of the Supreme in different stages of realization, namely Brahman, Paramātmā and Bhagavān.

But the devotee, due to the Lord's personal service, gets through very easily. Impersonal meditation is therefore a source of suffering for the impersonalist. Here, the devotee has an advantage over the impersonalist philosopher. The impersonalist is doubtful about the personal feature of the Lord, and therefore he always tries to meditate upon something which is not objective. For this reason there is an authentic statement in the Bhāgavatam regarding the positive concentration of the mind on the factual form of the Lord.", + "The process of meditation recommended herein is bhakti-yoga, or the process of devotional service after being liberated from the material conditions. Jñāna-yoga is the process of liberation from the material conditions. After one is liberated from the conditions of material existence, i.e., when one is nivṛtta, as previously stated herein, or when one is freed from all material necessities, one becomes qualified to discharge the process of bhakti-yoga. Therefore bhakti-yoga includes jñāna-yoga, or, in other words, the process of pure devotional service simultaneously serves the purpose of jñāna-yoga; liberation from material conditions is automatically achieved by the gradual development of pure devotional service. These effects of bhakti-yoga are called anartha-nivṛtti. Things which are artificially acquired gradually disappear along with the progress of bhakti-yoga. Meditation on the lotus feet of the Personality of Godhead, the first processional step, must show its effect by anartha-nivṛtti. The grossest type of anartha which binds the conditioned soul in the material existence is sex desire, and this sex desire gradually develops in the union of the male and female. When the male and female become united, the sex desire is further aggravated by the accumulation of buildings, children, friends, relatives, and wealth. When all these are acquired, the conditioned soul becomes overwhelmed with such entanglements, and the false sense of egoism, or the sense of myself and mine, becomes prominent, and the sex desire expands to various political, social, altruistic, philanthropical, and many other unwanted engagements, which are all like the foam of the sea waves which becomes very prominent at one time and the next moment vanishes as quickly as a cloud in the sky. The conditioned soul is encircled by such products, as well as products of sex desire, and therefore bhakti-yoga leads to gradual evaporation of the sex desire, which is summarized in three headings, namely profit, adoration, and distinction. All conditioned souls are mad after these different forms of sex desires, and one shall see himself how much he has been freed from such material hankerings based primarily on the sex desire. As a person feels his hunger satisfied after eating each morsel of foodstuff, he must similarly be able to see the degree to which he has been freed from sex desire. The sex desire is diminished along with its various forms by the process of bhakti-yoga because bhakti-yoga automatically, by the grace of the Lord, effectively results in knowledge and renunciation, even if the devotee is not materially very well educated. Knowledge means to know things as they are, and if by deliberation it is found that there are things which are at all unnecessary, naturally the person who has acquired knowledge leaves aside such unwanted things. When the conditioned soul finds by culture of knowledge that material necessities are unwanted things, he becomes detached from such unwanted things. This stage of knowledge is called vairāgya, or detachment from unwanted things. We have previously discussed that the transcendentalist is required to be self-sufficient and should not beg from the rich blind persons to fulfill the bare necessities of life. Śukadeva Gosvāmī has suggested some alternatives for the bare necessities of life, namely the problem of eating, sleeping and sheltering, but he has not suggested any alternative for sex satisfaction. One who has the sex desire still with him should not at all try to accept the renounced order of life. For one who has not attained to this stage, there is no question of a renounced order of life. So by gradual process of devotional service under the guidance of a proper spiritual master, and following the principles of the Bhāgavatam, one must be able at least to control the gross sex desire before one accepts the renounced order of life factually.", + "So purification means getting free gradually from sex desire, and this is attained by meditation on the person of the Lord as described herein, beginning from the feet. One should not try to go upwards artificially without seeing for himself how much he has been released from the sex desire. The smiling face of the Lord is the Tenth Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and there are many upstarts who at once try to begin with the Tenth Canto and especially with the five chapters which delineate the rāsa-līlā of the Lord. This is certainly improper. By such improper study or hearing of Bhāgavatam, the material opportunists have played havoc by indulgence of sex life in the name of Bhāgavatam. This vilification of Bhāgavatam is rendered by the acts of the so-called devotees; one should be free from all kinds of sex desire before he tries to make a show of recital of Bhāgavatam. Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur clearly defines the import of purification as cessation from sex indulgence. He says \"yathā yathā dhīś ca śudhyati viṣaya-lāmpaṭyaṁ tyajati, tathā tathā dhārayed iti citta-śuddha-tāratamyenaiva dhyāna-tāratamyam.\" And as one gets free from the intoxication of sex indulgence by purification of intelligence, one should step forward for the next meditation, or in other words, the progress of meditation on the different limbs of the transcendental body of the Lord should be enhanced in proportion to the progress of purification of the heart. The conclusion is that those who are still entrapped by sex indulgence should never progress to meditation above the feet of the Lord; therefore recital of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam by them should be restricted within the First and Second Cantos of the great literature. The purificatory process must be completed by assimilating the contents of the first nine cantos. Then one should be admitted into the realm of the Tenth Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..55c32e9a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,114 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 2.2.13", + "devanagari": "एकैकशो ऽंगानि धियानुभावयेत्पादादि यावद्द्हसितं गदाभृतः\nजितं जितं स्थानम् अपोह्य धारयेत्परं परं शुद्ध्यति धीर्यथा यथा", + "transliteration": "ekaikaśo 'ṅgāni dhiyānubhāvayet\npādādi yāvadd hasitaṁ gadā-bhṛtaḥ\njitaṁ jitaṁ sthānam apohya dhārayet\nparaṁ paraṁ śuddhyati dhīr yathā yathā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ekaikaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one to one, or one after another" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅgāni", + "meanings": [ + "limbs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiyā", + "meanings": [ + "by attention" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anubhāvayet", + "meanings": [ + "meditate upon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāda-ādi", + "meanings": [ + "legs, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "yāvat", + "meanings": [ + "until" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hasitam", + "meanings": [ + "smiling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gadā-bhṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jitaṁ jitam", + "meanings": [ + "gradually controlling the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthānam", + "meanings": [ + "place" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apohya", + "meanings": [ + "leaving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhārayet", + "meanings": [ + "meditate upon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraṁ param", + "meanings": [ + "higher and higher" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuddhyati", + "meanings": [ + "purified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as much as." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The process of meditation should begin from the lotus feet of the Lord and progress to His smiling face.

It is better to practice to concentrate our attention by offering flowers and tulasī to the lotus feet of the Lord. In this way, we gradually become purified by the arcanā process. We dress the Lord, bathe Him, etc., and all these transcendental activities help us purify our existence. When we reach the higher standard of purification, if we see the smiling face of the Lord or hear the rāsa dance pastimes of the Lord, then we can relish His activities. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, therefore, the rāsa dance pastimes are delineated in the Tenth Canto (Chapters 29-34).", + "The more one concentrates on the transcendental form of the Lord, either on the lotus feet, the calves, the thighs or the chest, the more one becomes purified.

In other words, the Supreme Lord is the ultimate beneficiary and enjoyer of all worlds, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 5.29). The spiritual world is the manifestation of His internal potency, and the material world is the manifestation of His external potency. The living entities are also His marginal potency and they can, by their own choice, live in either the transcendental or material worlds. The material world is not a fit place for living entities because they are spiritually one with the Lord, and in the material world the living entities become conditioned by the laws of the material world. The Lord wants all living entities, who are His parts and parcels, to live with Him in the transcendental world, and for enlightening conditioned souls in the material world, all the Vedas and the revealed scriptures are there—expressly to recall the conditioned souls back home, back to Godhead. Unfortunately, the conditioned living entities, although suffering continually the threefold miseries of conditioned life, are not very serious about going back to Godhead. It is due to their misguided way of living, complicated by sins and virtues. Some of them who are virtuous by deeds begin to reestablish the lost relation with the Lord, but they are unable to understand the personal feature of the Lord. The real purpose of life is to make contact with the Lord and be engaged in His service. That is the natural position of living entities. But those who are impersonalists and are unable to render any loving service to the Lord have been advised to meditate upon His impersonal feature, the virāṭa or universal form. But some way or other, one must try to reestablish one's forgotten relation with the Lord if one at all desires real happiness in life, to reclaim his natural unfettered condition. For the less intelligent beginners, meditation on the impersonal feature, the virāṭa or universal form of the Lord, will gradually qualify one to rise up to the personal contact. One is advised herewith to meditate upon the virāṭa rūpa specified in the previous chapters in order to understand how the different planets, seas, mountains, rivers, birds, beasts, human beings, demigods and all that we can conceive are but different parts and limbs of the Lord's virāṭa form. This sort of thinking is also a type of meditation on the Absolute Truth, and as soon as such meditation begins, one develops one's godly qualities, and the whole world appears to be a happy and peaceful residence for all the people of the world.

Rather, those who are mixed devotees, alloyed with fruitive action or empirical philosophic speculation, require an opportune moment for quitting this body.

The astronomical influence directed by the different demigods over mundane creatures is also conspicuous by its absence. In the material existence, the living entities are afraid of Satanic influence, but for a devotee on the transcendental plane there is no such fear at all. The living entities change their material bodies in different shapes and forms under the influence of the different modes of material nature, but in the transcendental state the devotee is guṇatīta, or above the material modes of goodness, passion or ignorance, and as such the false ego of \"I am the Lord of all I survey\" does not arise there. In the material world the false ego of the living being trying to lord it over the material nature is something like the moth's falling in the blazing fire. The moth is captivated by the glaring beauty of the fire, and when he comes to enjoy it, the blazing fire consumes him. In the transcendental state the living being is pure in his consciousness, and as such he has no false ego to lord it over the material nature, but his pure consciousness dictates him to surrender unto the Supreme Lord, as stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (7.19): \"vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ.\" All this indicates that on the transcendental state there is neither material creation nor the Causal Ocean for material nature.", + "The above-mentioned state of affairs is factual on the transcendental plane, but is factually revealed in a transcendentalist's knowledge of the advanced state of pure consciousness.

But the impersonalist, because of his neglecting the association of the Lord, does not develop a spiritual body for spiritual activity, but remains a spiritual spark only, merged in the effulgent spiritual rays of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord is the full-fledged form of eternity, bliss and knowledge, but the formless brahmajyoti is simply eternity and knowledge.

In that sky, which is far, far beyond the material sky and its sevenfold coverings, there is no need of the sun or the moon, nor is there necessity of electricity for illumination because the planets are self-illuminating and more brilliant than the material suns. Pure devotees of the Lord are absolutely in harmony with the Personality of Godhead, or in other words, they always think of the Lord as their only dependable friend and well-wisher. They do not care for any mundane creature up to the status of Brahmā, the lord of the universe. They only can definitely have a clear vision of the Vaikuṇṭha planets. Such pure devotees, being perfectly directed by the Supreme Lord, do not create any artificial perplexity in the matter of transcendental understanding by wasting time in discussing what is Brahman or what is not Brahman or māyā, nor do they falsely think of themselves as one with the Lord, or argue that there is no existence of the Lord separately, or that there is no God at all, or that living beings are themselves God, or when God incarnates Himself He assumes a material body. Nor do they concern themselves with many obscure speculative theories, which are in actuality so many stumbling blocks on the path of transcendental understanding. Apart from the class of impersonalists or nondevotees, there are other classes also who pose themselves as devotees of the Lord but at heart maintain the idea of salvation by becoming one with the impersonal Brahman. They manufacture their own way of devotional service wrongly by open debauchery and mislead others who are simpletons or debauchees like themselves. All these nondevotees and debauchees are, according to Viśvanātha Cakravartī, durātmās, or the crooked souls in the dress of mahātmās, or the great souls. Such non-devotees and debauchees are completely excluded from the list of transcendentalists by presentation of this particular verse by Śukadeva Gosvāmī.", + "So the Vaikuṇṭha planets are factually the supreme residential places called the param padam. The impersonal brahmajyoti is also called the param padam due to its being the rays of the Vaikuṇṭha planets, as the sun rays are the rays of the sun. In the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 14.27) it is clearly said that the impersonal brahmajyoti rests on the person of the Lord, and because everything rests on the brahmajyoti directly and indirectly, everything is generated from the Lord, everything rests on Him, and after annihilation, everything is merged in Him only. Therefore, nothing is independent from Him. A pure devotee of the Lord no longer wastes valuable time in discriminating the Brahman from non-Brahman because he knows perfectly well that the Lord Param Brahman, by His Brahman energy, is interwoven in everything, and thus everything is looked upon by a devotee as the property of the Lord. The devotee tries to engage everything in His service and does not create perplexities by falsely lording it over the creation of the Lord. He is so faithful that he engages himself, as well as everything else, in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. In everything, the devotee sees the Lord, and he sees everything in the Lord. The specific disturbance created by a durātmā, or crooked soul, is due to his maintaining that the transcendental form of the Lord is something material." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..598f887d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 2.2.19", + "devanagari": "इत्थं मुनिस्तूपरमेद्व्यवस्थितो विज्ञानदृग्वीर्यसुरन्धिताशयः\nस्वपार्ष्णिनापीड्य गुदं ततो ऽनिलं स्थानेषु षट्सून्नमयेज्जितक्लमः", + "transliteration": "itthaṁ munis tūparamed vyavasthito\nvijñāna-dṛg-vīrya-surandhitāśayaḥ\nsva-pārṣṇināpīḍya gudaṁ tato 'nilaṁ\nsthāneṣu ṣaṭsūnnamayej jita-klamaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ittham", + "meanings": [ + "thus, by Brahman realization" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muniḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the philosopher" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uparamet", + "meanings": [ + "should retire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyavasthitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "well situated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijñāna-dṛk", + "meanings": [ + "by scientific knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vīrya", + "meanings": [ + "strength" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-randhita", + "meanings": [ + "well regulated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "aim of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-pārṣṇinā", + "meanings": [ + "with the heel of one's foot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpīdya", + "meanings": [ + "by blocking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gudam", + "meanings": [ + "air hole" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "thereafter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anilam", + "meanings": [ + "life air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthāneṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in the places" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṭsu", + "meanings": [ + "six primary" + ] + }, + { + "word": "unnamayet", + "meanings": [ + "must be lifted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jita-klamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by extinguishing material desires." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By the strength of scientific knowledge, one should be well situated in absolute realization and thus be able to extinguish all material desires and then give up the material body by blocking the air hole [through which stool is evacuated] with the heel of one's foot and lifting the life air from one place to the other in the six primary places.", + "purport": [ + "There are many durātmās who claim to have realized themselves as Brahman and yet are unable to conquer material desires.

With such mentality, one is led to believe in the strength of material science up to the discovery of atomic energy and space travel by mechanical vehicles, and by such tiny advancements of material science the false egoist tries to challenge even the strength of the Supreme Lord, who can finish all man's tiny endeavors in less than a second. The well-situated self, or Brahman-realized soul, perfectly understands that the Supreme Brahman or the Personality of Godhead is the all-powerful Vāsudeva and that he (the self-realized living being) is a part and parcel of the supreme whole. As such, his constitutional position is to cooperate with Him in all respects in the transcendental relation of the served and the servitor.

Controlling the life air by the prescribed yogic process is mechanical, and the practice is more or less a physical endeavor for spiritual perfection. In olden days such practice was very common for the transcendentalist, for the mode of life and character in those days were favorable. But in modern days, when the influence of Kali Age is so disturbing, practically everyone is untrained in this art of bodily exercise.

The condition is that one should be completely freed from desire for material enjoyment. There are different grades of material enjoyments in respect to duration of life and sensual gratification. The highest plane of sensual enjoyment for the longest period of life is mentioned in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.20). All are but material enjoyments, and one should be thoroughly convinced that he has no need of such long duration of life, even in the Brahmaloka planet. He must return home, back to Godhead, and must not be attracted by any amount of material facilities. In the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 2.59) it is said that this sort of material detachment is possible to attain when one is acquainted with the supreme association of life. Paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate. One cannot be freed from material attraction unless he has complete understanding of the nature of spiritual life. The propaganda by a certain class of impersonalists that spiritual life is void of all varieties is dangerous propaganda to mislead the living beings into becoming more and more attracted by material enjoyments. As such, persons with a poor fund of knowledge cannot have any conception of the param; they try to stick to the varieties of material enjoyments, although they may flatter themselves to be Brahman-realized souls. Such less intelligent persons cannot have any conception of the param, as mentioned in this verse, and therefore they cannot reach the Supreme. The devotees have full knowledge of the spiritual world, the Personality of Godhead and His transcendental association in unlimited spiritual planets called Vaikuṇṭhalokas. Herein akuṇṭha-dṛṣṭiḥ is mentioned. Akuṇṭha and vaikuṇṭha convey the same import, and only one who has his aim fixed upon that spiritual world and personal association with the Godhead can give up this material connection even while living in the material world. This param and the paraṁ dhāma mentioned in several places of the Bhagavad-gītā are one and the same thing. One who goes to the paraṁ dhāma does not return again to this material world. This is not possible even by reaching the topmost loka of the material world.", + "The life air passes through seven openings, namely two eyes, two nostrils, two ears and one mouth. Generally it passes through the mouth at the time of an ordinary man's death. But the yogī, as above mentioned, who controls the life air in his own way, generally releases the life air by puncturing the cerebral hole in the head.

The inhabitants of those planets are empowered with eightfold achievements of mystic perfections. They do not have to learn and practice the mystic processes of yoga perfection and achieve the power of becoming small, particle-like (aṇima-siddhi), or lighter than a soft feather (laghima-siddhi). They do not have to get anything and everything from anywhere and everywhere (prāpti-siddhi), to become heavier than the heaviest (mahima-siddhi), to act freely even to create something wonderful or to annihilate anything at will (īśitā-siddhi), to control over all material elements (vaśitā-siddhi), to possess such power as will never bring about frustration in any desire (prākāmya-siddhi), or to assume any shape or form as one may desire even whimsically (kāmāvasāyitā-siddhi). All these expediencies are as common as natural gifts for the inhabitants of those higher planets. They do not require any mechanical help to travel in outer space, and they can move and travel at will from one planet to any other planet within no time. The inhabitants of the earth cannot move even to the nearest planet except by mechanical vehicles like spacecraft, but the highly talented inhabitants of such higher planets can do everything very easily.", + "Since a materialist is generally inquisitive to experience what is actually in such planetary systems, he wants to see everything personally. As inquisitive persons tour all over the world to gain direct local experience, similarly the less intelligent transcendentalist also desires to have some experience of those planets about which he has heard so many wonderful things. The yogī can, however, easily fulfill his desire by going there with the present materialistic mind and senses. The prime factor of the materialistic mind is to lord it over the material world, and all the siddhis mentioned above are features of domination over the world. The devotees of the Lord are not ambitious to dominate a false and temporary phenomenon. On the other hand, a devotee wants to be dominated by the supreme predominator, the Lord. A desire to serve the Lord, the supreme predominator, is spiritual or transcendental, and one has to attain this purification of the mind and the senses to get an admission into the spiritual kingdom. With the materialistic mind one can reach the best planet in the universe, but no one can enter into the kingdom of God. Senses are called spiritually purified when they are not involved in sense gratification. Senses require engagements, and when the senses are engaged totally in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, they have no chance to become contaminated by material infections." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/23.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/23.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9947056f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/23.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 23, + "reference": "SB 2.2.23", + "devanagari": "योगेश्वराणां गतिम् आहुर् अन्तर्बहिस्त्रिलोक्याः पवनान्तरात्मनाम्\nन कर्मभिस्तां गतिम् आप्नुवन्ति विद्यातपोयोगसमाधिभाजाम्", + "transliteration": "yogeśvarāṇāṁ gatim āhur antar-\nbahis-tri-lokyāḥ pavanāntar-ātmanām\nna karmabhis tāṁ gatim āpnuvanti\nvidyā-tapo-yoga-samādhi-bhājām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yogeśvarāṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of the great saints and devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatim", + "meanings": [ + "destinations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "it is said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antar", + "meanings": [ + "within" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tri-lokyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the three planetary systems" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pavana-antar", + "meanings": [ + "within the air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanām", + "meanings": [ + "of the subtle body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by fruitive activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatim", + "meanings": [ + "speed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpnuvanti", + "meanings": [ + "achieve" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidyā", + "meanings": [ + "devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "austerities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga", + "meanings": [ + "mystic power" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samādhi", + "meanings": [ + "knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhājām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who entertain." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The transcendentalists are concerned with the spiritual body.

In other words, the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives us many clues about other planets far, far away from us which modern planes and spacecraft cannot reach, even by imaginary speeds. The statements of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are accepted by great ācāryas like Śrīdhara Svāmī, Rāmānujācārya, Vallabhācārya, etc. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu specifically accepts Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam as the spotless Vedic authority, and as such no sane man can ignore the statements of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam when it is spoken by the self-realized soul Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who follows the footsteps of his great father Śrīla Vyāsadeva, the compiler of all Vedic literatures. In the creation of the Lord there are many wonderful things which we can see with our own eyes every day and night, but we are unable to reach them equipped by modern materialistic science. We should not, therefore, depend on the fragmentary authority of materialistic science for knowing things beyond the range of scientific purview. For a common man, both modern science and Vedic wisdom are simply to be accepted only because none of the statements, either of modern science or of Vedic literature, can be verified by him. The alternative for a common man is to believe either of them or both of them. The Vedic way of understanding is, however, more authentic because it has been accepted by the ācāryas who are not only faithful and learned men. but are also liberated souls without any of the flaws of conditioned souls. The modern scientists are, however, conditioned souls liable to so many errors and mistakes: therefore the safe side is to accept the authentic version of Vedic literatures, like Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, which is accepted unanimously by the great ācāryas." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/27.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/27.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d059565b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/27.json @@ -0,0 +1,160 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 27, + "reference": "SB 2.2.27", + "devanagari": "न यत्र शोको न जरा न मृत्युर्नार्तिर्न चोद्वेग ऋते कुतश्चित्\nयच्चित्ततो ऽदः कृपयानिदंविदां दुरन्तदुःखप्रभवानुदर्शनात्", + "transliteration": "na yatra śoko na jarā na mṛtyur\nnārtir na codvega ṛte kutaścit\nyac cit tato 'daḥ kṛpayānidaṁ-vidāṁ\nduranta-duḥkha-prabhavānudarśanāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "there are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "bereavement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jarā", + "meanings": [ + "old age" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛtyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārtiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvegaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "anxieties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛte", + "meanings": [ + "save and except" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kutaścit", + "meanings": [ + "sometimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "because of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cit", + "meanings": [ + "consciousness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "compassion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛpayā", + "meanings": [ + "out of heartfelt sympathy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anidaṁ vidām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who are ignorant of the process of devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duranta", + "meanings": [ + "unsurpassable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duḥkha", + "meanings": [ + "misery" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhava", + "meanings": [ + "aggrandizement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anudarśanāt", + "meanings": [ + "by successive experience." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In that planet of Satyaloka, there is neither bereavement, nor old age nor death.

But in due course of time the authorized succession was broken, and therefore, just to reestablish the true spirit of the knowledge, the Lord again explained the same to Arjuna because he was a bona fide candidate for understanding due to his becoming a pure devotee of the Lord. Bhagavad-gītā, as it was understood by Arjuna, is also explained (Bg. 10.12-13), but there are many foolish men who do not follow the footsteps of Arjuna in understanding the spirit of Bhagavad-gītā.

Five thousand years ago, when the social status of human society was in perfect Vedic order, the yoga process mentioned herein was a common affair for everyone because everyone, specifically the brāhmaṇas and kṣatriyas, was trained in the transcendental art in the custody of the spiritual master far away from home, in the status of brahmacarya. Modern man, therefore, is incompetent to understand it perfectly.", + "Lord Śrī Caitanya, therefore, made it easier for the prospective devotee of the present age in the following specific manner. Ultimately there is no difference in the result. The first and foremost point is that one must understand the prime importance of bhakti-yoga. The living beings in different species of life are undergoing different terms of encagement according to their fruitive actions and reactions. But in the execution of different activities, one who secures some resources of bhakti-yoga can understand the importance of service to the Lord through the causeless mercy of the Lord, as well as of the spiritual master. A sincere soul is helped by the Lord by meeting a bona fide spiritual master, the representative of the Lord. By the instruction of such a spiritual master, one gets the seed of bhakti-yoga. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu recommends the devotee to sow the seed of bhakti-yoga in his heart and nurture it by the watering of hearing and chanting the holy name, fame, etc., of the Lord. The simple process of offenseless chanting and hearing the holy name of the Lord will gradually promote one very soon to the stage of emancipation. There are three stages of chanting the holy name of the Lord. The first stage is the offensive chanting of the holy name, and the second is the reflective stage of chanting the holy name. The third stage is the offenseless chanting of the holy name of the Lord. In the second stage only, the stage of reflection via media between the offensive and offenseless stages, the stage of emancipation is automatically attained. And in the offenseless stage, one actually enters into the kingdom of God, although physically he may be apparently within the material world. To attain the offenseless stage, one must be on guard in the following manner.", + "When we speak of hearing and chanting, it means one should not only chant and hear of the holy name of the Lord as Rāma, Kṛṣṇa, (or systematically the sixteen names of Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare), but one should also read and hear the Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in the association of devotees. The primary practice of bhakti-yoga will cause the seed already sowed in heart to sprout, and by a regular watering process, as mentioned above, the bhakti-yoga creeper will begin to grow. By systematic nurturing, the creeper will grow to such an extent that it will penetrate the coverings of the universe, as we have heard in the previous verses, reach the effulgent sky, the brahmajyoti, and go farther and farther and reach the spiritual sky where there are innumerable spiritual planets called Vaikuṇṭhalokas. Above all of them there is Kṛṣṇaloka or Goloka Vṛndāvana, wherein the growing creeper enters and takes repose at the lotus feet of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the original Personality of Godhead. When one reaches the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa at Goloka Vṛndāvana, the watering process of hearing and reading, as also chanting of the holy name in the pure devotional stage, fructifies, and the fruits grown there in the form of love of God are tangibly tasted by the devotee, even though he is here in this material world. The ripen fruits of love of God are relished only by the devotees constantly engaged in the watering process as described above.

The conditioned souls in the material world, after gaining emancipation by devotional service, get promoted in these planets.

They cannot stay in the ocean indefinitely, for their urge for sense gratification brings them back to the rivers and streams to spawn. Similarly, when the materialist becomes frustrated in his attempts to enjoy himself in the limited material world, he may seek impersonal liberation by merging either with the Causal Ocean or with the impersonal brahmajyoti effulgence. However, as neither the Causal Ocean nor the impersonal brahmajyoti effulgence afford any superior substitute for association and engagement of the senses, the impersonalist will fall again into the limited material world to become entangled once more in the wheel of births and deaths, drawn on by the inextinguishable desire for sense engagement.

The disciplic succession holds that the Vedas were uttered by Lord Kṛṣṇa to Brahmā, from Brahmā to Nārada, and from Nārada to Vyāsadeva, and then from Vyāsadeva to Śukadeva Gosvāmī and so on. So there is no difference between the version of all the authorities. Nor do they differ from one another. The truth is eternal, and as such there cannot be any new opinion about the truth. That is the way of knowing the knowledge contained in the Vedas. It is not a thing to be understood by one's erudite scholarship or by the fashionable interpretations of mundane scholars. There is nothing to be added and nothing to be subtracted, because the truth is the truth. One has to accept, after all, some authority. The modern scientists are also authorities for the common man for some scientific truths. The common man follows the version of the scientist. This means that the common man follows the authority. The Vedic knowledge is also received in that way. The common man cannot argue what is beyond the sky or beyond the universe, but he must accept the versions of the Vedas as they are understood by the authorized disciplic succession.

And this fact is perceived and hypothesized in our acts of seeing and taking help of the intelligence.", + "purport": [ + "The general argument of the common man is that since the Lord is not visible to our eyes, how can one either surrender unto Him or render transcendental loving service unto Him? To such a common man, here is a practical suggestion given by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī as to how one can perceive the Supreme Lord by reason and perception. Actually the Lord is not perceivable by our present materialized senses, but when one is convinced of the presence of the Lord by practical service attitude, there is a revelation by the Lord's mercy, and such a pure devotee of the Lord can perceive the Lord's presence always and everywhere. He can, however, perceive that intelligence is the form-direction of the Paramātmā plenary portion of the Personality of Godhead. Presence of Paramātmā in everyone's company is not very difficult to realize, even for the common man. The procedure is as follows. One can perceive one's self-identification and feel positively that he exists. He may not feel it very abruptly, but by using a little intelligence, he can feel that he is not the body. He can feel that the hand, the leg, the head, the hair, and the limbs are all his bodily parts and parcels, but as such the hand, the leg, the head, etc., cannot be identified with his self. Therefore just by using intelligence he can distinguish and separate his self from other things that he sees. So the natural conclusion is that the living being, either man or beast, is the seer, and he sees besides himself all other things. So there is a difference between the seer and the seen. Now, by a little use of intelligence we can also readily agree that the living being who sees the things beyond himself, by ordinary vision, has no power to see or to move independently. All our ordinary actions and perceptions depend on various forms of energy supplied to us by nature in various combinations. Our senses of perception and of action, that is to say, our five perceptive senses of 1) hearing, 2) touch, 3) sight, 4) taste, and 5) smell, as well as our five senses of action, namely 1) hands, 2) legs, 3) speech, 4) evacuation organs and 5) reproductive organs, and also our three subtle senses, namely 1) mind, 2) intelligence, and 3) ego, (thirteen senses in all), are supplied to us by various arrangements of gross or subtle forms of natural energy. And it is equally evident that our objects of perception are nothing but the products of the inexhaustible permutations and combinations of the forms taken by natural energy. As this conclusively proves that the ordinary living being has no independent power of perception or of motion, and as we undoubtedly feel our existence being conditioned by nature's energy, we conclude that he who sees is spirit, and the senses as well as the objects of perception are material. The spiritual quality of the seer is manifest in our dissatisfaction with the limited state of materially conditioned existence. That is the difference between spirit and matter. There are some less intelligent arguments that matter develops the power of seeing and moving as a certain organic development, but such an argument cannot be accepted because there is no experimental evidence that matter has produced anywhere a living entity. Trust no future, however pleasant. Idle talks regarding future development of matter into spirit are actually foolish because no matter has ever developed the power of seeing or moving in any part of the world. Therefore it is definite that matter and spirit are two different identities, and this conclusion is arrived at by the use of intelligence. Now we come to the point that the things which are seen by a little use of intelligence cannot be automatic unless we accept someone as the user of or director of the intelligence. Intelligence gives one direction like some higher authority, and the living being cannot see or move or eat or do anything without the use of intelligence. When one fails to take advantage of intelligence he becomes a deranged man, so a living being is dependent on intelligence or the direction of a superior being. Such intelligence is all-pervading. Every living being has his intelligence, and this intelligence, being the direction of some higher authority, is just like the father's giving direction to his son. The higher authority, who is present and residing within every individual living being, is the Superself.", + "At this point in our investigation, we may consider the following question: on the one hand we realize that all our perceptions and activities are conditioned by arrangements of material nature, yet we also ordinarily feel and say, \"I am perceiving\" or \"I am doing.\" Therefore we can say that our material senses of perception and action are moving because we are identifying the self with the material body, and that the superior principle of Superself is guiding and supplying us according to our desire. By taking advantage of the guidance of Superself in the form of intelligence, we can either continue to study and to put into practice our conclusion that \"I am not this body,\" or we can choose to remain in the false material identification, fancying ourselves to be the possessors and doers. Our freedom consists in orienting our desire either toward the ignorant material misconception or the true spiritual conception. We can easily attain to the true spiritual conception by recognizing the Superself (Paramātmā) to be our friend and guide and by dovetailing our intelligence with the superior intelligence of Paramātmā. The Superself and the individual self are both spirit, and therefore the Superself and the individual self are both qualitatively one and distinguished from matter. But the Superself and the individual self cannot be on an equal level because the Superself gives direction or supplies intelligence and the individual self follows the direction, and thus actions are performed properly. The individual is completely dependent on the direction of the Superself because in every step the individual self follows the direction of the Superself in the matter of seeing, hearing, thinking, feeling, willing, etc.", + "So far as common sense is concerned, we come to the conclusion that there are three identities, namely matter, spirit and Superspirit. Now if we go to the Bhagavad-gītā, or the Vedic intelligence, we can further understand that all the three identities, namely matter, individual spirit, and the Superspirit, are all dependent on the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Superself is a partial representation or plenary portion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Bhagavad-gītā affirms that the Supreme Personality of Godhead dominates all over the material world by His partial representation only. God is great, and He cannot be simply an order supplier of the individual selves; therefore the Superself cannot be a full representation of the Supreme Self, Puruṣottama, the Absolute Personality of Godhead. Realization of the Superself by the individual self is the beginning of self-realization, and by the progress of such self-realization one is able to realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead by intelligence, by the help of authorized scriptures, and principally, by the grace of the Lord. The Bhagavad-gītā is the preliminary conception of the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the further explanation of the science of Godhead. So if we stick to our determination and pray for the mercy of the director of intelligence sitting within the same bodily tree, like two birds (as explained in the Upaniṣads), certainly the purport of the revealed informations in the Vedas becomes clear to our vision and there is no difficulty in realizing the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva. The intelligent man therefore, after many births of such use of intelligence, surrenders himself at the lotus feet of Vāsudeva, as confirmed by the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.19)." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/36.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/36.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..0d30e169 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/02/verses/36.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 36, + "reference": "SB 2.2.36", + "devanagari": "तस्मात्सर्वात्मना राजन्हरिः सर्वत्र सर्वदा\nश्रोतव्यः कीर्तितव्यश्च स्मर्तव्यो भगवान्नृणाम्", + "transliteration": "tasmāt sarvātmanā rājan\nhariḥ sarvatra sarvadā\nśrotavyaḥ kīrtitavyaś ca\nsmartavyo bhagavān nṛṇām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanā", + "meanings": [ + "soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājan", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hariḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvatra", + "meanings": [ + "everywhere" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvadā", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrotavyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "must be heard" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kīrtitavyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "glorified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smartavyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "be remembered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛṇām", + "meanings": [ + "by the human being." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O King, it is therefore essential that every human being hear, glorify and remember the Supreme Lord Personality of Godhead always and everywhere.", + "purport": [ + "Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī begins this verse with the word tasmāt, or \"therefore,\" because in the previous verse he has already explained that there is no auspicious means for salvation other than the sublime process of bhakti-yoga. The bhakti-yoga process is practiced by the devotees in different methods like hearing, chanting, remembering, serving the lotus feet of the Lord, worshiping, praying, rendering service of love, becoming friendly, and offering all that one may possess. All nine methods are bona fide methods, and either all of them, some of them or even one of them can bring about the desired result for the sincere devotee. But out of all the nine different methods, the first one, namely hearing, is the most important function in the process of bhakti-yoga. Without hearing sufficiently and properly, no one can make any progress by any of the practicing methods. And for hearing only, all the Vedic literatures are there, compiled by authorized persons like Vyāsadeva, who is the powerful incarnation of Godhead. And as it is ascertained that the Lord is the Supersoul of everything, He should therefore be heard and glorified everywhere and always. That is the special duty of the human being. And the human being, when he gives up the process of hearing about the all-pervading Personality of Godhead, becomes victim to hearing rubbish transmitted by man-made machines. Machinery is not bad because through the machine one can take advantage of hearing about the Lord, but because machinery is used for ulterior purposes, it is creating rapid degradation in the standard of human civilization. It is said here that it is incumbent upon the human beings to hear because the scriptures like Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, etc., are made for that purpose. Living beings other than human beings have no capacity to hear such Vedic literatures. If the human society gives itself to the process of hearing the Vedic literature, it will not become victim to the impious sounds vibrated by impious men who degrade the standards of the total society. Hearing is solidified by the process of chanting. One who has perfectly heard from the perfect source becomes convinced about the all-pervading Personality of Godhead and thus becomes enthusiastic in the matter of glorifying the Lord. All the great ācāryas, like Rāmānuja, Madhva, Caitanya, Sarasvatī Ṭhākur or even, in other countries, Mohammed, Christ and others, have all extensively glorified the Lord by chanting always and in every place. Because the Lord is all-pervading, it is essential to glorify Him always and everywhere. In the process of glorifying the Lord there should be no restriction of time and space. This is called sanātana-dharma or bhāgavata-dharma. Sanātana means eternal, always and everywhere. Bhāgavata means pertaining to Bhagavān, the Lord. The Lord is the master of all time and all space, and therefore the Lord's holy name must be heard, glorified and remembered everywhere in the world, and that will bring about the desired peace and prosperity so eagerly awaited by the people of the world.

The more the human society is engaged in the exploitation of undeveloped material resources for sense gratification, the more it will be entrapped by the illusory material energy of the Lord, and thus the distress of the world will be intensified instead of diminished. The human necessities of life are fully supplied by the Lord in the shape of foodgrains, milk, fruit, wood, stone, sugar, silk, jewels, cotton, salt, water, vegetables, etc., in sufficient quantity to feed the human race of the world as well as those on each and every planet within the universe. The supply source is complete, and only a little energy by the human being is required to get them into the proper channel. There is no need of machines and tools or huge steel plants for artificially creating comforts of life. Life is never made comfortable by creating artificial needs, but by plain living and high thinking. The highest perfectional thinking for human society is suggested here by Śukadeva Gosvāmī, namely, hearing sufficiently Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. For men in this age of Kali, when they have lost the perfect vision of life, this Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the torchlight by which to see the real path. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī Prabhupada has commented on the kathāmṛtam mentioned in this verse and has indicated Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam to be the nectarean message of the Personality of Godhead. By sufficiently hearing the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the polluted aim of life, namely lording it over matter, will subside, and the people in general in all parts of the world will be able to live a peaceful life of knowledge and bliss.", + "For a pure devotee of the Lord, any topics in relation with His name, fame, quality, entourage, etc., are all pleasing, and because such topics have been approved by great devotees like Nārada, Hanumān, Nanda Mahārāja and other inhabitants of Vṛndāvana, certainly such messages are transcendental and pleasing to the heart and soul.", + "And by the constant hearing of the messages of the Bhagavad-gītā, and later of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, one is assured herein by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī that he will reach the Personality of Godhead and render Him transcendental loving service in the spiritual planet of the name Goloka Vṛndāvana, which resembles a huge lotus flower.", + "Thus by the process of bhakti-yoga, directly accepted as suggested in this verse by hearing sufficiently the transcendental message of the Lord, the material contamination is directly eliminated without one's attempting to contemplate the impersonal virāṭa conception of the Lord.

Almost all of them have a wrong conception of life, for they identify themselves with the gross and subtle material bodies, which they are not, in fact. They may be situated in different high and low positions in the estimation of human society, but one should know definitely that unless one inquires about his own self beyond the body and the mind, all his activities in human life are total failures. Therefore out of thousands and thousands of men, one may inquire about his spirit self and thus consult the revealed scriptures like Vedānta-sūtras, Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. But in spite of reading and hearing such scriptures, unless one is in touch with a realized spiritual master, he cannot actually realize the real nature of self, etc. And out of thousands and hundreds of thousands of men, someone may know what Lord Kṛṣṇa is in fact. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta (Madhya 20/122-123) it is said that Lord Kṛṣṇa, out of His causeless mercy, prepared the Vedic literatures in the incarnation of Vyāsadeva for reading by the intelligent class of men in a human society which is almost totally forgetful of the genuine relation with Kṛṣṇa. Even such an intelligent class of men may be forgetful in their relation with the Lord. The whole bhakti-yoga process is therefore a revival of the lost relation. This revival is possible in the human form of life, which is obtained only out of the evolutionary cycle of 8,400,000 species of life. The intelligent class of human being must take a serious note of this opportunity. All human beings are not intelligent, so the importance of human life is not always understood. Therefore manīṣiṇām, meaning thoughtful, is particularly used here. Such a manīṣiṇām person, like Mahārāja Parīkṣit, must therefore take to the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa and fully engage himself in devotional service, hearing, chanting, etc., of the holy name and pastimes of the Lord which are all hari-kathāmṛta.

The conditioned soul living within the purview of the material world cannot be an expert in every type of materially enjoyable asset, but one can have considerable influence over a particular matter by worshiping a particular demigod, as mentioned above. Rāvaṇa was made a very powerful man by worshiping Lord Śiva, and he used to offer severed heads to please Lord Śiva. He became so powerful by the grace of Lord Śiva that all the demigods were afraid of him, until he at last challenged the Personality of Godhead Śrī Rāmacandra and thus ruined himself. In other words, all such persons who aspire after gaining some or all of the material objects of enjoyment, or the gross materialistic persons, are on the whole less intelligent, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.20). It is said there that those who are bereft of all good sense, or those whose intelligence is withdrawn by the deluding energy of māyā, aspire after all sorts of material enjoyment in life by pleasing the respective demigods, or by advancing the material civilization under the heading of scientific progress. The real problem of life in the material world is to solve the question of birth, death, old age and disease. No one wants to change his birthright, no one wants to meet death, no one wants to be old or invalid, and no one wants diseases. But these problems are solved neither by the grace of any demigod nor by the so-called advancement of material science. In the Bhagavad-gītā, as well as in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, such less intelligent persons have been described as devoid of all good sense. Śukadeva Gosvāmī said that out of the 8,400,000 species of living entities, the human form of life is rare and valuable, and out of those rare human beings those who are conscious of the material problems are rarer still, and the still more rare persons are those who are conscious of the value of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam because it contains the messages of the Lord and His pure devotees. Death is inevitable for everyone, intelligent and foolish. But Parīkṣit Mahārāja has been addressed by the Gosvāmī as the manīṣī, or the man of highly developed mind, because at the time of death he left all material enjoyment and completely surrendered unto the lotus feet of the Lord by hearing His messages from the right person, like Śukadeva Gosvāmī. But aspiration for material enjoyment by endeavoring persons is condemned. Such aspirations are something like the intoxication of the degraded human society. Intelligent persons should try to avoid it and seek instead the permanent life by returning home, back to Godhead." + ], + "verse_end": 7 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/08.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/08.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..06711c5e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/08.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 8, + "reference": "SB 2.3.8", + "devanagari": "धर्मार्थ उत्तमश्लोकं तन्तुः तन्वन्पिते᳙न्यजेत्\nरक्षाकामः पुण्यजनान् ओजस्कामो मरुद्गणान्", + "transliteration": "dharmārtha uttama-ślokaṁ\ntantuḥ tanvan pitèn yajet\nrakṣā-kāmaḥ puṇya-janān\nojas-kāmo marud-gaṇān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dharma-arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "for spiritual advancement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttama-ślokam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord or persons attached to the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tantuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "for offspring" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tanvan", + "meanings": [ + "and for their protection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitèn", + "meanings": [ + "the residents of the Pitṛloka" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajet", + "meanings": [ + "must worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rakṣā-kāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who desires protection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṇya-janān", + "meanings": [ + "pious persons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ojas-kāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who desires strength should worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "marud-gaṇān", + "meanings": [ + "the demigods." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One should worship Lord Viṣṇu or His devotee for spiritual advancement of knowledge, and for protection of heredity and advancement of the dynasty one should worship the different demigods.", + "purport": [ + "The path of religion entails making progress on the path of spiritual advancement, ultimately reviving the eternal relation with Lord Viṣṇu in His impersonal effulgence, localized Paramātmā feature, and ultimately in His personal feature by spiritual advancement of knowledge.

The Lord has proclaimed that the materialists, who desire material enjoyment and thus seek the favor of different demigods, as above mentioned, are not in control of their senses and so give themselves to nonsense. One should therefore not desire any sort of material enjoyment, being sensible enough to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

No one can reach Bombay from Delhi by purchasing a ticket for Baroda. It is clearly defined herein that persons impregnated with different desires have different modes of worship, but one who has no desire for material enjoyment should worship the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the Personality of Godhead. And this worshiping process is called devotional service. Pure devotional service means service of the Lord without any tinge of material desires, including desire for fruitive activity and empiric speculation. For fulfillment of material desires one may worship the Supreme Lord, but the result of such worship is different, as it will be explained in the next verse.

It is He only who can award liberation to the impersonalists by absorbing such aspirants in the brahmajyoti, the bodily rays of the Lord. The brahmajyoti is not separate from the Lord, as the glowing sun ray is not independent of the sun disc. Therefore one who desires to merge into the supreme impersonal brahmajyoti must also worship the Lord by bhakti-yoga, as it is recommended here in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Bhakti-yoga is especially stressed here as the means of all perfection. In the previous chapters it has been stated that bhakti-yoga is the ultimate goal of both karma-yoga and jñāna-yoga, and in the same way in this chapter it is emphatically declared that bhakti-yoga is the ultimate goal of the different varieties of worship of the different demigods. Bhakti-yoga, thus being the supreme means of self-realization, is recommended here. Everyone must therefore seriously take up the methods of bhakti-yoga, even though one aspires for material enjoyment or liberation from material bondage.", + "Akāmaḥ is one who has no material desire. A living being, naturally being the part and parcel of the supreme whole puruṣam pūrṇam, has as his natural function to serve the Supreme Being, just as the parts and parcels of the body, or the limbs of the body, are naturally meant to serve the complete body. Desireless means, therefore, not to be inert like the stone but to be conscious of one's actual position and thus desire satisfaction only from the Supreme Lord. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has explained this desirelessness as bhajanīya-parama-puruṣa-sukha-mātra-svasukhatvam in his Sandharbha. This means that one should only feel happy by experiencing the happiness of the Supreme Lord. This intuition of the living being is sometimes manifested even during the conditioned stage of a living being in the material world, and such intuition is expressed in the manner of altruism, philanthropism, socialism, communism, etc., by the undeveloped minds of less intelligent persons. In the mundane field such an outlook of doing good to others in the form of society, community, family, country or humanity is a partial manifestation of the same original feeling in which a pure living entity feels happiness by the happiness of the Supreme Lord. Such superb feelings were exhibited by the damsels of Vrajabhūmi for the happiness of the Lord. The gopīs loved the Lord without any return, and this is the perfect exhibition of the akāmaḥ spirit. Kāma spirit, or the desire for one's own satisfaction, is fully exhibited in the material world, whereas the spirit of akāmaḥ is fully exhibited in the spiritual world.", + "Thoughts of becoming one with the Lord, or being merged in the brahmajyoti, can also be exhibitions of kāma spirit if they are desires for one's own satisfaction to be free from the material miseries. A pure devotee does not want liberation so that he may be relieved from the miseries of life. Even without so-called liberation, a pure devotee is aspirant for the satisfaction of the Lord. Influenced by the kāma spirit, Arjuna declined to fight in the Kurukṣetra battlefield because he wanted to save his relatives for his own satisfaction. But being a pure devotee, he agreed to fight on the instruction of the Lord because he came to his senses that satisfaction of the Lord at the cost of his own satisfaction was his prime duty. Thus he became akāmaḥ. That is the perfect stage of a perfect living being.", + "Udāra-dhīḥ means one who has broader outlook. People with desires for material enjoyment worship small demigods, and such intelligence is condemned in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.20) as hṛta-jñāna, the intelligence of one who has lost his senses. No one can obtain any result from demigods without getting sanction from the Supreme Lord. Therefore a person with a broader outlook can see that the ultimate authority is the Lord, even for material benefits. Under the circumstances, one with a broader outlook, even with the desire for material enjoyment or for liberation, should take to the worship of the Lord directly. And everyone, either an akāmaḥ or a sakāma or mokṣa-kāma, should worship the Lord with great expedience. This implies that bhakti-yoga may be perfectly administered without any mixture of karma and jñāna. As the unmixed sun ray is very forceful and is therefore called tīvra, similarly unmixed bhakti-yoga of hearing, chanting, etc., may be performed by one and all regardless of inner motive." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ccd7abcb --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,92 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 2.3.11", + "devanagari": "एतावान् एव यजताम् इह निःश्रेयसोदयः\nभगवत्य् अचलो भावो यद्भागवतसंगतः", + "transliteration": "etāvān eva yajatām\niha niḥśreyasodayaḥ\nbhagavaty acalo bhāvo\nyad bhāgavata-saṅgataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "etāvān", + "meanings": [ + "all these different kinds of worshipers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajatām", + "meanings": [ + "while worshiping" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niḥśreyasa", + "meanings": [ + "highest benediction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "development" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavati", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acalaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unflinching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "spontaneous attraction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavata", + "meanings": [ + "pure devotee of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅgataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "association." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "All the different kinds of worshipers of multi-demigods can attain the highest perfectional benediction, which is spontaneous attraction unflinchingly fixed upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead, only by the association of the pure devotee of the Lord.", + "purport": [ + "All living entities within the material creation, beginning from the first demigod Brahmā down to the small ant in different statuses of life, are conditioned under the law of material nature or the external energy of the Supreme Lord.

All plans of material enjoyment, either by worship of different demigods as described in the previous verses of this chapter or by modernized advancement of scientific knowledge without the help of God or demigod, are illusory only because, despite all such plans for happiness, the conditioned living being within the compass of material creation can never solve the problems of life, namely birth, death, old age and disease.

Such problems can never be solved by satisfying the different demigods, by different modes of worship, or by so-called scientific advancement of knowledge without the help of God or the demigods. Apart from the gross materialists, who care very little either for God or for the demigods, the Vedas recommend worship of different demigods for different benefits, so they are neither false nor imaginary. The demigods are as factual as we are, but they are much more powerful due to their being engaged in the direct service of the Lord by managing different departments in the universal government. The Bhagavad-gītā affirms this, and the different planets of the demigods are mentioned there, including the one of the supreme demigod Lord Brahmā. The gross materialists believe neither in the existence of God nor the demigods. Nor do they believe that different planets are dominated by different demigods. They are creating a great commotion about reaching the closest celestial body, the Candraloka or the moon, but even after much mechanical research, they have only very scanty information of this moon, and in spite of much false advertisement for selling land on the moon, the puffed up scientists or gross materialists cannot live there, and what to speak of reaching other innumerable planets which they are unable even to count. However, the followers of the Vedas have a different method of acquiring knowledge. They accept the statements of the Vedic literatures as authority in toto, as we have already discussed in Canto One, and therefore they have full and reasonable knowledge of God and demigods and of their different residential planets situated within the compass of the material world and beyond the limit of the material sky. The most authentic Vedic literature accepted by the great Indian ācāryas like Śaṅkara, Rāmānuja, Madhva, Viṣṇusvāmī, Nimbārka, Caitanya, etc., and studied by all important personalities of the world, is the Bhagavad-gītā, in which the worship of the demigods and their respective residential planets are mentioned. The Bhagavad-gītā affirms:", + "yānti deva-vratā devān pitèn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ
bhūtāni yānti bhūtejyā yānti mad-yājino 'pi mām", + "\"The worshipers of demigods reach the respective planets of the demigods, and the worshipers of forefathers reach the planets of the forefathers. The gross materialist remains in the different material planets, but the devotees of the Lord reach the kingdom of God.\" (Bg. 9.25)", + "We also have information from the Bhagavad-gītā that all the planets within the material world, including the Brahmaloka, are but temporarily situated, and after a fixed period they are all annihilated. Therefore the demigods and their followers are all annihilated at the period of devastation, but one who reaches the kingdom of God gets a permanent share in eternal life. That is the verdict of Vedic literature. The worshipers of the demigods have one facility more than the unbelievers due to their conviction of the Vedic version, by which they can get information of the benefit of worshiping the Supreme Lord in the association of the devotees of the Lord. The gross materialist, however, without any faith in the Vedic version, remains eternally in darkness, driven by a false conviction on the basis of imperfect experimental knowledge, or the so-called material science, which can never reach into the realm of transcendental knowledge.", + "Therefore unless they come in contact with a transcendentalist like the pure devotee of the Lord, the attempts of the gross materialists or the worshipers of the temporary demigods are simply a waste of energy. Only by the grace of the divine personalities, the pure devotees of the Lord, can one achieve pure devotion, which is the highest perfection of human life. Only a pure devotee of the Lord can show one the right way of progressive life. Otherwise both the materialistic way of life, without any information of God or the demigods, and the life engaged in the worship of demigods in pursuit of temporary material enjoyments, are all different phases of phantasmagoria.

The complete functional activities of a pure devotee are always engaged in the service of the Lord, and thus they exchange feelings of ecstasy between themselves and relish transcendental bliss. This transcendental bliss is experienced even in the stage of devotional practice (sādhana-avasthā), if properly undertaken under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master. And in the mature stage the developed transcendental feeling culminates in realization of the particular relationship with the Lord by which a living entity is originally constituted (up to the relationship of conjugal love with the Lord, estimated as highest transcendental bliss). Thus bhakti-yoga, being the only means of God realization is called kaivalya. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī quotes the Vedic version (eko nārāyaṇo devaḥ, parāvarāṇāṁ parama āste kaivalya-sangītaḥ) in this connection and establishes that Nārāyaṇa, the Personality of Godhead, is known as kaivalya, and the means which enables one to approach the Lord is called the kaivalya-panthā, or the only means of attainment of Godhead. This kaivalya-panthā begins from śravaṇa, or hearing those topics that relate to the Personality of Godhead, and the natural consequence of hearing such hari-kathā is attainment of transcendental knowledge, which causes a detachment from all mundane topics, for which a devotee has no taste at all. For a devotee, all mundane activities, social and political, become unattractive, and in the mature state such a devotee becomes disinterested even in his own body, and what to speak of bodily relatives. In such a state of affairs one is not agitated by the waves of the material modes. There are different modes of material nature, and all mundane functions in which a common man is very much interested or takes part become unattractive for the devotee.

For example, the epics or the histories of Rāmāyaṇa and Mahābhārata, which are specifically recommended for the less intelligent classes of men (women, śūdras and unworthy sons of the higher castes), are also accepted as Vedic literature because they are compiled in connection with the activities of the Lord. Mahābhārata is accepted as the fifth division of the Vedas after its first four divisions, namely Sāma, Yajus, Ṛk and Atharva. The less intelligent class of men do not accept Mahābhārata as part of the Vedas, but great sages and authorities accept it as the fifth division of the Vedas. Bhagavad-gītā is also part of the Mahābhārata, and it is full of the Lord's instruction for the less intelligent class of men. Some less intelligent men say that Bhagavad-gītā is not meant for the householders, but such foolish men forget that Bhagavad-gītā was explained to a gṛhastha like Arjuna and spoken by the Lord in His role as a gṛhastha (family man). So Bhagavad-gītā, although containing the high philosophy of the Vedic wisdom, is for the beginners in the transcendental science, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is for graduates and postgraduates in the transcendental science. Therefore literatures like Mahābhārata, the Purāṇas, and similar other literatures which are full of the pastimes of the Lord, are all transcendental literatures, and they should be discussed with full confidence in the society of great devotees.", + "The difficulty is that such literatures, when discussed by professional men, appear to be mundane literature like histories or epics because there are so many historical facts and figures. It is said here, therefore, that such literatures should be discussed in the assembly of the devotees. Unless they are discussed by devotees, such literatures cannot be relished by the higher class of men. So the conclusion is that the Lord is not impersonal in the ultimate issue. He is the Supreme Person, and He has His different activities. He is the leader of all living entities, and He descends at His will and by His personal energy to reclaim the fallen souls, playing exactly like the social, political or religious leaders. Because such roles ultimately culminate in the discussion of topics of the Lord, all such preliminary topics are also transcendental. That is the way of spiritualizing the civic activities of human society. Men have inclinations for studying history and many other mundane literatures, stories, fiction, dramas, magazines, newspapers, etc., so let them be dovetailed with the transcendental service of the Lord, and all of them will turn to the topics relished by all devotees. The propaganda that the Lord is impersonal, that He has no activity, and that He is a dumb stone without any name and form has encouraged people to become godless, faithless demons, and the more they deviate from the transcendental activities of the Lord, the more they become accustomed to mundane activities that only clear their path to hell instead of return them home, back to Godhead.* Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam begins from the history of the Pāṇḍavas (with necessary politics and social activities), and yet Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is said to be the Pāramahaṁsa-saṁhitā, or the Vedic literature meant for the topmost transcendentalist, and in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, paramjñāna, highest transcendental knowledge, is described.

But Mahārāja Parīkṣit was more than that because he was a great devotee of the Lord since his previous birth, and as such he took his birth in an imperial family of the Kurus, and especially that of the Pāṇḍavas. So from the very beginning of his childhood he had the chance of knowing intimately the devotional service of Lord Kṛṣṇa in his own family. The Pāṇḍavas, all being devotees of the Lord, certainly venerated family Deities in the royal palace for worship. Children who appear in such families fortunately generally imitate such worship of the Deities, even in the way of childhood play. By the grace of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, we had the chance of being born in a Vaiṣṇava family, and in our childhood we imitated the worship of Lord Kṛṣṇa by imitating our father, and our father encouraged us in all respects to observe all functions such as the Ratha-yātrā and Dola-yātrā ceremonies, and he used to spend money liberally for distributing prasādam to us children and our friends. Our spiritual master, who also took his birth in a Vaiṣṇava family, got all inspirations from his great Vaiṣṇava father Ṭhākur Bhaktivinode. That is the way of all lucky Vaiṣṇava families. The celebrated Mīrābāi was a staunch devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa as the great lifter of Govardhana Hill.", + "The life history of many such devotees is almost the same because there is always symmetry between the early lives of all great devotees of the Lord. According to Jīva Gosvāmī, Mahārāja Parīkṣit must have heard about the childhood pastimes of Lord Kṛṣṇa at Vṛndāvana, for he used to imitate the pastimes with his young playmates. According to Śrīdhara Svāmī, Mahārāja Parīkṣit used to imitate the worship of the family Deity by elderly members. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī also confirms the viewpoint of Jīva Gosvāmī. So accepting either of them, Mahārāja Parīkṣit was naturally inclined to Lord Kṛṣṇa from his very childhood, and he might have imitated either of the above-mentioned procedures, and all of them establish his great devotion from his very childhood, a symptom of a mahābhāgavata. Such mahābhāgavatas are called nitya-siddhas, or souls liberated from birth. But there are also others who may not be liberated from birth but who develop a tendency for devotional service by association, and they are called sādhana-siddhas. There is no difference between the two in the ultimate issue, and so the conclusion is that everyone can become a sādhana-siddha, a devotee of the Lord, simply by association with the pure devotees. The concrete example is our great spiritual master Śrī Nārada Muni. In his previous life he was simply a boy of a maidservant, but through association with great devotees he became a devotee of the Lord of his own standard, unique in the history of devotional service." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9d64d6b2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 2.3.16", + "devanagari": "वैयासकिश्च भगवान्वासुदेवपरायणः\nउरुगायगुणोदाराः सतां स्युर्हि समागमे", + "transliteration": "vaiyāsakiś ca bhagavān\nvāsudeva-parāyaṇaḥ\nurugāya-guṇodārāḥ\nsatāṁ syur hi samāgame", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vaiyāsakiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the son of Vyāsadeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "full in transcendental knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsudeva", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāyaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attached to" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urugāya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is glorified by great philosophers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-udārāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "great qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satām", + "meanings": [ + "of the devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "syuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "must have been" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "as a matter of fact" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samāgame", + "meanings": [ + "by the presence of." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the son of Vyāsadeva, is also full in transcendental knowledge and a great devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa, son of Vasudeva.

As already described, Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a great devotee of the Lord from his very birth and so was Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Both of them were on the same level, although it appeared that Mahārāja Parīkṣit was a great King accustomed to royal facilities whereas Śukadeva Gosvāmī was a typical renouncer of the world, so much so that he did not even put a cloth on his body. Superficially, Mahārāja Parīkṣit and Śukadeva Gosvāmī might seem to be opposites, but basically they were both unalloyed pure devotees of the Lord. When such devotees are assembled together, there can be no topics save discussions of the glories of the Lord, or bhakti-yoga. In the Bhagavad-gītā also, when there were talks between the Lord and his devotee Arjuna, there could not be any other topic except bhakti-yoga, however the mundane scholars may speculate on it in their own ways. The use of the word ca after vaiyāsakiḥ suggests, according to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, that both Śukadeva Gosvāmī and Mahārāja Parīkṣit were of the same category, settled long before, although one was playing the part of the master and the other the disciple. Since Lord Kṛṣṇa is the center of the topics, the word vāsudeva-parāyaṇaḥ, or devotee of Vāsudeva, suggests devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa, the common aim. Although there were many others who assembled at the place where Mahārāja Parīkṣit was fasting, the natural conclusion is that there was no other topic except the glorification of Lord Kṛṣṇa, because the principal speaker was Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and the chief audience was Mahārāja Parīkṣit.

Time and tide wait for no man. So the time indicated by the sunrise and the sunset will be uselessly wasted if such time is not properly utilized for realizing identification of spiritual values. Even a fraction of the duration of life wasted cannot be compensated by any amount of gold. Human life is simply awarded to a living entity (jīva) so he can realize his spiritual identity and his permanent source of happiness. A living being, especially the human being, is seeking happiness, because happiness is the natural situation of the living entity. But he is vainly seeking happiness in the material atmosphere. A living being is constitutionally a spiritual spark of the complete whole, and his happiness can be perfectly perceived in spiritual activities. The Lord is the complete spirit whole, and His name, form, quality, pastimes, entourage and personality are all identical with Him. Once a person comes into contact with any one of the above-mentioned energies of the Lord through the proper channel of devotional service, the door of perfection is immediately opened. In the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord has explained such contact in the following words: \"Endeavors in devotional service are never baffled. Nor is there failure. A slight beginning of such activities is sufficient even to deliver a person from the great ocean of material fears.\" (Bg. 2.40) As a highly potent drug injected intravenously acts at once on the whole body, similarly the transcendental topics of the Lord injected through the ear of the pure devotee of the Lord can act very efficiently. Aural realization of the transcendental messages implies total realization, just as fructification of one part of a tree implies fructification of all other parts. This realization for a moment in the association of pure devotees like Śukadeva Gosvāmī prepares one's complete life for eternity. And as such, the sun fails to rob the pure devotee of his duration of life inasmuch as he is constantly busy in the devotional service of the Lord, purifying his existence. Death is a symptom of the material infection of the eternal living being, and due to material infection only the eternal living entity is subjected to the law of birth, death, old age and disease.", + "The materialistic way of pious activities, like charity, etc., is recommended in the smṛti śāstras as quoted by Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur. Money given in charity to a suitable person is guaranteed bank balance in the next life. Such charity is recommended to be given to a brāhmaṇa. If the money is given in charity to a non-brāhmaṇa (without brahmanical qualification) the money is returned in the next life in the same proportion. If it is given in charity to a half-educated brāhmaṇa, even then the money is returned double. If the money is given in charity to a learned and fully qualified brāhmaṇa, the money is returned a hundred and thousand times, and if the money is given to a veda-pāraga (one who has factually realized the path of the Vedas), it is returned by unlimited multiplication. The ultimate end of Vedic knowledge is to realize the Personality of Godhead Lord Kṛṣṇa, as it is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ). There is a guarantee of money being returned if given in charity, regardless of the proportion. Similarly, a moment passed in the association of a pure devotee by hearing and chanting the transcendental messages of the Lord is a perfect guarantee for eternal life, for returning home, back to Godhead. Mad-dhāma gatvā punar janma na vidyate. In other words, a devotee of the Lord is guaranteed eternal life.

Consequently there are many problems multiplied by various plans of modernized man. The plans for solving the problems of society have only aggravated the troubles. Even if it is possible to prolong life more than one hundred years, advancement of human civilization does not necessarily follow. The Bhāgavatam says that certain trees live for hundreds and thousands of years. At Vṛndāvana there is a tamarind tree (the place is known as Imlitala) which is said to be existing since the time of Lord Kṛṣṇa. In the Calcutta Botanical Garden there is a banyan tree said to be older than five hundred years, and there are many such trees all over the world. Svāmī Śaṅkarācārya lived only thirty-two years, and Lord Caitanya lived forty-eight years. Does it mean that the prolonged lives of the above-mentioned trees are more important than Śaṅkara or Caitanya? Prolonged life without spiritual value is not very important. One may doubt that trees have life because they do not breathe. But modern scientists like Bose have already proved that there is life in plants, so breathing is no sign of actual life. The Bhāgavatam says that the bellows of the blacksmith breathes very soundly, but that does not mean that the bellows has life. The materialist will argue that life in the tree and life in the man cannot be compared because the tree cannot enjoy life by eating palatable dishes or by enjoying sexual intercourse. In reply to this, the Bhāgavatam asks whether other animals like the dogs and hogs, living in the same village with human beings, do not eat and enjoy sexual life. The specific utterance of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in this connection regarding \"other animals\" means that persons who are simply engaged in the matter of planning a better type of animal life consisting of eating, breathing, and mating are also animals in the shape of human beings. A society of such polished animals cannot benefit suffering humanity, for an animal can easily harm another animal but rarely do good." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cb537403 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,109 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 2.3.19", + "devanagari": "श्वविड्वराहोष्ट्रखरैः संस्तुतः पुरुषः पशुः\nन यत्कर्णपथोपेतो जातु नाम गदाग्रजः", + "transliteration": "śva-viḍ-varāhoṣṭra-kharaiḥ\nsaṁstutaḥ puruṣaḥ paśuḥ\nna yat-karṇa-pathopeto\njātu nāma gadāgrajaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śva", + "meanings": [ + "a dog" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viḍ-varāha", + "meanings": [ + "the village hog who eats stool" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uṣṭra", + "meanings": [ + "the camel" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kharaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and by the asses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁstutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "perfectly praised" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "animal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "of him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karṇa", + "meanings": [ + "ear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patha", + "meanings": [ + "path" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upetaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "reached" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jātu", + "meanings": [ + "at any time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma", + "meanings": [ + "the holy name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gada-agrajaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Kṛṣṇa, the deliverer from all evils." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Men who are like dogs, hogs, camels and asses praise those men who never listen to the transcendental pastimes of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the deliverer from evils.", + "purport": [ + "The general mass of people, unless they are trained systematically for a higher standard of life in spiritual values, are no better than the animals, and in this verse they have been particularly put on the level of the dogs, hogs, camels and asses. Modern university education practically prepares one to acquire a doggish mentality to accept the service of a greater master. Like the dogs, after finishing a so-called education, the so-called educated persons move from door to door with applications for some service, and mostly they are driven away, informed of no vacancy. As the dogs are negligible animals and serve the master faithfully for bits of bread, similarly one serves a master without sufficient rewards.", + "Persons who have no discrimination in the matter of foodstuff and who eat all sorts of rubbish are compared with the hogs. Hogs are very much attached to eating stools. So the stool is a kind of foodstuff for a particular type of animal. And even the stones are eatable by a particular type of animal or bird. But the human being is not meant for eating everything and anything, save grains, vegetables, fruits, milk, sugar, etc. Animal food is not meant for the human being. For chewing solid food, the human being has a particular type of teeth meant for cutting fruits and vegetables. The human being is endowed with two canine teeth as a concession for such persons who will eat animal food at any cost. It is known to everyone that one man's food is another man's poison. Human beings are expected to accept the remnants of food offered to Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and the Lord accepts foodstuff from the categories of leaves, flowers, fruits, etc. (Bg. 9.26) No animal food is offered to the Lord, as prescribed by Vedic scriptures. Therefore, a human being is meant to eat a particular type of food. He should not imitate the animals to derive so-called vitamin values. Therefore, a person who has no discrimination in regard to eating is compared with the hogs.", + "The camel is a kind of animal which takes pleasure in eating thorns. Similarly, a person who wants to enjoy family life or the worldly life of so-called enjoyment is compared with the camel. Materialistic life is full of thorns, so one should live only by the prescribed method of Vedic regulations just to make the best use of a bad bargain. Life in the material world is maintained by sucking one's own blood. The central point of attraction for material enjoyment is sex life. To enjoy sex life is to suck one's own blood, and there is not much more to be explained in this connection. The camel also sucks its own blood while chewing the thorny twigs. The thorns that the camel eats cut the tongue of the camel, and so blood begins to flow within the camel's mouth. The thorns, mixed with fresh blood, create a taste for the foolish camel, and so he enjoys the thorn-eating business with false pleasure. Similarly, the great business magnates, industrialists who work very hard to earn money by different ways and questionable means, eat the thorny result of their action mixed up with their own blood. Therefore the Bhāgavatam has situated these diseased fellows along with the camels.", + "The ass is another animal who is celebrated as the greatest fool, even amongst the animals. The ass works very hard and carries burdens of the maximum weight without making profit for itself.* The ass is generally engaged by the washerman, whose social position is not very respectable. And the special qualification of the ass is that it is very much accustomed to being kicked by the opposite sex. The ass, when he begs for sexual intercourse, is kicked by the fair sex, yet he still follows the female for such sexual pleasure. A henpecked man is compared, therefore, with the ass. The general mass of people work very hard, especially in the age of Kali. In this age the human being is actually engaged in the work of an ass, carrying heavy burdens and driving ṭhelā and rickshaws. The so-called advancement of human civilization has engaged a human being in the work of an ass. The laborers in great factories and workshops are also engaged in such burdensome work, and after working hard during the day, the poor laborer has to be again kicked by the fair sex, not only for sex enjoyment but also for so many household affairs.", + "So Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam's categorization of the common man without any spiritual enlightenment into the society of the dogs, hogs, camels and asses is not at all an exaggeration. The leaders of such ignorant masses of people may feel very proud of being adored by such a number of dogs and hogs, but that is not very flattering. The Bhāgavatam openly declares that a person, although a great leader of such dogs and hogs disguised as men, may have no taste for being enlightened in the science of Kṛṣṇa. Such a leader is also an animal and nothing more. He may be designated as a powerful, strong animal, or a big animal, but in the estimation of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam he is never given a place in the category of man, on account of his atheistic temperament. Or, in other words, such godless leaders of dogs and hog-like men are bigger animals with animal qualities in greater proportion." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..0974ed01 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 2.3.20", + "devanagari": "बिले बतोरुक्रमविक्रमान्ये न शृण्वतः कर्णपुटे नरस्य\nजिह्वासती दार्दुरिकेव सूत न चोपगायत्य् उरुगायगाथाः", + "transliteration": "bile batorukrama-vikramān ye\nna śṛṇvataḥ karṇa-puṭe narasya\njihvāsatī dārdurikeva sūta\nna copagāyaty urugāya-gāthāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bile", + "meanings": [ + "snake holes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bata", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urukrama", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord, who acts marvelously" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikramān", + "meanings": [ + "prowess" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śṛṇvataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "heard" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karṇa-puṭe", + "meanings": [ + "the earholes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "narasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the man, jihvā—tongue" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asatī", + "meanings": [ + "useless" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dārdurikā", + "meanings": [ + "of the frogs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "exactly like that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sūta", + "meanings": [ + "O Sūta Gosvāmī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upagāyati", + "meanings": [ + "chants loudly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urugāya", + "meanings": [ + "worth singing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gāthāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "songs." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One who has not listened to the messages about the prowess and marvelous acts of the Personality of Godhead and has not sung or chanted loudly the worthy songs about the Lord is to be considered to possess earholes like that of the snakes and a tongue like that of the frogs.", + "purport": [ + "Devotional service of the Lord is rendered by all limbs or parts of the body. It is the transcendental dynamic force of the spirit soul; therefore a devotee is engaged one hundred percent in the service of the Lord.

As such, the senses and the action of the senses are to be considered as impure or materialistic as long as they are employed in sense gratification only. The purified senses are engaged not in sense gratification but in the service of the Lord in toto. The Lord is the Supreme with all senses, and the servitor who is part and parcel of the Lord also has the same senses. Service of the Lord is the completely purified use of the senses, as it is described in the Bhagavad-gītā. The Lord imparted instructions with full senses, and Arjuna received them with full senses, and thus there was a perfect exchange of sensible and logical understanding between the master and the disciple. Spiritual understanding is nothing like an electrical charge from the master to the disciple, as it is foolishly claimed by some propaganda-mongers. Everything is full of sense and logic, and the exchange of views between the master and disciple is possible when the reception is submissive and real only. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said that one should receive the teaching of Lord Caitanya with intellect and full senses so that one can logically understand the great mission.", + "In the impure state of a living being, the respective senses are fully engaged in mundane affairs.

Therefore the messages of the Bhagavad-gītā and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam should be preached all over the world very loudly. That is the duty of a pure devotee who has actually heard about them from the perfect sources. Many want to speak something to others, but because they are not trained up to speak on the subject matter of Vedic wisdom they are all speaking nonsense, and the people are receiving them with no sense. There are hundreds and thousands of sources for distributing mundane news of the world, and people of the world are also receiving them. Similarly, the people of the world should be taught to hear the transcendental topics of the Lord, and the devotee of the Lord must speak loudly so that they can hear. The frogs loudly croak, with the result that they invite the snakes to eat them. The human tongue is especially given for chanting the Vedic hymns and not for croaking like the frogs. The word asatī used in this verse is also significant. Asatī means a woman who has become a prostitute. A prostitute has no reputation for good womanly qualities.

The second-class devotee accepts disciples from the section of third-class devotees, or nondevotees.

The Lord is the Lord of everyone, including the great kings and emperors, and as such, rich men in the estimation of mundane people must therefore make a point to visit the temple of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and regularly bow down before the Deity.

By the hearing process, as mentioned hereinbefore, this realization of the presence of the Lord in the temple is made possible. As such, the first process of hearing in the routine work of devotional service is the essential point. Hearing by all classes of devotees from the authentic sources like Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is essential. The common man who is puffed up with his material position and does not bow down before the Deity of the Lord in the temple, or who defies temple worship without any knowledge of the science, must know that his so-called turban or crown will only succeed in further drowning him in the water of the ocean of material existence. A drowning man with a heavy weight on his head is sure to go down more swiftly than others who have no heavy weight. A foolish, puffed up man defies the science of God and says God has no meaning for him, but when he is in the grip of God's law and is caught up by some disease like cerebral thrombosis, that godless man sinks into the ocean of nescience by the weight of his material acquisition. Advancement of material science without God consciousness is a heavy load on the head of human society, so one must take heed of this great warning.", + "The common man, if he has no time to worship the Lord, may at least engage his hands for a few seconds washing or sweeping the Lord's temple.

The idea is that, however important a man one may be, he must accept the supremacy of the Supreme Lord. This God consciousness will help a man even in his material prosperity. Mahārāja Pratāparudra's subordination before the Lord Jagannātha made him a powerful king, so much so that even the great Pathan in his time could not enter into Orissa on account of the powerful Mahārāja Pratāparudra. And at last Mahārāja Pratāparudra was graced by Lord Śrī Caitanya on the very grounds of his acceptance of subordination to the Lord of the universe.

Any member of the family who is above twelve years of age should be initiated by a bona fide spiritual master, and all the members of the household should be engaged in the daily service of the Lord, beginning from morning (4 a.m.) till night (10 p.m.) by performing maṅgala-ārātrika, nirañjana, arcanā, pūjā, kīrtana, śṛṅgāra, bhoga-vaikāli, sandhyā-ārātrika, pāṭha, bhoga (at night), śayana-ārātrika, etc. Engagement in such worship of the Deity, under the direction of a bona fide spiritual master, will greatly help the householders to purify their very existence and make rapid progress in spiritual knowledge. Simple theoretical book knowledge is not sufficient for a neophyte devotee. Book knowledge is theoretical, whereas the arcanā process is practical. Spiritual knowledge must be developed by a combination of theoretical and practical knowledge, and that is the guaranteed way for attainment of spiritual perfection. The training of devotional service by a neophyte devotee completely depends on the expert spiritual master who knows how to lead his disciple to make gradual progress towards the path back home, back to Godhead. One should not become a pseudo-spiritual master as a matter of business to meet one's family expenditure, but one must be an expert spiritual master to deliver the disciple from the clutches of impending death. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur has defined the bona fide qualities of a spiritual master, and one of the verses in that description reads:", + "śrī-vigrahārādhana-nitya-nānā-

The spiritual master teaches the neophyte devotee all these kindly and personally to help him gradually in the realization of the transcendental name, quality, form, etc., of the Lord.", + "Attention engaged in the service of the Lord, especially in dressing and decorating the temple, accompanied by musical kīrtana and spiritual instructions from scriptures, can only save the common man from the hellish cinema attraction and rubbish sex-songs broadcast everywhere by radios. If one is unable to maintain a temple at home, he should go to another's temple where all the above performances are regularly executed. Visiting the temple of a devotee and looking at the profusely forms of the Lord well dressed in a well decorated sanctified temple naturally infuse the mundane mind with spiritual inspiration. People should visit holy places like Vṛndāvana where such temples and worship of the Deity are specifically maintained. Formerly all rich men like kings and rich merchants constructed such temples under the direction of expert devotees of the Lord, like the six Gosvāmīs, and it is the duty of the common man to take advantage of these temples and festivals observed in the holy pilgrimages by following the footprints of great devotees (anuvraja). One should not visit all these sanctified pilgrimages and temples with sightseeing in mind, but one must go to such temples and sanctified places immortalized by the transcendental pastimes of the Lord and guided by proper men who know the science.

Ghosts are always very bad elements, always creating a fearful situation for others. Similarly, the ghost-like nondevotees who have no respect for the pure devotees, nor for the Viṣṇu Deity in the temples, create a fearful situation for the devotees at all times. The Lord never accepts any offering by such impure ghosts. There is a common saying that one should first love the dog of the beloved before one shows any loving sentiments for the beloved. The stage of a pure devotee is attained by sincerely serving a pure devotee of the Lord. The first condition of devotional service of the Lord is therefore to be a servant of a pure devotee, and this condition is fulfilled by the statement \"reception of the dust of the lotus feet of a pure devotee who also served another pure devotee.\" That is the way of pure disciplic succession, or devotional paramparā.", + "Mahārāja Rahūgaṇa inquired from the great saint Jaḍbharata as to how he attained such a liberated stage of a paramahaṁsa, and in answer the great saint replied as follows:", + "rahūgaṇaitat tapasā na yāti

Lord Caitanya therefore designated Himself as the \"gopī-bhartur dāsa-dāsā dāsānudāsa,\" [Padyāvalī 74] or \"the most obedient servant of the servants of the Lord who maintains the gopī damsels at Vṛndāvana.\" A pure devotee therefore never approaches the Lord directly, but tries to please the Lord's servant of servants, and thus the Lord becomes pleased, and the devotee then only can relish the taste of the tulasī leaves stuck to His lotus feet. In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said that the Lord is never to be found by becoming a great scholar of the Vedic literatures, but He is very easily approachable through His pure devotee. In Vṛndāvana all the pure devotees pray for the mercy of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, the pleasure potency of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī is a tender-hearted feminine counterpart of the supreme whole, resembling the perfectional stage of the worldly feminine nature. Therefore, the mercy of Rādhārāṇī is available very readily by the sincere devotees, and once She recommends such a devotee to Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Lord at once accepts the devotee's admittance in His association. The conclusion is, therefore, that one should be more serious about seeking the mercy of the devotee than that of the Lord directly, and by doing so (by the good will of the devotee) the natural attraction for the service of the Lord will be revived." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/24.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/24.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1f10af5b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/24.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 24, + "reference": "SB 2.3.24", + "devanagari": "तद् अश्मसारं हृदयं बतेदं यद्गृह्यमाणैर्हरिनामधेयैः\nन विक्रियेताथ यदा विकारो नेत्रे जलं गात्ररुहेषु हर्षः", + "transliteration": "tad aśmasāraṁ hṛdayaṁ batedaṁ\nyad gṛhyamāṇair hari-nāma-dheyaiḥ\nna vikriyetātha yadā vikāro\nnetre jalaṁ gātra-ruheṣu harṣaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśmasāram", + "meanings": [ + "is steel-framed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdayam", + "meanings": [ + "heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "batedam", + "meanings": [ + "certainly that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhyamāṇaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in spite of chanting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hari-nāma", + "meanings": [ + "the holy name of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dheyaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by concentration of the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "does not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikriyeta", + "meanings": [ + "change" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadā", + "meanings": [ + "when" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "reaction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "netre", + "meanings": [ + "in the eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jalam", + "meanings": [ + "tears" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gātra-ruheṣu", + "meanings": [ + "at the pores" + ] + }, + { + "word": "harṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "eruptions of ecstasy." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Certainly that heart is steel-framed which, in spite of chanting the holy name of the Lord with concentration, does not change when ecstasy takes place and tears fill the eyes and hairs stand on end.", + "purport": [ + "We should note with profit that in the first three chapters of the Second Canto, a gradual process of development of devotional service is being presented. In the First Chapter the first step in devotional service for God consciousness by the process of hearing and chanting has been stressed, and a gross conception of the Personality of Godhead in His universal form for the beginners is recommended. By such a gross conception of God through the material manifestations of His energy, one is enabled to spiritualize the mind and the senses and gradually concentrate the mind upon Lord Viṣṇu, the Supreme, who is present as the Supersoul in every heart and everywhere, in every atom of the material universe. The system of pañca-upāsanā, recommending five mental attitudes for the common man, is also enacted for this purpose, namely gradual development, worship of the superior that may be in the form of fire, electricity, the sun, the mass of living being, Lord Śiva and at last, the impersonal Supersoul, the partial representation of Lord Viṣṇu. They are all nicely described in the Second Chapter, but in the Third Chapter further development is prescribed after one has actually reached the stage of Viṣṇu worship, or pure devotional service, and the mature stage of Viṣṇu worship is suggested herein in relation to the change of heart.", + "The whole process of spiritual culture is aimed at changing the heart of the living being in the matter of his eternal relation with the Supreme Lord as subordinate servant, his eternal constitutional position. So with the progress of devotional service, the reaction of change in the heart is exhibited by gradual detachment from the sense of material enjoyment by a false sense of lording it over the world and an increase in the attitude of rendering loving service to the Lord. Vidhi-bhakti, or regulated devotional service by the limbs of the body (namely the eyes, the ears, the nose, the hands, the legs, as already explained hereinbefore), is now stressed herein in relation to the mind, which is the impetus of all activities of the limbs of the body. It is expected by all means that by discharging regulated devotional service one must manifest the change of heart. If there is no such change, the heart must be considered as steel-framed, for it is not melted even when there is chanting of the holy name of the Lord. We must always remember that hearing and chanting are the basic principles of discharging devotional duties, and if they are properly performed there will follow the reactional ecstasy with signs of tears in the eyes and standing of the hairs on the body. These are natural consequences and are the preliminary symptoms of bhāva stage, which occurs before one reaches the perfectional stage of prema, love of Godhead.", + "If the reaction does not take place, even after continuous hearing and chanting of the holy name of the Lord, it may be considered to be due to offenses only. That is the opinion of the Sandharbha. In the beginning of chanting of the holy name of the Lord, if the devotee has not been very careful about evading the ten kinds of offenses at the feet of the holy name, certainly the reaction of feelings of separation will not be visible by tears in the eyes and standing of the hair on end.", + "The bhāva stage is manifested by eight transcendental symptoms, namely stuntedness, perspiration, standing of hairs on end, failing in voice, trembling, paleness of the body, tears in the eyes and finally trance. The Nectar of Devotion, a summary study of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī's Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu, explains those symptoms and vividly describes other transcendental developments, both in steady and accelerating manifestations.", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur has very critically discussed all these bhāva displays in connection with some unscrupulous neophyte's imitating the above symptoms for cheap appreciation. Not only Viśvanātha Cakravartī but also Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī treated them very critically. Sometimes all the above eight symptoms of ecstasy are imitated by the mundane devotees (prākṛta sahajiyās), but the pseudo symptoms are at once detected when one sees the pseudo devotee addicted to so many forbidden things. A person addicted to smoking, drinking or illegitimate sex with women, even though decorated with the signs of a devotee, cannot have all the above-mentioned ecstatic symptoms. But it is seen that sometimes they are willfully imitated, and for this reason Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī accuses the imitators of being stone-hearted men. They are even affected sometimes by the reflection of such transcendental symptoms, yet if they still do not give up the forbidden habits, then they are hopeless cases for transcendental realization.", + "When Lord Caitanya met Śrīla Rāmānanda Rāya of Kavaur on the bank of Godāvarī, the Lord developed all these symptoms, but because of the presence of some nondevotee brāhmaṇas who were attendants of the Rāya, the Lord surpressed these symptoms. So sometimes they are not visible even in the body of the first-class devotee for certain circumstantial reasons. Therefore real steady bhāva is definitely displayed in the matter of cessation of material desires (kṣānti), utilization of every moment in the transcendental loving service of the Lord (avyārtha-kālatvam), eagerness for glorifying the Lord constantly (nāma-gāne sadā ruci), attraction for living in the land of the Lord (prītis tad-vasati sthale), complete detachment from material happiness (virakti), and pridelessness (mānaśūnyatā). One who has developed all these transcendental qualities is really possessed of the bhāva stage, as distinguished from the stone-hearted imitator or mundane devotee.", + "The whole process can be summarized as follows: the advanced devotee who chants the holy name of the Lord in a perfectly offenseless manner and is friendly to everyone can actually relish the transcendental taste of glorifying the Lord. And the result of such realization is reflected in the cessation of all material desires, etc., as mentioned above. The neophytes, due to their being in the lower stage of devotional service, are invariably envious, so much so that they invent their own ways and means of devotional regulations without following the ācāryas. As such, even if they make a show of constantly chanting the holy name of the Lord, they cannot relish the transcendental taste of the holy name. Therefore, the show of tears in the eyes, trembling, perspiration or unconsciousness, etc., are all condemned. They can, however, get into touch with a pure devotee of the Lord and rectify their bad habits; otherwise they shall continue to be stone-hearted and unfit for any treatment. A complete progressive march on the return path home, back to Godhead, will depend on the instructions of the revealed scriptures directed by a realized devotee." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4d8853ef --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/03/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 2.3.25", + "devanagari": "अथाभिधेह्य् अंग मनो ऽनुकूलं प्रभाषसे भागवतप्रधानः\nयद् आह वैयासकिर् आत्मविद्या विशारदो नृपतिं साधु पृष्टः", + "transliteration": "athābhidhehy aṅga mano 'nukūlaṁ\nprabhāṣase bhāgavata-pradhānaḥ\nyad āha vaiyāsakir ātma-vidyā-\nviśārado nṛpatiṁ sādhu pṛṣṭaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhidhehi", + "meanings": [ + "please explain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅga", + "meanings": [ + "O Sūta Gosvāmī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anukūlam", + "meanings": [ + "favorable to our mentality" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhāṣase", + "meanings": [ + "you do speak" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavata", + "meanings": [ + "the great devotee" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pradhānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the chief" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yad āha", + "meanings": [ + "what he spoke" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiyāsakiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Śukadeva Gosvāmī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-vidyā", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśāradaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "expert" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛpatim", + "meanings": [ + "unto the king" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhu", + "meanings": [ + "very good" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being asked." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Sūta Gosvāmī, your words are pleasing to our minds.

In the womb of his mother, he was struck by the brahmāstra atomic bomb released by Aśvatthāmā, but by the grace of the Lord he was saved from being burnt by the fiery weapon, and since then the King continually concentrated his mind upon Lord Kṛṣṇa, which made him perfectly chaste in devotional service.

He was born in a family of devotees like the Pāṇḍavas, and just to continue the dynasty of the Pāṇḍavas, Mahārāja Parīkṣit was specifically saved by the Lord just to show special favor to the Pāṇḍavas, and later on, by the arrangement of the Lord, Mahārāja Parīkṣit was cursed by the boy of a brāhmaṇa and was able to get the association of a spiritual master like Śukadeva Gosvāmī. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said that a fortunate person, by the mercy of the spiritual master and Lord Kṛṣṇa, achieves the path of devotional service. This was perfectly applicable in the case of Mahārāja Parīkṣit. By way of being born in the family of devotees, he automatically came in touch with Kṛṣṇa, and after being so contacted he constantly remembered Him. Consequently Lord Kṛṣṇa gave the King a further chance of development in devotional service by introducing him to Śukadeva Gosvāmī, a stalwart devotee of the Lord with perfect knowledge in self-realization.

Most people are attracted by such activities. Even in the activities of their modern godless civilization, people are more concerned with economic development and sense gratification without any religious sentiments. As a great emperor of the world, Mahārāja Parīkṣit had to observe such regulations of the Vedic karma-kāṇḍīya section, but by the slight association with Śukadeva Gosvāmī he could perfectly understand that Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Absolute Personality of Godhead (Vāsudeva), for whom he had a natural love since his birth, is everything, and thus he fixed his mind firmly upon Him, renouncing all modes of Vedic karma-kāṇḍīya activities. This perfectional stage is attained by a jñānī after many, many births. The jñānīs, or the empiric philosophers endeavoring for liberation, are thousands of times better than the fruitive workers, and out of hundreds of thousands of such jñānīs one is liberated factually. And out of hundreds of thousands of such liberated persons, even one person is rarely found who can firmly fix his mind unto the lotus feet of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, as it is declared by the Lord Himself in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.19). Mahārāja Parīkṣit is specially qualified with the word mahāmanāḥ, which puts him on an equal level with the mahātmās described in the Bhagavad-gītā. In the later age also there were many mahātmās of this type, and they also gave up all karma-kāṇḍīya conceptions of life, solely and wholly depending on the Supreme Personality of Godhead Kṛṣṇa.

For every unknown thing, we have to learn and inquire from a learned personality. The question of creation is also one of such inquiries to be made from the right person. The spiritual master, therefore, must be one who is sarva-jña, as stated hereinbefore in connection with Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Thus all inquiries on God which are unknown to the disciple may be made from the qualified spiritual master, and here the practical example is set by Mahārāja Parīkṣit. It was, however, already known to Mahārāja Parīkṣit that everything that we see is born out of the energy of the Lord, as we have all learnt in the very beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (janmādy asya yataḥ). So Mahārāja Parīkṣit wanted to know the process of creation. The origin of creation was known to him; otherwise he would not have inquired how the Personality of Godhead, by His different energies, creates this phenomenal world. The common man also knows that the creation is made by some creator and is not created automatically. We have no experience in the practical world that a thing is created automatically. Foolish people say that the creative energy is independent and acts automatically, as electrical energy works. But the intelligent man knows that even the electrical energy is generated by an expert engineer in the localized powerhouse, and thus the energy is distributed everywhere under the resident engineer's supervision. The Lord's supervision in connection with creation is mentioned even in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.10), and it is clearly said there that material energy is a manifestation of one of many such energies of the Supreme (parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate). An inexperienced boy may be struck with wonder by seeing the impersonal actions of electronics or many other wonderful things conducted by electrical energy, but an experienced man knows that there is a living man behind the action, who creates such energy. Similarly the so-called scholars and philosophers of the world may, by mental speculation, present so many Utopian theories about the impersonal creation of the universe, but an intelligent devotee of the Lord, by studying the Bhagavad-gītā, can know that behind the creation is the hand of the Supreme Lord, just as in the generating electrical powerhouse there is the resident engineer. The research scholar finds out the cause and the effect of everything, and the research scholars as great as Brahmā, Śiva, Indra and many other demigods are sometimes bewildered by seeing the wonderful creative energy of the Lord, so what to speak of the tiny mundane scholars dealing in petty things. As there are differences in the living conditions of different planets of the universe, and as one planet is superior to others, similarly the brains of the living entities in those respective planets are also of different categorical values. As it is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā, one can compare the long duration of life of the inhabitants of Brahmā's planet, which is inconceivable to the inhabitants of this planet earth, to the categorical value of the brain of Brahmājī, also inconceivable by any great scientist of this planet. And with such high brain power, even Brahmājī has described in his great Saṁhitā (Brahma-saṁhitā) as follows:", + "īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ

The ministers may be īśvaras or controllers, but the Supreme Lord is maheśvara or the creator of the controllers. Persons with a poor fund of knowledge do not know this, and therefore they have the audacity to deride Him because He comes before us by His causeless mercy occasionally as a human being. The Lord is not like the human being. He is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, or the Absolute Personality of Godhead, and there is no difference between His body and His soul. He is both the power and the powerful.", + "Mahārāja Parīkṣit did not ask his spiritual master, Śukadeva Gosvāmī, to narrate Lord Kṛṣṇa's pastimes in Vṛndāvana, but he wanted to hear first about the creation of the Lord. Śukadeva Gosvāmī did not say that the King should hear about the direct transcendental pastimes of the Lord. The time was very short, and naturally Śukadeva Gosvāmī could have gone directly to the Tenth Canto to make a shortcut of the whole thing, as it is generally done by the professional reciters. But neither the King nor the great speaker of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam jumped up like the organizers of Bhāgavatam, but both of them proceeded systematically, so that both future readers and hearers may take lessons from the example of the procedure of reciting Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Those who are in control of the external energy of the Lord, or in other words those who are in the material world, must first of all know how the external energy of the Lord is working under the direction of the Supreme Personality, and afterwards one may try to enter into the activities of His internal energy. The mundaners are mostly worshipers of Durgā Devī, the external energy of Kṛṣṇa, but they do not know that Durgā Devī is but the shadow energy of the Lord. Behind her astonishing display of material workings, the direction of the Lord is there, as it is confirmed in the Gītā (Bg. 9.10). The Brahma-saṁhitā affirms that Durgā-śakti is working by the direction of Govinda, and without His sanction the powerful Durgā-śakti cannot move even a blade of grass. Therefore the neophyte devotee, instead of jumping at once on the platform of transcendental pastimes presented by the internal energy of the Lord, may know how great the Supreme Lord is by inquiring about the process of His creative energy. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta also, descriptions of the creative energy and the Lord's hand in it are explained, and the author of Caitanya-caritāmṛta has warned the neophyte devotees to be seriously on guard against the pitfall of neglecting the knowledge about Kṛṣṇa as to how great He is. Only when one knows Lord Kṛṣṇa's greatness can one firmly put one's unflinching faith in Him; otherwise, like the common man, Lord Kṛṣṇa will be mistaken as one of the many demigods, or a historical personality, or a myth only, even by the great leaders of men. The transcendental pastimes of the Lord in Vṛndāvana, or even at Dvārakā, are relishable by persons who have already qualified themselves in advanced spiritual techniques, and the common man maybe able to attain to such a plane by the gradual process of service and inquiries, as we shall see in the behavior of Mahārāja Parīkṣit." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d11251c1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 2.4.7", + "devanagari": "यथा गोपायति विभुर्यथा संयच्छते पुनः\nयां यां शक्तिम् उपाश्रित्य पुरुशक्तिः परः पुमान्\nआत्मानं क्रीडयन्क्रीडन्करोति विकरोति च", + "transliteration": "yathā gopāyati vibhur\nyathā saṁyacchate punaḥ\nyāṁ yāṁ śaktim upāśritya\npuru-śaktiḥ paraḥ pumān\nātmānaṁ krīḍayan krīḍan\nkaroti vikaroti ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gopāyati", + "meanings": [ + "maintains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁyacchate", + "meanings": [ + "winds up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yām yām", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaktim", + "meanings": [ + "energies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upāśritya", + "meanings": [ + "by employing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puru-śaktiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the all-powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pumān", + "meanings": [ + "Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "plenary expansion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krīḍayan", + "meanings": [ + "having engaged them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krīḍan", + "meanings": [ + "as also personally being engaged" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karoti", + "meanings": [ + "do them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikaroti", + "meanings": [ + "and causes to be done" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Kindly describe how the Supreme Lord, who is all-powerful, engages His different energies and different expansions in maintaining and again winding up the phenomenal world in the sporting spirit of a player.", + "purport": [ + "In the Kaṭhopaniṣad the Supreme Lord is described as the chief eternal being amongst all other eternal individual beings (nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām) and the one Supreme Lord who maintains innumerable other individual living beings (eko bahūnāṁ yo vidadhāti kāmān). So all living entities, both in conditioned state and in liberated state, are maintained by the Almighty Supreme Lord. Such maintenances are effected by the Lord through His different expansions of Self and three principal energies, namely the internal, external and marginal energies. The living entities are His marginal energies, and some of them, in the confidence of the Lord, are entrusted with the work of creation also, as are Brahmā, Marīci, etc., and the acts of creation are inspired by the Lord unto them (tene brahma hṛdā). The external energy (māyā) is also impregnated with the jīvas or conditioned souls. The unconditioned marginal potency acts in the spiritual kingdom, and the Lord, by His different plenary expansions, maintains them in different transcendental relations displayed in the spiritual sky.

And there are innumerable universes, and all of them aggregated together are known as the created material world. And this part of His creation is only a fractional portion of the complete creation. The material world stands as a part only (ekāṁśena sthito jagat). Supposing that the material world is a display of one part of His energy, the remaining three parts consist of the Vaikuṇṭha-jagat or spiritual world described in the Bhagavad-gītā as mad-dhāma or sanātana-dhāma, or the eternal world. We have marked in the previous verse that He creates and again winds up the creation. This action is applicable in the material world only because the other greater part of His creation, namely the Vaikuṇṭha world, is neither created nor annihilated; otherwise the Vaikuṇṭha-dhāma would not have been called eternal. The Lord exists with dhāma; His eternal name, quality, pastimes, entourage and personality are all a display of His different energies and expansions. The Lord is called anādi, or having no creator, and ādi, or the origin of all. We think in our own imperfect way that the Lord is also created, but the Vedānta informs us that He is not created. Rather, everything else is created by Him (nārāyaṇaḥ paro 'vyaktāt). Therefore for the common man these are all very wonderful matters for consideration. Even for the great scholars they are inconceivable, and thus such scholars present theories contradictory to one another. Even for the insignificant part of His creation, this particular universe, they have no complete information as to how far this limited space is extended, or how many stars and planets are there, or the different conditions of those innumerable planets. Modern scientists have insufficient knowledge of all this. Some of them assert that there are 100,000,000 planets scattered all over space.

Vibhūti means specific powers, and bhinnam means variegated. Scientists who are attempting to explore outer space and are trying to reach other planets by mechanical arrangements must know for certain that organisms adapted to the atmosphere of earth cannot exist in the atmospheres of other planets (Easy Journey to Other Planets). One has to prepare himself, therefore, to be transferred to a different planet after being relieved of the present body, as it is said in the Bhagavad-gītā, yānti deva-vratā devān pitèn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ bhūtāni yānti bhūtejyā yānti mad-yājino 'pi mām: \"Those who worship the demigods will take birth among the demigods; those who worship ghosts and spirits will take birth among such beings, and those who worship Me will live with Me.\" (Bg. 9.25)", + "Mahārāja Parīkṣit's statement regarding the working of the creative energy of the Lord discloses that he knew everything of the process of creation.

He said therefore that even greatly learned scholars fail to know about that, even after great effort. The Lord is unlimited, and His activities are also unfathomed. Any living being, up to the standard of Brahmājī, the highest perfect living being within the universe, with a limited source of knowledge and with imperfect senses can never imagine knowing about the unlimited. We can know something of the unlimited when it is explained by the unlimited, as it has been done by the Lord Himself in the unique statements of the Bhagavad-gītā, and it can also be known to some extent from realized souls like Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who learned it from Vyāsadeva, a disciple of Nārada, and thus the perfect knowledge can descend by the chain of disciplic succession only, and not by any form of experimental knowledge, old or modern." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..944eabf2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 2.4.9", + "devanagari": "यथा गुणांस्तु प्रकृतेर्युगपत्क्रमशो ऽपि वा\nबिभर्ति भूरिशस्त्व् एकः कुर्वन्कर्माणि जन्मभिः", + "transliteration": "yathā guṇāṁs tu prakṛter\nyugapat kramaśo 'pi vā\nbibharti bhūriśas tv ekaḥ\nkurvan karmāṇi janmabhiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as they are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇān", + "meanings": [ + "the modes of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prakṛteḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the material energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yugapat", + "meanings": [ + "simultaneously" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kramaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "gradually" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "either" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bibharti", + "meanings": [ + "maintains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūriśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "many forms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kurvan", + "meanings": [ + "acting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by incarnations." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is one, whether He alone acts with the modes of material nature, or simultaneously expands in many forms, or expands consecutively to direct the modes of nature.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/10.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/10.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5c508f6d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/10.json @@ -0,0 +1,97 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 10, + "reference": "SB 2.4.10", + "devanagari": "विचिकित्सितम् एतन्मे ब्रवीतु भगवान्यथा\nशाब्दे ब्रह्मणि निष्णातः परस्मिंश्च भवान्खलु", + "transliteration": "vicikitsitam etan me\nbravītu bhagavān yathā\nśābde brahmaṇi niṣṇātaḥ\nparasmiṁś ca bhavān khalu", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vicikitsitam", + "meanings": [ + "doubtful inquiry" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "of me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bravītu", + "meanings": [ + "just clear up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "powerful like the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as much as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śābde", + "meanings": [ + "sound transcendental" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmaṇi", + "meanings": [ + "Vedic literature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niṣṇātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fully realized" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parasmin", + "meanings": [ + "in transcendence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavān", + "meanings": [ + "your good self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "khalu", + "meanings": [ + "as a matter of fact." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Kindly clear up all these doubtful inquiries, because you are not only vastly learned in the Vedic literatures and self-realized in transcendence, but you are also a great devotee of the Lord, and therefore you are as good as the Personality of Godhead.", + "purport": [ + "In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said that the Supreme Absolute Truth, Govinda, the Personality of Godhead, although one without a second, is infallibly expanded by innumerable forms nondifferent from one another, and although He is the original person, He is still ever young with permanent youthful energy. He is very difficult to be known simply by learning the transcendental science of the Vedas, but He is very easily realized by His pure devotees.", + "The expansion of different forms of the Lord, as from Kṛṣṇa to Baladeva to Saṅkarṣaṇa, from Saṅkarṣaṇa to Vāsudeva, from Vāsudeva to Aniruddha, from Aniruddha to Pradyumna and then again to second Saṅkarṣaṇa and from Him to the Nārāyaṇa-Puruṣāvatāras, and innumerable other forms, which are compared to the constant flowing of the uncountable waves of a river, are all one and the same. They are like lamps of equal power which kindle from one lamp to another. That is the transcendental potency of the Lord. The Vedas say that He is so complete that even though the whole complete identity is emanated from Him, He still remains the same complete whole (pūrṇasya pūrṇam ādāya pūrṇam evāvaśiṣyate). As such, there is no validity in a material conception of the Lord by the mental speculators. Thus He remains always a mystery for the mundane scholar, even if he is vastly learned in the Vedic literatures (vedeṣu durlabham adurlabham ātma-bhaktau). Therefore, the Lord is beyond the limit of conception for mundane learned scholars, philosophers or scientists. He is easily understandable by the pure devotee because the Lord declares in the Bhagavad-gītā that after surpassing the stage of knowledge, when one is able to be engaged in the devotional service of the Lord, then only can one know the true nature of the Lord (Bg. 18.54). No one can have any clear conception of the Lord or His holy name, form, attributes, pastimes, etc., unless one is engaged in His transcendental loving service. The statement of the Bhagavad-gītā that one must first of all surrender unto the Lord, being freed from all other engagements, means that one must become a pure unconditional devotee of the Lord. Only then can one know Him by the strength of devotional service.", + "Mahārāja Parīkṣit admitted in the previous verse that the Lord is inconceivable even for the greatest learned scholars. Why then should he again request Śukadeva Gosvāmī to clarify his insufficient knowledge about the Lord? The reason is clear. Śukadeva Gosvāmī was not only vastly learned in the Vedic literatures, but he was also a great self-realized soul and a powerful devotee of the Lord. A powerful devotee of the Lord is, by the grace of the Lord, more than the Lord Himself. The Personality of Godhead Śrī Rāmacandra attempted to bridge the Indian Ocean to reach the island of Laṅkā, but Śrī Hanumānjī, the unalloyed devotee of the Personality of Godhead, could cross the ocean simply by jumping over it. The Lord is so merciful upon His pure devotee that He presents His beloved devotee as more powerful than Himself. The Lord expressed Himself to be unable to save Durvāsā Muni, although the Muni was so powerful that he could reach the Lord directly in these material conditions. But Durvāsā Muni was saved by Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, a devotee of the Lord. Therefore, a devotee of the Lord is not only more powerful than the Lord, but also worship of the devotee is considered more effective than direct worship of the Lord (mad-bhakta-pūjābhyadhikā).", + "The conclusion is, therefore, that a serious devotee must first approach a spiritual master who is not only well versed in the Vedic literatures but is also a great devotee with factual realization of the Lord and His different energies. Without the help of such a devotee spiritual master, no one can make progress in the transcendental science of the Lord.

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī offers his good counsel to the interested Vaiṣṇavas when he says that they should not only be interested to hear about the Lord's activities (like rāsa-līlā, etc.), but that they must be keenly interested in His pastimes in His features of the Puruṣāvatāras in connection with sṛṣṭi-tattva, creational functions, following the examples of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, the ideal disciple, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the ideal spiritual master." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6e3af3bf --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 2.4.11", + "devanagari": "सूत उवाच\nइत्य् उपामन्त्रितो राज्ञा गुणानुकथने हरेः\nहृषीकेशम् अनुस्मृत्य प्रतिवक्तुं प्रचक्रमे", + "transliteration": "sūta uvāca\nity upāmantrito rājñā\nguṇānukathane hareḥ\nhṛṣīkeśam anusmṛtya\nprativaktuṁ pracakrame", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sūta uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Sūta Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upāmantritaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being requested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājñā", + "meanings": [ + "by the King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-anukathane", + "meanings": [ + "in describing the transcendental attributes of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛṣīkeśam", + "meanings": [ + "the master of the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anusmṛtya", + "meanings": [ + "properly remembering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prativaktum", + "meanings": [ + "just to reply" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pracakrame", + "meanings": [ + "executed the preliminaries." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Sūta Gosvāmī said, When Śukadeva Gosvāmī was thus requested by the King to describe the creative energy of the Personality of Godhead, the former then systematically remembered the master of the senses [Śrī Kṛṣṇa], and to reply properly he spoke thus.", + "purport": [ + "The devotees of the Lord, while delivering some speeches and describing the transcendental attributes of the Lord, do not think that they can do anything independently.

The paramahaṁsas are generally found both among the impersonalists and the devotees, but according to Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (as it is clearly stated by Kuntīdevī), pure bhakti-yoga is understood by the paramahaṁsas, and she has especially mentioned that the Lord descends (paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ) especially to award bhakti-yoga to the paramahaṁsas. So ultimately the paramahaṁsas, in the true sense of the term, are unalloyed devotees of the Lord. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has directly accepted that the highest destination is bhakti-yoga, by which one accepts the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Those who accept the path of bhakti-yoga are the factual paramahaṁsas.", + "Since the Lord is very kind to everyone, the impersonalists, who accept bhakti as the means of being merged in the existence of the Lord in His impersonal brahmajyoti, are also awarded their desired destination. He has assured everyone in the Bhagavad-gītā: ye yathā māṁ prapadyante. According to Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī, there are two classes of paramahaṁsas, namely the brahmānandīs (impersonalists) and the premānandīs (devotees), and both are awarded their desired destinations, although the premānandīs are more fortunate than the brahmānandīs. But both the brahmānandīs and the premānandīs are transcendentalists, and they have nothing to do with the inferior material nature full of the existential miseries of life." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/14.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/14.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f8fab7df --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/14.json @@ -0,0 +1,115 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 14, + "reference": "SB 2.4.14", + "devanagari": "नमो नमस्ते ऽस्त्व् ऋषभाय सात्वतां विदूरकाष्ठाय मुहुः कुयोगिनाम्\nनिरस्तसाम्यातिशयेन राधसा स्वधामनि ब्रह्मणि रंस्यते नमः", + "transliteration": "namo namas te 'stv ṛṣabhāya sātvatāṁ\nvidūra-kāṣṭhāya muhuḥ ku-yoginām\nnirasta-sāmyātiśayena rādhasā\nsva-dhāmani brahmaṇi raṁsyate namaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "namaḥ namas te", + "meanings": [ + "let me offer my obeisances unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "astu", + "meanings": [ + "are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣabhāya", + "meanings": [ + "unto the great associate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sātvatām", + "meanings": [ + "of the members of the Yadu dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidūra-kāṣṭhāya", + "meanings": [ + "one who is far from mundane wranglers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ku-yoginām", + "meanings": [ + "of the nondevotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirasta", + "meanings": [ + "vanquished" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sāmya", + "meanings": [ + "equal status" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atiśayena", + "meanings": [ + "by greatness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rādhasā", + "meanings": [ + "by opulence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-dhāmani", + "meanings": [ + "in His own abode" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmaṇi", + "meanings": [ + "in the spiritual sky" + ] + }, + { + "word": "raṁsyate", + "meanings": [ + "enjoys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "I do bow down." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto Him who is the associate of the members of the Yadu dynasty and who is always a problem for the nondevotees.

And by His impersonal feature He expands the rays of the brahmajyoti, which is limitless and all-pervasive. Part of this all-pervasive brahmajyoti, which is compared with the sun rays, is covered by the darkness of mahat-tattva, and this insignificant part is known as the material world. In this material world there are innumerable universes like the one we can experience, and in each of them there are hundreds of thousands of planets like the one we are inhabiting. The mundaners are more or less captivated by the unlimited expansion of the rays of the Lord, but the devotees are concerned more with His personal form, from which everything is emanating (janmādy asya yataḥ). As the sun rays are concentrated in the sun disc, so the brahmajyoti is concentrated in Goloka Vṛndāvana, the topmost spiritual planet in the spiritual sky. The immeasurable spiritual sky is full of spiritual planets, named Vaikuṇṭhas, far beyond the material sky. The mundaners have no sufficient information of even the mundane sky, so what can they think of the spiritual sky? Therefore the mundaners are always far, far away from Him. Even if they are able to manufacture some machine, in the future, whose speed may be accelerated to the velocity of the air or mind, the mundaners will still be unable to imagine reaching the planets in the spiritual sky.

Similarly, remembrance and prayers also can give us the desired result if they are properly done under expert guidance. One should not concoct forms of devotional service. One may worship the form of the Lord in a temple, or one may impersonally offer the Lord devotional prayers in a mosque or a church. One is sure to get free from the reactions of sins, provided one is very careful about not committing sins willingly in expectation of getting free from the reactions of sins by worshiping in the temple or by offering prayers in the church.

Just give up all other ways of religiosity and exclusively surrender unto Me and believe that I will protect you from your sinful acts, and I shall deliver you. Do not worry any more.\"", + "Persons who are intelligent take serious notice of this last instruction of the Lord. Knowledge of the self is the first step in spiritual realization, which is called confidential knowledge, and a step further is God realization, which is called more confidential knowledge. The culmination of the knowledge of Bhagavad-gītā is God realization, and when one attains this stage of God realization, he naturally, voluntarily becomes a devotee of the Lord to render Him loving transcendental service. This devotional service of the Lord is always based on love of God and is distinguished from the nature of routine service as prescribed in karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga or dhyāna-yoga. In the Bhagavad-gītā there are different instructions for such men of different categories, and there are various descriptions for varṇāśrama-dharma, sannyāsa-dharma, yati-dharma, the renounced order of life, controlling the senses, meditation, perfection of mystic powers, etc., but one who fully surrenders unto the Lord to render service unto Him, out of spontaneous love for Him, factually assimilates the essence of all knowledge described in the Vedas. One who adopts this method very skillfully attains perfection of life at once. And this perfection of human life is called brahma-gati, or the progressive march in spiritual existence. As enunciated by Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī on the basis of Vedic assurances, brahma-gati means to attain a spiritual form as good as that of the Lord, and in that form the liberated living being eternally lives on one of the spiritual planets situated in the spiritual sky. Attainment of this perfection of life is easily available to a pure devotee of the Lord without undergoing any difficult method of perfection. Such a devotional life is full of kīrtana, smaraṇa, īkṣaṇa, etc., as mentioned in a previous verse. One must therefore adopt this simple way of devotional life in order to attain the highest perfection available in any category of the human form of life in any part of the world.

Without such dovetailing, all such qualities become sources of trouble for people in general. Everything can either be utilized for one's own sense gratification or in the service of one other than oneself. There are two kinds of self-interest also, namely personal selfishness and extended selfishness. But there is no qualitative difference between personal and extended selfishness. Theft for personal interest or for the family interest is of the same quality—namely, criminal. A thief pleading not guilty because of committing theft not for personal interest but for the interest of society or country has never been excused by the established law of any country. People in general have no knowledge that the self-interest of a living being attains perfection only when such an interest coincides with the interest of the Lord. For example, what is the interest of maintaining body and soul together? One earns money for maintenance of the body (personal or social), but unless there is God consciousness, unless the body is being properly maintained to realize one's relation with God, all good efforts to maintain body and soul together are similar to the attempts of the animals to maintain the body and soul together. The purpose of maintaining the human body is different from that of the animals. Similarly, advancement of learning, economic development, philosophical research, study in the Vedic literature or even the execution of pious activities (like charity, opening of hospitals, the distribution of food grains, etc.) should be done in relation with the Lord. The aim of all such acts and endeavors must be for the pleasure of the Lord and not for the satisfaction of any other identity, individual or collective (saṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam). In the Bhagavad-gītā also the same principle is confirmed (Bg. 9.27), and it is said there that whatever we may give in charity and whatever we may observe in austerity must be given over to the Lord or be done on His account only. The expert leaders of a godless human civilization cannot bring about a fruitful result in all their different attempts at educational advancement or economic development unless they are God conscious. And to become God conscious one has to hear about the all-auspicious Lord, as He is described in literature like the Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9200864e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,139 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 2.4.18", + "devanagari": "किरातहूणान्ध्रपुलिन्दपुल्कशा आभीरशुम्भा यवनाः खसादयः\nये ऽन्ये च पापा यदपाश्रयाश्रयाः शुध्यन्ति तस्मै प्रभविष्णवे नमः", + "transliteration": "kirāta-hūṇāndhra-pulinda-pulkaśā\nābhīra-śumbhā yavanāḥ khasādayaḥ\nye 'nye ca pāpā yad-apāśrayāśrayāḥ\nśudhyanti tasmai prabhaviṣṇave namaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kirāta", + "meanings": [ + "a province of old Bhārata" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hūṇa", + "meanings": [ + "part of Germany and Russia" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āndhra", + "meanings": [ + "a province of Southern India" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pulinda", + "meanings": [ + "the Greeks" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pulkaśāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "another province" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ābhīra", + "meanings": [ + "part of old Sindh" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śumbhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "another province" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yavanāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Turks" + ] + }, + { + "word": "khasa-ādayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Mongolian Province" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "even those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anye", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāpāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "addicted to sinful acts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apāśraya-āśrayāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "having taken shelter of the devotees of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śudhyanti", + "meanings": [ + "at once purified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmai", + "meanings": [ + "unto Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhaviṣṇave", + "meanings": [ + "unto the powerful Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "my respectful obeisances." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Kirāta, Hūṇa, Āndhra, Pulinda, Pulkaśa, Ābhīra, Śumbha, Yavana and the Khasa races and even others who are addicted to sinful acts can be purified by taking shelter of the devotees of the Lord due to His being the supreme power.

It is mentioned that this province was situated on the River Sarasvatī in Sind. The modern Sind Province formerly extended on the other side of the Arabian Sea, and all the inhabitants of that province were known as the Ābhīras.

Later on this proved to be true, as it was proved in the case of the Pulindas. On behalf of the Pulindas, Alexander the Great conquered India, and on behalf of the Ābhīras, Mohammed Ghori conquered India. These Ābhīras were also formerly kṣatriyas within the brahminical culture, but they gave up the connection.

Even those who are constantly engaged in sinful acts are all corrigible to the standard of perfect human beings if they take shelter of the devotees of the Lord. Jesus Christ and Hajrat Mohammed, two powerful devotees of the Lord, have done tremendous service on behalf of the Lord on the surface of the globe. And from the version of Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī it appears that instead of running a godless civilization in the present context of the world situation, if the leadership of world affairs is entrusted to the devotees of the Lord, for which a worldwide organization under the name and style of The International Society for Krishna Consciousness has already been started, then by the grace of the Almighty Lord there can be a thorough change of heart in human beings all over the world because the devotees of the Lord are able authorities to effect such a change by purifying the dust-worn minds of the people in general. The politicians of the world may remain in their respective positions because the pure devotees of the Lord are not interested in political leadership or diplomatic implications. The devotees are interested only in seeing that the people in general are not misguided by political propaganda and in seeing that the valuable life of a human being is not spoiled in following a type of civilization which is ultimately doomed. If the politicians would, therefore, be guided by the good counsel of the devotees, then certainly there would be a great change in the world situation by the purifying propaganda of the devotees, as shown by Lord Caitanya. As Śukadeva Gosvāmī began his prayer by discussing the word yat-kīrtanam, so also Lord Caitanya recommended that simply by glorifying the Lord's holy name, a tremendous change of heart can take place by which the complete misunderstanding between the human nations, created by politicians, can at once be extinguished. And after the extinction of the fire of misunderstanding, other profits will follow. The destination is to go back home, back to Godhead, as we have several times discussed in these pages.", + "According to the cult of devotion, generally known as the Vaiṣṇava cult, there is no bar for anyone to advance in the matter of God realization. A Vaiṣṇava is powerful enough to turn into a Vaiṣṇava even the Kirāta, etc., as above mentioned. In the Bhagavad-gītā also it is said by the Lord (Bg. 9.32) that there is no bar to becoming a devotee of the Lord (even for those who are low-born, or women, śūdras or vaiśyas), and by becoming a devotee everyone is eligible to return home, back to Godhead. The only qualification is that one take shelter of a pure devotee of the Lord who has thorough knowledge in the transcendental science of Kṛṣṇa (Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam). Anyone from any part of the world who becomes well conversant in the science of Kṛṣṇa becomes a pure devotee and a spiritual master for the general mass of people and may reclaim them by purification of heart. A person, though he be even the most sinful man, can at once be purified by systematic contact with a pure Vaiṣṇava. A Vaiṣṇava, therefore, can accept a bona fide disciple from any part of the world without any consideration of caste and creed and promote him by regulative principles to the status of a pure Vaiṣṇava who is transcendental to brahminical culture. The system of caste, or varṇāśrama-dharma, is no longer regular even amongst the so-called followers of the system. Nor is it now possible to reestablish the institutional function in the present context of social, political and economic revolution. Without any reference to the particular custom of a country, one can be accepted to the Vaiṣṇava cult spiritually, and there is no hindrance in the transcendental process. So by the order of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the cult of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or the Bhagavad-gītā can be preached all over the world, reclaiming all persons willing to accept the transcendental cult. Such cultural propaganda by the devotees will certainly be accepted by all persons who are reasonable and inquisitive, without any particular bias for the custom of the country. The Vaiṣṇava never accepts another Vaiṣṇava on the basis of birthright, just as he never thinks of the Deity of the Lord in a temple as idol worship. And to remove all doubts in this connection, Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī has invoked the blessings of the Lord, who is all-powerful (prabhaviṣṇave namah). As the all-powerful Lord accepts the humble service of His devotee in devotional activities of the arcanā, His form as the worshipable Deity in the temple, similarly the body of a pure Vaiṣṇava changes transcendentally at once by giving himself up to the service of the Lord and training by a qualified Vaiṣṇava. The injunction of Vaiṣṇava regulation in this connection runs as follows: (arcye viṣṇau śilādhīr guruṣu nara-matir vaiṣṇave jāti-buddhiḥ śrī-viṣṇor nāmni śabda-sāmānya-buddhiḥ, etc) \"One should not consider the Deity of the Lord as worshiped in the temple to be an idol, nor should one consider the authorized spiritual master as an ordinary man. Nor should one consider a pure Vaiṣṇava to belong to a particular caste, etc.\"", + "The conclusion is that the Lord, being all-powerful, can, under any and every circumstance, accept anyone from any part of the world, either personally or through His bona fide manifestation as the spiritual master. Lord Caitanya accepted many devotees from communities other than the varṇāśramites, and He Himself declared, to teach us, that He does not belong to any caste or social order of life, but that He is the eternal servant of the servant of the Lord who maintains the damsels of Vṛndāvana (Lord Kṛṣṇa) [Padyāvalī 74].

Everyone is searching for eternal peace or eternal life, and with an aim to this destination everyone is either studying Vedic scriptures or other religious scriptures or undergoing severe austerity as empiric philosophers, as mystics yogīs or as unalloyed devotees, etc. But the Supreme Lord is perfectly realized by the devotees only because they are above all pretensions. Those who are on the path of self-realization are generally classified as karmīs, jñānīs, yogīs, or devotees of the Lord. The karmīs, who are much attracted by the fruitive activities of the Vedic rituals, are called bhukti-kāmī, or those who desire liberation from material existence. The mystic yogīs, who practice different types of austerities for attainment of eight kinds of material perfections and who ultimately meet the Supersoul Paramātmā in trance, are called siddhi-kāmī, or those who desire the perfection of becoming finer than the finest, heavier than the heaviest, and who desire to get everything desired, to have control over everyone, to create everything liked, etc. All these are capacities of a powerful yogī. But the devotees of the Lord do not want anything like that for self-satisfaction. They want only to serve the Lord because the Lord is great, and as living entities they are eternally subordinate parts and parcels of the Lord. This perfect realization of the self by the devotee helps him to become desireless, to desire nothing for his personal self, and thus the devotees are called niṣkāmī, without any desire. A living entity, by his constitutional position, cannot be void of all desires (the bhukti-kāmī, mukti-kāmī and siddhi-kāmī all desire something for personal satisfaction), but the niṣkāmī devotees of the Lord desire everything for the satisfaction of the Lord. They are completely dependent on the orders of the Lord and are always ready to discharge their duty for the satisfaction of the Lord.", + "In the beginning Arjuna placed himself as one of those who desire self-satisfaction, for he desired not to fight in the Battle of Kurukṣetra, but to make him desireless the Lord preached the Bhagavad-gītā, in which the ways of karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga, haṭha-yoga, and also bhakti-yoga were explained. Because Arjuna was without any pretension, he changed his decision and satisfied the Lord by agreeing to fight (kariṣye vacanaṁ tava), and thus he became desireless.", + "The examples of Brahmā and Lord Śiva are specifically cited here because Brahmājī, Lord Śiva, Śrīmatī Lakṣmījī and the four Kumāras, Sanaka, Sanātana, etc., are leaders of the four desireless Vaiṣṇava sampradāyas. They are all freed from all pretensions. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī interprets the word gata-vyalīkaiḥ as projjhita-kaitavaiḥ, or those who are freed from all pretensions (the unalloyed devotees only). In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said: bhukti-mukti-siddhi-kāmī, sakali 'aśānta' kṛṣṇa-bhakta—niṣkāma, ata eva 'śānta.' Those who are after fruitive results for their pious activities, those who desire salvation and identity with the Supreme, and those who desire material perfections of mystic powers are all restless because they want something for themselves, but the devotee is completely peaceful because he has no demand for himself and is always ready to serve the desire of the Lord. The conclusion is, therefore, that the Lord is for everyone because no one can achieve the result of his respective desires without being sanctioned by Him, but as stated by the Lord in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 8.9), all such results are awarded by Him only, for the Lord is adhīśvara (the original controller) of everyone, namely the Vedāntists, the great karma-kāṇḍīyas, the great religious leaders, the great performers of austerity and all who are striving for spiritual advancement.

Everyone is seeking the favor of the goddess of fortune, but they do not know that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the beloved husband of all goddesses of fortune. In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said that the Lord, in His transcendental abode of Goloka Vṛndāvana, is accustomed to herding the surabhi cows and is served there by hundreds of thousands of goddesses of fortune. All these goddesses of fortune are manifestations of His transcendental pleasure potency (hlādinī-śakti) in His internal energy, and when the Lord manifested Himself on this earth He partially displayed the activities of His pleasure potency in His rāsa-līlā just to attract the conditioned souls who are all after the phantasmagoria pleasure potency in degraded sex enjoyment. The pure devotees of the Lord like Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who is completely detached from the abominable sex life of the material world, discussed this act of the Lord's pleasure potency certainly not in relation to sex, but to relish a transcendental taste inconceivable by the mundaners who are after sex life. Sex life in the mundane world is the root-cause of being conditioned by the shackles of illusion, and certainly Śukadeva Gosvāmī was never interested in the sex life of the mundane world. Nor does the manifestation of the Lord's pleasure potency have any connection with such degraded things. Lord Caitanya was a strict sannyāsī, so much so that He did not allow any woman to come near Him, not even to bow down and offer respects. He never even heard the prayers of the devadāsīs offered in the temple of Jagannātha because a sannyāsī is forbidden to hear songs sung by the fair sex. Yet even in the rigid position of a sannyāsī He recommended the mode of worship preferred by the gopīs of Vṛndāvana as the topmost loving service possible to be rendered to the Lord. And Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī is the principal head of all such goddesses of fortune, and therefore She is the pleasure counterpart of the Lord and is nondifferent from Kṛṣṇa.", + "In the Vedic rituals there are recommendations for performing different types of sacrifice in order to achieve the greatest benefit of life. Such benedictions as the result of performing great sacrifices are, after all, some favors given by the goddess of fortune, and the Lord, being the husband or lover of the goddess of fortune, factually is the Lord of all sacrifices also. And He is the final enjoyer of all kinds of yajña; therefore Yajñapati is another name of Lord Viṣṇu. It is recommended in the Bhagavad-gītā that everything should be done for the Yajñapati (yajñārthe kuru karmāṇi), otherwise acts will be the cause of conditioning by the law of material nature. Those who are not freed from all misconceptions (vyalīkam) perform sacrifices to please the minor demigods, but the devotees of the Lord know very well that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the supreme enjoyer of all performances of sacrifices; therefore they perform the saṅkīrtana-yajña (śravanaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ), especially recommended in this age of Kali. In Kali-yuga, performance of other types of sacrifice is not feasible due to insufficient arrangement and inexpert priesthood.", + "We have information from the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 3.9-10) that Lord Brahmā, after giving rebirth to the conditioned souls within the universe, instructed them to perform sacrifices and to lead a prosperous life. By such sacrificial performances the conditioned souls will never be in difficulty to keep body and soul together. Ultimately they can purify their existence. They will find natural promotion into spiritual existence, the real identity of the living being. A conditioned soul should never give up the practice of sacrifice, charity and austerity, in any circumstances. The aim of all such sacrifices is to please the Yajñapati, the Personality of Godhead; therefore the Lord is also Prajāpati. According to the Kaṭhopaniṣad, the one Lord is the leader of the innumerable living entities. The living entities are maintained by the Lord (eko bahūnāṁ yo vidadhāti kāmān). The Lord is called, therefore, the supreme bhūta-bhṛt, or maintainer of all living beings.", + "Living beings are endowed with intelligence proportionately in terms of their previous activities. All living beings are not equally endowed with the same quality of intelligence because behind such development of intelligence the control of the Lord is there, as is declared in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 15.15). As Paramātmā, Supersoul, the Lord is living in everyone's heart, and from Him only one's power of remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness follows (mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca). One person can sharply remember past activities by the grace of the Lord while others cannot. One is highly intelligent by the grace of the Lord, and one is a fool by the same control. Therefore the Lord is dhiyām patiḥ, or the Lord of intelligence.", + "The conditioned souls strive to become lords of the material world. Everyone is trying to lord it over the material nature by applying his highest degree of intelligence. This misuse of intelligence by the conditioned soul is called madness. One's full intelligence should be applied to get free from the material clutches. But the conditioned soul, due to madness only, engages his full energy and intelligence in sense gratification, and to achieve this end of life he willfully commits all sorts of misdeeds, and the result is that instead of attaining unconditional life of full freedom, the mad conditioned soul is entangled again and again in different types of bondage in material bodies. Everything that we see in the material manifestation is but the creation of the Lord. Therefore He is the real proprietor of everything in the universes. The conditioned soul can enjoy a fragment of this material creation under the control of the Lord but not self-sufficiently. That is the instruction in the Īśopaniṣad. One should be satisfied with things which are awarded by the Lord of the universe. It is out of madness only that one tries to encroach upon another's share of material possession.", + "The Lord of the universe, out of His causeless mercy upon the conditioned souls, descends by His own energy (ātma-māyā) to reestablish the eternal relation of the conditioned souls with the Lord. He instructs all to surrender unto Him instead of falsely claiming to be enjoyers for a certain limit under His control. When He so descends He proves how much greater is His ability to enjoy, and He exhibits His power of enjoyment by (for instance) marrying 16,000 wives at once. The conditioned soul is very proud of becoming the husband of even one wife, but the Lord laughs, and so the intelligent man can just know who is the real husband. Factually, the Lord is the husband of all women in the creation of the Lord, but a conditioned soul under the control of the Lord feels proud to become the husband of one or two wives.", + "All these qualifications as the different types of pati mentioned in this verse are meant for Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī has therefore specially mentioned the pati and gati of the Yadu dynasty. The members of the Yadu dynasty knew that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is everything, and all of them intended to return to Lord Kṛṣṇa after He had finished His transcendental pastimes on the earth.

A living being is sufficiently potent to possess knowledge from the Lord in the proportion of 50/64, or 78% of the full knowledge acquirable. The living being, being constitutionally part and parcel of the Lord, is unable to assimilate all the knowledge that the Lord possesses Himself. In the conditioned state, the living being is subject to forget everything after a change of body known as death. This potent knowledge is again inspired by the Lord from within the heart of every living being, and it is known as the awakening of knowledge, for it is comparable to awakening from sleep or unconsciousness. This awakening of knowledge is under full control of the Lord, and therefore we find in the practical world different grades of knowledge in different persons. This awakening of knowledge is neither an automatic nor a material interaction. The supply source is the Lord Himself (dhiyām patiḥ), for even Brahmā is also subjected to this regulation of the supreme creator. In the beginning of the creation, Brahmā is born first without any father and mother because before Brahmā there were no other living beings. Brahmā is born from the lotus which grows from the abdomen of the Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. and therefore he is known as Aja. This Brahmā or Aja is also a living being, part and parcel of the Lord, but being the most pious devotee of the Lord, Brahmā is inspired by the Lord to create, subsequent to the main creation by the Lord, through the agency of material nature. Therefore neither the material nature nor Brahmā is independent of the Lord. The material scientists can merely observe the reactions of the material nature without understanding the direction behind such activities, as the child can see the action of electricity without any knowledge of the powerhouse engineer. This imperfect knowledge of the material scientist is due to a poor fund of knowledge. The Vedic knowledge was therefore first impregnated within Brahmā, and it appears that Brahmā distributed the Vedic knowledge. Brahmā is undoubtedly the speaker of the Vedic knowledge, but actually he was inspired by the Lord to receive such transcendental knowledge, as it directly descends from the Lord. The Vedas are therefore called apauruṣeya, or not imparted by any created being. Before the creation the Lord was there (nārāyaṇaḥ paro 'vyaktāt), and therefore the words spoken by the Lord are vibrations of transcendental sound. There is a gulf of difference between the two qualities of sound, namely prākṛta and aprākṛta. The physicist can only deal with the prākṛta sound or sounds vibrated in the material sky, and therefore we must know that the Vedic sounds recorded in symbolic expressions cannot be understood by anyone within the universe unless and until one is inspired by the vibration of supernatural (aprākṛta) sound, which descends in the chain of disciplic succession from the Lord to Brahmā, from Brahmā to Nārada, from Nārada to Vyāsa and so on. No mundane scholar can translate or reveal the true import of the Vedic mantras (hymns). They cannot be understood unless one is inspired or initiated by the authorized spiritual master. The original spiritual master is the Lord Himself, and the succession comes down through the sources of paramparā, as is clearly stated in the Fourth Chapter of the Bhagavad-gītā. So unless one receives the transcendental knowledge from the authorized paramparā, one should be considered useless (viphala-mataḥ), even though one may be greatly qualified in the mundane advancements of arts or science.", + "Śukadeva Gosvāmī is praying from the Lord by dint of being inspired from within by the Lord so that he could rightly explain the facts and figures of creation as inquired by Mahārāja Parīkṣit.

The devotee always thinks of himself as instrumental for anything successfully carried out, and he declines to take credit for anything done by himself. The godless atheist wants to take all credit for activities, without knowing that even a blade of grass cannot move without the sanction of the Supreme Spirit, the Personality of Godhead. Śukadeva Gosvāmī therefore wants to move by the direction of the Supreme Lord, who inspired Brahmā to speak the Vedic wisdom. The truths described, in the Vedic literatures are neither theories of mundane imagination nor are they ficticious, as the less intelligent class of men sometimes think. The Vedic truths are all perfect descriptions of the factual truth without any mistake or illusion, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī wants to present the truths of creation not as a metaphysical theory of philosophical speculation, but as the actual facts and figures of the subject, since he would be dictated to by the Lord exactly in the same manner as Brahmājī was inspired. As stated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 15.15), the Lord is Himself the father of the Vedānta knowledge, and it is He only who knows the factual purport of the Vedānta philosophy. So there is no greater truth than the principles of religion mentioned in the Vedas. Such Vedic knowledge or religion is disseminated by authorities like Śukadeva Gosvāmī because he is a humble devotional servitor of the Lord who has no desire to become a self-appointed interpreter without authority. That is the way of explaining the Vedic knowledge, technically known as the paramparā system, or descending process.", + "The intelligent man can see without mistake that any material creation (either one's own body or a fruit or flower) cannot beautifully grow up without the spiritual touch. The greatest intelligent man of the world or the greatest man of science can present everything very beautifully only insofar as the spirit life is there or insomuch as the spiritual touch is there. Therefore the source of all truths is the Supreme Spirit, and not gross matter as it is ill-conceived by the gross materialist. We get information from the Vedic literature that the Lord Himself first of all entered the vacuum of the material universe, and thus everything gradually developed one after another. Similarly, the Lord is situated as localized Paramātmā in every individual being; hence everything is done by Him very beautifully. The sixteen principal creative elements, namely earth, water, fire, air, sky, and the eleven sense organs, first developed from the Lord Himself and were thereby shared by the living entities. Thus the material elements were created for the enjoyment of the living entities. The beautiful arrangement behind all material manifestations is therefore made possible by the energy of the Lord, and the individual living entity can pray to the Lord only for its proper understanding. Since the Lord is the supreme entity, different from Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the prayer can be offered to Him. The Lord helps the living entity to enjoy material creation, but He is aloof from such false enjoyment. Śukadeva prays for the mercy of the Lord, not only for being helped personally in presenting the truth, but also for helping others to whom he would like to speak." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/24.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/24.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a5aaad11 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/04/verses/24.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 24, + "reference": "SB 2.4.24", + "devanagari": "नमस्तस्मै भगवते वासुदेवाय वेधसे\nपपुर्ज्ञानम् अयं सौम्या यन्मुखाम्बुरुहासवम्", + "transliteration": "namas tasmai bhagavate\nvāsudevāya vedhase\npapur jñānam ayaṁ saumyā\nyan-mukhāmburuhāsavam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "my obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmai", + "meanings": [ + "unto him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavate", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsudevāya", + "meanings": [ + "unto Vāsudeva or His incarnations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vedhase", + "meanings": [ + "the compiler of the Vedic literatures" + ] + }, + { + "word": "papuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "drunk" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jñānam", + "meanings": [ + "knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayam", + "meanings": [ + "this Vedic knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saumyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the devotees, especially the consorts of Lord Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "from whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukha-amburuha", + "meanings": [ + "the lotuslike mouth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsavam", + "meanings": [ + "nectar from this mouth." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "I offer my respectful obeisances unto the incarnation of Vāsudeva, Śrīla Vyāsadeva, who compiled the Vedic scriptures.

Such music, dance and decorations enjoyed by the Lord are certainly not anything mundane, because the Lord is addressed in the very beginning as para, or transcendental.

This long duration of life may not be believed by \"the frog in the well,\" but persons who have a realization of the truths mentioned in the Bhagavad-gītā accept the existence of a great personality who creates the variegatedness of the complete universe.

The questions may be asked why Nāradajī was not aware of the Supreme Lord and why he misconceived Brahmājī as the Supreme Lord, although factually he was not so. A liberated soul is never bewildered by such a mistaken idea, so why did Nāradajī ask all those questions just like an ordinary man with a poor fund of knowledge? There was such bewilderment in Arjuna also, although he is eternally the associate of the Lord. Such bewilderment in Arjuna or in Nārada takes place by the will of the Lord so that other nonliberated persons may realize the real truth and knowledge of the Lord. The doubt arising in the mind of Nārada about Brahmājī's becoming all-powerful is a lesson for the frogs in the well, that they may not be bewildered in misconceiving the identity of the Personality of Godhead (even by comparison with a personality like Brahmā, so what to speak of ordinary men who falsely pose themselves as God or an incarnation of God). The Supreme Lord is always the Supreme, and as we have tried to establish many times in these purports, no living being, even up to the standard of Brahmā, can claim to be one with the Lord. One should not be misled when people worship a great man as God after his death as a matter of hero worship. There were many kings like Lord Rāmacandra, the King of Ayodhyā, but none of them are mentioned as God in the revealed scriptures. To become a good king is not necessarily the qualification of becoming Lord Rāma, but to be a great personality like Kṛṣṇa is the qualification of becoming the Personality of Godhead. If we scrutinize the characters who took part in the Battle of Kurukṣetra, we may find that Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was no less a pious king than Lord Rāmacandra, and by character study Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira was a better moralist than Lord Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa asked Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira to lie, but Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira protested. But that does not mean that Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira could be equal to Lord Rāmacandra or Lord Kṛṣṇa. The great authorities have estimated Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira to be a pious man, but they have accepted Lord Rāma or Kṛṣṇa as the Personality of Godhead. The Lord is therefore a different identity in all circumstances, and no idea of anthropomorphism can be applied there.

Lord Kṛṣṇa is the background of the brahmajyoti (brahmaṇe hi pratiṣṭhāham). In the Nirukti, or Vedic dictionary, the import of pratiṣṭhā is mentioned as that which establishes. So the brahmajyoti is not independent or self-sufficient. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is ultimately the creator of the brahmajyoti, mentioned in this verse as sva-rociṣā, or the effulgence of the transcendental body of the Lord. This brahmajyoti is all-pervading, and all creation is made possible by its potential power; therefore the Vedic hymns declare that everything that exists is being sustained by the brahmajyoti (sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma). Therefore the potential seed of all creation is the brahmajyoti, and the same brahmajyoti, unlimited and unfathomed, is established by the Lord.

Brahmā cannot create the seeds, but he can manifest the seed into a tree, just as a gardener helps the plants and orchards to grow by the watering process. The example cited here of the sun is very appropriate. In the material world the sun is the cause of all illumination: fire, electricity, the rays of the moon, etc. All luminaries in the sky are creations of the sun, the sun is the creation of the brahmajyoti, and the brahmajyoti is the effulgence of the Lord.

None of them are separate from the fire—all of them combine together to be called fire; similarly, all phenomenal manifestations, as well as the effulgence of the body of Vāsudeva, are His impersonal features, whereas He eternally exists in His transcendental form called sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ, distinct from all conceptions of the material ingredients mentioned above." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/15.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/15.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..85489814 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/15.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 15, + "reference": "SB 2.5.15", + "devanagari": "नारायणपरा वेदा देवा नारायणांगजाः\nनारायणपरा लोका नारायणपरा मखाः", + "transliteration": "nārāyaṇa-parā vedā\ndevā nārāyaṇāṅga-jāḥ\nnārāyaṇa-parā lokā\nnārāyaṇa-parā makhāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "is the cause and is meant for" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vedāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅga-jāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "assisting hands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "for the sake of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "just please Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "makhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all sacrifices." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Vedic literatures are made by and are meant for the Supreme Lord, the demigods are also meant for serving the Lord as parts of the body, the different planets are also meant for the sake of the Lord, and different sacrifices are performed just to please Him.", + "purport": [ + "According to the Vedānta-sūtras (śāstra-yonitvāt), the Supreme Lord is the author of all revealed scriptures, and all revealed scriptures are for knowing the Supreme Lord. Vedas means knowledge that leads to the Lord. The Vedas are made just to revive the forgotten consciousness of the conditioned souls, and any literature which is not meant for reviving God consciousness is rejected at once by the Nārāyaṇa-para devotees. Such deluding books of knowledge, not having Nārāyaṇa as their aim, are not at all knowledge but are the playgrounds for crows who are interested in the rejected refuse of the world. Any book of knowledge (science or art) must lead to the knowledge of Nārāyaṇa; otherwise it must be rejected. That is the way of advancement of knowledge. The Supreme worshipable Deity is Nārāyaṇa. The demigods are recommended secondarily for worship in relation to Nārāyaṇa because the demigods are assisting hands in the management of the universal affairs. As the officers of a kingdom are respected due to their relation to the king, similarly the demigods are worshiped due to their relation to the Lord. Without the Lord's relation, worship of the demigods is unauthorized (avidhi-pūrvakam), just as it is improper to water the leaves and branches of a tree without watering its root. Therefore the demigods are also dependent on Nārāyaṇa. The lokas, or different planets, are attractive because there are different varieties of life and bliss partially representing the sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha. Everyone wants the eternal life of bliss and knowledge. In the material world such eternal life of bliss and knowledge is progressively realized in the upper planets, but after reaching there one is inclined to achieve further progress along the path back to Godhead. Duration of life, with a proportionate quantity of bliss and knowledge, may be increased from one planet to another. One can increase the duration of life to thousands and hundreds of thousands of years in different planets, but nowhere is there eternal life. But one who can reach the highest planet of Brahmā can aspire to reach the planets in the spiritual sky where life is eternal. Therefore, the progressive journey from one planet to another is culminated by reaching the supreme planet of the Lord (mad-dhāma) where life is eternal and full of bliss and knowledge.

Impersonal Brahman is situated on the person of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and as such, Brahman is the glorification of the Personality of the Godhead. This is confirmed both in the Bhagavad-gītā and in the Matsya Purāṇa. Gati means ultimate destination, or the last word in liberation. To be one with the impersonal brahmajyoti is not ultimate liberation, but superior to that is the sublime association of the Personality of Godhead in one of the innumerable spiritual planets in the Vaikuṇṭha sky.

The material creation is something like a cloud in the unlimited sky. The real sky is the spiritual sky, eternally filled with the rays of the brahmajyoti, and a portion of this unlimited sky is covered by the mahat-tattva cloud of the material creation in which the conditioned souls, who want to lord it against the will of the Lord, are put into play as they desire under the control of the Lord by the agency of His external energy. As the rainy season appears and disappears regularly, similarly the creation takes place and is again annihilated under the control of the Lord, as is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 8.19). So the creation and annihilation of the material worlds is a regular action of the Lord just to allow the conditioned souls to play as they like and thereby create their own fate of being differently created again in terms of their independent desires at the time of annihilation. The creation, therefore, takes place at a historical date (as we are accustomed to think of everything which has a beginning in our tiny experience). The process of creation and annihilation is called anādi, or without reference to date regarding the time the creation first took place, because the duration of a partial creation even is 86,400,000 years. The law of creation is, however, as mentioned in the Vedic literatures, that it is created at certain intervals and is again annihilated by the will of the Lord. The whole material or even the spiritual creation is a manifestation of the energy of the Lord, just as the light and heat of a fire are different manifestations of the fire's energy. The Lord therefore exists in His impersonal form by such expansion of energy, and the complete creation rests on His impersonal feature. Nonetheless He keeps Himself distinct from such creation as the pūrṇam (or complete), so no one should wrongly think that His personal feature is not existent due to His impersonal unlimited expansions. The impersonal expansion is a manifestation of His energy, and He is always in His personal feature despite His innumerable unlimited expansions of impersonal energies (Bg. 9.5-7). For human intelligence it is very difficult to conceive how the whole creation rests on His expansion of energy, but the Lord has given a very good example in the Bhagavad-gītā. It is said that although the air and the atoms rest within the huge expansion of the sky, like the resting reservoir of everything materially created, still the sky remains separately without being affected. Similarly the Supreme Lord, although He maintains everything created by His expansion of energy, always remains separate, which is accepted even by Śaṅkarācārya, the great advocate of the impersonal form of the Absolute. He says nārāyaṇaḥ paro 'vyaktāt, or Nārāyaṇa exists separately, apart from the impersonal creative energy. The whole creation thus merges within the body of transcendental Nārāyaṇa at the time of annihilation, and the creation emanates from His body again with the same unchanging categories of fate and individual nature. The individual living entities, being parts and parcels of the Lord, are sometimes described as ātmā, qualitatively one in spiritual constitution. But because such living entities are apt to be attracted to the material creation, actively and subjectively, they are therefore different from the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..eb1ea90b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,69 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 2.5.22", + "devanagari": "कालाद्गुणव्यतिकरः परिणामः स्वभावतः\nकर्मणो जन्म महतः पुरुषाधिष्ठिताद् अभूत्", + "transliteration": "kālād guṇa-vyatikaraḥ\npariṇāmaḥ sva-bhāvataḥ\nkarmaṇo janma mahataḥ\npuruṣādhiṣṭhitād abhūt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kālāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the eternal time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-vyatikaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transformation of the modes by reaction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pariṇāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transformation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-bhāvataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "creation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the mahat-tattva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣa-adhiṣṭhitāt", + "meanings": [ + "because of the puruṣa incarnation of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhūt", + "meanings": [ + "it took place." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After the incarnation of the first puruṣa (Kāraṇārṇavaśāyī Viṣṇu), the mahat-tattva, or the principles of material creation, take place, and then time is manifested, and in course of time the three qualities appear.

Brahmā is the representation of the mode of passion, and Viṣṇu is the representation of the mode of goodness, while the mode of ignorance is represented by Lord Śiva, the father of material activities. Material nature is called the mother, and the initiator for materialistic life is the father, Lord Śiva. All material creation by the living entities is therefore initiated by the mode of passion. With the advancement of the duration of life in a particular millennium, the different modes act by gradual development, and in the age of Kali (when the mode of passion is most prominent) material activities of different varieties, in the name of advancement of human civilization, take place, and the living entities become more and more involved in forgetting their real identity—the spiritual nature. By a slight cultivation of the mode of goodness, a glimpse of spiritual nature is perceived, but due to the prominence of the mode of passion, the mode of goodness becomes adulterated.

And this self-centered egoism of the materialistic living entities is the cause of their being conditioned by the other paraphernalia and continuing their bondage of material existence. In the Bhagavad-gītā this self-centered egoism is very nicely explained in the Seventh Chapter (verses 24-27). The self-centered impersonalist, without clear conception of the Personality of Godhead, concludes in his own way that the Personality of Godhead takes a material shape from His original impersonal spiritual existence for a particular mission. And this misleading conception of the Supreme Lord by the self-centered impersonalist continues, even though he is seen to be very interested in the Vedic literatures such as the Brahma-sūtras and other highly intellectual sources of knowledge. This ignorance of the personal feature of the Lord is due simply to ignorance of the mixture of different modes. The impersonalist thus cannot conceive of the Lord's eternal spiritual form of eternal knowledge, bliss and existence. The reason is that the Lord reserves the right of not exposing Himself to the nondevotee who, even after a thorough study of literature like the Bhagavad-gītā, remains an impersonalist simply by obstinacy. This obstinacy is due to the action of yogamāyā, a personal energy of the Lord that acts like an aide-de-camp by covering the vision of the obstinate impersonalist. Such a bewildered human being is described as mūḍha, or grossly ignorant, because he is unable to understand the transcendental form of the Lord as being unborn and unchangeable. If the Lord takes a form or material shape from His original impersonal feature, then it means that He is born and changeable from impersonal to personal. But He is not changeable. Nor does He ever take a new birth like a conditioned soul. The conditioned soul may take a form birth after birth due to his conditional existence in matter, but the self-centered impersonalists also, by their gross ignorance, accept the Lord as one of them because of self-centered egoism, even after so-called advancement of knowledge in the Vedānta. The Lord, being situated in the heart of every individual living entity, knows very well the tendency of such conditioned souls in terms of past, present and future, but the bewildered conditioned soul hardly can know Him in His eternal form. By the will of the Lord, therefore, the impersonalist, even after knowing the Brahman and Paramātmā features of the Lord, remains ignorant of His eternal personal feature as ever-existent Nārāyaṇa, transcendental to all material creation.", + "The cause of such gross ignorance is constant engagement by the materialistic man in the matter of artificially increasing material demands of life. To realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one has to purify the materialistic senses by devotional service. The mode of goodness, or the brahminical culture recommended in the Vedic literatures, is helpful to such spiritual realization, and thus the jñāna-śakti stage of the conditioned soul is comparatively better than the other two stages, namely dravya-śakti and kriyā-śakti. The whole material civilization is manifested by a huge accumulation of materials, or, in other words, raw materials for industrial purposes, and the industrial enterprises (kriyā-śakti) are all due to gross ignorance of spiritual life. In order to rectify this great anomaly of materialistic civilization, based on the principles of dravya-śakti and kriyā-śakti, one has to adopt the process of devotional service of the Lord by adoption of the principles of karma-yoga, mentioned in the Bhagavad-gītā as follows:", + "yat karoṣi yad aśnāsi yaj juhoṣi dadāsi yat

Manufacture of the \"necessities of life\" in factories and workshops, excessively prominent in the age of Kali or in the age of the machine, is the summit stage of the quality of darkness. Such manufacturing enterprises by the human society are in the mode of darkness because factually there is no necessity for the commodities manufactured. The human society primarily requires food for subsistance, shelter for sleeping, defense for protection and commodities for satisfaction of the senses. The senses are the practical signs of life, as will be explained in the next verse. Human civilization is meant for purifying the senses, and objects of sense satisfaction should be supplied as much as absolutely required, but not for aggravating artificial sensory needs. Food, shelter, defense and sense gratification are all needs of material existence. Otherwise, in his pure uncontaminated state of original life, the living entity has no such needs. The needs are, therefore, artificial, and in the pure state of life there are no such needs. As such, increasing the artificial needs, as is the standard of material civilization, or advancing the economic development of human society, is a sort of engagement in the darkness of knowledge. By such engagement, human energy is spoiled, because human energy is primarily meant for purifying the senses in order to be engaged in satisfying the senses of the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord, being the supreme possessor of spiritual senses, is the master of the senses, Hṛṣīkeśa. Hṛṣīka means the senses, and īśa means the master. The Lord is not the servant of the senses, or, in other words, He is not directed by the dictation of the senses, but the conditioned souls or the individual living entities are servants of the senses. They are conducted by the direction or dictation of the senses, and therefore material civilization is a kind of engagement in sense gratification only. The standard of human civilization should be to cure the disease of sense gratification, and this can be done simply by becoming an agent for satisfying the spiritual senses of the Lord. The senses are never to be stopped in their engagements, but they should be purified by engaging them in the pure service of sense gratification of the master of the senses. This is the instruction of the whole Bhagavad-gītā. Arjuna wanted first of all to satisfy his own senses by his decision not to fight with his kinsmen, etc., but Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa taught him the Bhagavad-gītā just to purify Arjuna's decision for sense gratification. Therefore Arjuna agreed to satisfy the senses of the Lord, and thus he fought the Battle of Kurukṣetra, as the Lord desired.", + "The Vedas instruct us to get out of the existence of darkness and go forward on the path of light (tamaso mā jyotir gamaya). The path of light is therefore to satisfy the senses of the Lord. Misguided men, or less intelligent men, follow the path of self-realization without any attempt to satisfy the transcendental senses of the Lord by following the path shown by Arjuna and other devotees of the Lord. On the contrary, they artificially try to stop the activities of the senses (yoga system), or they deny the transcendental senses of the Lord (jñāna system). The devotees are, however, above the yogīs and the jñānīs because pure devotees do not deny the senses of the Lord; they want to satisfy the senses of the Lord. Only because of the darkness of ignorance do the yogīs and jñānīs deny the senses of the Lord and thus artificially try to control the activities of the diseased senses. In the diseased condition of the senses there is too much engagement of the senses in increasing material needs. When one comes to see the disadvantage of aggravating the sense activities, one is called a jñānī, and when one tries to stop the activities of the senses by the practice of yogic principles, he is called a yogī, but when one is fully aware of the transcendental senses of the Lord and tries to satisfy His senses, one is called a devotee of the Lord. The devotees of the Lord neither try to deny the senses of the Lord nor do they artificially stop the actions of the senses. But they do voluntarily engage the purified senses in the service of the master of the senses, as was done by Arjuna, thereby easily attaining the perfection of satisfying the Lord, the ultimate goal of all perfection." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/31.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/31.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..32a63bd1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/31.json @@ -0,0 +1,147 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 31, + "reference": "SB 2.5.31", + "devanagari": "तैजसात्तु विकुर्वाणाद् इन्द्रियाणि दशाभवन्\nज्ञानशक्तिः क्रियाशक्तिर्बुद्धिः प्राणश्च तैजसौ\nश्रोत्रं त्वग्घ्राणदृग्जिह्वा वाग्दोर्मेढ्रांघ्रिपायवः", + "transliteration": "taijasāt tu vikurvāṇād\nindriyāṇi daśābhavan\njñāna-śaktiḥ kriyā-śaktir\nbuddhiḥ prāṇaś ca taijasau\nśrotraṁ tvag-ghrāṇa-dṛg-jihvā\nvāg-dor-meḍhrāṅghri-pāyavaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "taijasāt", + "meanings": [ + "by the passionate egoism" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikurvāṇāt", + "meanings": [ + "transformation of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "indriyāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daśa", + "meanings": [ + "ten in number" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhavan", + "meanings": [ + "generated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jñāna-śaktiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the five senses for acquiring knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kriyā-śaktiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the five senses of activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "buddhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the living energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "taijasau", + "meanings": [ + "all products of the mode of passion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrotram", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvak", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghrāṇa", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for smelling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛk", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jihvāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for tasting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāk", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for speaking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "doḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for handling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "meḍhra", + "meanings": [ + "the genitals" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅghri", + "meanings": [ + "the legs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāyavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sense for evacuating." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By further transformation of the mode of passion, the sense organs like the ear, skin, nose, eyes, tongue, mouth, hands, genitals, legs, and the outlet for evacuating, together with intelligence and living energy, are all generated.", + "purport": [ + "The living condition in the material existence depends more or less on one's intelligence and powerful living energy.

The four divisions of human society, namely the intelligent class or the brāhmaṇas, the administrative class or the kṣatriyas, the mercantile class or the vaiśyas, and the śūdra class or the laborers, are all in different parts of the body of the Lord. As such, no one is different from the Lord. The mouth of the body and the legs of the body are nondifferent constitutionally, but the mouth or the head of the body is qualitatively more important than the legs. At the same time, the mouth, the legs, the arms and the thighs are all component parts of the body. These limbs of the body of the Lord are meant to serve the complete whole. The mouth is meant for speaking and eating, the arms are meant for the protection of the body, the legs are meant for carrying the body, and the waist of the body is meant for maintaining the body. The intelligent class in society, therefore, must speak on behalf of the body, as well as accept foodstuff to satisfy the hunger of the body. The hunger of the Lord is to accept the fruits of sacrifice. The brāhmaṇas or the intelligent class must be very expert in performing such sacrifices, and the subordinate class must join in such sacrifices. To speak for the Supreme Lord means to glorify the Lord by means of propagating the. knowledge of the Lord as it is, broadcasting the factual nature of the Lord and the factual position of all other parts of the whole body. The brāhmaṇas, therefore, are required to know the Vedas or the ultimate source of knowledge. Veda means knowledge, and anta means the end of it. According to Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord is the source of everything (ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ), and thus the end of all knowledge (Vedānta) is to know the Lord, to know our relationship with Him and to act according to that relationship only. The parts of the body are related to the body; similarly, the living being must know his relationship with the Lord. The human life is especially meant for this purpose, namely to know the factual relationship of every living being with the Supreme Lord. Without knowing this relationship, the human life is spoiled. The intelligent class of men, the brāhmaṇas, are therefore especially responsible for broadcasting this knowledge of our relationship with the Lord and leading the general mass of people to the right path. The administrative class is meant for protecting the living beings so that they can serve this purpose; the mercantile class is meant for producing food grains and distributing them to the complete human society so that the whole population is given a chance to live comfortably and discharge the duties of human life. The mercantile class is also required to give protection to the cows in order to get sufficient milk and milk products, which alone can give the proper health and intelligence to maintain a civilization perfectly meant for knowledge of the ultimate truth. And the laborer class, who are neither intelligent nor powerful, can help by physical services to the other higher classes and thus be benefitted by their cooperation. Therefore the universe is a complete unit in relationship with the Lord, and without this relationship with the Lord the whole human society is disturbed and is without any peace and prosperity. This is confirmed in the Vedas: brāhmaṇo 'sya mukham āsīd, bāhū rājanyaḥ kṛtaḥ." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/38.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/38.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..12cc73be --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/05/verses/38.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 38, + "reference": "SB 2.5.38", + "devanagari": "भूर्लोकः कल्पितः पद्भ्यां भुवर्लोको ऽस्य नाभितः\nहृदा स्वर्लोक उरसा महर्लोको महात्मनः", + "transliteration": "bhūrlokaḥ kalpitaḥ padbhyāṁ\nbhuvarloko 'sya nābhitaḥ\nhṛdā svarloka urasā\nmaharloko mahātmanaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bhūḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the lower planetary systems up to the stratum of the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalpitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "it is so imagined or said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padbhyām", + "meanings": [ + "out of the legs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the upper" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the planetary system" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "of Him (the Lord's)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nābhitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the navel abdomen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdā", + "meanings": [ + "by the heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svarlokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the planetary systems occupied by the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urasā", + "meanings": [ + "by the chest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahar-lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the planetary system occupied by great sages and saints" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The lower planetary systems, up to the limit of the earthly stratum, are said to be situated in His legs.

The word sanātana is significant. This very idea of eternity is expressed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 8.20), where it is said that beyond the material creation there is the spiritual sky, where everything is eternal. Sometimes Satyaloka, the planet in which Brahmā resides, is also called Brahmaloka. But the Brahmaloka mentioned here is not the same as the Satyaloka planetary system. This Brahmaloka is eternal, whereas the Satyaloka planetary system is not eternal. And to distinguish between the two, the adjective sanātana has been used in this case. According to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, this Brahmaloka is the loka or abode of Brahma, or the Supreme Lord. In the spiritual sky all the planets are as good as the Lord Himself. The Lord is all spirit, and His name, fame, glories, qualities, pastimes, etc., are all nondifferent from Him because He is absolute. As such, the planets in the kingdom of God are also nondifferent from Him. In those planets there is no difference between the body and the soul, nor is there any influence of time as we experience it in the material world. And in addition to there being no influence of time, the planets in the Brahmaloka, due to their being spiritual, are never annihilated. All variegatedness in the spiritual planets is also one with the Lord, and therefore the Vedic aphorism ekam evādvitīyam is fully realized in that sanātana atmosphere of spiritual variegatedness. This material world is only a shadow phantasmagoria of the spiritual kingdom of the Lord, and because it is a shadow it is never eternal; the variegatedness in the material world of duality (spirit and matter) cannot be compared with that of the spiritual world. Because of a poor fund of knowledge, less intelligent persons sometimes mistake the conditions of the shadow world to be equivalent to those of the spiritual world, and thus the Lord and His pastimes in the material world are mistaken as one with the conditioned souls and their activities. The Lord condemns such less intelligent persons in the Bhagavad-gītā (9.11):", + "avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam
paraṁ bhāvam ajānanto mama bhūta-maheśvaram", + "Whenever the Lord incarnates, He does so in His full internal potency (ātma-māyā), and less intelligent persons mistake Him to be one of the material creations. Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī, therefore, rightly commenting on this verse, says that the Brahmaloka mentioned here is Vaikuṇṭha, the kingdom of God, which is sanātana or eternal and is therefore not exactly like the material creations described above.

The process of liberation is therefore easier through devotional service than by any other methods, for in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 12.5) it is said that one is subjected to various kinds of tribulations if one is impersonally attached: kleśo 'dhikataras teṣām avyaktāsakta-cetasām." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..96136883 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,97 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 2.6.2", + "devanagari": "सर्वासूनां च वायोश्च तन्नासे परमायणे\nअश्विनोर् ओषधीनां च घ्राणो मोदप्रमोदयोः", + "transliteration": "sarvāsūnāṁ ca vāyoś ca\ntan-nāse paramāyaṇe\naśvinor oṣadhīnāṁ ca\nghrāṇo moda-pramodayoḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sarva", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asūnām", + "meanings": [ + "different kinds of life air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāyoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "His" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāse", + "meanings": [ + "in the nose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parama-āyaṇe", + "meanings": [ + "in the transcendental generating center" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśvinoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Aśvinīkumāra demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "oṣadhīnām", + "meanings": [ + "of all medicinal herbs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghrāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "His smelling power" + ] + }, + { + "word": "moda", + "meanings": [ + "pleasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pramodayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "specific sport." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "His two nostrils are the generating centers of our breathing and of all other airs, His smelling powers generate the Aśvinīkumāra demigods and all kinds of medicinal herbs, and His breathing energies produce different kinds of fragrance.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f9838224 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 2.6.3", + "devanagari": "रूपाणां तेजसां चक्षुर्दिवः सूर्यस्य चाक्षिणी\nकर्णौ दिशां च तीर्थानां श्रोत्रम् आकाशशब्दयोः", + "transliteration": "rūpāṇāṁ tejasāṁ cakṣur\ndivaḥ sūryasya cākṣiṇī\nkarṇau diśāṁ ca tīrthānāṁ\nśrotram ākāśa-śabdayoḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "rūpāṇām", + "meanings": [ + "for all kinds of forms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tejasām", + "meanings": [ + "of all that is illuminating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakṣuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that which glitters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sūryasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the sun" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṣiṇī", + "meanings": [ + "the eyeballs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karṇau", + "meanings": [ + "the ears" + ] + }, + { + "word": "diśām", + "meanings": [ + "of all directions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīrthānām", + "meanings": [ + "of all the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrotram", + "meanings": [ + "the sense of hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākāśa", + "meanings": [ + "the sky" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śabdayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of all sounds." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "His eyes are the generating centers of all kinds of forms, and they glitter and illuminate.

The Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the father of all living entities. They are placed in different high and low positions according to their desires or aspirations. Some of them, as particularly mentioned above, are specifically endowed with powers by the will of the Lord. A sane person must know for certain that a living being, however powerful he may be, is neither absolute nor independent. All living beings must accept the origin of their specific power as mentioned in this verse. And if they act accordingly, then simply by discharging their respective occupational duties, they can achieve the highest perfection of life, namely eternal life, complete knowledge and inexhaustible blessings. As long as the powerful men of the world do not accept the origin of their respective powers, namely the Personality of Godhead, the actions of māyā or illusion will continue to act. The actions of māyā and illusion are such that a powerful person, misled by the illusory material energy, wrongly accepts himself as all in all, and does not develop God consciousness. As such, the false sense of egoism (namely myself and mine) has become overly prominent in the world, and there is a hard struggle for existence in the human society. The intelligent class of men, therefore, must admit the Lord as the ultimate source of all energies and thus pay tribute to the Lord for His good blessings. Simply by accepting the Lord as the supreme proprietor of everything, as He is actually so, one can achieve the highest perfection of life. Whatever a person may be in the estimation of the social order of things, if a person tries to reciprocate a feeling of love towards the Supreme Personality of Godhead and is satisfied with the blessings of the Lord, he will at once feel the highest peace of mind for which he is hankering life after life. Peace of mind, or in other words the healthy state of mind, can only be achieved when the mind is situated in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. The parts and parcels of the Lord are endowed with specific powers for rendering service unto the Lord, just as a big business magnate's sons are empowered with specific powers of administration. The obedient son of the father never goes against the will of the father and therefore passes life very peacefully in concurrence with the head of the family, the father. Similarly, the Lord being the father, all living beings should fully and satisfactorily discharge the duty and will of the father, as faithful sons. This very mentality will at once bring peace and prosperity to the human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cec722b3 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 2.6.7", + "devanagari": "विक्रमो भूर्भुवः स्वश्च क्षेमस्य शरणस्य च\nसर्वकामवरस्यापि हरेश्चरण आस्पदम्", + "transliteration": "vikramo bhūr bhuvaḥ svaś ca\nkṣemasya śaraṇasya ca\nsarva-kāma-varasyāpi\nhareś caraṇa āspadam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vikramaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "forward steps" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūḥ bhuvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the lower and upper planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "as well as of heaven" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣemasya", + "meanings": [ + "of protection of all that we have" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇasya", + "meanings": [ + "of fearlessness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-kāma", + "meanings": [ + "all that we need" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varasya", + "meanings": [ + "of all benediction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "exactly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caraṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āspadam", + "meanings": [ + "shelter." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus the forward steps of the Lord are the shelter of the three upper, lower, and heavenly planets, as well as for all that we need.

Those who are fortunate enough to have a view of the Lord from the front can realize His personal feature, whereas those who are frustrated and are thus kept on the ignorance side of the Lord, or, in other words, those who have the view of the Lord from the back side, realize Him in His impersonal feature." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7e65b1c7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 2.6.11", + "devanagari": "अव्यक्तरससिन्धूनां भूतानां निधनस्य च\nउदरं विदितं पुंसो हृदयं मनसः पदम्", + "transliteration": "avyakta-rasa-sindhūnāṁ\nbhūtānāṁ nidhanasya ca\nudaraṁ viditaṁ puṁso\nhṛdayaṁ manasaḥ padam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "avyakta", + "meanings": [ + "impersonal feature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rasa-sindhūnām", + "meanings": [ + "of the seas and oceans of water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who take birth in the material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nidhanasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the annihilation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udaram", + "meanings": [ + "His belly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viditam", + "meanings": [ + "is known by the intelligent class of men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṁsaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the great personality" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdayam", + "meanings": [ + "the heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the subtle body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padam", + "meanings": [ + "place." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The impersonal feature of the Lord is the abode of great oceans, and the resting place for the materially annihilated living entities is the belly of the Lord.

A Brahmā lives for one hundred such years and then dies. A Brahmā, who is generally a great devotee of the Lord, attains liberation after such a downfall. The universe (called the brahmāṇḍa, or the round football-like domain controlled by a Brahmā) thus becomes annihilated, and thus the inhabitants of a particular planet, or of the whole universe, are also annihilated. Avyakta, mentioned here in this verse, means the night period of Brahmā, when partial annihilation takes place and the living entities of that particular brahmāṇḍa, up to the planets of Brahmaloka, along with the big oceans, etc., are all reposed in the belly of the virāṭa-puruṣa. At the end of a Brahmā's night, the creation again takes place, and the living entities, reserved within the belly of the Lord, are let loose to play their respective parts as if being awakened from a deep slumber. Since the living entities are never destroyed, the annihilation of the material world does not annihilate the existence of the living entities, but until liberation is attained one has to accept one material body after another, again and again, repeatedly. The human life is meant for making a solution to this repeated change of bodies and thereby attaining a place in the spiritual sky where everything is eternal, blissful, and full of knowledge.

Brahmā, Nārada and all others are simultaneously one with the Lord and different from the Supreme Lord. We are all one with Him, just as the gold ornaments are one in quality with the stock gold, but the individual gold ornament is never equal in quantity with the stock gold. The stock gold is never exhausted even if there are innumerable ornaments emanating from the stock because the stock is pūrṇam, complete, and even if pūrṇam is deducted from the pūrṇam, still the supreme pūrṇam remains the same pūrṇam. This fact is inconceivable to our present imperfect senses. Lord Caitanya therefore defined His theory of philosophy as acintya (inconceivable), and as confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā as well as in the Bhāgavatam, Lord Caitanya's theory of acintya-bhedābheda-tattva is the perfect philosophy of the Absolute Truth." + ], + "verse_end": 16 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e7d6566b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 2.6.17", + "devanagari": "स्वधिष्ण्यं प्रतपन्प्राणो बहिश्च प्रतपत्य् असौ\nएवं विराजं प्रतपंस्तपत्य् अन्तर्बहिः पुमान्", + "transliteration": "svadhiṣṇyaṁ pratapan prāṇo\nbahiś ca pratapaty asau\nevaṁ virājaṁ pratapaṁs\ntapaty antar bahiḥ pumān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "svadhiṣṇyam", + "meanings": [ + "radiation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratapan", + "meanings": [ + "by expansion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "living energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "external" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratapati", + "meanings": [ + "illuminated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "the sun" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "in the same way" + ] + }, + { + "word": "virājam", + "meanings": [ + "the universal form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratapan", + "meanings": [ + "by expansion of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapati", + "meanings": [ + "enlivens" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "internally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "externally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pumān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As the sun is illuminated both internally and externally by expanding its radiation, similarly the Supreme Personality of Godhead, by expanding His universal form, maintains everything in the creation both internally and externally.", + "purport": [ + "The universal form of the Lord, or the impersonal feature of the Lord known as brahmajyoti, is clearly explained here, compared to the radiation of the sun.

Similarly, the Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Kṛṣṇa is the basis of the impersonal brahmajyoti radiation, or the impersonal feature of the Lord. This is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 14.27). So the universal form of the Lord is the secondary imagination of the impersonal form of the Lord, but the primary form of the Lord is Śyāmasundara, with two hands, playing on His eternal flute. Seventy-five percent of the expansive radiation of the Lord is manifested in the spiritual sky (tripād-vibhūti), and twenty-five percent of His personal radiation comprehends the entire expansion of the material universes.

It is said there that those planets in the spiritual sky, which comprises the seventy-five percent expansion of the internal potency of the Lord, are far, far greater than those planets in the total universes composed of the external potency of the Lord. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, the total universes in the external potency of the Lord are compared to a bucketful of mustard seeds. One mustard seed is calculated to be a universe itself. In one of the universes, in which we are now living, the number of planets cannot be counted by human energy, so how can we think of the sum total in all the universes, which are compared to a bucketful of mustard seeds? And the planets in the spiritual sky are at least three times the number of those in the material sky. Such planets, being spiritual, are in fact transcendental to the material modes; therefore they are constituted in the mode of unalloyed goodness only. The conception of spiritual bliss (brahmānanda) is fully present in those planets. Each of them is eternal, indestructible and free from all kinds of inebrieties experienced in the material world. Each of them is self-illuminating and more powerfully dazzling than (if we can imagine) the total sunshine of millions of mundane suns. The inhabitants of those planets are liberated from birth, death, old age and diseases and have full knowledge of everything; they are all godly and free from all sorts of material hankerings. They have nothing to do there except to render transcendental loving service to the Supreme Lord Nārāyaṇa, who is the predominating Deity of such Vaikuṇṭha planets. Those liberated souls are engaged incessantly in singing songs mentioned in the Sāma-Veda (vedaiḥ sāṅga-pada-kramopaniṣadair gāyanti yaṁ sāmagāḥ). All of them are personifications of the five Upaniṣads. Tripād-vibhūti, or the seventy-five percent portion known as the internal potency of the Lord, is to be understood as the kingdom of God far beyond the material sky; and when we speak of pāda-vibhūti, or the twenty-five percent portion comprising His external energy, we should understand that this refers to the sphere of the material world. It is also said in the Padma Purāṇa that the kingdom of tripād-vibhūti is transcendental, whereas the pāda-vibhūti is mundane. Tripād-vibhūti is eternal, whereas the pāda-vibhūti is transient. The Lord and His eternal servitors in the transcendental kingdom all have eternal forms which are auspicious, infallible, spiritual and eternally youthful. In other words, there is no birth, death, old age and disease. That eternal land is full of transcendental enjoyment and full of beauty and bliss. This very fact is also corroborated in this verse of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and the transcendental nature is described as amṛta; and as it is described in the Vedas: utāmṛtatvasyeśanaḥ. The Supreme Lord is the Lord of immortality, or in other words, the Lord is immortal, and because He is the Lord of immortality He can award immortality to His devotees. In the Bhagavad-gītā also (Bg. 8.16) the Lord assures that whoever may go to His abode of immortality shall never return to this mortal land of threefold miseries. The Lord is not like the mundane lord. The mundane master or lord never enjoys equally along with his subordinates, nor is a mundane lord immortal, nor can he award immortality to his subordinate. The Supreme Lord, who is the leader of all living entities, can award all the qualities of His personality unto His devotees, including immortality and spiritual bliss. In the material world there is always anxiety or fearfulness in the heart of all living entities, but the Lord, being Himself the supreme fearless, also awards the same quality of fearlessness to His pure devotees. Mundane existence is itself a kind of fearfulness because in all mundane bodies the effects of birth, death, old age and disease always keep a living being compact in fearfulness. In the mundane world, there is always the influence of time, which changes things from one stage to another, and the living entity, originally being avikāra or nonchangeable, suffers a great deal on account of changes due to the influence of time. The changing effects of the eternal time are conspicuously absent in the immortal kingdom of God; it is therefore to be understood that there is no influence of time and therefore no fear whatsoever. In the material world, so-called happiness is the result of one's own work. One can become a rich man by dint of one's own hard labor, and there are always fear and doubts as to the duration of such acquired happiness. But in the kingdom of God, no one has to endeavor to attain a standard of happiness. Happiness is the nature of the spirit, as it is stated in the Vedānta-sūtras: ānandamayo 'bhyāsāt—it is by nature full of happiness. Happiness in spiritual nature always increases in volume with a new phase of appreciation; there is no question of decreasing the bliss. Such unalloyed spiritual bliss is nowhere to be found within the orbit of the material universe, including the Janaloka planets, or, for that matter, the Maharloka or Satyaloka planets, because even Lord Brahmā is subjected to the laws of fruitive actions and the law of birth and death. It is, therefore, stated here: duratyayaḥ, or, in other words, spiritual happiness in the eternal kingdom of God cannot be imagined even by the great brahmacārīs or sannyāsīs who are eligible to be promoted to the planets beyond the region of heaven.

Human civilization in which there is no control of sex life is a fourth-class civilization because in such an atmosphere there is no liberation of the soul encaged in the material body. Birth, death, old age and disease are related to the material body, and they have nothing to do with the spirit soul. But as long as the bodily attachment for sensual enjoyment is encouraged, the individual spirit soul is forced to continue the repetition of birth and death on account of the material body, which is compared to garments subjected to the law of deterioration.", + "In order to award the highest benefit of human life, the varṇāśrama system trains the follower to adopt the vow of celibacy beginning from the order of brahmacārī. The brahmacārī life is for students who are educated to follow strictly the vow of celibacy. Youngsters who have had no taste of sex life can easily follow the vow of celibacy, and once fixed in the principle of such a life, one can very easily continue to the highest perfectional stage, attaining the kingdom of the three-fourths energy of the Lord. It is already explained that in the cosmos of three-fourths energy of the Lord, there is neither death nor fear, and one is full of the blissful life of happiness and knowledge. A householder attached to family life can easily give up such a life of sex indulgence if he has been trained in the principles of the life of brahmacārī. A householder is recommended to quit home at the end of fifty years (pañcasordhaṁ vanaṁ vrajet) and live a life in the forest; then, being fully detached from family affection, he may accept the order of renunciation as a sannyāsī fully engaged in the service of the Lord. Any form of religious principles in which the followers are trained to pursue the vow of celibacy is good for the human being because only those who are trained in that way can end the miserable life of material existence. The principles of nirvāṇa, as recommended by Lord Buddha, are also meant for ending the miserable life of material existence. And this process, in the highest degree, is recommended here in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, with clear perception of ideal perfection, although basically there is no difference between the process of Buddhists, Śaṅkarites and Vaiṣṇavites. For promotion to the highest status of perfection, namely freedom from birth and death, anxiety and fearfulness, not one of these processes allows the follower to break the vow of celibacy.", + "The householders and persons who have broken the vow of celibacy deliberately cannot enter into the kingdom of deathlessness. The pious householders or the fallen yogīs or the fallen transcendentalists can be promoted to the higher planets within the material world (one-fourth of the energy of the Lord), but they will fail to enter into the kingdom of deathlessness. Abṛhad-vratas are those who have broken the vow of celibacy. The vānaprasthas, or those retired from family life, and the sannyāsīs, or the renounced persons, cannot break the vow of celibacy if they want success in the process. The brahmacārīs, vānaprasthas and the sannyāsīs do not intend to take rebirth (apraja), nor are they meant for secretly indulging in sex life. Such a falldown by the spiritualist may be compensated by another chance of human life in good families of learned brāhmaṇas or of rich merchants for another term of elevation, but the best thing is to attain the highest perfection of deathlessness as soon as the human form of life is attained; otherwise the whole policy of human life will prove to be a total failure. Lord Caitanya was very strict in advising His followers in this matter of celibacy. One of His personal attendants, Choṭa Haridāsa, was severely punished by Lord Caitanya because of his failure to observe the vow of celibacy. For a transcendentalist, therefore, who at all wants to be promoted to the kingdom beyond material miseries, it is worse than suicide to deliberately indulge in sex life, especially in the renounced order of life. Sex life in the renounced order of life is the most perverted form of religious life, and such a misguided person can only be saved if, by chance, he meets a pure devotee." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5f491cab --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,109 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 2.6.21", + "devanagari": "सृती विचक्रमे विश्वं साशनानशने उभे\nयद् अविद्या च विद्या च पुरुषस्तूभयाश्रयः", + "transliteration": "sṛtī vicakrame viśvaṁ\nsāśanānaśane ubhe\nyad avidyā ca vidyā ca\npuruṣas tūbhayāśrayaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sṛtī", + "meanings": [ + "destination of the living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vicakrame", + "meanings": [ + "exists comprehensively" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvam", + "meanings": [ + "the all-pervading Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sāśana", + "meanings": [ + "activities of lording it over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anaśane", + "meanings": [ + "activities in the matter of devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ubhe", + "meanings": [ + "both" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "what is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avidyā", + "meanings": [ + "nescience" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "as well as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidyā", + "meanings": [ + "factual knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ubhaya", + "meanings": [ + "for both of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsrayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "master." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By His energies, the all-pervading Personality of Godhead is thus comprehensively the master in the activities of controlling and in devotional service.

The individual soul knows about his own thinking, feeling and willing activities, but the Supersoul or the Paramātmā, the supreme controller, being present everywhere, knows everyone's thinking, feeling and willing activities, and as such the individual living entity is the minute master of his personal affairs, whereas the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the master of everyone's affairs, past, present, and future (vedāhaṁ samatītāni, etc.). Only the ignorant person does not know this difference between the Lord and the living entities. The living entities, as distinguished from the incognizant matter, may be qualitatively equal to the Lord in the matter of cognizance, but the living entity can never be equal to the Lord in full knowledge of past, present and future.", + "And because the living entity is partially cognizant, he is therefore sometimes forgetful of his own identity. This forgetfulness is specifically manifested in the field of the ekapād-vibhūti of the Lord, or in the material world, but in the tripād-vibhūti field of actions, or in the spiritual world, there is no forgetfulness by the living entities, who are free from all kinds of contaminations resulting from the forgetful state of existence. The material body is the symbol of the gross and subtle form of forgetfulness; therefore the whole atmosphere of the material world is called avidyā, or nescience, and similarly the whole atmosphere of the spiritual world is called vidyā, or full of knowledge. There are different stages of avidyā, and they are called dharma, artha, and mokṣa. The idea of mokṣa, or liberation, held by the monist in the matter of oneness of the living entity and the Lord by ultimate merging in one, is also the last stage of materialism or forgetfulness. To acquire the knowledge of qualitative oneness of the self and Superself is partial knowledge and ignorance also because there is no knowledge in the matter of quantitative difference, as explained above. The individual self can never be equal to the Lord in cognizance, otherwise he could not be placed in the state of forgetfulness. So, because there is a stage of forgetfulness of the individual selves, or the living entities, there is always a gulf of difference between the Lord and the living entity, as between the part and the whole. The part is never equal to the whole.

In the material world, therefore, everyone is engaged in acquiring material opulence to lord it over the material world. Therefore there is always clash and frustration, which are the symptoms of nescience. But in the field of knowledge, there is devotional service of the Lord (bhakti). Therefore there is no chance of being contaminated by the influence of nescience or forgetfulness (avidyā) in the liberated stage of devotional activities.

The general process is that a living creature is born out of the sex combination of the male father and the female mother. But Brahmā, the first-born living being, is born out of the abdominal lotus flower of the Maha-Viṣṇu plenary expansion of Lord Kṛṣṇa. The abdominal lotus flower is part of the Lord's bodily limbs, and Brahmā is born out of the lotus flower. Therefore Lord Brahmā is also a part of the Lord's body. Brahmā, after his appearence in the gigantic hollow of the universe, saw darkness and nothing else. He felt perplexity, and from his heart he was inspired by the Lord to undergo austerity, thereby acquiring the ingredients for sacrificial performances. But there was nothing besides the two of them, namely the Personality of Mahā-Viṣṇu and Brahmā himself, born of the bodily part of the Lord. For sacrificial performances many ingredients were in need, especially animals. The animal sacrifice is never meant for killing the animal, but for achieving the successful result of the sacrifice. The animal offered in the sacrificial fire is, so to speak, destroyed, but the next moment it is given a new life again by dint of the Vedic hymns chanted by the expert priest. When such an expert priest is not available, the animal sacrifice in the fire of the sacrificial altar is forbidden. Thus Brahmā created even the sacrificial ingredients out of the bodily limbs of the Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, which means that the cosmic order was created by Brahmā himself. Also, nothing is created out of nothing, but everything is created from the person of the Lord. The Lord says in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 10.8), ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate. \"Everything is made from My bodily limbs, and I am therefore the original source of all creations.\"", + "The impersonalists argue that there is no use in worshiping the Lord when everything is nothing but the Lord Himself. The personalist, however, worships the Lord out of a great sense of gratitude, utilizing the ingredients born out of the bodily limbs of the Lord. The fruits and flowers are available from the body of the earth, and yet mother earth is worshiped by the sensible devotee with ingredients born from the earth. Similarly, mother Ganges is worshiped by the water of the Ganges, and yet the worshiper enjoys the result of such worship. Worship of the Lord is also performed by the ingredients born from the bodily limbs of the Lord, and yet the worshiper, who is himself a part of the Lord, achieves the result of devotional service of the Lord.

So the conception of oneness, as is overly stressed by the impersonalist, is also accepted by the personalist devotee of the Lord. The difference is that the impersonalist denies personality in the ultimate issue, whereas the devotee gives more importance to the Personality of Godhead. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam explains this truth in the verse under discussion: Lord Vāsudeva is one without a second, but because He is all-powerful, He can expand Himself as well as display His omnipotencies. The Lord is described here as omnipotent by three energies (tri-śakti-dhṛk). So primarily His three energies are internal, marginal, and external. This external energy is also displayed in the three modes of goodness, passion and ignorance. Similarly, the internal potency is also displayed in three spiritual modes, saṁvit, sandhinī, and hlādinī. The marginal potency or the living entities are also spiritual (prakṛtiṁ viddhi me parām), but they are never equal with the Lord. The Lord is nirasta sāmya atiśaya; in other words, no one is greater than or equal to the Supreme Lord. So the living entities, including even such great personalities as Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva, are all subordinate to the Lord. In the material world also, in His eternal form of Viṣṇu, He maintains and controls all the affairs of the demigods, including Brahmā and Śiva." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/33.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/33.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1b1de7a4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/33.json @@ -0,0 +1,109 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 33, + "reference": "SB 2.6.33", + "devanagari": "इति ते ऽभिहितं तात यथेदम् अनुपृच्छसि\nनान्यद्भगवतः किंचिद्भाव्यं सदसदात्मकम्", + "transliteration": "iti te 'bhihitaṁ tāta\nyathedam anupṛcchasi\nnānyad bhagavataḥ kiñcid\nbhāvyaṁ sad-asad-ātmakam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhihitam", + "meanings": [ + "explained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāta", + "meanings": [ + "my dear son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anupṛcchasi", + "meanings": [ + "as you have inquired" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyat", + "meanings": [ + "anything else" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "beyond the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kiñcit", + "meanings": [ + "nothing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāvyam", + "meanings": [ + "to be thought ever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat", + "meanings": [ + "cause" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asat", + "meanings": [ + "effect" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmakam", + "meanings": [ + "in the matter of." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear son, whatever you inquired from me, I have thus explained unto you, and you must know for certain that whatever there is (either as cause or as effect, both in the material and spiritual worlds) is dependent on the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "purport": [ + "The complete cosmic situation, both in the material and in the spiritual manifestations of the energies of the Lord, is working and moving first as the cause and then as the effect.

The followers of Vedic wisdom accept the statements of Brahmājī as gospel truth, and transcendental knowledge is thus being distributed all over the world by the process of disciplic succession from time immemorial, since the beginning of the creation. Lord Brahmā is the perfect liberated living being within the material world, and any sincere student of transcendental knowledge must accept the words and statements of Brahmājī as infallible. The Vedic knowledge is infallible because it comes down directly from the Supreme Lord unto the heart of Brahmā, and since he is the most perfect living being, Brahmājī is always correct to the letter. And this is because Lord Brahmā is a great devotee of the Lord who has earnestly accepted the lotus feet of the Lord as the supreme truth. In the Brahma-saṁhitā, which is compiled by Brahmājī, he repeats the aphorism, govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi: \"I am a worshiper of the original Personality of Godhead, Govinda, the primeval Lord.\" So whatever he says, whatever he thinks, and whatever he does normally in his mood are to be accepted as truth because of his direct and very intimate connection with Govinda, the primeval Lord. Śrī Govinda, who pleasingly accepts the loving transcendental service of His devotees, gives all protection to the words and actions of His devotees. The Lord declares in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.31), kaunteya pratijānīhi: \"O son of Kuntī, please declare it.\" The Lord asks Arjuna to declare, and why? Because sometimes the declaration of Govinda Himself may seem to be contradictory to mundane creatures, but the mundaner will never find any contradiction in the words of the Lord's devotees. The devotees are especially protected by the Lord so that they may remain infallible. Therefore the process of devotional service always begins in the service of the devotee who appears in disciplic succession. The devotees are always liberated, but that does not mean that they are impersonal. The Lord is a person eternally, and the devotee of the Lord is also a person eternally. Because the devotee has his sense organs even at the liberated stage, he is therefore a person always. And because the devotee's service is accepted by the Lord in full reciprocation, the Lord is also a person in His complete spiritual embodiment. The devotee's senses, being engaged in the service of the Lord, never go astray under the attraction of false material enjoyment. The plannings of the devotee never go in vain, and all these things are due to the faithful attachment of the devotee for the service of the Lord. This is the standard of perfection and liberation. Anyone, beginning from Brahmājī down to the human being, is at once put on the path of liberation simply by his attachment in great earnestness for the Supreme Lord, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the primeval Lord.

The reason is that the Supreme Lord is Absolute Truth, and anything earnestly dovetailed with the Absolute Truth attains the same transcendental quality. On the other hand, any amount of mental speculation on the strength of material science and knowledge without any bona fide touch with the Absolute Truth is sure to be a mundane untruth and failure, simply due to not being in touch with the Absolute Truth.

So these qualifications are not sufficient to know the Supreme Lord. Brahmājī could understand the Lord to a little extent only when he was trying to serve Him by the eagerness of his heart (hṛdaut-kaṇṭhya), which is the devotional service mood. Therefore, the Lord can be known only by the sincere mood of eagerness for service, and not by any amount of material qualification as scientist or speculative philosopher or by attainment of mystic powers. This fact is clearly corroborated in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 18.54-55):", + "brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā na śocati na kāṅkṣati

But failing in devotional service, one remains still imperfect because even in that position of self-realization, one cannot factually know the Supreme Lord. By self-realization, one is qualified to become a devotee, and the devotee, by service mood (bhaktyā) only, can gradually know the Personality of Godhead. One should not, however, misunderstand the import of viśate (enters into) as being merged into the existence of the Supreme. Even in the material existence, one is merged in the existence of the Lord. No materialist can disentangle self from matter due to the self's being merged in the external energy of the Lord. As no layman can separate butter from milk, similarly no one can extricate the merged self from matter by acquiring some material qualification. This viśate by devotion (bhakti) means to be able to participate in the association of the Lord in person. Bhakti, or devotional service of the Lord, means to become free from the material entanglement and then to enter into the kingdom of God, becoming one like Him. Losing one's individuality is not the aim of bhakti-yoga or of the devotees of the Lord. There are five types of liberations, one of which is called sāyujya-mukti, or being merged into the existence or body of the Lord. The other forms of liberation maintain the individuality of the particle soul and involve always being engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. The word viśate, used in the verses of the Bhagavad-gītā, is thus meant for the devotees who are not at all anxious for any kind of liberation.

Therefore, who can be a more learned Vedāntist than Lord Brahmā? He admits that in spite of his perfect knowledge in the Vedas, he was unable to know the glories of the Lord. Since no one can be more than Lord Brahmā, how can a so-called Vedāntist be perfectly cognizant of the Absolute Truth? The so-called Vedāntist, therefore, cannot enter into the existence of the Lord without being trained in the matter of Bhakti-vedānta, or Vedānta plus bhakti. Vedānta means self-realization, and bhakti means realization of the Personality of Godhead, to some extent. No one can know the Personality of Godhead in full, but at least to a certain extent, one can know the Absolute Truth, Personality of Godhead, by self-surrender and devotional attitude, and by nothing else. In the Brahma-saṁhitā also, it is said, vedeṣu durlabham, or simply by study of Vedānta one can hardly find out the existence of the Personality of Godhead, but the Lord is adurlabham ātma-bhaktau, very easily available to His devotee. Śrīla Vyāsadeva, therefore, was not satisfied simply with compiling the Vedānta-sūtras, but over and above this, by the advice of his spiritual master, Nārada, he compiled the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in order to understand the real import of Vedānta.

Lord Brahmā is known as the pitāmaha, or the father's father. A young man consults his experienced father about discharging his duties. So the father is naturally a good advisor. But Lord Brahmā is the father of all fathers. He is the father of the father of Manu, who is the father of mankind all over the universal planets. Therefore the mankind of this insignificant planet should kindly accept the instruction of Brahmājī and would do well to surrender unto the lotus feet of the Lord rather than try to estimate the length and breadth of the Lord's potencies. His potencies are immeasurable, as is confirmed in the Vedas. Parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate svābhāvikī jñāna-bala-kriyā ca. He is greatest of all, and all others, even the greatest of all living beings, namely, Brahmājī, admits that the best thing for us is to surrender unto Him. Therefore only those persons with a very poor fund of knowledge claim that they themselves are lords of all that they survey. And what can they survey? They cannot survey even the length and breadth of a small sky in one small universe. The so-called material scientist says that he would need to live forty thousand years to reach the highest planet of the universe, being carried by a sputnik. This is also utopian because no one can be expected to live forty thousand years. Besides, when the space pilot returns from his travel, none of his friends would be present to receive him back as the greatest astronaut, as has become fashionable for modern bewildered scientific men. One scientific man, who had no belief in God, was very much enthusiastic in making plans for his material existence and therefore opened a hospital to save the living. But after opening the hospital, he himself died within six months. So one should not spoil his human life, which is obtained after many, many changes of bodies in 8,400,000 species of life, simply for the concocted material happiness of life by increasing artificial needs in the name of advancement of economic development and scientific knowledge, but one should simply surrender unto the feet of the Lord to make a solution of all miseries of life. That is the instruction of Lord Kṛṣṇa directly in the Bhagavad-gītā, and that is the instruction of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam by Brahmājī, the supreme father of all living beings.", + "Anyone denying this surrendering process as recommended both in the Bhagavad-gītā and in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and, for that matter, in all authorized scriptures, will be forced to surrender unto the laws of material nature. The living entity, by his constitutional position, is not independent. He must surrender, either unto the Lord or unto material nature. Material nature is also not independent of the Lord, since the Lord Himself has claimed material nature as mama māyā, or \"My energy\" (Bg. 7.14), and as me bhinnā prakṛtir aṣṭadhā, or \"My separated energy in eight divisions.\" (Bg. 7.4) Therefore material nature is also controlled by the Lord, as He has claimed in Bhagavad-gītā: mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sacarācaram, \"Under My direction only is material nature working, and thus are all things moving.\" (Bg. 9.10) And the living entities, being superior energy to matter, have choice and discrimination either to surrender unto the Lord or to surrender unto material nature. By surrendering unto the Lord, one is happy and liberated, but by surrendering unto material nature the living entity suffers. So the end of all suffering means surrendering unto the Lord because the surrendering process itself is bhavacchidam or liberation from all material miseries, svastyayanam or perception of all happiness, and sumaṅgalam or the source of everything auspicious.", + "Therefore liberty, happiness and all good fortune can be attained only by surrendering unto the Lord because He is full liberty, full happiness and full auspiciousness. Such liberation and happiness are also unlimited, and they have been compared to the sky, although such liberation and happiness are infinitely greater than the sky. In our present position we can simply understand the magnitude of greatness when it is compared with the sky. We fail to make a measurement of the sky, but the happiness and liberty obtained in association with the Lord are far greater than the sky. That spiritual happiness is so great that it cannot be measured, even by the Lord Himself, not to speak of others.", + "It is said in the scriptures, brahma sukhaṁ tv anantam, spiritual happiness is unlimited. Here it is said that even the Lord cannot measure such happiness. This does not mean that the Lord cannot measure it and is therefore imperfect in that sense. The actual position is that the Lord can measure it, but the happiness in the Lord is also identical with the Lord on account of absolute knowledge. So the happiness derived from the Lord may be measured by the Lord, but the happiness increases again, and the Lord measures it again, and then again the happiness increases more and more, and the Lord measures it more and more, and as such there is eternally a competition between increment and measurement, so much so that the competition is never stopped, but goes on unlimitedly ad infinitum. Spiritual happiness is ānandāmbudhi-vardhanam, or the ocean of happiness which increases. The material ocean is stagnant, but the spiritual ocean is dynamic. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, (4th Chapter, Ādi-līlā) Kavirāja Gosvāmī has very nicely described this dynamic increment of the ocean of spiritual happiness in the transcendental person of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, the pleasure potency of Lord Kṛṣṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5856da0b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/06/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,153 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 2.6.37", + "devanagari": "नाहं न यूयं यदृतां गतिं विदुर्न वामदेवः किम् उतापरे सुराः\nतन्मायया मोहितबुद्धयस्त्व् इदं विनिर्मितं चात्मसमं विचक्ष्महे", + "transliteration": "nāhaṁ na yūyaṁ yad-ṛtāṁ gatiṁ vidur\nna vāmadevaḥ kim utāpare surāḥ\ntan-māyayā mohita-buddhayas tv idaṁ\nvinirmitaṁ cātma-samaṁ vicakṣmahe", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "neither" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yūyam", + "meanings": [ + "all you sons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛtām", + "meanings": [ + "factual" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatim", + "meanings": [ + "movements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viduḥ", + "meanings": [ + "do know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāmadevaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uta", + "meanings": [ + "else" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apare", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "by His" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the illusory energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mohita", + "meanings": [ + "bewildered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "buddhayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with such intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vinirmitam", + "meanings": [ + "what is created" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-samam", + "meanings": [ + "by dint of one's personal capacity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vicakṣmahe", + "meanings": [ + "observe." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Since neither Lord Śiva nor you nor I could ascertain the limits of spiritual happiness, how can other demigods know it?

Everyone thinks, in terms of individual capacity, that this universe, which is manifested before us, is all in all. And so the scientist in the human society of the twentieth century calculates the beginning and end of the universe in his own way. But what can the scientists know? Even Brahmā himself was once bewildered, thinking himself the only one Brahmā favored by the Lord, but later on, by the grace of the Lord, he came to know that there are innumerable more powerful Brahmās as well in far bigger universes beyond this universe, and all of these universes combined together form ekapād-vibhūti or one-fourth of the manifestation of the Lord's creative energy. The other three-fourths of His energy are displayed in the spiritual world, so what can the tiny scientist with a tiny brain know of the Absolute Personality of Godhead, Lord Kṛṣṇa? The Lord says, therefore, mohitam nābhijānāti mām ebhyaḥ param avyayam: bewildered by such modes of material nature, they cannot understand that there is a Supreme Person beyond these manifestations who is the absolute controller of everything. Brahmā, Nārada and Lord Śiva know about the Lord to a considerable extent, and therefore one should follow the instructions of these great personalities instead of being satisfied with a tiny brain and its playful discoveries such as spacecraft and similar products of science.

Otherwise, by untenable arguments, all is distorted, and the Lord disappears from our sight.", + "purport": [ + "Here is an estimation of the Lord apart from His transcendental activities in the temporary material creations. Māyāvāda philosophy tries to designate the Lord as contaminated by a material body when He accepts forms of incarnation. This sort of interpolation is completely denied herein by explaining the position of the Lord as pure and unalloyed in all circumstances. According to Māyāvāda philosophy, the spirit soul, when covered by nescience, is designated as jīva, but when he is freed from such ignorance of nescience he is merged in the impersonal existence of the Absolute Truth. But here it is said that the Lord is eternally the symbol of full and perfect knowledge. This is His speciality: perpetual freedom from all material contaminations. This distinguishes the Lord from the individual, common living entities who have the aptitude of being subordinated by nescience and thus becoming materially designated. In the Vedas it is said that the Lord is vijñānam ānandam, full of bliss and knowledge. The conditioned souls are never to be compared to Him because such individual souls have the tendency of becoming contaminated. Although after liberation the living entity can become one with the same quality of existence as the Lord, his very tendency to become contaminated, which the Lord never has, makes the individual living entity different from the Lord. In the Vedas it is said, ayam atma apahata papna itit: the individual ātmā becomes polluted by sin, but the Lord is never contaminated by sins. The Lord is compared to the powerful sun. The sun is never contaminated by anything infectious because it is so powerful. On the contrary, infected things are sterilized by the rays of the sun. Similarly, the Lord is never contaminated by sins; on the contrary, the sinful living entities become sterilized by contact with the Lord. This means that the Lord is also all-pervading like the sun, and as such the word pratyak is used in this verse. Nothing is excluded from the existence of the Lord's potential expansions. The Lord is within everything, and He is all-covering also, without being disturbed by the activities of the individual souls. He is therefore infinite, and the living entities are infinitesimal. In the Vedas it is said that only the Lord alone exists, and all others' existences depend on Him. He is the generating reservoir for everyone's existential capacity; He is the Supreme Truth of all other categorical truths. He is the source of everyone's opulence, and therefore no one can equal Him in opulence. Being full of all opulences, namely wealth, fame, strength, beauty, knowledge and renunciation, certainly He is the Supreme Person. And because He is a person, He has many personal qualities, although He is transcendental to the material modes. We have already discussed the statement, itthambhūta-guno hariḥ. (Bhāg. 1.7.10) His transcendental qualities are so attractive that even the liberated souls (ātmārāmas) are also attracted by them. Although possessed of all personal qualities, He is, nevertheless, omnipotent. Therefore, personally He has nothing to do, for everything is being carried out by His omnipotent energies. This is confirmed by the Vedic mantras: parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate svābhāvikī jñāna-bala-kriyā ca. This suggests His specific spiritual form, which can never be experienced by the material senses. He can be seen only when the senses are purified by devotional service, yam evaiṣa vṛṇute tanūṁ svām. As such, there are basic differences between the Lord and the living entities, in so many respects. No one can be compared to the Lord, as the Vedas declare, ekam evādvitīyaṁ brahma dvaitāt vai bhayaṁ bhavati. The Lord has no competitor, and He has nothing to fear from any other being, nor can anyone be equal to Him. Although He is the root of all other beings, there are basic differences between Him and other beings. Otherwise there was no necessity of the statement in the previous verse that no one can know Him one hundred percent as He is, na yaṁ vidanti tattvena. That no one can fully understand Him is explained also in this verse, but the qualification for understanding to some degree is mentioned here. Only the praśāntas, or the unalloyed devotees of the Lord, can know Him to a greater extent. The reason is that the devotees have no demands in their lives but to be obedient servants of the Lord, while all others, namely the emperic philosophers, the mystics, and the fruitive workers, all basically have some demand, and as such they cannot be pacified. The fruitive worker wants reward for his work, the mystic wants some perfection of life, and the empiric philosopher wants to merge in the existence of the Lord. Somehow or other, as long as there is a demand for sense satisfaction, there is no chance for pacification; on the contrary, by unnecessary dry speculative arguments, the whole matter becomes distorted, and thus the Lord moves still further away from our understanding. The dry speculators, however, because of their following the principles of austerity and penance, can have knowledge of the impersonal features of the Lord to some extent, but there is no chance of their understanding His ultimate form as Govinda because only the amalātmanas, or the completely sinless persons, can accept pure devotional service of the Lord, as is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.28):", + "yeṣāṁ tv antagataṁ pāpaṁ janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām

The material creation is but a temporary exhibition of the material energy of the Almighty God. This material manifestation is necessary to give a chance to the conditioned souls who are unwilling to associate with the Lord in the relationship of loving transcendental service. Such unwilling conditioned souls are not allowed to enter into the liberated life of spiritual existence because at heart they are not willing to serve. Instead, they want to enjoy themselves as imitation Gods. The living entities are constitutionally eternal servitors of the Lord, but some of them, because of misusing their independence, do not wish to serve; therefore they are allowed to enjoy the material nature, which is called māyā, or illusion. It is called illusion because the living beings under the clutches of māyā are not factually enjoyers, although they think that they are, being illusioned by māyā. Such illusioned living entities are given a chance at intervals to rectify their perverted mentality of becoming false masters of the material nature, and they are imparted lessons from the Vedas about their eternal relationship with the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa (vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ). So the temporary creation of the material manifestation is an exhibition of the material energy of the Lord, and to manage the whole show the Supreme Lord incarnates Himself as the Kāraṇārṇavaśāyī Viṣṇu just as a magistrate is deputed by the government to manage affairs temporarily. This Kāraṇodakaśāyī Viṣṇu causes the manifestation of material creation by looking over His material energy (sa aikṣataḥ). In the first volume of this book we have already discussed to some extent the explanation of the verse jagṛhe pauruṣaṁ rūpaṁ. The duration of the illusory play of material creation is called a kalpa, and we have already discussed the creation's taking place in kalpa after kalpa. By His incarnation and potential activities, the complete ingredients of creation, namely time, space, cause, result, mind, the gross and subtle elements and their interactional modes of nature—goodness, passion and ignorance—and then the senses and their reservoir source, the gigantic universal form as the second incarnation Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and all living beings, both moving and standing, which come out of the second incarnation, all became manifested. Ultimately, all these creative elements and the creation itself are but potential manifestations of the Supreme Lord; nothing is independent of the control of the Supreme Being.

The less intelligent class of men is surprised to see the wonderful actions of material phenomena, as the aborigines are fearful of a great thunderbolt, a great and gigantic banyan tree, or a great lofty mountain in the jungle. For such undeveloped human beings, merely the slight display of the Lord's potency is captivating. A still more advanced person is captivated by the powers of the demigods and goddesses. Therefore, those who are simply astonished by the powers of anything in the creation of the Lord, without any factual information of the Lord Himself, are known as Śaktas, or worshipers of the great powers. The modern scientist is also captivated by the wonderful actions and reactions of natural phenomena and therefore is also Śakta. These lower grade persons gradually rise to states of becoming Sauriyas, or worshipers of the sun-god, Gāṇapatyas, or worshipers of the mass of people as janatājanārdana or daridrya-nārāyaṇa, etc., in the form of Gaṇapati, and then rise to the platform of worshiping Lord Śiva in search for the ever-existing soul, and then to the stage of worshiping Lord Viṣṇu, the Supersoul, etc., without any information of Govinda or Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is the original Lord Viṣṇu. In other ways some are worshipers of race, nationality, birds, beasts, evil spirits, satans, etc. The general worship of Śanideva, the lord of distressful condition, and Śitalādevī, the goddess of smallpox, is also common to the mass of people, and there are many foolish men who worship the mass of people or the poor class of men. So different persons, societies and communities, etc., worship some of the potential manifestations of the Lord, wrongly accepting the powerful object as God. But in this verse it is advised by Brahmājī that none of them is the Supreme Lord, but they are only borrowed plumes from the original Almighty Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa.

Every living entity has a tendency to hear pleasing messages, and as such almost every one of us is inclined to hear news and talks broadcast by the radio stations. But the difficulty is that no one is satisfied at heart by hearing all those messages. The cause of such dissatisfaction is the incompatibility of the message with the innermost stratum of the living soul. This transcendental literature is especially prepared by Śrīla Vyāsadeva to give the utmost satisfaction to the people in general by narration of the activities of the Lord, as instructed by Śrī Nārada Muni to Śrīla Vyāsadeva. Such activities of the Lord are principally of two varieties. One concerns the mundane manifestation of the material creative force, and the other deals with His pastimes in the form of different incarnations in terms of the time and place. There are innumerable incarnations of the Lord, like the waves of the river flowing constantly in and out. Less intelligent persons take more interest in the creative forces of the Lord in the material world, and, being disconnected from their relationship with the Lord, they put forward many theories of the creation in the name of scientific research. The devotees of the Lord, however, know well how the creative forces work concurrently by the action and reaction of the material energy of the Lord. Therefore they take more interest in the transcendental activities of the Lord as He incarnates Himself on the surface of the material world. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the history of such activities of the Lord, and people who take interest in hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam clear their hearts of accumulated mundane filth. There are a thousand and one rash literatures on the market, but one who has taken interest in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam loses all interest in such filthy literatures. Śrī Brahmājī is thus attempting to narrate the principal incarnations of the Lord so that they may be drunk by Nārada as transcendental nectar." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..fdac5c39 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,151 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 2.7.1", + "devanagari": "ब्रह्मोवाच\nयत्रोद्यतः क्षितितलोद्धरणाय बिभ्रत्क्रौडीं तनुं सकलयज्ञमयीम् अनन्तः\nअन्तर्महार्णव उपागतम् आदिदैत्यं तं दंष्ट्रयाद्रिम् इव वज्रधरो ददार", + "transliteration": "brahmovāca\nyatrodyataḥ kṣiti-taloddharaṇāya bibhrat\nkrauḍīṁ tanuṁ sakala-yajña-mayīm anantaḥ\nantar-mahārṇava upāgatam ādi-daityaṁ\ntaṁ daṁṣṭrayādrim iva vajra-dharo dadāra", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "brahmā uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Brahmā said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "at that time (when)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udyataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attempted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣiti-tala", + "meanings": [ + "the earthly planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uddharaṇāya", + "meanings": [ + "for the matter of lifting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bibhrat", + "meanings": [ + "assumed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krauḍīm", + "meanings": [ + "pastimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tanum", + "meanings": [ + "form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakala", + "meanings": [ + "total" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajña-mayīm", + "meanings": [ + "all-inclusive sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anantaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antar", + "meanings": [ + "within the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-arṇave", + "meanings": [ + "the great Garbha Ocean" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upāgatam", + "meanings": [ + "having arrived at" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādi", + "meanings": [ + "the first" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daityam", + "meanings": [ + "demon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daṁṣṭrayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the tusk" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adrim", + "meanings": [ + "the flying mountains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vajra-dharaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the controller of the thunderbolts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadāra", + "meanings": [ + "pierced." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Brahmā said: At the time when the unlimitedly powerful Lord assumed the form of a boar as a pastime, just to lift up the earthly planet, which was drowned in the great ocean of the universe called the Garbhodaka, the first demon [Hiraṇyākṣa] appeared, and the Lord pierced him with His tusk.", + "purport": [ + "Since the beginning of creation, the demons and the demigods or the Vaiṣṇavas are always the two classes of living beings to dominate the planets of the universes.

This contamination by the material modes can be washed off completely by knowledge, renunciation and devotional service.

The Lord accepted his prayer, and He gave Himself as the son of Atreya. Such a relation of sonhood between the Lord and His pure devotees can be cited in many instances. And because the Lord is unlimited, He has an unlimited number of father-devotees. Factually the Lord is the father of all living entities, but out of transcendental affection and love between the Lord and His devotees, the Lord takes more pleasure in becoming the son of a devotee than in becoming one's father. The father actually serves the son, whereas the son only demands all sorts of services from the father; therefore a pure devotee who is always inclined to serve the Lord wants Him as the son, and not as the father. The Lord also accepts such service from the devotee, and thus the devotee becomes more than the Lord. The impersonalists desire to become one with the Supreme, but the devotee becomes more than the Lord, surpassing the desire of the greatest monist. Parents and other relatives of the Lord achieve all mystic opulences automatically because of their intimate relationship with the Lord. Such opulences include all details of material enjoyment, salvation and mystic powers. Therefore, the devotee of the Lord does not seek them separately, wasting his valuable time in life. The valuable time of one's life must therefore be fully engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Then other desirable achievements are automatically gained. But even after obtaining such achievements one should be on guard against the pitfall of offenses at the feet of the devotees.

Great vows of austerity are undertaken by sages to achieve success in self-realization. Human life is meant for such tapasya, with the great vow of celibacy or brahmacarya. In the rigid life of tapasya, there is no place for the association of woman. And because human life is meant for tapasya, for self-realization, factual human civilization, as conceived by the system of sanātana-dharma or the school of four castes and four orders of life, prescribes rigid dissociation from woman in three stages of life. In the order of gradual cultural development, one's life may be divided in four divisions: celibacy, household life, retirement, and renunciation. During the first stage of life, up to twenty-five years of age, a man may be trained as a brahmacārī under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master just to understand that woman is the real binding force in the material existence. If anyone wants to get freedom from the material bondage of conditional life, he must get free from the attraction for the form of woman. Woman, or the fair sex, is the enchanting principle for the living entities, and the male form, especially of the human being, is meant for self-realization. The whole world is moving under the spell of womanly attraction, and as soon as a man becomes united with a woman, he at once becomes a victim of material bondage under a tight knot. The desires for lording it over the material world, under the intoxication of a false sense of lordship, specifically begin just after the man's unification with a woman. The desires for acquiring a house, possessing land, having children and becoming prominent in society, the affection for community and the place of birth, and the hankering for wealth, which are all like the phantasmagoria or illusory dreams of life, encumber a human being, and he is thus impeded in his progress toward self-realization, the real aim of life. The brahmacārī, or a boy from the age of five years, especially from the higher castes, namely from the scholarly parents (the brāhmaṇas), the administrative parents (the kṣatriyas), or the mercantile or productive parents (the vaiśyas), is trained until twenty-five years of age under the care of a bona fide guru or teacher, and under strict observance of discipline he comes to understand the values of life along with taking specific training for livelihood. The brahmacārī is then allowed to go home and enter householder life and get married to a suitable woman. But there are many brahmacārīs who do not go home to become householders but continue the life of naiṣṭhika-brahmacārīs, without any connection with women. They accept the order of sannyāsa, or the renounced order of life, knowing well that combination with women is an unnecessary burden that checks self-realization. Since sex desire is very strong at a certain stage of life, the guru may allow the brahmacārī to marry; this license is given to a brahmacārī who is unable to continue the way of naiṣṭhika-brahmacarya, and such discriminations are possible for the bona fide guru. A program of so-called family planning is needed. The householder who associates with woman under scriptural restrictions, after a thorough training of brahmacarya, cannot be a householder like cats and dogs. Such a householder, after fifty years of age, would retire from the association of woman as a vānaprastha to be trained up to live alone without the association of woman. When the practice is complete, the same retired householder becomes a sannyāsī, strictly separate from woman, even from his married wife. Studying the whole scheme of disassociation from women, it appears that a woman is a stumbling block for self-realization, and the Lord appeared as Nārāyaṇa to teach the principle of womanly disassociation with a vow in life. The demigods, being envious of the austere life of the rigid brahmacārīs, would try to cause them to break their vows by dispatching soldiers of Cupid. But in the case of the Lord, it became an unsuccessful attempt when the celestial beauties saw that the Lord can produce innumerable such beauties by His mystic internal potency, so there was no need to be attracted by others externally. There is a common proverb that a confectioner is never attracted by sweetmeats. The confectioner, who is always manufacturing sweetmeats, has very little desire to eat them; similarly, the Lord, by His pleasure potential powers, can produce innumerable spiritual beauties and not be the least attracted by the false beauties of material creation. One who does not know, foolishly alleges that Lord Kṛṣṇa enjoyed women in His rāsa-līlā in Vṛndāvana, or with His sixteen thousand married wives at Dvārakā." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..81ce9017 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,171 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 2.7.7", + "devanagari": "कामं दहन्ति कृतिनो ननु रोषदृष्ट्या रोषं दहन्तम् उत ते न दहन्त्य् असह्यम्\nसो ऽयं यद् अन्तरम् अलं प्रविशन्बिभेति कामः कथं नु पुनर् अस्य मनः श्रयेत", + "transliteration": "kāmaṁ dahanti kṛtino nanu roṣa-dṛṣṭyā\nroṣaṁ dahantam uta te na dahanty asahyam\nso 'yaṁ yad antaram alaṁ praviśan bibheti\nkāmaḥ kathaṁ nu punar asya manaḥ śrayeta", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kāmam", + "meanings": [ + "lust" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dahanti", + "meanings": [ + "chastises" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "great stalwarts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nanu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "roṣa-dṛṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "by wrathful glance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "roṣam", + "meanings": [ + "wrath" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dahantam", + "meanings": [ + "being overwhelmed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uta", + "meanings": [ + "although" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "they" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "cannot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dahanti", + "meanings": [ + "subjugate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asahyam", + "meanings": [ + "intolerable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayam", + "meanings": [ + "Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "because" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antaram", + "meanings": [ + "within" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alam", + "meanings": [ + "however" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praviśan", + "meanings": [ + "entering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bibheti", + "meanings": [ + "is afraid of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "lust" + ] + }, + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "how" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nu", + "meanings": [ + "as a matter of fact" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "His" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrayeta", + "meanings": [ + "take shelter of." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Great stalwarts like Lord Śiva can, by their wrathful glance, overcome lust and vanquish him, yet they cannot be free from the overwhelming effects of their own wrath.

The Lord, however, assumed the incarnation of half-man and half-lion, which was beyond the imagination of a materialistic demon like Hiraṇyakaśipu, and thus, keeping pace with the benediction of Brahmājī, the Lord killed him. He killed him on His lap, so that he was killed neither on the land nor on the water nor in the sky.

The leader of the elephants was much distressed when he was attacked by the crocodile. Although the elephant is always stronger than the crocodile, the latter is stronger than the elephant when it is in the water. And because the elephant was a great devotee of the Lord in his previous birth, he was able to chant the holy name of the Lord by dint of his past good deeds. Every living entity is always distressed in this material world because this place is such that in every step one has to meet with some kind of distress. But one who is supported by his past good deeds engages himself in the devotional service of the Lord, as is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.19). Those who are supported by impious acts cannot be engaged in the devotional service of the Lord, even though they are distressed. This is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.15). The Personality of Godhead Hari appeared at once on the back of His eternal bearer Garuḍa and delivered the elephant.", + "The elephant was conscious of his relation with the Supreme Lord. He addressed the Lord as ādi-puruṣa, or the original enjoyer. Both the Lord and the living beings are conscious and are therefore enjoyers, but the Lord is the original enjoyer because He is the creator of everything. In a family, both the father and his sons are undoubtedly enjoyers, but the father is the original enjoyer, and the sons are subsequent enjoyers. A pure devotee knows well that everything in the universe is the property of the Lord, and a living entity can enjoy a thing as ordained by the Lord. A living being cannot even touch a thing which is not alloted to him. This idea of the original enjoyer is explained very nicely in the Īśopaniṣad. One who knows this difference between the Lord and himself never accepts anything without first offering it to the Lord.", + "The elephant addressed the Lord as akhila-loka-nātha, or the Lord of the universe, and as such He is the Lord of the elephant also. The elephant, being a pure devotee of the Lord, specifically deserved to be saved from the attack of the crocodile, and because it is a promise of the Lord that His devotee will never be vanquished, it was quite befitting that the elephant called upon the Lord to protect him, and the merciful Lord also at once responded. The Lord is the protector of everyone, but He is the first protector of one who acknowledges the superiority of the Lord without being so falsely proud as to deny the superiority of the Lord or to claim to be equal to Him. He is ever superior. A pure devotee of the Lord knows this difference between the Lord and himself. Therefore a pure devotee is given first preference because of his full dependence, whereas the person who denies the existence of the Lord and declares himself the Lord is called asura, and as such he is given protection by the strength of limited power subject to the sanction of the Lord. Since the Lord is superior to everyone, His perfection is also superior. No one can imagine it.", + "The elephant addressed the Lord as tīrtha-śravaḥ, or \"famous as the place of pilgrimage.\" People go to places of pilgrimage in order to be delivered from the reactions of unknown sinful acts. But one can be freed from all sinful reactions simply by remembering His holy name. The Lord is therefore as good as the holy places of pilgrimage. One can be free from all sinful reactions after reaching a place of pilgrimage, but one can have the same benefit at home or at any place simply by chanting the holy name of the Lord. For a pure devotee, there is no need to go to the holy place of pilgrimage. He can be delivered from all sinful acts simply by remembering the Lord in earnestness. A pure devotee of the Lord never commits any sinful acts, but because the whole world is full of the sinful atmosphere, even a pure devotee may commit a sin unconsciously, as a matter of course. One who commits sinful acts consciously cannot be worthy of becoming a devotee of the Lord, but a pure devotee who unconsciously does something sinful is certainly delivered by the Lord because a pure devotee remembers the Lord always.", + "The Lord's holy name is called śravaṇa-maṅgala. This means that everything auspicious is received simply by hearing the holy name. In another place in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, His holy name is described as puṇya-śravaṇakīrtana. It is a pious act simply to chant and hear all about the Lord. The Lord descends on this earth and acts like others in connection with the activities of the world just to create subject matter for hearing about Him; otherwise the Lord has nothing to do in this world, nor has He any obligation to do anything. He comes out of His own causeless mercy and acts as He desires, and the Vedas and Purāṇas are full of descriptions of His different activities so that people in general may naturally be eager to hear and read something about His activities. Generally, however, the modern fictions and novels of the world occupy a greater part of people's valuable time.

One cannot possess all this illusory paraphernalia, created by māyā, permanently. Such a possessor is more illusioned in the matter of his self-realization; therefore one should possess less or nothing, so that he may be free from artificial prestige. We are contaminated in the material world by association with the three modes of material nature. Therefore, the more one is spiritually advanced by devotional service to the Lord, in exchange for his temporary possessions, the more one is freed from the attachment of material illusion. And to achieve this stage of life one must be firmly convinced about spiritual existence and its permanent effects. To know exactly the permanency of spiritual existence, one must voluntarily practice to possess less or the minimum only to maintain the material existence without any difficulty. One should not create artificial needs. That will help one to be satisfied with the minimum. Artificial needs of life are activities of the senses. The modern advancement of civilization is based on these activities of the senses, or, in other words, it is the civilization of sense gratification. Perfect civilization is the civilization of ātmā, or the soul proper. The civilized man of sense gratification is on an equal level with animals because animals cannot go beyond the activities of the senses. Above the senses there is the mind. The civilization of mental speculation is also not the perfect stage of life because above the mind there is the intelligence, and the Bhagavad-gītā gives us information of the intellectual civilization. The Vedic literatures give different directions for the human civilization, including the civilization of the senses, of the mind, of intelligence, and the civilization of the soul proper. The Bhagavad-gītā primarily deals with the intelligence of man, leading one to the progressive path of the civilization of the spirit soul. And Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the complete human civilization dealing with the subject matter of the soul proper.

Unless one is inclined to be a devotee of the Lord, he cannot enter into the intracacies of devotional service. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa wanted to explain the Bhagavad-gītā, which is the science of devotional service, unto Śrī Arjuna because Arjuna was not only a friend of Lord Kṛṣṇa, but was a great devotee as well. The whole process is that all living entities, being constitutionally parts and parcels of the supreme living being, the Absolute Personality of Godhead, have proportionately minute independence of action also. So the preliminary qualification for entering into the devotional service of the Lord is that one become a willing cooperator, and as such one should voluntarily cooperate with persons who are already engaged in the transcendental devotional service of the Lord. By cooperating with such persons, the prospective candidate will gradually learn the techniques of devotional service, and with the progress of such learning one becomes proportionately free from the contamination of material association. Such a purificatory process will establish the prospective candidate in firm faith and gradually elevate him to the stage of transcendental taste for such devotional service. Thus he acquires a genuine attachment for the devotional service of the Lord, and his conviction carries him on to the point of ecstasy, just prior to the stage of transcendental love.", + "Such knowledge of devotional service may be divided into two sections, namely preliminary knowledge of the nature of devotional service and the secondary knowledge of execution. Bhāgavatam is in relation with the Personality of Godhead, His beauty, fame, opulence, dignity, attraction and transcendental qualities which attract one towards Him for exchange of love and affection. There is a natural affinity of the living entity for the loving service of the Lord. This affinity becomes artificially covered by the influence of material association, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam helps one very genuinely remove that artificial covering. Therefore it is particularly mentioned herein that Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam acts like the lamp of transcendental knowledge. These two sections of transcendental knowledge in devotional service become revealed to a person who is a soul surrendered unto Vāsudeva; as it is said in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.19), such a great soul, fully surrendered unto the lotus feet of Vāsudeva, is very, very rare." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..16e5e26f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,130 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 2.7.20", + "devanagari": "चक्रं च दिक्ष्व् अविहतं दशसु स्वतेजो मन्वन्तरेषु मनुवंशधरो बिभर्ति\nदुष्टेषु राजसु दमं व्यदधात्स्वकीर्तिं सत्ये त्रिपृष्ठ उशतीं प्रथयंश्चरित्रैः", + "transliteration": "cakraṁ ca dikṣv avihataṁ daśasu sva-tejo\nmanvantareṣu manu-vaṁśa-dharo bibharti\nduṣṭeṣu rājasu damaṁ vyadadhāt sva-kīrtiṁ\nsatye tri-pṛṣṭha uśatīṁ prathayaṁś caritraiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "cakram", + "meanings": [ + "the Sudarśana wheel of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "as well as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dikṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in all directions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avihatam", + "meanings": [ + "without being deterred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daśasu", + "meanings": [ + "ten sides" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-tejaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "personal strength" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manvantareṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in different incarnations of Manu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manu-vaṁśa-dharaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "as the descendant of the Manu dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bibharti", + "meanings": [ + "rules over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duṣṭeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "unto the miscreants" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājasu", + "meanings": [ + "upon the kings of that type" + ] + }, + { + "word": "damam", + "meanings": [ + "subjection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyadadhāt", + "meanings": [ + "performed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-kīrtim", + "meanings": [ + "personal glories" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satye", + "meanings": [ + "in the Satyaloka planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tri-pṛṣṭhe", + "meanings": [ + "the three planetary systems" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uśatīm", + "meanings": [ + "glorious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prathayan", + "meanings": [ + "established" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caritraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "characteristics." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As the incarnation of Manu, the Lord became the descendant of the Manu dynasty and ruled over the miscreant kingly order, subjecting them by His powerful wheel weapon.

Such extensions of the Lord are divided into two divisions, namely personal and differential. Personal expansions are called the Viṣṇu-tattvas, and the differential expansions are called the jīva-tattvas. And in such expansional activity, Lord Baladeva is the first personal expansion of Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa, as well as in the Mahābhārata, both Kṛṣṇa and Baladeva are mentioned as having beautiful black hair, even in Their advanced age. The Lord is called anupalakṣya-mārgaḥ or, in still more technical Vedic terms, avāṅ-manasā gocara: one who is never to be seen or realized by the limited sense perception of the people in general. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said by the Lord, nāhaṁ prakāśaḥ sarvasya yogamāyā samāvṛtaḥ (Bg. 7.25). In other words, He reserves the right of not being exposed to anyone and everyone. Only the bona fide devotees can know Him by His specific symptoms, and out of such many, many symptoms, one symptom is mentioned here in this verse, that the Lord is sita-kṛṣṇa-keśaḥ, or one who is observed always with beautiful black hair. Both Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Baladeva have such hair on Their heads, and thus even in advanced age They appeared like young boys sixteen years old. That is the particular symptom of the Personality of Godhead. In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is stated that although He is the oldest personality among all the living entities, still He always looks like a new, youthful boy. That is the characteristic of a spiritual body. The material body is symptomized by birth, death, old age and diseases, but the spiritual body is conspicuous by the absence of those symptoms. Living entities who reside in the Vaikuṇṭhalokas in eternal life and bliss have the same type of spiritual body, without being affected by any signs of old age. It is described in the Bhāgavatam (Canto Six) that the party of Viṣṇudūtas who came to deliver Ajāmila from the clutches of the party of Yamarāja appeared like youthful boys, corroborating the description in this verse. It is ascertained thus that the spiritual bodies in the Vaikuṇṭhalokas, either of the Lord or of the other inhabitants, are completely distinct from the material bodies of this world. Therefore, when the Lord descends from that world to this world, He descends in His spiritual body of Ātma-māyā or internal potency, without any touch of the bahiraṅgā-māyā or external material energy. The allegation that the impersonal Brahman appears in this material world by accepting a material body is quite absurd. Therefore the Lord, when He comes here, has not a material body, but a spiritual body. The impersonal brahmajyoti is only the glaring effulgence of the body of the Lord, and there is no difference in quality between the body of the Lord and the impersonal ray of the Lord, called brahmajyoti.", + "Now the question is why the Lord, who is omnipotent, comes here to diminish the burden of the world, created by the unscrupulous kingly order. Certainly the Lord does not need to come here personally for such purposes, but He actually descends to exhibit His transcendental activities in order to encourage His pure devotees, who want to enjoy life by chanting the glories of the Lord. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is stated (Bg. 9.13-14) that the mahātmās, great devotees of the Lord, take pleasure in chanting of the activities of the Lord. All Vedic literatures are meant for turning one's attention towards the Lord and His transcendental activities. Thus the activities of the Lord, in His dealings with worldly people, create a subject matter for discussion by His pure devotees." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/27.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/27.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c44f5b63 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/27.json @@ -0,0 +1,131 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 27, + "reference": "SB 2.7.27", + "devanagari": "तोकेन जीवहरणं यद् उलूकिकायास्त्रैमासिकस्य च पदा शकटो ऽपवृत्तः\nयद्रिंगतान्तरगतेन दिविस्पृशोर्वा उन्मूलनं त्व् इतरथार्जुनयोर्न भाव्यम्", + "transliteration": "tokena jīva-haraṇaṁ yad ulūki-kāyās\ntrai-māsikasya ca padā śakaṭo 'pavṛttaḥ\nyad riṅgatāntaragatena divi-spṛśor vā\nunmūlanaṁ tv itarathārjunayor na bhāvyam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tokena", + "meanings": [ + "by a child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jīva-haraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "killing a living being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "one which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ulūki-kāyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "assumed the giant body of a demon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "trai-māsikasya", + "meanings": [ + "of one who is only three months old" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padā", + "meanings": [ + "by the leg" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śakaṭaḥ upavṛttaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "turned over the cart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "one who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "riṅgatā", + "meanings": [ + "while crawling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antara-gatena", + "meanings": [ + "being overtaken" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divi", + "meanings": [ + "high in the sky" + ] + }, + { + "word": "spṛśoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "either" + ] + }, + { + "word": "unmūlanam", + "meanings": [ + "uprooting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "itarathā", + "meanings": [ + "anyone else than" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arjunayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the two arjuna trees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na bhāvyam", + "meanings": [ + "was not possible." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "There is no doubt about Lord Kṛṣṇa's being the Supreme Lord, otherwise how was it possible for Him to kill a giant demon like Pūtanā when He was just on the lap of His mother, to overturn a cart with His leg when He was only three months old, to uproot a pair of arjuna trees, so high that they touched the sky, when He was only crawling. All these activities are not possible for anyone other than the Lord Himself.", + "purport": [ + "One cannot manufacture a God by one's mental speculation or by numerical votes, as has become a practice for the less intelligent class of men. God is God eternally, and an ordinary living entity is eternally a part and parcel of God. God is one without a second, and the ordinary living entities are many without number. All such living entities are maintained by God Himself, and that is the verdict of the Vedic literatures. When Kṛṣṇa was on the lap of His mother, the demon Pūtanā appeared before His mother and prayed to nurture the child in her lap. Mother Yaśodā agreed, and the child was transferred onto the lap of Pūtanā, who was in the garb of a respectable lady. Pūtanā wanted to kill the child by smearing poison on the nipple of her breast. But when everything was complete, the Lord sucked her breast along with her very air of life, and the demon's gigantic body, said to be as long as six miles, fell down. But Lord Kṛṣṇa did not need to expand Himself to the length of the she-demon Pūtanā, although He was quite competent to extend Himself more than six miles long. In His Vāmana incarnation He posed Himself as a dwarf brāhmaṇa, but when He took possession of His land, promised by Bali Mahārāja, He expanded His footstep to the top end of the universe, extending over thousands and millions of miles. So it was not very difficult for Kṛṣṇa to perform a miracle by extending His bodily feature, but He had no desire to do it because of His deep filial love for His mother, Yaśodā. If Yaśodā would have seen Kṛṣṇa in her lap extending six miles to cope with the she-demon Pūtanā, then the natural filial love of Yaśodā would have been hurt because in that way Yaśodā would come to know that her so-called son, Kṛṣṇa, was God Himself. And with the knowledge of the Godhead of Kṛṣṇa, Yaśodāmayī would have lost the temper of her love for Kṛṣṇa as a natural mother. But as far as Lord Kṛṣṇa is concerned, He is God always, either as a child on the lap of His mother, or as the coverer of the universe, Vāmanadeva. He does not require to become God by undergoing severe penances, although some men think of becoming God in that way. By undergoing severe austerities and penances, one cannot become one or equal with God, but one can attain most of the godly qualities. A living being can attain godly qualities to a large extent, but he cannot become God; whereas Kṛṣṇa, without undergoing any type of penance, is God always, either in the lap of His mother or growing up or at any stage of growth.", + "So at the age of only three months He killed the Śakaṭāsura who remained hidden behind a cart in the house of Yaśodāmayī. And when He was crawling and was disturbing His mother from doing household affairs, the mother tied Him with a grinding pestle, but the naughty child dragged the pestle up to a pair of very high arjuna trees in the yard of Yaśodāmayī, and when the pestel was stuck in between the pair of trees, they fell down with a horrible sound. When Yaśodāmayī came to see the happenings, she thought that her child was saved from the falling trees by the mercy of the Lord, without knowing that the Lord Himself, crawling in her yard, had wreaked the havoc. So that is the way of reciprocation of love affairs between the Lord and His devotees. Yaśodāmayī wanted to have the Lord as her child, and the Lord played exactly like a child in her lap, but at the same time played the part of the Almighty Lord whenever it was so required. The beauty of such pastimes was that the Lord fulfilled everyone's desire. In the case of felling the gigantic arjuna tree, the Lord's mission was to deliver the two sons of Kuvera, who were condemned to become trees by the curse of Nārada, as well as to play like a crawling child in the yard of Yaśodā, who took transcendental pleasure in seeing such activities of the Lord in the very yard of her home.", + "The Lord in any condition is Lord of the universe, and He can act as such in any form, gigantic or small, as He likes." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/28.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/28.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..847918a4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/28.json @@ -0,0 +1,139 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 28, + "reference": "SB 2.7.28", + "devanagari": "यद्वै व्रजे व्रजपशून्विषतोयपीतान्पालांस्त्व् अजीवयद् अनुग्रहदृष्टिवृष्ट्या\nतच्छुद्धये ऽतिविषवीर्यविलोलजिह्वम् उच्चाटयिष्यद् उरगं विहरन्ह्रदिन्याम्", + "transliteration": "yad vai vraje vraja-paśūn viṣatoya-pītān\npālāṁs tv ajīvayad anugraha-dṛṣṭi-vṛṣṭyā\ntac-chuddhaye 'ti-viṣa-vīrya-vilola-jihvam\nuccāṭayiṣyad uragaṁ viharan hradinyām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "one who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vraje", + "meanings": [ + "at Vṛndāvana" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vraja-paśūn", + "meanings": [ + "the animals thereof" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣa-toya", + "meanings": [ + "poisoned water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pītān", + "meanings": [ + "those who drank" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pālān", + "meanings": [ + "the cowherd men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajīvayat", + "meanings": [ + "brought to life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anugraha-dṛṣṭi", + "meanings": [ + "merciful glance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "by the showers of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuddhaye", + "meanings": [ + "for purification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ati", + "meanings": [ + "exceedingly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣa-vīrya", + "meanings": [ + "highly potent poison" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilola", + "meanings": [ + "lurking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jihvam", + "meanings": [ + "one who has such a tongue" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uccāṭayiṣyat", + "meanings": [ + "severely punished" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uragam", + "meanings": [ + "unto the snake" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viharan", + "meanings": [ + "taking it as a pleasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hradinyām", + "meanings": [ + "in the river." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Then also when the cowherd boys and their animals drank the poisoned water of the River Yamunā, and after the Lord [in His childhood] revived them by His merciful glance, just to purify the water of the River Yamunā He jumped into it as if playing and chastised the venomous Kāliya snake, which was lurking there, its tongue emitting waves of poison.

Actually there was no arrest of Nanda Mahārāja by Varuṇa because the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana were always engaged in thinking of Kṛṣṇa, in constant meditation on the Personality of Godhead in a particular form of samādhi, or trance of bhakti-yoga. They had no fear of the miseries of material existence. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is confirmed that to be in association with the Supreme Personality of Godhead by full surrender in transcendental love frees one from the miseries inflicted by the laws of material nature. Here it is clearly mentioned that the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana were extensively busy in the hard labor of their day's work, and due to the day's hard labor they were engaged in sound sleep at night. So practically they had very little time to devote to meditation or to the other paraphernalia of spiritual activities. But factually they were engaged in the highest spiritual activities only.

The demigods are engaged by the Lord as controlling deities of the material affairs, and according to the Bhagavad-gītā, when a demigod is worshiped the process is accepted as the indirect method for worshiping the Supreme Lord. But when the Supreme Lord is worshiped directly there is no need of worshiping the demigods or offering them sacrifices as is recommended in particular circumstances. Lord Kṛṣṇa therefore advised the inhabitants of the Vrajabhūmi not to offer any sacrifices to the heavenly King Indra. But Indra, not knowing Lord Kṛṣṇa in Vrajabhūmi, was angry at the inhabitants of Vrajabhūmi and tried to avenge the offense. But, competent as the Lord was, He saved the inhabitants and animals of Vrajabhūmi by His personal energy and proved definitely that anyone who is directly engaged as a devotee of the Supreme Lord need not satisfy any other demigods, however great, even to the level of Brahmā or Śiva. Thus this incidence definitely proved without a doubt that Lord Kṛṣṇa is the Personality of Godhead and He was so in all circumstances, as a child on the lap of His mother, as a boy seven years old, and as an old man of 125 years of age.

It is a common-sense religion because one is advised to do no harm to any other animal or living being because such harmful actions are equally harmful to him who does the harm. But before learning these principles of nonviolence one has to learn two other principles, namely to be humble and to be prideless. Unless one is humble and prideless, one cannot be harmless and nonviolent. And after being nonviolent one has to learn tolerance and simplicity of living. One must offer respects to the great religious preachers and spiritual leaders and also train the senses for controlled action, learning to be unattached to family and home, and enacting devotional service to the Lord, etc. At the ultimate stage one has to accept the Lord and become His devotee; otherwise there is no religion. In religious principles there must be God in the center, otherwise simple moral instructions are simply subreligious principles, generally known as upadharma, or nearness to religious principles." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/38.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/38.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..79e7cd60 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/38.json @@ -0,0 +1,165 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 38, + "reference": "SB 2.7.38", + "devanagari": "यर्ह्य् आलयेष्व् अपि सतां न हरेः कथाः स्युः पाषण्डिनो द्विजजना वृषला नृदेवाः\nस्वाहा स्वधा वषड् इति स्म गिरो न यत्र शास्ता भविष्यति कलेर्भगवान्युगान्ते", + "transliteration": "yarhy ālayeṣv api satāṁ na hareḥ kathāḥ syuḥ\npāṣaṇḍino dvija-janā vṛṣalā nṛdevāḥ\nsvāhā svadhā vaṣaḍ iti sma giro na yatra\nśāstā bhaviṣyati kaler bhagavān yugānte", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yarhi", + "meanings": [ + "when it would so happen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ālayeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in the residence of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satām", + "meanings": [ + "civilized gentlemen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "no" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kathāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "topics" + ] + }, + { + "word": "syuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "would take place" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāṣaṇḍinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "atheists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvija-janāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "persons declaring themselves to be the higher three classes (brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and vaiśyas)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛṣalāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the lower class śūdras" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛ-devāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "ministers of the government" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svāhā", + "meanings": [ + "hymns to perform sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svadhā", + "meanings": [ + "the ingredients to perform sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaṣaṭ", + "meanings": [ + "the altar of sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sma", + "meanings": [ + "shall" + ] + }, + { + "word": "giraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "anywhere" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śāstā", + "meanings": [ + "the chastiser" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaviṣyati", + "meanings": [ + "would appear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaleḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Kali age" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yuga-ante", + "meanings": [ + "at the end of." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter, at the end of Kali-yuga, when there would exist no topics on the subject of God, even at the residences of so-called saints and respectable gentlemen of the three higher castes, and when the power of government would be transferred to the hands of ministers elected from the lowborn śūdra class or those less than them, and when there would be nothing known of the techniques of sacrifice, even by word, at that time the Lord would appear as the supreme chastiser.", + "purport": [ + "The symptoms of the worst conditions of the material world, at the last stage of this age, called Kali-yuga, are stated herein.

As such, all of them will practically forget even the holy name of the Lord, and what to speak of His activities. The higher castes of society, namely the intelligent class of men guiding the destinies of the social orders, the administrative class of men guiding the law and order of the society, and the productive class of men guiding the economic development of the society, must all be properly well versed in knowledge of the Supreme Lord, knowing factually His name, quality, pastimes, entourage, paraphernalia and personalities. The saints and the higher castes or orders of the society are judged by their proportion of knowledge in the science of God, or tattva-jñāna, and not by any kind of birthright or bodily designations. Such designations, without any knowledge of the science of God and practical knowledge of devotional service, are considered to be but decorations of dead bodies. And when there is too much inflation of these decorated dead bodies in society, there develop so many anomalies in the progressive, peaceful life of the human being. Because of the lack of training or culture in the upper section of the social orders, they are no more to be designated as the dvija-janas, or the twice-born. The significance of being twice-born has been explained in many places in these great literatures, and again one is being reminded herewith that birth, executed by the sex life of the father and the mother, is called animal birth. But such animal birth and progress of life on the animal principles of eating, sleeping, fearing and mating (without any scientific culture of spiritual life) is called the śūdra life, or, to be more explicit, the uncultured life of the lower class of men. It is stated herein that the governmental power of the society in the Kali-yuga would be passed over to the uncultured, godless laborer classes of men, and thus the nṛdevas (or the ministers of the government) would be the vṛṣalas, or the uncultured lower-class men of society. No one can expect any peace and prosperity in a human society full of uncultured lower classes of men. The symptoms of such uncultured social animals are already in vogue, and it is the duty of the leaders of men to take note of it and try to reform the social order by introducing the principles of twice-born men trained in the science of God consciousness. This can be done by expanding the culture of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam all over the world.

Unless, therefore, one is saved from the wrong conception of the body and the soul, there is no knowledge of Godhead, and unless there is knowledge of God, all advancement of material civilization, however dazzling, should be considered to be a failure." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/43.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/43.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..427d6436 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/43.json @@ -0,0 +1,130 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 43, + "reference": "SB 2.7.43-45", + "devanagari": "वेदाहम् अंग परमस्य हि योगमायां यूयं भवश्च भगवान् अथ दैत्यवर्यः\nपत्नी मनोः स च मनुश्च तदात्मजाश्च प्राचीनबर्हिर् ऋभुर् अंग उत ध्रुवश्च\nइक्ष्वाकुर् ऐलमुचुकुन्दविदेहगाधि रघ्वम्बरीषसगरा गयनाहुषाद्याः\nमान्धात्रलर्कशतधन्वनुरन्तिदेवा देवव्रतो बलिर् अमूर्त्तरयो दिलीपः\nसौभर्युतंकशिबिदेवलपिप्पलाद सारस्वतोद्धवपराशरभूरिषेणाः\nये ऽन्ये विभीषणहनूमदुपेन्द्रदत्त पार्थार्ष्टिषेणविदुरश्रुतदेववर्याः", + "transliteration": "vedāham aṅga paramasya hi yoga-māyāṁ\nyūyaṁ bhavaś ca bhagavān atha daitya-varyaḥ\npatnī manoḥ sa ca manuś ca tad-ātmajāś ca\nprācīnabarhir ṛbhur aṅga uta dhruvaś ca\nikṣvākur aila-mucukunda-videha-gādhi-\nraghv-ambarīṣa-sagarā gaya-nāhuṣādyāḥ\nmāndhātralarka-śatadhanvanu-rantidevā\ndevavrato balir amūrttarayo dilīpaḥ\nsaubharyutaṅka-śibi-devala-pippalāda-\nsārasvatoddhava-parāśara-bhūriṣeṇāḥ\nye 'nye vibhīṣaṇa-hanūmad-upendradatta-\npārthārṣṭiṣeṇa-vidura-śrutadeva-varyāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "veda", + "meanings": [ + "know it" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "myself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅga", + "meanings": [ + "O Nārada" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paramasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga-māyām", + "meanings": [ + "potency" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yūyam", + "meanings": [ + "yourself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the great demigod" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "as also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daitya-varyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Prahlāda Mahārāja, the great devotee of the Lord born in the family of the atheist" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patnī", + "meanings": [ + "Śatarūpā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of Manu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Svāyambhuva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-ātmajāḥ ca", + "meanings": [ + "and his children like Priyavrata, Uttānapāda, Devahūti, etc." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Nārada, although the potencies of the Lord are unknowable and immeasurable, still, because we are all surrendered souls, we know how He acts through yogamāyā potencies.

For example there are many millions and billions of planets far, far beyond the scientist's calculation. But these are only the manifestations of the Lord's material energy. What can the scientist hope to know of the spiritual potency of the Lord by such material efforts? Mental speculations, by adding some dozens of \"if's\" and \"maybe's,\" cannot aid the advancement of knowledge—on the contrary, such mental speculation will only end in despair by dismissing the case abruptly and declaring the nonexistence of God. The sane person, therefore, ceases to speculate on subjects beyond the jurisdiction of his tiny brain, and as a matter of course he tries to learn to surrender unto the Supreme Lord, who alone can lead one to the platform of real knowledge. In the Upaniṣads it is clearly said that the Supreme Personality of Godhead can never be known simply by working very hard and taxing the good brain, nor can He be known simply by mental speculation and jugglery of words. The Lord is knowable only by one who is a surrendered soul. Herein Brahmājī, the greatest of all material living beings, acknowledges this truth.

The answer to such questions or inquiries is given herein very properly. The Personality of Godhead may not be present before one's eyes, but if one is sincere in wanting such guidance the Lord will send a bona fide person who can guide one properly back to home, back to Godhead. There is no need of material qualifications for making progress in the path of spiritual realization. In the material world, when one accepts some particular type of service, he is required to possess some particular type of qualification also. Without this one is unfit for such service. But in the devotional service of the Lord the only qualification required is surrender. Surrendering oneself is in one's own hand. If one likes, he can surrender immediately without any delay, and that begins his spiritual life. The bona fide representative of God is as good as God Himself. Or, in other words, the loving representative of the Lord is more kind and more easy to approach. A sinful soul cannot approach the Lord directly, but such a sinful man can very easily approach a pure devotee of the Lord.

The conception of impersonal Brahman realization is the first step, due to His distinction from the illusory conception of material existence. In other words, impersonal Brahman is a feature of the Absolute distinct from the material variegatedness, just as light is a conception distinct from its counterpart, darkness. But the light has its variegatedness, which is seen by those who further advance in the light, and thus the ultimate realization of Brahman is the source of the Brahman light, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the summum bonum or the ultimate source of everything. Therefore, meeting the Personality of Godhead includes the realization of the impersonal Brahman as realized at first in contrast with material inebriety. The Personality of Godhead is the third step of Brahman realization. As explained in the First Canto, one must understand all three features of the Absolute—Brahman, Paramātmā, and Bhagavān.", + "Pratibodha-mātram is just the opposite conception of material existence.

That is the primary conception of impersonal Brahman.", + "The Supreme Lord is the Supreme Soul of everything, and therefore in the supreme conception affection is realized. The conception of affection is due to the relationship of soul to soul. A father is affectionate to his son because there is some relationship of nearness between the son and the father. But that sort of affection in the material world is full of inebriety. When the Personality of Godhead is met, the fullness of affection becomes manifested because of the reality of the affectionate relationship. He is not the object of affection by material tinges of body and mind, but He is the full, naked uncontaminated object of affection for all living entities because He is the Supersoul or Paramātmā within everyone's heart. In the liberated state of affairs, the full-fledged affection for the Lord is awakened.", + "As such, there is an unlimited flow of happiness, everlasting, without any fear of being broken as we have experienced here in the material world. The relationship with the Lord is never broken; thus there is no grief and no fear. Such happiness is inexplicable by words, and there can be no attempt to generate such happiness by fruitive activities by arrangement and sacrifices. But we must know also that happiness, unbroken happiness, exchanged with the Supreme Person, the Personality of Godhead as described in this verse, transcends the impersonal conception of the Upaniṣads. In the Upaniṣads the description is more or less negation of the material conception of things, but this is not denial of the transcendental senses of the Supreme Lord. Herein also the same is affirmed in the statements about the material elements; they are all transcendental, free from all contamination of material identification. And also the liberated souls are not devoid of senses; otherwise there cannot be any reciprocation of unhampered spiritual happiness exchanged between them in spontaneous unbroken joy. All the senses, both of the Lord and of the devotees, are without any material contamination. They are so because they are beyond the material cause and effects, as it is clearly mentioned herein (sad-asataḥ param). The illusory material energy cannot work there, being ashamed before the Lord and His transcendental devotees. In the material world the sense activities are not without grief, but here it is clearly said that the senses of the Lord and the devotees are without any grief. There is a distinct difference between the material and spiritual senses. And it should be understood without denying the spiritual senses because of a material conception.", + "The senses in the material world are surcharged with material ignorance. In every way the authorities have recommended purification of the senses from the material conception. In the material world the senses are manipulated for individual and personal satisfaction, whereas in the spiritual world the senses are properly used for the purpose for which they were originally meant, namely the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord. Such sensual activities are natural, and therefore sense gratification there is uninterrupted and unbroken by material contamination because the senses are spiritually purified. And such satisfaction of the senses is equally shared by the transcendental reciprocators. Since the activities are unlimited and constantly increasing, there is no scope for material attempts or artificial arrangements. Such happiness of transcendental quality is called brahma-saukhyam, which will be clearly described in the Fifth Canto." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/48.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/48.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..584fcb67 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/48.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 48, + "reference": "SB 2.7.48", + "devanagari": "सध्र्यङ्नियम्य यतयो यमकर्तहेतिं जह्युः स्वराड् इव निपानखनित्रम् इन्द्रः", + "transliteration": "sadhryaṅ niyamya yatayo yama-karta-hetiṁ\njahyuḥ svarāḍ iva nipāna-khanitram indraḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sadhryaṅ", + "meanings": [ + "artificial mental speculation or meditation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niyamya", + "meanings": [ + "controlling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mystics" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yama-karta-hetim", + "meanings": [ + "the process of spiritual culture" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jahyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "are given up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svarāṭ", + "meanings": [ + "fully independent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nipāna", + "meanings": [ + "well" + ] + }, + { + "word": "khanitram", + "meanings": [ + "trouble for digging" + ] + }, + { + "word": "indraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the controlling demigod supplying rains." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In such a transcendental state there is no need of artificial control of the mind, mental speculation or meditation, as performed by the jñānīs and yogīs.

It is for this reason that the great liberated souls also desire to be associated in hearing and chanting the activities of the Lord. The example of Indra is very appropriate in this connection. King Indra of heaven is the controlling deity or demigod for arranging clouds and supplying rains in the universe, and as such he does not have to take the trouble to dig a well for his personal water supply. For him, digging a well for a water supply is simply ludicrous. Similarly, those who are factually engaged in the loving service of the Lord have attained the ultimate goal of life, and for them there is no need of mental speculation to find out the true nature of God or His activities.

It is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā also (Bg. 4.11) that the Lord awards similar results, as one desires, in one's present life. The living entities are given freedom to make their choice, and the Lord awards them accordingly.", + "It is the duty of everyone, therefore, to worship devoutly only the Personality of Godhead to achieve his desired goal. The impersonalist, instead of speculating or meditating, can directly execute the routine devotional service of the Lord and thus easily obtain the desired goal.", + "The devotees, however, are naturally inclined to become associates of the Lord without being merged in the spiritual existence, as conceived by the impersonalist. The devotees, therefore, following their constitutional instincts, achieve the desired goal of becoming servitors, friends, fathers, mothers or conjugal lovers of the Lord. The devotional service of the Lord involves nine transcendental processes of hearing and chanting, etc., and by performing such easy and natural devotional services the devotees achieve the highest perfectional results, far, far superior to merging into the existence of the Brahman. The devotees are, therefore, never advised to indulge in speculating upon the nature of the Supreme, or artificially meditating on the void.", + "One should not, however, misunderstand that after the annihilation of this present body there is no body by which one can associate with the Lord face to face. The living entity is unborn. It is not that he is manifest with the creation of the material body. On the other hand, it is true that the material body develops only by the desire of the living entity. The evolution of the material body is due to such desires of the living being. According to the desires of the living being, the material body develops. So from the spirit soul the material body comes into existence, generated from the living force. As the living being is eternal, so he exists just like the air within the body. Air is within and without the body. Therefore when the external covering, the material body, is vanquished, the living spark, like the air within the body, continues to exist. And by the direction of the Lord, because He is the ultimate benefactor, the living entity is at once awarded the necessary spiritual body befitting his association with the Lord in the manner of sārūpya (equal bodily feature), sālokya (equal facility to live in the same planet with the Lord), sārṣṭi (equal possession of opulence like the Lord), and sāmīpya (equal association with the Lord).", + "The Lord is so kind that even if a devotee of the Lord cannot fulfill the complete course of devotional service unalloyed and uncontaminated by material association, he is given another chance in the next life by being awarded a birth in the family of a devotee or rich man so that without being engaged in the struggle for material existence, the devotee can finish the remaining purification of his existence and thus immediately, after relinquishing the present body, go back home, back to Godhead. This is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā.", + "In this connection detailed information is available in the Bhagavat-sandarbha of Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī Prabhupāda. Once achieving the spiritual existence, the devotee is eternally situated there, as already discussed in the previous verse." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/50.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/50.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a65f0dbf --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/07/verses/50.json @@ -0,0 +1,112 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 50, + "reference": "SB 2.7.50", + "devanagari": "सो ऽयं ते ऽभिहितस्तात भगवान्विश्वभावनः\nसमासेन हरेर्नान्यद् अन्यस्मात्सदसच्च यत्", + "transliteration": "so 'yaṁ te 'bhihitas tāta\nbhagavān viśva-bhāvanaḥ\nsamāsena harer nānyad\nanyasmāt sad-asac ca yat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayam", + "meanings": [ + "the same" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhihitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "explained by me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāta", + "meanings": [ + "my dear son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśva-bhāvanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the creator of the manifested worlds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samāsena", + "meanings": [ + "in brief" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without Hari, the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyat", + "meanings": [ + "anything else" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "being the cause of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat", + "meanings": [ + "manifested or phenomenal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asat", + "meanings": [ + "noumenal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whatever there may be." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear son, I have now explained in brief the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is creator of the manifested worlds.

In the creation of the material world He undoubtedly assumes the gigantic body, and living entities also get bodies, big or small, according to the respective necessity. For example, an elephant gets a gigantic body according to its needs, and so also an ant gets its body according to its needs.

One who is firmly situated in devotional service of the Lord can very easily execute the function of conditional life. Living the conditional life is just like plying a boat in the middle of the ocean. One is completely at the mercy of the ocean, and at every moment there is every chance of being drowned in the ocean by slight agitation. If the atmosphere is all right, the boat can ply very easily, undoubtedly, but if there is some storm, fog, wind, or cloud, there is every possibility of being drowned in the ocean. No one can control the whims of the ocean, however one may be materially well equipped. One who has crossed the oceans by ship may have sufficient experience of such dependence upon the mercy of the ocean. But one can ply over the ocean of material existence by the grace of the Lord very easily, without any fear of storm or fog. It all depends on the will of the Lord; no one can help if there is some unfortunate danger in the state of conditional life. The devotees of the Lord, however, cross the ocean of material existence without anxiety because a pure devotee is always protected by the Lord (Bg. 9.13). The Lord gives special attention to His devotees in their activities within material, conditional life. (Bg. 9.29) Therefore everyone should take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord and be a pure devotee of the Lord by all means.", + "One should know, therefore, from the expert spiritual master the advantages and disadvantages of discharging devotional service, just as Mahārāja Parīkṣit asked his spiritual master Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī. According to Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu, the science of devotional service, one should not eat more than what he requires to maintain body and soul together. Vegetable diets and milk are sufficient for maintenance of the human body, and therefore one has no need to eat anything more to satisfy the palate. One should also not accumulate money to become puffed up in the material world. One should earn his livelihood easily and honestly, for it is better to become a coolie for honest livelihood than to become a great man in the society by hook and crook. There is no harm if one becomes the richest man in the world by honest dealings, but one should not sacrifice the honest means of livelihood simply to accumulate wealth. Such an endeavor is harmful to devotional service. One should not talk nonsense. A devotee's business is to earn the favor of the Lord. Therefore a devotee should always glorify the Lord in His wonderful creations. A devotee should not decry the creation of the Lord, defying Him by saying that He has created a false world. The world is not false. Factually we have to take so many things from the world for our maintenance, so how we can say that the world is false? Similarly, how can one think of the Lord as being without form? How can one become formless and at the same time have all intelligence and consciousness, direct and indirect? So there are many things for a pure devotee to learn, and he should learn them perfectly from a bona fide personality like Śukadeva Gosvāmī.", + "The favorable conditions for discharging devotional service are that one should be very enthusiastic in serving the Lord. The Lord in His form of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted the cult of devotional service to the Lord to be preached all over the world, in every nook and corner, and therefore a pure devotee's duty is to discharge this order as far as possible. Every devotee should be very enthusiastic, not only in performing his daily rituals of devotional service, but in trying to preach the cult peacefully by following in the footsteps of Lord Caitanya. If he is not superficially successful in such an attempt, he should not be deterred from the discharge of his duty. Success or failure has no meaning for a pure devotee because he is a soldier in the field. Preaching the cult of devotional service is something like declaring war against materialistic life. There are different kinds of materialists, such as the fruitive workers, the mental speculators, the mystic jugglers, and so many others. All of them are against the existence of Godhead. They would declare that they are themselves God, although in every step and in every action they are dependent on the mercy of the Lord. Therefore a pure devotee may not associate with such gangs of atheists. A strong devotee of the Lord will not be misled by such atheistic propaganda of the nondevotees, but a neophyte devotee should be very cautious about them. A devotee should see to the right discharge of devotional service under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master and should not stick only to the formalities. Under the direction of the bona fide spiritual master one should see how much service is being executed, and not simply in the matter of rituals. A devotee should not hanker after anything, but he should be satisfied with things that may automatically come to him by the will of the Lord. That should be the principle of a devotional life. And all these principles are easily learned under the guidance of a spiritual master like Śukadeva Gosvāmī.

Pious acts are prescribed in the supplementary Vedas (smṛtis), and they are specifically mentioned in the matter of digging tanks and wells for water supply of the people in general.

The six great sages mentioned above may be great thinkers, but their knowledge by menial speculation is not perfect.

Such great sages also have their disciplic succession, but they are not authorized because such knowledge does not come directly from the independent Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nārāyaṇa. No one can be independent except Nārāyaṇa; therefore no one's knowledge can be perfect due to being dependent on the flickering mind. Mind is material, and thus knowledge presented by material speculators is never transcendental and can never become perfect. Mundane philosophers, being imperfect in themselves, disagree with other philosophers because a mundane philosopher is not a philosopher at all unless he presents his own theory. Intelligent persons like Mahārāja Parīkṣit do not recognize such mental speculators, however great they may be, but hear from the authorities like Śukadeva Gosvāmī, who is nondifferent from the Supreme Personality of Godhead by the paramparā system, as is specially stressed in the Bhagavad-gītā." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/08/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/08/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8649b577 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/08/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 2.8.26", + "devanagari": "न मे ऽसवः परायन्ति ब्रह्मन्न् अनशनादमी\nपिबतो ऽच्युतपीयूषम्तद्वाक्याब्धिविनिःसृतम्", + "transliteration": "na me 'savaḥ parāyanti\nbrahmann anaśanādamī\npibato 'cyuta-pīyūṣam\ntad vākyābdhi-viniḥsṛtam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "mine" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāyanti", + "meanings": [ + "becomes exhausted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahman", + "meanings": [ + "O learned brāhmaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anaśanāt amī", + "meanings": [ + "because of fasting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pibataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "because of my drinking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acyuta", + "meanings": [ + "the infallible" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pīyūṣam", + "meanings": [ + "nectar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vākyābdhi", + "meanings": [ + "ocean of speech" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viniḥsṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "flowing down from." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O learned brāhmaṇa, because of my drinking the nectar of the message of the infallible Personality of Godhead, which is flowing down from the ocean of your speeches, I do not feel any sort of exhaustion due to my fasting.\"", + "purport": [ + "The disciplic succession from Brahmā, Nārada, Vyāsa and Śukadeva Gosvāmī is particularly different from others.

The spirit soul is distinct from the material conception of his life, but he is absorbed in such a material conception because of being influenced by the external energy of the Lord, called ātma-māyā. This is already explained in the First Canto in connection with Vyāsadeva's realization of the Supreme Lord and His external energy. The external energy is controlled by the Lord, and the living entities are controlled by the external energy—by the will of the Lord. Therefore, although the living entity is purely conscious in his pure state, he is subordinate to the will of the Lord in being influenced by the external energy of the Lord. In the Bhagavad-gītā also the same thing is confirmed (Bg. 15.15), that the Lord is present within the heart of every living entity, and all consciousness and forgetfulness of the living entity are influenced by the Lord.", + "Now the next question will automatically be made as to why the Lord influences the living entity to such consciousness and forgetfulness. The answer is that the Lord clearly wishes that every living entity be in his pure consciousness as the part and parcel of the Lord and thus be engaged in the loving service of the Lord as he is constitutionally made; but because the living entity is partially independent also, he may not be willing to serve the Lord, but may try to become as independent as the Lord is. The whole nondevotee class of living entities are all desirous of becoming equally as powerful as the Lord, although they are not fit to become so. The living entities are illusioned by the will of the Lord because they wanted to become like Him. As a person thinks of becoming a king without possessing the necessary qualification, similarly when the living entity desires to become the Lord Himself, he is put in a condition of dreaming that he is a king. Therefore the first sinful will of the living entity is to become the Lord, and the consequent will of the Lord is that the living entity forgets his factual life and thus dreams of the land of Utopia where he may become one like the Lord. The child cries to have the moon from the mother, and the mother gives the child a mirror to satisfy the crying and disturbing child with the shadow of the moon. Similarly, the crying child of the Lord is given over to the shadow of the material world to lord it over as karmī and to give this up in frustration to become one with the Lord. Both these stages are dreaming illusions only. There is no necessity of tracing out the history when the living entity desired this.

There are 900,000 varieties of material bodies in the water, two million vegetable bodies, 1,100,000 worms and reptiles, one million forms of birds, three million different bodies of beasts, and 400,000 human forms.

Even in one particular body the living entity changes from childhood to boyhood, from boyhood to youth, from youth to old age and from old age to another body created by his own action. The living entity creates his own body by his personal desires, and the external energy of the Lord supplies him the exact form by which he can enjoy his desires to the fullest extent. The tiger wanted to enjoy the blood of another animal, and therefore, by the grace of the Lord, the material energy supplies him the body of the tiger with facilities for enjoying blood from another animal. Similarly, a living entity desiring to get the body of a demigod in the higher planet can also get it by the grace of the Lord. And if he is intelligent enough, he can desire to get a spiritual body to enjoy the company of the Lord, and he will get it.

And in the higher stage of speculative knowledge, the same misconception of \"mine\" is transformed into \"I am,\" or \"It is all I am,\" or \"I,\" etc. There are many classes of men comprehending the same misconception of \"I\" and \"mine\" in different color. But the real significance of such \"I\" can only be realized when one is situated in the consciousness of \"I am the eternal servitor of the Lord.\" This is pure consciousness, and the whole Vedic literatures teach us this conception of life.", + "The misconception of \"I am the Lord,\" or \"I am the Supreme,\" is more dangerous than the misconception of \"mine.\" Although there are sometimes directions in the Vedic literatures to think oneself one with the Lord, that does not mean that one becomes identified in every respect with the Lord. Undoubtedly there is oneness of the living entity with the Lord in many respects, but ultimately the living entity is subordinate to the Lord, and he is constitutionally meant for satisfying the senses of the Lord. The Lord therefore asks the conditioned souls to surrender unto Him. Had the living entities not been subordinate to the supreme will, why would the living entity be asked to surrender? Had the living being been equal in all respects, then why was he put under the influence of māyā? We have already discussed many times that the material energy is controlled by the Lord. The Bhagavad-gītā confirms this controlling power of the Lord over the material nature (Bg. 9.10). Can a living entity who claims to be as good as the Supreme Being control the material nature? The foolish \"I\" would reply that he would do so in the future. Even accepting that in the future one would be as good a controller of the material nature as the Supreme Being, then why is he now under the control of the material nature? The Bhagavad-gītā says that one can be freed from the control of the material nature by surrendering unto the Supreme Lord, but if there is no surrender, then the living entity will never be able to control the material nature. So this misconception of \"I\" must also be given up by practicing the way of devotional service or firmly being situated in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. A poor man without any employment or without any occupation may undergo so many troubles in life, but if by chance the same man gets a good service under the government, he at once becomes happy. There is no profit in denying the supremacy of the Lord, who is the controller of all energies, but one should be constitutionally situated in one's own glory, namely to be situated in the pure consciousness of being the eternal servitor of the Lord. In his conditional life the living entity is servant of the illusory māyā, and in his liberated state he is the pure unqualified servant of the Lord. To become untinged by the modes of material nature is the qualification for entering into the service of the Lord. As long as one is a servant of mental concoctions, one cannot be completely free from the disease of \"I\" and \"mine.\"", + "The Supreme Truth is without any contamination of the illusory energy because He is the controller of that energy. The relative truths are apt to be engrossed with illusory energy. The best purpose is, however, served when one is directly facing the supreme truth, as when one faces the sun. The sun overhead in the sky is full of light, but when the sun is not in the visible sky, all is in darkness. Similarly, when one is face to face with the Supreme Lord, he is freed from all illusions, and one who is not so is in the darkness of illusory māyā. The Bhagavad-gītā confirms this as follows:", + "māṁ ca yo 'vyabhicāreṇa bhakti-yogena sevate

(Bg. 14.26)", + "So the science of bhakti-yoga, of worshiping the Lord, glorifying the Lord, hearing the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from the right sources (not from the professional man but from a person who is Bhāgavatam in life) and being always in the association of pure devotees, should be adopted in earnestness without being misled by misconceptions of \"I\" and \"mine.\" The karmīs are fond of the conception of \"mine,\" and the jñānīs are fond of the conception of \"I,\" and both of them are unqualified to be free from the bondage of the illusory energy. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and primarily the Bhagavad-gītā, are both meant for delivering a person from the misconception of \"I\" and \"mine,\" and Śrīla Vyāsadeva transcribed them for the deliverance of the fallen souls. The living entity has to be situated in the transcendental position where there is no more influence of time nor of the material energy. In conditioned life the living entity is subjected to the influence of time in the dream of past, present and future. The mental speculator tries to conquer the influence of time by future speculation of becoming Vāsudeva or the Supreme Lord himself by means of culture of knowledge and conquering over ego. But the process is not perfect. The perfect process is to accept Lord Vāsudeva as the Supreme in everything, and the best perfection of culturing knowledge is to surrender unto Him because He is the source of everything. In that conception only can one get rid of the misconception of I and mine. Both Bhagavad-gītā and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam confirm it.

Both the Supreme Lord and the living entity are known as ātmā. The Supreme Lord is called Paramātmā or Parambrahma, and the living entity is called the ātmā or the brahma or the jīva. Both the Paramātmā and the jīvātmā, being transcendental to the material energy, are called ātmā. So Śukadeva Gosvāmī explains this verse with the aim of purifying the truth of both the Paramātmā and the jīvātmā. Generally people have many wrong conceptions about both of them. The wrong conception of the jīvātmā is to identify the material body with the pure soul, and the wrong conception of Paramātmā is to think Him on an equal level with the living entity. But both misconceptions can be removed by one stroke of bhakti-yoga, just as in the sunlight both the sun and the world and everything within the sunlight are properly seen. In the darkness no one can see the sun, nor himself, nor the world. But in the sunlight one can see the sun, himself and the world around him. Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī therefore says that for purification of both wrong conceptions, the Lord presented His eternal form before Brahmājī, being fully satisfied by Brahmā's nondeceptive vow of discharging bhakti-yoga. Except for bhakti-yoga, any method for realization of ātma-tattva, or the science of ātmā, will prove deceptive in the long run.", + "In the Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord says that only by bhakti-yoga can one know Him perfectly, and then one can enter into the science of God. Brahmājī undertook great penance in performing bhakti-yoga, and thus he was able to see the transcendental form of the Lord. His transcendental form is one hundred percent spiritual, and one can see Him only by spiritualized vision after proper discharge of tapasya or penance in pure bhakti-yoga. The form of the Lord which was manifested before Brahmā is not one of the forms with which we have experience in the material world. Brahmājī did not perform such severe types of penance just to see a form of material production. Therefore the question by Mahārāja Parīkṣit about the form of the Lord is answered. The form of the Lord is sac-cid-ānanda, or eternal, full of knowledge and full of bliss. But the material form of the living being is neither eternal, nor full of knowledge, nor blissful. That is the distinction between the form of the Lord and that of the conditioned soul. The conditioned soul, however, can regain his form of eternal knowledge and bliss simply by seeing the Lord by means of bhakti-yoga.", + "The summary is that due to ignorance the conditioned soul is encaged in the temporary varieties of material forms. But the Supreme Lord has no such temporary form like the conditioned souls. He is always possessed of an eternal form of knowledge and bliss, and that is the difference between the Lord and the living entity. One can understand this difference by the process of bhakti-yoga. Brahmā was then told by the Lord the gist of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in four original verses. Thus Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is not a creation of the mental speculators. The sound of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is transcendental, and the resonance of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is as good as that of the Vedas. Thus the topic of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the science of both the Lord and the living entity. Regular reading or hearing of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is also performance of bhakti-yoga, and one can attain the highest perfection simply by the association of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

So when they are joined together, the word tapa, or penance, is constructed. This penance is the beauty and wealth of the brāhmaṇas and the renounced order of life. According to Bhāgavata philosophy, every human being is meant simply for this tapa and for no other business, because by penance only can one realize his self; and self-realization, and not sense gratification, is the business of human life. This tapa, or penance, was begun from the very beginning of the creation, and it was first adopted by the supreme spiritual master, Lord Brahmā. By tapasya only can one get the profit of human life, and not by a polished civilization of animal life. The animal does not know anything except sense gratification in the jurisdiction of eat, drink, be merry and enjoy. But the human being is made to undergo tapasya for going back to Godhead, back to home.", + "When Lord Brahmā was perplexed about how to construct the material manifestations in the universe and went down within the water to find out the means and the source of his lotus seat, he heard the word tapa vibrated twice. To take the path of tapa is the second birth of the desiring disciple. The word upāśṛṇot is very significant. It is similar to upanayana, or bringing the disciple nearer to the spiritual master for the path of tapa. So Brahmājī was thus initiated by Lord Kṛṣṇa, and this fact is corroborated by Brahmājī himself in his book the Brahma-saṁhitā. In the Brahma-saṁhitā Lord Brahmā has sung in every verse govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi. Thus Brahmā was initiated by the Kṛṣṇa mantra, by Lord Kṛṣṇa Himself, and thus he became a Vaiṣṇava, or a devotee of the Lord, before he was able to construct the huge universe. It is stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā that Lord Brahmā was initiated into the eighteen-letter Kṛṣṇa mantra, which is generally accepted by all the devotees of Lord Kṛṣṇa. We follow the same principle because we belong to the Brahmā sampradāya, directly in the disciplic chain from Brahmā to Nārada, from Nārada to Vyāsa, from Vyāsa to Madhva Muni, from Madhva Muni to Mādhavendra Purī, from Mādhavendra Purī to Īśvara Purī, from Īśvara Purī to Lord Caitanya and gradually to His Divine Grace Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī, our divine master.", + "One who is thus initiated in the disciplic succession is able to achieve the same result or power of creation. Chanting of this holy mantra is the only shelter of the desireless pure devotee of the Lord.

Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī narrates, in the comments of his Krama-sandarbha annotation of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, quotations from the Gārga Upaniṣad, Vedic evidence. It is said that Yājñavalkya described this transcendental abode of the Lord to Gārgī, and it is said there that the abode of the Lord is situated above the highest planet of the universe, namely Brahmaloka. This abode of the Lord, although described in the revealed scriptures like the Bhagavad-gītā and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, remains only a myth for the less intelligent class of men with a poor fund of knowledge. Herein the word svadṛṣṭavadbhi is very significant. One who has actually realized his self realizes the transcendental form of one's self. Impersonal realization of self and the Supreme is not complete, because it is just an opposite conception of material personalities. The Personality of Godhead and the personalities of devotees of the Lord are all transcendental; they do not have material bodies. The material body is overcast with five kinds of miserable conditions, namely ignorance, material conception, attachment, hatred and absorption. As long as one is overwhelmed with these five kinds of material miseries, there is no question of entering into the Vaikuṇṭhalokas. Impersonal conception of one's self is just the negation of material personality, far from the positive existence of personal form. These personal forms of the transcendental abode will be explained in the following verses.

This universe, containing billions of stars and planets, is one of the billions of such universes clustered together within the compass of mahat-tattva. And all these millions and billions of universes combined together constitute only one fourth of the magnitude of the whole creation of the Lord. There is the spiritual sky also; beyond this sky the spiritual planets are there under the names of Vaikuṇṭha, and all of them constitute three fourths of the entire creation of the Lord. God's creations are always innumerable. Even the leaves of a tree cannot be counted by a man, nor the hairs on his head. However, foolish men are puffed up with the idea of becoming God Himself, though unable to create a hair of their own bodies. Man may discover so many wonderful vehicles of journey, but even if he reaches the moon by his much advertised spacecraft, he cannot remain there. The sane man, therefore, without being puffed up, as if he were the God of the universe abides by the instructions of the Vedic literature, the easiest way to acquire knowledge in transcendence. So let us know through the authority of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam of the nature and constitution of the transcendental world beyond the material sky. In that sky the material qualities, especially the modes of ignorance and passion, are completely absent. The mode of ignorance influences a living entity to the habit of lust and hankering, and this means that in the Vaikuṇṭhalokas the living entities are free from these two things. As confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā, in the brahma-bhūta stage of life one becomes free from hankering and lamentation. Therefore the conclusion is that the inhabitants of the Vaikuṇṭha planets are all brahma-bhūta living entities, as distinguished from the mundane creatures who are all compact in hankering and lamentation. When one is not in the mode's of ignorance and passion, one is supposed to be situated in the mode of goodness in the material world. Goodness in the material world also at times becomes contaminated with touches of the modes of passion and ignorance. In the Vaikuṇṭhaloka, it is unalloyed goodness only.", + "The whole situation there is one of freedom from the illusory manifestation of the external energy. Although illusory energy is also part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, still illusory energy is differentiated from the Lord. The illusory energy is not, however, false, as claimed by the monist philosophers. The rope accepted as a snake may be an illusion to a particular person, but the rope is a fact, and the snake is also a fact. The illusion of water on the hot desert may be illusion for the ignorant animal searching out water in the desert, but the desert and water are actual facts. Therefore the material creation of the Lord may be an illusion to the non-devotee class of men, but to a devotee even the material creation of the Lord is a fact, as the manifestation of His external energy. But this energy of the Lord is not all. The Lord has His internal energy also, which has another creation known to be the Vaikuṇṭhalokas, where there is no ignorance, no passion, no illusion and no past and present. With a poor fund of knowledge one may be unable to understand the existence of such things as the Vaikuṇṭha atmosphere, but that does not nullify its existence. That spacecraft cannot reach these planets does not mean that there are no such planets, for they are described in the revealed scriptures.", + "As quoted by Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, we can know from the Nārada-pañcarātra that the transcendental world or Vaikuṇṭha atmosphere is enriched with transcendental qualities. These transcendental qualities, as revealed through the devotional service of the Lord, are distinct from the mundane qualities of ignorance, passion and goodness. Such qualities are nonattainable by the nondevotee class of men. In the Padma Purāṇa, Uttara-khaṇḍa, it is stated that beyond the one-fourth part of God's creation, there is the three-fourths part manifestation. The marginal line between the material manifestation and the spiritual manifestation is the Virajā River, and beyond the Virajā, which is a transcendental current flowing from the perspiration of the body of the Lord, there is the three-fourths part manifestation of God's creation. This part is eternal, everlasting, without any deterioration, and unlimited, and contains the highest perfectional stage of living conditions. In the Sāṅkhya-kaumudī it is stated that unalloyed goodness or transcendence is just opposite to the material modes. All living entities are eternally associated without any break, and the Lord is the chief and prime entity there. In the Āgama Purāṇas also, the transcendental abode is described as follows: The associated members there are free to go everywhere within the creation of the Lord, and there is no limit to such creation, particularly in the region of the three-fourths magnitude. Since the nature of that region is unlimited, there is no history of such association, nor is there end of it.", + "The conclusion may be drawn that because of the complete absence of the mundane qualities of ignorance and passion, there is no question of creation nor of annihilation. In the material world everything is created and everything is annihilated, and the duration of life between the creation and annihilation is temporary. In the transcendental realm there is no creation and no destruction, and thus the duration of life is eternal unlimitedly. In other words, everything in the transcendental world is everlasting, full of knowledge and bliss without any deterioration. Since there is no deterioration, there is no past, present and future in the estimation of time. It is clearly stated in this verse that the influence of time is conspicuous by its absence. The whole material existence is manifested by actions and reactions of elements which make the influence of time prominent in the matter of past, present and future. There are no such actions and reactions of cause and effects there, so the cycle of birth, growth, existence, transformations, deterioration and annihilation, or the six material changes, are not existent there. It is the unalloyed manifestation of the energy of the Lord without any illusion as experienced here in the material world.

Param nirmatsarāṇām satām, i.e. the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is meant for such persons who are completely free from malice. In the conditioned life the malicious life begins from the top, namely bearing malice against the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Personality of Godhead is an established fact in all the revealed scriptures, and in the Bhagavad-gītā the personal feature of the Supreme Lord is especially mentioned, so much so that in the last portion of the great literature it has been emphatically stressed that one should surrender unto the Personality of Godhead to be saved from the miseries of life. Unfortunately, persons with impious backgrounds do not believe in the Personality of Godhead, and everyone wants to become God himself without any qualification. This malicious nature in the conditioned soul continues even up to the stage when a person wants to be one with the Lord, and thus even the greatest of the empiric philosophers speculating on becoming one with the Supreme Lord cannot become a paramahaṁsa because the malicious mind is there. Therefore the paramahaṁsa stage of life can only be attained by those who are fixed in the practice of bhakti-yoga. This bhakti-yoga begins if a person has the firm conviction that simply discharging devotional service to the Lord in full transcendental love can elevate him to the highest perfectional stage of life. Brahmājī believed in this art of bhakti-yoga; he believed in the words of the Lord to execute tapa, and he discharged the function with great penance and thus achieved the great success of seeing the Vaikuṇṭhalokas and the Lord also by personal experience. No one can reach the abode of the Supreme Lord by any mechanical means of the mind or machine, but one can reach the abode of the Vaikuṇṭhalokas simply by following the process of bhakti-yoga because the Lord can be realized only through the bhakti-yoga process. Lord Brahmājī was actually sitting on his lotus seat, and from there, by executing the process of bhakti-yoga in great seriousness, he could see the Vaikuṇṭhalokas with all variegatedness as well as the Lord in person and His associates.", + "Following in the footsteps of Lord Brahmā, any person, even up to this day, can attain the same perfection by following the path of the paramahaṁsa as recommended herein. Lord Caitanya also approved of this method of self-realization for men in this age. One should first, with all conviction, believe in the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and without making efforts to realize Him by speculative philosophy, one should prefer to hear about Him from the Śrīmad-Bhagavad-gītā and later on from the text of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. He should hear such discourses from a person Bhāgavatam and not from the professional man, nor from the karmī, jñānī or yogī. That is the secret of learning the science. One does not need to be in the renounced order of life; he can remain in his present condition of life, but he must search out the association of a bona fide devotee of the Lord and hear from him the transcendental message of the Lord with faith and conviction. That is the path of the paramahaṁsa recommended herein. Amongst various holy names of the Lord, He is called also ajita, or one who can never be conquered by anyone else. Yet He can be conquered by the paramahaṁsa path, as is practically realized and shown by the great spiritual master Lord Brahmā.

Every living being is eternally related with the Personality of Godhead in one of five different transcendental humors, namely śānta, dāsya, sakhya, vātsalya and mādhurya. We have already discussed these five kinds of humors in relationship with the Personality of Godhead. It is clearly exhibited herein that Lord Brahmā is related to the Personality of Godhead in the transcendental humor of friendship. A pure devotee may be related with the Lord in any one of the transcendental humors, even in the humor of parenthood, but the devotee of the Lord is always a transcendental servitor. No one is equal to or greater than the Lord. That is the version of the Bhagavad-gītā. Brahmājī, although eternally related with the Lord in the transcendental humor of friendship, and although entrusted with the most exalted post of creating different grades of living entities, still is conscious of his position, that he is neither the Supreme Lord nor is supremely powerful. It is possible that some personality, within or without the universe, even though extremely powerful, sometimes shows more power than the Lord Himself. Still the pure devotee knows that this power is a vibhūti delegated by the Lord, and such a delegated powerful living entity is never independent. Śrī Hanumānjī crossed the Indian Ocean by jumping over the sea, and Lord Śrī Rāmacandra engaged Himself in marching over the bridge, but this does not mean that Hanumānjī was more powerful than the Lord. Sometimes the Lord gives extraordinary powers to His devotee, but the devotee knows always that the power belongs to the Personality of Godhead and that the devotee is only an instrument. The pure devotee is never puffed up like the nondevotee class of men who falsely think that they are God. It is astonishing to see how a person who is being kicked by the laws of the Lord's illusory energy in every step can falsely think of becoming one with the Lord. Such thinking is the last snare of the illusory energy offered to the conditioned soul. The first illusion is that he wants to become Lord of the material world by accumulating wealth and power, but when he is frustrated in that attempt he wants to be one with the Lord. So both becoming the most powerful man in the material world or desiring to become one with the Lord are different illusory snares. And because the pure devotees of the Lord are surrendered souls, they are above the illusory snares of māyā. Because he is a pure devotee, Lord Brahmā, even though the first dominating deity in the material world, and therefore able to do many wonderful things, would never, like the nondevotee with a poor fund of knowledge, have the audacity to think of becoming one with the Lord. People with a poor fund of knowledge should take lessons from Brahmā when they are puffed up with the false notion of becoming God.", + "Factually Lord Brahmā does not create the living entities. In the beginning of the creation he is empowered to give different bodily shapes to the living entities according to their work during the last millennium. Brahmājī's duty is just to wake the living entities from their slumber and to engage them in their proper duty. The different grades of living entities are not created by Brahmājī by his capricious whims, but he is entrusted with the task of giving the living entities different grades of body so that they can work accordingly.

These were Brahmā's questions: 1. What are the forms of the Lord both in matter and transcendence? 2. How are the different energies of the Lord working? 3. How does the Lord play with His different energies? 4. How may Brahmā be instructed to discharge the duty entrusted with Him? The prelude to the answers is this verse under discussion, wherein the Lord informs Brahmā that knowledge of Him, the Supreme Absolute Truth, as it is stated in the revealed scriptures, is very subtle and cannot be understood unless one is self-realized by the grace of the Lord. The Lord says that Brahmā may take the answers as He explains them. This means that transcendental knowledge of the absolute Supreme Being can be known if it is made known by the Lord Himself. By the mental speculation of the greatest mundane thinkers, the Absolute Truth cannot be understood. The mental speculators can reach up to the standard of impersonal Brahman realization, but factually, complete knowledge of transcendence is beyond the knowledge of impersonal Brahman. Thus it is called the supreme confidential wisdom. Out of many liberated souls, someone may be qualified to know the Personality of Godhead. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is also said by the Lord Himself that out of many hundreds of thousands of people, one may try for perfection in the human life, and out of many liberated souls one may know Him as He is. Therefore, the knowledge of the Personality of Godhead may be attained by devotional service only. Rahasyam means devotional service. Lord Kṛṣṇa instructed Arjuna in the Bhagavad-gītā because He found Arjuna to be a devotee and friend. Without such qualifications, no one can enter into the mystery of the Bhagavad-gītā. Therefore, one cannot understand the Personality of Godhead unless one becomes a devotee and discharges devotional service. This mystery is love of Godhead. Therein lies the main qualification for knowing the mystery of the Personality of Godhead. And to attain the stage of transcendental love of Godhead regulative principles of devotional service must be followed. The regulative principles are called vidhi-bhakti, or devotional service of the Lord, and they can be practiced by a neophyte with his present senses. Such regulative principles are mainly based on hearing and chanting of the glories of the Lord. And such hearing and chanting of the glories of the Lord can be made possible in the association of devotees only. Lord Caitanya therefore recommended five main principles for attaining perfection in the devotional service of the Lord. The first is association of devotees (hearing); second is chanting the glories of the Lord; third, hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from the pure devotee; fourth, residing in a holy place connected with the Lord; and fifth, worshiping the Deity of the Lord with devotion. Such rules and regulations are parts of devotional service. So, as requested by Lord Brahmā, the Personality of Godhead will explain all about the four questions put forward by Brahmā, and others also which are parts and parcels of the same questions." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..306e0b37 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 2.9.32", + "devanagari": "यावान् अहं यथाभावो यद्रूपगुणकर्मकः\nतथैव तत्त्वविज्ञानम् अस्तु ते मदनुग्रहात्", + "transliteration": "yāvān ahaṁ yathā-bhāvo\nyad-rūpa-guṇa-karmakaḥ\ntathaiva tattva-vijñānam\nastu te mad-anugrahāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yāvān", + "meanings": [ + "as I am in eternal form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "Myself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as much as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental existence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rūpa", + "meanings": [ + "various forms and colors" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmakaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "so and so" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tattva-vijñānam", + "meanings": [ + "factual realization" + ] + }, + { + "word": "astu", + "meanings": [ + "let it be unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat", + "meanings": [ + "Mine" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anugrahāt", + "meanings": [ + "by causeless mercy." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "All of Me, namely My actual eternal form, My transcendental existence, color, qualities and activities—let all be awakened within you by factual realization, out of My causeless mercy.", + "purport": [ + "The secret of success in understanding the intricacies of knowledge of the Absolute Truth, the Personality of Godhead, is the causeless mercy of the Lord.

The Lord is unlimited; no one can know Him completely, but one's advancement in the transcendental loving service of the Lord can make one eligible to know the Lord.

It is said in the revealed scriptures that the Lord has no mundane form; therefore persons with a poor fund of knowledge conclude that He must be formless. They cannot distinguish between the mundane form and the spiritual form. According to them, without a mundane form one must be formless. This conclusion is also mundane because formlessness is the opposite conception of form. Negation of the mundane conception does not establish a transcendental fact. In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said that the Lord has a transcendental form and that He can utilize any one of His senses for any purpose. For example, He can eat with His eyes, and He can see with His leg. In the mundane conception of form, no one can eat with one's eyes nor see with his leg. That is the difference between the mundane body and the spiritual body of sac-cid-ānanda. Spiritual body does not mean formless, but a different type of body which we cannot conceive with our present mundane senses. Formless therefore means devoid of mundane form, or possessing a spiritual body of which the nondevotee can have no conception by the speculative method.", + "The Lord discloses to the devotee His unlimited varieties of transcendental bodies, all identical with one another with different kinds of bodily features.

All these different transcendental bodies of the Lord, without any differential category, are disclosed to the devotees of the Lord by the mercy of the Lord, and thus the impersonalists' false arguments claiming the formlessness of the Supreme Truth do not appeal to a devotee of the Lord, even though such a devotee may not be very advanced in devotional service.", + "The Lord has unlimited numbers of transcendental qualities, and one of them is His affection for His unalloyed devotee.

The Lord lifted the Govardhana Hill when He was only seven years old and protected His pure devotees at Vṛndāvana from the wrath of Indra, who was overflooding the place with rain. Now this lifting of the Govardhana Hill by a seven-year-old boy may be unbelievable for the faithless, but for the devotees it is absolutely believable.

Brahmā is also a creation of the Supreme Lord. The impersonalist puts forth the theory of oneness in the sense that Brahmā, also being the same principle of \"I\" because he is an emanation from the I, the Absolute Truth, is identical with the Lord, the principle of I, and thus there is nothing more than the principle of I, as explained in this verse. Accepting the argument of the impersonalist, it is to be admitted that the Lord is the creator I, and the Brahmā is the created I. Therefore there is a difference between the two \"I's,\" namely the predominator I and the predominated I. Therefore there are still two I's, even accepting the argument of the impersonalist. But we must note carefully that these two I's are accepted in the Vedic literature (Kaṭhopaniṣad) in the sense of quality.

(Kaṭha 2.2.13)", + "The creator \"I\" and the created \"I\" are both accepted in the Vedas as qualitatively one because both of them are nityas and cetanas. But the singular \"I\" is the creator \"I,\" and the created \"I's\" are of plural number because there are many \"I's\" like Brahmā and those generated by Brahmā. It is the simple truth. The father creates or begets a son, and the son also creates many other sons, and all of them may be one as human beings, but at the same time from the father, the son and the grandsons are all different. The son cannot take the place of the father, nor can the grandsons. Simultaneously the father, the son and the grandson are one and different also. As human beings they are one, but as relativities they are different. Therefore the relativities of the creator and the created or the predominator and the predominated have been differentiated in the Vedas by saying that the predominator \"I\" is the feeder of the predominated \"I's,\" and thus there is a vast difference between the two principles of \"I.\"", + "In another feature of this verse, no one can deny the personalities of both the Lord and Brahmā. Therefore in the ultimate issue both the predominator and predominated are persons. This conclusion refutes the conclusion of the impersonalist that in the ultimate issue everything is impersonal. This impersonal feature stressed by the less intelligent impersonalist school is refuted by pointing out that the predominator \"I\" is the Absolute Truth, and He is a person. The predominated \"I,\" Brahmā, is also a person, but he is not the Absolute. For realization of one's self in spiritual psychology it may be convenient to assume oneself as the same principle as the Absolute Truth, but there is always the difference of the predominated and the predominator, as is clearly pointed out here in this verse, which is grossly misused by the impersonalists. Brahmā is factually seeing eye to eye his predominator Lord who, in His transcendental eternal form, exists even after the annihilation of the material creation. The form of the Lord, as seen by Brahmā, existed before the creation of Brahmā, and the material manifestation with all ingredients and agents of material creation are also energetic expansions of the Lord, and after closing the exhibited energy of the Lord, what remains is the same Personality of Godhead. Therefore the form of the Lord exists in all circumstances of the creation, maintenance and annihilation. The Vedic hymns confirm this fact in the statement, \"vāsudevo vā idam agra āsīn na brahmā na ca śaṅkaraḥ eko vai nārāyaṇa āsīn na brahmā na īśāno, etc.\" Before the creation there was none except Vāsudeva. There was neither Brahmā nor Śaṅkara. Only Nārāyaṇa was there and no one else, neither Brahmā nor Īśāna. Śrīpāda Śaṅkarācārya also confirms in his comments on the Bhagavad-gītā that Nārāyaṇa, or the Personality of Godhead, is transcendental to all creation, but the whole creation is the product of avyakta. Therefore the difference between the created and the creator is always there, although both the creator and created are of the same quality.", + "The other feature of the statement is that the supreme truth is Bhagavān, or the Personality of Godhead. The Personality of Godhead and His kingdom have already been explained. The kingdom of Godhead is not void as conceived by the impersonalists. The Vaikuṇṭha planets are full of transcendental variegatedness, including the four-handed residents of those planets, and with great opulence of wealth and prosperity, and there are even airplanes and other amenities required for high-grade personalities. Therefore the Personality of Godhead exists before the creation, and He exists with all transcendental variegatedness in the Vaikuṇṭhalokas. The Vaikuṇṭhalokas, also accepted in the Bhagavad-gītā as being of the sanātana nature, are not annihilated even after the annihilation of the manifested cosmos. Those transcendental planets are of a different nature altogether, and that nature is not subjected to the rules and regulations of material creation, maintenance or annihilation. The existence of the Personality of Godhead implies the existence of the Vaikuṇṭhalokas, as the existence of a king implies the existence of a kingdom.", + "In various places of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and in other revealed scriptures the existence of the Personality of Godhead is mentioned. For example, Mahārāja Parīkṣit asks, \"Sa cāpi yatra puruṣo viśva-sthity-udbhavāpyayaḥ muktvātma-māyāṁ māyeśaḥ śete sarva-guhāśayaḥ?\" [Bhāg. 2.8.10] How does the Personality of Godhead, the cause of creation, maintenance and annihilation, who is always freed from the influence of the illusory energy and is the controller of the same, lie in everyone's heart? Similar also is a question of Vidūra's: \"Tattvānāṁ bhagavaṁs teṣāṁ katidhā pratisaṅkramaḥ tatremaṁ ka upāsīran ka u svid anuśerate.\" Śrīdhara Svāmī explains this in his notes: \"During the annihilation of the creation, who serves the Lord lying on the Śeṣa, etc.\" This means that the transcendental Lord with all His name, fame, quality and paraphernalia exists eternally. The same confirmation is also in the Kāśī-Khaṇḍa in connection with Dhruva-carita. It is said there, \"Na cyavante 'pi yad-bhaktā mahatyāṁ pralayāpadi ato 'cyuto khile loke sa ekaḥ sarvago 'vyayaḥ.\" Even the devotees of the Personality of Godhead are not annihilated during the period of the entire annihilation of the material world, not to speak of the Lord Himself. The Lord is ever-existent in all three stages of material change.", + "The impersonalist adduces no activity in the Supreme, but in this discussion between Brahmā and the Supreme Personality of Godhead the Lord is said to have activities also, as He has His form and quality. The activities of Brahmā and other demigods during the time and maintenance of the creation are to be understood as the activities of the Lord. The king, or the head executive of a state, may not be seen in the government offices, for he may be engaged in royal comforts. Yet it should be understood that everything is being done under his direction, and everything is at his command. The Personality of Godhead is never formless. He may not be visible in His personal form in the material world to the less intelligent class of men, and therefore He may be sometimes called formless. But actually He is always in His eternal form in His Vaikuṇṭha planets as well as in other planets of the universes as different incarnations. The example of the sun is very appropriate in this connection. The sun in the night may not be visible to the eyes of men in the darkness, but the sun is visible wherever it has risen. Because the sun is not visible to the eyes of the inhabitants of a particular part of the earth does not mean that the sun has no form.", + "In the Aitareya Upaniṣad there is the hymn \"ātmaivedam agra āsīt puruṣa-vidhaḥ.\" This mantra indicates the Supreme Personality of Godhead (Kṛṣṇa) even before the appearance of the puruṣa incarnation. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said (Bg. 15.18) that Lord Kṛṣṇa is Puruṣottama because He is the Supreme Puruṣa, transcendental even to the puruṣa akṣara and the puruṣa kṣara. The akṣara puruṣa, or the Mahā-Viṣṇu, throws His glance over prakṛti, or material nature, but the existence of the Puruṣottama was there even before that. The Aitareya Upaniṣad therefore confirms the statement of the Bhagavad-gītā that Lord Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Person (Puruṣottama).", + "In some of the Vedas it is also said that in the beginning only the impersonal Brahman was there. But according to this verse, the impersonal Brahman, which is the glowing effulgence of the body of the Supreme Lord, may be called the immediate cause, but the cause of all causes or the remote cause is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord's impersonal feature is existent in the material world because by material senses or material eyes the Lord cannot be seen or perceived. One has to spiritualize the senses before one can expect to see or perceive the Supreme Lord. But He is always engaged in His personal capacity, and He is eternally visible to the inhabitants of Vaikuṇṭhaloka, eye to eye. Therefore He is materially impersonal, just as the executive head of the state may be impersonal in the government offices, although he is not impersonal in the government house. Similarly, the Lord is not impersonal in His abode, which is always nirasta-kuhakam, as is stated in the very beginning of the Bhāgavatam. Therefore both the impersonal and personal features of the Lord are acceptable, as mentioned in the revealed scriptures. This Personality of Godhead is very emphatically explained in the Bhagavad-gītā in connection with the verse, \"brāhmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham\" (Bg. 14.27). Therefore in all ways the confidential part of spiritual knowledge is realization of the Personality of Godhead, and not His impersonal Brahman feature. One should therefore have his ultimate aim of realization not in the impersonal feature but in the personal feature of the Absolute Truth. The example of sky within the pot and the sky without the pot may be helpful to the student for his realization of the all-pervading quality of the cosmic consciousness of the Absolute Truth. But that does not mean that the individual part and parcel of the Lord becomes the Supreme by a false claim. It means only that the conditioned soul is a victim of the illusory energy in her last snare. To claim to become one with the cosmic consciousness of the Lord is the last trap set by the illusory energy or daivi māyā. Even in the impersonal existence of the Lord, as it is in the material creation, one should be after the personal realization of the Lord, and that is the meaning of \"paścād ahaṁ yad etac ca yo 'vaśiṣyeta so 'smy aham.\"", + "Brahmājī also accepted the same truth when he was instructing Nārada. He said, \"So 'yaṁ te 'bhihitas tāta bhagavān viśva-bhāyanaḥ.\" (Bhāg. 2.7.50). There is no other cause of all causes than the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hari, and therefore this verse aham eva never indicates anything other than the Supreme Lord, and one should therefore follow the path of Brahma-sampradāya, or the path of Brahmājī to Nārada, to Vyāsadeva, etc., and make it a point in life to realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hari, or Lord Kṛṣṇa. This very confidential instruction to the pure devotees of the Lord was also given to Arjuna and to Brahmā in the beginning of the creation. The demigods like Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Maheśvara, Indra, Candra, Varuṇa are undoubtedly different forms of the Lord for execution of different functions; the different elemental ingredients of material creation, as well as the multifarious energies, also may be of the same Personality of Godhead, but the root of all of them is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and one should be attached to the root of everything rather than bewildered by the branches and leaves.

And as such, whenever there is forgetfulness of this prime relation with the Lord, and things are accepted as real without being related with the Lord, that conception is called the product of the illusory energy of the Lord. Because nothing can exist without the Lord, it should be known that the illusory energy is also an energy of the Lord. The right conclusion of dovetailing everything in relationship with the Lord is called yoga-māyā, or the energy of union, and the wrong conception of detaching a thing from its relationship with the Lord is called daivi māyā, or mahā-māyā, of the Lord. Both the māyās also have connection with the Lord because nothing can exist without being related with Him. As such, the wrong conception of detaching relationships from the Lord is not false but illusory.", + "Misconceiving one thing for another thing is called illusion. The example of accepting the rope as a snake is illusion, but it is not false. The rope, as it exists in the front of the illusioned person, is not at all false, but the acceptance is illusory. Therefore the wrong conception of accepting this material manifestation as being divorced from the energy of the Lord is illusion, but it is not false. And this illusory conception is called the reflection of the reality in the darkness of ignorance. Anything that appears as apparently not being \"produced out of My energy\" is called māyā. The conception that the living entity is formless or that the Supreme Lord is formless is also illusion. In the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 2.12) it is said by the Lord in the midst of the battlefield that the warriors who were standing in front of Arjuna, Arjuna himself, and even the Lord were all existing before, they were existing on the battlefield of Kurukṣetra, and they would all continue to be individual personalities in the future also, even after the annihilation of the present body and even after being liberated from the bondage of material existence. In all circumstances, the Lord and the living entities are individual personalities, and the personal features of both the Lord and living beings are never abolished; only the influence of the illusory energy, the reflection of light in the darkness, can, by the mercy of the Lord, be removed. In the material world, the light of the sun is also not independent, nor is that of the moon. The real source of light is the brahmajyoti, which diffuses light from the transcendental body of the Lord, and the same light is reflected in varieties of light: the light of the sun, the light of the moon, the light of the fire, or the light of electricity. So the identity of self as being unconnected with the Supreme Self, the Lord, is also illusion, and the false claim that \"I am the Supreme\" is also the last illusory snare of the same māyā, or the external energy of the Lord.", + "The Vedānta-sūtra in the very beginning affirms that everything is born from the Supreme, and thus, as explained in the previous verse, all individual living entities are born from the energy of the supreme living being, the Personality of Godhead, as Brahmā himself was born from the energy of the Lord, and all other living entities are born from the energy of the Lord through the agency of Brahmā, and none of them has any existence without being dovetailed with the Supreme Lord.", + "The independence of the individual living entity is not real independence, but is just the reflection of the real independence existing in the Supreme Being, the Lord. The false claim of supreme independence by the conditioned souls is illusion, and this conclusion is admitted in this verse.", + "Persons with a poor fund of knowledge become illusioned, and therefore the so-called scientists, physiologists, empiric philosophers, etc., become dazzled by the glaring reflection of the sun, moon, electricity, etc., and deny the existence of the Supreme Lord, putting forward theories and different speculations about creation, maintenance and annihilation of everything material. The medical practitioner may deny the existence of the soul in the physiological bodily construction of an individual person, but he cannot give life to the dead body, even though all the mechanisms of the body exist even after death. The psychologist makes a serious study of the physiological conditions of the brain, as if the construction of the cerebral lump is the machine of the functioning mind, but in the dead body the psychologist cannot bring back the function of the mind. These scientific studies of the cosmic manifestation or that of the bodily construction independent of the Supreme Lord are different reflective intellectual gymnastics only, but at the end they are all illusion and nothing more. All such advancement of science and knowledge in the present context of material civilization is the action of the covering influence of the illusory energy. The illusory energy has two phases of existence, namely the covering influence and the throwing influence. By the throwing influence the living entities are thrown into the darkness of ignorance, and by the covering influence she covers the eyes of men with a poor fund of knowledge about the existence of the Supreme Person who enlightened the supreme individual living being, Brahmā. The identity of Brahmā with the Supreme Lord is never claimed herein, and therefore such a foolish claim by the man with a poor fund of knowledge is another display of the illusory energy of the Lord. The Lord says in the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 16.18-20) that demoniac persons who deny the existence of the Lord are thrown more and more into the darkness of ignorance, and thus such demoniac persons transmigrate life after life without any knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "The sane man, however, is enlightened in the disciplic succession from Brahmājī, who was personally instructed by the Lord, or in the disciplic succession from Arjuna, who was personally instructed by the Lord in the Bhagavad-gītā. He accepts the statement of the Lord, ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate/ iti matvā bhajante māṁ budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ\" (Bg. 10.8). The Lord is the original source of all emanations, and everything that is created, maintained and annihilated exists by the energy of the Lord. The sane man who knows this is actually learned, and therefore he becomes a pure devotee of the Lord, engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord.", + "Although the reflectory energy of the Lord displays various illusions to the eyes of persons with a poor fund of knowledge, the sane person knows clearly that the Lord can act, even from far, far beyond our vision, by His different energies, just as the fire can diffuse heat and light from a distant place. In the medical science of the ancient sages, known as the Āyur-veda, there is definite acceptance of the Lord's supremacy in the following words: \"jagad-yonir anicchasya cid-ānandaika-rūpiṇaḥ puṁso 'sti prakṛtir nityā praticchāyeva bhāsvataḥ acetanāpi caitanya-yogena paramātmanaḥ akarod viśvam akhilam anityam nāṭakā-kṛtim.\" There is one Supreme Person who is the progenitor of this cosmic manifestation, whose energy acts as prakṛti, or the material nature, dazzling like the reflection. By such illusory action of the prakṛti, even the dead matter is caused to move by the cooperation of living energy of the Lord, and the material world appears like a dramatic performance to the ignorant eyes. The ignorant person, therefore, may even be a scientist or physiologist in the drama of prakṛti, while the sane person knows the prakṛti as the illusory energy of the Lord. By such a conclusion, and as is confirmed by the Bhagavad-gītā, it is clear that the living entities are also a display of the superior energy (parā prakṛtiḥ) of the Lord, just as the material world is a display of the inferior energy (aparā prakṛtiḥ) of the Lord. The superior energy of the Lord cannot be as good as the Lord, although there is very little difference between the energy and the possessor of the energy, or the fire and the heat. Fire is possessed of heat, but heat is not fire. This simple thing is not understood by the man with a poor fund of knowledge who falsely claims that the fire and heat are the same. This energy of the fire (namely heat) is explained here as a reflection, and not directly fire. Therefore the living energy represented by the living entities is the reflection of the Lord, and never the Lord Himself. And as the reflection of the Lord, the existence of the living entity is dependent on the Supreme Lord, who is the original light. This material energy may he compared with darkness, as actually it is darkness, and the activities of the living entities in the darkness are reflections of the original light. The Lord should be understood by the context of this verse. Nondependence of both the energies of the Lord is explained as māyā, or illusion. No one can make a solution of the darkness of ignorance simply by the reflection of light. Similarly, no one can come out of the material existence simply by the reflected light of the common man, but one has to receive the light from the original light itself. The reflection of sunlight in the darkness is unable to drive out the darkness, but the sunlight which is outside the; reflection can drive out the darkness completely. In darkness no one can see the things in a room. Therefore a person in the dark is afraid of snakes and scorpions, although there may not be such things. But in the light the things in the room can be clearly seen, and the fear of snakes and scorpions is at once removed. Therefore one has to take shelter of the light of the Lord, as in the Bhagavad-gītā or the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and not the reflective personalities who have no touch with the Lord. No one should hear Bhagavad-gītā or Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from a person who is a nonbeliever in the existence of the Lord. Such a person is already doomed, and any association with such a doomed person makes the associater also doomed.", + "According to the Padma Purāṇa, within the material compass there are innumerable material universes, and all of them are full of darkness. Any living being, beginning from Brahmās (there are innumerable Brahmās also in innumerable universes) to the insignificant ant, are all born in darkness, and they require factual light from the Lord to see Him directly, just as the sun can be seen only by the direct light of the sun. No lamp or man-made torchlight, however powerful it may be, can help one to see the sun. The sun reveals itself. Therefore the action of different energies of the Lord or the Personality of Godhead Himself can be realized by the light manifested by the causeless mercy of the Lord. The impersonalists say that God cannot be seen. God can be seen by the light of God and not by man-made speculations. Here it is specifically mentioned as vidyāt, which is an order by the Lord to Brahmā. This direct order of the Lord is a manifestation of His internal energy, and this particular energy is the means of seeing the Lord eye to eye. Not only Brahmā but anyone who may be graced by the Lord to see such merciful direct internal energy can also realize the Personality of Godhead without any mental speculation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/35.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/35.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1713fa3e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/35.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 35, + "reference": "SB 2.9.35", + "devanagari": "यथा महान्ति भूतानि भूतेषूच्चावचेष्व् अनु\nप्रविष्टान्य् अप्रविष्टानि तथा तेषु न तेष्व् अहम्", + "transliteration": "yathā mahānti bhūtāni\nbhūteṣūccāvaceṣv anu\npraviṣṭāny apraviṣṭāni\ntathā teṣu na teṣv aham", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as it is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahānti", + "meanings": [ + "the universal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtāni", + "meanings": [ + "elements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūteṣu ucca-avaceṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in the minute and gigantic" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anu", + "meanings": [ + "after" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praviṣṭāni", + "meanings": [ + "entered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apraviṣṭāni", + "meanings": [ + "not entered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "so much so" + ] + }, + { + "word": "teṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "teṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "Myself." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Brahmā, please know that the universal elements enter into the cosmos and at the same time do not enter into the cosmos; similarly, I Myself also exist within everything created, and at the same time I am outside of everything.", + "purport": [ + "The great elements of material creation, namely earth, water, fire, air and ether, etc., all enter into the body of all manifested entities, namely the seas, mountains, aquatics, plants, reptiles, birds, beasts, human beings, demigods and everyone materially manifested, and at the same time such elements are differently situated.

The elements were created first, and therefore they entered into the bodily construction later on, but in both circumstances they entered the cosmos as well as not entered. Similarly, the Supreme Lord, by His different energies, namely the internal and external, is within everything in the manifested cosmos, and at the same time He is outside of everything, situated in the kingdom of God (Vaikuṇṭhaloka) as described before.

And this love of Godhead can be attained only by the practice of transcendental loving service of the Lord, and nothing else. The vision of the devotees is not ordinary; it is purified by the process of devotional service. In other words, as the universal elements are both within and without, similarly the Lord's name, form, quality, pastimes, entourage, etc., as they are described in the revealed scriptures or as they are being performed in the Vaikuṇṭhalokas, far, far beyond the material cosmic manifestation, are factually being televised in the heart of the devotee. The man with a poor fund of knowledge cannot understand, although by material science one can see things far away by means of television. Factually, the spiritually developed person is able to have the television of the kingdom of God always reflected within his heart. That is the mystery of knowledge of the Personality of Godhead.", + "The Lord can award anyone and everyone liberation (mukti) from the bondage of material existence, yet He rarely awards the privilege of love of Godhead, as is confirmed by Nārada, \"mukti dadhāti karhicit sma na bhakti-yogam.\" This transcendental devotional service of the Lord is so wonderful that the occupation keeps the deserving devotee always rapt in psychological activities, without any deviation from the absolute touch. Thus love of Godhead, developed in the heart of the devotee, is a great mystery. It was previously told by Brahmājī to Nārada that the desires of Brahmājī are never unfulfilled because he is always absorbed in the transcendental loving service of the Lord; nor has he any desire in his heart save and except the transcendental service of the Lord. That is the beauty and mystery of the process of bhakti-yoga. As the Lord's desire is infallible, as He is acyuta, similarly the desires of the devotees in the transcendental service of the Lord are also acyuta, infallible. It is very difficult, however, for the layman to understand without knowledge of the mystery of devotional service, as it is very difficult to know the potency of touchstone. As touchstone is rarely found, a pure devotee of the Lord is also rarely to be seen, even amongst the millions of liberated souls (katsv api mahāmune). Out of all kinds of perfections attained by the process of knowledge, yoga perfection in devotional service is the highest of all and the most mysterious also, even more mysterious than the eight kinds of mystic perfection attained by the process of yogic performances.

One who is developed in consciousness certainly makes enquiries into the mystery of the self, of the cosmic situation and of the problems of life, in all spheres and fields, namely social, political, economic, cultural, religious, moral, etc., and in their different branches. But here is explained the goal of all such inquiries.", + "The Vedānta-sūtra philosophy begins with this inquiry of life and the Bhāgavatam answers such inquiries up to this point, or the mystery of all inquiries. Lord Brahmā wanted to be perfectly educated by the Personality of Godhead, and here is the answer by the Lord finished in four nutshell verses, namely beginning from aham eva to this verse, etāvad eva. This is the end of all self-realization processes. Men do not know that the ultimate goal of life is Viṣṇu or the Supreme Personality of Godhead due to being bewildered by the glaring reflection in the darkness, and as such everyone is entering into the darkest region of material existence, driven by the uncontrolled senses. The whole material existence has sprung up by sense gratification, desires based principally on the sex desire, and the result is that in spite of all advancement of knowledge, the final goal of all activities of the living entities is sense gratification. But here is the real goal of life, and everyone should know it by inquiries put before a bona fide spiritual master expert in the science of bhakti-yoga, or from a living personality of Bhāgavatam life. Everyone is engaged in various kinds of scriptural inquiries, but the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives answers to all of the various students of self-realization: this ultimate objective of life is not to be searched out without any great labor or perseverance. One who is imbued with such sincere inquiries must ask the bona fide spiritual master in the disciplic succession from Brahmājī, and that is the direction given here. Because the mystery was disclosed before Brahmājī by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the mystery of all such inquiries regarding self-realization must be put before such a spiritual master who is directly the representative of the Lord, acknowledged in that disciplic succession. Such a bona fide spiritual master is able to clear up the whole thing by evidences from the revealed scriptures, both directly and indirectly. Although everyone is free to consult the revealed scriptures in this connection, still one requires the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master, and that is the direction in this verse. The bona fide spiritual master is the most confidential representative of the Lord, and one must receive direction from the spiritual master in the same spirit as Brahmājī received them from the Personality of Godhead, Lord Kṛṣṇa. The bona fide spiritual master in that bona fide chain of disciplic succession never claims to be the Lord Himself, although such a spiritual master is greater than the Lord in the sense that he can deliver the Lord by his personally realized experience.

For example, in the Bhagavad-gītā the whole direction is targetted toward the Personality of Godhead Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, but for want of a bona fide spiritual master in the line of Brahmājī or the direct hearer, Arjuna, there are different distortions of the revealed knowledge by many unauthorized persons who just want to satisfy their own whims.

Therefore the complete social construction is the body of the Lord, and each and every part of the body, namely the brāhmaṇas, the kṣatriyas, the vaiśyas and the śūdras, is meant to serve the Lord's whole body conjointly; otherwise it becomes unfit to be coordinated with the supreme consciousness of oneness. Universal consciousness is factually achieved by coordinated service of all concerned to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and that alone can insure total perfection.", + "Therefore even the great scientists, the great philosophers, the great mental speculators, the great politicians, the great industrialists and the great social reformers, etc., cannot give any relief to the restless society of the material world because they do not know the secret of success as mentioned in this verse of the Bhāgavatam, namely that one must know the mystery of bhakti-yoga.

Such faithless nonbelievers may be highly educated in the material sense of the term, but factually they are the greatest fools of the world because by the influence of the external material nature all their so-called acquisition of knowledge has been made null and void. Therefore all advancement of knowledge in the present context of things is being misused in terms of the cats and dogs fighting with one another for sense gratification, and all acquisition of knowledge in science, philosophy, fine arts, nationality, economic development, religiousness and great activities are being spoiled by being used as dresses for dead men. There is no utility in the dresses used for covering a coffin of the dead body save getting a false applause from the ignorant public. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam therefore says again and again that without attainment of the status of bhakti-yoga, all activities of the human society are to be considered as absolute failures only. It is said:", + "parābhavas tāvad abodha-jāto

If the lowest can be so elevated, then what to speak of the highest who are well versed in the Vedic knowledge? The conclusion is that devotional service of the Lord is open for all, regardless of who they are. That is the confirmation of its application for all kinds of performers of the service.", + "Therefore devotional service of the Lord with perfect knowledge through the training of a bona fide spiritual master is advised for everyone, even if they happen not to be human beings.

(Bg. 9.30, 32)", + "Even if a person is fully addicted to all sorts of sinful acts, if he happens to be engaged in the loving transcendental service of the Lord under proper guidance, he is to be considered the most perfect holy man without a doubt. And thus any person, whatsoever and whosoever he or she may be—even the fallen woman, the less intelligent laborer class or the dull mercantile type of men, or even men lower than all these—can attain the highest perfection of life by going back home, back to Godhead, provided he or she takes shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord in all earnestness. This sincere earnestness is the only qualification that can lead one to the highest perfectional stage of life, and unless and until such real earnestness is aroused, there is a difference between cleanliness or uncleanliness, learning or nonlearning in the material estimation. The fire is always fire, and thus if someone touches the fire, knowingly or unknowingly, the fire will act in its own way without any discrimination. The principle is: harir harati pāpāni duṣṭa-cittair api smṛtaḥ. The all-powerful Lord can purify the devotee of all sinful reactions, just as the sun can sterilize all sorts of infections by its powerful rays. \"Attraction of material enjoyment cannot act upon a pure devotee of the Lord.\" There are hundreds and thousands of aphorisms in the revealed scriptures. Ātmārāmaś ca munayaḥ. Even the self-realized souls are also attracted by the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Kecit kevalayā bhaktyā vāsudeva-parāyaṇā: \"Simply by hearing and chanting, one becomes a great devotee of Lord Vāsudeva.\" Na calati bhagavat-padāravindāl lavanimiṣārdham api sa vaiṣṇavāgryaḥ: \"A person who does not move from the lotus feet of the Lord even for a moment or a second is to be considered the greatest of all Vaiṣṇavas.\" Bhagavat-pārṣadatāṁ prāpte mat-sevayā pratītaṁ te: \"The pure devotees are convinced of attaining the association of the Personality of Godhead, and thus they are always engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord.\" Therefore in all continents, in all planets, in all universes, there is currency of devotional service of the Lord, or bhakti-yoga, and that is the statement of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and allied scriptures. Everywhere means in every part of the creation of the Lord. The Lord can be served by all the senses, or even simply by the mind. The South Indian brāhmaṇa who served the Lord simply on the strength of his mind also factually realized the Lord. Success is guaranteed for a devotee who fully engages any one of his senses in the mode of devotional service. The Lord can be served by any ingredient, even the most common commodities—a flower, a leaf, a fruit or a little water, which are available in any part of the universe and without any cost—and thus the Lord is served universally by the universal entities. He can be served simply by hearing, He can be served simply by chanting or reading about His activities, He can be served simply by adoring Him and accepting Him.", + "In the Bhagavad-gītā it is stated that one can serve the Lord by offering the result of one's own work; it does not matter what one does. Generally men may say that whatever they are doing is inspired by God, but that is not all. One should actually work on behalf of God as a servant of God. The Lord says in the Bhagavad-gītā: (Bg. 9.27)", + "yat karoṣi yad aśnāsi yaj juhoṣi dadāsi yat
yat tapasyasi kaunteya tat kuruṣva mad-arpaṇam", + "Do whatever you like or whatever may be easier for you to do, eat whatever you may eat, sacrifice whatever you can sacrifice, give whatever you may give in charity, and do whatever you may undertake in penance, but everything must be done for Him only. If you do business or if you accept some employment, do so on behalf of the Lord. Whatever you may eat, you may offer the same to the Lord and be assured that He will return the food after eating it Himself. He is the complete whole, and therefore whatever He may eat as offered by the devotee is accepted because of the devotee's love, but again it is returned as prasādam for the devotee so that he can be happy by eating. In other words, be a servant of God and live peacefully in that consciousness, ultimately returning home, back to Godhead.", + "It is said, yasya smṛtyā ca nāmoktyā tapo-yajña-kriyādiṣu nūnaṁ sampūrṇatāmeti sadyo vandetam acyutam. I offer my obeisances unto Him, the infallible, because simply by either remembering Him or vibrating His holy name one can attain the perfection of all penances, sacrifices or fruitive activities, and this process can be universally followed. It is enjoined, akāmaḥ sarva-kāmo vā mokṣa-kāma udāradhiḥ tibreṇa bhakti-yogena yajeta puruṣaṁ param: \"A person, though he may be full of desires or may have no desires, may follow this path of infallible bhakti-yoga for complete perfection.\" One need not be anxious to propitiate each and every demigod and goddess because the root of all of them is the Personality of Godhead. As by pouring water on the root of the tree all the branches and leaves are served and enlivened, so by rendering service unto the Supreme Lord every god and goddess becomes automatically served without extraneous effort. The Lord is all-pervading, and therefore service unto Him is also all-pervading. This fact is corroborated in the Skanda Purāṇa as follows: \"arcite deva-deveśe śaṅkha-cakra-gadādhare arcitaḥ sarva-devaḥ syur yataḥ sarva-gato hariḥ.\" When the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, who carries in His hands a conchshell, wheel, club, and lotus flower, is worshiped, certainly all other demigods are worshiped automatically because Hari the Personality of Godhead is all-pervading. Therefore, in all cases, namely nominative, objective, causative, dative, ablative, possessive and supportive, everyone is benefitted by such transcendental loving service of the Lord. The man who worships the Lord, the Lord Himself who is worshiped, the cause for which the Lord is worshiped, the source of supply, the place where such worship is done, etc.—everything is benefitted by such an action.", + "Even during the annihilation of the material world, the process of bhakti-yoga can be applied. Kālena naṣṭā pralaye vāṇīyam: the Lord is worshiped in devastation because He protects the Vedas from being annihilated. He is worshiped in every millennium or yuga, as it is said,", + "kṛte yad dhyāyato viṣṇuṁ tretāyāṁ yajato makhaiḥ
dvāpare paricaryāyāṁ kalau taddhari-kīrtanāt
[Bhāg. 12.3.52]", + "In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa it is written: \"sa hānis tan-mahacchidram sa mohaḥ sa ca vibhramaḥ yan-muhūrtaṁ kṣaṇaṁ vāpi vāsudevaṁ na cintayet.\" If even for a moment remembrance of Vāsudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is missed, that is the greatest loss, that is the greatest illusion, and that is the greatest anomaly. The Lord can be worshiped in all stages of life. For instance, even in the womb of their mothers Mahārāja Prahlāda and Mahārāja Parīkṣit worshiped the Lord; even in his very childhood, at the age of only five years, Dhruva Mahārāja worshiped the Lord; even in full youth, Mahārāja Ambarīṣa worshiped the Lord; and even at the last stage of his frustration and old age Mahārāja Dhṛtarāṣṭra worshiped the Lord. Ajāmila worshiped the Lord even at the point of death, and the Lord was worshiped by Citraketu even in heaven and in hell. In the Narasiṁha Purāṇa it is said that as the hellish inhabitants began to chant the holy name of the Lord they began to be elevated from hell towards heaven. Durvāsā Muni has also supported this view: \"mucyeta yan-nāmny udite nārako 'pi.\" Simply by chanting the holy name of the Lord the inhabitants of hell became released from their hellish persecution. So the conclusion of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, as given by Śukadeva Gosvāmī to Mahārāja Parīkṣit, is: etad nirvidyā mānānām icchatam akuto-bhayam yogīnānam api nirṇītam harer nāmānukīrtanam: \"O King, it is finally decided that everyone, namely those in the renounced order of life, the mystics, and the enjoyers of fruitive work, should chant the holy name of the Lord fearlessly to achieve the desired success in their pursuits.\"", + "Similarly, it is indicated indirectly in various places of revealed scriptures:", + "1. Even though one is well versed in all the Vedas and scriptures, if one is not a devotee of the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, he is considered to be the lowest of mankind.", + "2. In the Garuḍa Purāṇa, Bṛhad-Nāradīya Purāṇa and Padma Purāṇa, the same is repeated: What is the use of Vedic knowledge and penances for one who is devoid of devotional service of the Lord?", + "3. What is the comparison of thousands of Prajāpatis with one devotee of the Lord?", + "4. Śukadeva Gosvāmī said (Bhag. 2.4.17) that neither the ascetic, nor one who is greatly munificent, nor one who is famous, nor the great philosopher, nor the great occultist, nor anyone else can achieve the desired result without being engaged in the service of the Lord.", + "5. Even if a place is more glorious than heaven, if there is no glorification of the Lord of Vaikuṇṭha nor His pure devotee, it should be at once quitted.", + "6. The pure devotee refuses to accept all the five different types of liberation in order to be engaged in the service of the Lord.", + "The final conclusion, therefore, is that the glories of the Lord must be always and everywhere proclaimed, one should hear about His glories, one should chant about His glories, and one should always remember His glories because that is the highest perfectional stage of life. As far as fruitive work is concerned, it is limited to an enjoyable body; as far as yoga is concerned, it is limited to the acquirement of mystic power; as far as empiric philosophy is concerned, it is limited to the attainment of transcendental knowledge; and as far as transcendental knowledge is concerned, it is limited to attainment of salvation. Even if they are adopted, there is every chance of discrepencies in discharging the particular type of functions. But adoptation of the transcendental devotional service of the Lord has no limit, nor is there fear of falling down. The process reaches automatically to the final stage by the grace of the Lord. In the preliminary stage of devotional service there is an apparent requisition of knowledge, but in the higher stage there is no necessity of such knowledge. The best and guaranteed path of progress is therefore engagement in bhakti-yoga, pure devotional service.", + "The cream of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in the foregoing four ślokas is sometimes squeezed out by the impersonalist for different interpretations in their favor, but it should be carefully noted that the four ślokas were first described by the Personality of Godhead Himself, and thus the impersonalist has no scope to enter into them because he has no conception of the Personality of Godhead. Therefore, the impersonalist may squeeze out any interpretations from them, but such interpretations will never be accepted by those who are taught in the disciplic succession from Brahmā, as will be cleared up in the following verses. Besides that, the Śruti confirms that the Supreme Truth Absolute Personality of Godhead never reveals Himself to anyone who is falsely proud of his academic knowledge. The Śruti mantra clearly says:", + "nāyam ātmā pravacanena labhyo na medhayā na bahudhā śrutena

There are many grammarians and nondevotee material wranglers who have tried to present false interpretations of these four verses of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, but the Lord Himself advised Brahmājī not to be deviated from the fixed conclusion the Lord taught him. The Lord was the teacher of the nucleus four verses of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and Brahmā was the receiver of the knowledge. Misinterpretation of the word aham by the word jugglery of the impersonalist should not disturb the mind of the strict followers of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the text of the Personality of Godhead and His unalloyed devotees, who are also known as the Bhāgavatas, and any outsider should have no access to this confidential literature of devotional service. But unfortunately the impersonalist, who has no relation with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, sometime tries to interpret Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam by his poor fund of knowledge in grammar and dry speculation. Therefore, the Lord warns Brahmā (and, through Brahmā, all future devotees of the Lord in the disciplic succession of Brahmā) that one should never be misled by the conclusion of the so-called grammarians or by other men with a poor fund of knowledge, but must always fix the mind properly, via the paramparā system. No one should try to give a new interpretation by dint of mundane knowledge. And the first thing, therefore, in pursuance of the system of knowledge received by Brahmā is to approach a bona fide guru who is the representative of the Lord following the paramparā system. No one should try to squeeze out his own meaning by imperfect mundane knowledge. The guru, or the bona fide spiritual master, is competent to teach the disciple in the right path with reference to the context of all authentic Vedic literature. He does not attempt to juggle words to bewilder the student. The bona fide spiritual master, by his personal activities, teaches the disciple the principles of devotional service. Without personal service, like the impersonalist and dry speculators, one would go on speculating life after life and would be unable to reach the final conclusion. By following the instructions of the bona fide spiritual master in conjunction with the principles of revealed scriptures, the student will rise to the plane of complete knowledge, which will be exhibited by development of detachment from the world of sense gratification. The mundane wranglers are surprised as to how one can detach himself from the world of sense gratification, and thus any attempt to be fixed in God realization appears to them to be mysticism. This detachment from the sensory world is called the brahma-bhūta stage of realization, the preliminary stage of transcendental devotional life (parā bhaktiḥ). The brahma-bhūta stage of life is also known as the ātmārāma stage, in which one is fully self-satisfied and does not hanker for the world of sense enjoyment. This stage of full satisfaction is the proper situation for understanding the transcendental knowledge of the Personality of Godhead. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam affirms this:", + "evaṁ prasanna-manaso bhagavat-bhakti-yogataḥ
bhagavat-tattva-vijñānaṁ mukta-saṅgasya jayate
(Bhāg. 1.2.20)", + "Thus in the completely satisfied stage of life, exhibited by full detachment from the world of sense enjoyment as the result of performing devotional service, one can understand the science of God in the liberated stage.", + "In this stage of full satisfaction and detachment from the sensory world, one can know the mystery of the science of God with all its confidential intricacies, and not by grammar or academic speculation. And because Brahmā qualified himself for such reception, the Lord was pleased to disclose the purpose of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. This direct instruction by the Lord to any devotee who is detached from the world of sense gratification is possible, as is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā:", + "teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ bhajatāṁ prīti-pūrvakam
dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ taṁ yena mām upayanti te.
(Bg. 10.10)", + "Unto the devotees who are constantly engaged in the transcendental loving service (prīti-pūrvakam) of the Lord, the Lord out of His causeless mercy upon the devotee gives direct instructions so that the devotee may make accurate progress on the path of returning home, back to Godhead. One should not, therefore, try to understand these four verses of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam by mental speculation. Rather, by direct perception of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one is able to know all about His abode, Vaikuṇṭha, as was seen and experienced by Brahmājī. Such Vaikuṇṭha realization is possible by any devotee of the Lord situated in the transcendental position as a result of devotional service.", + "In the Gopāla-tāpanī Upaniṣad (Śruti) it is said that the Lord appeared before Brahmājī as \"gopa-veśome purastād āvirbhūvaḥ\": the Lord appeared before Brahmā as a cowboy, that is, as the original Personality of Godhead, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, Govinda, who is later described by Brahmājī in his Brahma-saṁhitā:", + "cintāmaṇi-prakara-sadmasu kalpavṛkṣa-

(Bs. 5.29)", + "Brahmājī desires to worship the original Personality of Godhead, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who resides in the topmost Vaikuṇṭha planet, known as Goloka Vṛndāvana, and where He is in the habit of keeping surabhi cows as a cowboy, and where He is served by hundreds and thousands of goddesses of fortune (the gopīs) with love and respect.", + "Therefore Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original form of the Supreme Lord (kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam). This is also clear in this instruction. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is Lord Kṛṣṇa, and not directly Nārāyaṇa or puruṣa-avatāras because such manifestations are subsequent. Therefore Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam means consciousness of the Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the sound representation of the Lord as much as the Bhagavad-gītā is. Thus the conclusion is that Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the science of the Lord in which the Lord and His abode are perfectly realized." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/38.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/38.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..942ab7d6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/09/verses/38.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 38, + "reference": "SB 2.9.38", + "devanagari": "श्री शुक उवाच\nसम्प्रदिश्यैवम् अजनो जनानां परमेष्ठिनम्\nपश्यतस्तस्य तद्रूपम् आत्मनो न्यरुणद्धरिः", + "transliteration": "śrī śuka uvāca\nsampradiśyaivam ajano\njanānāṁ parameṣṭhinam\npaśyatas tasya tad-rūpam\nātmano nyaruṇaddhariḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sampradiśya", + "meanings": [ + "thus fully instructing Brahmājī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parameṣṭhinam", + "meanings": [ + "unto the supreme leader, Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśyataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "while he was seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "His" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-rūpam", + "meanings": [ + "that transcendental form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Absolute" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nyaruṇat", + "meanings": [ + "disappeared" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hariḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord, the Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hari, after being seen in His transcendental form, instructing Brahmājī, the leader of the living entities, disappeared,\" said Śukadeva Gosvāmī to Mahārāja Parīkṣit.", + "purport": [ + "In this verse it is clearly mentioned that the Lord is ajanaḥ, or the Supreme Person, and He was showing His transcendental form (ātmano rūpam) to Brahmājī while He was instructing him in the summarization of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in four verses.

It is created to give a chance to the conditioned soul to act to return home, back to Godhead, and servants like Brahmājī, Nāradajī, Vyāsajī and their company become busy with the same purpose of the Lord: to reclaim the conditioned souls from the field of sense gratification and return them to the normal stage of engaging the senses in service of the Lord. Instead of doing so, i.e. converting the actions of the senses, the impersonalists began to make the conditioned souls sense-less, and the Lord also sense-less. That is improper treatment for the conditioned souls. The diseased condition of the senses may be treated by curing the defect, but not uprooting it altogether. When there is some disease in the eyes, the eyes may be cured to see properly. Plucking out the eyes is no treatment.

The ten characteristics, as will be explained in the next chapter, require so many verses just to explain them properly. Brahmājī also advised Nārada previously that he should expand the idea that he had heard from Brahmājī. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu instructed this to Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī in a nutshell, but the disciple Rūpa Gosvāmī expanded this very elaborately, and the same subject was further expanded by Jīva Gosvāmī and even further by Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur.

But because the devotees are bhakti-yogīs, they do not undertake the trouble to meditate upon the impersonal Brahman, but, as is indicated here, on Brahma Paramam or the Supreme Brahman. Brahman realization begins from the impersonal effulgence, but by further progress of such meditation, manifestation of the Supreme Soul, Paramātmā realization, takes place. And progressing further, realization of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is fixed. Śrī Nārada Muni, as the spiritual master of Vyāsadeva, knew very well the position of Vyāsadeva, and thus he certified the qualities of Śrīla Vyāsadeva as fixed in the Absolute Truth with great vow, etc. He advised meditation upon the transcendental activities of the Lord. Impersonal Brahman has no activities, but the Personality of Godhead has many activities, and all such activities are transcendental without any tinge of material quality. If the activities of the Supreme Brahman would have been material activities, then Nārada would not have advised Vyāsadeva to meditate upon them.

The third Puruṣa avatāra is the Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, who lives as the Supersoul of everything in the universe and maintains the creation generated by Brahmā. Śiva is one of the many sons of Brahmā, and he annihilates the creation. Therefore the original creator of the universe is Viṣṇu, and He is also maintainer of the created beings by His causeless mercy. As such, it is the duty of all conditioned souls to acknowledge the victory of the Lord and thus become pure devotees and live peacefully in this world where miseries and dangers of life are always in existence. The conditioned souls who take this material creation as the place for satisfaction of the senses, and thus are illusioned by the external energy of Viṣṇu, remain again to be subjected to laws of material nature, creation and destruction.", + "In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said that beginning from the topmost planet of this universe down to the lowest planet, the Pātālaloka, all are destructible, and the conditioned souls may travel in space either by good or bad work or by the modern spacecraft, but they are sure to die everywhere, although the duration of life in different planets is different. The only means to attain eternal life is to go back home, back to Godhead, where there is no more rebirth as in the material planets. The conditioned souls, being unaware of this very simple fact by forgetting the relationship with the Lord of Vaikuṇṭha, try to plan out a permanent life in this material world, being illusioned by the external energy, and thus become engaged in various types of economic and religious development of life, forgetting that they are meant for going back home, back to Godhead. This forgetfulness is so strong due to the influence of māyā that the conditioned souls do not at all want to go back to Godhead. By sense enjoyment they become victims of birth and death repeatedly and thus spoil human lives which are chances for going back to Viṣṇu. The directive scriptures made by the Manus at different ages and millenniums are called sad-dharma, good guidance for the human beings, who should take up the advantage of all the revealed scriptures on their own interest to make life's successful termination. The creation is not false, but it is a temporary manifestation just to give a chance for the conditioned souls to go back to Godhead. And the desire to go back to Godhead and functions performed in that direction are the right path of work. When such a regulative path is accepted, the Lord gives all protection to His devotees by His causeless mercy, while the nondevotees risk their own activities to bind themselves up in the chain of fruitive reactions. The word sad-dharma is significant in this connection. Sad-dharma, or duty performed for going back to Godhead and thus becoming His unalloyed devotee, is the only pious activity; all others may be pretendingly pious, but actually they are not so. It is for this reason only that the Lord advises in the Bhagavad-gītā to give up all so-called religious activities and be completely engaged in the devotional service of the Lord in order to become free from all anxieties due to the dangerous life of material existence. To work situated in the sad-dharma is the right direction of life. One's aim of life should be to go back home, back to Godhead, and not be subjected to repeated births and deaths in the material world by getting good or bad bodies for temporary existence.

Most of them are ever liberated, or nitya-muktas, while some of them are ever conditioned. The ever conditioned souls are apt to develop a mentality of lording over the material nature, and therefore the material cosmic creation is manifested to give the ever conditioned souls two kinds of facilities. One facility is that the conditioned soul can act according to his tendency to lord it over the cosmic manifestation, and the other facility is to give a chance to the conditioned soul to come back to Godhead. So after the winding up of the cosmic manifestation, most of the conditioned souls merge into the existence of the Mahā-Viṣṇu Personality of Godhead, lying in His mystic slumber, to be recreated again when there will be the next creation. But some of the conditioned souls, who follow the transcendental sound in the form of Vedic literatures and are thus able to go back to Godhead, attain spiritual and original bodies after quitting the material conditional gross and subtle bodies. The material conditional bodies develop out of the living entities' forgetfulness of the relationship with Godhead, and during the course of the cosmic manifestation, the conditioned souls are given a chance to revive their original status of life by the help of revealed scriptures, so mercifully compiled by the Lord in His different incarnations. Reading or hearing of such transcendental literatures helps one to become liberated even in the conditional state of material existence. The whole Vedic literatures aim at devotional service of the Personality of Godhead, and as soon as one is fixed to this point, he at once becomes liberated from the conditional life. The material gross and subtle forms are simply due to ignorance of the conditioned soul, and as soon as he is fixed in the devotional service of the Lord, he becomes eligible to be freed from the conditioned state. This devotional service is transcendental attraction for the Supreme on account of the latter's being the source of all pleasing humors. Everyone is after some pleasure of humor for enjoyment, but does not know the supreme source of all attraction (raso vai sa rasaṁ hy evāyaṁ labdhvānandī bhavati). The Vedic hymns inform everyone about the supreme source of all pleasure; the unlimited fountainhead of all pleasure is the Personality of Godhead, and one who is fortunate enough to get this information through the transcendental literatures like Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam becomes permanently liberated to occupy one's proper place in the kingdom of God." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cba40cc8 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 2.10.7", + "devanagari": "आभासश्च निरोधश्च यतो ऽस्त्य् अध्यवसीयते\nस आश्रयः परं ब्रह्म परमात्मेति शब्द्यते", + "transliteration": "ābhāsaś ca nirodhaś ca\nyato 'sty adhyavasīyate\nsa āśrayaḥ paraṁ brahma\nparamātmeti śabdyate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ābhāsaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the cosmic manifestation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirodhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and its winding up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the source" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asti", + "meanings": [ + "is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhyavasīyate", + "meanings": [ + "become manifested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "He" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśrayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "reservoir" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "Being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paramātmā", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śabdyate", + "meanings": [ + "called." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The supreme one who is celebrated as the Supreme Being or the Supreme Soul is the supreme source of the cosmic manifestation as well as its reservoir and winding up.

The word iti used here in the verse completes the synonyms and thus indicates Bhagavān. This will be further explained in the later verses, but this Bhagavān means ultimately Lord Kṛṣṇa because the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam has already accepted the Supreme Personality of Godhead as Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam. The original source of all energies or the summum bonum is the Absolute Truth which is called Param Brahma, etc., and Bhagavān is the last word of the Absolute Truth. But even with the synonyms of Bhagavān, such as Nārāyaṇa, Viṣṇu, Puruṣa, etc., the last word is Kṛṣṇa, as confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā: ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ samaṁ pravartate, etc. Besides that, the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the representation of Lord Kṛṣṇa as sound incarnation of the Lord. Kṛṣṇe sva-dhāmopagate dharma-jñānādibhiḥ saha/ kalau naṣṭa-dṛśām eṣaḥ purāṇārko 'dhunoditaḥ. Thus by general conclusion Lord Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate source of all energies, and the word Kṛṣṇa means that. And to explain Kṛṣṇa or the science of Kṛṣṇa, the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam has been prepared. In the First Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam this truth is indicated in the questions and answers by Sūta Gosvāmī and great sages like Śaunaka, etc., and in the First and Second Chapters of the canto this is explained. In the Third Chapter this subject is more explicit, and in the Fourth Chapter even more explicit. In the Second Canto the Absolute Truth as the Personality of Godhead is further emphasized, and the indication is the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa. The summary of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in four verses, as we have already discussed, is succinct. This Supreme Personality of Godhead in the ultimate issue is confirmed by Brahmā in his Brahma-saṁhitā as īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ. So it is concluded in the Third Canto of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. The complete subject matter is elaborately explained in the Tenth and Eleventh Cantos of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. In the matter of changes of the Manus of manvantaras, such as the Svāyambhuva manvantara and Cākṣuṣa manvantara, as they are discussed in the Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Cantos of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Lord Kṛṣṇa is indicated. In the Eighth Canto Vaivasvata manvantara explains the same subject indirectly, and in the Ninth Canto the same purport is there. In the Twelfth Canto the same is further explained, specifically regarding the different incarnations of the Lord. Thus it is concluded by studying the complete Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate summum bonum, or the ultimate source of all energy.

For example, in the food-controlling department the controller of food is a person made of the same ingredients as the person who is controlled. Similarly, each and every individual in the material world is controlled by the higher demigods. For example, we have our senses, but the senses are controlled by superior controlling deities. We cannot see without light, and the supreme controller of light is the sun. The sun-god is in the sun planet, and we, the individual human beings or any other being on this earth, are all controlled by the sun-god as far as our eyes are concerned. Similarly, all the senses that we have are controlled by the superior demigods, who are also as much living entities as we are, but one is empowered while the other is controlled. The controlled living entity is called the adhyātmic person, and the controller is called the adhidaivic person. All these positions in the material world are due to different fruitive activities. Any individual living being can become the sun-god or even Brahmā or any other god in the upper planetary system by a higher grade of pious work, and similarly one becomes controlled by the higher demigods by lower grades of fruitive activities. So every individual living entity is subject to the supreme control of the Paramātmā, who puts everyone in different positions of the controller and the controlled.", + "That which distinguishes the controller and controlled, i.e. the material body, is called the adhibhautic puruṣa. The body is sometimes called puruṣa, as is confirmed in the Vedas in the following hymn: \"sa vā eṣa puruṣo 'nna-rasamaya.\" This body is called anna-rasa embodiment. This body depends on food. The living entity which is embodied does not eat anything, however, because the owner is spirit in essence. The material body requires replacement of matters for the wearing and tearing of the mechanical body. Therefore the distinction between the individual living entity and controlling planetary deities is in the anna-rasamaya body. The sun may have a gigantic body, and the man may have a smaller body, but all these visible bodies are made of matter; nonetheless, the sun-god and the individual person related as the controller and the controlled are the same spiritual parts and parcels of the Supreme Being, and it is the Supreme Being who places different parts and parcels in different positions.

But without the medium of perception, no one can know or understand who is the controlled and who is the controller. For example, the sun controls the power of our vision, and we can see the sun because the sun has its body, and the sunlight is useful only because we have eyes. Without our having eyes, the sunlight is useless, and without sunlight the eyes are useless. Thus they are interdependent, and neither of them is independent. Therefore the natural question arises concerning who made them interdependent, and one who has made such a relationship of interdependence must be ultimately completely independent. As it is stated in the beginning of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the ultimate source of all interdependent objectives is the complete independent subject. This ultimate source of all interdependence is the Supreme Truth or Paramātmā, the Supersoul, who is not dependent on anything else. He is svāśrayāśrayaḥ. He is only dependent on His self, and thus He is the supreme shelter of everything. Although Paramātmā or Brahman are subordinate to Bhagavān, because Bhagavān is Puruṣottama or the Superperson, He is the source of the Supersoul also. In the Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 15.18) Lord Kṛṣṇa says that He is the Puruṣottama and the source of everything, and thus it is concluded that Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate source and shelter of all entities including the Supersoul or Supreme Brahman. Even accepting that there is no difference between the Supersoul and the individual soul, the individual soul is dependent on the Supersoul for being liberated from the illusion of material energy. The individual is under the clutches of illusory energy, and therefore although qualitatively one with the Supersoul, he is under the illusion of identifying himself with matter. And to get out of this illusory conception of factual life, the individual soul has to depend on the Supersoul to be recognized as one with Him.

In the Fourth Chapter, Arjuna, the jīva soul, is represented as forgetful of his many, many previous births, but the Lord, the Supersoul, is not forgetful.

The Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa and all His plenary portions and extensions of plenary portions are nondifferent from one another, and thus the supreme independence is there in each and every one of them. In order to prove this, Śukadeva Gosvāmī (as promised to King Parīkṣit) describes herein the independence of the Puruṣa-Avatāra Personality of Godhead, even in the sphere of the material creation. Such activities of the Lord are also transcendental, and therefore they are also līlā, or pastimes, of the absolute Lord. Such pastimes of the Lord are very conducive to the hearers for self-realization in the field of devotional service. Some may argue, why not then relish the transcendental līlā of the Lord as exhibited in the land of Mathurā and Vṛndāvana, which are sweeter than anything in the world? Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravarti Ṭhākur replies that the pastimes of the Lord in Vṛndāvana are meant to be relished by advanced devotees of the Lord. Neophyte devotees will misunderstand such supreme transcendental activities of the Lord, and therefore for the neophyte the Lord's pastimes in the material sphere related to creation, maintenance and destruction are verily relishable by the prākṛta, or mundane devotees of the Lord. As the yoga system mainly based on bodily exercises is meant for the person who is too much attached to the bodily conception of existence, similarly the pastimes of the Lord related to creation and destruction of the material world are for those who are too much materially attached. For such mundane creatures the functions of the body as well as the functions of the cosmic world by physical laws in relationship with the Lord are also therefore included in understanding the lawmaker, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The scientists explain the material functions by so many technological terms of material law, but such blind scientists forget the lawmaker. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam points out the lawmaker. One should not be amazed by the mechanical arrangement of the complicated engine or dynamo, but one should be praising the engineer who creates such a wonderful working machine. That is the difference between the devotee and nondevotee. Devotees are always full with praising the Lord who directs the physical laws. In the Bhagavad-gītā [9.10] the direction of the Lord upon the material nature is described as follows:", + "mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sacarācaram

The actions and reactions of the physical laws work on that account, and thus the material world is created, maintained and annihilated again and again.\"", + "Men with poor fund of knowledge, however, become astonished by studying the physical laws both within the construction of the individual body as well as the cosmic manifestation and foolishly decry the existence of God, taking it for granted that the physical laws are independent without any metaphysical control.

The Lord is, however, visible to the naked eyes of the people in general when He descends Himself by His own personal potency. Lord Kṛṣṇa incarnated Himself as He is and played very wonderful parts as the Lord Himself, and the Bhagavad-gītā concerns such wonderful actions and knowledge, and yet foolish men will not accept Lord Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Lord. Generally they consider the infinitesimal and infinite features of the Lord because they themselves are unable to become either the infinitesimal or the infinite, but one should know that the infinite and infinitesimal sizes of the Lord are not His highest glories. The most wonderful manifestation of the Lord's power is exhibited when the infinite Lord becomes visible to our eyes as one of us. Yet His activities are different from those of the finite beings.

If the human being develops taste without discrimination, as does the swine, then the controlling deity is certainly certified for the next term to award him the body of a swine. The swine accepts any kind of foodstuff, including stools, and a human being who has developed such indiscriminate taste must be prepared for a degraded life in the next life. Such life is also God's grace because the conditioned soul desired a body like that for perfectly tasting a particular type of foodstuff, and if a man gets the body of a swine it must be considered the grace of the Lord because He awards the facility. After death the body is offered by superior control, and not blindly. A human being, therefore, must be on his guard as to what sort of body he is going to have in the next life. Irresponsible life of indiscrimination is risky, and that is the declaration of all scriptures." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ba0db47f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 2.10.20", + "devanagari": "नासिके निरभिद्येतां दोधूयति नभस्वति\nतत्र वायुर्गन्धवहो घ्राणो नसि जिघृक्षतः", + "transliteration": "nāsike nirabhidyetāṁ\ndodhūyati nabhasvati\ntatra vāyur gandha-vaho\nghrāṇo nasi jighṛkṣataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "nāsike", + "meanings": [ + "in the nostrils" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirabhidyetām", + "meanings": [ + "being developed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dodhūyati", + "meanings": [ + "rapidly blowing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nabhasvati", + "meanings": [ + "air respiration" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "thereupon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gandha-vahaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "smelling odor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghrāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sense of smell" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nasi", + "meanings": [ + "in the nose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jighṛkṣataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desiring to smell odors." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter, when the supreme puruṣa desired to smell odors, the nostrils and respiration generated, the nasal instrument and odors came into existence, and the controlling deity of air, carrying smell, also became manifested.", + "purport": [ + "The nasal instrument, odor, and the controlling deity air, smelling, etc., all became manifested simultaneously when the Lord desired to smell.

The impersonalist must know from this verse that the Lord is not impersonal because he has His genitals on which all the pleasurable objects of sex depend. No one would have taken the trouble to maintain children if there were no taste of the heavenly nectar by means of sexual intercourse. This material world is created to give a chance to the conditioned souls for rejuvenation for going back home, back to Godhead, and therefore generation of the living being is necessary for upkeep of the purpose of creation. The sex pleasure is an impetus for such action, and as such one can even serve the Lord in the act of such sex pleasure. The service is counted when the children born out of such sex pleasure are properly trained in God consciousness. The whole idea of material creation is to revive the dormant God consciousness of the living entity. In other forms of life, besides the human form, the sex pleasure is prominent only without any motive of service for the mission of the Lord. But in the human form of life the conditioned soul can render service to the Lord by creating progeny suitable for the attainment of salvation. One can beget hundreds of children and enjoy the celestial pleasure of sexual intercourse provided he is able to train up the children in God consciousness. Otherwise begetting children is on the level of the swine. Rather, the swine is more expert that the human being because the swine can beget a dozen piglets at a time, whereas the human being can give birth to one only at a time. So one should always remember that the genitals, sex pleasure, the woman, and the offspring are all related in the service of the Lord, and one who forgets this relationship in the service of the Supreme Lord becomes subjected to the threefold miseries of material existence by the laws of nature.

He therefore prayed to the Lord to assume His fourhanded Nārāyaṇa or Kṛṣṇa form, which alone could please him (Arjuna). Undoubtedly the Lord has the supreme potency to exhibit Himself in multifarious forms, but the pure devotees of the Lord are interested in His forms as are eternally exhibited in the abode of the Lord, known as the tripād-vibhūti or kingdom of God. The Lord in the tripād-vibhūti abode exhibits Himself in two forms, either with four hands or with two hands. The viśva-rūpa exhibited in the material manifestation has unlimited hands and unlimited dimensions with everything unlimited. The pure devotees of the Lord worship Him in His Vaikuṇṭha forms as Nārāyaṇa or Kṛṣṇa. Sometimes the same Vaikuṇṭha forms of the Lord are in the material world also by His grace as Śrī Rāma, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, Śrī Narasiṁhadeva, etc., and thus the pure devotees also worship them. Usually the features shown in the material world have no existence in the Vaikuṇṭha planets, and thus they are not accepted by the pure devotees. What the pure devotees worship from the very beginning are eternal forms of the Lord existing in the Vaikuṇṭha planets. The nondevotee impersonalists imagine the material forms of the Lord, and ultimately they merge in the impersonal brahmajyoti of the Lord, whereas the pure devotees of the Lord are worshipers of the Lord both in the beginning and also in the perfect stage of salvation, eternally. The worship of the pure devotee never stops, whereas the worship of the impersonalist stops after his attainment of salvation, being merged in the impersonal form of the Lord known as brahmajyoti.

Therefore an intelligent person who can distinguish between the transcendental activities of the Lord and those of the conditioned souls also is not bound by the reactions of activities. The Lord as Viṣṇu, Brahmā and Śiva conducts the three modes of material nature. From Viṣṇu is born Brahmā, and from Brahmā is born Śiva.

Generally, all conditioned souls in the material encagement are influenced by the mode of passion because every one of them is trying to lord it over the material nature to fulfill individual desire. But in spite of the individual mode of passion, there is always the chance of being influenced by other modes of nature by association. If one is in good association he can develop the modes of goodness, and if he is in bad association he may develop the modes of darkness or ignorance. Nothing is stereotyped. One can change his habit by good or bad association, and one has to become intelligent enough to discriminate between good and bad. The best association is the service of the devotees of the Lord, and by that association one can become the highest qualified man by the grace of pure devotees of the Lord. As we have already seen in the life of Śrīla Nārada Muni, he became the topmost devotee of the Lord simply by the association of pure devotees of the Lord. By birth he was the son of a maidservant and had no knowledge of his father and no academic education, even of the lowest status. But simply by associating with the devotees and by eating the remnants of their foodstuff, he gradually developed the transcendental qualities of the devotees. By such association, his taste for chanting and hearing the transcendental glories of the Lord became prominent, and because the glories of the Lord are nondifferent from the Lord, he got direct association with the Lord by means of sound representation. Similarly, there is the life of Ajāmila (Sixth Canto), who was the son of a brāhmaṇa and was educated and trained properly in the discharge of the duties of a brāhmaṇa but in spite of all this, because he contacted the bad association of a prostitute, was put into the path of the lowest quality of caṇḍāla, or the last position of human beings. Therefore the Bhāgavatam recommends always the association of the mahat, or the great soul, for opening the gate of salvation. And to associate with persons engaged in lording it over the material world means to enter into the darkest region of hell.

He is the eternal form of knowledge and bliss, and He executes His almighty will by His different energies. As such He is never the subject of reaction for all His acts. He is transcendental to all such conceptions of action and reactions. Even if He is visible in the material world, the exhibition is only of His internal energy, for He is above the good and bad conceptions of this material world. In the material world the fish or the hog may be considered lower than the man, but when the Lord appears as a fish or hog, He is neither of them in the material conception. It is His causeless mercy that He appears in every society or species of life, but He is never to be considered one of them. Conceptions of the material world such as good and bad, lower and upper, important and insignificant are estimations of the material energy, and the Supreme Lord is transcendental to all such conceptions. The word paraṁ bhāvam, or transcendental nature, can never be compared with the material conception. We should not forget that the potencies of the Almighty Lord are always the same and do not decrease because the Lord assumes the form of a lower animal. There is no difference between Lord Śrī Rāma, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa or His incarnations of fish and hogs. He is all-pervading and simultaneously localized at any and every place. But the foolish person with a poor fund of knowledge, for want of that paraṁ bhāvam of the Lord, cannot understand how the Supreme Lord can take the form of a man or a fish. Everything is compared to its own standard of knowledge, as the frog in the well considers the sea to be one like the well. The frog in the well cannot even think of the sea, and when such a frog is informed of the greatness of the sea it takes the conception of the sea as a little greater than the well. As such, one who is foolish in the transcendental science of the Lord will find it difficult to understand how Lord Viṣṇu can equally manifest Himself in every society of living entities." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/43.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/43.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7d5d1f23 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/43.json @@ -0,0 +1,102 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 43, + "reference": "SB 2.10.43", + "devanagari": "ततः कालाग्निरुद्रात्मा यत्सृष्टम् इदम् आत्मनः\nसन्नियच्छति तत्काले घनानीकम् इवानिलः", + "transliteration": "tataḥ kālāgni-rudrātmā\nyat sṛṣṭam idam ātmanaḥ\nsanniyacchati tat kāle\nghanānīkam ivānilaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "thereafter at the end" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāla", + "meanings": [ + "destruction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agni", + "meanings": [ + "fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rudra-ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "in the form of Rudra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whatever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sṛṣṭam", + "meanings": [ + "created" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of His own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sam", + "meanings": [ + "completely" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niyacchati", + "meanings": [ + "annihilates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat kāle", + "meanings": [ + "at the end of the millennium" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghana-anīkam", + "meanings": [ + "bunches of clouds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like that of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anilaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "air." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter, at the end of the millennium, the Lord Himself in the form of Rudra, the destroyer, will annihilate the complete creation as the wind displaces the clouds.", + "purport": [ + "This creation is very appropriately compared to the clouds.

And to give hope to such foolish conditioned souls who waste their energy in this temporary material world, the Lord gives information that there is another nature which is eternally existent without being occasionally created or destroyed, and the conditioned soul can understand what he should do and how his valuable energy may be utilized. Instead of wasting his energy in matter, which is sure to be destroyed in due course by the supreme will, he (the conditioned soul) should utilize his energy in devotional service of the Lord so that he can be transferred to the other, eternal nature where there is no birth, no death, no creation, no destruction, but permanent life instead, full of knowledge and unlimited bliss.

Gross materialists without any knowledge of Brahman, Paramātmā or Bhagavān conclude material nature to be the ultimate cause of the material manifestation, and the modern scientist also shares this view that material nature is the ultimate cause of all manifestations of the material world. This view is refuted by all Vedic literature. The Vedānta philosophy mentions that Brahman is the fountainhead of all creation, maintenance and destruction, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the natural commentation on the Vedānta philosophy, says, \"janmādy asya yato 'nvayād itarataś cārtheṣv abhijñaḥ svarāṭ,\" etc.", + "Inert matter is potential energy undoubtedly by interactions, but it has no initiative of its own.

Therefore inert matter cannot be the ultimate cause of the creation, maintenance and destruction of the material world. Superficially it appears that the material nature is the cause of creation, maintenance and destruction, but material nature is set into motion for creation by the supreme conscious being, the Personality of Godhead.

When the Lord throws His transcendental glance over the material nature, then only can the material nature act, as the father contacts the mother, and then the mother is able to conceive a child. The material nature therefore produces the moving and standing manifestations of the material world after being contacted by the supreme father, and not independently. Therefore although it appears, to the layman, that the mother gives birth to the child, the experienced man knows that the father gives birth to the child. To consider material nature as the cause of creation, maintenance, etc., is called the \"logic of nipples on the neck of the goat.\" The Caitanya-caritāmṛta by Śrīla Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī describes this logic of ajagalastana as follows (as explained by His Divine Grace Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja): \"The material nature, as the material cause, is known as pradhāna, and as efficient cause is known as māyā.

A piece of iron is certainly not fire, but when the iron is made red-hot, certainly it has the quality of fire through its burning capacity. Matter is compared with the piece of iron, and it is electrified or made red-hot by the glance or manipulation of the supreme consciousness of Viṣṇu. By such electrification only does the energy of matter become displayed by various actions and reactions. Therefore the inert matter is neither efficient nor is it the material cause of the cosmic manifestation. Śrī Kapiladeva has said:", + "yatholmukād visphuliṅgād dhūmād vāpi svasambhavāt

In every one of them, namely in the flames, in the sparks and in the smoke, the integrity of fire is present, and still all of them and each and every one of them are differently situated with different positions. The cosmic manifestation is compared to the smoke (when the smoke passes over the sky so many forms appear resembling many known and unknown manifestations), the sparks are compared to living entities, and the flames are compared to material nature, pradhāna. One must know that each and every one of them is effective simply by being empowered by the quality of fire (original). Therefore every one of them, namely the material nature, the cosmic manifestation and the living entities, are all but different energies of the Lord (fire). Therefore those who accept the material nature as the original cause (prakṛti, the cause of creation according to Sāṅkhya philosophy) of cosmic manifestation are not correct in their conclusion. The material nature has no separate existence without the Lord. Therefore, setting aside the Supreme Lord as the cause of all causes is the logic of ajagalastan, or trying to milk the nipples on the neck of the goat.

There are two classes of men, namely those too much addicted to the gross body and the material world, and the others, on the higher level, who are interested more in transcendental knowledge. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives facility to everyone, both to the materialist and the transcendentalist. And by hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, in the matter of the Lord's glorious activities both in the material world and in the transcendental world, men can derive equal benefit. The materialists are more interested in the physical laws, how they are acting, and they see wonders in those physical glamours. Sometimes, due to physical glamours, they forget the glories of the Lord. They should know definitely that physical activities and their wonders are all initiated by the Lord. The rose flower in the garden gradually takes its shape and color to become beautiful and sweet not by a blind physical law, although it appears like that. Behind that physical law there is the direction of the complete consciousness of the Supreme Lord, otherwise things cannot take shape so systematically. The artist draws a picture of a rose very nicely with all attention and artistic sense, and yet it does not become as perfect as the real rose. If that is the real fact, how can we say that the real rose has taken its shape without intelligence behind the beauty? This sort of conclusion is due to a poor fund of knowledge. One must know from the above description of creation and annihilation that the supreme consciousness is so omnipresent that it can take care of everything with perfect attention. That is the fact of the omnipresence of the Supreme Lord. There are persons, however, still more foolish than the gross materialists, who claim to be transcendentalists, and they claim to have such supreme all-pervading consciousness, but offer no proof. Such foolish persons cannot know what is going on behind the next wall, yet they are falsely proud of possessing the cosmic all-pervading consciousness of the Supreme Person. For them also, hearing of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is a great help to open their eyes that by simply claiming supreme consciousness one does not become so, but actually one has to prove in the physical world that he has such supreme consciousness. The ṛṣis of Naimiṣāraṇya, however, were above the gross materialists and the false transcendentalists, and thus they are always anxious to know the real truth in transcendental matters, as they are discussed by authorities." + ], + "verse_end": 50 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/51.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/51.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..03c0054c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/02/chapters/10/verses/51.json @@ -0,0 +1,101 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 2, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 51, + "reference": "SB 2.10.51", + "devanagari": "सूत उवाच\nराज्ञा परीक्षिता पृष्टो यद् अवोचन्महामुनिः\nतद्वो ऽभिधास्ये शृणुत राज्ञः प्रश्नानुसारतः", + "transliteration": "sūta uvāca\nrājñā parīkṣitā pṛṣṭo\nyad avocan mahā-muniḥ\ntad vo 'bhidhāsye śṛṇuta\nrājñaḥ praśnānusārataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī sūtaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Sūta Gosvāmī replied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājñā", + "meanings": [ + "by the King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parīkṣitā", + "meanings": [ + "by Parīkṣit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "as asked" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avocat", + "meanings": [ + "spoke" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-muniḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great sage" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that very thing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhidhāsye", + "meanings": [ + "I shall explain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śṛṇuta", + "meanings": [ + "please hear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājñaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praśna", + "meanings": [ + "question" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anusārataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in accordance with." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Sūta Gosvāmī explained: I shall now explain to you the very subjects which were explained by the great sage in answer to King Parīkṣit's inquiries.

If one puts letters in postboxes authorized by the general post office, the function of carrying letters is performed without a doubt. Similarly, the arcā-mūrti can also deliver the same unlimited potency of the Lord as when He is personally present. Vidura, therefore, could see nothing but Kṛṣṇa in the different arcā forms, and ultimately he was able to realize Kṛṣṇa alone and nothing else." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..68ef376d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 3.1.19", + "devanagari": "गां पर्यटन्मेध्यविविक्तवृत्तिः सदा ऽऽप्लुतो ऽधः शयनो ऽवधूतः\nअलक्षितः स्वैर् अवधूतवेषो व्रतानि चेरे हरितोषणानि", + "transliteration": "gāṁ paryaṭan medhya-vivikta-vṛttiḥ\nsadā ''pluto 'dhaḥ śayano 'vadhūtaḥ\nalakṣitaḥ svair avadhūta-veṣo\nvratāni cere hari-toṣaṇāni", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "gām", + "meanings": [ + "earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paryaṭan", + "meanings": [ + "traversing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "medhya", + "meanings": [ + "pure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vivikta-vṛttiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "independent occupation for living" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadā", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āplutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sanctified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "on the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śayanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "lying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avadhūtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without dressing (of the hair, etc.)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alakṣitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without being seen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "alone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avadhūta-veṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "dressed like a mendicant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vratāni", + "meanings": [ + "vows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cere", + "meanings": [ + "performed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hari-toṣaṇāni", + "meanings": [ + "that pleases the Lord." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "While so traversing the earth, he simply performed duties to please the Supreme Lord Hari.

This system is called varṇāśrama-dharma and has already been discussed in many places in this great literature.

The denizens of superior planets, from the moon planet and upwards, were known as devas. Both the dvija-devas and the devas always establish temples of Lord Viṣṇu in His various forms, such as Govinda, Madhusūdana, Nṛsiṁha, Mādhava, Keśava, Nārāyaṇa, Padmanābha, Pārthasārathi and many others. The Lord expands Himself in innumerable forms, but all of them are nondifferent from one another. Lord Viṣṇu has four hands, and each hand holds a particular item—either a conchshell, wheel, club or lotus flower. Of these four emblems, the cakra, or wheel, is the chief. Lord Kṛṣṇa, being the original Viṣṇu form, has only one emblem, namely the wheel, and therefore He is sometimes called the Cakrī. The Lord's cakra is the symbol of the power by which the Lord controls the whole manifestation. The tops of Viṣṇu temples are marked with the symbol of the wheel so that people may have the chance to see the symbol from a very long distance and at once remember Lord Kṛṣṇa. The purpose of building very high temples is to give people a chance to see them from a distant place. This system is carried on in India whenever a new temple is constructed, and it appears that it is coming down from a time before recorded history. The foolish propaganda by atheists that temples were only constructed in later days is refuted here because Vidura visited these temples at least 5,000 years ago, and the temples of Viṣṇu were in existence long, long before Vidura visited them. The great sages and demigods never established statues of men or demigods, but they established temples of Viṣṇu for the benefit of common men, to raise them to the platform of God consciousness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/24.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/24.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..91d973cc --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/24.json @@ -0,0 +1,119 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 24, + "reference": "SB 3.1.24", + "devanagari": "ततस्त्व् अतिव्रज्य सुराष्ट्रम् ऋद्धं सौवीरमत्स्यान्कुरुजांगलांश्च\nकालेन तावद्यमुनाम् उपेत्य तत्रोद्धवं भागवतं ददर्श", + "transliteration": "tatas tv ativrajya surāṣṭram ṛddhaṁ\nsauvīra-matsyān kurujāṅgalāṁś ca\nkālena tāvad yamunām upetya\ntatroddhavaṁ bhāgavataṁ dadarśa", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ativrajya", + "meanings": [ + "by passing over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "surāṣṭram", + "meanings": [ + "the kingdom of Surat" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛddham", + "meanings": [ + "very wealthy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sauvīra", + "meanings": [ + "the kingdom of Sauvīra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "matsyān", + "meanings": [ + "the kingdom of Matsya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kurujāṅgalān", + "meanings": [ + "the kingdom of western India up to the Delhi province" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kālena", + "meanings": [ + "in course of time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāvat", + "meanings": [ + "as soon as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yamunām", + "meanings": [ + "bank of the River Yamunā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upetya", + "meanings": [ + "reaching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uddhavam", + "meanings": [ + "Uddhava, one of the prominent Yadus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavatam", + "meanings": [ + "the great devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadarśa", + "meanings": [ + "happened to see." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter he passed through very wealthy provinces like Surat, Sauvīra and Matsya and through western India, known as Kurujāṅgala.

Later on, with the advent of the age of Kali, the wives gradually began to be less adherent to their husbands, and the voluntary embrace of the fire by the widows became a thing of the past. Very recently the system was abolished, since the voluntary system had become a forcible social custom.", + "When Mahārāja Pāṇḍu died, both his wives, namely Kuntī and Mādrī, were prepared to embrace the fire, but Mādrī requested Kuntī to live for the sake of the younger children, the five Pāṇḍavas. This was agreed upon by Kuntī at the added request of Vyāsadeva. In spite of her great bereavement, Kuntī decided to live, not to enjoy life in the absence of her husband, but only to give protection to the children. This incidence is referred to here by Vidura because he knew all the facts about his sister in-law, Kuntīdevī. It is understood that Mahārāja Pāṇḍu was a great warrior and that he alone, with the help of bow and arrow, could conquer the world's four directions. In the absence of such a husband, it was almost impossible for Kuntī to live on even as a widow, but she had to do it for the sake of the five children." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/41.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/41.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..fe768d59 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/01/verses/41.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 41, + "reference": "SB 3.1.41", + "devanagari": "सौम्यानुशोचे तम् अधःपतन्तं भ्रात्रे परेताय विदुद्रुहे यः\nनिर्यापितो येन सुहृत्स्वपुर्या अहं स्वपुत्रान्समनुव्रतेन", + "transliteration": "saumyānuśoce tam adhaḥ-patantaṁ\nbhrātre paretāya vidudruhe yaḥ\nniryāpito yena suhṛt sva-puryā\nahaṁ sva-putrān samanuvratena", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saumya", + "meanings": [ + "O gentle one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśoce", + "meanings": [ + "just lamenting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhaḥ-patantam", + "meanings": [ + "gliding down" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātre", + "meanings": [ + "on his brother's" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paretāya", + "meanings": [ + "death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidudruhe", + "meanings": [ + "revolted against" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niryāpitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "driven out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suhṛt", + "meanings": [ + "well-wisher" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-puryāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from his own house" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "myself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-putrān", + "meanings": [ + "with his own sons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samanuvratena", + "meanings": [ + "accepting the same line of action." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O gentle one, I simply lament for him [Dhṛtarāṣṭra] who rebelled against his brother after death.

This stage of dependence is called sattva-saṁśuddhiḥ, or purification of one's existence. The result of such purification is exhibited in fearlessness.

The question may be raised, \"Why did He tolerate such injustices and insults in His presence? Why did He not chastise the Kurus immediately?\" When Draupadī was insulted in the assembly by the Kurus by their attempt to see her naked in the presence of all, the Lord protected Draupadī by supplying an unlimited length of clothing. But He did not chastise the insulting party immediately. This silence of the Lord did not mean, however, that He excused the offenses of the Kurus.

The Lord was just waiting to get them together on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra and kill them all at one time, just to make a short-cut in His killing mission.

The pure devotee lives constantly in the abode of the Supreme Lord, even in the present body, which apparently belongs to this world. The pure devotee is not exactly on the bodily plane, since he is absorbed in the transcendental thought of the Supreme. When Uddhava wanted to speak to Vidura, he came down from the abode of the Lord, Dvārakā, to the material plane of human beings. Even though a pure devotee is present on this mortal planet, he is here in relation to the Lord for engagement in transcendental loving service, and not for any material cause. A living entity can live either on the material plane or in the transcendental abode of the Lord, in accordance with his existential condition. The conditional changes of the living entity are explained in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta in the instructions given to Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī by Lord Śrī Caitanya: \"The living entities all over the universes are enjoying the effects of the respective fruitive results of their own work, life after life. Out of all of them, some may be influenced by the association of pure devotees and thus get the chance to execute devotional service by attainment of taste. This taste is the seed of devotional service, and one who is fortunate enough to have received such a seed is advised to sow it in the core of his heart. As one cultivates a seed by pouring water to fructify it, similarly the seed of devotional service sown in the heart of the devotee may be cultured by pouring water in the form of hearing and chanting of the holy name and pastimes of the Lord. The creeper of devotional service, so nourished, gradually grows, and the devotee, acting as a gardener, goes on pouring the water of constant hearing and chanting. The creeper of devotional service gradually grows so high that it passes through the entire material universe and enters into the spiritual sky, growing still higher and higher until it reaches the planet of Goloka Vṛndāvana. The devotee gardener is in touch with the abode of the Lord even from the material plane by dint of performing devotional service to the Lord simply by hearing and chanting. As a creeper takes shelter of another, stronger tree, similarly the creeper of devotional service, nourished by the devotee, takes shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord and thus becomes fixed. When the creeper is fixed, then the fruit of the creeper comes into existence, and the gardener who nourished it is able to enjoy this fruit of love, and his life becomes successful.\" That Uddhava attained this stage is evident from his dealings.

Uddhava could understand the grief of Vidura, and therefore he first of all wanted to sympathize with him by saying that after the sunset everyone is in darkness. Since the entire world was merged in the darkness of grief, neither Vidura nor Uddhava nor anyone else could be happy. Uddhava was as much aggrieved as Vidura, and there was nothing further to be said about their welfare.", + "The comparison of Kṛṣṇa to the sun is very appropriate. As soon as the sun sets, darkness automatically appears. But the darkness experienced by the common man does not affect the sun itself either at the time of sunrise or of sunset. Lord Kṛṣṇa's appearance and disappearance are exactly like that of the sun. He appears and disappears in innumerable universes, and as long as He is present in a particular universe there is all transcendental light in that universe, but the universe from which He passes away is put into darkness. His pastimes, however, are everlasting. The Lord is always present in some universe, just as the sun is present either in the eastern or the western hemisphere. The sun is always present either in India or in America, but when the sun is present in India, the American land is in darkness, and when the sun is present in America, the Indian hemisphere is in darkness.", + "As the sun appears in the morning and gradually rises up to the meridian and then again sets in one hemisphere while simultaneously rising in the other, so Lord Kṛṣṇa's disappearance in one universe and the beginning of His different pastimes in another take place simultaneously.

There is a milk ocean in the upper planets, and there Lord Viṣṇu, who controls the heart of every living being as Paramātmā (the Supersoul), resides as the Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Those who do not believe in the existence of the ocean of milk because they have experience only of the salty water in the ocean should know that the world is also called the Go, which means the cow. The urine of a cow is salty, and according to Āyurvedic medicine, the cow's urine is very effective in treating patients suffering from liver trouble. Such patients may not have any experience of the cow's milk because milk is never given to liver patients. But the liver patient may know that the cow has milk also, although he has never tasted it. Similarly, men who have experience only of this tiny planet where the salt-water ocean exists may take information from the revealed scriptures that there is also an ocean of milk, although we have never seen it. From this ocean of milk the moon was born, but the fish in the milk ocean could not recognize that the moon was not another fish and was different from them. The fish took the moon to be one of them or maybe something illuminating, but nothing more. The unfortunate persons who do not recognize Lord Kṛṣṇa are like such fish. They take Him to be one of them, although a little extraordinary in opulence, strength, etc. The Bhagavad-gītā confirms such foolish persons to be most unfortunate: avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam.

All these events are perfect arrangements to give perfection to His supreme glories. It is for enjoyment's sake. When a father plays with his little son and the father lays down on the floor as if defeated by the son, it is just to give the little son pleasure, and nothing more.

But because the Lord is absolute, His two different kinds of actions, although apparently different, are ultimately one and the same. His annihilation of a person like Śiśupāla is as auspicious as His actions for the protection of the faithful. All the warriors who fought against Arjuna but who were able to see the lotuslike face of the Lord on the battlefront achieved the abode of the Lord, exactly as the devotees of the Lord do. The words \"pleasing to the eyes of the seer\" are very significant. When the warriors from the other side of the battlefield saw Lord Kṛṣṇa at the front, they appreciated His beauty, and their dormant instinct of love of God was awakened. Śiśupāla saw the Lord also, but he saw Him as his enemy, and his love was not awakened. Therefore Śiśupāla achieved oneness with the Lord by merging in the impersonal glare of His body, called the brahmajyoti. Others, who were in the marginal position, being neither friends nor enemies but slightly in love of Godhead by appreciating the beauty of His face, were at once promoted to the spiritual planets, the Vaikuṇṭhas. The Lord's personal abode is called Goloka Vṛndāvana, and the abodes where His plenary expansions reside are called the Vaikuṇṭhas, where the Lord is present as Nārāyaṇa. Love of Godhead is dormant in every living entity, and the entire process of devotional service unto the Lord is meant for awakening this dormant, eternal love of Godhead. But there are degrees of such transcendental awakening. Those whose love of God is awakened to the fullest extent go back to Goloka Vṛndāvana planet in the spiritual sky, whereas persons who have just awakened to love of Godhead by accident or association are transferred to the Vaikuṇṭha planets. Essentially there is no material difference between Goloka and Vaikuṇṭha, but in the Vaikuṇṭhas the Lord is served in unlimited opulence, whereas in Goloka the Lord is served in natural affection.", + "This love of God is awakened by the association of pure devotees of the Lord. Here the word pārthāstra-pūtaḥ is significant. Those who saw the beautiful face of the Lord on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra were purified first by Arjuna when he made his onslaught with arrows. The Lord appeared for the mission of diminishing the burden of the world, and Arjuna was assisting the Lord by fighting on His behalf. Arjuna personally declined to fight, and the whole instruction of the Bhagavad-gītā was given to Arjuna to engage him in the fight. As a pure devotee of the Lord, Arjuna agreed to fight in preference to his own decision, and thus Arjuna fought to assist the Lord in His mission of diminishing the burden of the world. All the activities of a pure devotee are executed on behalf of the Lord because a pure devotee of the Lord has nothing to do for his personal interest. Arjuna's killing was as good as killing by the Lord Himself. As soon as Arjuna shot an arrow at an enemy, that enemy became purified of all material contaminations and became eligible to be transferred to the spiritual sky. Those warriors who appreciated the lotus feet of the Lord and saw His face at the front had their dormant love of God awakened, and thus they were transferred at once to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, not to the impersonal state of brahmajyoti as was Śiśupāla. Śiśupāla died without appreciating the Lord, while others died with appreciation of the Lord. Both were transferred to the spiritual sky, but those who awakened to love of God were transferred to the planets of the transcendental sky.", + "Uddhava seemingly lamented that his own position was less than that of the warriors on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra because they had attained to Vaikuṇṭha, whereas he remained to lament the disappearance of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/02/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/02/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6f17bdf7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/02/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 3.2.21", + "devanagari": "स्वयं त्व् असाम्यातिशयस्त्र्यधीशः स्वाराज्यलक्ष्म्याप्तसमस्तकामः\nबलिं हरद्भिश्चिरलोकपालैः किरीटकोट्येडितपादपीठः", + "transliteration": "svayaṁ tv asāmyātiśayas tryadhīśaḥ\nsvārājya-lakṣmyāpta-samastakāmaḥ\nbaliṁ haradbhiś cira-loka-pālaiḥ\nkirīṭa-koṭy-eḍitapādapīṭhaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "Himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asāmya", + "meanings": [ + "unique" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atiśayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "greater" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tri-adhīśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord of the three" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svārājya", + "meanings": [ + "independent supremacy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lakṣmī", + "meanings": [ + "fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpta", + "meanings": [ + "achieved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samastakāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balim", + "meanings": [ + "worshiping paraphernalia" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haradbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "offered by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cira-loka-pālaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the eternal maintainers of the order of creation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kirīṭa-koṭi", + "meanings": [ + "millions of helmets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eḍita-pāda-pīṭhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "feet honored by prayers." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the Lord of all kinds of threes and is independently supreme by achievement of all kinds of fortune.

He lived there for eleven years and completed all His fascinating pastimes of childhood, boyhood and adolescence with His elder brother, Lord Baladeva, His first expansion. Vasudeva's thought of protecting Kṛṣṇa from the wrath of Kaṁsa is part of a transcendental relationship. The Lord enjoys more when someone takes Him as his subordinate son who needs the protection of a father than He does when someone accepts Him as the Supreme Lord. He is the father of everyone, and He protects everyone, but when His devotee takes it for granted that the Lord is to be protected by the devotee's care, it is a transcendental joy for the Lord.

According to smṛti regulation, the cow is the mother and the bull the father of the human being. The cow is the mother because just as one sucks the breast of one's mother, human society takes cow's milk.

Nanda Mahārāja was a well-to-do landholder and owner of many cows, and, as was the custom, he used to perform yearly worship of Indra, the King of heaven, with great opulence. This worship of demigods by the general populace is also advised in the Vedic literature just so people can accept the superior power of the Lord. The demigods are servants of the Lord deputed to look after the management of various activities of universal affaris. Therefore it is advised in the Vedic scriptures that one should perform yajñas to appease the demigods. But one who is devoted to the Supreme Lord has no need to appease the demigods. Worship of the demigods by common people is an arrangement for acknowledging the supremacy of the Supreme Lord, but it is not necessary. Such appeasement is generally recommended for material gains only. As we have already discussed in the Second Canto of this literature, one who admits the supremacy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead does not need to worship the secondary demigods. Sometimes, being worshiped and adored by less intelligent living beings, the demigods become puffed up with power and forget the supremacy of the Lord. This happened when Lord Kṛṣṇa was present in the universe, and thus the Lord wanted to give a lesson to the King of heaven, Indra. He therefore asked Mahārāja Nanda to stop the sacrifice offered to Indra and to use the money properly by performing a ceremony worshiping the cows and the pasturing ground on the hill of Govardhana. By this act Lord Kṛṣṇa taught human society, as He has instructed in the Bhagavad-gītā also, that one should worship the Supreme Lord by all acts and by all their results.

The earth is never overburdened. The heaviest mountains and oceans on the face of the earth hold more living entities than there are human beings, and they are not overburdened. If a census were taken of all the living beings on the surface of the earth, certainly it would be found that the number of humans is not even five percent of the total number of living beings. If the birth rate of human beings is increasing, then the birth rate of other living beings is increasing proportionately. The birth rate of lower animals—beasts, aquatics, birds, etc.—is far greater than that of human beings. There is an adequate arrangement for food for all the living beings all over the earth by the order of the Supreme Lord, and He can arrange more and more if there is actually a disproportionate increase of living beings.", + "Therefore, there is no question of an increase in population causing a burden. The earth became overburdened due to dharma-glāni, or irregular discharge of the Lord's desire. The Lord appeared on the earth to curb the increase in miscreants, and not the increase in population, as is wrongly put forward by the mundane economist. When Lord Kṛṣṇa appeared, there had been a sufficient increase in miscreants who had violated the desire of the Lord. The material creation is meant for fulfilling the desire of the Lord, and His desire is that the conditioned souls who are unfit to enter into the kingdom of God have a chance to improve their conditions for entering. The entire process of cosmic arrangement is intended just to give a chance to the conditioned souls to enter the kingdom of God, and there is an adequate arrangement for their maintenance by the nature of the Lord.", + "Therefore, although there may be a great increase in population on the surface of the earth, if the people are exactly in line with God consciousness and are not miscreants, such a burden on the earth is a source of pleasure for her. There are two kinds of burdens. There is the burden of the beast and the burden of love. The burden of the beast is unbearable, but the burden of love is a source of pleasure. Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī describes the burden of love very practically. He says that the burden of the husband on the young wife, the burden of the child on the lap of the mother, and the burden of wealth on the businessman, although actually burdens from the viewpoint of heaviness, are sources of pleasure, and in the absence of such burdensome objects, one may feel the burden of separation, which is heavier to bear than the actual burden of love. When Lord Kṛṣṇa referred to the burden of the Yadu dynasty on the earth, He referred to something different than the burden of the beast. The large numbers of family members born of Lord Kṛṣṇa counted to some millions and were certainly a great increase in the population of the earth, but because all of them were expansions of the Lord Himself by His transcendental plenary expansions, they were a source of great pleasure for the earth.

How they could be vanquished in the presence of the Lord is answered in this verse: everything was done by the Lord Himself (svātma-māyā yāḥ). The Lord's family members were either incarnations of His plenary expansions or demigods from the heavenly planets, and thus before His departure He separated them by His internal potency. Before being dispatched to their respective abodes, they were sent to the holy place of Prabhāsa, where they performed pious activities and took food and drink to their heart's content. It was then arranged for them to be sent back to their abodes so that others could see that the powerful Yadu dynasty was no longer in the world. In the previous verse, the word anujñāta, indicating that the whole sequence of events was arranged by the Lord, is significant. These particular pastimes of the Lord are not a manifestation of His external energy or material nature.

One who knows the distinctions between the conception of Brahman and the conception of Supreme Brahman is certainly the real transcendentalist. There is no bewilderment for such transcendentalists.

These four very great and important verses from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam [2.9.33-36] are particularly taken out by the Māyāvādī speculators, who construe a different purport to suit their impersonal view of monism. Here is the proper answer to such unauthorized speculators. The verses of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are purely theistic science understandable by the postgraduate students of Bhagavad-gītā. The unauthorized dry speculators are offenders at the lotus feet of the Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa because they distort the purports of Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam to mislead the public and prepare a direct path to the hell known as andha-tāmisra. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 16.20) such envious speculators are without knowledge and are surely condemned life after life. They unnecessarily take shelter of Śrīpāda Śaṅkarācārya, but he was not so drastic as to commit an offense at the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa. According to Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Śrīpāda Śaṅkarācārya preached the Māyāvādī philosophy for a particular purpose. Such a philosophy was necessary to defeat the Buddhist philosophy of the nonexistence of the spirit soul, but it was never meant for perpetual acceptance. It was an emergency. Thus Lord Kṛṣṇa was accepted by Śaṅkarācārya as the Supreme Personality of Godhead in his commentation on Bhagavad-gītā. Since he was a great devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa, he did not dare write any commentary on Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam because that would have been a direct offense at the lotus feet of the Lord. But later speculators, in the name of Māyāvādī philosophy, unnecessarily make their commentary on the Catuḥślokī Bhāgavatam without any bona fide intent.", + "The monistic dry speculators have no business in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam because this particular Vedic literature is forbidden for them by the great author himself. Śrīla Vyāsadeva has definitely forbidden persons engaged in religiosity, economic development, sense gratification and finally, salvation, from trying to understand Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, which is not meant for them (Bhāg. 1.1.2). Śrīpāda Śrīdhara Svāmī, the great commentator on Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, has definitely forbidden the Salvationists or monists to deal in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. It is not for them. Yet such unauthorized persons perversely try to understand Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and thus they commit offense at the feet of the Lord, which even Śrīpāda Śaṅkarācārya dared not do. Thus they prepare for their continuation of miserable life. It should be particularly noted herein that Uddhava studied the Catuḥślokī Bhāgavatam [2.9.33-36] directly from the Lord, who spoke them first to Brahmājī, and this time the Lord explained more confidentially the self-knowledge mentioned as the paramāṁ sthitim. Upon learning such self-knowledge of love, Uddhava felt very much aggrieved by feelings of separation from the Lord. Unless one is awakened to the stage of Uddhava—everlastingly feeling the separation of the Lord in transcendental love, as was exhibited by Lord Caitanya also—one cannot understand the real import of the four essential verses of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. One should not indulge in the unauthorized act of twisting the meaning and thereby putting himself on the dangerous path of offense." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/04/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/04/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2b3f4197 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/04/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 3.4.21", + "devanagari": "सो ऽहं तद्दर्शनाह्लाद वियोगार्तियुतः प्रभो\nगमिष्ये दयितं तस्य बदर्याश्रममण्डलम्", + "transliteration": "so 'haṁ tad-darśanāhlāda\nviyogārtiyutaḥ prabho\ngamiṣye dayitaṁ tasya\nbadaryāśrama-maṇḍalam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ aham", + "meanings": [ + "thus myself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "His" + ] + }, + { + "word": "darśana", + "meanings": [ + "audience" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhlāda", + "meanings": [ + "pleasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viyoga", + "meanings": [ + "without that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārtiyutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "afflicted by distress" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabho", + "meanings": [ + "my dear sir" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gamiṣye", + "meanings": [ + "shall go" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dayitam", + "meanings": [ + "so instructed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "His" + ] + }, + { + "word": "badaryāśrama", + "meanings": [ + "Badarikāśrama, in the Himalayas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṇḍalam", + "meanings": [ + "association." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Vidura, now I am mad for want of the pleasure of seeing Him, and just to mitigate this I am now proceeding to Badarikāśrama in the Himalayas for association, as I have been instructed by Him.", + "purport": [ + "A pure devotee of the Lord of the standard of Uddhava constantly associates with the Lord in the double perception of simultaneous separation and meeting.

A living being is not the material body but an eternal part and parcel of the Supreme Being, and thus revival of his self-knowledge is very essential. Without this knowledge, the human life is baffled. The servants of the Lord, Viṣṇu, are entrusted with this responsible work, and so they wander over the earth and to all other planets in the universe. Thus the knowledge which was received by Uddhava directly from the Lord deserves to be distributed in human society, especially to persons like Vidura who are highly advanced in the devotional service of the Lord.", + "Real transcendental knowledge descends in the disciplic succession from the Lord to Uddhava, from Uddhava to Vidura and so on. Such supreme transcendental knowledge is not possible to achieve by the process of imperfect speculation as performed by the so-called learned mundane wranglers. Vidura was anxious to know from Uddhava that confidential knowledge known as paramāṁ sthitim, in which the Lord is known by His transcendental pastimes. Although Vidura was older than Uddhava, he was anxious to become a servant of Uddhava in the transcendental relationship. This formula of transcendental disciplic succession is taught by Lord Caitanya also. Lord Caitanya advises that one receive transcendental knowledge from anyone—whether a brāhmaṇa or a śūdra, a householder or a sannyāsī—provided that person is factually conversant with the science of Kṛṣṇa. A person who knows the science of Kṛṣṇa is factually a bona fide spiritual master." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/04/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/04/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..13991a90 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/04/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,88 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 3.4.26", + "devanagari": "उद्धव उवाच\nननु ते तत्त्वसंराध्य ऋषिः कौषारवो ऽन्तिके\nसाक्षाद्भगवता ऽऽदिष्टो मर्त्यलोकं जिहासता", + "transliteration": "uddhava uvāca\nnanu te tattva-saṁrādhya\nṛṣiḥ kauṣāravo 'ntike\nsākṣād bhagavatā ''diṣṭo\nmartya-lokaṁ jihāsatā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī uddhavaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Uddhava said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nanu", + "meanings": [ + "however" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "yourself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tattva-saṁrādhyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who is worshipable for reception of transcendental knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "learned scholar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kauṣāravaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unto the son of Kuṣāru (Maitreya)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antike", + "meanings": [ + "staying nearby" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sākṣāt", + "meanings": [ + "directly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavatā", + "meanings": [ + "by the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādiṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "instructed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "martya-lokam", + "meanings": [ + "mortal world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jihāsatā", + "meanings": [ + "while quitting." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Uddhava said: You may take lessons from the great learned sage Maitreya, who is nearby and who is worshipable for reception of transcendental knowledge.

Here in this verse the word sphītam is also used, which indicates that He left His gigantic universal form called the virāṭa-rūpa, not His primeval, eternal form, because there is hardly any possibility of His changing His form of sac-cid-ānanda. This simple understanding is at once realized by the devotees of the Lord, but those who are nondevotees, who perform hardly any devotional service to the Lord, either do not understand this simple fact or purposely raise a controversy to defeat the eternity of the transcendental body of the Lord.

(Bg. 7.25) The Lord reserves the right of not being exposed to everyone. In the Padma Purāṇa it is said, ataḥ śrī-kṛṣṇa-nāmādi na bhaved grāhyam indriyaiḥ. The name and form of the Lord cannot be perceived by the material senses, but when He appears within the vision of the mundane people He assumes the form of the virāṭa-rūpa. This is an additional material exhibition of form and is supported by the logic of a subject and its adjectives. In grammar, when an adjective is taken away from the subject, the subject it modifies does not change. Similarly, when the Lord quits His virāṭa-rūpa, His eternal form does not change, although there is no material difference between Himself and any one of His innumerable forms.

Every living entity can, like Uddhava, also become a confidential messenger on the same level as the Lord, provided he becomes confidential himself by dint of loving devotional service. Such confidential knowledge is entrusted, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, only to pure devotees like Uddhava and Arjuna, and one has to learn the mystery through them, and not otherwise.

Such subject matters are certainly of increasing interest because the researchers have to search out the transcendental abode of the Lord, which He enters after finishing His pastimes in the mortal world. But even the great sages have no information that beyond the material sky there is the spiritual sky where Śrī Kṛṣṇa eternally resides with His associates, although at the same time He exhibits His pastimes in the mortal world in all the universes one after another.

This practice can help the neophyte devotee to rise to the stage of rāga-bhakti, in which the Lord responds from within as the caitta-guru or the spiritual master as Super-consciousness. All transcendentalists other than devotees do not make any distinction between the individual soul and the Supersoul because they miscalculate the Superconsciousness and individual consciousness to be one and the same. Such miscalculation by the nondevotees makes them unfit to receive any direction from within, and therefore they are bereft of the direct cooperation of the Lord. After many, many births, when such a nondualist comes to sense that the Lord is worshipable and that the devotee is simultaneously one and different from the Lord, then only can he surrender unto the Lord, Vāsudeva. Pure devotional service begins from that point. The process of understanding the Absolute Truth adopted by the misguided nondualist is very difficult, whereas the devotee's way of understanding the Absolute Truth comes directly from the Lord, who is pleased by devotional service.

Kṛṣṇa-kathā, or topics regarding Kṛṣṇa, are transcendental, and there is no satiation in hearing such topics. Bhagavad-gītā is important on account of its being Kṛṣṇa-kathā, or speeches delivered by Lord Kṛṣṇa. The story of the Battle of Kurukṣetra may be interesting for the mass of people, but to a person like Vidura who is highly advanced in devotional service, only Kṛṣṇa-kathā and that which is dovetailed with Kṛṣṇa-kathā is interesting. Vidura wanted to hear of everything from Maitreya, and so he inquired from him, but he desired that all the topics be in relationship with Kṛṣṇa. As fire is never satisfied in its consumption of firewood, so a pure devotee of the Lord never hears enough about Kṛṣṇa. Historical events and other narrations concerning social and political incidents all become transcendental as soon as they are in relationship with Kṛṣṇa.

Family affection is an illusory manifestation of the external energy, and it is the only impetus for all mundane activities. As long as there is mundane activity and the mind is absorbed in such engagement, one has to undergo the repetition of birth and death in the current material nescience. People are most influenced by the mode of ignorance, and some are influenced by the passionate mode of material nature, and under the spell of these two modes a living being is actuated by the material conception of life. The mundane qualities do not allow a living entity to understand his real position. The qualities of both ignorance and passion strongly bind one to the illusory bodily conception of the self. The best among the fools who are thus deluded are those who engage in altruistic activities under the spell of the material mode of passion. Bhagavad-gītā, which is direct Kṛṣṇa-kathā, gives humanity the elementary lesson that the body is perishable and that the consciousness which is spread throughout the body is imperishable. The conscious being, the imperishable self, is eternally existent and cannot be killed under any circumstances, even after the dissolution of the body. Anyone who misunderstands this perishable body to be the self and who works for it in the name of sociology, politics, philanthropy, altruism, nationalism or internationalism, under the false plea of the bodily conception of life, is certainly a fool and does not know the implications of reality and unreality. Some of them are above the modes of ignorance and passion and are situated in the mode of goodness, but mundane goodness is always contaminated by tinges of ignorance and passion. Mundane goodness can enlighten one that the body and the self are different, and one in goodness is concerned with the self and not the body. But due to being contaminated, those in mundane goodness cannot understand the real nature of the self as a person. Their impersonal conception of the self as distinct from the body keeps them in the mode of goodness within material nature, and unless they are attracted by Kṛṣṇa-kathā, they will never be liberated from the bondage of material existence. Kṛṣṇa-kathā is the only remedy for all people of the world because it can situate one in pure consciousness of the self and liberate one from material bondage.

As stated in Bhāgavatam (1.4.25), Śrīla Vyāsadeva compiled the Mahābhārata for the less intelligent class of men who take more interest in mundane topics than in the philosophy of life. The Vedānta-sūtra was compiled for persons already above the mundane topics, who might already have tasted the bitterness of the so-called happiness of mundane affairs. The first aphorism of Vedānta-sūtra is athāto brahma-jijñāsā, i.e., only when one has finished the business of mundane inquiries in the marketplace of sense gratification can one make relevant inquiries regarding Brahman, the Transcendence. Those persons who are busy with the mundane inquiries which fill the newspapers and other such literatures are classified as strī-śūdra-dvijabandhus, or women, the laborer class and unworthy sons of the higher classes (brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya and vaiśya). Such less intelligent men cannot understand the purpose of Vedānta-sūtra, although they may make a show of studying the sūtras in a perverted way. The real purpose of Vedānta-sūtra is explained by the author himself in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and anyone trying to understand Vedānta-sūtra without reference to Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is certainly misguided. Such misguided persons, who are interested in the mundane affairs of philanthropic and altruistic work under the misconception of the body as the self, could better take advantage of the Mahābhārata, which was specifically compiled by Śrīla Vyāsadeva for their benefit. The great author has compiled the Mahābhārata in such a way that the less intelligent class of men, who are more interested in mundane topics, may read the Mahābhārata with great relish and in the course of such mundane happiness can also take advantage of Bhagavad-gītā, the preliminary study of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or the Vedānta-sūtra. Śrīla Vyāsadeva had no interest in writing a history of mundane activities other than to give less intelligent persons a chance for transcendental realization through Bhagavad-gītā.

Although they have no access to the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the followers of the Māyāvādī (impersonalist) school sometimes screw out an imaginary explanation of the original four verses, but we must accept the actual explanation given herein by Maitreya Muni because he, along with Uddhava, personally heard it directly from the Lord. The first line of the original four verses runs, aham evāsam evāgre. The word aham is misinterpreted by the Māyāvādī school into meanings which no one but the interpreter can understand. Here aham is explained as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, not the individual living entities. Before the creation, there was only the Personality of Godhead; there were no puruṣa incarnations and certainly no living entities, nor was there the material energy, by which the manifested creation is effected. The puruṣa incarnations and all the different energies of the Supreme Lord were merged in Him only.", + "The Personality of Godhead is described herein as the master of all other living entities. He is like the sun disc, and the living entities are like the molecules of the sun's rays. This existence of the Lord before the creation is confirmed by the śrutis: vāsudevo vā idaṁ agra āsīt na brahmā na ca śaṅkaraḥ, eko vai nārāyaṇa āsīt na brahmā na īśāno. Because everything that be is an emanation from the Personality of Godhead, He therefore always exists alone without a second. He can so exist because He is all-perfect and omnipotent. Everything other than Him, including His plenary expansions the Viṣṇu-tattvas, is His part and parcel. Before the creation there were no Kāraṇārṇavaśāyī or Garbhodakaśāyī or Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇus, nor was there Brahmā nor Śaṅkara. The Viṣṇu plenary expansion and the living entities beginning from Brahmā are separated parts and parcels. Although the spiritual existence was there with the Lord, the material existence was dormant in Him. By His will only is the material manifestation done and undone. The diversity of the Vaikuṇṭhaloka is one with the Lord, just as the diversity of soldiers is one with and the same as the king.

The Lord is so kind that in the absence of such a manifestation He feels something wanting, and thus the creation takes place.

It is the compassion of the Lord for the sleeping energy that He wants to see her awaken for enjoyment like the other wives who are awake.

Thus, no scientific advancement of material science can ever produce a living being. That is the whole mystery of the material creation. The living entities are foreign to matter, and thus they cannot be happy unless they are situated in the same spiritual life as the Lord. The mistaken living being, out of forgetfulness of this original condition of life, unnecessarily wastes time trying to become happy in the material world.

In the final stage of sky there is one quality, namely sound; in the air two qualities, sound and touch; in the electricity three qualities, namely sound, touch and form; in the water four qualities, sound, touch, form and taste; and in the last stage of physical development the result is earth, which has all five qualities—sound, touch, form, taste and smell.

It is natural that one should be able to see the Lord at least within himself. But that is not possible for those whose internal vision has been covered by external activities. The pure soul, which is symptomized by consciousness, can be easily perceived even by a common man because consciousness is spread all over the body. The yoga system as recommended in Bhagavad-gītā is to concentrate the mental activities internally and thus see the lotus feet of the Lord within oneself. But there are many so-called yogīs who have no concern with the Lord but are only concerned with consciousness, which they accept as the final realization. Such realization of consciousness is taught by Bhagavad-gītā within only a few minutes, whereas the so-called yogīs take continuous years to realize it because of their offenses at the lotus feet of the Lord. The greatest offense is to deny the existence of the Lord as separate from the individual souls or to accept the Lord and the individual soul as one and the same. The impersonalists misinterpret the theory of reflection, and thus they wrongly accept the individual consciousness as the supreme consciousness.", + "The theory of the reflection of the Supreme can be clearly understood without difficulty by any sincere common man. When there is a reflection of the sky on the water, both the sky and the stars are seen within the water, but it is understood that the sky and the stars are not to be accepted on the same level. The stars are parts of the sky, and therefore they cannot be equal to the whole. The sky is the whole, and the stars are parts. They cannot be one and the same. Transcendentalists who do not accept the supreme consciousness as separate from the individual consciousness are as offensive as the materialists who deny even the existence of the Lord.", + "Such offenders cannot actually see the lotus feet of the Lord within themselves, nor are they even able to see the devotees of the Lord. The devotees of the Lord are so kind that they roam to all places to enlighten people in God consciousness. The offenders, however, lose the chance to receive the Lord's devotees, although the offenseless common man is at once influenced by the devotees' presence. In this connection there is an interesting story of a hunter and Devarṣi Nārada. A hunter in the forest, although a great sinner, was not an intentional offender. He was at once influenced by the presence of Nārada, and he agreed to take the path of devotion, leaving aside his hearth and home. But the offenders Nalakūvara and Maṇigrīva, even though living amongst the demigods, had to undergo the punishment of becoming trees in their next lives, although by the grace of a devotee they were later delivered by the Lord. Offenders have to wait until they receive the mercy of devotees, and then they can become eligible to see the lotus feet of the Lord within themselves. But due to their offenses and their extreme materialism, they cannot see even the devotees of the Lord. Engaged in external activities, they kill the internal vision. The Lord's devotees, however, do not mind the offenses of the foolish in their many gross and subtle bodily endeavors. The Lord's devotees continue to bestow the blessings of devotion upon all such offenders without hesitation.

The earth is situated almost in the middle of the universe, and the human form of life is the via medium between the life of the demigods and that of the demons. The planetary systems above the earth are especially meant for the higher intellectuals, called demigods. They are called demigods because although their standard of life is far more advanced in culture, enjoyment, luxury, beauty, education and duration of life, they are always fully God conscious. Such demigods are always ready to render service to the Supreme Lord because they are perfectly aware of the fact that every living entity is constitutionally an eternal subordinate servitor of the Lord. They also know that it is the Lord only who can maintain all living entities with all the necessities of life. The Vedic hymns, \"eko bahūnāṁ vidadhāti kāmān,\" \"tā enam abruvan āyatanaṁ naḥ prajānīhi yasmin pratiṣṭhitā annam adāme,\" etc., confirm this truth. In Bhagavad-gītā also, the Lord is mentioned as bhūta-bhṛt, or the maintainer of all living creatures.", + "The modern theory that starvation is due to an increase in population is not accepted by the demigods or the devotees of the Lord.

If they want to eat like ordinary animals, who have no God consciousness, then they must live in starvation, poverty and want, like the jungle animals in the forest. The jungle animals are also maintained by the Lord with their respective foodstuffs, but they are not advanced in God consciousness. Similarly, human beings are provided with food grains, vegetables, fruits and milk by the grace of the Lord, but it is the duty of human beings to acknowledge the mercy of the Lord. As a matter of gratitude, they should feel obliged to the Lord for their supply of foodstuff, and they must first offer Him food in sacrifice and then partake of the remnants.", + "In Bhagavad-gītā it is confirmed (3.13) that one who takes foodstuff after a performance of sacrifice eats real food for proper maintenance of the body and soul, but one who cooks for himself and does not perform any sacrifice eats only lumps of sin in the shape of foodstuffs. Such sinful eating can never make one happy or free from scarcity. Famine is not due to an increase in population, as less intelligent economists think. When human society is grateful to the Lord for all His gifts for the maintenance of the living entities, then there is certainly no scarcity or want in society. But when men are unaware of the intrinsic value of such gifts from the Lord, surely they are in want. A person who has no God consciousness may live in opulence for the time being due to his past virtuous acts, but if one forgets his relationship with the Lord, certainly he must await the stage of starvation by the law of the powerful material nature.

When He descends on the material plane, out of His causeless mercy He accepts one of His great devotees as His father to keep pace with the rules of the material world. But since He is the Lord, He is always independent in choosing who will become His father. For example, the Lord came out of a pillar in His incarnation as Nṛsiṁhadeva, and by the Lord's causeless mercy, Ahalyā came out of a stone by the touch of the lotus feet of His incarnation as Lord Śrī Rāma.

The relationship of every living being with the Supreme Lord is certainly one of son and father and not one of equality.

Every living entity, however great he may be, even up to demigods like Brahmā, Indra, etc., is an eternally subordinate servitor of the supreme father. The mahat-tattva principle is the generating source of all the modes of material nature, and the living entities take birth in the material world in bodies supplied by the mother, material nature, in terms of their previous work.

But there is another plan behind the creation: to help the living entities realize that they are created for the transcendental sense gratification of the Lord and not for their individual sense gratification. This is the constitutional position of the living entities. The Lord is one without a second, and He expands Himself into many for His transcendental pleasure. All the expansions—the Viṣṇu-tattvas, the jīva-tattvas and the śakti-tattvas (the Personalities of Godhead, the living entities and the different potential energies)—are different offshoots from the same one Supreme Lord. The jīva-tattvas are separated expansions of the Viṣṇu-tattvas, and although there are potential differences between them, they are all meant for the transcendental sense gratification of the Supreme Lord. Some of the jīvas, however, wanted to lord it over material nature in imitation of the lordship of the Personality of Godhead. Regarding when and why such propensities overcame the pure living entities, it can only be explained that the jīva-tattvas have infinitesimal independence and that due to misuse of this independence some of the living entities have become implicated in the conditions of cosmic creation and are therefore called nitya-bandhanas, or eternally conditioned souls.", + "The expansions of Vedic wisdom also give the nitya-bandhanas, the conditioned living entities, a chance to improve, and those who take advantage of such transcendental knowledge gradually regain their lost consciousness of rendering transcendental loving service to the Lord. The demigods are amongst the conditioned souls who have developed this pure consciousness of service to the Lord, but at the same time they continue to desire to lord it over the material energy. Such mixed consciousness puts a conditioned soul in the position of managing the affairs of this creation. The demigods are entrusted leaders of the conditioned souls. As some of the old prisoners in government jails are entrusted with some responsible work of prison management, so the demigods are improved conditioned souls acting as representatives of the Lord in the material creation. Such demigods are devotees of the Lord in the material world and are completely free from all material desire to lord it over the material energy. They have become pure devotees and have no desire but to serve the Lord. Any living entity who desires a position in the material world may desire so in the service of the Lord and may seek power and intelligence from the Lord, as exemplified by the demigods in this particular verse. One cannot do anything unless he is enlightened and empowered by the Lord. The Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15), mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca.

In our own bodies we do not show any actual difference in our treatment towards the hands or legs. Each and every part of the body is important, although the mouth is the most important of the bodily parts. If other parts are cut off from the body, a man can continue his life, but if the mouth is cut off, one cannot live. Therefore, this most important part of the body of the Lord is called the sitting place of the brāhmaṇas, who are inclined to the Vedic wisdom. One who is not inclined to the Vedic wisdom but to mundane affairs cannot be called a brāhmaṇa, even if he is born of a brāhmaṇa family or father. To have a brāhmaṇa father does not qualify one as a brāhmaṇa. The main qualification of a brāhmaṇa is to be inclined to the Vedic wisdom.

In Bhagavad-gītā the qualifications of the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras are specifically mentioned, and it is understood that all such qualifications are needed before one can be designated as belonging to a particular group (Bg. 18.41).", + "Lord Viṣṇu is always mentioned as the puruṣa in all Vedic scriptures. Sometimes the living entities are also mentioned as puruṣas, although they are essentially puruṣa-śakti (parā-śakti or parā-prakṛti), the superior energy of the puruṣa. Illusioned by the external potency of the puruṣa (the Lord), the living entities falsely think of themselves as the puruṣa although they actually have no qualifications. The Lord has the power to protect. Of the three deities Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Maheśvara, the first has the power to create, the second has the power to protect, and the third has the power to destroy. The word puruṣa is significant in this verse because the kṣatriyas are expected to represent the puruṣa Lord in giving protection to the prajās, or all those who are born in the land and water. Protection is therefore meant for both man and the animals. In modern society the prajās are not protected from the hands of thieves and miscreants. The modern democratic state, which has no kṣatriyas, is a government of the vaiśyas and śūdras, and not of brāhmaṇas and kṣatriyas as formerly. Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and his grandson Mahārāja Parīkṣit were typical kṣatriya kings, for they gave protection to all men and animals. When the personification of Kali attempted to kill a cow, Mahārāja Parīkṣit at once prepared himself to kill the miscreant, and the personification of Kali was banished from his kingdom. That is the sign of puruṣa, or the representative of Lord Viṣṇu. According to Vedic civilization, a qualified kṣatriya monarch is given the respect of the Lord because he represents the Lord by giving protection to the prajās. Modern elected presidents cannot even give protection from theft cases, and therefore one has to take protection from an insurance company. The problems of modern human society are due to the lack of qualified brāhmaṇas and kṣatriyas and the over-influence of the vaiśyas and śūdras by so-called general franchise." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/06/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/06/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e4410762 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/06/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,95 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 3.6.32", + "devanagari": "विशो ऽवर्तन्त तस्योर्वोर्लोकवृत्तिकरीर्विभोः\nवैश्यस्तदुद्भवो वार्तां नृणां यः समवर्तयत्", + "transliteration": "viśo 'vartanta tasyorvor\nloka-vṛttikarīr vibhoḥ\nvaiśyas tad-udbhavo vārtāṁ\nnṛṇāṁ yaḥ samavartayat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "viśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "means of living by production and distribution" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avartanta", + "meanings": [ + "generated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "His (the gigantic form's)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ūrvoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the thighs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka-vṛttikarīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "means of livelihood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiśyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mercantile community" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "their" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udbhavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "orientation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vārtām", + "meanings": [ + "means of living" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of all men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samavartayat", + "meanings": [ + "executed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The means of livelihood of all persons, namely production of grains and their distribution to the prajās, was generated from the thighs of the Lord's gigantic form.

One should not become unchaste by stopping the activities of pure consciousness. If the activities of pure consciousness are stopped, certainly the conscious living force will be otherwise engaged because unless engaged the consciousness has no standing. Consciousness cannot be silent, even for a moment. When the body does not act, the consciousness acts in the form of dreams. Unconsciousness is artificial; by induced extraneous help, it remains for a limited period, but when the intoxication of the drug is finished or when one is awake, the consciousness again acts earnestly.", + "Maitreya's statement is that in order to avoid unchaste conscious activities, he was trying to describe the unlimited glories of the Lord, although he had no capacity to describe them perfectly. This glorification of the Lord is not a product of research, but the result of hearing submissively from the authority of the spiritual master. It is also not possible to repeat all that one has heard from his spiritual master, but one can narrate as far as possible by one's honest endeavor. It does not matter whether the Lord's glories are fully explained or not. One must attempt to engage one's bodily, mental and verbal activities in the transcendental glorification of the Lord, otherwise such activities will remain unchaste and impure. The existence of the conditioned soul can be purified only by the method of engaging mind and speech in the service of the Lord. The tridaṇḍi-sannyāsī of the Vaiṣṇava school accepts three rods, representing the vow to engage in the service of the Lord with body, mind and speech, whereas the ekadaṇḍi-sannyāsī takes the vow to become one with the Supreme. Since the Lord is the Absolute, there is no distinction between Him and His glories. The glories of the Lord as chanted by the Vaiṣṇava-sannyāsī are as substantial as the Lord Himself, and thus while glorifying the Lord the devotee becomes one with Him in transcendental interest, although he remains eternally a transcendental servitor. This simultaneously one and different position of the devotee makes him eternally purified, and thus his life becomes a complete success." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/06/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/06/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8a39bb40 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/06/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 3.6.37", + "devanagari": "एकान्तलाभं वचसो नु पुंसां सुश्लोकमौलेर्गुणवादम् आहुः\nश्रुतेश्च विद्वद्भिर् उपाकृतायां कथासुधायाम् उपसम्प्रयोगम्", + "transliteration": "ekānta-lābhaṁ vacaso nu puṁsāṁ\nsuśloka-mauler guṇa-vādam āhuḥ\nśruteś ca vidvadbhir upākṛtāyāṁ\nkathā-sudhāyām upasamprayogam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ekānta", + "meanings": [ + "the one which has no comparison" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lābham", + "meanings": [ + "gain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vacasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by discussions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nu puṁsām", + "meanings": [ + "after the Supreme Person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suśloka", + "meanings": [ + "pious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mauleḥ", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-vādam", + "meanings": [ + "glorification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "it is so said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śruteḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the ear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidvadbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the learned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upākṛtāyām", + "meanings": [ + "being so edited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kathā-sudhāyām", + "meanings": [ + "in the nectar of such a transcendental message" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upasamprayogam", + "meanings": [ + "serves the real purpose, being nearer to." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The highest perfectional gain of humanity is to engage in discussions of the activities and glories of the pious actor.

The Lord is, therefore, the master of the energies, whereas the living entities are subjugated by them. By asking various questions about transcendental activities, Vidura is clearing the misconception that when the Lord either descends on the earth in His incarnation or appears Himself with all His potencies, He too is subjected to the influence of māyā, just like an ordinary living entity. This is generally the calculation of less intelligent philosophers who consider the position of the Lord and that of the living entities to be on the same level. Vidura is hearing the great sage Maitreya refute these arguments. The Lord is described in this verse as cinmātra, or completely spiritual. The Personality of Godhead has unlimited potencies to create and manifest many wonderful things, both temporary and permanent. Because this material world is the creation of His external energy, it thus appears to be temporary; it is manifested at certain intervals, maintained for some time, and again dissolved and conserved in His own energy. As described in Bhagavad-gītā, bhūtvā bhūtvā pralīyate (Bg. 8.19). But the creation of His internal potency, the spiritual world, is not a temporary manifestation like the material world, but is eternal and full of transcendental knowledge, opulence, energy, strength, beauties and glories. Such manifestations of the Lord's potencies are eternal and are therefore called nirguṇa, or free from all tinges of the modes of material nature, even up to the mode of material goodness. The spiritual world is transcendental even to material goodness and thus is unchangeable. Since the Supreme Lord of such eternal and unchangeable qualities is never subjugated by anything like material influence, how can His activities and form be conceived to be under the influence of illusory māyā, as is the case with the living entities?", + "A juggler or magician displays many wonders with his acts and arts. He can become a cow by his magical tactics, and yet he is not that cow; but at the same time, the cow displayed by the magician is not different from him. Similarly, the material potency is not different from the Lord because it is an emanation from Him, but at the same time, that potential manifestation is not the Supreme Lord. The Lord's transcendental knowledge and potency always remain the same; they do not change, even when displayed in the material world. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord descends on the earth by His own internal potency, and therefore there is no question of His becoming materially contaminated, changed or otherwise affected by the modes of material nature. The Lord is saguṇa by His own internal potency, but at the same time He is nirguṇa, since He is not in touch with the material energy. The restrictions of the prison house are applicable to prisoners who are condemned by the king's law, but the king is never affected by such implications, although he may visit the prison house out of his good will. In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa the six opulences of the Lord are stated to be nondifferent from Him. The opulences of transcendental knowledge, strength, opulence, potency, beauty and renunciation are all identical with the Personality of Godhead. When He personally displays such opulences in the material world, they have no connection with the modes of material nature. The very word cinmātratvam is the guarantee that the Lord's activities are always transcendental, even when displayed in the material world. His activities are as good as the Supreme Personality Himself, otherwise liberated devotees like Śukadeva Gosvāmī would not have been attracted by them. Vidura inquired how the Lord's activities can be in the modes of material nature, as is sometimes miscalculated by persons with a poor fund of knowledge. The inebriety of the material qualities is due to the difference between the material body and the spirit soul. The conditioned soul's activities are displayed through the medium of the modes of material nature and are therefore perverted in appearance. However, the Lord's body and the Lord Himself are one and the same, and when the Lord's activities are displayed, they are certainly nondifferent from the Lord in all respects. The conclusion is that persons who consider the Lord's activities material are certainly mistaken." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/07/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/07/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cffe1b80 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/07/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 3.7.3", + "devanagari": "क्रीडायाम् उद्यमो ऽर्भस्य कामश्चिक्रीडिषान्यतः\nस्वतस्तृप्तस्य च कथं निवृत्तस्य सदान्यतः", + "transliteration": "krīḍāyām udyamo 'rbhasya\nkāmaś cikrīḍiṣānyataḥ\nsvatas-tṛptasya ca kathaṁ\nnivṛttasya sadānyataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "krīḍāyām", + "meanings": [ + "in the matter of playing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udyamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "enthusiasm" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arbhasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the boys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cikrīḍiṣā", + "meanings": [ + "willingness to play" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with other boys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svataḥ-tṛptasya", + "meanings": [ + "for one who is self-satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "what for" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nivṛttasya", + "meanings": [ + "one who is detached" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadā", + "meanings": [ + "for all time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "otherwise." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Boys are enthusiastic to play with other boys or with various diversions because they are encouraged by desire.

But factually there is no doubt that the illusory external energy is also part and parcel of the Supreme Lord. When Vyāsadeva realized the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he saw the Lord along with His external potency, which covers the pure knowledge of the individual living entities. Why the external energy acts in this way may be considered as follows, as analyzed by great commentators like Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur and Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī. Although the material, illusory energy is distinct from the spiritual energy, it is one of the many energies of the Lord, and thus the material modes of nature (the mode of goodness, etc.) are surely qualities of the Lord. The energy and the energetic Personality of Godhead are not different, and although such energy is one with the Lord, He is never overpowered by it. Although the living entities are also parts and parcels of the Lord, they are overcome by the material energy. The inconceivable yogam aiśvaram of the Lord, as mentioned in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 9.5), is misunderstood by the froggish philosophers. In order to support a theory that Nārāyaṇa (the Lord Himself) becomes a daridra-nārāyaṇa, a poor man, they propose that the material energy overcomes the Supreme Lord. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī and Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur, however, offer a very nice example in explanation. They say that although the sun is all light, the clouds, darkness and snowfall are all part and parcel of the sun. Without the sun there is no possibility of the sky's being overcast with clouds or darkness, nor can there be snowfall on the earth. Although life is sustained by the sun, life is also disturbed by darkness and snowfall produced by the sun. But it is also a fact that the sun itself is never overcome by darkness, clouds or snowfall; the sun is far, far away from such disturbances. Only those who have a poor fund of knowledge say that the sun is covered by a cloud or by darkness. Similarly, the Supreme Brahman or the Param Brahman, the Personality of Godhead, is always unaffected by the influence of the material energy, although it is one of His energies (parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate).", + "There is no reason to assert that the Supreme Brahman is overpowered by the illusory energy. The clouds, darkness and snowfall can cover only a very insignificant portion of the sun's rays. Similarly, the modes of material nature may react upon the ray-like living entities. It is the misfortune of the living entity, certainly not without reason, that the influence of the material energy acts on his pure consciousness and eternal bliss. This covering up of pure consciousness and eternal bliss is due to avidyā-karmā-saṁjñā, the energy which acts on the infinitesimal living entities who misuse their minute independence. According to Viṣṇu Purāṇa, Bhagavad-gītā and all other Vedic literatures, the living entities are generated from the taṭasthā energy of the Lord, and thus they are always the energy of the Lord and are not the energetic. The living entities are like the sun's rays. Although, as explained above, there is no qualitative difference between the sun and its rays, the sun's rays are sometimes overpowered by another energy of the sun, namely by clouds or by snowfall. Similarly, although the living entities are qualitatively one with the superior energy of the Lord, they have the tendency to be overpowered by the inferior material energy. In the Vedic hymns it is said that the living entities are like the sparks of a fire. The sparks of fire also are fire, but the burning potency of the sparks is different from that of the original fire. When the sparks fly out of touch with the original fire, they come under the influence of a non-fiery atmosphere; thus they maintain the potency to be again one with the fire as sparks, but not as the original fire. The sparks can everlastingly remain within the original fire as its parts and parcels, but the moment the sparks become separated from the original fire, their misfortunes and miseries begin. The clear conclusion is that the Supreme Lord, who is the original fire, is never overpowered, but the infinitesimal sparks of the fire can become overpowered by the illusory effect of māyā. It is a most ludicrous argument to say that the Supreme Lord is overpowered by His own material energy. The Lord is the master of the material energy, but the living entities are in the conditioned state, controlled by the material energy. That is the version of Bhagavad-gītā.

If a person's head is severed he loses his power to see. Therefore if a man sees that his head has been cut off, it means that he thinks like that in hallucination. Similarly a living entity is eternally subordinate to the Supreme Lord, and he has this knowledge with him, but, artificially, he thinks that he is God himself and that although he is God he has lost his knowledge due to māyā. This conception has no meaning, just as there is no meaning to seeing one's head being cut off. This is the process by which knowledge is covered. And because this artificial rebellious condition of the living entity gives him all troubles, it is to be understood that he should take to his normal life as a devotee of the Lord and be relieved from the misconception of being God. The so-called liberation of thinking oneself God is that last reaction of avidyā by which the living entity is entrapped. The conclusion is that a living entity deprived of eternal transcendental service to the Lord becomes illusioned in many ways. Even in his conditional life he is the eternal servant of the Lord. His servitude under the spell of illusory māyā is also a manifestation of his eternal condition of service. Because he has rebelled against the service of the Lord, he is therefore put in the service of the māyā. He is still serving, but in a perverted manner. When he wants to get out of service under material bondage, he next desires to become one with the Lord. This is another illusion.

The word pratīyate, which means apparently and not actually (like the experience of having one's head cut off in a dream), is significant here. The reflection of the moon on the water is the separated rays of the moon and not the actual moon. The separated parts and parcels of the Lord entangled in the water of material existence have the quivering quality, whereas the Lord is like the actual moon in the sky, which is not at all in touch with water. The light of the sun and moon reflected on matter makes the matter bright and praiseworthy. The living symptoms are compared to the light of the sun and the moon illuminating material manifestations like trees and mountains. The reflection of the sun or moon is accepted as the real sun or moon by less intelligent men, and the pure monistic philosophy develops from these ideas. In fact, the light of the sun and the moon are actually different from the sun and moon themselves, although they are always connected. The light of the moon spread throughout the sky appears to be impersonal, but the moon planet, as it is, is personal, and the living entities on the moon planet are also personal. In the rays of the moon, different material entities appear to be comparatively more or less important. The light of the moon on the Taj Mahal appears to be more beautiful than the same light in the wilderness. Although the light of the moon is the same everywhere, due to being differently appreciated, it appears to be different. Similarly, the light of the Lord is equally distributed everywhere, but due to being differently received, it appears to be different. One should not, therefore, accept the reflection of the moon on the water as actual and misunderstand the whole situation through monistic philosophy. The quivering quality of the moon is also variable. When the water is standing still, there is no quivering.

Therefore, these senses are to be detached from all such material activities. According to the impersonalists the senses are stopped from work by merging the soul in the Supersoul Brahman. The devotees, however, do not stop the material senses from acting, but they engage their transcendental senses in the service of the Transcendence, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In either case, the activities of the senses in the material field are to be stopped by cultivation of knowledge, and, if possible, they can be engaged in the service of the Lord. The senses are transcendental in nature, but their activities become polluted when contaminated by matter. We have to treat the senses to cure them of the material disease, not stop them from acting, as suggested by the impersonalist. In Bhagavad-gītā (2.59) it is said that one ceases all material activities only when satisfied by contact with a better engagement. Consciousness is active by nature and cannot be stopped from working. Artificially stopping a mischievous child is not the real remedy. The child must be given some better engagement so that he will automatically stop causing mischief. In the same way, the mischievous activities of the senses can only be stopped by better engagement in relation with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. When the eyes are engaged in seeing the beautiful form of the Lord, the tongue engaged in tasting prasādam or remnants of foodstuff offered to the Lord, the ears engaged in hearing His glories, the hands engaged in cleaning the temple of the Lord, the legs engaged in visiting His temples—or when all the senses are engaged in transcendental variegatedness—then only can the transcendental senses become satiated and eternally free from material engagement. The Lord, as the Supersoul residing in everyone's heart and as the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the transcendental world far beyond the material creation, is the seer of all our activities.

Of these two most popular methods, the path of devotional service is recommended here as the best because one on the path of devotional service does not have to wait for the attainment of the fruitive results of pious activities or for the results of knowledge. The two stages of executing devotional service are, first, the stage of practicing devotional service with our present senses under the regulations of the recognized scriptures and, second, attaining sincere attachment for serving the particles of the dust of the lotus feet of the Lord. The first stage is called sādhana-bhakti, or devotional service for the neophyte, which is rendered under the direction of a pure devotee, and the second stage is called rāga-bhakti, in which the mature devotee automatically takes to the various services of the Lord out of sincere attachment. The great sage Maitreya now gives the final answer to all the questions of Vidura: devotional service to the Lord is the ultimate means to mitigate all the miserable conditions of material existence. The path of knowledge or that of mystic gymnastics may be adopted as a means for the purpose, but unless mixed with bhakti, or devotional service, they are unable to award the desired result.

Parāśara was able to demolish all the demons in the sacrifice, but he considered: \"Demons are so made that they devour living creatures, men and animals, but why on that account should I withdraw my brahminical qualification of forgiveness?\" As the great speaker of the Purāṇas, Parāśara first of all spoke on the Śrīmad-Bhāgavata Purāṇa because it is the foremost of all the Purāṇas.

This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 4.11): ye yathā māṁ prapadyante tāṁs tathaiva bhajāmy aham. We should note, however, that the Lord is never the order supplier of the devotee. Here in this verse it is particularly mentioned: tvaṁ bhakti-yoga-paribhāvita. This indicates the efficiency achieved through execution of matured devotional service, or premā, love of Godhead. This state of premā is achieved by the gradual process of development from faith to love. On faith one associates with bona fide devotees, and by such association one can become engaged in the bona fide devotional service, which includes proper initiation and the execution of the primary devotional duties prescribed in the revealed scriptures. This is clearly indicated herein by the word śrutekṣita. The śrutekṣita path is to hear from bona fide devotees who are conversant with Vedic wisdom, free from mundane sentiment. By this bona fide hearing process, the neophyte devotee becomes cleansed of all material rubbish, and thus he becomes attached to one of the many transcendental forms of the Lord, as described in the Vedas.", + "This attachment of the devotee to a particular form of the Lord is due to natural inclination. Each and every living entity is originally attached to a particular type of transcendental service because he is eternally the servitor of the Lord. Lord Caitanya says that the living entity is eternally a servitor of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Therefore, every living entity has a particular type of service relationship with the Lord, eternally. This particular attachment is invoked by practice of regulative devotional service to the Lord, and thus the devotee becomes attached to the eternal form of the Lord, exactly like one who is already eternally attached. This attachment for a particular form of the Lord is called svarūpa-siddhi. The Lord sits on the lotus heart of the devotee in the eternal form the pure devotee desires, and thus the Lord does not part from the devotee, as confirmed in the previous verse. The Lord, however, does not disclose Himself to a casual or inauthentic worshiper to be exploited. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 7.25): nāhaṁ prakāśaḥ sarvasya yoga-māyā-samāvṛtaḥ. Rather, by yoga-māyā, the Lord remains concealed to the non-devotees or casual devotees who are serving their sense gratification. The Lord is never visible to the pseudo-devotees who worship the demigods in charge of universal affairs.

In Bhagavad-gītā, (Bg. 9.27), the Lord demands that whatever one may do in one's daily activities, such as worship, sacrifice, and offer charity, all the results should be offered to Him only. This offering of the result of pious acts unto the Supreme Lord is a sign of devotional service to the Lord and is of permanent value, whereas enjoying the same results for oneself is only temporary.

The Lord is omnipotent; simply by His will He can perform anything and everything. When the Lord appeared as Lord Kṛṣṇa, He played the part of the son of Yaśodā and Nanda, and He lifted the Govardhana Hill, although lifting a hill is not His concern. He can lift millions of Govardhana Hills by His simple desire; He does not need to lift it with His hand. But He imitates the ordinary living entity by this lifting, and at the same time He exhibits His supernatural power. Thus His name is chanted as the lifter of Govardhana Hill, or Śrī Govardhana-dhārī. Therefore, His acts in His incarnations and His partiality to the devotees are all imitations only, just like the stage makeup of an expert dramatical player. His acts in that capacity, however, are all omnipotent, and the remembrance of such activities of the incarnations of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is as powerful as the Lord Himself.

This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (9.10): mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sa-carācaram. \"Only under the superintendence of the Supreme Lord does material nature appear to be the cause of all creation, maintenance and dissolution.\" The Lord expands Himself into three, Viṣṇu, Brahmā and Śiva, for maintenance, creation and destruction respectively. Of the three principal agents controlling the three modes of material nature, Viṣṇu is the Almighty; even though He is within material nature for the purpose of maintenance, He is not controlled by the laws of material nature. The other two, Brahmā and Śiva, although almost as greatly powerful as Viṣṇu, are within the control of the material energy of the Supreme Lord. The conception of many gods controlling the many departments of material nature is ill conceived by the foolish pantheist. God is one without a second, and He is the primal cause of all causes. As there are many departmental heads of governmental affairs, so there are many heads of management of the universal affairs.", + "Due to a poor fund of knowledge, the impersonalist does not believe in the personal management of things as they are. But in this verse it is clearly explained that everything is personal and nothing is impersonal. We have already discussed this point in the Introduction, and it is confirmed here in this verse. The tree of the material manifestation is described in the Fifteenth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā as an aśvattha tree whose root is upward. We have actual experience of such a tree when we see the shadow of a tree on the bank of a reservoir of water. The reflection of the tree on the water appears to hang down from its upward roots. The tree of creation which is described here is only a shadow of the reality which is Parabrahman, Viṣṇu. In the internal potential manifestation of the Vaikuṇṭhalokas, the actual tree exists, and the tree reflected in the material nature is only the shadow of this actual tree. The impersonalists' theory that Brahman is void of all variegatedness is false because the shadow tree described in Bhagavad-gītā cannot exist without being the reflection of a real tree. The real tree is situated in the eternal existence of spiritual nature, full of transcendental varieties, and Lord Viṣṇu is the root of that tree also. The root is the same—the Lord—both for the real tree and the false, but the false tree is only the perverted reflection of the real tree.

All these thoughts are basically material. To think either positively or negatively is still thinking materially. Knowledge accepted from the superior source of the Vedas is standard. Here in these verses of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, we find that arcanā is recommended. Before Brahmā took up the task of creation, he found the Lord sleeping on the serpent bed in the waves of the water of devastation. Therefore, sleeping exists in the internal potency of the Lord, and this is not denied by pure devotees of the Lord like Brahmā and his disciplic succession. It is clearly said here that the Lord slept very happily within the violent waves of the water, manifesting thereby that He is able to do anything and everything by His transcendental will and not be hampered by any circumstances. The Māyāvādī cannot think beyond this material experience, and thus he denies the Lord's ability to sleep within the water. His mistake is that he compares the Lord to himself—and that comparison is also a material thought.

That service attitude is the svarūpa or real form of the living entity. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, also confirms this statement by declaring that the real spiritual form of the living entity is eternal servitorship to the Supreme Lord. The Māyāvādī school shudders at the thought of a service attitude in the living entity, not knowing that in the transcendental world the service of the Lord is based on transcendental love. Transcendental loving service is never to be compared to the forced service of the material world. In the material world, even if one is under the conception that he is no one's servant, he is still the servant of his senses, under the dictation of the material modes. Factually no one is master here in the material world, and therefore the servants of the senses have a very bad experience of servitude. They shudder at the thought of service because they have no knowledge of the transcendental position. In transcendental loving service, the servitor is as free as the Lord. The Lord is svarāṭ, or fully independent, and the servant is also fully independent or svarāṭ in the spiritual atmosphere because there is no forced service. There the transcendental loving service is due to spontaneous love. A reflected glimpse of such service is experienced in the service of the mother unto the son, the friend's service unto the friend, or the wife's service unto the husband. These reflections of service by friends, parents or wives are not forced, but are due only to love. Here in this material world, however, the loving service is only a reflection. The real service, or service in svarūpa, is present in the transcendental world, in association with the Lord. The very same service in transcendental love can be practiced here in devotion.", + "This verse is also applicable to the jñānī school. The enlightened jñānī, when free from all material contaminations, namely the gross and subtle bodies together with the senses of the material modes of nature, is placed in the Supreme and is thus liberated from material bondage. The jñānīs and the devotees are actually in agreement up to the point of liberation from material contamination. But whereas the jñānīs remain pacified on the platform of simple understanding, the devotees develop further spiritual advancement in loving service. The devotees develop a spiritual individuality in their spontaneous service attitude, which is enhanced on and on, up to the point of mādhurya-rasa, or transcendental loving service reciprocated between the lover and the beloved." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/34.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/34.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cf4b7dbc --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/34.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 34, + "reference": "SB 3.9.34", + "devanagari": "नानाकर्मवितानेन प्रजा बह्वीः सिसृक्षतः\nनात्मावसीदत्य् अस्मिंस्ते वर्षीयान्मदनुग्रहः", + "transliteration": "nānā-karma-vitānena\nprajā bahvīḥ sisṛkṣataḥ\nnātmāvasīdaty asmiṁs te\nvarṣīyān mad-anugrahaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "nānā-karma", + "meanings": [ + "varieties of service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vitānena", + "meanings": [ + "by expansion of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "population" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahvīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "innumerable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sisṛkṣataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desiring to increase" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avasīdati", + "meanings": [ + "will be bereaved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asmin", + "meanings": [ + "in the matter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "of you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṣīyān", + "meanings": [ + "always increasing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat", + "meanings": [ + "My" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anugrahaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "causeless mercy." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Since you have desired to increase the population innumerably and expand your varieties of service, you shall never be deprived in this matter because My causeless mercy upon you will always increase for all time.", + "purport": [ + "A pure devotee of the Lord, being cognizant of the facts of the particular time, object and circumstances, always desires to expand the number of devotees of the Lord in various ways.

When a person does not know that the Lord only is the dearmost object, then he is in the conditioned state of life, and when one knows perfectly well that the Lord only is the dearmost object, he is considered to be liberated. There are degrees of knowing one's relationship with the Lord, depending on the degree of realization as to why the Supreme Lord is the dearmost object of every living being. The real reason is clearly stated in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 15.7). Mamaivāṁśo jīva-loke jīva-bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥ: the living entities are eternally parts and parcels of the Supreme Lord. The living entity is called the ātmā, and the Lord is called the Paramātmā. The living entity is called Brahman, and the Lord is called the Parabrahman, or the Parameśvara. Īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ. The conditioned souls who do not have self-realization accept the material body as the dearmost. The idea of the dearmost is then spread all over the body, both concentrated and extended. The attachment for one's own body and its extensions like children and relatives is actually developed on the basis of the real living entity. As soon as the real living entity is out of the body, even the body of the most dear son is no longer attractive. Therefore the living spark or eternal part of the Supreme is the real basis of affection, and not the body. Because the living entities are also parts of the whole living entity, therefore that supreme living entity is the factual basis of affection for all. One who has forgotten the basic principle of his love for everything has only flickering love because he is in māyā. The more one is affected by the principle of māyā, the more he is detached from the basic principle of love. One cannot factually love anything unless he is fully developed in the loving service of the Lord.", + "In the present verse, stress is given to focusing love upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The word kuryāt is significant here. This means \"one must have it.\" It is just to stress that we must have more and more attachment to the principle of love. The influence of māyā is experienced by the part and parcel spiritual entity, but it cannot influence the Supersoul or the Paramātmā. The Māyāvādī philosophers, accepting the influence of māyā on the living entity, want to become one with the Paramātmā. But because they have no actual love for Paramātmā, they remain ever entrapped by the influence of māyā and are unable to approach the vicinity of Paramātmā. This inability is due to their lack of affection for the Paramātmā. A rich miser does not know how to utilize his wealth, and therefore, in spite of his being very rich, his miserly behavior keeps him everlastingly a poor man. On the other hand, a person who knows how to utilize wealth can quickly become a rich man, even with a small credit balance.", + "The eyes and the sun are very intimately related because without sunlight the eyes are unable to see. But the other parts of the body, being attached to the sun as a source of warmth, take more advantage of the sun than do the eyes. Without possessing affection for the sun, the eyes cannot bear the rays of the sun; or, in other words, such eyes have no capacity to understand the utility of the sun's rays. Similarly, the empiric philosophers, despite their theoretical knowledge of Brahman, cannot utilize the mercy of the Supreme Brahman only for want of affection. So many impersonal philosophers remain everlastingly under the influence of māyā because, although they indulge in theoretical knowledge of Brahman, they neither develop affection for Brahman nor do they have any scope for development of affection because of their defective method. A devotee of the sun-god, even though devoid of eyesight, can see the sun-god as he is even from this planet, whereas one who is not a devotee of the sun cannot even bear the glaring sunlight. Similarly, by devotional service, even though one is not on the level of a jñānī, he can see the Personality of Godhead within himself due to his development of pure love. In all circumstances one should try to develop love of Godhead, and that will solve all contending problems." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/43.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/43.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3e58eede --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/43.json @@ -0,0 +1,91 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 43, + "reference": "SB 3.9.43", + "devanagari": "सर्ववेदमयेनेदम् आत्मना\"त्मा\"त्मयोनिना\nप्रजाः सृज यथापूर्वं याश्च मय्य् अनुशेरते", + "transliteration": "sarva-veda-mayenedam\nātmanā\"tmā\"tma-yoninā\nprajāḥ sṛja yathā-pūrvaṁ\nyāś ca mayy anuśerate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sarva", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda-mayena", + "meanings": [ + "under complete Vedic wisdom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanā", + "meanings": [ + "by the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-yoninā", + "meanings": [ + "directly born of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sṛja", + "meanings": [ + "generate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā-pūrvam", + "meanings": [ + "as it was hereinbefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mayi", + "meanings": [ + "in Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśerate", + "meanings": [ + "lie." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By following My instructions you can now generate the living entities as before, by dint of your complete Vedic wisdom and the body that you have directly received from Me, the supreme cause of everything.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/44.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/44.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ba355315 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/09/verses/44.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 44, + "reference": "SB 3.9.44", + "devanagari": "मैत्रेय उवाच\nतस्मा एवं जगत्स्रष्ट्रे प्रधानपुरुषेश्वरः\nव्यज्येदं स्वेन रूपेण कंजनाभस्तिरोदधे", + "transliteration": "maitreya uvāca\ntasmā evaṁ jagat-sraṣṭre\npradhāna-puruṣeśvaraḥ\nvyajyedaṁ svena rūpeṇa\nkañja-nābhas tirodadhe", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "maitreyaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "the sage Maitreya said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmai", + "meanings": [ + "unto him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagat-sraṣṭre", + "meanings": [ + "unto the creator of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pradhāna-puruṣa-īśvaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the primeval Lord, the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyajya idam", + "meanings": [ + "after instructing this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svena", + "meanings": [ + "in His person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rūpeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by the form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kañja-nābhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead Nārāyaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tirodadhe", + "meanings": [ + "disappeared." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The sage Maitreya said: After instructing Brahmā, the creator of the universe, to expand, the primeval Lord, the Personality of Godhead in His personal form as Nārāyaṇa, disappeared.", + "purport": [ + "Before his activity in creating the universe, Brahmā saw the Lord.

For example, in Hebrew literature time is accepted, in the same spirit, as a representation of God. It is stated therein: \"God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets....\" Metaphysically, time is distinguished as absolute and real. Absolute time is continuous and is unaffected by the speed or slowness of material things. Time is astronomically and mathematically calculated in relation to the speed, change and life of a particular object. Factually, however, time has nothing to do with the relativities of things, but rather everything is shaped and calculated in terms of the facility offered by time. Time is the basic measurement of the activity of our senses, by which we calculate past, present and future; but in factual calculation, time has no beginning and no end. Paṇḍit Cāṇakya says that even a slight fraction of time cannot be purchased with millions of dollars, and therefore even a moment of time lost without profit must be calculated as the greatest loss in life. Time is not subject to any form of psychology, nor are the moments objective realities in themselves, but they are dependent on particular experiences.", + "Therefore, Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī concludes that the time factor is intermixed with the activities—actions and reactions—of the external energy of the Lord. The external energy or material nature works under the superintendence of the time factor as the Lord Himself, and that is why material nature appears to have produced so many wonderful things in the cosmic manifestation.

The question may be raised why the Lord, who is all-merciful, helps one to remember and another to forget. Actually, His mercy is not exhibited in partiality towards one and enmity towards another. The living entity, as part and parcel of the Lord, is partially independent because he partially possesses all the qualities of the Lord. Anyone who has some independence may sometimes misuse it due to ignorance, When the living entity prefers to misuse his independence and glide down towards nescience, the all-merciful Lord first of all tries to protect him from the trap, but when the living entity persists on gliding down to hell, the Lord helps him to forget his real position. The Lord helps the falling living entity to glide down to the lowest point, just to give him the chance to see if he is happy by misusing his independence.", + "Almost all the conditioned souls who are rotting in the material world are misusing their independence, and therefore five kinds of nescience are imposed upon them.

In Bhagavad-gītā the principle of Rudra is described (Bg. 3.37). Krodha (anger) is the product of kāma (lust), which is the result of the mode of passion. When lust and hankering are unsatisfied, the element of krodha appears, which is the formidable enemy of the conditioned soul. This most sinful and inimical passion is represented as ahaṅkāra, or the false egocentric attitude of thinking oneself to be all in all. Such an egocentric attitude on the part of the conditioned soul, who is completely under the control of material nature, is described in Bhagavad-gītā as foolish. The egocentric attitude is a manifestation of the Rudra principle in the heart, wherein krodha (anger) is generated. This anger develops in the heart and is further manifested through various senses, like the eyes, hands and legs. When a man is angry he expresses such anger with red-hot eyes and sometimes makes a display of clenching his fists or kicking his legs. This exhibition of the Rudra principle is the proof of Rudra's presence in such places. When a man is angry he breathes very rapidly, and thus Rudra is represented in the air of life or in the activities of breathing. When the sky is overcast with dense clouds and roars in anger, and when the wind blows very fiercely, the Rudra principle is manifested, and so also when the sea water is infuriated by the wind it appears in a gloomy feature of Rudra which is very fearful to the common man. When fire is ablaze we can also experience the presence of Rudra, and when there is an inundation over the earth we can understand that this is also the representation of Rudra.", + "There are many earthly creatures who constantly represent the Rudra element. The snake, tiger and lion are always representations of Rudra. Sometimes because of the extreme heat of the sun there are cases of heat stroke, and due to the extreme coldness created by the moon there are cases of collapse. There are many sages empowered with the influence of austerity and many yogīs, philosophers and renouncers who sometimes exhibit their acquired power under the influence of the Rudra principles of anger and passion. The great yogī Durvāsā, under the influence of this Rudra principle, picked a quarrel with Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, and a brāhmaṇa boy exhibited the Rudra principle by cursing the great King Mahārāja Parīkṣit. When the Rudra principle is exhibited by persons who are not engaged in the devotional service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the angry person falls down from the peak of his improved position. This is confirmed as follows:", + "ye 'nye 'ravindākṣa vimuktamāninas

When it is recommended that one should be desireless, it is understood that one should not desire things which are destructive to spiritual values. A devotee of the Lord always has the Lord in his mind, and thus he does not need to be desireless because all his desires are in relationship with the service of the Lord.

A devotee is therefore not astonished to see the wonderful boar because he knows that the Lord is able to act far more wonderfully by His potencies, which are inconceivable to the brain of even the most erudite scientist." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/13/verses/44.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/13/verses/44.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a6333b7c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/13/verses/44.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 44, + "reference": "SB 3.13.44", + "devanagari": "विधुन्वता वेदमयं निजं वपुर्जनस्तपःसत्यनिवासिनो वयम्\nसटाशिखोद्धूतशिवाम्बुबिन्दुभिर्विमृज्यमाना भृशम् ईश पाविताः", + "transliteration": "vidhunvatā vedamayaṁ nijaṁ vapur\njanas-tapaḥ-satya-nivāsino vayam\nsaṭā-śikhoddhūta-śivāmbu-bindubhir\nvimṛjyamānā bhṛśam īśa pāvitāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vidhunvatā", + "meanings": [ + "while shaking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vedamayam", + "meanings": [ + "personified Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nijam", + "meanings": [ + "own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vapuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Janaloka planetary system" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Tapoloka planetary system" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satya", + "meanings": [ + "the Satyaloka planetary system" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nivāsinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the inhabitants" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayam", + "meanings": [ + "we" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṭā", + "meanings": [ + "hairs on the shoulder" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śikha-uddhūta", + "meanings": [ + "sustained by the tip of the hair" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śiva", + "meanings": [ + "auspicious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ambu", + "meanings": [ + "water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bindubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the particles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimṛjyamānāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "we are thus sprinkled by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhṛśam", + "meanings": [ + "highly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśa", + "meanings": [ + "Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāvitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "purified." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Supreme Lord, undoubtedly we are inhabitants of the most pious planets—the Jana, Tapas and Satya lokas—but still we have been purified by the drops of water sprinkled from Your shoulder hairs by the shaking of Your body.", + "purport": [ + "Ordinarily the body of a hog is considered impure, but one should not consider that the hog incarnation assumed by the Lord is also impure.

This Vedic varṇāśrama system is generally known as the caste system. The man who lives with a wife has a great responsibility in maintaining the members of the other social orders—the brahmacārīs, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs. Except for the gṛhasthas or the householders, everyone is supposed to engage in the spiritual advancement of life, and therefore the brahmacārī, the vānaprastha and the sannyāsī have very little time to earn a livelihood.

Before engaging in sexual intercourse, both the husband and the wife must consider their mental condition, the particular time, the husband's direction, and obedience to the demigods. According to Vedic society, there is a suitable auspicious time for sex life, which is called the time for garbhādhāna. Diti neglected all the principles of scriptural injunction, and therefore, although she was very anxious for auspicious children, she was informed that her children would not be worthy to be the sons of a brāhmaṇa. There is a clear indication herein that a brāhmaṇa's son is not always a brāhmaṇa. Personalities like Rāvaṇa and Hiraṇyakaśipu were actually born of brāhmaṇas, but they were not accepted as brāhmaṇas because their fathers did not follow the regulative principles for their birth. Such children are called demons or rākṣasas. There were only one or two rākṣasas in the previous ages due to negligence of the disciplinary methods, but during the age of Kali there is no discipline in sex life. How, then, can one expect good children? Certainly unwanted children cannot be a source of happiness in society, but through the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement they can be raised to the human standard by chanting the holy name of God.

Rāvaṇa took away Lakṣmī, Sītājī, to his kingdom, and instead of being happy by the grace of Lakṣmī, his family and his kingdom were vanquished. Thus Lakṣmī in the house of Rāvaṇa is Cañcalā, or unsteady. Men of Rāvaṇa's class want Lakṣmī only, without her husband, Nārāyaṇa; therefore they become unsteady due to Lakṣmījī. Materialistic persons find fault on the part of Lakṣmī, but in Vaikuṇṭha Lakṣmījī is fixed in the service of the Lord.

Just as there are many hundreds of thousands of higher planets above this earth, so there are many millions and billions of spiritual planets belonging to the spiritual sky. Brahmājī states herein that the spiritual kingdom is above the kingdom of the demigods. One can enter the kingdom of the Supreme Lord only when one is highly developed in desirable qualities. All good qualities develop in the person of a devotee. It is stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Fifth Canto, 18th Chapter, 13th verse that anyone who is Kṛṣṇa conscious is endowed with all the good qualities of the demigods. In the material world the qualities of the demigods are highly appreciated, just as, even in our experience, the qualities of a gentleman are more highly appreciated than the qualities of a man in ignorance or in a lower condition of life. The qualities of the demigods in the higher planets are far superior to the qualities of the inhabitants of this earth.", + "Brahmājī confirms herewith that only persons who have developed the desirable qualities can enter into the kingdom of God. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, the devotee's desirable qualities are described to be twenty-six in number. They are stated as follows: He is very kind; he does not quarrel with anyone; he accepts Kṛṣṇa consciousness as the highest goal of life; he is equal to everyone; no one can find fault in his character; he is magnanimous, mild and always clean, internally and externally; he does not profess to possess anything in this material world; he is a benefactor to all living entities; he is peaceful and is a soul completely surrendered to Kṛṣṇa; he has no material desire to fulfill; he is meek and humble, always steady, and has conquered the sensual activities; he does not eat more than required to maintain body and soul together; he is never mad after material identity; he is respectful to all others and does not demand respect for himself; he is very grave, very compassionate and very friendly; he is poetic; he is expert in all activities, and he is silent in nonsense. Similarly, in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Third Canto, 25th Chapter, 20th verse, the qualifications of a saintly person are mentioned. It is said there that a saintly person eligible to enter into the kingdom of God is very tolerant and very kind to all living entities. He is not partial; he is kind to both human beings and to animals. He is not such a fool that he will kill a goat Nārāyaṇa to feed a human Nārāyaṇa or daridra-nārāyaṇa. He is very kind to all living entities; therefore he has no enemy. He is very peaceful. These are the qualities of persons who are eligible to enter into the kingdom of God. That such a person gradually becomes liberated and enters the kingdom of God is confirmed in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Fifth Canto, 5th Chapter, 2nd verse. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Second Canto, 3rd Chapter, 24th verse, also states that if a person does not cry or exhibit bodily changes after chanting the holy name of God without offense, it is to be understood that he is hardhearted and that therefore his heart does not change even after he chants the holy name of God, Hare Kṛṣṇa. These bodily changes can take place due to ecstasy when we offenselessly chant the holy names of God, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare.", + "It may be noted that there are ten offenses that we should avoid. The first offense is to decry persons who try in their lives to broadcast the glories of the Lord. People must be educated in understanding the glories of the Supreme; therefore the devotees who engage in preaching the glories of the Lord are never to be decried. It is the greatest offense. Furthermore, the holy name of Viṣṇu is the most auspicious name, and His pastimes are also nondifferent from the holy name of the Lord. There are many foolish persons who say that one can chant Hare Kṛṣṇa or chant the name of Kālī or Durgā or Śiva because they are all the same. If one thinks that the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the names and activities of the demigods are on the same level, or if one accepts the holy name of Viṣṇu to be a material sound vibration, that is also an offense. The third offense is to think of the spiritual master who spreads the glories of the Lord as an ordinary human being. The fourth offense is to consider the Vedic literatures, such as the Purāṇas or other transcendentally revealed scriptures, to be ordinary books of knowledge. The fifth offense is to think that devotees have given artificial importance to the holy name of God. The actual fact is that the Lord is nondifferent from His name. The highest realization of spiritual value is to chant the holy name of God, as prescribed for the age—Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. The sixth offense is to give some interpretation on the holy name of God. The seventh offense is to act sinfully on the strength of chanting the holy name of God. It is understood that one can be freed from all sinful reaction simply by chanting the holy name of God, but if one thinks that he is therefore at liberty to commit all kinds of sinful acts, that is a symptom of offense. The eighth offense is to equalize the chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa with other spiritual activities, such as meditation, austerity, penance or sacrifice. They cannot be equalized at any level. The ninth offense is to specifically glorify the importance of the holy name before persons who have no interest. The tenth offense is to be attached to the misconception of possessing something, or to accept the body as one's self, while executing the process of spiritual cultivation.", + "When one is free from all ten of these offenses in chanting the holy name of God, he develops the ecstatic bodily features which are called pulakāśru. Pulaka means symptoms of happiness, and aśru means tears in the eyes. The symptoms of happiness and tears in the eyes must appear in a person who has chanted the holy name offenselessly. Here in this verse it is stated that those who have actually developed the symptoms of happiness and tears in the eyes by chanting the glories of the Lord are eligible to enter the kingdom of God. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said that if one does not develop these symptoms while chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, it is to be understood that he is still offensive. Caitanya-caritāmṛta suggests a nice remedy in this connection. There it is said, in verse 31, Chapter Eight, of Ādi-līlā, that if anyone takes shelter of Lord Caitanya and just chants the holy name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa, he becomes freed from all offenses." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cd8e8002 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,147 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 3.15.26", + "devanagari": "तद्विश्वगुर्वधिकृतं भुवनैकवन्द्यं दिव्यं विचित्रविबुधाग्र्यविमानशोचिः\nआपुः परां मुदम् अपूर्वम् उपेत्य योग मायाबलेन मुनयस्तद् अथो विकुण्ठम्", + "transliteration": "tad viśva-gurv-adhikṛtaṁ bhuvanaika-vandyaṁ\ndivyaṁ vicitra-vibudhāgrya-vimāna-śociḥ\nāpuḥ parāṁ mudam apūrvam upetya yoga-\nmāyā-balena munayas tad atho vikuṇṭham", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśva-guru", + "meanings": [ + "by the teacher of the universe, the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhikṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "predominated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvana", + "meanings": [ + "of the planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eka", + "meanings": [ + "alone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vandyam", + "meanings": [ + "worthy to be worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divyam", + "meanings": [ + "spiritual" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vicitra", + "meanings": [ + "highly decorated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibudha-agrya", + "meanings": [ + "of the devotees (who are the best of the learned)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimāna", + "meanings": [ + "of the airplanes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śociḥ", + "meanings": [ + "illuminated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parām", + "meanings": [ + "the highest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mudam", + "meanings": [ + "happiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apūrvam", + "meanings": [ + "unprecedented" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upetya", + "meanings": [ + "having attained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga-māyā", + "meanings": [ + "by spiritual potency" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balena", + "meanings": [ + "by the influence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "munayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "Vaikuṇṭha" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atho", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikuṇṭham", + "meanings": [ + "Viṣṇu." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus the great sages, Sanaka, Sanātana, Sanandana and Sanat-kumāra, upon reaching the above-mentioned Vaikuṇṭha in the spiritual world by dint of their mystic yoga performance, perceived unprecedented happiness.

He is above everyone. No one is equal to Him, nor is anyone greater than Him. Therefore He is described here as viśva-guru. He is the prime living entity of the entire material and spiritual creation and is bhuvanaika-vandyam, the only worshipable Personality in the three worlds. The airplanes in the spiritual sky are self-illuminated and are piloted by great devotees of the Lord. In other words, in the Vaikuṇṭha planets there is no scarcity of the things which are available in the material world; they are available, but they are more valuable because they are spiritual and therefore eternal and blissful. The sages felt an unprecedented happiness because Vaikuṇṭha was not predominated by an ordinary man. The Vaikuṇṭha planets are predominated by expansions of Kṛṣṇa, who are differently named as Madhusūdana, Mādhava, Nārāyaṇa, Pradyumna, etc. These transcendental planets are worshipable because the Personality of Godhead personally rules them. It is said here that the sages reached the transcendental spiritual sky by dint of their mystic power. That is the perfection of the yoga system. The breathing excercise and disciplines to keep health in proper order are not the ultimate goals of yoga perfection. The yoga system as generally understood is aṣṭāṅga-yoga, or siddhi, eightfold perfection in yoga. By dint of perfection in yoga one can become lighter than the lightest and heavier than the heaviest; one can go wherever he likes and can achieve opulences as he likes. There are eight such perfections. The ṛṣis, the four Kumāras, reached Vaikuṇṭha by becoming lighter than the lightest and thus passing over the space of the material world. Modern mechanical space vehicles are unsuccessful because they cannot go to the highest region of this material creation, and they certainly cannot enter the spiritual sky. But by perfection of the yoga system one can not only travel through material space, but can surpass material space and enter the spiritual sky. We learn this fact also from an incident concerning Durvāsā Muni and Mahārāja Ambarīṣa. It is understood that in one year Durvāsā Muni traveled everywhere and went into the spiritual sky to meet the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nārāyaṇa. By present standards, scientists calculate that if one could travel at the speed of light, it would take 40,000 years to reach the highest planet of this material world. But the yoga system can carry one without limitation or difficulty. The word yoga-māyā is used in this verse. Yoga-māyā-balena vikuṇṭham. The transcendental happiness exhibited in the spiritual world and all other spiritual manifestations there are made possible by the influence of yoga-māyā, the internal potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/27.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/27.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bfc08a1e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/27.json @@ -0,0 +1,135 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 27, + "reference": "SB 3.15.27", + "devanagari": "तस्मिन्न् अतीत्य मुनयः षड् असज्जमानाः कक्षाः समानवयसाव् अथ सप्तमायाम्\nदेवाव् अचक्षत गृहीतगदौ परार्ध्य केयूरकुण्डलकिरीटविटंकवेशौ", + "transliteration": "tasminn atītya munayaḥ ṣaḍ asajjamānāḥ\nkakṣāḥ samāna-vayasāv atha saptamāyām\ndevāv acakṣata gṛhīta-gadau parārdhya-\nkeyūra-kuṇḍala-kirīṭa-viṭaṅka-veśau", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasmin", + "meanings": [ + "in that Vaikuṇṭha" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atītya", + "meanings": [ + "after passing through" + ] + }, + { + "word": "munayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṭ", + "meanings": [ + "six" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asajjamānāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without being much attracted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kakṣāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "walls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samāna", + "meanings": [ + "equal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayasau", + "meanings": [ + "age" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thereafter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saptamāyām", + "meanings": [ + "at the seventh gate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devau", + "meanings": [ + "two Vaikuṇṭha doormen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acakṣata", + "meanings": [ + "saw" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhīta", + "meanings": [ + "carrying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gadau", + "meanings": [ + "maces" + ] + }, + { + "word": "para-ardhya", + "meanings": [ + "most valuable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "keyūra", + "meanings": [ + "bracelets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuṇḍala", + "meanings": [ + "earrings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kirīṭa", + "meanings": [ + "helmets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṭaṅka", + "meanings": [ + "beautiful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veśau", + "meanings": [ + "garments." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After passing through the six entrances of Vaikuṇṭha Purī, the Lord's residence, without feeling astonishment at all the decorations, they saw at the seventh gate two shining beings of the same age, armed with maces and adorned with most valuable jewelry, earrings, diamonds, etc.", + "purport": [ + "The sages were so eager to see the Lord within Vaikuṇṭha Purī that they did not care to see the transcendental decorations of the six gates which they passed by one after another.

Those in the renounced order of life have no other business but preaching the glories and supremacy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore the Vedic sociological conception is that a sannyāsī should not be restricted; he is allowed to go anywhere and everywhere he wants, and he is not refused any gift he might demand from a householder. The four Kumāras came to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead Nārāyaṇa. The word suhṛttama, \"best of all friends,\" is important. As Lord Kṛṣṇa states in the Bhagavad-gītā, he is the best friend of all living entities. Suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānām. No one can be a greater well-wishing friend to any living entity than the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He is so kindly disposed towards everyone that in spite of our completely forgetting our relationship with the Supreme Lord, He comes Himself—sometimes personally, as Lord Kṛṣṇa appeared on this earth, and sometimes as His devotee, as did Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu—and sometimes He sends His bona fide devotees to reclaim all the fallen souls.

The younger brother of desire is anger. If one's desire is not fulfilled, the younger brother, anger, follows. Here we can mark that even great saintly persons like the Kumāras were also angry, but they were not angry for their personal interests. They were angry because they were forbidden to enter the palace to see the Personality of Godhead. Therefore the theory that in the perfectional stage one should not have anger is not supported in this verse. Anger will continue even in the liberated stage. These four mendicant brothers, the Kumāras, were considered liberated persons, but still they were angry because they were restricted in their service to the Lord, The difference between the anger of an ordinary person and that of a liberated person is that an ordinary person becomes angry because of his sense desires not being fulfilled, whereas a liberated person like the Kumāras becomes angry when restricted in the discharge of duties for serving the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "In the previous verse it has been clearly mentioned that the Kumāras were liberated persons.

One who does not understand the truth of self-realization is called ignorant, but one who understands the self, the Super-self, their interrelation, and activities in self-realization is called viditātma-tattva. Although the Kumāras were already liberated persons, they nevertheless became angry. This point is very important. Becoming liberated does not necessitate losing one's sensual activities. Sense activities continue even in the liberated stage. The difference is, however, that sense activities in liberation are accepted only in connection with Kṛṣṇa consciousness, whereas sense activities in the conditioned stage are enacted for personal sense gratification." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6826377a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,147 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 3.15.32", + "devanagari": "मुनय ऊचुः\nको वाम् इहैत्य भगवत्परिचर्ययोच्चैस्तद्धर्मिणां निवसतां विषमः स्वभावः\nतस्मिन्प्रशान्तपुरुषे गतविग्रहे वां को वात्मवत्कुहकयोः परिशंकनीयः", + "transliteration": "munaya ūcuḥ\nko vām ihaitya bhagavat-paricaryayoccais\ntad-dharmiṇāṁ nivasatāṁ viṣamaḥ sva-bhāvaḥ\ntasmin praśānta-puruṣe gata-vigrahe vāṁ\nko vātmavat kuhakayoḥ pariśaṅkanīyaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "munayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ūcuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vām", + "meanings": [ + "you two" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in Vaikuṇṭha" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etya", + "meanings": [ + "having attained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paricaryayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uccaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "having been developed by past pious actions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-dharmiṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of the devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nivasatām", + "meanings": [ + "dwelling in Vaikuṇṭha" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "discordant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-bhāvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mentality" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmin", + "meanings": [ + "in the Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praśānta-puruṣe", + "meanings": [ + "without anxieties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gata-vigrahe", + "meanings": [ + "without any enemy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vām", + "meanings": [ + "of you two" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmavat", + "meanings": [ + "like yourselves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuhakayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "maintaining duplicity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pariśaṅkanīyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "not becoming trustworthy." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The sages said: Who are these two persons who have developed such a discordant mentality even though they are posted in the service of the Lord in the highest position and are expected to have developed the same qualities as the Lord?

All living entities who are residents of the material universes are considered to be more or less criminals because they do not wish to abide by the order of the Lord or they are against the harmonious activities of God's will. The principle of creation is that the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, is by nature joyful, and He becomes many in order to enhance His transcendental joy.

Each and every part of the body has individuality, even though occupying a small part of the total body. Similarly, the whole creation is the body of the Supreme Lord, and we created beings, or anything that is created, are but a small part of that body.

Actually all living entities are provided for and maintained by the Lord because He is the supreme living entity. But foolish creatures, although actually under the control of the supreme living entity, defy His existence, and that state is called māyā. Sometimes they deny that there is such a being as God. They say, \"Everything is void.\" And sometimes they deny Him in a different way: \"There may be a God, but He has no form.\" Both these conceptions arise from the rebellious condition of the living entity. As long as this rebellious condition prevails, the material world will continue in disharmony.", + "Harmony or disharmony is realized because of the law and order of a particular place. Religion is the law and order of the Supreme Lord. In the Śrīmad-Bhagavad-gītā we find that religion means devotional service, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Kṛṣṇa says, \"Give up all other religious principles and simply become a soul surrendered unto Me.\" This is religion. When one is fully conscious that Kṛṣṇa is the supreme enjoyer and Supreme Lord and acts accordingly, that is real religion. Anything which goes against this principle is not religion.

In this verse it is clearly stated that the two doormen should be sent into the material world where criminals are allowed to reside. Since the basic principles of criminality are sense gratification, anger and unnecessary lust, persons who are conducted by these three enemies of the living entity are never promoted to Vaikuṇṭhaloka.

Similarly, an offense unto the feet of a pure devotee murders one's position in devotional service. On the part of the Lord there was no offended mood because He does not accept any offense created by His sincere devotee. But a devotee should be very cautious of committing offenses at the feet of another devotee. The Lord, being equal to all, and being especially inclined to His devotee, looked as mercifully at the offenders as at the offended. This attitude of the Lord was due to His unlimited quantity of transcendental qualities. His cheerful attitude towards the devotees was so pleasing and heart-touching that His very smiling was attractive for them. That attraction was glorious not only for all the higher planets of this material world, but beyond, for the spiritual world also. Generally a human being has no idea of what the constitutional position is in the higher material planets, which are far better constituted in regard to all paraphernalia, yet the Vaikuṇṭha planet is so pleasing and so celestial that it is compared to the middle jewel or locket in a necklace of jewels.", + "In this verse the words spṛhaṇīya-dhāma indicate that the Lord is the reservoir of all pleasure because He has all the transcendental qualities. Although only some of these are aspired for by persons who hanker after the pleasure of merging in the impersonal Brahman, there are other aspirants who want to associate with the Lord personally as His servants. The Lord is so kind that He gives shelter to everyone—both impersonalists and devotees. He gives shelter to the impersonalists in His impersonal Brahman effulgence, whereas He gives shelter to the devotees in His personal abodes known as the Vaikuṇṭhalokas. He is especially inclined to His devotee; He touches the core of the heart of the devotee simply by smiling and glancing over him. The Lord is always served in the Vaikuṇṭhaloka by many hundreds and thousands of goddesses of fortune, as stated by the Brahma-saṁhitā (lakṣmī-sahasra-śata-sambhrama-sevyamānam). In this material world, one is glorified if he is favored even a pinch by the goddess of fortune, so we can simply imagine how glorified is the kingdom of God in the spiritual world, where many hundreds and thousands of goddesses of fortune engage in the direct service of the Lord. Another feature of this verse is that it openly declares where the Vaikuṇṭhalokas are situated.

Poets describe that, under those circumstances, although Lord Kṛṣṇa is Madanamohana, He becomes Madanadāha, or enchanted by the beauty of Rādhārāṇī. Actually the Lord's beauty is superexcellent, surpassing even the beauty of Lakṣmī in Vaikuṇṭha. The devotees of the Lord in the Vaikuṇṭha planets want to see the Lord as the most beautiful, but the devotees in Gokula or Kṛṣṇaloka want to see Rādhārāṇī as more beautiful than Kṛṣṇa.

It is specifically mentioned that the form of the Lord as four-handed Nārāyaṇa is the object of meditation for the followers of yoga-mārga. In the modern age there are so many so-called yogīs who do not target their meditation on the four-handed Nārāyaṇa form. Some of them try to meditate on something impersonal or void, but that is not approved by the great yogīs who follow the standard method. The real yoga-mārga process is to control the senses, sit in a solitary and sanctified place and meditate on the four-handed form of Nārāyaṇa, decorated as described in this chapter as He appeared before the four sages. This Nārāyaṇa form is Kṛṣṇa's expansion; therefore the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement which is now spreading is the real, topmost process of yoga practice.", + "Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the highest yoga performance by trained devotional yogīs. Despite all the allurement of yoga practice, the eight kinds of yogic perfections are hardly achievable by the common man. But here it is described that the Lord, who appeared before the four sages, is Himself full of all eight of those perfections. The highest yoga-mārga process is to concentrate the mind twenty-four hours a day on Kṛṣṇa. This is called Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The yoga system, as described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Bhagavad-gītā or as recommended in the Patañjali yoga process, is different from the nowadays practiced haṭha-yoga as it is generally understood in the Western countries. Real yoga practice is to control the senses and, after such control is established, to concentrate the mind on the Nārāyaṇa form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa is the original Personality of Godhead, and all the other Viṣṇu forms with four hands decorated with conch, lotus, club and wheel—are plenary expansions of Kṛṣṇa. In Bhagavad-gītā it is recommended that one should meditate upon the form of the Lord. To practice concentration of the mind, one has to sit with the head and the back in a straight line, and one must practice in a secluded place, sanctified by a sacred atmosphere. The yogī should observe the rules and regulations of brahmacarya—to strictly live a life of self-restraint and celibacy. One cannot practice yoga in a congested city, living a life of extravagancy, including unrestricted sex indulgence and adultery of the tongue. Yoga practice necessitates controlling the senses, and the beginning of sense control is to control the tongue. One who can control the tongue can also have control over the other senses. One cannot allow the tongue to take all kinds of forbidden food and drink and at the same time advance in the practice of yoga. It is a very regrettable fact that many unauthorized so-called yogīs come to the Western countries and exploit people's inclination towards yoga practice. Such unauthorized yogīs even dare to say publicly that one can indulge in the habit of drinking and at the same time practice meditation.", + "Five thousand years ago Lord Kṛṣṇa recommended yoga practice to Arjuna, but Arjuna frankly expressed his inability to follow the stringent rules and regulations of the yoga system. One should be very practical in every field of activities and should not waste his valuable time in practicing useless gymnastic feats in the name of yoga. Real yoga is to search out the four-handed Supersoul within one's heart and see Him perpetually in meditation. Such continued meditation is called samādhi, and the object of this meditation is the four-handed Nārāyaṇa, with bodily decorations as described in this chapter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. If, however, one wants to meditate upon something void or impersonal, it will take a very long time before he achieves success in yoga practice. We cannot concentrate our mind on something which is void or impersonal. Real yoga is to fix the mind on the form of the Lord, the four-handed Nārāyaṇa who is sitting in everyone's heart.", + "By meditation one can understand that God is seated within one's heart. Even if one does not know it, God is seated within the heart of everyone. He is not only seated in the heart of the human being, but He is also within the hearts of cats and dogs. Bhagavad-gītā certifies this fact by the declaration of the Lord, īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe. The īśvara, the supreme controller of the world, is seated in the heart of everyone. He is not only in everyone's heart, but He is also present within the atom. No place is vacant or devoid of the presence of the Lord. That is the statement of Īśopaniṣad. God is present everywhere, and His right of proprietorship applies to everything. The feature of the Lord by which He is present everywhere is called Paramātmā. Ātmā means the individual soul, and Paramātmā means the individual Supersoul; both ātmā and Paramātmā are individual persons. The difference between ātmā and Paramātmā is that the ātmā or the soul is present only in a particular body, whereas the Paramātmā is present everywhere. In this connection, the example of the sun is very nice. An individual person may be situated in one place, but the sun, even though a similar individual entity, is present on the head of every individual person. In Bhagavad-gītā this is explained. Therefore even though the qualities of all entities, including the Lord, are equal, the Supersoul is different from the individual soul by quantitative power of expansion. The Lord or the Supersoul can expand Himself into millions of different forms, whereas the individual soul cannot do so.", + "The Supersoul, being seated in everyone's heart, can witness everyone's activities—past, present and future. In the Upaniṣads the Supersoul is described as being seated with the individual soul as friend and witness. As a friend, the Lord is always anxious to get back His friend, the individual soul, and bring him back home, back to Godhead. As a witness He is the bestower of all benedictions, and He endows each individual with the result of his actions. The Supersoul gives the individual soul all facilities to achieve whatever he desires to enjoy in this material world. Suffering is a reaction to the living entity's propensity to try to lord it over the material world. But the Lord instructs His friend, the individual soul, how is also His son, to give up all other engagements and simply surrender unto Him for perpetual bliss and an eternal life full of knowledge. This is the last instruction of Bhagavad-gītā, the most authorized and widely read book on all varieties of yoga. Thus the last word of Bhagavad-gītā is the last word in the perfection of yoga.", + "It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā that a person who is always absorbed in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the topmost yogī. What is Kṛṣṇa consciousness? As the individual soul is present by his consciousness throughout his entire body, so the Supersoul or Paramātmā is present throughout the whole creation by superconsciousness. This superconscious energy is imitated by the individual soul, who has limited consciousness. I can understand what is going on within my limited body, but I cannot feel what is going on in another's body. I am present throughout my body by my consciousness, but my consciousness is not present in another's body. The Supersoul or Paramātmā, however, being present everywhere and within everyone, is also conscious of everyone's existence. The theory that the soul and the Supersoul are one is not acceptable because it is not confirmed by authoritative Vedic literature. The individual soul's consciousness cannot act in superconsciousness. This superconsciousness can be achieved, however, by dovetailing individual consciousness with the consciousness of the Supreme. This dovetailing process is called surrender, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness. From the teachings of Bhagavad-gītā we learn very clearly that Arjuna, in the beginning, did not want to fight with his brothers and relatives, but after understanding Bhagavad-gītā he dovetailed his consciousness with the superconsciousness of Kṛṣṇa. He was then in Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "A person in full Kṛṣṇa consciousness acts by the dictation of Kṛṣṇa. In the beginning of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, dictation is received through the transparent medium of the spiritual master. When one is sufficiently trained and acts in submissive faith and love for Kṛṣṇa under the direction of the bona fide spiritual master, the dovetailing process becomes more firm and accurate. This stage of devotional service by the devotee in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the most perfect stage of the yoga system. At this stage, Kṛṣṇa, or the Supersoul, dictates from within, while from without the devotee is helped by the spiritual master, who is the bona fide representative of Kṛṣṇa. From within He helps the devotee as caitya, for He is seated within the heart of everyone. Understanding that God is seated within everyone's heart is not, however, sufficient. One has to be acquainted with God both from within and without, and one must take dictation from within and without to act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. This is the highest perfectional stage of the human form of life and the topmost perfection of all yoga.", + "For a perfect yogī, there are eight kinds of super-achievements: One can become lighter than air, one can become smaller than the atom, one can become bigger than a mountain, one can achieve whatever he desires, one can control like the Lord, and so on. But when one rises to the perfectional stage of receiving dictation from the Lord, that is greater than the stage of material achievements above mentioned. The breathing exercise of the yoga system which is generally practiced is just the beginning. Meditation on the Supersoul is just another step forward. But to obtain direct contact with the Supersoul and take dictation from Him is the highest perfectional stage. The breathing exercises of meditation practice were very difficult even 5000 years ago, otherwise Arjuna would not have rejected the proposal of Kṛṣṇa that he adopt this system. This age of Kali is called the fallen age. In this age, people in general are short-living and very slow to understand self-realization or spiritual life; they are mostly unfortunate, and therefore if someone is a little bit interested in self-realization he is likely to be misguided by so many frauds. The only way to realize the perfect stage of yoga is to follow the principles of Bhagavad-gītā as practiced by Lord Caitanya. This is the simplest and highest perfection of yoga practice. Lord Caitanya demonstrated this Kṛṣṇa consciousness yoga system in a practical manner simply by chanting the holy name of Kṛṣṇa, as prescribed in the Vedānta, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā, and many important Purāṇas.", + "The largest number of Indians follow this yoga process, and in the United States it is gradually spreading in many cities. It is very easy and practical for this age, especially for those who are serious about success in yoga. No other process of yoga can be successful in this age. The meditation process was possible in the golden age of Satya-yuga because people in that age used to live for hundreds of thousands of years. If one wants success in practical yoga practice, it is advised that he take to the chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, and he will actually feel himself making progress. In Bhagavad-gītā this practice of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is prescribed as rāja-vidyā, or the king of all erudition.", + "Those who have taken to this most sublime bhakti-yoga system, who practice devotional service in transcendental love of Kṛṣṇa, can testify to its happy and easy execution. The four sages Sanaka, Sanātana, Sanandana and Sanat-kumāra also became attracted by the features of the Lord and the transcendental aroma of the dust of His lotus feet, as already described in verse 43.", + "Yoga necessitates controlling the senses, and bhakti-yoga, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, is the process of purifying the senses. When the senses are purified, they are automatically controlled. One cannot stop the activities of the senses by artificial means, but if one purifies the senses by engaging in the service of the Lord, the senses can not only be controlled from rubbish engagement, but they can be engaged in the Lord's transcendental service, as aspired to by the four sages Sanaka, Sanātana, Sanandana and Sanat-kumāra. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is not, therefore, a manufactured concoction of the speculative mind. It is the process enjoined in Bhagavad-gītā: man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru.

These persons are described here as durātmā, which means a person who has a very crooked heart, or a less intelligent person, just opposite to a mahātmā, which means one who has a broad heart. Those so-called yogīs who, although engaged in meditation, are not broad-hearted cannot find the four-handed Nārāyaṇa form, even though He is seated within their hearts. Although the first realization of the Supreme Absolute Truth is impersonal Brahman, one should not remain satisfied with experiencing the impersonal effulgence of the Supreme Lord. In the Īśopaniṣad also, the devotee prays that the glaring effulgence of Brahman may be removed from his eyes so that he can see the real personal feature of the Lord and thus satisfy himself fully. Similarly, although the Lord is not visible in the beginning because of His glaring bodily effulgence, if a devotee sincerely wants to see Him, the Lord is revealed to him. It is said in Bhagavad-gītā that the Lord cannot be seen by our imperfect eyes, He cannot be heard by our imperfect ears, and He cannot be experienced by our imperfect senses; but if one engages in devotional service with faith and devotion, then God reveals Himself.", + "Here the four sages Sanat-kumāra, Sanātana, Sanandana, and Sanaka are described as actually sincere devotees.

But because they were sincerely searching for the Lord, they finally saw His personal feature directly, which corresponded with the description given by their father. They thus became fully satisfied. Here they express their gratitude that although they were foolish impersonalists in the beginning, by the grace of the Lord they could now have the good fortune to see His personal feature. Another significant aspect of this verse is that the sages describe their experience of hearing from their father, Brahmā, who was born of the Lord directly. In other words, the disciplic succession from the Lord to Brahmā and from Brahmā to Nārada and from Nārada to Vyāsa, and so on, is accepted here.

Therefore the Kumāras confirm: \"You are the ultimate Absolute Truth.\" The impersonalist may argue that since the Supreme Personality of Godhead was so nicely decorated, He is therefore not the Absolute Truth. But here it is confirmed that all the variegatedness of the absolute platform is constituted of śuddha-sattva, pure goodness. In the material world, any quality—goodness, passion or ignorance—is contaminated. Even the quality of goodness here in the material world is not free from tinges of passion and ignorance. But in the transcendental world, only pure goodness, without any tinge of passion or ignorance, exists; therefore the form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and His variegated pastimes and paraphernalia are all pure sattva-guṇa. Such variegatedness in pure goodness is exhibited eternally by the Lord for the satisfaction of the devotee. The devotee does not want to see the Supreme Personality of Absolute Truth in voidness or impersonalism. In one sense, absolute transcendental variegatedness is meant only for the devotees, not for others, because this distinct feature of transcendental variegatedness can be understood only by the mercy of the Supreme Lord and not by mental speculation or the ascending process. It is said that one can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead when he is even slightly favored by Him; otherwise, without His mercy, a man may speculate for thousands of years and not understand what is actually the Absolute Truth.

When, by that process, they become confused or frustrated in fulfilling the maximum amount of sense enjoyment, they try to become one with the Supreme, which is, according to their conception, mukti, or liberation. There are five kinds of liberation, the least important of which is called sāyujya, to become one with the Supreme. Devotees don't care for such liberation because they are actually intelligent. Nor are they inclined to accept any of the other four kinds of liberation, namely to live on the same planet as the Lord, to live with Him side by side as an associate, to have the same opulence, and to attain the same bodily features. They are concerned only with glorifying the Supreme Lord and His auspicious activities. Pure devotional service is śravaṇaṁ kīrtanam. Pure devotees, who take transcendental pleasure in hearing and chanting the glories of the Lord, do not care for any kind of liberation; even if they are offered the five liberations, they refuse to accept them, as stated in the Bhāgavatam in the Third Canto. Materialistic persons aspire for the sense enjoyment of heavenly pleasure in the heavenly kingdom, but devotees reject such material pleasure at once. The devotee does not even care for the post of Indra. A devotee knows that any pleasurable material position is subject to be annihilated at a certain point. Even if one reaches the post of Indra, Candra, or any other demigod, he must be dissolved at a certain stage. A devotee is never interested in such temporary pleasure. From Vedic scriptures it is understood that sometimes even Brahmā and Indra fall down, but a devotee in the transcendental abode of the Lord never falls. This transcendental stage of life, in which one feels transcendental pleasure in hearing the Lord's pastimes, is also recommended by Lord Caitanya. When Lord Caitanya was talking with Rāmānanda Rāya, there were varieties of suggestions offered by Rāmānanda regarding spiritual realization, but Lord Caitanya rejected all but one—that one should hear the glories of the Lord in association with pure devotees. That is acceptable for everyone, especially in this age. One should engage himself in hearing from pure devotees about the activities of the Lord.

The example is given here of tulasī leaves. The tulasī leaf is very useful even from the medicinal or antiseptic point of view. It is considered sacred and is offered to the lotus feet of the Lord. The tulasī leaf has numerous good qualities, but if it were not offered to the lotus feet of the Lord, tulasī could not be of much value or importance. Similarly, one may speak very nicely from the rhetorical or grammatical point of view, which may be very much appreciated by a materialistic audience, but if one's words are not offered to the service of the Lord, they are useless. The holes of the ears are very small and can be filled with any insignificant sound, so how can they receive as great a vibration as the glorification of the Lord? The answer is that the holes of the ears are like the sky. As the sky can never be filled up, the quality of the ear is such that one may go on pouring in vibrations of various kinds, yet it is capable of receiving more and more vibration. A devotee is not afraid of going to hell if he has the opportunity to hear the glories of the Lord constantly. This is the advantage of chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. One may be put in any condition, but God gives him the prerogative to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. In any condition of life, if one goes on chanting he will never be unhappy." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/50.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/50.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..09408936 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/15/verses/50.json @@ -0,0 +1,153 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 50, + "reference": "SB 3.15.50", + "devanagari": "प्रादुश्चकर्थ यद् इदं पुरुहूत रूपं तेनेश निर्वृतिम् अवापुर् अलं दृशो नः\nतस्मा इदं भगवते नम इद्विधेम यो ऽनात्मनां दुरुदयो भगवान्प्रतीतः", + "transliteration": "prāduścakartha yad idaṁ puruhūta rūpaṁ\nteneśa nirvṛtim avāpur alaṁ dṛśo naḥ\ntasmā idaṁ bhagavate nama id vidhema\nyo 'nātmanāṁ durudayo bhagavān pratītaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "prāduścakartha", + "meanings": [ + "You have manifested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruhūta", + "meanings": [ + "greatly worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rūpam", + "meanings": [ + "eternal form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tena", + "meanings": [ + "by that form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśa", + "meanings": [ + "O Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirvṛtim", + "meanings": [ + "satisfaction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avāpuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "obtained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alam", + "meanings": [ + "so much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "vision" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "our" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmai", + "meanings": [ + "unto Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavate", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "it", + "meanings": [ + "only" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidhema", + "meanings": [ + "let us offer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anātmanām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who are less intelligent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durudayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "cannot be seen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratītaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "has been seen by us." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Lord, we therefore offer our respectful obeisances unto Your eternal form as the Personality of Godhead which You have so kindly manifested before us.

Even if they are satisfied in their minds, still, transcendentally, their eyes are not satisfied. But as soon as such persons come to realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they are satisfied in all respects. In other words, they become devotees and want to see the form of the Lord continually. It is confirmed in the Brahma-saṁhitā that one who has developed transcendental love of Kṛṣṇa by smearing his eyes with the ointment of love sees constantly the eternal form of the Lord. The particular word used in this connection, anātmanām, signifies those who have no control over the mind and senses and who therefore speculate and want to become one with the Lord. Such persons cannot have the pleasure of seeing the eternal form of the Lord. For the impersonalists and the so-called yogīs, the Lord is always hidden by the curtain of yoga-māyā. Bhagavad-gītā says that even when Lord Kṛṣṇa was seen by everyone while He was present on the surface of the earth, the impersonalist and the so-called yogīs could not see Him because they were devoid of devotional eyesight. The theory of the impersonalists and so-called yogīs is that the Supreme Lord assumes a particular form when He comes in touch with māyā, although actually He has no form. This very conception of the impersonalists and so-called yogīs checks them from seeing the Supreme Personality of Godhead as He is.

The Lord is so merciful that even if there is some impediment for the devotee, He Himself manages matters in such a way that the devotee is not bereft of having audience at His lotus feet. There is a very good example in the life of Haridāsa Ṭhākura. When Caitanya Mahāprabhu was residing at Jagannātha Purī, Haridāsa Ṭhākura, who happened to be Mohammedan by birth, was with Him. In Hindu temples, especially in those days, no one but a Hindu was allowed to enter. Although Haridāsa Ṭhākura was the greatest of all Hindus in his behavior, he considered himself a Mohammedan and did not enter the temple. Lord Caitanya could understand his humility, and since he did not go to see the temple, Lord Caitanya Himself, who is nondifferent from Jagannātha, used to come and sit with Haridāsa Ṭhākura daily. Here in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam we also find this same behavior of the Lord. His devotees were prevented from seeing His lotus feet, but the Lord Himself came to see them on the same lotus feet for which they aspired.

As far as bodily affairs or social activities are concerned, although a person is purified on the spiritual platform, it is sometimes seen that he acts in terms of his bodily relationships. If a devotee born in the family of a caṇḍāla (the lowest caste) is sometimes found engaged in his habitual activities, he is not to be considered a caṇḍāla. In other words, a Vaiṣṇava should not be evaluated in terms of his body. In the śāstra it states that no one should think the Deity in the temple to be made of wood or stone, and no one should think that a person coming from a lower caste family who has taken to Kṛṣṇa consciousness is still of the same low caste. These attitudes are forbidden because anyone who takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness is understood to be fully purified. He is at least engaged in the process of purification, and if he sticks to the principle of Kṛṣṇa consciousness he will very soon be fully purified. The conclusion is that if one takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness with all seriousness, he is to be understood as already purified, and Kṛṣṇa is ready to give him protection by all means. The Lord assures herein that He is ready to give protection to His devotee even if there is need to cut off part of His own body." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..88b6774a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,153 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 3.16.7", + "devanagari": "यत्सेवया चरणपद्मपवित्ररेणुं सद्यः क्षताखिलमलं प्रतिलब्धशीलम्\nन श्रीर्विरक्तम् अपि मां विजहाति यस्याः प्रेक्षालवार्थ इतरे नियमान्वहन्ति", + "transliteration": "yat-sevayā caraṇa-padma-pavitra-reṇuṁ\nsadyaḥ kṣatākhila-malaṁ pratilabdha-śīlam\nna śrīr viraktam api māṁ vijahāti yasyāḥ\nprekṣā-lavārtha itare niyamān vahanti", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "of whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sevayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caraṇa", + "meanings": [ + "feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padma", + "meanings": [ + "lotus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pavitra", + "meanings": [ + "sacred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "reṇum", + "meanings": [ + "the dust" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "immediately" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣata", + "meanings": [ + "wiped out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akhila", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "malam", + "meanings": [ + "sins" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratilabdha", + "meanings": [ + "acquired" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śīlam", + "meanings": [ + "disposition" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the goddess of fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viraktam", + "meanings": [ + "have no attachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even though" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijahāti", + "meanings": [ + "leave" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the goddess of fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prekṣā-lava-arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "for obtaining a slight favor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "itare", + "meanings": [ + "others, like Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niyamān", + "meanings": [ + "sacred vows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vahanti", + "meanings": [ + "observe." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Lord continued: Because I am the servitor of My devotees, My lotus feet have become so sacred that they immediately wipe out all sin, and I have acquired such a disposition that the goddess of fortune does not leave Me, even though I have no attachment for her and others praise her beauty and observe sacred vows to secure from her even a slight favor.", + "purport": [ + "The relationship between the Lord and His devotee is transcendentally beautiful.

Since a Vaiṣṇava dedicates all the results of his activities to the Lord, he does not taste anything eatable which is not first offered to Him. The Lord also relishes giving to the Vaiṣṇava's mouth all eatables offered to Him. It is clear from this verse that the Lord eats through the sacrificial fire and the brāhmaṇa's mouth. So many articles—grains, ghee, etc.—are offered in sacrifice for the satisfaction of the Lord. The Lord accepts sacrificial offerings from the brāhmaṇas and devotees, and elsewhere it is stated that whatever is given for the brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas to eat is also accepted by the Lord. But here it is said that He accepts offerings to the mouths of brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas with even greater relish. The best example of this is found in the life of Advaita Prabhu in his dealings with Haridāsa Ṭhākura. Even though Haridāsa was born of a Mohammedan family, Advaita Prabhu offered him the first dish of prasāda after the performance of a sacred fire ceremony. Haridāsa Ṭhākura informed him that he was born of a Mohammedan family and asked why Advaita Prabhu was offering the first dish to a Mohammedan instead of an elevated brāhmaṇa. Out of his humbleness, Haridāsa condemned himself a Mohammedan, but Advaita Prabhu, being an experienced devotee, accepted him as a real brāhmaṇa. Advaita Prabhu asserted that by offering the first dish to Haridāsa Ṭhākura, he was getting the result of feeding 100,000 brāhmaṇas. The conclusion is that if one can feed a brāhmaṇa or Vaiṣṇava, it is better than performing hundreds of thousands of sacrifices.

Just as children are taken care of by the parents, women as a class should be taken care of by the father, husband or grown-up son. Those who are helpless must be taken care of by their respective guardians, otherwise the guardians will be subjected to the punishment of Yamarāja, who is appointed by the Lord to supervise the activities of sinful living creatures.

There are many examples of this. For instance, the sons of Kuvera, when they were cursed by the great sage Nārada, did not seek revenge in the same harsh way, but submitted. Here also, when Jaya and Vijaya were cursed by the four Kumāras, they did not become harsh towards them; rather, they submitted. That should be the way of treating brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas. One may sometimes be faced with a grievous situation created by a brāhmaṇa, but instead of meeting him with a similar mood, one should try to pacify him with a smiling face and mild treatment. Brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas should be accepted as earthly representatives of Nārāyaṇa. Nowadays some foolish persons have manufactured the term \"daridra-nārāyaṇa,\" indicating that the poor man should be accepted as the representative of Nārāyaṇa. But in Vedic literature we do not find that poor men should be treated as representatives of Nārāyaṇa. Of course, \"those who are unprotected\" are mentioned here, but the definition of this phrase is clear from the śāstras.

Bhagavad-gītā says that one who worships a particular demigod can reach the demigod's planet, but one who worships the Supreme Personality of Godhead can enter into Vaikuṇṭha.

In three millenniums religious principles are protected by three kinds of spiritual culture, namely austerity, cleanliness and mercy. The Lord is called triyuga in that way also.

Lord Caitanya is called covered because although He is Kṛṣṇa Himself, He presents Himself as a devotee of Kṛṣṇa, not directly. The devotees pray to Lord Caitanya, therefore, to eliminate their stock of passion and ignorance, the most conspicuous assets of this yuga.

The three transcendental qualifications, cleanliness, austerity and mercy, are the qualifications of the twice-born and the demigods. Those who are not situated in the quality of goodness cannot accept these three principles of spiritual culture. For the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, therefore, there are three sinful activities which are prohibited—namely illicit sex, intoxication, and eating food other than the prasāda offered to Kṛṣṇa. These three prohibitions are based on the principles of austerity, cleanliness and mercy. Devotees are merciful because they spare the poor animals, and they are clean because they are free of contamination from unwanted foodstuff and unwanted habits.

Protection of the laborers should not be neglected, but special protection should be given to the upper orders. Of all classes of men, the brāhmaṇas and the Vaiṣṇavas should be given special protection. They should be worshiped. When their protection is performed, it is just like worshiping God. That is not exactly protection; it is a duty.

The fighting spirit also exists in the Supreme Lord, otherwise how could fighting be manifested at all? Because the Lord is the source of everything, anger and fighting are also inherent in His personality. When He desires to fight with someone, He has to find an enemy, but in the Vaikuṇṭha world there is no enemy because everyone is engaged fully in His service. Therefore He sometimes comes to the material world as an incarnation in order to manifest His fighting spirit.", + "In Bhagavad-gītā also it is said that the Lord appears just to give protection to the devotees and to annihilate the nondevotees (Bg. 4.8). The nondevotees are found in the material world, not in the spiritual world; therefore, when the Lord wants to fight, He has to come to this world. But who will fight with the Supreme Lord? No one is able to fight with Him! Therefore, because the Lord's pastimes in the material world are always performed with His associates, not with others, He has to find some devotee who will play the part of an enemy. In Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says to Arjuna, \"My dear Arjuna, both you and I appeared many, many times in this material world, but you have forgotten, whereas I remember.\" Thus Jaya and Vijaya were selected by the Lord to fight with Him in the material world, and that was the reason the sages came to see Him and accidentally the doorkeepers were cursed. It was the Lord's desire to send them to the material world, not perpetually, but for some time. Therefore, just as, on a theatrical stage, someone takes the part of enemy to the proprietor of the stage although the play is for a short time and there is no permanent enmity between the servant and the proprietor, similarly the sura-janas (devotees) were cursed by the sages to go to the asura-jana or atheistic families. That a devotee should come into an atheistic family is surprising, but it is simply a show. After finishing their mock fighting, both the devotee and the Lord are again associated in the spiritual planets. That is very explicitly explained here. The conclusion is that no one falls from the spiritual world or Vaikuṇṭha planet, for it is the eternal abode. But sometimes, as the Lord desires, devotees come into this material world as preachers or as atheists. In each case we must understand that there is a plan of the Lord. Lord Buddha, for example, is an incarnation, yet he preached atheism: \"There is no God.\" But actually there was a plan behind this, as explained in the Bhāgavatam." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/27.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/27.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..26c30a85 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/27.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 27, + "reference": "SB 3.16.27", + "devanagari": "ब्रह्मोवाच\nअथ ते मुनयो दृष्ट्वा नयनानन्दभाजनम्\nवैकुण्ठं तदधिष्ठानं विकुण्ठं च स्वयंप्रभम्", + "transliteration": "brahmovāca\natha te munayo dṛṣṭvā\nnayanānanda-bhājanam\nvaikuṇṭhaṁ tad-adhiṣṭhānaṁ\nvikuṇṭhaṁ ca svayaṁ-prabham", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "brahmā uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Brahmā said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "now" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "munayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭvā", + "meanings": [ + "after seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nayana", + "meanings": [ + "of the eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ānanda", + "meanings": [ + "pleasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhājanam", + "meanings": [ + "producing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaikuṇṭham", + "meanings": [ + "the Vaikuṇṭha planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "of Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhiṣṭhānam", + "meanings": [ + "the abode" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikuṇṭham", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam-prabham", + "meanings": [ + "self-illuminating." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Brahmā said: After seeing the Lord of Vaikuṇṭha, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, in the self-illuminated Vaikuṇṭha planet, the sages left that transcendental abode.", + "purport": [ + "The transcendental abode of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as stated in Bhagavad-gītā and confirmed in this verse, is self-illuminated.

There are twelve rasas, five primary and seven secondary. The five primary rasas constitute direct bhakti-yoga, but although the seven secondary rasas are indirect, they are also counted within bhakti-yoga if they are used in the service of the Lord. In other words, bhakti-yoga is all-inclusive. If one somehow or other becomes attached to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he becomes engaged in bhakti-yoga, as described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.29.15): kāmaṁ krodhaṁ bhayam. The gopīs were attracted to Kṛṣṇa by bhakti-yoga in a relationship of lusty desire (kāma). Similarly, Kaṁsa was attached to bhakti-yoga by dint of fear of his death. Thus bhakti-yoga is so powerful that even becoming an enemy of the Lord and always thinking of Him can deliver one very quickly. It is said, viṣṇu-bhakto bhaved daiva āsuras tad-viparayāt: \"Devotees of Lord Viṣṇu are called demigods, whereas nondevotees are called asuras.\" But bhakti-yoga is so powerful that both demigods and asuras can derive its benefits if they always think of the Personality of Godhead. The basic principle of bhakti-yoga is to think of the Supreme Lord always. The Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā, man-manā bhava mad-bhaktaḥ: \"Always think of Me.\" (Bg. 18.65) It doesn't matter in which way one thinks; the very thought of the Personality of Godhead is the basic principle of bhakti-yoga.", + "In the material planets there are different grades of sinful activities, of which disrespecting a brāhmaṇa or a Vaiṣṇava is the most sinful. Here it is clearly stated that one can overcome even that grave sin simply by thinking of Viṣṇu, not even favorably but in anger. Thus even if those who are not devotees always think of Viṣṇu, they become free from all sinful activities. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the highest form of thought. Lord Viṣṇu is thought of in this age by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. From the statements of the Bhāgavatam it appears that if one thinks of Kṛṣṇa, even as an enemy, that particular qualification—thinking of Viṣṇu or Kṛṣṇa—cleanses one of all sins." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d76c64ee --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/16/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 3.16.32", + "devanagari": "द्वाःस्थाव् आदिश्य भगवान्विमानश्रेणिभूषणम्\nसर्वातिशयया लक्ष्म्या जुष्टं स्वं धिष्ण्यम् आविशत्", + "transliteration": "dvāḥsthāv ādiśya bhagavān\nvimāna-śreṇi-bhūṣaṇam\nsarvātiśayayā lakṣmyā\njuṣṭaṁ svaṁ dhiṣṇyam āviśat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dvāḥ-sthau", + "meanings": [ + "to the doorkeepers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādiśya", + "meanings": [ + "just directing them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimāna-śreṇi-bhūṣaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "always decorated with first-class airplanes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-atiśayayā", + "meanings": [ + "in every respect extensively opulent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lakṣmyā", + "meanings": [ + "opulences" + ] + }, + { + "word": "juṣṭam", + "meanings": [ + "bedecked with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svam", + "meanings": [ + "His own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiṣṇyam", + "meanings": [ + "abode" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āviśat", + "meanings": [ + "went back." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After thus speaking at the door of Vaikuṇṭha, the Lord returned to His abode, where there are many celestial airplanes and all-surpassing wealth and splendor.", + "purport": [ + "It is clear from this verse that all the incidents took place at the entrance of Vaikuṇṭhaloka.

In this connection it is to be remembered that the mind of Kaśyapa Muni was not in order when he conceived the two sons, Hiraṇyākṣa and Hiraṇyakaśipu. Therefore the semina he discharged was simultaneously extremely powerful and mixed with the quality of anger. It is to be concluded that while conceiving a child one's mind must be very sober and devotional. For this purpose the Garbhādhāna-saṁskāra is recommended in the Vedic scriptures. If the mind of the father is not sober, the semina discharged will not be very good.

Seeing all these reverses affect devotees, one should not be disturbed; one should simply understand that in these matters there must be some plan of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Bhāgavatam's conclusion is that a devotee is never disturbed by such reverses. He accepts even reverse conditions as the grace of the Lord. One who continues to serve the Lord even in reverse conditions is assured that he will go back to Godhead, back to the Vaikuṇṭha planets.

We can learn from the description of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that it is because of the birth of two great demons that there were so many natural disturbances. It is to be indirectly understood, as previously described, that when there are constant disturbances on the earth, that is an omen that some demoniac people have been born or that the demoniac population has increased. In former days there were only two demons, those born of Diti, yet there were so many disturbances. At the present day, especially in this age of Kali, these disturbances are always visible, which indicates that the demoniac population has certainly increased.", + "To check the increase of demoniac population, the Vedic civilization enacted so many rules and regulations of social life, the most important of which is the garbhādhāna process for begetting good children. In Bhagavad-gītā Arjuna informed Kṛṣṇa that if there is unwanted population (varṇa-saṅkara), the entire world will appear to be hell. People are very anxious for peace in the world, but there are so many unwanted children born without the benefit of the garbhādhāna ceremony, just like the demons born from Diti. Diti was so lusty that she forced her husband to copulate at a time which was inauspicious, and therefore the demons were born to create disturbances. In having sex life to beget children, one should observe the process for begetting nice children; if each and every householder in every family observes the Vedic system, then there are nice children, not demons, and automatically there is peace in the world. If we do not follow regulations in life for social tranquility, we cannot expect peace.

For example, he addressed Him as vana-gocaraḥ, which means one who is a resident of the forest, but another meaning of vana-gocaraḥ is one who lies on the water. Viṣṇu lies on the water, so the Supreme Personality of Godhead can be properly addressed in this way. The demon also addressed Him as mṛgaḥ, indicating, unintentionally, that the Supreme Personality is sought after by great sages, saintly persons and transcendentalists. He also addressed Him as ajña. Śrīdhara Svāmī says that jña means knowledge and there is no knowledge which is unknown to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Indirectly, therefore, the demon said that Viṣṇu knows everything. He addressed Him as surādhama. Sura means the demigods, and adhama means Lord of all there is. He is Lord of all the demigods; therefore He is the best of all demigods, or God.

When demons are in adversity, they think that God is hiding Himself and is working by His mystic potency. They think that if they can find God they can kill Him just by seeing Him. Hiraṇyākṣa thought that way, and he challenged the Lord: \"You have done tremendous harm to our community, taking the part of the demigods, and You have killed our kinsmen in so many ways, always keeping Yourself hidden.

In the Vedic scriptures, the neophyte devotees are advised to engage in nine kinds of devotional service, such as to hear and chant the holy name of God, to remember Him always, to chant on beads Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, to worship the Lord in the form of His Deity incarnation in the temples, and to engage in various activities of Kṛṣṇa consciousness to increase the number of godly persons for perfect peace in the world. Demons do not like such activity. They are always envious of God and His devotees. Their propaganda not to worship in the temple or church but simply to make material advancement for satisfaction of the senses is always current. The demon Hiraṇyākṣa, upon seeing the Lord face to face, wanted to make a permanent solution by killing the Personality of Godhead with his powerful mace. The example of an uprooted tree mentioned here by the demon is very significant. Devotees accept that God is the root of everything. Their example is that just as the stomach is the source of energy of all the limbs of the body, so God is the original source of all energy manifested in the material and spiritual worlds; therefore, as supplying food to the stomach is the process to satisfy all the limbs of the body, so Kṛṣṇa consciousness or developing love of Kṛṣṇa is the sublime method for satisfying the source of all happiness. The demon wants to uproot this source because if the root, God, were to be checked, the activities of the Lord and the devotees would automatically stop. The demon would be very much satisfied by such a situation in society. Demons are always anxious to have a godless society for their sense gratification. According to Śrīdhara Svāmī, this verse means that when the demon was deprived of his mace by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, not only the neophyte devotees but also the ancient sagacious devotees of the Lord would be very much satisfied." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/18/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/18/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..49f6ecc4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/18/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,129 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 3.18.6", + "devanagari": "स तुद्यमानो ऽरिदुरुक्ततोमरैर्दंष्ट्राग्रगां गाम् उपलक्ष्य भीताम्\nतोदं मृषन्निरगाद् अम्बुमध्याद्ग्राहाहतः सकरेणुर्यथेभः", + "transliteration": "sa tudyamāno 'ri-durukta-tomarair\ndaṁṣṭrāgra-gāṁ gām upalakṣya bhītām\ntodaṁ mṛṣan niragād ambu-madhyād\ngrāhāhataḥ sa-kareṇur yathebhaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "He" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tudyamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being pained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ari", + "meanings": [ + "of the enemy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durukta", + "meanings": [ + "by the abusive words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tomaraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the weapons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daṁṣṭra-agra", + "meanings": [ + "on the ends of His tusks" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gām", + "meanings": [ + "situated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gām", + "meanings": [ + "the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upalakṣya", + "meanings": [ + "seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhītām", + "meanings": [ + "frightened" + ] + }, + { + "word": "todam", + "meanings": [ + "the pain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛṣan", + "meanings": [ + "bearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niragāt", + "meanings": [ + "He came out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ambu-madhyāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the midst of the water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grāha", + "meanings": [ + "by a crocodile" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attacked" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-kareṇuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "along with a she-elephant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ibhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "an elephant." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Although the Lord was pained by the shaftlike abusive words of the demon, He bore the pain.

The prayers of the demigods or devotees of the Lord are free from all sinful purposes, but the prayers of demons are always filled with sinful purposes. The demon Hiraṇyākṣa became powerful by deriving a boon from Brahmā, and after attaining that boon he created a disturbance because of his sinful intentions. The prayers of Brahmā and other demigods are not to be compared to the prayers of the demons. Their purpose is to please the Supreme Lord; therefore the Lord smiled and accepted the prayer to kill the demon. Demons, who are never interested in praising the Supreme Personality of Godhead because they have no information of Him, go to the demigods, and in Bhagavad-gītā this is condemned. Persons who go to the demigods and pray for advancement in sinful activities are considered to be bereft of all intelligence. Demons have lost all intelligence because they do not know what is actually their self-interest. Even if they have information of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they decline to approach Him; it is not possible for them to get their desired boons from the Supreme Lord because their purposes are always sinful. It is said that the dacoits in Bengal used to worship the goddess Kālī for fulfillment of their sinful desires to plunder others' property, but they never went to a Viṣṇu temple because they might have been unsuccessful in praying to Viṣṇu.

This is clearly explained here. If one wants to have transcendental pleasure, he must find a person with authority. It is also stated in the Bhāgavatam that simply by hearing from an authoritative source, with the ear and the heart, one can relish the pastimes of the Lord, otherwise it is not possible. Sanātana Gosvāmī, therefore, has especially warned that one should not hear anything about the personality of the Lord from the lips of a nondevotee. Nondevotees are considered to be like serpents; as milk is poisoned by a serpent's touch, so, although the narration of the pastimes of the Lord is as pure as milk, when administered by serpentlike nondevotees it becomes poisonous. Not only does it have no effect in transcendental pleasure, but it is dangerous also. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu has warned that no description of the pastimes of the Lord should be heard from the Māyāvāda or impersonalist school. He has clearly said, māyāvādi-bhāṣya: If anyone hears the Māyāvādīs' interpretation of the pastimes of the Lord, or their interpretation of Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or any other Vedic literature, then he is doomed. Once one is associated with impersonalists, he can never understand the personal feature of the Lord and His transcendental pastimes.", + "Sūta Gosvāmī was speaking to the sages headed by Śaunaka, and therefore he addressed them in this verse as dvija, twice-born. The sages assembled in Naimiṣāraṇya hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from Sūta Gosvāmī were all brāhmaṇas, but to acquire the qualifications of a brāhmaṇa is not everything. Merely to be twice-born is not perfection. Perfection is attained when one hears the pastimes and activities of the Lord from a bona fide source." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/19/verses/34.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/19/verses/34.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..77ccc2f0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/19/verses/34.json @@ -0,0 +1,69 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 19, + "verse": 34, + "reference": "SB 3.19.34", + "devanagari": "अन्येषां पुण्यश्लोकानाम् उद्दामयशसां सताम्\nउपश्रुत्य भवेन्मोदः श्रीवत्सांकस्य किं पुनः", + "transliteration": "anyeṣāṁ puṇya-ślokānām\nuddāma-yaśasāṁ satām\nupaśrutya bhaven modaḥ\nśrīvatsāṅkasya kiṁ punaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "anyeṣām", + "meanings": [ + "of others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṇya-ślokānām", + "meanings": [ + "of pious reputation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uddāma-yaśasām", + "meanings": [ + "whose fame is spread everywhere" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satām", + "meanings": [ + "of the devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upaśrutya", + "meanings": [ + "by hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavet", + "meanings": [ + "may arise" + ] + }, + { + "word": "modaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pleasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrīvatsa-aṅkasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord who bears the mark Śrīvatsa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim punaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "what to speak of." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "What to speak of hearing the pastimes of the Lord, whose chest is marked with Śrīvatsa, people may take transcendental pleasure even in hearing of the works and deeds of the devotees, whose fame is immortal.", + "purport": [ + "Bhāgavatam literally means the pastimes of the Lord and the Lord's devotees.

In India there are hundreds of sacred places of pilgrimage, of which Prayāga, Hardwar, Vṛndāvana and Rameshwaram are considered principal. After leaving his home, which was full of politics and diplomacy, Vidura wanted to purify himself by traveling to all the sacred places, which are so situated that anyone who goes there automatically becomes purified. This is especially true in Vṛndāvana; any person may go there, and even if he is sinful he will at once contact an atmosphere of spiritual life and will automatically chant the names of Kṛṣṇa and Rādhā. That we have actually seen and experienced. It is recommended in the śāstras that after retiring from active life and accepting the vānaprastha (retired) order, one should travel everywhere to places of pilgrimage in order to purify himself. Vidura completely discharged this duty, and at last he reached Kuśāvarta, or Hardwar, where the sage Maitreya was sitting.", + "Another significant point is that one must go to sacred places not only to take bath there, but to search out great sages like Maitreya and take instructions from them. If one does not do so, his traveling to places of pilgrimage is simply a waste of time. Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura, a great ācārya of the Vaiṣṇava sect, has, for the present, forbidden us to go to such places of pilgrimage because in this age, the times having so changed, a sincere person may have a different impression on seeing the behavior of the present residents of the pilgrimage sites. He has recommended that instead of taking the trouble to travel to such places, one should concentrate his mind on Govinda, and that will help him. Of course, to concentrate one's mind on Govinda in any place is a path meant for those who are the most spiritually advanced; it is not for ordinary persons. Ordinary persons may still derive benefit from traveling to holy places like Prayāga, Mathurā, Vṛndāvana and Hardwar.", + "It is recommended in this verse that one find a person who knows the science of God, or a tattva-vit. Tattva-vit means one who knows the Absolute Truth. There are many pseudo-transcendentalists, even at places of pilgrimage. Such men are always present, and one has to be intelligent enough to find the actual person to be consulted; then his attempt to progress by traveling to different holy places will be successful. One has to be freed from all contamination, and at the same time he has to find a person who knows the science of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa helps a sincere person; as stated in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde: by the mercy of the spiritual master and Kṛṣṇa, one attains the path of salvation, devotional service. If one sincerely searches for spiritual salvation, then Kṛṣṇa, being situated in everyone's heart, gives him the intelligence to find a suitable spiritual master.

The first cause is daiva, or the destiny of the conditioned soul. The material creation exists for the conditioned soul who wanted to become a false lord for sense enjoyment. One cannot trace out the history of when the conditioned soul first desired to lord it over material nature, but in Vedic literature we always find that the material creation is meant for the sense enjoyment of the conditioned soul. There is a nice verse which says that the sum and substance of the conditioned soul's sense enjoyment is that as soon as he forgets his primary duty, to render service to the Lord, he creates an atmosphere of sense enjoyment which is called māyā; that is the cause of material creation.", + "Another word used here is durvitarkyeṇa. No one can argue about when and how the conditioned soul became desirous of sense enjoyment, but the cause is there. Material nature is an atmosphere meant only for the sense enjoyment of the conditioned soul, and it is created by the Personality of Godhead. It is mentioned here that in the beginning of creation the material nature, or prakṛti, is agitated by the Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu. There are three Viṣṇus mentioned. One is Mahā-Viṣṇu, another is Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and the third is Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. The First Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam discusses all these three Viṣṇus, and here also it is confirmed that Viṣṇu is the cause of creation. From Bhagavad-gītā also we learn that prakṛti begins to work and is still working under Kṛṣṇa's, or Viṣṇu's, glance of superintendence, but the Supreme Personality of Godhead is unchangeable. One should not mistakenly think that because the creation emanates from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He has therefore transformed into this material cosmic manifestation. He exists in His personal form always, but the cosmic manifestation takes place by His inconceivable potency. The workings of that energy are difficult to comprehend, but it is understood from Vedic literature that the conditioned soul creates his own destiny and is offered a particular body by the laws of nature under the superintendence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who always accompanies him as Paramātmā." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..dca43278 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 3.20.13", + "devanagari": "रजःप्रधानान्महतस्त्रिलिंगो दैवचोदितात्\nजातः ससर्ज भूतादिर्वियदादीनि पंचशः", + "transliteration": "rajaḥ-pradhānān mahatas\ntriliṅgo daiva-coditāt\njātaḥ sasarja bhūtādir\nviyad-ādīni pañcaśaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "rajas-pradhānāt", + "meanings": [ + "in which the element of rajas, or passion, predominates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the mahat-tattva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tri-liṅgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of three kinds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daiva-coditāt", + "meanings": [ + "impelled by superior authority" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "was born" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sasarja", + "meanings": [ + "evolved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūta-ādiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the false ego (origin of the material elements)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viyat", + "meanings": [ + "the ether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādīni", + "meanings": [ + "beginning with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pañcaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in groups of five." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As impelled by the destiny of the jīva, the false ego, which is of three kinds, evolved from the mahat-tattva, in which the element of rajas predominates.

The living entity, being eternally a part and parcel servitor of the Supreme Lord, can never, by constitution, be an equal enjoyer with the Lord.

Never mind whether you commit all kinds of so-called sins. You must eat sumptuously. Beg, borrow and steal, and if you think that by stealing and borrowing you are being entangled in sinful activities for which you will have to pay, then just forget that misconception because after death everything is finished.

The condition of not knowing anything about the spirit soul is called tamas. This material world is also generally called tamas because 99% of its living entities are ignorant of their identity as soul. Almost everyone is thinking that he is this body; he has no information of the spirit soul. Guided by this misconception, one always thinks, \"This is my body, and anything in relationship with this body is mine.\" For such misguided living entities, sex life is the background of material existence. Actually, the conditioned souls, in ignorance in this material world, are simply guided by sex life, and as soon as they get the opportunity for sex life, they become attached to so-called home, motherland, children, wealth and opulence. As these attachments increase, so moha, or the illusion of the bodily concept of life, also increases. Thus the idea that \"I am this body, and everything belonging to this body is mine\" also increases, and as the whole world is put into moha, sectarian societies, families and nationalities are created, and they fight with one another.

For example, Hanumānjī (Vajrāṅgajī) wanted to see the form of the Lord as the Personality of Godhead Rāmacandra, whereas other Vaiṣṇavas want to see the form of Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa, and still other devotees want to see the Lord in the form of Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa. The Māyāvādī philosophers think that although all these forms are assumed by the Lord just as the devotees desire to see Him, actually He is impersonal. From Brahma-saṁhitā, however, we can understand that this is not so, for the Lord has multi-forms. It is said in the Brahma-saṁhitā, advaitam acyutam. The Lord does not appear before the devotee because of the devotee's imagination. Brahma-saṁhitā further explains that the Lord has innumerable forms: rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan. He exists in millions and millions of forms. There are 8,400,000 species of living entities, but the incarnations of the Supreme Lord are innumerable. In the Bhāgavatam it is stated that as the waves in the sea cannot be counted but appear and disappear continually, so the incarnations and forms of the Lord are innumerable. A devotee is attached to a particular form, and it is that form which he worships. We have just described the first appearance of the boar within this universe. There are innumerable universes, and somewhere or other the boar form is now existing. All the forms of the Lord are eternal. It is the devotee's inclination to worship a particular form, and he engages in devotional service to that form. In a verse in the Rāmāyaṇa, Hanumān, the great devotee of Rāma, said, \"I know that there is no difference between the Sītā-Rāma and Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa forms of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but nevertheless the form of Rāma and Sītā has absorbed my affection and love. Therefore I want to see the Lord in the forms of Rāma and Sītā.\" Similarly, the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava loves the forms of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, and Kṛṣṇa and Rukmiṇī at Dvārakā. The words bhaktānām anurūpātma-darśanam mean that the Lord is always pleased to favor the devotee in the particular form in which the devotee wants to worship and render service unto Him. In this verse it is stated that Brahmā approached Hari, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This form of the Lord is Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Whenever there is some trouble and Brahmā has to approach the Lord, he can approach Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and it is the grace of the Lord that whenever Brahmā approaches about disturbances in the universe, the Lord gives him relief in so many ways." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..974a8f7b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 3.20.26", + "devanagari": "पाहि मां परमात्मंस्ते प्रेषणेनासृजं प्रजाः\nता इमा यभितुं पापा उपाक्रामन्ति मां प्रभो", + "transliteration": "pāhi māṁ paramātmaṁs te\npreṣaṇenāsṛjaṁ prajāḥ\ntā imā yabhituṁ pāpā\nupākrāmanti māṁ prabho", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pāhi", + "meanings": [ + "protect" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paramātman", + "meanings": [ + "O Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "Your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "preṣaṇena", + "meanings": [ + "by order" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asṛjam", + "meanings": [ + "I created" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "living beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāḥ imāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "those very persons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yabhitum", + "meanings": [ + "to have sex" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāpāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sinful beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upākrāmanti", + "meanings": [ + "are approaching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabho", + "meanings": [ + "O Lord." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Brahmā, approaching the Lord, addressed Him thus: My Lord, please protect me from these sinful demons, who were created by me under Your order.

If anyone can completely perceive another's distress without doubt, it is the Lord Himself. If someone is in distress and wants to get relief from his friend, sometimes it so happens that his friend does not appreciate the volume of distress he is suffering. But for the Supreme Lord it is not difficult. The Supreme Lord, as Paramātmā, is sitting within the heart of every living entity, and He directly perceives the exact causes of distress. In Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says, sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭaḥ: \"I am sitting in everyone's heart, and because of Me one's remembrance and forgetfulness occur.\" Thus whenever one fully surrenders unto the Supreme Lord, he finds that He is sitting within his heart. He can give us direction how to get out of dangers or how to approach Him in devotional service. The Lord, however, asked Brahmā to give up his present body because it had created the demoniac principle. According to Śrīdhara Svāmī, Brahmā's constant dropping of his body does not refer to his actually giving up his body. Rather, he suggests that Brahmā gave up a particular mentality. Mind is the subtle body of the living entity. We may sometimes be absorbed in some thought which is sinful, but if we give up the sinful thought, it may be said that we give up the body. Brahmā's mind was not in correct order when he created the demons. It must have been full of passion because the entire creation was passionate; therefore such passionate sons were born. It follows that any father and mother should also be careful while begetting children. The mental condition of a child depends upon the mental status of his parents at the time he is conceived. According to the Vedic system, therefore, the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra, or the ceremony for giving birth to a child, is observed. Before begetting a child, one has to sanctify his perplexed mind. When the parents engage their minds in the lotus feet of the Lord and in such a state the child is born, naturally good devotee children come; when the society is full of such good population, there is no trouble from demoniac mentalities." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8edc4c76 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/20/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 3.20.29", + "devanagari": "तां क्वणच्चरणाम्भोजां मदविह्वललोचनाम्\nकांचीकलापविलसद्दुकूलच्छन्नरोधसम्", + "transliteration": "tāṁ kvaṇac-caraṇāmbhojāṁ\nmada-vihvala-locanām\nkāñcī-kalāpa-vilasad-\ndukūla-cchanna-rodhasam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "that body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kvaṇat", + "meanings": [ + "tinkling with ankle bells" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caraṇa-ambhojām", + "meanings": [ + "with lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mada", + "meanings": [ + "intoxication" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vihvala", + "meanings": [ + "overwhelmed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "locanām", + "meanings": [ + "with eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāñcī-kalāpa", + "meanings": [ + "with a girdle made of golden ornaments" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilasat", + "meanings": [ + "shining" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dukūla", + "meanings": [ + "by fine cloth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "channa", + "meanings": [ + "covered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rodhasam", + "meanings": [ + "having hips." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The body given up by Brahmā took the form of the evening twilight, when the day and night meet, a time which kindles passion.

A patient is advised by the experienced physician to refrain from ordinary enjoyment while in the diseased condition. A diseased person cannot enjoy anything; he has to restrain his enjoyment in order to get rid of the disease. Similarly, our material condition is a diseased condition. If one wants to enjoy real sense enjoyment, then one must get free of the entanglement of material existence. In spiritual life we can enjoy sense enjoyment which has no end. The difference between material and spiritual enjoyment is that material enjoyment is limited. Even if a man engages in material sex enjoyment, he cannot enjoy it for long.

The performance of śrāddha, or offering oblations with prasāda, is still current in India, especially at Gayā, where oblations are offered at the lotus feet of Viṣṇu in a celebrated temple. Because the Lord is thus pleased with the devotional service of the descendants, by His grace he liberates the condemned souls of forefathers who do not have gross bodies, and He favors them to again receive a gross body for development of spiritual advancement.", + "Unfortunately, by the influence of māyā, the conditioned soul employs the body he gets for sense gratification, forgetting that such an occupation may lead him to return again to an invisible body. The devotee of the Lord, or one who is in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, however, does not need to perform such ritualistic ceremonies as śrāddha because he is always pleasing the Supreme Lord; therefore his fathers and ancestors who might have been in difficulty are automatically relieved. The vivid example is Prahlāda Mahārāja. Prahlāda Mahārāja requested Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva to deliver his sinful father, who had so many times offended the lotus feet of the Lord. The Lord replied that in a family where a Vaiṣṇava like Prahlāda is born, not only his father but his father's father and their fathers—up to the fourteenth father back—are all automatically delivered. The conclusion, therefore, is that Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the sum total of all good work for the family, for society and for all living entities. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta the author says that a person fully conversant with Kṛṣṇa consciousness does not perform any rituals because he knows that simply by serving Kṛṣṇa in full Kṛṣṇa

There is no chronological history of all the Indian kings in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, but the deeds of the most important kings, such as Priyavrata and Uttānapāda, and many others like Lord Rāmacandra and Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, are recorded because the activities of such pious kings are worth hearing; people may benefit by studying their histories." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..020d0149 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 3.21.3", + "devanagari": "तस्य वै दुहिता ब्रह्मन्देवहूतीति विश्रुता\nपत्नी प्रजापतेर् उक्ता कर्दमस्य त्वयानघ", + "transliteration": "tasya vai duhitā brahman\ndevahūtīti viśrutā\npatnī prajāpater uktā\nkardamasya tvayānagha", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "of that Manu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duhitā", + "meanings": [ + "the daughter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahman", + "meanings": [ + "O holy brāhmaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devahūti", + "meanings": [ + "named Devahūti" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśrutā", + "meanings": [ + "was known" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patnī", + "meanings": [ + "wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajāpateḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the lord of created beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uktā", + "meanings": [ + "has been spoken of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kardamasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Kardama Muni" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvayā", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anagha", + "meanings": [ + "O sinless one." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O holy brāhmaṇa, O sinless one, you have spoken of his daughter, known by the name Devahūti, as the wife of the sage Kardama, the lord of created beings.", + "purport": [ + "Here we are speaking of Svāyambhuva Manu, but in Bhagavad-gītā we hear about Vaivasvata Manu.

The husband and wife, Kardama and Devahūti, were advanced in yoga practice; the husband was a mahā-yogī, great mystic, and the wife was a yoga-lakṣaṇa, or one advanced in yoga. They united and produced children. Formerly, after making their lives perfect, great sages and saintly persons used to beget children, otherwise they strictly observed the rules and regulations of celibacy. Brahmacarya (following the rules and regulations of celibacy) is required for perfection of self-realization and mystic power.

Therefore, whether one practices yoga or speculates and does research to find God, his efforts must be mixed with the process of devotion. Without devotion, nothing can be perfect. The target of perfection and realization is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In the Sixth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly said that one who constantly engages in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the topmost yogī. The Personality of Godhead, Hari, also fulfills the desires of His surrendered devotee. One has to surrender unto the lotus feet of the Personality of Godhead, Hari, or Kṛṣṇa, in order to achieve real success. Devotional service or engagement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the direct method, and all other methods, although recommended, are indirect. In this age of Kali the direct method is especially more feasible than the indirect because people are short-living, their intelligence is poor, and they are poverty-stricken and embarrassed by so many miserable disturbances. Lord Caitanya, therefore, has given the greatest boon: in this age one simply has to chant the holy name of God to attain perfection in spiritual life.", + "The words samprapede harim mean that in various ways Kardama Muni satisfied the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hari, by his devotional service. Devotional service is also expressed by the word kriyā-yogena. Kardama Muni not only meditated, but he also engaged in devotional service; to attain perfection in yoga practice or meditation, one must act in devotional service by hearing, chanting, remembering, etc. Remembering is meditation also. But who is to be remembered? One should remember the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Not only must one remember the Supreme Person; one must hear about the activities of the Lord and chant His glories. This information is in the authoritative scriptures. After engaging himself for 10,000 years in performing different types of devotional service, Kardama Muni attained the perfection of meditation, but that is not possible in this age of Kali, wherein it is very difficult to live for as much as 100 years. At the present moment, who will be successful in the rigid performance of the many yoga rules and regulations? Moreover, perfection is attained only by those who are surrendered souls. Where there is no mention of the Personality of Godhead, where is there surrender? And where there is no meditation upon the Personality of Godhead, where is the yoga practice? Unfortunately, people in this age, especially persons who are of a demoniac nature, want to be cheated. Thus the Supreme Personality of Godhead sends great cheaters who mislead them in the name of yoga and render their lives useless and doomed. In Bhagavad-gītā, therefore, it is clearly stated, in the Sixteenth Chapter, seventeenth verse, that rascals of self-made authority, being puffed up by illegally collected money, perform yoga without following the authoritative books.

In the Sixth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā, where yoga practice is described, this realization of the personal form of the Lord is called the perfection of yoga. After practicing the sitting postures and other regulative principles of the system, one finally reaches the stage of samādhi—absorption in the Supreme. In the samādhi stage one can see the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His partial form as Paramātmā, or as He is. Samādhi is described in authoritative yoga scriptures, such as the Patañjali-sūtras, to be a transcendental pleasure. The yoga system described in the books of Patañjali is authoritative, and the modern so-called yogīs who have manufactured their own ways, not consulting the authorities, are simply ludicrous. The Patañjali yoga system is called aṣṭāṅga-yoga. Sometimes impersonalists pollute the Patañjali yoga system because they are monists. Patañjali describes that the soul is transcendentally pleased when he meets the Supersoul and sees Him. If the existence of the Supersoul and the individual is admitted, then the impersonalist theory of monism is nullified. Therefore some impersonalists and void philosophers twist the Patañjali system in their own way and pollute the whole yoga process.", + "According to Patañjali, when one becomes free from all material desires he attains his real transcendental situation, and realization of that stage is called spiritual power. In material activities a person engages in the modes of material nature. The aspirations of such people are (1) to be religious, (2) to be economically enriched, (3) to be able to gratify the senses, and at last, (4) to become one with the Supreme. According to the monists, when a yogī becomes one with the Supreme and loses his individual existence, that is the highest stage, called kaivalya. But actually the stage of realization of the Personality of Godhead is kaivalya. The oneness of understanding that the Supreme Lord is fully spiritual and that in full spiritual realization one can understand what He is—the Supreme Personality of Godhead—is called kaivalya, or, in the language of Patañjali, realization of spiritual power. His proposal is that when one is freed from material desires and fixed in spiritual realization of the self and the Superself, that is called cit-śakti. In full spiritual realization there is a perception of spiritual happiness, and that happiness is described in Bhagavad-gītā as the supreme happiness, which is beyond the material senses. Trance is described to be of two kinds, samprajñāta and asamprajñāta, or mental speculation and self-realization. In samādhi or asamprajñāta, one can realize, by his spiritual senses, the spiritual form of the Lord. That is the ultimate goal of spiritual realization.", + "According to Patañjali, when one is fixed in constant realization of the supreme form of the Lord, that is the perfectional stage, as attained by Kardama Muni. Unless one attains this stage of perfection—beyond the perfection of the preliminaries of the yoga system—there is no ultimate realization. There are eight perfections in the aṣṭāṅga-yoga system. One who has attained them can become lighter than the lightest and greater than the greatest, and he can achieve whatever he likes. But even achieving such material success in yoga is not the perfection or the ultimate goal. The ultimate goal is described here: Kardama Muni saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His eternal form. Devotional service begins with the relationship of the individual soul and the Supreme Soul, or Kṛṣṇa and Kṛṣṇa's devotees, and when one attains it there is no question of falling down. If, through the yoga system, one wants to attain the stage of seeing the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face, but is attracted instead to attainment of some material power, then he is detoured from proceeding further. Material enjoyment, as encouraged by bogus yogīs, has nothing to do with the transcendental realization of spiritual happiness. Real devotees of bhakti-yoga accept only the material necessities of life absolutely needed to maintain the body and soul together; they refrain completely from all exaggerated material sense gratification.

The sense of sight, when engaged in seeing the beauty of the Lord, is perfected; the power to hear, when engaged in hearing the glories of the Lord, is perfected; the power to taste, when one enjoys by eating prasāda, is perfected.

Before marrying, one should select a wife of like disposition and not be enamored by so-called beauty or other attractive features for sense gratification. In the Bhāgavatam, Twelfth Canto, it is said that in the Kali-yuga marriage will be based in the consideration of sex life; as soon as there is deficiency in sex life, the question of divorce will arise.", + "Kardama Muni could have asked his benediction from Umā, for it is recommended in the scriptures that if anyone wants a good wife, he should worship Umā. But he preferred to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead because it is recommended in the Bhāgavatam that everyone, whether he is full of desires, has no desire, or desires liberation, should worship the Supreme Lord. Of these three classes of men, one tries to be happy by fulfillment of material desires, another wants to be happy by becoming one with the Supreme, and another, the perfect man, is a devotee. He does not want anything in return from the Personality of Godhead; he only wants to render transcendental loving service. In any case, everyone should worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead, for He will fulfill everyone's desire. The advantage of worshiping the Supreme Person is that even if one has desires for material enjoyment, if he worships Kṛṣṇa he will gradually become a pure devotee and have no more material hankering." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bffd2785 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,131 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 3.21.16", + "devanagari": "प्रजापतेस्ते वचसाधीश तन्त्या लोकः किलायं कामहतो ऽनुबद्धः\nअहं च लोकानुगतो वहामि बलिं च शुक्लानिमिषाय तुभ्यम्", + "transliteration": "prajāpates te vacasādhīśa tantyā\nlokaḥ kilāyaṁ kāma-hato 'nubaddhaḥ\nahaṁ ca lokānugato vahāmi\nbaliṁ ca śuklānimiṣāya tubhyam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "prajāpateḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who are the master of all living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "of You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vacasā", + "meanings": [ + "under the direction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhīśa", + "meanings": [ + "O my Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tantyā", + "meanings": [ + "by a rope" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "conditioned souls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kila", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayam", + "meanings": [ + "these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāma-hataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "conquered by lusty desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anubaddhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "are bound" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka-anugataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "following the conditioned souls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vahāmi", + "meanings": [ + "offer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balim", + "meanings": [ + "oblations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śukla", + "meanings": [ + "O embodiment of religion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "animiṣāya", + "meanings": [ + "existing as eternal time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tubhyam", + "meanings": [ + "to You." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O my Lord, You are the master and leader of all living entities.

It is everyone's duty, therefore, to enjoy according to his present position, but under the direction of the Lord or the Vedas. The Vedas are considered to be the direct words of the Lord. The Lord gives us the opportunity to enjoy material life as we want, and at the same time He gives directions for the modes and processes of abiding by the Vedas so that gradually one may be elevated to liberation from material bondage. The conditioned souls who have come to the material world to fulfill their desires to lord it over material nature are bound by the laws of nature.

Conditioned souls are under the spell of material energy or eternal time—past, present and future—but as soon as one engages in Kṛṣṇa consciousness he transcends the limits of past and present and becomes situated in the eternal activities of the soul. One has to act in terms of the Vedic injunctions in order to enjoy material life, but those who have taken to the devotional service of the Lord are not afraid of the regulations of this material world. Such devotees do not care for the conventions of material activities; they boldly take to that shelter which is like an umbrella against the sun of repeated birth and death.", + "Constant transmigration of the soul from one body to another is the cause of suffering in material existence. This conditional life in material existence is called saṁsāra. One may perform good work and take his birth in a very nice material condition, but the process under which birth and death takes place is like a terrible fire. Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura, in his prayer to the spiritual master, has described this. Saṁsāra, or the repetition of birth and death, is compared to a forest fire. A forest fire takes place automatically, without anyone's endeavor, by the friction of dried wood, and no fire department or sympathetic person can extinguish it. The raging forest fire can be extinguished only when there is a constant downpour of water from a cloud. The cloud is compared to the mercy of the spiritual master. By the grace of the spiritual master the cloud of the mercy of the Personality of Godhead is brought in, and then only, when the rains of Kṛṣṇa consciousness fall, can the fire of material existence be extinguished. This is also explained here. In order to find freedom from the stereotyped conditional life of material existence, one has to take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord, not in the manner in which the impersonalists indulge, but in devotional service, chanting and hearing of the activities of the Lord. Only then can one be freed from the actions and reactions of material existence. It is recommended here that one should give up the conditional life of this material world and the association of so-called civilized human beings who are simply following, in a polished way, the same stereotyped principles of eating, sleeping, defending and mating. Chanting and hearing of the glories of the Lord is described here as tvad-guṇa-vāda-sīdhu.

For material enjoyment He has prescribed so many ritualistic sacrificial performances in the Vedas, and thus people may take advantage of those instructions and enjoy material life in higher planets or in a noble aristocratic family. These processes are mentioned in the Vedas, and one can take advantage of them. It is similar with those who want to be liberated from this material world.", + "Unless one is disgusted with the enjoyment of this material world, he cannot aspire for liberation. Liberation is for one who is disgusted with material enjoyment. Vedānta-sūtra says, therefore, athāto brahma-jijñāsā: Those who have given up the attempt to be happy in this material world can inquire about the Absolute Truth. For those who want to know the Absolute Truth, the Vedānta-sūtra is available, as is Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the actual explanation of Vedānta-sūtra. Since Bhagavad-gītā is also Vedānta-sūtra, by understanding Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Vedānta-sūtra or Bhagavad-gītā one can obtain real knowledge. When one obtains real knowledge, he becomes theoretically one with the Supreme, and when he actually begins the service of Brahman, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he is not only liberated but situated in his spiritual life. Similarly, for those who want to lord it over material nature, there are so many departments of material enjoyment; material knowledge and material science are available, and the Lord provides for persons who want to enjoy them. The conclusion is that one should worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead for any benediction. The word kāma-varṣam is very significant, for it indicates that He satisfies the desires of anyone who approaches Him. But one who sincerely loves Kṛṣṇa and yet wants material enjoyment is in perplexity. Kṛṣṇa, being very kind towards him, gives him an opportunity to engage in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, and so he gradually forgets the hallucination." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..903976fc --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 3.21.22", + "devanagari": "ऋषिर् उवाच\nइत्य् अव्यलीकं प्रणुतो ऽब्जनाभस्तम् आबभाषे वचसामृतेन\nसुपर्णपक्षोपरि रोचमानः प्रेमस्मितोद्वीक्षणविभ्रमद्भ्रूः", + "transliteration": "ṛṣir uvāca\nity avyalīkaṁ praṇuto 'bja-nābhas\ntam ābabhāṣe vacasāmṛtena\nsuparṇa-pakṣopari rocamānaḥ\nprema-smitodvīkṣaṇa-vibhramad-bhrūḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ṛṣiḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "the great sage Maitreya said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avyalīkam", + "meanings": [ + "sincerely" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "having been praised" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abja-nābhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "to Kardama Muni" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ābabhāṣe", + "meanings": [ + "replied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vacasā", + "meanings": [ + "with words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amṛtena", + "meanings": [ + "as sweet as nectar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suparṇa", + "meanings": [ + "of Garuḍa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pakṣa", + "meanings": [ + "the shoulders" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upari", + "meanings": [ + "upon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rocamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "shining" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prema", + "meanings": [ + "of affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smita", + "meanings": [ + "with a smile" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvīkṣaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "looking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhramat", + "meanings": [ + "gracefully moving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrūḥ", + "meanings": [ + "eyebrows." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Maitreya resumed: Sincerely extolled in these words, Lord Viṣṇu, shining very beautifully on the shoulders of Garuḍa, replied with words as sweet as nectar.

Intercaste marriage, therefore, was not prohibited in the olden days, many millions of years ago, but there was a regular system of social behavior." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5d8aaab2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,79 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 3.21.29", + "devanagari": "या त आत्मभृतं वीर्यं नवधा प्रसविष्यति\nवीर्ये त्वदीये ऋषय आधास्यन्त्य् अंजसात्मनः", + "transliteration": "yā ta ātma-bhṛtaṁ vīryaṁ\nnavadhā prasaviṣyati\nvīrye tvadīye ṛṣaya\nādhāsyanty añjasātmanaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yā", + "meanings": [ + "she" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-bhṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "sown in her" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vīryam", + "meanings": [ + "the seed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nava-dhā", + "meanings": [ + "nine daughters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prasaviṣyati", + "meanings": [ + "will bring forth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vīrye tvadīye", + "meanings": [ + "in the daughters begotten by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādhāsyanti", + "meanings": [ + "will beget" + ] + }, + { + "word": "añjasā", + "meanings": [ + "in total" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "children." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "She will bring forth nine daughters from the seed sown in her by you, and through the daughters you beget, the sages will duly beget children.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/30.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/30.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..503980f0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/30.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 30, + "reference": "SB 3.21.30", + "devanagari": "त्वं च सम्यग् अनुष्ठाय निदेशं म उशत्तमः\nमयि तीर्थीकृताशेष क्रियार्थो मां प्रपत्स्यसे", + "transliteration": "tvaṁ ca samyag anuṣṭhāya\nnideśaṁ ma uśattamaḥ\nmayi tīrthīkṛtāśeṣa-\nkriyārtho māṁ prapatsyase", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samyak", + "meanings": [ + "properly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuṣṭhāya", + "meanings": [ + "having carried out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nideśam", + "meanings": [ + "command" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "My" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uśattamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "completely cleansed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mayi", + "meanings": [ + "unto Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīrthī-kṛta", + "meanings": [ + "having resigned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśeṣa", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kriyā", + "meanings": [ + "of actions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the fruits" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "to Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prapatsyase", + "meanings": [ + "you will attain." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "With your heart cleansed by properly carrying out My command, resigning to Me the fruits of all your acts, you will finally attain to Me.", + "purport": [ + "Here the words tīrthīkṛtāśeṣa-kriyārthaḥ are significant.

Giving assurance of safety to all, you will perceive your own self as well as all the universes in Me, and Myself in you.", + "purport": [ + "The simple process of self-realization for every living entity is described here. The first principle to be understood is that this world is a product of the supreme will. There is an identity of this world with the Supreme Lord. This identity is accepted in a misconceived way by the impersonalists; they say that the Supreme Absolute Truth, transforming Himself into the universe, loses His separate existence. Thus they accept the world and everything in it to be the Lord. That is pantheism, wherein everything is considered to be the Lord. This is the view of the impersonalist. But those who are personal devotees of the Lord take everything to be the property of the Supreme Lord. Everything, whatever we see, is the manifestation of the Supreme Lord; therefore, everything should be engaged in the service of the Lord. This is oneness. The difference between the impersonalist and the personalist is that the impersonalist does not accept the separate existence of the Lord, but the personalist accepts the Lord; he understands that although He distributes Himself in so many ways, He has His separate personal existence. This is described in Bhagavad-gītā: \"I am spread all over the universe in My impersonal form. Everything is resting on Me, but I am not present.\" There is a nice example regarding the sun and the sunshine. The sun, by its sunshine, is spread all over the universe, and all the planets rest on the sunshine. But all the planets are different from the sun planet; one cannot say that because the planets are resting on the sunshine, these planets are also the sun. Similarly, the impersonal or pantheistic view that everything is God is not a very intelligent proposal. The real position, as explained by the Lord Himself, is that although nothing can exist without Him, it is not a fact that everything is Him. He is different from everything. So here also the Lord says: \"You will see everything in the world to be nondifferent from Me.\" This means that everything should be considered a product of the Lord's energy, and therefore everything should be employed in the service of the Lord. One's energy should be utilized for one's self-interest. That is the perfection of the energy.", + "This energy can be utilized for real self-interest if one is compassionate. A person in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, a devotee of the Lord, is always compassionate. He is not satisfied that only he himself is a devotee, but he tries to distribute the knowledge of devotional service to everyone. There are many devotees of the Lord who faced many risks in distributing the devotional service of the Lord to people in general. That should be done.", + "It is also said that a person who goes to the temple of the Lord and worships with great devotion, but who does not show sympathy to people in general or show respect to other devotees, is considered to be a third-class devotee. The second-class devotee is he who is merciful and compassionate to the fallen soul. The second-class devotee is always cognizant of his position as an eternal servant of the Lord; he therefore makes friendships with devotees of the Lord, acts compassionately towards the general public in teaching them devotional service, and refuses to cooperate or associate with nondevotees. As long as one is not compassionate to people in general in his devotional service to the Lord, he is a third-class devotee. The first-class devotee gives assurance to every living being that there is no fear of this material existence: \"Let us live in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and conquer the nescience of material existence.\"", + "It is indicated here that Kardama Muni was directed by the Lord to be very compassionate and liberal in his householder life and to give assurance to the people in his renounced life. A sannyāsī, one in the renounced order of life, is meant to give enlightenment to the people. He should travel, going from home to home to enlighten. The householder, by the spell of māyā, becomes absorbed in family affairs and forgets his relationship with Kṛṣṇa. If he dies in forgetfulness, like the cats and dogs, then his life is spoiled. It is the duty of a sannyāsī, therefore, to go and awaken the forgetful souls with enlightenment of their eternal relationship with the Lord and to engage them in devotional service. The devotee should show mercy to the fallen souls and also give them the assurance of fearlessness. As soon as one becomes a devotee of the Lord, he is convinced that he is protected by the Lord. Fear itself is afraid of the Lord; therefore, what has he to do with fearfulness?", + "To award fearlessness to the common man is the greatest act of charity. A sannyāsī, or one who is in the renounced order of life, should wander from door to door, from village to village, from town to town and from country to country, all over the world as far as he is able to travel, and enlighten the householders about Kṛṣṇa consciousness. A person who is a householder but is initiated by a sannyāsī has the duty to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness at home; as far as possible, he should call his friends and neighbors to his house and hold classes in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Holding a class means chanting the holy name of Kṛṣṇa and speaking from Bhagavad-gītā or Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. There are immense literatures for spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and it is the duty of each and every householder to learn about Kṛṣṇa from his sannyāsī spiritual master. There is a division of labor in the Lord's service. The householder's duty is to earn money because a sannyāsī is not supposed to earn money; he is completely dependent on the householder. The householder should earn money by business or by profession and spend at least fifty percent of his income to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness; twenty-five percent he can spend for his family, and twenty-five percent he should save to meet emergencies. This example was shown by Rūpa Gosvāmī, so devotees should follow it.", + "Actually, to be one with the Supreme Lord means to be one with the interest of the Lord. Becoming one with the Supreme Lord does not imply becoming as great as the Supreme Lord. It is impossible. The part is never equal to the whole. The living entity is always a minute part. Therefore his oneness with the Lord is that he is interested in the one interest of the Lord. The Lord wants every living entity to always think about Him, to be His devotee and always worship Him. This is clearly stated in Bhagavad-gītā: man-manā bhava mad-bhaktaḥ. Kṛṣṇa wants everyone to always think of Him. Everyone should always offer obeisances to Kṛṣṇa. This is the will of the Supreme Lord, and devotees should try to fulfill His desire. Since the Lord is unlimited, His desire is also unlimited. There is no stoppage, and therefore the service of the devotee is also unlimited. In the transcendental world there is unlimited competition between the Lord and the servitor. The Lord wants to fulfill His desires unlimitedly, and the devotee also serves Him to fulfill His unlimited desires. There is an unlimited oneness of interest between the Lord and His devotee." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3b4d233a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 3.21.32", + "devanagari": "सहाहं स्वांशकलया त्वद्वीर्येण महामुने\nतव क्षेत्रे देवहूत्यां प्रणेष्ये तत्त्वसंहिताम्", + "transliteration": "sahāhaṁ svāṁśa-kalayā\ntvad-vīryeṇa mahā-mune\ntava kṣetre devahūtyāṁ\npraṇeṣye tattva-saṁhitām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saha", + "meanings": [ + "with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-aṁśa-kalayā", + "meanings": [ + "My own plenary portion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvat-vīryeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by your semen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-mune", + "meanings": [ + "O great sage" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tava kṣetre", + "meanings": [ + "in your wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devahūtyām", + "meanings": [ + "in Devahūti" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇeṣye", + "meanings": [ + "I shall instruct" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tattva", + "meanings": [ + "of the ultimate principles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁhitām", + "meanings": [ + "the doctrine." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O great sage, I shall manifest My own plenary portion through your wife, Devahūti, along with your nine daughters, and I shall instruct her in the system of philosophy that deals with the ultimate principles or categories.", + "purport": [ + "Herein the word svāṁśa-kalayā indicates that the Lord would appear as the son of Devahūti and Kardama Muni as Kapiladeva, the first propounder of the sāṅkhya philosophy which is mentioned here as tattva-saṁhitā. The Lord foretold to Kardama Muni that He would appear in His incarnation of Kapiladeva and would propagate the philosophy of sāṅkhya. Sāṅkhya philosophy is very well known in the world as propagated by another Kapiladeva, but that sāṅkhya philosophy is different from the sāṅkhya which was propounded by the Lord Himself. There are two kinds of sāṅkhya philosophy: one is godless sāṅkhya philosophy, another godly sāṅkhya philosophy. The sāṅkhya propagated by Kapiladeva, son of Devahūti, is godly philosophy.", + "There are different manifestations of the Lord. He is one, but He has become many. He divides Himself into two different expansions, one called kalā and the other vibhinnāṁśa. Ordinary living entities are called vibhinnāṁśa expansions, and the unlimited expansions of viṣṇu-tattva, such as Vāmana, Govinda, Nārāyaṇa, Pradyumna, Vāsudeva and Ananta, are called svāṁśa-kalā. Svāṁśa refers to a direct expansion, and kalā denotes an expansion from the expansion of the original Lord. Baladeva is an expansion of Kṛṣṇa, and from Baladeva the next expansion is Saṅkarṣaṇa; thus Saṅkarṣaṇa is kalā, but Baladeva is svāṁśa. There is no difference however, among Them. This is very nicely explained in the Brahma-saṁhitā (Bs. 5.46): dīpārcir eva hi daśāntaram abhyupetya. With one candle one may light a second candle, with the second a third and then a fourth, and in this way one can light up thousands of candles, and no candle is inferior to another in distributing light. Every candle has the full potential candle power, but there is still the distinction that one candle is the first, another the second, another the third and another the fourth. Similarly, there is no difference between the immediate expansion of the Lord and His secondary expansion. The Lord's names are considered in exactly the same way; since the Lord is absolute, His name, His form, His pastimes, His paraphernalia and His quality all have the same potency. In the absolute world, the name Kṛṣṇa is the transcendental sound representation of the Lord. There is no potential difference between His quality, name, form, etc. If we chant the name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa, that has as much potency as the Lord Himself. There is no potential difference between the form of the Lord whom we worship and the form of the Lord in the temple. One should not think that he is worshiping a doll or statue of the Lord, even if others consider it to be a statue. Because there is no potential difference, one gets the same result by worshiping the statue of the Lord or the Lord Himself.

There are many persons who are trying to attain perfection by striving for liberation from material bondage, and those who are actually liberated are called brahma-bhūta or siddha. Only the siddhas, or persons liberated from material bondage, can become devotees.

In the morning, the first duty of a brahmacārī seeking spiritual elevation is huta-hutāśana, to offer sacrificial oblations to the Supreme Lord. Those engaged in brahmacarya cannot sleep until seven or nine o'clock in the morning. They must rise early in the morning, at least one and a half hours before the sun rises, and offer oblations, or in this age, they must chant the holy name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa. As referred to by Lord Caitanya, kalau nāsty eva nāsty eva nāsty eva gatir anyathā: There is no other alternative, no other alternative, no other alternative, in this age, to chanting the holy name of the Lord. The brahmacārī must rise early in the morning and, after placing himself, should chant the holy name of the Lord. From the very features of the sage, it appeared that he had undergone great austerities; that is the sign of one observing brahmacarya, the vow of celibacy. If one lives otherwise, it will be manifest in the lust visible in his face and body. The word vidyotamānam indicates that the brahmacārī feature showed in his body. That is the certificate that one has undergone great austerity in yoga. A drunkard or smoker or sex-monger can never be eligible to practice yoga. Generally yogīs look very skinny because of their not being comfortably situated, but Kardama Muni was not emaciated because he had seen the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face. Here the word snigdhāpāṅgāvalokanāt means that he was fortunate enough to see the Supreme Lord face to face. He looked healthy because he had directly received the nectarean sound vibrations from the lotus lips of the Personality of Godhead. Similarly, one who hears the transcendental sound vibration of the holy name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa, also improves in health. We have actually seen that many brahmacārīs and gṛhasthas connected with the International Society for Krishna Consciousness have improved in health, and a luster has come to their faces. It is essential that a brahmacārī engaged in spiritual advancement look very healthy and lustrous. The comparison of the sage to an unpolished gem is very appropriate. Even if a gem just taken from a mine looks unpolished, the luster of the gem cannot be stopped. Similarly, although Kardama was not properly dressed and his body was not properly cleansed, his overall appearance was gemlike." + ], + "verse_end": 47 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/48.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/48.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1267e838 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/48.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 48, + "reference": "SB 3.21.48", + "devanagari": "अथोटजम् उपायातं नृदेवं प्रणतं पुरः\nसपर्यया पर्यगृह्णात्प्रतिनन्द्यानुरूपया", + "transliteration": "athoṭajam upāyātaṁ\nnṛdevaṁ praṇataṁ puraḥ\nsaparyayā paryagṛhṇāt\npratinandyānurūpayā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uṭajam", + "meanings": [ + "the hermitage" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upāyātam", + "meanings": [ + "approached" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛdevam", + "meanings": [ + "the monarch" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇatam", + "meanings": [ + "bowed down" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in front" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saparyayā", + "meanings": [ + "with honor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paryagṛhṇāt", + "meanings": [ + "received him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratinandya", + "meanings": [ + "greeting him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anurūpayā", + "meanings": [ + "befitting the King's position." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Seeing that the monarch had come to his hermitage and was bowing before him, the sage greeted him with benediction and received him with due honor.", + "purport": [ + "Emperor Svāyambhuva Manu not only approached the cottage of dried leaves possessed by the hermit Kardama, but he offered his respectful obeisances unto him.

Here two terms are clearly mentioned: vadhāya, for the purpose of killing, and asatām, those who are undesirable. The protecting energy of the king is supposed to be the energy of the Supreme Lord. In Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 4.8) the Lord says, paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām. The Lord descends to give protection to the pious and to kill the demons. The potency, therefore, to give protection to the pious and kill the demons or undesirables is directly an energy from the Supreme Lord, and the king or the chief executive of the state is supposed to possess such energy.

These social orders, according to different grades of work and qualification, are described in Bhagavad-gītā. Unfortunately, for want of proper protection by responsible kings, the system of social and spiritual orders has now become a hereditary caste system. But this is not the actual system. Human society means that society which is making progress toward spiritual realization. The most advanced human society was known as ārya; ārya refers to those who are advancing. So the question is, \"Which society is advancing?\" Advancement does not mean creating material \"necessities\" unnecessarily and thus wasting human energy in aggravation over so-called material comforts. Real advancement is advancement towards spiritual realization, and the community which acted towards this end was known as the Āryan civilization. The intelligent men, the brāhmaṇas, as exemplified by Kardama Muni, were engaged in advancing the spiritual cause, and kṣatriyas like Emperor Svāyambhuva used to rule the country and insure that all facilities for spiritual realization were nicely provided. It is the duty of the king to travel all over the country and see that everything is in order.

The Lord says that the institution of four varṇas and four āśramas \"is created by Me.\" Anything created by the Lord cannot be closed or covered. The divisions of varṇas and āśramas will continue to exist, either in their original form or in degraded form, but because they are created by the Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they cannot be extinguished. They are like the sun, a creation of God, and therefore will remain. Either covered by clouds or in a clear sky, the sun will continue to exist. Similarly, when the varṇāśrama system becomes degraded, it appears as a hereditary caste system, but in every society there is an intelligent class of men, a martial class, a mercantile class and a laborer class. When they are regulated for cooperation among communities according to the Vedic principles, then there is peace and spiritual advancement. But when there is hatred and malpractice and mutual mistrust in the caste system, the whole system becomes degraded, and, as stated herein, it creates a deplorable state. At the present moment, the entire world is in this deplorable condition because of giving rights to so many interests. This is due to the degradation of the four castes of varṇas and āśramas." + ], + "verse_end": 54 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/55.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/55.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a060bd37 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/21/verses/55.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 55, + "reference": "SB 3.21.55", + "devanagari": "अधर्मश्च समेधेत लोलुपैर्व्यंकुशैर्नृभिः\nशयाने त्वयि लोको ऽयं दस्युग्रस्तो विनंक्ष्यति", + "transliteration": "adharmaś ca samedheta\nlolupair vyaṅkuśair nṛbhiḥ\nśayāne tvayi loko 'yaṁ\ndasyu-grasto vinaṅkṣyati", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "adharmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unrighteousness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samedheta", + "meanings": [ + "would flourish" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lolupaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "simply hankering after money" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyaṅkuśaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "uncontrolled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śayāne tvayi", + "meanings": [ + "when you lie down for rest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dasyu", + "meanings": [ + "by the miscreants" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grastaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attacked" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vinaṅkṣyati", + "meanings": [ + "it will perish." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "If you gave up all thought of the world's situation, unrighteousness would flourish, for men who hanker only after money would be unopposed.

Somehow or other, if one meets a saintly person and achieves his favor, then the entire mission of his human life is fulfilled. In our personal experience we have actual proof of this statement of Manu. Once we had the opportunity to meet Viṣṇupāda Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja, and on first sight he requested this humble self to preach his message in the Western countries. There was no preparation for this, but somehow or other he desired it, and by his grace we are now engaged in executing his order, which has given us a transcendental occupation and has saved and liberated us from the occupation of material activities. Thus it is actually a fact that if one meets a saintly person completely engaged in transcendental duties and achieves his favor, then one's life mission becomes complete. What is not possible to achieve in thousands of lives can be achieved in one moment if there is an opportunity to meet a saintly person. It is therefore enjoined in Vedic literature that one should always try to associate with saintly persons and try to disassociate oneself from the common man because by one word of a saintly person one can be liberated from material entanglement. A saintly person has the power, because of his spiritual advancement, to give immediate liberation to the conditioned soul. Here Manu admits that all his doubts are now over because Kardama has very kindly described the different duties of individual souls." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ce23e287 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 3.22.6", + "devanagari": "दिष्ट्या मे भगवान्दृष्टो दुर्दर्शो यो ऽकृतात्मनाम्\nदिष्ट्या पादरजः स्पृष्टं शीर्ष्णा मे भवतः शिवम्", + "transliteration": "diṣṭyā me bhagavān dṛṣṭo\ndurdarśo yo 'kṛtātmanām\ndiṣṭyā pāda-rajaḥ spṛṣṭaṁ\nśīrṣṇā me bhavataḥ śivam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "diṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "by good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "all-powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "is seen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durdarśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "not easily seen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṛta-ātmanām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who have not controlled the mind and senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "diṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "by my good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pādarajaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the dust of the feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "spṛṣṭam", + "meanings": [ + "is touched" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śīrṣṇā", + "meanings": [ + "by the head" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śivam", + "meanings": [ + "causing all auspiciousness." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "It is my good fortune that I have been able to see you because you cannot easily be seen by persons who have not subdued the mind or controlled the senses.

As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, mahātmānas tu: Those who are great souls are under the spell of spiritual energy, and their symptom is that they fully engage in Kṛṣṇa consciousness for the service of the Lord.

One becomes a mahat by the grace of his mahat spiritual master. If one takes shelter of the lotus feet of a great soul, there is every possibility of his also becoming a great soul. When Mahārāja Rahūgaṇa asked Jaḍa Bharata about his wonderful achievement of spiritual success, he replied to the King that spiritual success is not possible simply by following the rituals of religion or simply by converting oneself into a sannyāsī or offering sacrifices as recommended in the scriptures. These methods are undoubtedly helpful for spiritual realization, but the real effect is brought about by the grace of a mahātmā. In Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura's eight stanzas of prayer to the spiritual master, it is clearly stated that simply by satisfying the spiritual master one can achieve the supreme success in life, and in spite of executing all ritualistic performances, if one cannot satisfy the spiritual master, he has no access to spiritual perfection. Here the word akṛtātmanām is very significant. Ātmā means body, soul, or mind, and akṛtātmā means the common man, who cannot control the senses or the mind. Because the common man is unable to control the senses and the mind, it is therefore his duty to seek the shelter of a great soul or a great devotee of the Lord and just try to please him. That will make his life perfect. A common man cannot rise to the topmost stage of spiritual perfection simply by following the rituals and religious principles. He has to take shelter of a bona fide spiritual master and work under his direction faithfully and sincerely; then he becomes perfect, without a doubt." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..71b5922b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,101 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 3.22.7", + "devanagari": "दिष्ट्या त्वयानुशिष्टो ऽहं कृतश्चानुग्रहो महान्\nअपावृतैः कर्णरन्ध्रैर्जुष्टा दिष्ट्योशतीर्गिरः", + "transliteration": "diṣṭyā tvayānuśiṣṭo 'haṁ\nkṛtaś cānugraho mahān\napāvṛtaiḥ karṇa-randhrair\njuṣṭā diṣṭyośatīr giraḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "diṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "luckily" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvayā", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśiṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "instructed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "bestowed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anugrahaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "favor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahān", + "meanings": [ + "great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apāvṛtaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "open" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karṇa-randhraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the holes of the ears" + ] + }, + { + "word": "juṣṭāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "received" + ] + }, + { + "word": "diṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "by good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uśatīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "giraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "words." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "I have fortunately been instructed by you, and thus great favor has been bestowed upon me.

A bona fide spiritual master or saintly person always desires to elevate a common man who comes to him. Because everyone is under the delusion of māyā and is forgetful of his prime duty, Kṛṣṇa consciousness, a saintly person always desires that everyone become a saintly person. It is the function of a saintly person to invoke Kṛṣṇa consciousness in every forgetful common man.", + "Manu said that since he was advised and instructed by Kardama Muni, he was very much favored. He considered himself lucky to receive the message by aural reception. It is especially mentioned here that one should be very inquisitive to hear with open ears from the authorized source of the bona fide spiritual master. How is one to receive? One should receive the transcendental message by aural reception. The word karṇa-randhraiḥ means through the holes of the ears. The favor of the spiritual master is not received through any other part of the body but the ears. This does not mean, however, that the spiritual master gives a particular type of mantra through the ears in exchange for some dollars and if the man meditates on that then he achieves perfection and becomes God within six months. Such reception through the ears is bogus. The real fact is that a bona fide spiritual master knows the nature of a particular man and what sort of duties he can perform in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and he instructs him in that way. He instructs him through the ear, not privately, but publicly. \"You are fit for such and such work in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. You can act in this way.\" One person is advised to act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness by working in the Deities' room, another is advised to act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness by performing editorial work, another is advised to do preaching work, and another is advised to carry out Kṛṣṇa consciousness in the cooking department. There are different departments of activity in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and a spiritual master, knowing the particular ability of a particular man, trains him in such a way that by his tendency to act he becomes perfect. Bhagavad-gītā makes it clear that one can attain the highest perfection of spiritual life simply by offering service according to his ability, just as Arjuna served Kṛṣṇa by his ability in the military art. Arjuna offered his service fully as a military man, and he became perfect. Similarly, an artist can attain perfection simply by performing artistic work under the direction of the spiritual master. If one is a literary man, he can write articles and poetry for the service of the Lord under the direction of the spiritual master. One has to receive the message of the spiritual master regarding how to act in one's capacity, for the spiritual master is expert in giving such instructions.", + "This combination, the instruction of the spiritual master and the faithful execution of the instruction by the disciple, makes the entire process perfect. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura describes in his explanation of the verse in Bhagavad-gītā, vyavasāyātmikā buddhiḥ, that one who wants to be certain to achieve spiritual success must take the instruction from the spiritual master as to what his particular function is. He should faithfully try to execute that particular instruction and should consider that his life and soul. The faithful execution of the instruction which he receives from the spiritual master is the only duty of a disciple, and that will bring him perfection. One should be very careful to receive the message from the spiritual master through the ears and execute it faithfully.

There are other kinds of marriage, such as gāndharva marriage and marriage by love, which are also accepted as marriage. Even if one is forcibly kidnapped and later on accepted as a wife, that is also accepted.

As stated in the Vedic scriptures, the first-class process is to call the bridegroom to the home of the bride and hand her to him in charity with a dowry of necessary ornaments, gold, furniture and other household paraphernalia. This form of marriage is prevalent among higher class Hindus even today and is declared in the śāstras to confer great religious merit on the bride's father. To give a daughter in charity to a suitable son-in-law is considered to be one of the pious activities of a householder. There are eight forms of marriage mentioned in the scripture Manu-smṛti, but only one process of marriage, brāhma or rājasika marriage, is now current. Other kinds of marriage, by love, by exchange of garlands or by kidnapping the bride, are now forbidden in this Kali Age. Formerly, kṣatriyas would, at their pleasure, kidnap a princess from another royal house, and there would be a fight between the kṣatriya and the girl's family; then, if the kidnapper was the winner, the girl would be offered to him for marriage. Even Kṛṣṇa married Rukmiṇī by that process, and some of His sons and grandsons also married by kidnapping. Kṛṣṇa's grandson kidnapped Duryodhana's daughter, which caused a fight between the Kuru and Yadu families. Afterwards, an adjustment was made by the elderly members of the Kuru family. Such marriages were current in bygone ages, but at the present moment they are not possible because the strict principles of kṣatriya life have practically been abolished. Since India has become dependent on foreign countries, the particular influences of her social orders have been lost; now, according to the scriptures, everyone is a śūdra. The so-called brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and vaiśyas have forgotten their traditional activities, and in the absence of these activities they are called śūdras.

According to Vedic principles, the first part of life should be utilized in brahmacarya for the development of character and spiritual qualities. In the next part of life, one may accept a wife and beget children, but one should not beget children like cats and dogs.", + "Kardama Muni desired to beget a child who would be a ray of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One should beget a child who can perform the duties of Viṣṇu, otherwise there is no need to produce children. There are two kinds of children born of good fathers: one is educated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness so that he can be delivered from the clutches of māyā in that very life, and the other is a ray of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and teaches the world the ultimate goal of life. As will be described in later chapters, Kardama Muni begot such a child—Kapila, the incarnation of the Personality of Godhead who enunciated the philosophy of sāṅkhya. Great householders pray to God to send His representative so that there may be an auspicious movement in human society. This is one reason to beget a child. Another reason is that a highly enlightened parent can train a child in Kṛṣṇa consciousness so that the child will not have to come back again to this miserable world. Parents should see to it that the child born of them does not enter the womb of a mother again. Unless one can train a child for liberation in that life, there is no need to marry or produce children. If human society produces children like cats and dogs for the disturbance of social order, then the world becomes hellish, as it has in this age of Kali. In this age, neither parents nor their children are trained; both are animalistic and simply eat, sleep, mate, defend and gratify their senses. This disorder in social life cannot bring peace to human society. Kardama Muni explains beforehand that he would not associate with the girl Devahūti for the whole duration of his life. He would simply associate with her until she had a child. In other words, sex life should be utilized only to produce a nice child, not for any other purpose. Human life is especially meant for complete devotion to the service of the Lord. That is the philosophy of Lord Caitanya.", + "After fulfilling his responsibility to produce a nice child, one should take sannyāsa and engage in the perfectional paramahaṁsa stage. Paramahaṁsa refers to the most highly elevated perfectional stage of life. There are four stages within sannyāsa life, and paramahaṁsa is the highest order. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is called the Paramahaṁsa-saṁhitā, the treatise for the highest class of human beings. The paramahaṁsa is free from envy. In other stages, even in the householder stage of life, there is competition and envy, but since the activities of the human being in the paramahaṁsa stage are completely engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness or devotional service, there is no scope for envy. In the same order as Kardama Muni, about 100 years ago, Ṭhākura Bhaktivinoda also wanted to beget a child who could preach the philosophy and teaching of Lord Caitanya to the fullest extent. By his prayers to the Lord he had as his child Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Mahārāja, who at the present moment is preaching the philosophy of Lord Caitanya throughout the entire world through his bona fide disciples." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..0b252bc0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 3.22.20", + "devanagari": "यतो ऽभवद्विश्वम् इदं विचित्रं संस्थास्यते यत्र च वावतिष्ठते\nप्रजापतीनां पतिर् एष मह्यं परं प्रमाणं भगवान् अनन्तः", + "transliteration": "yato 'bhavad viśvam idaṁ vicitraṁ\nsaṁsthāsyate yatra ca vāvatiṣṭhate\nprajāpatīnāṁ patir eṣa mahyaṁ\nparaṁ pramāṇaṁ bhagavān anantaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhavat", + "meanings": [ + "emanated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvam", + "meanings": [ + "creation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vicitram", + "meanings": [ + "wonderful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsthāsyate", + "meanings": [ + "will dissolve" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "in whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avatiṣṭhate", + "meanings": [ + "presently exists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajā-patīnām", + "meanings": [ + "of the prajāpatis" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahyam", + "meanings": [ + "to me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "highest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pramāṇam", + "meanings": [ + "authority" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anantaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unlimited." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The highest authority for me is the unlimited Supreme Personality of Godhead, from whom this wonderful creation emanates and in whom its sustenance and dissolution rest.

But Kardama Muni said that although his father was Prajāpati, who desired him to produce children, actually his origin was the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu, because Viṣṇu is the origin of everything; He is the actual creator of this universe, He is the actual maintainer, and when everything is annihilated, it rests in Him only. That is the conclusion of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. For creation, maintenance and annihilation there are the three deities Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Maheśvara (Śiva), but Brahmā and Maheśvara are qualitative expansions of Viṣṇu. Viṣṇu is the central figure. Viṣṇu, therefore, takes charge of maintenance. No one can maintain the whole creation but Him. There are innumerable entities, and they have innumerable demands; no one but Viṣṇu can fulfill the innumerable demands of all the innumerable living entities. Brahmā is ordered to create, and Śiva is ordered to annihilate. The middle function, maintenance, is taken charge of by Viṣṇu. Kardama Muni knew very well, by his power in progressive spiritual life, that Viṣṇu, the Personality of Godhead, was his worshipable Deity. Whatever Viṣṇu desired was his duty, and nothing else. He was not prepared to beget a number of children. He would beget only one child, who would help the mission of Viṣṇu. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, whenever there is a discrepancy in the discharge of religious principles, the Lord descends on the surface of the earth to protect religious principles and to annihilate the miscreants.", + "Marrying and begetting a child is considered to liquidate one's debts to the family in which one is born. There are many debts which are imposed upon a child just after his birth. There are debts to the family in which one is born, debts to the demigods, debts to the pitās, debts to the ṛṣis, etc. But if someone engages only in the service of the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, who is actually worshipable, then even without trying to liquidate other debts, one becomes free from all obligations. Kardama Muni preferred to devote his life as a servant of the Lord in paramahaṁsa knowledge and to beget a child only for that purpose, not to beget numberless children to fill up the vacancies in the universe." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e0f70389 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 3.22.21", + "devanagari": "मैत्रेय उवाच\nस उग्रधन्वन्न् इयद् एवाबभाषे आसीच्च तूष्णीम् अरविन्दनाभम्\nधियोपगृह्णन्स्मितशोभितेन मुखेन चेतो लुलुभे देवहूत्याः", + "transliteration": "maitreya uvāca\nsa ugradhanvann iyad evābabhāṣe\nāsīc ca tūṣṇīm aravinda-nābham\ndhiyopagṛhṇan smita-śobhitena\nmukhena ceto lulubhe devahūtyāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "maitreyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great sage Maitreya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he (Kardama)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ugra-dhanvan", + "meanings": [ + "O great warrior Vidura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iyat", + "meanings": [ + "this much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "only" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ābabhāṣe", + "meanings": [ + "spoke" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsīt", + "meanings": [ + "became" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tūṣṇīm", + "meanings": [ + "silent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aravinda-nābham", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Viṣṇu (whose navel is adorned by a lotus)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiyā", + "meanings": [ + "by thought" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upagṛhṇan", + "meanings": [ + "seizing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smita-śobhitena", + "meanings": [ + "beautified by his smile" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukhena", + "meanings": [ + "by his face" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cetaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lulubhe", + "meanings": [ + "was captivated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devahūtyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of Devahūti." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Maitreya said: O great warrior Vidura, the sage Kardama said this much only and then became silent, thinking of his worshipable Lord Viṣṇu, who has a lotus on His navel.

This custom is still prevalent in India in some of the royal families and temples. Professional musicians sing with shanais, and the sleeping members of the house gradually get up from their beds in a pleasing atmosphere. During bedtime also the singers sing songs in relationship with the pastimes of the Lord, with shanai accompaniment, and the householders gradually fall asleep remembering the glories of the Lord. In every house, in addition to the singing program, there is an arrangement for Bhāgavatam lectures in the evening; family members sit down, hold Hare Kṛṣṇa kīrtana, hear narrations from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Bhagavad-gītā and enjoy music before going to bed. The atmosphere created by this saṅkīrtana movement lives in their hearts, and while sleeping they also dream of the singing and glorification of the Lord. In such a way perfection of Kṛṣṇa consciousness can be attained. This practice is very old, as learned from this verse of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam; millions of years ago, Svāyambhuva Manu used to avail himself of this opportunity to live householder life in the peace and prosperity of a Kṛṣṇa consciousness atmosphere.", + "As far as temples are concerned, in each and every royal palace or rich man's house, inevitably there is a nice temple, and the members of the household rise early in the morning and go to the temple to see the maṅgalārātrika ceremony. The maṅgalārātrika ceremony is the first worship of the morning. In the ārātrika ceremony a light is offered in circles before the Deities with a conchshell and flowers and a fan. The Lord is supposed to rise early in the morning and take some light refreshment and give audience to the devotees. The devotees then go back to the house or sing the glories of the Lord in the temple. The early morning ceremony still takes place in Indian temples and palaces. Temples are meant for the assembly of the general public. Temples within palaces are especially for the royal families, but in many of these palace temples the public is also allowed to visit. The temple of the King of Jaipur is situated within the palace, but the public is allowed to assemble; if one goes there, he will see that the temple is always crowded with at least 500 devotees. After the maṅgalārātrika ceremony they sit down together and sing the glories of the Lord with musical instruments and thus enjoy life. Temple worship by the royal family is also mentioned in Bhagavad-gītā, where it is stated that those who fail to achieve success in the bhakti-yoga principles within one life are given a chance to take birth in the next life in the family of rich men or in a royal family or family of learned brāhmaṇas or devotees. If anyone gets the opportunity to take birth in these families, he can achieve the facilities of a Kṛṣṇa conscious atmosphere without difficulty. A child born in that Kṛṣṇa atmosphere is sure to develop Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

But one who is Kṛṣṇa conscious is above these three modes of material nature. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā that anyone who engages in devotional service to the Lord automatically becomes transcendental to the three destinations of material nature and is situated in the brahma-bhūta, or self-realized, stage. Although Svāyambhuva Manu, the ruler of this material world, appeared to be absorbed in material happiness, he was neither in the mode of goodness, nor in the modes of passion or ignorance, but in the transcendental stage.", + "Therefore, one who fully engages in devotional service is always liberated. Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura, a great devotee of the Lord, stated: \"If I have unflinching devotion to the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, then Mother Liberation is always engaged in my service. Complete perfection of material enjoyment, religion and economic development are at my command.\" People are after dharma, artha, kāma and mokṣa. Generally they perform religious activities to achieve some material gain, and they engage in material activity for sense gratification. After being frustrated in material sense gratification, one wants to be liberated and become one with the Absolute Truth. These four principles form the transcendental path for the less intelligent. Those who are actually intelligent engage in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, not caring for these four principles of the transcendental method. They at once elevate themselves to the transcendental platform which is above liberation. Liberation is not a very great achievement for a devotee, to say nothing of the results of ritualistic performances in religion, economic development, or the materialistic life of sense gratification. Devotees do not care for these. They are situated always on the transcendental platform of the brahma-bhūta stage of self-realization." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f0426a8d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/22/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 3.22.37", + "devanagari": "शारीरा मानसा दिव्या वैयासे ये च मानुषाः\nभौतिकाश्च कथं क्लेशा बाधन्ते हरिसंश्रयम्", + "transliteration": "śārīrā mānasā divyā\nvaiyāse ye ca mānuṣāḥ\nbhautikāś ca kathaṁ kleśā\nbādhante hari-saṁśrayam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śārīrāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pertaining to the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mānasāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pertaining to the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pertaining to supernatural powers (demigods)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiyāse", + "meanings": [ + "O Vidura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mānuṣāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pertaining to other men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhautikāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pertaining to other living beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "how" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kleśāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "miseries" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bādhante", + "meanings": [ + "can trouble" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hari-saṁśrayam", + "meanings": [ + "one who has taken shelter of Lord Kṛṣṇa." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Therefore, O Vidura, how can persons completely under the shelter of Lord Kṛṣṇa in devotional service be put into miseries pertaining to the body, the mind, nature, and other men and living creatures?", + "purport": [ + "Every living entity within this material world is always afflicted by some kind of miseries, pertaining either to the body, the mind, or natural disturbances.

Bhavānī means the wife of Bhava, or Lord Śiva. Bhavānī, or Pārvatī, the daughter of the King of the Himalayas, selected Lord Śiva, who appears to be just like a beggar, as her husband. In spite of her being a princess, she undertook all kinds of tribulations to associate with Lord Śiva, who did not even have a house but was sitting underneath the trees and passing his time in meditation. Although Bhavānī was the daughter of a very great king, she used to serve Lord Śiva just like a poor woman. Similarly, Devahūti was the daughter of an emperor, Svāyambhuva Manu, yet she preferred to accept Kardama Muni as her husband. She served him with great love and affection, and she knew how to please him. Therefore, she is designated here as sādhvī, which means a chaste, faithful wife. Her rare example is the ideal of Vedic civilization. Every woman is expected to be as good and chaste as Devahūti or Bhavānī. Today in Hindu society, unmarried girls are still taught to worship Lord Śiva with the idea that they may get husbands like him. Lord Śiva is the ideal husband, not in the sense of riches or sense gratification, but because he is the greatest of all devotees. Vaiṣṇavānāṁ yathā śambhuḥ: Śambhu, or Lord Śiva, is the ideal Vaiṣṇava. He constantly meditates upon Lord Rāma and chants Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. Lord Śiva has a Vaiṣṇava sampradāya which is called the Viṣṇusvāmī-sampradāya. Unmarried girls worship Lord Śiva so that they can expect a husband who is as good a Vaiṣṇava as he. The girls are not taught to select a husband who is very rich or very opulent for material sense gratification, but if a girl is fortunate enough to get a husband as good as Lord Śiva in devotional service, then her life becomes perfect. The wife is dependent on the husband, and if the husband is a Vaiṣṇava, then naturally she shares the devotional service of the husband because she renders him service.

The husband is a very intimate friend; therefore, the wife must render service just like an intimate friend, and at the same time she must understand that the husband is superior in position, and thus she must offer him all respect. A man's psychology and woman's psychology are different. As constituted by bodily frame, a man always wants to be superior to his wife, and a woman, as bodily constituted, is naturally inferior to her husband. Thus the natural instinct is that the husband wants to post himself as superior to the wife, and this must be observed. Even if there is some wrong on the part of the husband, the wife must tolerate it, and thus there will be no misunderstanding between husband and wife. Viśrambheṇa means with intimacy, but it must not be familiarity that breeds contempt. According to the Vedic civilization, a wife cannot call her husband by name. In the present civilization the wife calls her husband by name, but in Hindu civilization she does not. Thus the inferiority and superiority complexes are recognized. Damena ca: a wife has to learn to control herself even if there is a misunderstanding. Sauhṛdena vācā madhurayā means always desiring good for the husband and speaking to him with sweet words.

Kardama Muni is great by spiritual qualification. Such a husband is called tejīyāṁsam, most powerful. Although a wife may be equal to her husband in advancement in spiritual consciousness, she should not be vainly proud. Sometimes it happens that the wife comes from a very rich family, as did Devahūti, the daughter of Emperor Svāyambhuva Manu. She could have been very proud of her parentage, but that is forbidden. The wife should not be proud of her parental position. She must always be submissive to the husband and must give up all vanity. As soon as the wife becomes proud of her parentage, it creates great misunderstanding between the husband and wife, and their nuptial life is ruined. Devahūti was very careful about that, and therefore it is said here that she gave up pride completely. Devahūti was not unfaithful. The most sinful activity for a wife is to accept another husband or another lover. Cāṇakya Paṇḍita has described four kinds of enemies at home. If the father is in debt he is considered to be an enemy; if the mother has selected another husband in the presence of her grown-up children, she is considered to be an enemy; if a wife does not live well with her husband but deals very roughly, then she is an enemy; and if a son is a fool, he is also an enemy. In family life, father, mother, wife and children are assets, but if the wife or mother accepts another husband in the presence of her husband or son, then, according to Vedic civilization, she is considered an enemy.

From Mahābhārata we learn that when Gāndhārī understood that her would-be husband, Dhṛtarāṣṭra, was blind, she immediately began to practice blindness herself. Thus she covered her eyes and played the part of a blind woman. She decided that since her husband was blind, she must also act like a blind woman, otherwise she would be proud of her eyes, and her husband would be seen as inferior. The word samanuvrata indicates that it is the duty of a wife to adopt the special circumstances in which the husband is situated. Of course, if the husband is as great as Kardama Muni, then a very good result accrues from following him. But even if the husband is not a great devotee like Kardama Muni, it is the wife's duty to adapt herself according to his mentality. That makes married life very happy.

In the material world, if someone accumulates a million dollars, he is always full of fear because he is always thinking, \"What if the money is lost?\" But the benediction of the Lord, bhagavat-prasāda, is never to be lost. It is simply to be enjoyed. There is no question of loss. One simply gains and enjoys gaining. Bhagavad-gītā also confirms this: when one achieves the grace of the Lord, the result is that sarva-duḥkhāni, all distresses, are destroyed. When situated in the transcendental position, one is freed from the two kinds of material diseases, hankering and lamentation. This is also stated in Bhagavad-gītā. After devotional life begins, we can achieve the full result of love of Godhead. Love of Kṛṣṇa is the highest perfection of bhagavat-prasāda, or divine mercy. This transcendental achievement is so greatly valuable that no material happiness can compare to it. Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī said that if one achieves the grace of Lord Caitanya he becomes so great that he does not care a fig even for the demigods, he thinks of monism as hellish, and for him the perfection of controlling the senses is as easy as anything. Heavenly pleasures become to him no more than stories. Actually, there is no comparison between material happiness and transcendental happiness.", + "By the grace of Kardama Muni, Devahūti experienced actual realization simply by serving. We get a similar example in the life of Nārada Muni. In his previous life, Nārada was a maidservant's son, but his mother was engaged in the service of great devotees. He got the opportunity to serve the devotees, and simply by eating the remnants of their foodstuff and carrying out their orders he became so elevated that in his next life he became the great personality Nārada. For spiritual achievement the easiest path is to take shelter of a bona fide spiritual master and to serve him with heart and soul. That is the secret of success. As stated by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura in his eight stanzas of prayer to the spiritual master, yasya prasādād bhagavat-prasādaḥ. By serving or receiving the grace of the spiritual master, one receives the grace of the Supreme Lord. By serving her devotee-husband Kardama Muni, Devahūti shared in his achievements. Similarly, a sincere disciple, simply by serving a bona fide spiritual master, can achieve all the mercy of the Lord and the spiritual master simultaneously." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/08.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/08.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..17afa2c4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/08.json @@ -0,0 +1,131 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 8, + "reference": "SB 3.23.8", + "devanagari": "अन्ये पुनर्भगवतो भ्रुव उद्विजृम्भ विभ्रंशितार्थरचनाः किम् उरुक्रमस्य\nसिद्धासि भुंक्ष्व विभवान्निजधर्मदोहान्दिव्यान्नरैर्दुरधिगान्नृपविक्रियाभिः", + "transliteration": "anye punar bhagavato bhruva udvijṛmbha-\nvibhraṁśitārtha-racanāḥ kim urukramasya\nsiddhāsi bhuṅkṣva vibhavān nija-dharma-dohān\ndivyān narair duradhigān nṛpa-vikriyābhiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "anye", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhruvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the eyebrows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvijṛmbha", + "meanings": [ + "by the movement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhraṁśita", + "meanings": [ + "annihilated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "artha-racanāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "material achievements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what use" + ] + }, + { + "word": "urukramasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Lord Viṣṇu (far-stepping)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "siddhā", + "meanings": [ + "successful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asi", + "meanings": [ + "you are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuṅkṣva", + "meanings": [ + "enjoy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhavān", + "meanings": [ + "the gifts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nija-dharma", + "meanings": [ + "by your own principles of devotion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dohān", + "meanings": [ + "gained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divyān", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by persons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duradhigān", + "meanings": [ + "difficult to obtain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛpa-vikriyābhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "proud of aristocracy." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Kardama Muni continued: What is the use of enjoyments other than the Lord's grace?

Devahūti asked her husband, therefore, how to prepare herself for sex life according to the Vedic instructions. Sex life is especially meant for having good children. The circumstances for creating good children are mentioned in kāma-śāstra, the scripture in which suitable arrangements are prescribed for factually glorious sex life. Everything needed is mentioned in the scriptures—what sort of house and decorations there should be, what sort of dress the wife should have, how she should be decorated with ointments, scents and other attractive features, etc. With these requisites fulfilled, the husband will be attracted by her beauty, and a favorable menial situation will be created. The mental situation at the time of sex life may then be transferred into the womb of the wife, and good children can come out of that pregnancy. Here is a special reference to Devahūti's bodily features. Because she had become skinny, she feared that her body might have no attraction for Kardama. She wanted to be instructed how to improve her bodily condition in order to attract her husband. Sexual intercourse in which the husband is attracted to the wife is sure to produce a male child, but sexual intercourse based on attraction of the wife for the husband may produce a girl. That is mentioned in the Āyur Veda. When the passion of the woman is greater, there is a chance of a girl's being born. When the passion of the man is greater, then there is the possibility of a son. Devahūti wanted the passion of her husband to be increased by the arrangement mentioned in the kāma-śāstra. She wanted him to instruct her in that way, and she also requested that he arrange for a suitable house because the hermitage in which Kardama Muni was living was very simple and completely in the mode of goodness, and there was less possibility of passion's being aroused in his heart." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f87c1827 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 3.23.12", + "devanagari": "मैत्रेय उवाच\nप्रियायाः प्रियम् अन्विच्छन्कर्दमो योगम् आस्थितः\nविमानं कामगं क्षत्तस्तर्ह्य् एवाविरचीकरत्", + "transliteration": "maitreya uvāca\npriyāyāḥ priyam anvicchan\nkardamo yogam āsthitaḥ\nvimānaṁ kāmagaṁ kṣattas\ntarhy evāviracīkarat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "maitreyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the great sage Maitreya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyāyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of his beloved wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyam", + "meanings": [ + "the pleasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvicchan", + "meanings": [ + "seeking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kardamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sage Kardama" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogam", + "meanings": [ + "yogic power" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsthitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "exercised" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimānam", + "meanings": [ + "an airplane" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāma-gam", + "meanings": [ + "moving at will" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣattaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "O Vidura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tarhi", + "meanings": [ + "instantly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "quite" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āviracīkarat", + "meanings": [ + "he produced." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Maitreya continued: O Vidura, seeking to please his beloved wife, the sage Kardama exercised his yogic power and instantly produced an aerial mansion that could travel at his will.", + "purport": [ + "Here the words yogam āsthitaḥ are significant.

All these demigods take pleasure in the valleys of Mount Meru, which is situated somewhere between the sun and the earth. In the aerial mansion, Kardama Muni traveled throughout the eight directions controlled by the different demigods described above, and as the demigods go to Mount Meru, he also went there to enjoy life. When one is surrounded by young, beautiful girls, sex stimulation naturally becomes prominent. Kardama Muni was sexually stimulated, and he enjoyed his wife for many, many years in that part of Mount Meru. But his sex indulgence was praised by many, many Siddhas, beings who have attained perfection, because it was intended to produce good progeny for the good of universal affairs." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..66778b66 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,79 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 3.23.40", + "devanagari": "वैश्रम्भके सुरसने नन्दने पुष्पभद्रके\nमानसे चैत्ररथ्ये च स रेमे रामया रतः", + "transliteration": "vaiśrambhake surasane\nnandane puṣpabhadrake\nmānase caitrarathye ca\nsa reme rāmayā rataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vaiśrambhake", + "meanings": [ + "in the Vaiśrambhaka garden" + ] + }, + { + "word": "surasane", + "meanings": [ + "in Surasana" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nandane", + "meanings": [ + "in Nandana" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṣpabhadrake", + "meanings": [ + "in Puṣpabhadraka" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mānase", + "meanings": [ + "by the Mānasa-sarovara Lake" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caitrarathye", + "meanings": [ + "in Caitrarathya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "reme", + "meanings": [ + "enjoyed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāmayā", + "meanings": [ + "by his wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "satisfied." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Satisfied by his wife, he enjoyed in that aerial mansion not only on Mount Meru but in different gardens known as Vaiśrambhaka, Surasana, Nandana, Puṣpabhadraka and Caitrarathya, and by the Mānasa-sarovara Lake.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/41.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/41.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..da64fd7e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/23/verses/41.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 41, + "reference": "SB 3.23.41", + "devanagari": "भ्राजिष्णुना विमानेन कामगेन महीयसा\nवैमानिकान् अत्यशेत चरû लोकान्यथानिलः", + "transliteration": "bhrājiṣṇunā vimānena\nkāmagena mahīyasā\nvaimānikān atyaśeta\ncaraû lokān yathānilaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bhrājiṣṇunā", + "meanings": [ + "splendid" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimānena", + "meanings": [ + "with the airplane" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāma-gena", + "meanings": [ + "which flew according to his desire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahīyasā", + "meanings": [ + "very great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaimānikān", + "meanings": [ + "the demigods in their airplanes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atyaśeta", + "meanings": [ + "he surpassed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caran", + "meanings": [ + "traveling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokān", + "meanings": [ + "through the planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anilaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the air." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "He traveled in that way through the various planets, as the air passes uncontrolled in every direction.

Another significant word used in this verse is bahv-āścarya, \"many wonderful things.\" This indicates that the different planets are distributed all over the universe in the eight directions, and each and every one of them is wonderful in itself. Each planet has its particular climatic influences and particular types of inhabitants and is completely equipped with everything, including the beauty of the seasons.

By God's grace, by nature's law, each and every planet is made differently and has different wonderful features. All such wonders were personally experienced by Kardama Muni while he traveled with his wife, yet he could return again to his humble hermitage.

It is understood that the sexual appetite of a woman is nine times greater than that of a man. That is clearly indicated here.

A householder is not expected to remain at home for all his days. After getting his sons and daughters married, a householder can retire from household life, leaving his wife in the charge of the grown-up sons. That is the social convention of the Vedic system. Devahūti is indirectly asking that in his absence from home there be at least one male child to give her relief from her anxieties. This relief means spiritual instruction. Relief does not mean material comforts. Material comforts will end with the end of the body, but spiritual instruction will not end; it will go on with the spirit soul. Instruction in spiritual advancement is necessary, but without having a worthy son, how could Devahūti advance in spiritual knowledge? It is the duty of the husband to liquidate his debt to his wife. The wife gives her sincere service to the husband, and he becomes indebted to her because one cannot accept service from his subordinate without giving him something in exchange. The spiritual master cannot accept service from a disciple without awarding him spiritual instruction. That is the reciprocation of love and duty. Thus Devahūti reminds her husband, Kardama Muni, that she has rendered him faithful service. Even considering the situation on the basis of liquidating his debt towards his wife, he must give a male child before he leaves.

She was sufficiently educated and cultured, and at last she got Kardama Muni, a saintly person and a great yogī, as her husband. Still, if she did not get liberation from the entanglement of material energy, then certainly she would be cheated by the insurmountable illusory energy. Actually, the illusory material energy is cheating everyone. People do not know what they are doing when they worship the material energy in the form of goddess Kālī or Durgā for material boons. They ask, \"Mother, give me great riches, give me a good wife, give me fame, give me victory.\" But such devotees of the goddess Māyā or Durgā do not know that they are being cheated by that goddess. Material achievement is actually no achievement because as soon as one is illusioned by the material gifts, he becomes more and more entangled, and there is no question of liberation. One should be intelligent enough to know how to utilize material assets for the purpose of spiritual realization. That is called karma-yoga or jñāna-yoga. Whatever we have we should use as service to the Supreme Person. It is advised in Bhagavad-gītā, sva-karmaṇā tam abhyarcya.

That attraction takes the shape of a knot in the heart, and by material affection it becomes still more tight. For people who hanker after material possessions, society, friendship and love, this knot of affection becomes very strong. It is only by brahma-bhāvana—the instruction by which spiritual knowledge is enhanced—that the knot in the heart is cut to pieces.

Because Brahmā is the first living creature within this universe, he had no teacher; his teacher was the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself, who is seated in the heart of every living creature.

Real goodness is in the transcendental world. Here in the material world, the quality of goodness is not pure. Goodness may exist, but there must also be some tinges of passion and ignorance. In the spiritual world the unalloyed quality of goodness prevails; there the quality of goodness is called śuddha-sattva, pure goodness. Another name for śuddha-sattva is vāsudeva because God is born from Vasudeva. Another meaning is that when one is purely situated in the qualities of goodness, he can understand the form, name, quality, paraphernalia and entourage of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The word aṁśena also indicates that the Supreme Personality of Godhead Kṛṣṇa appeared as Kapiladeva in His portion of the portion. God expands either as kalā or as aṁśa. Aṁśa means direct expansion, and kalā means expansion of the expansion. There is no difference between the expansion, the expansion of the expansion and the Supreme Personality of Godhead directly, as there is no difference between one candle and another—but still the candle from which the others are lit is called the original.

I cannot carry it out.\" When he says that, he is fallen. The father and the spiritual master are on the same platform because a spiritual master is the second father. The higher classes are called dvija, twice-born. Whenever there is a question of birth, there must be a father. The first birth is made possible by the actual father, and the second birth is made possible by the spiritual master. Sometimes the father and the spiritual master may be the same man, and sometimes they are different men. In any case, the order of the father or the order of the spiritual master must be carried out without hesitation, with an immediate \"yes.\" There should be no argument.

If a disciple follows the instruction of the spiritual master in that way, he is sure to become perfect.

All these ṛṣis are most important, and Brahmā desired that the nine daughters already born of Kardama Muni be handed over to them. Here two words are used very significantly—yathā-śīlam and yathā-ruci. The daughters should be handed over to the respective ṛṣis, not blindly but according to the combination of character and taste. That is the art of combining a man and woman. Man and woman should not be united simply on the consideration of sex life. There are many other considerations, especially character and taste. If the taste and character differ between the man and woman, their combination will be unhappy. Even about forty years ago, in Indian marriages, the taste and character of the boy and girl were first of all matched, and then they were allowed to marry. This was done under the direction of the respective parents. The parents used to astrologically determine the character and tastes of the boy and girl, and when they corresponded, the match was selected: \"This girl and this boy are just suitable, and they should be married.\" Other considerations were less important. The same system was also advised in the beginning of the creation by Brahmā: \"Your daughters should be handed over to the ṛṣis according to taste and character.\"", + "According to astrological calculation, a person is classified according to whether he belongs to the godly or demoniac quality. In that way the spouse was selected. A girl of godly quality should be handed over to a boy of godly quality. A girl of demoniac quality should be handed over to a boy of demoniac quality. Then they will be happy. But if the girl is demoniac and the boy is godly, then the combination is incompatible; they cannot be happy in such a marriage. At the present moment, because boys and girls are not married according to quality and character, most marriages are unhappy, and there is divorce.", + "It is foretold in the Twelfth Canto of the Bhāgavatam that in this age of Kali married life will be accepted on the consideration of sex only; when the boy and the girl are pleased in sex, they get married, and when there is deficiency in sex, they separate. That is not actual marriage, but a combination of men and women like cats and dogs. Therefore, the children produced in the modern age are not exactly human beings. Human beings must be twice-born. A child is first born of a good father and mother, and then he is born again of the spiritual master and the Vedas. The first mother and father bring about his birth into the world; then the spiritual master and the Vedas become his second father and mother. According to the Vedic system of marriage for producing children, every man and woman was enlightened in spiritual knowledge, and at the time of their combination to produce a child, everything was scrutinizingly and scientifically done." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/24/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/24/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1f499000 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/24/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 3.24.16", + "devanagari": "वेदाहम् आद्यं पुरुषम् अवतीर्णं स्वमायया\nभूतानां शेवधिं देहं बिभ्राणं कपिलं मुने", + "transliteration": "vedāham ādyaṁ puruṣam\navatīrṇaṁ sva-māyayā\nbhūtānāṁ śevadhiṁ dehaṁ\nbibhrāṇaṁ kapilaṁ mune", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "veda", + "meanings": [ + "know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādyam", + "meanings": [ + "the original" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣam", + "meanings": [ + "enjoyer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avatīrṇam", + "meanings": [ + "incarnated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-māyayā", + "meanings": [ + "by His own internal energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of all the living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śevadhim", + "meanings": [ + "the bestower of all desired, who is just like a vast treasure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deham", + "meanings": [ + "the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bibhrāṇam", + "meanings": [ + "assuming" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kapilam", + "meanings": [ + "Kapila Muni" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mune", + "meanings": [ + "O sage Kardama." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Kardama, I know that the original Supreme Personality of Godhead has now appeared as an incarnation by His internal energy.

The spiritual world is a manifestation of His personal, internal potency, whereas the material world is a manifestation of His material or differentiated energy. The word sva-māyayā, by His own internal potency, indicates that whenever the Supreme Personality of Godhead descends, He comes in His own energy. He may assume the body of a human being, but that body is not material. In Bhagavad-gītā, therefore, it is clearly stated that only fools and rascals, mūḍhas, consider the body of Kṛṣṇa to be the body of a common human being. The word śevadhim means that He is the original bestower of all the necessities of life upon the living entities.

How could the honor of the devotees be increased unless sāṅkhya were meant for devotional service? Devotees are not interested in speculative knowledge; therefore, the sāṅkhya enunciated by Kapila Muni is meant to establish one firmly in devotional service.

Those multi-forms are manifested by Him transcendentally, according to the tastes of His multi-devotees. It is understood that once Hanumān, the great devotee of Lord Rāmacandra, said that he knew that Nārāyaṇa, the husband of Lakṣmī, and Rāma, the husband of Sītā, are one and the same, and that there is no difference between Lakṣmī and Sītā, but as for himself, he liked the form of Lord Rāma. In a similar way, some devotees worship the original form of Kṛṣṇa. When we say Kṛṣṇa we refer to all forms of the Lord—not only Kṛṣṇa, but Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Varāha, Nārāyaṇa, etc. The varieties of transcendental forms exist simultaneously. That is also stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā: rāmādi-mūrtiṣu. .. nānāvatāram. He already exists in multi-forms, but none of the forms are material. Śrīdhara Svāmī has commented that arūpiṇaḥ, without form, means without material form.

Māyāvādī philosophers cannot understand these transcendental forms of the Lord, and, being disappointed, they say that the Supreme Lord is impersonal.

The conclusion is that the Lord has no material form, and yet, according to the liking of different grades of devotees, He simultaneously exists in multi-forms, such as Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Varāha, Nārāyaṇa and Mukunda.

Param is explained further by the next word, pradhānam, which means the chief, the origin, the source of everything—sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam—the cause of all causes. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is not formless; He is puruṣam, or the enjoyer, the original person. He is the time element and is all-cognizant. He knows everything—past, present and future—as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. The Lord says, \"I know everything, present, past and future, in every corner of the universe.\" The material world, which is moving under the spell of the three modes of nature, is also a manifestation of His energy. Parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate: everything that we see is an interaction of His energies (Śvet. Up. 6.8). Parasya brahmaṇaḥ śaktis tathedam akhilaṁ jagat. This is the version of the Viṣṇu Purāṇa. We can understand that whatever we see is an interaction of the three modes of material nature, but actually it is all an interaction of the Lord's energy. Loka-pālam: He is actually the maintainer of all living entities. Nityo nityānām: He is the chief of all living entities; He is one, but He maintains many, many living entities. God maintains all other living entities, but no one can maintain God. That is His svacchanda-śakti; He is not dependent on others. Someone may call himself independent, but he is still dependent on someone higher. The Personality of Godhead, however, is absolute; there is no one higher than or equal to Him.", + "Kapila Muni appeared as the son of Kardama Muni, but because He is an incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kardama Muni offered his respectful obeisances unto Him with full surrender. Another word in this verse is very important: ātmānubhūtyānugata-prapañcam. The Lord descends either as Kapila or Rāma, Nṛsiṁha or Varāha, and whatever forms He assumes in the material world are all manifestations of His own personal internal energy. They are never the forms of the material energy. The ordinary living entities who are manifested in this material world have bodies created by the material energy, but when Kṛṣṇa or any one of His expansions or parts of the expansions descends on this material world, although He appears to have a material body, His body is not material. He always has a transcendental body. But fools and rascals, who are called mūḍhas, consider Him one of them, and therefore they deride Him. They refuse to accept Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead because they cannot understand Him. In Bhagavad-gītā Kṛṣṇa says, avajānanti māṁ mūḍhāḥ: \"Those who are rascals and fools deride Me.\" When God descends in a form, this does not mean that He assumes His form with the help of the material energy.

God Himself was present in his home—why should he leave home? Such a question may certainly arise. But here it is said that whatever is spoken in the Vedas and whatever is practiced in accordance with the injunctions of the Vedas is to be accepted as authoritative in society. Vedic authority says that a householder must leave home after his fiftieth year. Pañcāśordhvaṁ vanaṁ vrajet: one must leave his family life and enter the forest after the age of fifty.

Kardama did that also; he begot nine good daughters and one son, Kapila Muni, and thus his householder duty was also performed nicely, and now his duty was to leave. Even though he had the Supreme Personality of Godhead as his son, he had to respect the authority of the Vedas. This is a very important lesson. Even if one has God in his home as his son, he should still follow the Vedic injunctions. It is stated, mahājano yena gataḥ sa panthāḥ: one should traverse the path which is followed by great personalities.", + "Kardama Muni's example is very instructive, for in spite of having the Supreme Personality of Godhead as his son, he left home just to obey the authority of the Vedic injunction. Kardama Muni states here the main purpose of his leaving home: while traveling all over the world as a mendicant, he would always remember the Supreme Personality of Godhead within his heart and thereby be freed from all the anxieties of material existence. In this age of Kali-yuga sannyāsa is prohibited because persons in this age are all śūdras and cannot follow the rules and regulations of sannyāsa life. It is very commonly found that so-called sannyāsīs are addicted to nonsense—even to having private relationships with women. This is the abominable situation in this age. Although they dress themselves as sannyāsīs, they still cannot free themselves from the four principles of sinful life, namely illicit sex life, meat eating, intoxication and gambling. Since they are not freed from these four principles, they are cheating the public by posing as svāmīs.", + "In Kali-yuga the injunction is that no one should accept sannyāsa. Of course, those who actually follow the rules and regulations must take sannyāsa. Generally, however, people are unable to accept sannyāsa life, and therefore Caitanya Mahāprabhu stressed, kalau nāsty eva nāsty eva nāsty eva gatir anyathā. In this age there is no other alternative, no other alternative, no other alternative than to chant the holy name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare. The main purpose of sannyāsa life is to be in constant companionship with the Supreme Lord, either by thinking of Him within the heart or hearing of Him through aural reception. In this age, hearing is more important than thinking because one's thinking may be disturbed by mental agitation, but if one concentrates on hearing, he will be forced to associate with the sound vibration of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa and the sound vibration Kṛṣṇa are nondifferent, so if one loudly vibrates Hare Kṛṣṇa, he will be able to think of Kṛṣṇa immediately. This process of chanting is the best process of self-realization in this age; therefore Lord Caitanya preached it so nicely for the benefit of all humanity." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/24/verses/36.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/24/verses/36.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5c8270a2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/24/verses/36.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 36, + "reference": "SB 3.24.36", + "devanagari": "एतन्मे जन्म लोके ऽस्मिन्मुमुक्षूणां दुराशयात्\nप्रसंख्यानाय तत्त्वानां सम्मतायात्मदर्शने", + "transliteration": "etan me janma loke 'smin\nmumukṣūṇāṁ durāśayāt\nprasaṅkhyānāya tattvānāṁ\nsammatāyātma-darśane", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "My" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "birth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loke", + "meanings": [ + "in the world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asmin", + "meanings": [ + "in this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mumukṣūṇām", + "meanings": [ + "by those great sages seeking liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durāśayāt", + "meanings": [ + "from unnecessary material desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prasaṅkhyānāya", + "meanings": [ + "for explaining" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tattvānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the truths" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sammatāya", + "meanings": [ + "which is highly esteemed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-darśane", + "meanings": [ + "in self-realization." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My appearance in this world is especially to explain the philosophy of sāṅkhya, which is highly esteemed for self-realization by those desiring freedom from the entanglement of unnecessary material desires.", + "purport": [ + "Here the word durāśayāt is very significant.

But people are not inquiring whether it is possible to have an eternal body. Actually they aspire for an eternal body because even though they engage in sense enjoyment, that sense enjoyment is not eternal. They are therefore in want of something which they can enjoy eternally, but they do not understand how to attain that perfection. Sāṅkhya philosophy, therefore, as stated herein by Kapiladeva, is tattvānām. The sāṅkhya philosophy system is designed to afford understanding of the real truth. What is that real truth?

Therefore Kṛṣṇa again enunciated the same ancient yoga system to Arjuna, who could actually understand Bhagavad-gītā.

In Bhagavad-gītā, Fifteenth Chapter, the Lord says, \"I am sitting in everyone's heart, and from Me come everyone's remembrance and forgetfulness.\" Devahūti has stated that false identification of the body with the self and attachment for possessions in relation to the body are also under the direction of the Lord. Does this mean that the Lord discriminates by engaging one in His devotional service and another in sense gratification? If that were true, it would be an incongruity on the part of the Supreme Lord, but that is not the actual fact. As soon as the living entity forgets his real constitutional position of eternal servitorship to the Lord and wants instead to enjoy himself by sense gratification, he is captured by māyā. This capture by māyā is the consciousness of false identification with the body and attachment for the possessions of the body. These are the activities of māyā, and since māyā is also an agent of the Lord, it is indirectly the action of the Lord. The Lord is merciful; if anyone wants to forget Him and enjoy this material world, He gives him full facility, not directly but through the agency of His material potency. Therefore, since the material potency is the Lord's energy, indirectly it is the Lord who gives the facility to forget Him. Devahūti therefore said, \"My engagement in sense gratification was also due to You. Now kindly get me free from this entanglement.\"", + "By the grace of the Lord one is allowed to enjoy this material world, but when one is disgusted with material enjoyment and is frustrated, and when one sincerely surrenders unto the lotus feet of the Lord, then the Lord is so kind that He frees one from entanglement.

In this material world, activities for material enjoyment which are considered to be pious are also sinful. For example, one sometimes gives something in charity to a needy person with a view to get back the money four times increased. Giving with the purpose of gaining something is called charity in the mode of passion. Everything done here is done in the modes of material nature, and therefore all activities but service to the Lord are sinful. Because of sinful activities we become attracted by the illusion of material attachment, and we think, \"I am this body.\" I think of the body as myself and of bodily possessions as \"mine.\" Devahūti requested Lord Kapila to free her from that entanglement of false identification and false possession." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cbdcf650 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 3.25.11", + "devanagari": "तं त्वा गताहं शरणं शरण्यं स्वभृत्यसंसारतरोः कुठारम्\nजिज्ञासयाहं प्रकृतेः पूरुषस्य नमामि सद्धर्मविदां वरिष्ठम्", + "transliteration": "taṁ tvā gatāhaṁ śaraṇaṁ śaraṇyaṁ\nsva-bhṛtya-saṁsāra-taroḥ kuṭhāram\njijñāsayāhaṁ prakṛteḥ pūruṣasya\nnamāmi sad-dharma-vidāṁ variṣṭham", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "that person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvā", + "meanings": [ + "unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatā", + "meanings": [ + "have gone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "shelter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇyam", + "meanings": [ + "worth taking shelter of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-bhṛtya", + "meanings": [ + "for Your dependents" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsāra", + "meanings": [ + "of material existence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "taroḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the tree" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuṭhāram", + "meanings": [ + "the axe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jijñāsayā", + "meanings": [ + "with the desire to know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prakṛteḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of matter (woman)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūruṣasya", + "meanings": [ + "of spirit (man)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namāmi", + "meanings": [ + "I offer obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat-dharma", + "meanings": [ + "of the eternal occupation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidām", + "meanings": [ + "of the knowers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "variṣṭham", + "meanings": [ + "unto the greatest." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Devahūti continued: I have taken shelter of Your lotus feet because You are the only person of whom to take shelter.

Puruṣa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead or anyone who imitates the Supreme Personality of Godhead as an enjoyer, and prakṛti means nature. In this material world, material nature is being exploited by the puruṣas, or the living entities. The intricacies in the material world of the relationship of the prakṛti and puruṣa, or the enjoyed and the enjoyer, is called saṁsāra, or material entanglement. Devahūti wanted to cut the tree of material entanglement, and she found the suitable weapon in Kapila Muni. The tree of material existence is explained in the Fifteenth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā as an aśvattha tree whose root is upwards and whose branches are downwards. It is recommended there that one has to cut the root of this material existential tree with the axe of detachment. What is the attachment? The attachment involves prakṛti and puruṣa. The living entities are trying to lord it over material nature. Since the conditioned soul takes material nature to be the object of his enjoyment and he takes the position of the enjoyer, he is therefore called puruṣa.", + "Devahūti questioned Kapila Muni, for she knew that only He could cut her attachment for this material world. The living entities, in the guises of men and women, are trying to enjoy the material energy; therefore in one sense everyone is puruṣa because puruṣa means enjoyer and prakṛti means enjoyed. In this material world both the so-called man and so-called woman are imitating the real puruṣa; the Supreme Personality of Godhead is actually the enjoyer in the transcendental sense, whereas all others are prakṛti. The living entities are considered prakṛti. In Bhagavad-gītā, matter is analyzed as aparā, or inferior nature, whereas beyond this inferior nature there is another, superior nature—the living entities. Living entities are also prakṛti, or enjoyed, but under the spell of māyā, the living entities are falsely trying to take the position of enjoyers. That is the cause of saṁsāra-bandha, or conditional life. Devahūti wanted to get out of conditional life and place herself in full surrender. The Lord is śaraṇya, which means the only worthy personality to whom one can fully surrender, because He is full of all opulences. If anyone actually wants relief, the best course is to surrender unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord is also described here as sad-dharma-vidāṁ variṣṭham. This indicates that of all transcendental occupations the best occupation is eternal loving service unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Dharma is sometimes translated as religion, but that is not exactly the meaning. Dharma actually means that which one cannot give up, that which is inseparable from oneself.

The word brahma-siddhaye means to understand oneself to be different from matter, to understand oneself to be Brahman. The Vedic words are ahaṁ brahmāsmi. Brahma-siddhi means that one should know that he is not matter; he is pure soul. There are different kinds of yogīs, but every yogī is supposed to engage in self-realization or Brahman realization. It is clearly stated here that unless one is fully engaged in the devotional service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead one cannot have easy approach to the path of brahma-siddhi.", + "In the beginning of the Second Chapter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is stated that when one engages himself in the devotional service of Vāsudeva, spiritual knowledge and renunciation of the material world automatically become manifest. Thus a devotee does not have to try separately for renunciation or knowledge. Devotional service itself is so powerful that by one's service attitude, everything is revealed. It is stated here, śivaḥ panthā: this is the only auspicious path for self-realization. The path of devotional service is the most confidential means for attaining Brahman realization. That perfection in Brahman realization is attained through the auspicious path of devotional service indicates that the so-called Brahman realization or realization of the brahmajyoti effulgence is not brahma-siddhi. Beyond that brahmajyoti there is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In the Upaniṣads a devotee prays to the Lord to kindly put aside the effulgence, brahmajyoti, so that the devotee may see within the brahmajyoti the actual eternal form of the Lord. Unless one attains realization of the transcendental form of the Lord, there is no question of bhakti. Bhakti necessitates the existence of the recipient of devotional service and the devotee who renders devotional service. Brahma-siddhi through devotional service is realization of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The understanding of the effulgent rays of the body of the Supreme Godhead is not the perfect stage of brahma-siddhi or Brahman realization. Nor is the realization of the Paramātmā feature of the Supreme Person perfect because Bhagavān, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is akhilātmā—He is the Supersoul. One who realizes the Supreme Personality realizes the other features, namely the Paramātmā feature and the Brahman feature, and that total realization is brahma-siddhi." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e0b41f9a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,83 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 3.25.20", + "devanagari": "प्रसंगम् अजरं पाशम् आत्मनः कवयो विदुः\nस एव साधुषु कृतो मोक्षद्वारम् अपावृतम्", + "transliteration": "prasaṅgam ajaraṁ pāśam\nātmanaḥ kavayo viduḥ\nsa eva sādhuṣu kṛto\nmokṣa-dvāram apāvṛtam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "prasaṅgam", + "meanings": [ + "attachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajaram", + "meanings": [ + "strong" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāśam", + "meanings": [ + "entanglement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kavayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "learned men" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viduḥ", + "meanings": [ + "know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ eva", + "meanings": [ + "that same" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhuṣu", + "meanings": [ + "to the devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "applied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mokṣa-dvāram", + "meanings": [ + "the door of liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apāvṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "opened." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Every learned man knows very well that attachment for the material is the greatest entanglement of the spirit soul.

Consciousness, therefore, is the platform of attachment. It is clearly stated here that when we simply purify the consciousness from material consciousness to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, that is liberation. Despite the statement that one should give up attachment, desirelessness is not possible for a living entity. A living entity, by constitution, has the propensity to be attached to something. We see that if someone has no object of attachment, if he has no children, then he transfers his attachment to cats and dogs. This indicates that the propensity for attachment cannot be stopped; it must be utilized for the best purpose. Our attachment for material things perpetuates our conditional state, but the same attachment, when transferred to the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His devotee, is the source of liberation.", + "Here it is recommended that attachment should be transferred to the self-realized devotees, the sādhus.

Even though one is found not to be following the strict rules and regulations of devotional service, if one simply has unflinching faith in Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Person, he is understood to be a sādhu. Sādhur eva sa mantavyaḥ. A sādhu is a strict follower of devotional service. It is recommended here that if one at all wants to realize Brahman or spiritual perfection, his attachment should be transferred to the sādhu or devotee. Lord Caitanya also confirmed this.

Rendering service to the materialists has the opposite effect. If anyone offers service to a gross materialist or a person engaged only in sense enjoyment, then by association with such a person the door to hell is opened (Bhāg. 5.5.2). The same principle is confirmed here. Attachment to a devotee is attachment to the service of the Lord because if one associates with a sādhu, then the result will be that the sādhu will teach him how to become a devotee, a worshiper and a sincere servitor of the Lord. These are the gifts of a sādhu. If we want to associate with a sādhu we cannot expect him to give us instructions on how to improve our material condition, but he will give us instructions on how to cut the knot of the contamination of material attraction and how to elevate ourselves in devotional service. That is the result of associating with a sādhu. Kapila Muni first of all instructs that the path of liberation begins with such association." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4d0e5b99 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,64 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 3.25.21", + "devanagari": "तितिक्षवः कारुणिकाः सुहृदः सर्वदेहिनाम्\nअजातशत्रवः शान्ताः साधवः साधुभूषणाः", + "transliteration": "titikṣavaḥ kāruṇikāḥ\nsuhṛdaḥ sarva-dehinām\najāta-śatravaḥ śāntāḥ\nsādhavaḥ sādhu-bhūṣaṇāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "titikṣavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "tolerant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāruṇikāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "merciful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suhṛdaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "friendly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-dehinām", + "meanings": [ + "to all living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajāta-śatravaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "inimical to none" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śāntāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "peaceful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "abiding by scriptures" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhu-bhūṣaṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "adorned with sublime characteristics." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The symptoms of a sādhu are that he is tolerant, merciful and friendly to all living entities.

Human life is meant for self-realization or Kṛṣṇa consciousness.\" These are the preachings of a sādhu. He is not satisfied with his own liberation. He always thinks about others. He is the most compassionate personality towards all the fallen souls. One of his qualifications, therefore, is kāruṇika, great mercy to the fallen souls. While engaged in preaching work he has to meet with so many opposing elements, and therefore the sādhu or devotee of the Lord has to be very tolerant. Someone may ill-treat him because the conditioned souls are not prepared to receive the transcendental knowledge of devotional service. They don't like it; that is their disease. The sādhu has the thankless task of impressing upon them the importance of devotional service. Sometimes devotees are personally attacked with violence. Lord Jesus Christ was crucified, Haridāsa Ṭhākura was caned in twenty-two marketplaces, and Lord Caitanya's principal assistant, Nityānanda, was violently attacked by Jagāi and Mādhāi. But still they were tolerant because their mission was to deliver the fallen souls. One of the qualifications of a sādhu is that he is very tolerant and is merciful to all fallen souls. He is merciful because he is the well-wisher of all living entities. He is not only a well-wisher of human society, but a well-wisher of animal society as well. It is said here, sarva-dehinām, which indicates all living entities who have accepted a material body. Not only does the human being have a material body, but other living entities, such as cats and dogs, also have material bodies. The devotee of the Lord is merciful to everyone—the cats, dogs, trees, etc. He treats all living entities in such a way that they can ultimately get salvation from this material entanglement. Śivānanda Sena, one of the disciples of Lord Caitanya, gave liberation to a dog by treating the dog transcendentally. There are many instances where a dog got salvation by association with a sādhu because a sādhu engages in the highest philanthropic activities for the benediction of all living entities. Yet although a sādhu is not inimical towards anyone, the world is so ungrateful that even a sādhu has many enemies.", + "What is the difference between an enemy and a friend? It is a difference in behavior. A sādhu behaves with all conditioned souls for their ultimate relief from the material entanglement. Therefore, no one can be more friendly than a sādhu in relieving a conditioned soul. A sādhu is calm, and he quietly and peacefully follows the principles of scripture. A sādhu means one who follows the principles of scripture and at the same time is a devotee of the Lord. One who actually follows the principles of scripture must be a devotee of God because all the śāstras instruct us to obey the orders of the Personality of Godhead. Sādhu, therefore, means a follower of the scriptural injunctions and a devotee of the Lord. All these characteristics are prominent in a devotee. A devotee develops all the good qualities of the demigods, whereas a nondevotee, even though academically qualified, has no actual good qualifications or good characteristics in the standard of transcendental realization." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..96b38cd1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 3.25.22", + "devanagari": "मय्य् अनन्येन भावेन भक्तिं कुर्वन्ति ये दृढाम्\nमत्कृते त्यक्तकर्माणस्त्यक्तस्वजनबान्धवाः", + "transliteration": "mayy ananyena bhāvena\nbhaktiṁ kurvanti ye dṛḍhām\nmat-kṛte tyakta-karmāṇas\ntyakta-svajana-bāndhavāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "mayi", + "meanings": [ + "unto Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananyena bhāvena", + "meanings": [ + "with undeviated mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktim", + "meanings": [ + "devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kurvanti", + "meanings": [ + "perform" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "those who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛḍhām", + "meanings": [ + "staunch" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat-kṛte", + "meanings": [ + "for My sake" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tyakta", + "meanings": [ + "renounced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tyakta", + "meanings": [ + "renounced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-jana", + "meanings": [ + "family relationships" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bāndhavāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "friendly acquaintances." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Such a sādhu engages in staunch devotional service to the Lord without deviation.

In Bhagavad-gītā, Fifteenth Chapter, fifth verse, it is stated who is qualified to enter into the kingdom of Godhead. It is said there, nirmāna-mohā jita-saṅga-doṣāḥ. This refers to one who is completely freed from the puffed-up condition of material possessiveness. A person may be materially very rich, opulent or respectable, but if he at all wants to transfer himself to the spiritual kingdom, back home, back to Godhead, then he has to be freed from the puffed-up condition of material possessiveness, because that is a false position.", + "The word moha, used here, means the false understanding that one is rich or poor. In this material world, the conception that one is very rich or very poor—or any such consciousness in connection with material existence—is false, because this body itself is false or temporary. A pure soul who is prepared to be freed from this material entanglement must first of all be free from the association of the three modes of nature. Our consciousness at the present moment is polluted because of association with the three modes of nature; therefore in Bhagavad-gītā the same principle is stated. It is advised, jita-saṅga-doṣāḥ: one should be freed from the contaminated association of the three modes of material nature. Here also, in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, this is confirmed: a pure devotee who is preparing to transfer himself to the spiritual kingdom is also freed from the association of the three modes of material nature. We have to seek the association of such devotees. For this reason we have begun the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. There are many mercantile, scientific and other associations in human society to develop a particular type of education or consciousness, but there is no association which helps one to get free from all material association. If anyone has reached the stage where he must become free from this material contamination, then he has to seek the association of devotees, wherein Kṛṣṇa consciousness is exclusively cultured. One can thereby become freed from all material association.", + "Because a devotee is freed from all contaminated material association, he is not affected by the miseries of material existence. Even though he appears to be in the material world, he is not affected by the miseries of the material world. How is it possible? There is a very good example in the activities of the cat. The cat carries her kittens in her mouth, and when she kills a rat she also carries the booty in her mouth. Thus both are carried in the mouth of the cat, but they are in different conditions. The kitten feels comfort in the mouth of the mother, whereas when the rat is carried in the mouth of the cat, the rat feels the blows of death. Similarly, those who are sādhavaḥ, or devotees engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness in the transcendental service of the Lord, do not feel the contamination of material miseries, whereas those who are not devotees in Kṛṣṇa consciousness actually feel the miseries of material existence. One should therefore give up the association of materialistic persons and seek the association of persons engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and by such association he will be benefited in spiritual advancement.

One must give up the association of materialistic persons and seek the association of devotees because without the association of devotees one cannot understand the activities of the Lord. Generally, people are convinced of the impersonal feature of the Absolute Truth. Because they do not associate with devotees, they cannot understand that the Absolute Truth can be a person and have personal activities. This is a very difficult subject matter, and unless one has personal understanding of the Absolute Truth, there is no meaning to devotion. Service or devotion cannot be offered to anything impersonal. Service must be offered to a person. Nondevotees cannot appreciate Kṛṣṇa consciousness by reading the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or any other Vedic literature wherein the activities of the Lord are described; they think that they are fiction, manufactured stories, because spiritual life is not explained to them in the proper mood. To understand the personal activities of the Lord one has to seek the association of devotees, and by such association, when one contemplates and tries to understand the transcendental activities of the Lord, then his path to liberation is open, and he is freed. One who has firm faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead becomes fixed, and his attraction for association with the Lord and the devotees increases. Association with devotees means association with the Lord. The devotee who makes this association develops the consciousness for rendering service to the Lord, and then, being situated in the transcendental position of devotional service, he gradually becomes perfect." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..69fa8924 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 3.25.26", + "devanagari": "भक्त्या पुमाञ्जातविराग ऐन्द्रियाद्दृष्टश्रुतान्मद्रचनानुचिन्तया\nचित्तस्य यत्तो ग्रहणे योगयुक्तो यतिष्यते ऋजुभिर्योगमार्गैः", + "transliteration": "bhaktyā pumāñ jāta-virāga aindriyād\ndṛṣṭa-śrutān mad-racanānucintayā\ncittasya yatto grahaṇe yoga-yukto\nyatiṣyate ṛjubhir yoga-mārgaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bhaktyā", + "meanings": [ + "by devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pumān", + "meanings": [ + "a person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jāta-virāgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "having developed distaste" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aindriyāt", + "meanings": [ + "for sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭa", + "meanings": [ + "seen (in this world)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrutāt", + "meanings": [ + "heard (in the next world)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat-racana", + "meanings": [ + "My activities of creation and so on" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anucintayā", + "meanings": [ + "by constantly thinking about" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cittasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yattaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "engaged" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grahaṇe", + "meanings": [ + "in the control" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga-yuktaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "situated in devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatiṣyate", + "meanings": [ + "will endeavor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛjubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "easy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga-mārgaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the processes of mystic power." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus consciously engaged in devotional service in the association of devotees, a person gains distaste for sense gratification, both in this world and in the next, by constantly thinking about the activities of the Lord.

There are full literatures describing these activities of the Lord, especially Bhagavad-gītā, Brahma-saṁhitā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. The sincere devotee who associates with devotees gets the opportunity to hear and contemplate this subject of the pastimes of the Lord, and the result is that he feels distaste for so-called happiness in this or that world, in heaven or on other planets. The devotees are simply interested in being transferred to the personal association of the Lord; they have no more attraction for temporary so-called happiness. That is the position of one who is yoga-yukta. One who is fixed in mystic power is not disturbed by the allurement of this world or that world; he is interested in the matters of spiritual understanding or the spiritual situation. This sublime situation is very easily attained by the easiest process, bhakti-yoga. Ṛjubhir yoga-mārgaiḥ. A very suitable word used here is ṛjubhiḥ, or very easy. There are different processes of yoga-mārga, attaining yoga perfection, but this process, devotional service to the Lord, is the easiest.

The jñāna-yoga system aims at the impersonal Brahman effulgence, and the haṭha-yoga system aims at the localized personal aspect, the Paramātmā feature of the Absolute Truth, whereas bhakti-yoga, or devotional service, which is executed in nine different ways, headed by hearing and chanting, aims at complete realization of the Supreme Lord. There are different methods of self-realization. But here Devahūti especially refers to the bhakti-yoga system, which has already been primarily explained by the Lord. The different parts of the bhakti-yoga system are hearing, chanting, remembering, offering prayers, worshiping the Lord in the temple, accepting service to Him, carrying out His orders, making friendship with Him, and, after all, surrendering everything for the service of the Lord. The word nirvāṇātman is very significant in this verse. Unless one accepts the process of devotional service, one cannot end the continuation of material existence. As far as jñānīs are concerned, they are interested in jñāna-yoga, but even if one elevates oneself, after a great performance of austerity, to the Brahman effulgence, there is a chance of falling down again in the material world. Therefore, jñāna-yoga does not actually end material existence. Similarly, regarding the haṭha-yoga system, which aims at the localized aspect of the Lord, Paramātmā, it has been experienced that many yogīs, such as Viśvāmitra, fall down. But bhakti-yogīs, once approaching the Supreme Personality of Godhead, never come back to this material world, as it is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā. Yad gatvā na nivartante: upon going, one never comes back. Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti: after giving up this body, he never comes back again to accept a material body. Nirvāṇa does not finish the existence of the soul. The soul is ever-existing. Therefore nirvāṇa means to end one's material existence, and to end material existence means to go back home, back to Godhead.", + "Sometimes it is questioned how the living entity falls down from the spiritual world to the material world. Here is the answer. Unless one is elevated to the Vaikuṇṭha planets, directly in touch with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is prone to fall down, either from the impersonal Brahman realization or from an ecstatic trance of meditation. Another word in this verse, bhagavad-bānaḥ, is very significant. Bānaḥ means arrow. The bhakti-yoga system is just like an arrow aiming up to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The bhakti-yoga system never urges one towards the impersonal Brahman effulgence or to the point of Paramātmā realization. This bāṇaḥ, or arrow, is so sharp and swift that it goes directly to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, penetrating the regions of impersonal Brahman and localized Paramātmā." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/30.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/30.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ef08aaec --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/30.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 30, + "reference": "SB 3.25.30", + "devanagari": "तद् एतन्मे विजानीहि यथाहं मन्दधीर्हरे\nसुखं बुद्ध्येय दुर्बोधं योषा भवदनुग्रहात्", + "transliteration": "tad etan me vijānīhi\nyathāhaṁ manda-dhīr hare\nsukhaṁ buddhyeya durbodhaṁ\nyoṣā bhavad-anugrahāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat etat", + "meanings": [ + "that same" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "to me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijānīhi", + "meanings": [ + "please explain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "so that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manda", + "meanings": [ + "slow" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hare", + "meanings": [ + "O my Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sukham", + "meanings": [ + "easily" + ] + }, + { + "word": "buddhyeya", + "meanings": [ + "may understand" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durbodham", + "meanings": [ + "very difficult to understand" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoṣā", + "meanings": [ + "a woman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavat-anugrahāt", + "meanings": [ + "by Your grace." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear son, Kapila, after all, I am a woman.

A pure devotee, as will be explained by Kapila Muni, does not aspire for any of the five liberations. He especially despises as hellish becoming one with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Śrī Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī, a great devotee of Lord Caitanya, said kaivalyaṁ narakāyate: \"The happiness of becoming one with the Supreme Lord, which is aspired to by the Māyāvādīs, is considered to be hellish.\" That oneness is not for pure devotees.", + "There are many so-called devotees who think that in the conditioned state we may worship the Personality of Godhead, but ultimately there is no personality; they say that since the Absolute Truth is impersonal, one can imagine a personal form of the impersonal Absolute Truth for the time being, but as soon as one becomes liberated the worship stops. That is the theory put forward by the Māyāvāda philosophy. Actually the impersonalists do not merge into the existence of the Supreme Person but into His personal bodily luster, which is called brahmajyoti. Although that brahmajyoti is not different from His personal body, that sort of oneness or merging into the bodily luster of the Personality of Godhead is not accepted by a pure devotee because the devotees engage in greater pleasure than the so-called pleasure of merging into His existence. The greatest pleasure is to serve the Lord. Devotees are always thinking about how to serve Him; they are always designing ways and means to serve the Supreme Lord, even in the midst of the greatest obstacles of material existence.", + "The Māyāvādīs accept the description of the pastimes of the Lord as stories, but actually they are not stories; they are historical facts. Pure devotees accept the narrations of the pastimes of the Lord not as stories but as Absolute Truth. The words mama pauruṣāṇi are significant. Devotees are very much attached to glorifying the activities of the Lord, whereas the Māyāvādīs cannot even think of these activities. According to them the Absolute Truth is impersonal. Without personal existence, how can there be activity? The impersonalists take the activities mentioned in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā, and other Vedic literatures as fictitious stories, and therefore they interpret them most mischievously. They have no idea of the Personality of Godhead. They unnecessarily poke their noses into the scripture and interpret it in a deceptive way in order to mislead the innocent public. The activities of Māyāvāda philosophy are very dangerous to the public, and therefore Lord Caitanya warned never to hear from any Māyāvādī about any scripture. They will spoil the entire process, and the person hearing them will never be able to come to the path of devotional service to attain the highest perfection, or will be able to do so only after a very long time.", + "It is clearly stated by Kapila Muni that bhakti activities or activities in devotional service are transcendental to mukti. This is called pañcama-puruṣārtha. Generally, people engage in the activities of religion, economic development and sense gratification, and ultimately they work with an idea that they are going to become one with the Supreme Lord (mukti). But bhakti is transcendental to all these activities. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, therefore, begins by stating that all kinds of pretentious religiosity is completely eradicated from the Bhāgavatam. Ritualistic activities for economic development and sense gratification, and, after frustration in sense gratification, the desire to become one with the Supreme Lord, are all completely rejected in the Bhāgavatam. The Bhāgavatam is especially meant for the pure devotees who always engage in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, in the activities of the Lord, and always glorify these transcendental activities. Pure devotees worship the transcendental activities of the Lord in Vṛndāvana, Dvārakā and Mathurā as they are narrated in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and other Purāṇas. The Māyāvādī philosophers completely reject them as stories, but actually they are great and worshipable subject matter and thus are relishable only for devotees.

Then why is the Deity not God? Actually, they have no conception of God. The devotees' vision, however, is different; their vision is smeared with love of God. As soon as they see the Lord in His different forms the devotees become saturated with love, for they do not find any difference between the Lord and His form in the temple, as do the atheists. The smiling face of the Deity in the temple is beheld by the devotees as very transcendental and spiritual, and the decoration of the body of the Lord is very much appreciated by the devotees. It is the duty of the spiritual master to teach how to decorate the Deity in the temple, how to cleanse the temple and how to worship the Deity. There are different procedures and rules and regulations which are followed in temples of Viṣṇu, and devotees go there and see the Deity, the vigraha, and spiritually enjoy the form because all of the Deities are benevolent. The devotees express their minds before the Deity, and in many instances the Deity also gives answers. But one must be a very elevated devotee in order to be able to speak with the Supreme Lord. Sometimes the Lord informs the devotee through dreams. These exchanges of feelings between the Deity and the devotee are not understandable by atheists, but actually the devotee enjoys.

Simply by fixing oneself in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, engaging the senses in the service of the Lord, one is imperceptibly liberated. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Simply by discharging uncontaminated devotional service as prescribed in the scriptures, one becomes equal to Brahman. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said, brahma-bhūyāya kalpate. This means that the living entity in his original state is Brahman because he is part and parcel of the Supreme Brahman. But simply because of his forgetfulness of his real nature as an eternal servitor of the Lord, he is overwhelmed and captured by māyā. His forgetfulness of his real constitutional position is māyā.

Even the third-class devotee, who is not advanced in knowledge of the Absolute Truth but simply offers obeisances with great devotion, thinks of the Lord, sees the Lord in the temple and brings forth flowers and fruits to offer to the Deity, becomes imperceptibly liberated. Śraddhayānvitāḥ: with great devotion the devotees offer worshipful respects and paraphernalia to the Deity. The Deities of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, Lakṣmī and Nārāyaṇa, and Rāma and Sītā are very attractive to devotees, so much so that when they see the statue decorated in the temple of the Lord they become fully absorbed in thought of the Lord. That is the state of liberation. In other words, it is confirmed herewith that even a third-class devotee is in the transcendental position, above those who are trying for liberation by speculation or by other methods. Even great impersonalists like Śukadeva Gosvāmī and the four Kumāras were attracted by the beauty of the Deities in the temple, by the decorations and by the aroma of tulasī offered to the Lord, and they became devotees. Even though they were in the liberated state, instead of remaining impersonalists they were attracted by the beauty of the Lord and became devotees.", + "Here the word vilāsa is very important. Vilāsa means the activities or pastimes of the Lord. It is a prescribed duty in temple worship that not only should one visit the temple to see the Deity nicely decorated, but at the same time he should hear the recitation of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā or some similar literature, which is regularly recited in the temple. It is the system in Vṛndāvana that in every temple there is recitation of the śāstras. Even third-class devotees who have no literary knowledge or no time to read Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or Bhagavad-gītā get the opportunity to hear about the pastimes of the Lord. In this way their minds may remain always absorbed in the thought of the Lord—His form, His activities and His transcendental nature. This state of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is a liberated stage. Lord Caitanya, therefore, recommended five important processes in the discharge of devotional service: (1) to chant the holy name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, (2) to associate with devotees and serve them as far as possible, (3) to hear Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, (4) to see the decorated temple and the Deity, and, if possible, (5) to live in a place like Vṛndāvana or Mathurā. These five items alone can help a devotee to achieve the highest perfectional stage. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā and here in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

For example, the duration of life on higher planets is far, far greater than on this planet. It is said that on the moon the duration of life is such that our six months are equal to one day. We cannot even imagine the duration of life on the highest planet. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā that Brahmā's twelve hours are inconceivable even to our mathematicians. These are all descriptions of the external energy of the Lord, or māyā. Besides these, there are other opulences which the yogīs can achieve by their mystic power. They are also material. A devotee does not aspire for all these material pleasures, although they are available to him simply by wishing. By the grace of the Lord, a devotee can achieve wonderful success simply by willing. But a real devotee does not like that. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu has taught that one should not desire material opulence or material reputation, nor should one try to enjoy material beauty; he should simply aspire to be absorbed in the devotional service of the Lord, even if he does not get liberation but has to continue the process of birth and death unlimitedly.

Because the devotees accept Me as their friend, their relative, their son, preceptor, benefactor and Supreme Deity, they cannot be deprived of their possessions at any time.", + "purport": [ + "It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā that one may elevate himself to the higher planetary systems, even up to Brahmaloka, by dint of pious activities, but when the effects of such pious activities are finished, one again comes back to this earth to begin a new life of activities. Thus even though one is promoted to the higher planetary system for enjoyment and a long duration of life, still that is not a permanent settlement. But as far as the devotees are concerned, their assets—the achievement of devotional service and the consequent opulence of Vaikuṇṭha, even on this planet—are never destroyed. In this verse Kapiladeva addresses His mother as śānta-rūpā, indicating that the opulences of devotees are fixed because devotees are eternally fixed in the Vaikuṇṭha atmosphere, which is called śānta-rūpa because it is in the mode of pure goodness, undisturbed by the modes of passion and ignorance. Once one is fixed in the devotional service of the Lord, his position of transcendental service cannot be destroyed, and the pleasure and service simply increase unlimitedly. For the devotees engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, in the Vaikuṇṭha atmosphere, there is no influence of time. In the material world the influence of time destroys everything, but in the Vaikuṇṭha atmosphere there is no influence of time or of the demigods because there are no demigods in the Vaikuṇṭha planets. Here our activities are controlled by different demigods; even if we move our hand and leg, the action is controlled by the demigods. But in the Vaikuṇṭha atmosphere there is no influence of the demigods or of time; therefore there is no question of destruction. When the time element is present, there is the certainty of destruction, but when there is no time element, past, present or future, then everything is eternal. Therefore this verse uses the words na naṅkṣyanti, indicating that the transcendental opulences will never be destroyed.", + "The reason for freedom from destruction is also described. The devotees accept the Supreme Lord as the most dear personality and reciprocate with Him in different relationships. They accept the Supreme Personality of Godhead as the dearmost friend, the dearmost relative, the dearmost son, the dearmost preceptor, the dearmost well-wisher or the dearmost Deity. The Lord is eternal; therefore any relationship in which we accept Him is also eternal. It is clearly confirmed herein that the relationships cannot be destroyed, and therefore the opulences of those relationships are never destroyed. Every living entity has the propensity to love someone. We can see that if someone has no object of love, then generally he puts his love in a pet animal like a cat or a dog. Thus the eternal propensity for love in all living entities is always searching for a place to reside. From this verse we can learn that we can love the Supreme Personality of Godhead as our dearmost object—as a friend, as a son, as a preceptor or as a well-wisher—and there will be no cheating and no end to such love. We shall eternally enjoy the relationship with the Supreme Lord in different aspects. A special feature of this verse is the acceptance of the Supreme Lord as the supreme preceptor. Bhagavad-gītā is spoken directly by the Supreme Lord, and Arjuna accepted Kṛṣṇa as guru or spiritual master. Similarly, we should accept only Kṛṣṇa as the supreme spiritual master.", + "Kṛṣṇa, of course, means Kṛṣṇa and His confidential devotees; Kṛṣṇa is not alone. When we speak of Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa means Kṛṣṇa in His name, in His form, in His quality, in His abode, in His associates, etc. Kṛṣṇa is never alone because the devotees of Kṛṣṇa are not impersonalists. For example, a king is always associated with his secretary, his commander, his servant and so much paraphernalia. As soon as we accept Kṛṣṇa and His associates as our preceptors, no ill effects can destroy our knowledge. In the material world the knowledge which we acquire may change because of the influence of time, but nevertheless the conclusions received from Bhagavad-gītā, directly from the speeches of the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa, can never change. There is no use interpreting Bhagavad-gītā; it is eternal.", + "Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Lord, should be accepted as one's best friend. He will never cheat. He will always give His friendly advice and friendly protection to the devotee. If Kṛṣṇa is accepted as a son, He will never die. Here we have a very loving son or child, but the father and mother, or those who are affectionate towards him, always hope, \"May my son not die.\" But Kṛṣṇa actually never will die. Therefore those who accept Kṛṣṇa or the Supreme Lord as their son will never be bereft of their son. In many instances devotees have accepted the Deity as a son. In Bengal there are many such instances, and even after the death of the devotee, the Deity performed the śrāddha ceremony for the father. The relationship is never destroyed. People are accustomed to worship different forms of demigods, but in Bhagavad-gītā such a mentality is condemned; therefore one should be intelligent enough to worship only the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His different forms such as Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa, Sītā-Rāma and Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa. Thus he will never be cheated. By worshiping the demigods one may elevate himself to the higher planets, but during the dissolution of the material world, the deity and the abode of the deity will be destroyed. But one who worships the Supreme Personality of Godhead is promoted to the Vaikuṇṭha planet where there is no influence of time, destruction or annihilation. The conclusion is that the time influence cannot act upon devotees who have accepted the Supreme Personality of Godhead as everything." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/39.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/39.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..aafe5b5d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/39.json @@ -0,0 +1,198 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 39, + "reference": "SB 3.25.39-40", + "devanagari": "इमं लोकं तथैवामुम् आत्मानम् उभयायिनम्\nआत्मानम् अनु ये चेह ये रायः पशवो गृहाः\nविसृज्य सर्वान् अन्यांश्च माम् एवं विश्वतोमुखम्\nभजन्त्य् अनन्यया भक्त्या तान्मृत्योर् अतिपारये", + "transliteration": "imaṁ lokaṁ tathaivāmum\nātmānam ubhayāyinam\nātmānam anu ye ceha\nye rāyaḥ paśavo gṛhāḥ\nvisṛjya sarvān anyāṁś ca\nmām evaṁ viśvato-mukham\nbhajanty ananyayā bhaktyā\ntān mṛtyor atipāraye", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "imam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokam", + "meanings": [ + "world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "accordingly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amum", + "meanings": [ + "that world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "the subtle body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ubhaya", + "meanings": [ + "in both" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayinam", + "meanings": [ + "traveling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anu", + "meanings": [ + "in relationship with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "those who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "that which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "wealth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "cattle" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "houses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "visṛjya", + "meanings": [ + "having given up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvān", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyān", + "meanings": [ + "other" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvataḥ-mukham", + "meanings": [ + "the all-pervading Lord of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajanti", + "meanings": [ + "they worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananyayā", + "meanings": [ + "unflinching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktyā", + "meanings": [ + "by devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tān", + "meanings": [ + "them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛtyoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atipāraye", + "meanings": [ + "I take to the other side." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus the devotee who worships Me, the all-pervading Lord of the universe, in unflinching devotional service, gives up all aspirations to be promoted to heavenly planets or to become happy in this world with wealth, children, cattle, home or anything in relationship with the body.

The Lord promises herein that He takes His devotee to the other side of birth and death. Lord Caitanya, therefore, recommended that one who aspires to go beyond birth and death should have no material possessions. This means that one should not try to be happy in this world or to be promoted to the heavenly world, nor should he try for material wealth, children, houses or cattle.", + "How liberation is imperceptibly achieved by a pure devotee and what the symptoms are have been explained. For the conditioned soul there are two statuses of living. One status is in this present life, and the other is our preparation for the next life. If I am in the mode of goodness, then I may be preparing for promotion to the higher planets, if I am in the mode of passion then I shall remain here in a society where activity is very prominent, and if I am in the mode of ignorance I may be degraded to animal life or a lower grade of human life. But for a devotee there is no concern for this life or the next life because in any life he does not desire elevation in material prosperity or a high-grade or low-grade life. He prays to the Lord, \"My dear Lord, it does not matter where I am born, but let me be born, even as an ant, in the house of a devotee.\" A pure devotee does not pray to the Lord for liberation from this material bondage. Actually, the pure devotee never thinks that he is fit for liberation. Considering his past life and his mischievous activities, he thinks that he is fit to be sent to the lowest region of hell. If in this life I am trying to become a devotee, this does not mean that in my many past lives I was one hundred percent pious. That is not possible. A devotee, therefore, is always conscious of his real position. Only by his full surrender to the Lord, by the Lord's grace, are his sufferings made shorter. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, \"Surrender unto Me, and I will give you protection from all kinds of sinful reaction.\" That is His mercy. But this does not mean that one who has surrendered to the lotus feet of the Lord has committed no misdeeds in his past life. A devotee always prays, \"For my misdeeds, may I be born again and again, but my only prayer is that I may not forget Your service.\" The devotee has that much mental strength, and he prays to the Lord: \"May I be born again and again, but let me be born in the home of Your pure devotee so that I may again get a chance to develop myself.\"", + "A pure devotee is not anxious to elevate himself in his next birth. He has already given up that sort of hope. In any life in which one is born, as a householder, or even as an animal, he must have some children, some resources or some possessions, but a devotee is not anxious to possess anything. He is satisfied with whatever is obtainable by God's grace. He is not at all attached to improving his social status or improving the status of education of his children. He is not neglectful—he is dutiful—but he does not spend too much time on the upliftment of temporary household or social life. He fully engages in the service of the Lord and for other affairs he simply spares as much time as absolutely necessary (yathārham upayuñjataḥ). Such a pure devotee does not care for what is going to happen in the next life or in this life; he does not care even for family, children or society. He fully engages in the service of the Lord in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā that without the knowledge of the devotee, the Lord arranges for His devotee to be immediately transferred to His transcendental abode just after leaving his body. After quitting his body he does not go into the womb of another mother. The ordinary common living entity, after death, is transferred to the womb of another mother, according to his karma or activities, to take another type of body. But as far as the devotee is concerned, he is at once transferred to the spiritual world in the association of the Lord. That is the Lord's special mercy. How it is possible is explained in the following verses. Because He is all-powerful, the Lord can do anything and everything. He can excuse all sinful reactions. He can immediately transfer a person to Vaikuṇṭhaloka. That is the inconceivable power of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is favorably disposed to the pure devotees." + ], + "verse_end": 40 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/41.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/41.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..81da023c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/25/verses/41.json @@ -0,0 +1,77 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 41, + "reference": "SB 3.25.41", + "devanagari": "नान्यत्र मद्भगवतः प्रधानपुरुषेश्वरात्\nआत्मनः सर्वभूतानां भयं तीव्रं निवर्तते", + "transliteration": "nānyatra mad bhagavataḥ\npradhāna-puruṣeśvarāt\nātmanaḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ\nbhayaṁ tīvraṁ nivartate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyatra", + "meanings": [ + "otherwise" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat", + "meanings": [ + "than Myself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pradhāna-puruṣa-īśvarāt", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord of both prakṛti and puruṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of all living beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhayam", + "meanings": [ + "fear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīvram", + "meanings": [ + "terrible" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nivartate", + "meanings": [ + "is forsaken." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The terrible fear of birth and death can never be forsaken by anyone who resorts to any shelter other than Myself, for I am the almighty Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the original source of all creation, and also the Supreme Soul of all souls.", + "purport": [ + "It is indicated herein that the cycle of birth and death cannot be stopped unless one is a pure devotee of the Supreme Lord. It is said, hariṁ vinā na sṛtiṁ taranti. One cannot surpass the cycle of birth and death unless one is favored by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The same concept is confirmed herewith: one may take to the system of understanding the Absolute Truth by one's own imperfect sensual speculation, or one may try to realize the self by the mystic yoga process; but whatever one may do, unless he comes to the point of surrendering to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, no process can give him liberation. One may ask if this means that those who are undergoing so much penance and austerity by strictly following the rules and regulations are endeavoring in vain. The answer is given by Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.2.32): ye 'nye 'ravindākṣa vimukta-māninaḥ. Lord Brahmā and other demigods prayed to the Lord when Kṛṣṇa was in the womb of Devakī: \"My dear lotus-eyed Lord, there are persons who are puffed up with the thought that they have become liberated or one with God or have become God, but in spite of thinking in such a puffed-up way, their intelligence is not laudable. They are less intelligent.\" It is stated that their intelligence, whether high or low, is not even purified. In purified intelligence a living entity cannot think otherwise than to surrender. Bhagavad-gītā, therefore, confirms that purified intelligence arises in the person of a very wise man. Bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate. After many, many births, one who is actually advanced in intelligence surrenders unto the Supreme Lord.", + "Without the surrendering process, one cannot achieve liberation. The Bhāgavatam says, \"Those who are simply puffed up, thinking themselves liberated by some nondevotional process, are not polished or clear in intelligence because they have not yet surrendered unto You. In spite of executing all kinds of austerities and penances or even arriving at the brink of spiritual realization in Brahman realization, they think that they are in the effulgence of Brahman. But actually, because they have no transcendental activities, they fall down to material activities.\" One should not be satisfied simply with knowing that he is Brahman. He must engage himself in the service of the Supreme Brahman; that is bhakti. The engagement of Brahman should be the service of Parabrahman. It is said that unless one becomes Brahman one cannot serve Brahman. The Supreme Brahman is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and the living entity is also Brahman. Without realization that he is Brahman, spirit soul, an eternal servitor of the Lord, if one simply thinks that he is Brahman, then that is only theoretical. He has to realize and at the same time engage himself in the devotional service of the Lord; then he can exist in the Brahman status. Otherwise he falls down.", + "The Bhāgavatam says that because nondevotees neglect the transcendental loving service of the lotus feet of the Personality of Godhead, their intelligence is not sufficient, and therefore these persons fall down. The living entity must have some activity. If he does not engage in the activity of transcendental service, he must fall down to material activity. As soon as one falls down to material activity, there is no rescue from the cycle of birth and death. It is stated here by Lord Kapila, \"Without My mercy\" (nānyatra mad bhagavataḥ). The Lord is stated here to be Bhagavān, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, indicating that He is full of all opulences and is therefore perfectly competent to deliver one from the cycle of birth and death. He is also called pradhāna because He is the Supreme. He is equal to everyone, but to one who surrenders to Him He is especially favorable. It is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā that the Lord is equal to everyone; no one is His enemy and no one is His friend. But to one who surrenders unto Him, He is especially inclined. By the grace of the Lord, simply by surrendering unto Him one can get out of this cycle of birth and death.

The demigods are also ordinary living entities, but due to their faithfulness—their devotional service attitude—they have been promoted to such posts. These different demigods, or directors, such as Candra, Varuṇa and Vāyu, are called adhikāri-devatā. The demigods are departmental heads. The government of the Supreme Lord consists not only of one planet or two or three; there are millions of planets and millions of universes. The Supreme Personality of Godhead has a huge government, and He requires assistants. The demigods are considered His bodily limbs. These are the descriptions of Vedic literature. Under these circumstances, the sun-god, the moon-god, the fire-god and the air-god are working under the direction of the Supreme Lord.

The statements by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kapila, that under His direction the air is blowing, the fire is burning, the sun is giving heat, etc., are not sentimental.

In that way all his senses were engaged. First of all, the mind should be engaged at the lotus feet of the Lord, very steadily and naturally. Because the mind is the master of the senses, when the mind is engaged, all the senses become engaged. That is bhakti-yoga. Yoga means controlling the senses.

Due to false ego or false identification of oneself with the body and the material world, one is entrapped by māyā, but as soon as one understands that he is qualitatively the same substance as the Supreme Lord because he belongs to the same category of spirit soul and that his perpetual position is to serve, this is ātma-darśanam and hṛdaya-granthi-bhedanam, self-realization. When one can cut the knot of attachment to the material world, his understanding is called knowledge. Ātma-darśanam means to see oneself by knowledge; therefore, when one is freed from the false ego by the cultivation of real knowledge, he sees himself, and that is the ultimate necessity of human life.

Similarly, there is Superconsciousness. The example can be given of a small light and the sunlight. The sunlight is perceived everywhere, even within the room or in the sky, but the small light is experienced within a specific limit. Similarly, our consciousness is perceived within the limit of our particular body, but the Superconsciousness, or the existence of God, is perceived everywhere. He is present everywhere by His energy. It is stated in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa that whatever we find, anywhere and everywhere, is the distribution of the energy of the Supreme Lord. In Bhagavad-gītā also it is confirmed that the Lord is all-pervading and exists everywhere by His two kinds of energy, one spiritual and the other material. Both the spiritual and material energies are spread everywhere, and that is the proof of the existence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "The existence of consciousness everywhere is not temporary. It is without beginning. And because it is without beginning, it is also without end. The theory that consciousness develops at a certain stage of material combination is not accepted herein, for the consciousness which exists everywhere is said to be without beginning. The materialistic or atheistic theory stating that there is no soul, that there is no God, and that consciousness is the result of a combination of matter is not acceptable. Matter is not beginningless; it has a beginning. As this material body has a beginning, so the universal body does also. And as our material body has begun on the basis of our soul, similarly, the entire gigantic universal body has begun on the basis of the Supreme Soul. The Vedānta-sūtra says, janmādy asya. This entire material exhibition—its creation, its growth, its maintenance, and its dissolution—is an emanation from the Supreme Person. In Bhagavad-gītā also, the Lord says, \"I am the beginning and the source of birth of everything.\"", + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is described here. He is not a temporary person, nor does He have a beginning. He is without a cause, and He is the cause of all causes. Paraḥ means transcendental, beyond the creative energy. The Lord is the creator of the creative energy. We can see that there is a creative energy in the material world, but He is not under this energy. He is prakṛti-paraḥ, beyond this energy. He is not subjected to the threefold miseries created by the material energy because He is beyond it. The modes of material nature do not touch Him. It is explained here, svayaṁ-jyoti: He is light Himself. We have experience in the material world of one light's being a reflection of another, just as moonlight is a reflection of the sunlight. Sunlight is also the reflection of the brahmajyoti. Similarly, brahmajyoti, the spiritual effulgence, is a reflection of the body of the Supreme Lord. This is confirmed in the Brahma-saṁhitā: yasya prabhā prabhavataḥ. The brahmajyoti, or Brahman effulgence, is due to His bodily luster. Therefore it is said here, svayaṁ-jyoti: He Himself is light. His light is distributed in different ways, as the brahmajyoti, as sunlight and as moonlight. Bhagavad-gītā confirms that in the spiritual world there is no need of sunlight, moonlight or electricity. The Upaniṣads also confirm this; because the bodily luster of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is sufficient to illuminate the spiritual world, there is no need of sunlight, moonlight or any other light or electricity. This self-illumination also contradicts the theory that the spirit soul or the spiritual consciousness develops at a certain point in material combination. The term svayaṁ-jyoti indicates that there is no tinge of anything material or any material reaction. It is confirmed here that the concept of the Lord's all-pervasiveness is due to His illumination everywhere. We have experience that the sun is situated in one place, but the sunlight is diffused all around for millions and millions of miles. That is our practical experience. Similarly, although the supreme light is situated in His personal abode, Vaikuṇṭha or Vṛndāvana, His light is diffused not only in the spiritual world but beyond that. In the material world also, that light is reflected to the sun globe, and the sunlight is reflected by the moon globe. Thus although He is situated in His own abode, His light is distributed all over the spiritual and material worlds. The Brahma-saṁhitā confirms this (Bs. 5.37). Goloka eva nivasaty akhilātma-bhūtaḥ: He is living in Goloka, but still He is present all over the creation. He is the Supersoul of everything, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and He has innumerable transcendental qualities. It is also concluded that although He is undoubtedly a person, He is not a puruṣa of this material world. Māyāvādī philosophers cannot understand that beyond this material world there can be a person; therefore they are impersonalists.

Daivīm means \"the energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead,\" and guṇamayīm means \"invested with the three modes of material nature.\" When the material energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead appears, this guṇamayīm energy acts as a manifestation of the energies of the three modes; it acts as a covering. The energy emanated from the Supreme Personality of Godhead manifests in two ways—as an emanation from the Supreme Lord and as a covering of the Lord's face. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that the whole world is illusioned by the three modes of material nature, and thus the common conditioned soul, being covered by such energy, cannot see the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The example of a cloud is very nicely given. All of a sudden there may appear a big cloud in the sky. This cloud is perceived in two ways. To the sun the cloud is a creation of its energy, but to the ordinary common man in the conditioned state, it is a covering to the eyes; because of the cloud, the sun cannot be seen. It is not that the sun is actually covered by the cloud; only the vision of the ordinary being is covered. Similarly, although māyā cannot cover the Supreme Lord, who is beyond māyā, the material energy covers the ordinary living entities. Those conditioned souls who are covered are individual living entities, and He from whose energy māyā is created is the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "In another place in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, in the First Canto, Seventh Chapter, it is stated that by his spiritual vision Vyāsadeva saw the Supreme Lord and the material energy standing behind Him. This indicates that material energy cannot cover the Lord, just as darkness cannot cover the sun. Darkness can cover a jurisdiction which is very insignificant in comparison to that of the sun. Darkness can cover a small cave, but not the open sky. Similarly, the covering capacity of the material energy is limited and cannot act on the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is therefore called vibhu. As the appearance of a cloud is accepted by the sun, so the appearance of the material energy at a certain interval is accepted by the Lord.

It is applicable only to the prajāḥ, or those who are born with material bodies, the conditioned souls. The different kinds of living entities vary according to the modes of material nature, as explained in Bhagavad-gītā and other Vedic literature. In Bhagavad-gītā (7.12) it is very nicely explained that although the modes of goodness, passion and ignorance are born of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He is not subject to them. In other words, the energy emanating from the Supreme Personality of Godhead cannot act on Him; it acts on the conditioned souls who are covered by the material energy.

This world was created through the material energy of the Lord for the so-called enjoyment of such living entities. Why this material world was created for the sufferings of the conditioned souls is a very intricate question. There is a hint here in the word līlayā, which means for the pastimes of the Lord. The Lord wants to rectify the enjoying temperament of the conditioned souls. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā that no one is the enjoyer but the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This material energy is created, therefore, for anyone who pretends to enjoy. An example can be cited here that there is no necessity for the government's creation of a separate police department, but because it is a fact that some of the citizens will not accept the state laws, a department to deal with criminals is necessary. There is no necessity, but at the same time there is a necessity. Similarly, there was no necessity to create this material world for the sufferings of the conditioned souls, but at the same time there are certain living entities known as nitya-baddha who are eternally conditioned. We say that they have been conditioned from time immemorial because no one can trace out when the living entity, the part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, became rebellious against the supremacy of the Lord.", + "It is a fact that there are two classes of men—those who are obedient to the laws of the Supreme Lord and those who are atheists or agnostics, who do not accept the existence of God and who want to create their own laws. They want to establish that everyone can create his own laws or his own religious path. Without tracing out the beginning of the existence of these two classes, we can take it for granted that some of the living entities revolted against the laws of the Lord. Such entities are called conditioned souls, for they are conditioned by the three modes of material nature. Therefore the words guṇair vicitrāḥ are used here.", + "In this material world there are 8,400,000 species of life. As spirit souls, they are all transcendental to this material world. Why, then, do they exhibit themselves in different stages of life? The answer is given here: they are under the spell of the three modes of material nature. Because they were created by the material energy, their bodies are made of the material elements. Covered by the material body, the spiritual identity is lost, and therefore the word mumuhe is used here, indicating that they have forgotten their own spiritual identity. This forgetfulness of spiritual identity is present in the jīvas, the conditioned souls who are subject to be covered by the energy of material nature. Jñāna-gūhayā is another word used. Gūha means covering. Because the knowledge of the minute conditioned souls is covered, they are exhibited in so many species of life. It is said in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Seventh Chapter, First Canto, \"The living entities are illusioned by the material energy.\" In the Vedas also it is stated that the eternal living entities are covered by different modes and that they are called tri-colored—red, white and blue—living entities. Red is the representation of the mode of passion, white is the representation of the mode of goodness, and blue is the representation of the mode of ignorance. These modes of material nature belong to the material energy, and therefore the living entities under these different modes of material nature have different kinds of material bodies. Because they are forgetful of their spiritual identities, they think the material bodies to be themselves. To the conditioned soul, \"me\" means the material body. This is called moha, or bewilderment.", + "It is repeatedly said in the Kaṭha Upaniṣad that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is never affected by the influence of material nature.

Such pastimes of the Lord cannot be dragged to the level of the conditional activities of the living entities.

He has no responsibility; he is simply the witness of the action, but he is forced to act in that way due to his offense in his eternal relationship with Kṛṣṇa.

If he so desires, the spirit soul can change this conditional life of dualities by choosing to serve Kṛṣṇa. The living entity is the cause of his own suffering, but he can also be the cause of his eternal happiness. When he wants to engage in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, a suitable body is offered to him by the internal potency or spiritual energy of the Lord, and when he wants to satisfy his senses, a material body is offered. Thus it is his free choice to accept a spiritual body or a material body, but once the body is accepted he has to enjoy or suffer the consequences. The Māyāvādī philosopher's presentation is that the living entity enjoys his pastimes by accepting the body of a hog. This theory is not acceptable, however, because the word \"pastime\" implies voluntary acceptance for enjoyment. Therefore this interpretation is most misleading.

When the total material elements are manifested by the interaction of the three modes of material nature, the manifestation is called prakṛti. Impersonalists say that Brahman is without variegatedness and without differentiation. One may say that pradhāna is the Brahman stage, but actually the Brahman stage is not pradhāna. Pradhāna is distinct from Brahman because in Brahman there is no existence of the material modes of nature. One may argue that the mahat-tattva is also different from pradhāna because in the mahat-tattva there are manifestations. The actual explanation of pradhāna, however, is given here: when the cause and effect are not clearly manifested (avyaktam), the reaction of the total elements does not take place, and that is called pradhāna. Pradhāna is not the time element because in the time element there are actions and reactions, creation and annihilation.

This puruṣa or Paramātmā who resides within the body of the individual soul is described in Bhagavad-gītā (13.23) as the upadraṣṭā, witness, and the anumantā, sanctioning authority. The conditioned soul engages in the happiness and distress of the particular body given him by the arrangement of the external energy of the Supreme Lord. But the supreme living being, or the Paramātmā, is different from the conditioned soul. He is described in Bhagavad-gītā as maheśvara, or the Supreme Lord. He is Paramātmā, not jīvātmā. Paramātmā means the Supersoul who is sitting by the side of the conditioned soul just to sanction his activities. The conditioned soul comes to this material world in order to lord it over material nature.

The minute independence of the conditioned soul is exhibited by his marginal position. If he likes, he can forget the Supreme Personality of Godhead and come into the material existence with a false ego to lord it over material nature, but if he likes, he can turn his face to the service of the Lord. The individual living entity is given that independence. His conditional life is ended and his life becomes successful as soon as he turns his face to the Lord, but by misusing his independence he enters into material existence. Yet the Lord is so kind that, as Supersoul, He always remains with the conditioned soul. The concern of the Lord is neither to enjoy nor to suffer from the material body.

Material nature in this connection is called Brahman because it is a perverted reflection of the spiritual nature.", + "It is described in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa that the living entities belong to the spiritual nature. The potency of the Supreme Lord is spiritual, and the living entities, although they are called marginal potency, are also spiritual. If the living entities were not spiritual, this description of impregnation by the Supreme Lord would not be applicable. The Supreme Lord does not put His semina into that which is not spiritual, but it is stated here that the Supreme Person puts His semina into material nature. This means that the living entities are spiritual by nature. After impregnation, material nature delivers all kinds of living entities, beginning from the greatest living creature, Lord Brahmā, down to the insignificant ant, in all varieties of form. In Bhagavad-gītā (14.4) material nature is clearly mentioned as sarva-yoniṣu. This means that of all varieties of species—demigods, human beings, animals, birds and beasts (whatever is manifested)—material nature is the mother, and the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the seed-giving father. Generally it is experienced that the father gives life to a child but the mother gives its body; although the seed of life is given by the father, the body develops within the womb of the mother. Similarly, the spiritual living entities are impregnated into the womb of material nature, but the body, being supplied by material nature, takes on many different species and forms of life. The theory that the symptoms of life are manifest by the interaction of the twenty-four material elements is not supported here. The living force comes directly from the Supreme Personality of Godhead and is completely spiritual. Therefore, no material scientific advancement can produce life. The living force comes from the spiritual world and has nothing to do with the interaction of the material elements." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..636303ae --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 26, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 3.26.20", + "devanagari": "विश्वम् आत्मगतं व्यंजन्कूटस्थो जगदंकुरः\nस्वतेजसापिबत्तीव्रम् आत्मप्रस्वापनं तमः", + "transliteration": "viśvam ātma-gataṁ vyañjan\nkūṭastho jagad-aṅkuraḥ\nsva-tejasāpibat tīvram\nātma-prasvāpanaṁ tamaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "viśvam", + "meanings": [ + "the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-gatam", + "meanings": [ + "contained within itself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyañjan", + "meanings": [ + "manifesting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kūṭa-sthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unchangeable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagat-aṅkuraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the root of all cosmic manifestations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-tejasā", + "meanings": [ + "by its own effulgence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apibat", + "meanings": [ + "swallowed up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīvram", + "meanings": [ + "dense" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-prasvāpanam", + "meanings": [ + "which had covered the mahat-tattva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "darkness." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus, after manifesting variegatedness, the effulgent mahat-tattva, which contains all the universes within itself, which is the root of all cosmic manifestations and which is not destroyed at the time of annihilation, swallows up the darkness which covered the effulgence at the time of dissolution.", + "purport": [ + "Since the Supreme Personality of Godhead is ever existing, all-blissful and full of knowledge, His different energies are also ever existing in the dormant stage.

Meditation upon voidness is a modern invention of the fertile brain of some speculator. Actually the process of yoga meditation, as prescribed in this verse, should be fixed upon the form of Aniruddha. By meditating on Aniruddha one can become free from the agitation of acceptance and rejection.

But here intelligence is said to be the product of ego in passion. That is the distinction between mind and intelligence; mind is a product of egoism in goodness, and intelligence is a product of egoism in passion. The desire to accept something and reject something is a very important factor of the mind. Since mind is a product of the mode of goodness, if it is fixed upon the Lord of mind, Aniruddha, then the mind can be changed to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. It is stated by Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura that we always have desires. Desire cannot be stopped. But if we transfer our desires to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead, that is the perfection of life. As soon as the desire is transferred to lording it over material nature, it becomes contaminated by matter. Desire has to be purified. In the beginning, this purification process has to be carried out by the order of the spiritual master, since the spiritual master knows how the disciple's desires can be transformed into Kṛṣṇa consciousness. As far as intelligence is concerned, it is clearly stated here that it is a product of egoism in passion. By practice one comes to the point of the mode of goodness, and by surrendering or fixing the mind upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead one becomes a very great personality or mahātmā. In Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly said, sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ: \"Such a great soul is very rare.\"", + "In this verse it is clear that both kinds of senses, the senses for acquiring knowledge and the senses for action, are products of egoism in the mode of passion. And because the sense organs for activity and for acquiring knowledge require energy, therefore vital energy or life energy is also produced by egoism in the mode of passion. We can actually see, therefore, that those who are very passionate can improve in material acquisition very quickly. It is recommended in the Vedic scriptures that if one wants to encourage a person in acquiring material possessions, one should also encourage him in sex life. We naturally find that those who are addicted to sex life are also materially advanced because sex life or passionate life is the impetus for the material advancement of civilization. For those who want to make spiritual advancement, there is almost no existence of the mode of passion. Only the mode of goodness is prominent. We find that those who engage in Kṛṣṇa consciousness are materially poor, but one who has eyes can see who is the greater. Although he appears to be materially poor, a person in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is not actually a poor man, but the person who has no taste for Kṛṣṇa consciousness and appears to be very happy with material possessions is actually poor. Persons infatuated by material consciousness are very intelligent in discovering things for material comforts, but they have no access to understanding the spirit soul and spiritual life. If, therefore, anyone wants to advance in spiritual life, he has to come back to the platform of purified desire, the purified desire for devotional service. As stated in the Nārada-pañcarātra, engagement in the service of the Lord when the senses are purified in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is called pure devotion." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a9145c83 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 26, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 3.26.32", + "devanagari": "तामसाच्च विकुर्वाणाद्भगवद्वीर्यचोदितात्\nशब्दमात्रम् अभूत्तस्मान्नभः श्रोत्रं तु शब्दगम्", + "transliteration": "tāmasāc ca vikurvāṇād\nbhagavad-vīrya-coditāt\nśabda-mātram abhūt tasmān\nnabhaḥ śrotraṁ tu śabdagam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tāmasāt", + "meanings": [ + "from egoism in ignorance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikurvāṇāt", + "meanings": [ + "undergoing transformation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat-vīrya", + "meanings": [ + "by the energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "coditāt", + "meanings": [ + "impelled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śabda-mātram", + "meanings": [ + "the subtle element sound" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhūt", + "meanings": [ + "was manifested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nabhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "ether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrotram", + "meanings": [ + "the sense of hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śabda-gam", + "meanings": [ + "which catches sound." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When egoism in ignorance is agitated by the sex energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the subtle element sound is manifested, and from sound comes the ethereal sky and the sense of hearing.", + "purport": [ + "It appears from this verse that all the objects of our sense gratification are the products of egoism in ignorance.

Anāvṛttiḥ śabdāt means \"liberation by sound.\" The entire material manifestation began from sound, and sound can also end material entanglement, if it has a particular potency. The particular sound capable of doing this is the transcendental vibration Hare Kṛṣṇa. Our entanglement in material affairs has begun from material sound. Now we must purify that sound in spiritual understanding. There is sound in the spiritual world also. If we approach that sound, then our spiritual life begins, and the other requirements for spiritual advancement can be supplied.

The ear is the first sense for receiving knowledge. One must give aural reception to any knowledge one wants to receive, either material or spiritual. Therefore śrotram is very important.

Modern economic advancement for creation is also a product of hearing, and similarly, one can create a favorable field of spiritual activities by hearing from the right source. Arjuna was a gross materialist in the bodily conception of life and was suffering from the bodily concept very acutely. But simply by hearing, Arjuna became a spiritualized Kṛṣṇa conscious person. Hearing is very important, and that hearing is produced from the sky. By hearing only can we make proper use of that which already exists.

Materialists like Hiraṇyakaśipu and Rāvaṇa are worshipers of Lord Brahmā or Lord Śiva, but Prahlāda, or devotees who are in the service of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, worship the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/62.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/62.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..0808adf2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/26/verses/62.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 26, + "verse": 62, + "reference": "SB 3.26.62", + "devanagari": "एते ह्य् अभ्युत्थिता देवा नैवास्योत्थापने ऽशकन्\nपुनर् आविविशुः खानि तम् उत्थापयितुं क्रमात्", + "transliteration": "ete hy abhyutthitā devā\nnaivāsyotthāpane 'śakan\npunar āviviśuḥ khāni\ntam utthāpayituṁ kramāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ete", + "meanings": [ + "these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhyutthitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "manifested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "at all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "of the virāṭa-puruṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utthāpane", + "meanings": [ + "in waking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśakan", + "meanings": [ + "were able" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āviviśuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "they entered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "khāni", + "meanings": [ + "the apertures of the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utthāpayitum", + "meanings": [ + "to awaken" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kramāt", + "meanings": [ + "one after another." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When the demigods and presiding deities of the various senses were thus manifested, they wanted to wake their origin of appearance.

Similarly, even in this material body, when he practices devotional service under the direction of the spiritual master, he comes to the position which is without change because that is his natural duty. As stated in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, liberation means reinstatement in one's original position. The original position is one of rendering service to the Lord (bhakti-yogena, bhaktyā). When one becomes detached from material attraction and engages fully in devotional service, that is changelessness. Akartṛtva means not doing anything for sense gratification. When one does something at his own risk, there is a sense of proprietorship and therefore a reaction, but when one does everything for Kṛṣṇa, there is no proprietorship over the activities.

If one makes friendship with Kṛṣṇa, he will never be cheated, and he will get all help needed. Arousing this consciousness of the conditioned soul is the greatest service, not posing oneself as a great friend of another living entity. The power of friendship is limited. Although one claims to be a friend, he cannot be a friend unlimitedly. There is an unlimited number of living entities, and our resources are limited; therefore we cannot be of any real benefit to the people in general.

The cause of one's becoming conditioned by material nature is his thinking himself the enjoyer, the proprietor or the friend of all living entities. This false thinking is a result of contemplation on sense enjoyment. When one thinks that he is the best friend to his countrymen, to society or to humanity and he engages in various nationalistic, philanthropic and altruistic activities, all that is just so much concentration on sense gratification. The so-called national leader or humanist does not serve anyone; he serves his senses only. That is a fact. But the conditioned soul cannot understand this because he is bewildered by the spell of material nature. It is therefore recommended in this verse that one should engage very seriously in the devotional service of the Lord. This means that he should not think that he is the proprietor, benefactor, friend or enjoyer. He should always be cognizant that the real enjoyer is Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead; that is the basic principle of bhakti-yoga. One must be firmly convinced of these three principles: one should always think that Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor, Kṛṣṇa is the enjoyer and Kṛṣṇa is the friend. Not only should he understand these principles himself, but he should try to convince others and propagate Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "As soon as one engages in such serious devotional service of the Lord, naturally the propensity to falsely claim lordship over material nature disappears. That detachment is called vairāgya. Instead of being absorbed in so-called material lordship, one engages in Kṛṣṇa consciousness; that is control of consciousness. The yoga process necessitates controlling the senses. Yoga indriya-saṁyamaḥ. Since the senses are always active, their activities should be engaged in devotional service—one cannot stop their activities. If one wants to artificially stop the activities of the senses, it will be a failure. Even the great yogī Viśvāmitra, who was trying to control his senses by the yoga process, fell victim to the beauty of Menakā. There are many such instances. Unless one's mind and consciousness are fully engaged in devotional service, there is always the opportunity for the mind to become occupied with desires for sense gratification. One particular point mentioned in this verse is very significant. It is said here, prasaktam asatāṁ pathi: the mind is always attracted by asat, the temporary material existence. Because we have been associated with material nature since time immemorial, we have become accustomed to our attachment for this temporary material nature. The mind has to be fixed at the eternal lotus feet of the Supreme Lord. Sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. One has to fix the mind at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa; then everything will be very nice.

When one knows that Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is the source of everything and that everything emanates from Him (ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ), then one understands the Vedānta aphorism janmādy asya yataḥ (the original source of everything), and then he can become absorbed in bhāva, or the preliminary stage of love of Godhead.", + "Rūpa Gosvāmī explains very nicely in Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu how this bhāva, or preliminary stage of love of God, is achieved. He states that one first of all has to become faithful (śraddhayānvitaḥ). Faith is attained by controlling the senses, either by yoga practice, following the rules and regulations and practicing the sitting postures, or by engaging directly in bhakti-yoga as recommended in the previous verse. Of the nine different items of bhakti-yoga, the first and foremost is to chant and hear about the Lord. That is also mentioned here. Mat-kathā-śravaṇena ca. One may come to the standard of faithfulness by following the rules and regulations of the yoga system, and the same goal can be achieved simply by chanting and hearing about the transcendental activities of the Lord. The word ca is significant. Bhakti-yoga is direct, and the other process is indirect. But even if the indirect process is taken, there is no success unless one comes fully to the direct process of hearing and chanting the glories of the Lord. Therefore the word satyena is used here. In this connection Svāmī Śrīdhara comments that satyena means niṣkapaṭena, \"without duplicity.\" The impersonalists are full of duplicity. Sometimes they pretend to execute devotional service, but their ultimate idea is to become one with the Supreme. This is duplicity, kapaṭa. The Bhāgavatam does not allow this duplicity. In the beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is clearly stated, paramo-nirmatsarāṇām: \"This treatise of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is meant for those who are completely free from envy.\" The same point is again stressed here. Unless one is completely faithful to the Supreme Personality of Godhead and engages himself in the process of hearing and chanting the glories of the Lord, there is no possibility for liberation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/27/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/27/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3f3ffe4f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/27/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,69 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 27, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 3.27.7", + "devanagari": "सर्वभूतसमत्वेन निर्वैरेणाप्रसंगतः\nब्रह्मचर्येण मौनेन स्वधर्मेण बलीयसा", + "transliteration": "sarva-bhūta-samatvena\nnirvaireṇāprasaṅgataḥ\nbrahmacaryeṇa maunena\nsva-dharmeṇa balīyasā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sarva", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūta", + "meanings": [ + "living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samatvena", + "meanings": [ + "by seeing equally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirvaireṇa", + "meanings": [ + "without enmity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aprasaṅgataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without intimate connections" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmacaryeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by celibacy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maunena", + "meanings": [ + "by silence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-dharmeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by one's occupation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balīyasā", + "meanings": [ + "by offering the result." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In executing devotional service, one has to see every living entity equally, without enmity towards anyone yet without intimate connections with anyone.

There are various species of living entities, but a devotee does not see the outward covering; he sees the inner soul inhabiting the body. Because each and every soul is part and parcel of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he does not see any difference. That is the vision of a learned devotee. As explained in Bhagavad-gītā, a devotee or a learned sage does not see any difference between a learned brāhmaṇa, a dog, an elephant or a cow because he knows that the body is the outer covering only and that the soul is actually part and parcel of the Supreme Lord. A devotee has no enmity towards any living entity, but that does not mean that he mixes with everyone. That is prohibited. Aprasaṅgataḥ means \"not to be in intimate touch with everyone.\" A devotee is concerned with his execution of devotional service, and he should therefore mix with devotees only, in order to advance his objective. He has no business mixing with others, for although he does not see anyone as his enemy, his dealings are only with persons who engage in devotional service. A devotee should observe the vow of celibacy. Celibacy does not necessitate that one be absolutely free from sex life; satisfaction with one's wife is permitted also under the vow of celibacy. The best policy is to avoid sex life altogether. That is preferable. Otherwise, a devotee can get married under religious principles and live peacefully with a wife. A devotee should not speak needlessly. A serious devotee has no time to speak of nonsense. He is always busy in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Whenever he speaks, he speaks about Kṛṣṇa. Mauna means \"silence.\" Silence does not mean that one should not speak at all, but that he should not speak of nonsense. He should be very enthusiastic in speaking about Kṛṣṇa. Another important item described here is sva-dharmeṇa, or being exclusively occupied in one's eternal occupation, which is to act as the eternal servitor of the Lord, or to act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The next word, balīyasā, means \"offering the result of all activities to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.\" A devotee does not act on his personal account for sense gratification.

A person in the conditioned state who has no money is always found to be working very hard to earn some with the object of lording it over material nature. Kapiladeva instructs that we should not endeavor hard for things which may come automatically, without extraneous labor. The exact word used in this connection, yadṛcchayā, means that every living entity has a predestined happiness and distress in his present body; this is called the law of karma. It is not possible that simply by endeavors to accumulate more money a person will be able to do so, otherwise almost everyone would be on the same level of wealth. In reality everyone is earning and acquiring according to his predestined karma. According to the Bhāgavatam conclusion, we are sometimes faced with dangerous or miserable conditions without endeavoring for them, and similarly we may have prosperous conditions without endeavoring for them. We are advised to let these things come as predestined. We should engage our valuable time in prosecuting Kṛṣṇa consciousness. In other words, one should be satisfied by his natural condition. If by predestination one is put into a certain condition of life which is not very prosperous in comparison to another's position, one should not be disturbed. He should simply try to utilize his valuable time to advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness does not depend on any materially prosperous or distressed condition; it is free from the conditions imposed by material life.

Grains, fruits, milk and similar foods are allotted for human consumption. One should not be excessively eager to satisfy the tongue and eat that which is not meant for humanity. Particularly, a devotee should eat only prasāda, or food which is offered to the Personality of Godhead. His position is to accept the remnants of those foodstuffs. Innocent foods like grains, vegetables, fruits, flowers, and milk preparations are offered to the Lord, and therefore there is no scope for offering foods which are in the modes of passion and ignorance. A devotee should not be greedy. It is also recommended that the devotee should be muni, or thoughtful; he should always think of Kṛṣṇa and how to render better service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That should be his only anxiety. As a materialist is always thoughtful about improving his material condition, so a devotee's thoughts should always be engaged in improving his condition in Kṛṣṇa consciousness; therefore he should be a muni.", + "The next item recommended is that a devotee should live in a secluded place. Generally a common man is interested in pounds, shillings and pence, or materialistic advancement in life, which is unnecessary for a devotee. A devotee should select a place of residence where everyone is interested in devotional service. Generally, therefore, a devotee goes to a sacred place of pilgrimage where devotees live. It is recommended that he live in a place where there is no large number of ordinary men. It is very important (vivikta-śaraṇa) to live in a secluded place. The next item is śānta, or peacefulness. The devotee should not be agitated. He should be satisfied with his natural income, eat only as much as he needs to keep his health, live in a secluded place and always remain peaceful. Peace of mind is necessary for prosecuting Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "The next item is maitra, friendliness. A devotee should be friendly to everyone, but his intimate friendship should be with devotees only. With others he should be official. He may say, \"Yes, sir, what you say is all right,\" but he is not intimate with them. A devotee should, however, have compassion for persons who are innocent, who are neither atheistic nor very much advanced in spiritual realization. A devotee should be compassionate towards them and instruct them as far as possible in making advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. A devotee should always remain ātmavān, or situated in his spiritual position. He should not forget that his main concern is to make advancement in spiritual consciousness, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and he should not ignorantly identify himself with the body or the mind. Ātmā means the body or the mind, but here the word ātmavān especially means that one should be self-possessed.

When we are awake, consciousness acts in a particular way, when we are asleep it acts in a different way, and when we are in deep sleep, consciousness acts in still another way. To become Kṛṣṇa conscious, one has to become transcendental to these three stages of consciousness. Our present consciousness should be freed from all perceptions of life other than consciousness of Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is called dūrībhūtānya-darśanaḥ, which means that when one attains perfect Kṛṣṇa consciousness he does not see anything but Kṛṣṇa. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said that the perfect devotee may see many movable and immovable objects, but in everything he sees that the energy of Kṛṣṇa is acting. As soon as he remembers the energy of Kṛṣṇa, he immediately remembers Kṛṣṇa in His personal form. Therefore in all his observations he sees Kṛṣṇa only. In the Brahma-saṁhitā (Bs. 5.38) it is stated that (premāñjana-cchurita) when one's eyes are smeared with love of Kṛṣṇa, he always sees Kṛṣṇa, outside and inside. This is confirmed here; one should be freed from all other vision, and in that way he is freed from the false egoistic identification and sees himself as the eternal servitor of the Lord. Cakṣuṣevārkam: as we can see the sun without a doubt, so one who is fully developed in Kṛṣṇa consciousness sees Kṛṣṇa and His energy. By this vision one becomes ātma-dṛk, or self-realized. When the false ego of identifying the body with the self is removed, then actual vision of life is perceivable. The senses, therefore, also become purified. Real service of the Lord begins when the senses are purified. One does not have to stop the activities of the senses, but the false ego of identifying with the body has to be removed.

When one is reflected through the material contamination of the body and mind in false identification, he is in the conditional state, but when he is reflected in the pure stage he is called liberated.

Otherwise, both accepting and rejecting on the material platform or in voidness or impersonalism are imperfect conditions for the pure soul.", + "By the understanding of the pure soul, called satya-dṛk, one can see everything as a reflection of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. A concrete example can be given in this connection. A conditioned soul sees a very beautiful rose, and he thinks that the nice aromatic flower should be used for his own sense gratification. This is one kind of vision. A liberated soul, however, sees the same flower as a reflection of the Supreme Lord. He thinks, \"This beautiful flower is made possible by the superior energy of the Supreme Lord; therefore it belongs to the Supreme Lord and should be utilized in His service.\" These are two kinds of vision. The conditioned soul sees the flower for his own enjoyment, and the devotee sees the flower as an object to be used in the service of the Lord. In the same way, one can see the reflection of the Supreme Lord in his own senses, mind and body—in everything. With that correct vision, one can engage everything in the service of the Lord. It is stated in the Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu that one who has engaged everything—his vital energy, his wealth, his intelligence and his words—in the service of the Lord, or who desires to engage all these in the service of the Lord, no matter how he is situated, is to be considered a liberated soul, or satya-dṛk.

Here the word līna is very significant. The Māyāvādī philosophers recommend merging in the impersonal effulgence of Brahman; that is their ultimate goal or destination. That merging is also mentioned here. But in spite of merging, one can keep his individuality. The example given by Jīva Gosvāmī is that a green bird who enters a green tree appears to merge in the color of greenness, but actually the bird does not lose its individuality. Similarly, a living entity merged either in the material nature or in the spiritual nature does not give up his individuality. Real individuality is to understand oneself to be the eternal servitor of the Supreme Lord. This information is received from the mouth of Lord Caitanya. He said clearly, upon the inquiry of Sanātana Gosvāmī, that a living entity is the servitor of Kṛṣṇa eternally. Kṛṣṇa also confirms in Bhagavad-gītā that the living entity is eternally His part and parcel. The part and parcel is meant to serve the whole. This is individuality. It is so even in this material existence, when the living entity apparently merges in matter. His gross body is made up of five elements, his subtle body is made of mind, intelligence, false ego and contaminated consciousness, and he has five active senses and five knowledge-acquiring senses. In this way he merges in matter. But even while merged in the twenty-four elements of matter, he can keep his individuality as the eternal servitor of the Lord. Either in the spiritual nature or in the material nature, such a servitor is to be considered a liberated soul.

The two eternal potencies have somehow or other been combined, and since it is so difficult to separate one from the other, how is it possible for the individual soul to become liberated?

As long as the soul and the body are combined, we can understand that there is life. But when they are separated, there is no manifested existence of the body or the soul. This question asked by Devahūti of Kapiladeva is more or less impelled by the philosophy of voidism.

One propensity is icchā, which means desire to lord it over material nature or to be as great as the Supreme Lord. Everyone desires to be the greatest personality in this material world. Dveṣa means envy. When one becomes envious of Kṛṣṇa or the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he thinks, \"Why should Kṛṣṇa be the all and all? I'm as good as Kṛṣṇa.\" These two items, desire to be the Lord and envy of the Lord, are the beginning cause of material bondage.

There is a gulf of difference between theoretical freedom and actual freedom from material bondage. The Bhāgavatam says that if one gives up the auspicious path of devotional service and simply tries to know things by speculation, one wastes his valuable time (kliśyanti ye kevala-bodha-labdhaye). The result of such a labor of love is simply labor; there is no other result. The labor of speculation is ended only by exhaustion.

Conditional life begins only after one is infected by the modes of material nature. If someone is in contact with the police department, that does not mean that he is a criminal. As long as one does not commit criminal acts, even though there is a police department, he is not punished. Similarly, the liberated soul is not affected, although he is in the material nature. Even the Supreme Personality of Godhead is supposed to be in association with material nature when He descends, but He is not affected. One has to act in such a way that in spite of being in the material nature he is not affected by contamination. Although the lotus flower is in association with water, it does not mix with the water. That is how one has to live, as described here by the Personality of Godhead Kapiladeva (animitta-nimittena sva-dharmeṇāmalātmanā).", + "One can be liberated from all adverse circumstances simply by seriously engaging in devotional service. How this devotional service develops and becomes mature is explained here. In the beginning one has to perform his prescribed duties with a clean mind. Clean consciousness means Kṛṣṇa consciousness. One has to perform his prescribed duties in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. There is no necessity of changing one's prescribed duties; one simply has to act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. In discharging Kṛṣṇa conscious duties, one should determine whether, by his professional or occupational duties, Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is satisfied. In another place in the Bhāgavatam it is said, svanuṣṭhitasya dharmasya saṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam: everyone has some prescribed duties to perform, but the perfection of such duties will be reached only if the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hari, is satisfied by such actions. For example, Arjuna's prescribed duty was to fight, and the perfection of his fighting was tested by the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa wanted him to fight, and when he fought for the satisfaction of the Lord, that was the perfection of his professional devotional duty. On the other hand, when, contrary to the wish of Kṛṣṇa, he was not willing to fight, that was imperfect.", + "If one wants to perfect his life, then he should discharge his prescribed duties for the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa. One must act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, for such action will never produce any reaction (animitta-nimittena). This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra: All activities should be performed simply for Yajña, or the satisfaction of Viṣṇu. Anything done otherwise, without the satisfaction of Viṣṇu or Yajña, produces bondage, so here it is also prescribed by Kapila Muni that one can transcend material entanglement by acting in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, which means seriously engaging in devotional service. This serious devotional service can develop by hearing for long periods of time. Chanting and hearing is the beginning of the process of devotional service. One should associate with devotees and hear from them about the transcendental appearance, activities, disappearance, instructions, etc., of the Lord.", + "There are two kinds of śruti, or scripture. One is spoken by the Lord, and the other is spoken about the Lord and His devotees. Bhagavad-gītā is the former and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam the latter. One must hear these scriptures repeatedly from reliable sources in order to become fixed in serious devotional service. Through engagement in such devotional service one becomes freed from the contamination of māyā. It is stated in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that hearing about the Supreme Personality of Godhead cleanses the heart of all contamination caused by the influence of the three modes of material nature. By continuous, regular hearing, the effects of the contamination of lust and greed to enjoy or lord it over material nature diminish, and when lust and greed diminish, one then becomes situated in the mode of goodness. This is the stage of Brahman realization or spiritual realization. In this way one becomes fixed on the transcendental platform. Remaining fixed on the transcendental platform is liberation from material entanglement." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/27/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/27/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9b5741e2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/27/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,63 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 27, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 3.27.22", + "devanagari": "ज्ञानेन दृष्टतत्त्वेन वैराग्येण बलीयसा\nतपोयुक्तेन योगेन तीव्रेणात्मसमाधिना", + "transliteration": "jñānena dṛṣṭa-tattvena\nvairāgyeṇa balīyasā\ntapo-yuktena yogena\ntīvreṇātma-samādhinā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "jñānena", + "meanings": [ + "in knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭa-tattvena", + "meanings": [ + "with vision of the Absolute Truth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vairāgyeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "with renunciation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balīyasā", + "meanings": [ + "very strong" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ-yuktena", + "meanings": [ + "by engagement in austerity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogena", + "meanings": [ + "by mystic yoga" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīvreṇa", + "meanings": [ + "firmly fixed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-samādhinā", + "meanings": [ + "by self-absorption." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "This devotional service has to be performed strongly in perfect knowledge and with transcendental vision.

The spiritual sky, which is known as kaivalya, is simply blissful light on all sides, and it is under the protection of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham: the impersonal Brahman effulgence rests on the body of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In other words, the bodily effulgence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is kaivalya, or impersonal Brahman. In that impersonal effulgence there are spiritual planets, which are known as Vaikuṇṭhas, chief of which is Kṛṣṇaloka. Some devotees are elevated to the Vaikuṇṭha planets, and some are elevated to the planet of Kṛṣṇaloka. According to the desire of the particular devotee, he is offered a particular abode, which is known as sva-saṁsthāna, his desired destination. By the grace of the Lord the self-realized devotee engaged in devotional service understands his destination even while in the material body.

When one is transferred to the spiritual world, he gives up both the subtle and gross bodies of this material world. He enters the spiritual sky in his pure spiritual body and is stationed in one of the spiritual planets. Although the impersonalists also reach that spiritual sky after giving up the subtle and gross material bodies, they are not placed in the spiritual planets; as they desire, they are allowed to merge in the spiritual effulgence emanating from the transcendental body of the Lord.

Even Patañjali explains that the target of all yoga is Viṣṇu. Aṣṭāṅga-yoga is therefore part of Vaiṣṇava practice because its ultimate goal is realization of Viṣṇu.

The real purpose of controlling the mind by the prescribed method of clearing the passage of the life air is achieved immediately if one fixes his mind directly on the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa.

After exhaling, one can keep the air outside for some time and then inhale. The nerves through which inhalation and exhalation are conducted are technically called iḍa and piṅgala. The ultimate purpose of clearing the iḍa and piṅgala passages is to divert the mind from material enjoyment. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, one's mind is his enemy, and one's mind is also his friend; its position varies according to the different dealings of the living entity. If we divert our mind to thoughts of material enjoyment, then our mind becomes an enemy, and if we concentrate our mind on the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, then our mind is a friend. By the yoga system of pūraka, kumbhaka and recaka or by directly fixing the mind on the sound vibration of Kṛṣṇa or on the form of Kṛṣṇa, the same purpose is achieved. In Bhagavad-gītā (8.8) it is said that one must practice the breathing exercise (abhyāsa-yoga-yuktena).

It is not that one who meditates on the form within the mind sees differently from one who worships the form in the temple. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is absolute, and there is therefore no difference between the two. The impersonalists, who desire to disregard the eternal form of the Lord, imagine some round figure. They especially prefer the oṁkāra, which also has form.

The pure devotee of the Lord and the Lord Himself are nondifferent. It is sometimes feasible to chant the name of a holy devotee. This is a very sanctified process. Lord Caitanya was once chanting the holy names of the gopīs. He was chanting, \"Gopī! Gopī! Gopī!\" when His students criticized Him: \"Why are You chanting the names of the gopīs? Why not Kṛṣṇa?\" Lord Caitanya was irritated by the criticism, and so there was some misunderstanding between Him and His students.

Some of them, such as Prahlāda Mahārāja and Bali Mahārāja, were born of demoniac families. Prahlāda Mahārāja's father was a demon, and Bali Mahārāja was the grandson of Prahlāda Mahārāja, but still they have become famous because of their association with the Lord. Anyone who is eternally associated with the Lord is glorified with the Lord.

To think of the Lord as a whole may sometimes be impersonal; therefore, it is recommended here that one first think of His lotus feet, then His ankles, then the thighs, then the waist, then the chest, then the neck, then the face and so on.

The same principle is described here. Lord Śiva is important because he is holding on his head the holy Ganges water which has its origin in the footwash of Lord Viṣṇu. In the Hari-bhakti-vilāsa by Sanātana Gosvāmī it is said that anyone who puts the Supreme Lord and the demigods, including Lord Śiva and Lord Brahmā, on the same level, at once becomes a pāṣaṇḍī, or atheist.

This dirt is like a mountain, but a mountain can be shattered when hit by a thunderbolt. Meditating on the lotus feet of the Lord acts like a thunderbolt on the mountain of dirt in the mind of the yogī. If a yogī wants to shatter the mountain of dirt in his mind, he should concentrate on the lotus feet of the Lord and not imagine something void or impersonal. Because the dirt has accumulated like a solid mountain, one must meditate on the lotus feet of the Lord for quite a long time. For one who is accustomed to thinking of the lotus feet of the Lord constantly, however, it is a different matter.

Bhagavataḥ means of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu, and no one else. Another significant phrase in this verse is śivaḥ śivo 'bhūt. By his constitutional position, Lord Śiva is always great and auspicious, but since he has accepted on his head the Ganges water which emanated from the lotus feet of the Lord, he has become even more auspicious and important.

The gem itself becomes more beautiful because it is situated on the neck of the Lord. A yogī is therefore recommended to meditate upon the Lord's neck. The Lord's transcendental form can either be meditated upon in the mind or placed in a temple in the form of a statue and decorated in such a way that everyone can contemplate it. Temple worship, therefore, is meant for persons who are not so advanced that they can meditate upon the form of the Lord. There is no difference between constantly visiting the temple and directly seeing the transcendental form of the Lord; they are of equal value. The advantageous position of the yogī is that he can sit anywhere in a solitary place and meditate upon the form of the Lord. A less advanced person, however, has to go to the temple, and as long as he does not go to the temple he is unable to see the form of the Lord. Either by hearing, seeing or meditating, the objective is the transcendental form of the Lord; there is no question of voidness or impersonalism. The Lord can bestow the blessings of transcendental pleasure upon either the visitor of the temple, the meditator-yogī or one who hears about the Lord's transcendental form from scriptures like the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or Bhagavad-gītā. There are nine processes for executing devotional service, of which smaraṇam, or meditation, is one. Yogīs take advantage of the process of smaraṇam, whereas bhakti-yogīs take special advantage of the process of hearing and chanting." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/28/verses/27.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/28/verses/27.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..179a94a7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/28/verses/27.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 28, + "verse": 27, + "reference": "SB 3.28.27", + "devanagari": "बाहूंश्च मन्दरगिरेः परिवर्तनेन निर्णिक्तबाहुवलयान् अधिलोकपालान्\nसंचिन्तयेद्दशशतारम् असह्यतेजः शंखं च तत्करसरोरुहराजहंसम्", + "transliteration": "bāhūṁś ca mandara-gireḥ parivartanena\nnirṇikta-bāhu-valayān adhiloka-pālān\nsañcintayed daśa-śatāram asahya-tejaḥ\nśaṅkhaṁ ca tat-kara-saroruha-rāja-haṁsam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bāhūn", + "meanings": [ + "the arms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mandara-gireḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of Mount Mandara" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parivartanena", + "meanings": [ + "by the revolving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirṇikta", + "meanings": [ + "polished" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bāhu-valayān", + "meanings": [ + "the arm ornaments" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhiloka-pālān", + "meanings": [ + "the source of the controllers of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sañcintayet", + "meanings": [ + "one should meditate on" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daśa-śata-aram", + "meanings": [ + "the Sudarśana disc (ten hundred spokes)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asahya-tejaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "dazzling luster" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaṅkham", + "meanings": [ + "the conch" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-kara", + "meanings": [ + "in the hand of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saroruha", + "meanings": [ + "lotuslike" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāja-haṁsam", + "meanings": [ + "like a swan." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The yogī should further meditate upon the Lord's four arms, which are the source of all the powers of the demigods who control the various functions of material nature.

In answer to such questions, this verse explains that the material body of a liberated soul is taken charge of by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is not acting due to the living force of the living entity; it is simply acting as a reaction to past activities. Even after being switched off, an electric fan moves for some time. That movement is not due to the electric current, but is a continuation of the last movement; similarly, although a liberated soul appears to be acting just like an ordinary man, his actions are to be accepted as the continuation of past activities. In a dream one may see himself expanded through many bodies, but when awake he can understand that those bodies were all false. Similarly, although a liberated soul has the by-products of the body—children, wife, house, etc.—he does not identify himself with those bodily expansions. He knows that they are all products of the material dream. The gross body is made of the gross elements of matter, and the subtle body is made of mind, intelligence, ego and contaminated consciousness.

Arjuna was a warrior; he had no time to study Vedānta, or other highly intellectual books. The damsels in Vrajadhāma were girls born of the vaiśya class, and they engaged in protecting cows and producing agriculture. Kṛṣṇa's foster father, Nanda Mahārāja, and his associates were all vaiśyas. They were not at all educated, but they could serve Kṛṣṇa by loving Him and by offering everything to Him. Similarly, there are many instances in which caṇḍālas, or those lower than śūdras, have served Kṛṣṇa. Also, the sage Vidura was considered a śūdra because his mother happened to be śūdra. There are no distinctions, for it is declared by the Lord in Bhagavad-gītā that anyone engaged specifically in devotional service is elevated to the transcendental position without a doubt. Everyone's prescribed duty is glorious if it is performed in devotional service of the Lord, without desire for profit. Such loving service must be performed without reason, without impediment and spontaneously. Kṛṣṇa is lovable, and one has to serve Him in whatever capacity he can. That is pure devotional service.", + "Another significant phrase in this verse is nātihiṁsreṇa (with minimum violence or sacrifice of life). Even if a devotee has to commit violence, it should not be done beyond what is necessary. Sometimes the question is put before us: \"You ask us not to eat meat, but you are eating vegetables. Do you think that is not violence?\" The answer is that eating vegetables is violence and vegetarians are also committing violence against other living entities because vegetables also have life. Nondevotees are killing cows, goats and so many other animals for eating purposes, and a devotee who is vegetarian is also killing. But here, significantly, it is stated that every living entity has to live by killing another entity; that is the law of nature.

This is the vision of a devotee whose devotional service is in the highest stage of bhāva, or love of Godhead, whereas a neophyte's worship in the temple is a matter of routine duty.", + "Temple Deity worship is one of the functions of a devotee. He goes regularly to see the Deity nicely decorated, and with veneration and respect he touches the lotus feet of the Lord and presents offerings of worship, such as fruits, flowers and prayers. At the same time, to advance in devotional service, a devotee should see other living entities as spiritual sparks, parts and parcels of the Supreme Lord. A devotee is to offer respect to every entity that has a relationship with the Lord. Because every living entity originally has a relationship with the Lord as part and parcel, a devotee should try to see all living entities on the same equal level of spiritual existence. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, a paṇḍita, one who is learned, sees equally a very learned brāhmaṇa, a śūdra, a hog, a dog and a cow. He does not see the body, which is only an outward dress. He does not see the dress of a brāhmaṇa, or that of a cow or of a hog. He sees the spiritual spark, part and parcel of the Supreme Lord. If a devotee does not see every living entity as part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, he is considered prākṛta-bhakta, a materialistic devotee. He is not completely situated on the spiritual platform; rather, he is in the lowest stage of devotion. He does, however, show all respect to the Deity.", + "Although a devotee sees all living entities on the level of spiritual existence, he is not interested in associating with everyone. Simply because a tiger is part and parcel of the Supreme Lord does not mean that we embrace him because of his spiritual relationship with the Supreme Lord. We must associate only with persons who have developed Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "We should befriend and offer special respect to persons who are developed in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Other living entities are undoubtedly part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, but because their consciousness is still covered and not developed in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, we should renounce their association. It is said by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura that even if one is a Vaiṣṇava, if he is not of good character, his company should be avoided, although he may be offered the respect of a Vaiṣṇava. Anyone who accepts Viṣṇu as the Supreme Personality of Godhead is accepted as a Vaiṣṇava, but a Vaiṣṇava is expected to develop all the good qualities of the demigods.", + "The exact meaning of the word sattvena is given by Śrīdhara Svāmī as being synonymous with dhairyeṇa, or patience. One must perform devotional service with great patience. One should not give up the execution of devotional service because one or two attempts have not been successful. One must continue. Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī also confirms that one should be very enthusiastic and execute devotional service with patience and confidence. Patience is necessary for developing the confidence that \"Kṛṣṇa will certainly accept me because I am engaging in devotional service.\" One has only to execute service according to the rules and regulations to insure success." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/29/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/29/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e85f2495 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/29/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,84 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 29, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 3.29.17", + "devanagari": "महतां बहुमानेन दीनानाम् अनुकम्पया\nमैत्र्या चैवात्मतुल्येषु यमेन नियमेन च", + "transliteration": "mahatāṁ bahu-mānena\ndīnānām anukampayā\nmaitryā caivātma-tulyeṣu\nyamena niyamena ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "mahatām", + "meanings": [ + "to the great souls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahu-mānena", + "meanings": [ + "with great respect" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dīnānām", + "meanings": [ + "to the poor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anukampayā", + "meanings": [ + "with compassion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maitryā", + "meanings": [ + "with friendship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-tulyeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "to persons who are equals" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yamena", + "meanings": [ + "with control of the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niyamena", + "meanings": [ + "with regulation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The pure devotee should execute devotional service by giving the greatest respect to the spiritual master and the ācāryas.

Niyamena: one should offer the greatest respect to the ācāryas according to the standard regulations. A devotee should also be compassionate to the poor. This does not refer to those who are poverty-stricken materially. According to devotional vision, a man is poor if he is not in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. A man may be very rich materially, but if he is not Kṛṣṇa conscious, he is considered poor. On the other hand, many ācāryas, such as Rūpa Gosvāmī and Sanātana Gosvāmī, used to live beneath trees every night. Superficially it appeared that they were very poverty-stricken, but from their writings we can understand that in spiritual life they were the richest personalities.", + "A devotee shows compassion to those poor souls who are wanting in spiritual knowledge by enlightening them in order to elevate them to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That is one of the duties of a devotee. He should also make friendship with persons who are on an equal level with himself or who have the same understanding that he does. For a devotee, there is no point in making friendships with ordinary persons; he should make friendship with other devotees so that by discussing among themselves, they may elevate one another on the path of spiritual understanding.

Friendship should be cemented between persons with mutual interests and understanding. Such persons are said to be sva-jāti, \"of the same caste.\" The devotee should avoid a person whose character is not fixed in the standard understanding; even though he may be a Vaiṣṇava or a devotee of Kṛṣṇa, if his character is not correctly representative, then he should be avoided.

Lord Caitanya has given special stress to chanting of these holy names of the Lord as the basic principle of spiritual advancement. Another word used here is ārjavena, meaning \"without diplomacy.\" A devotee should not make plans out of self-interest. Of course preachers sometimes have to make some plan to execute the mission of the Lord under proper guidance, but regarding personal self-interest, a devotee should always be without diplomacy, and he should avoid the company of persons who are not advancing in spiritual life. Another word is ārya. Āryans are persons who are advancing in knowledge of Kṛṣṇa consciousness as well as in material prosperity. The difference between the Āryan and non-Āryan, the sura and asura, is in their standards of spiritual advancement. Association with persons who are not spiritually advanced is forbidden. Lord Caitanya advised, asat-saṅga-tyāga. One should avoid persons who are attached to the temporary. Asat is one who is too materially attached, who is not a devotee of the Lord and who is too attached to women or enjoyable material things. Such a person, according to Vaiṣṇava philosophy, is a persona non grata.", + "A devotee should not be proud of his acquisitions. The symptoms of a devotee are meekness and humility.

Firstly, however, taking some leaves, twigs or fruit from a tree or plant does not kill the plant. Besides that, jīvāhiṁsā means that since every living entity has to pass through a particular type of body according to his past karma, although every living entity is eternal, he should not be disturbed in his gradual evolution. A devotee has to execute the principles of devotional service exactly as they are, and he must know that however insignificant a living entity may be, the Lord is present within him.

We should not, at the same time, misunderstand that the Supersoul situated in the heart of an animal like a hog and the Supersoul situated in the heart of a learned brāhmaṇa are different.

Here it is clearly stated, puruṣaḥ puruṣaṁ vrajet: The puruṣa, the living entity, goes to the Supreme Person. The Supreme Personality of Godhead and the living entity are qualitatively one; both are defined as puruṣa. The quality of puruṣa exists both in the Supreme Godhead and in the living entity. Puruṣa means enjoyer, and the spirit of enjoyment is present both in the living entity and in the Supreme Lord. The difference is that the quantity of enjoyment is not equal. The living entity cannot experience the same quantity of enjoyment as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. An analogy may be made with a rich man and a poor man: The propensity for enjoyment is present in both, but the poor man cannot enjoy in the same quantity as the rich man. When the poor man dovetails his desires with those of the rich man, however, and when there is cooperation between the poor man and the rich man, or between the big and the small man, then the enjoyment is shared equally.

A living entity who wants to enjoy on his personal account and not cooperate with the Supreme Lord is engaged in materialistic life. As soon as he dovetails his enjoyment with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is engaged in spiritual life. An example may be cited here: The different limbs of the body cannot enjoy life independently; they must cooperate with the whole body and supply food to the stomach. In so doing, all the different parts of the body enjoy equally in cooperation with the whole body. That is the philosophy of acintya-bhedābheda, simultaneous oneness and difference. The living entity cannot enjoy life in opposition to the Supreme Lord; he has to dovetail his activities with Him by practicing bhakti-yoga.", + "It is said herein that one can approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead by either the yoga process or the bhakti-yoga process. This indicates that factually there is no difference between yoga and bhakti-yoga because the target of both is Viṣṇu. In the modern age, however, a yoga process has been manufactured which aims at something void and impersonal. Actually, yoga means meditation on the form of Lord Viṣṇu.

Apart from Bhagavad-gītā, in every society a man is known according to his quality and work. For example, when a man is constructing wooden furniture, he is called a carpenter, and a man who works with an anvil and iron is called a blacksmith. Similarly, a man who is engaged in the medical or engineering fields has a particular duty and designation. All these human activities have been divided by the Supreme Lord into four varṇas, namely brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra.

In Bhagavad-gītā it is stated that even though a person engaged in the practice of the yoga system may not finish perfectly and may fall down for some reason or other, his next life as a human being is guaranteed. It is stated that such a person, who has fallen from the path of yoga practice, is given a chance in his next life to take birth in a very rich family or in a very pious family. It is interpreted that \"rich family\" refers to a big mercantile family because generally people who engage in trades and mercantile business are very rich. One who engaged in the process of self-realization or connecting with the Supreme Absolute Truth but fell short is allowed to take birth in such a rich family, or he is allowed to take birth in the family of pious brāhmaṇas; either way, he is guaranteed to appear in human society in his next life. It can be concluded that if someone is not willing to enter into hellish life, as in Tāmisra or Andha-tāmisra, then he must take to the process of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, which is the first-class yoga system, because even if one is unable to attain complete Kṛṣṇa consciousness in this life, he is guaranteed at least to take his next birth in a human family.

He directs material nature to supply a particular type of body to the individual soul according to the result of his work, and the material nature supplies it. Here one word, retaḥ-kaṇāśrayaḥ, is very significant because it indicates that it is not the semina of the man that creates life within the womb of a woman; rather, the living entity, the soul, takes shelter in a particle of semina and is then pushed into the womb of a woman. Then the body develops. There is no possibility of creating a living entity without the presence of the soul simply by sexual intercourse.

The individual soul becomes repentant that he forgot his constitutional position, wanted to become one with the Supreme Soul and tried his best to lord it over material nature. He has been baffled, and therefore he is repentant. At that time, Supersoul, or the relationship between the Supersoul and the individual soul, is realized.

The human form of life is supposed to be the highest, for it offers consciousness for getting out of the clutches of birth and death. The fortunate child in the womb of his mother realizes his superior position and is thereby distinguished from other bodies. Animals in bodies lower than that of the human being are conscious only as far as their bodily distress and happiness are concerned; they cannot think of more than their bodily necessities of life—eating, sleeping, mating and defending. But in the human form of life, by the grace of God, the consciousness is so developed that a man can evaluate his exceptional position and thus realize the self and the Supreme Lord.", + "The word dama-śarīrī means that we have a body in which we can control the senses and the mind.

The distinction between an animal and a man is that the animal cannot control himself and has no sense of decency, whereas the human being has the sense of decency and can control himself. If this controlling power is not exhibited by the human being, then he is no better than an animal. By controlling the senses, or by the process of yoga regulation, one can understand the position of his self, the Supersoul, the world and their interrelation; everything is possible by controlling the senses.

One should try to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead and his own self also. To think oneself the same as the Supreme is not self-realization. Here it is clearly explained that the Supreme Lord is anādi, or purāṇa, and He has no other cause. The living entity is born of the Supreme Godhead as part and parcel. It is confirmed in the Brahma-saṁhitā, anādir ādir govindaḥ: Govinda, the Supreme Person, has no cause. He is unborn. But the living entity is born of Him. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, mamaivāṁśaḥ: both the living entity and the Supreme Lord are unborn, but it has to be understood that the supreme cause of the part and parcel is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Brahma-saṁhitā therefore says that everything has come from the Supreme Personality of Godhead (sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam). The Vedānta-sūtra confirms this also. Janmādy asya yataḥ: the Absolute Truth is the original source of everyone's birth. Kṛṣṇa also says in Bhagavad-gītā, ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ: \"I am the source of birth of everything, including Brahmā and Lord Śiva and the living entities.\" This is self-realization.

Māyā means illusion, or that which is actually not. In the material world, everyone is identifying with his body. This false egoistic consciousness of \"I am this body\" at once develops after the child comes out of the womb. The mother and other relatives are awaiting the child, and as soon as he is born, the mother feeds him, and everyone takes care of him. The living entity soon forgets his position and becomes entangled in bodily relationships. The entire material existence is entanglement in this bodily conception of life.

Therefore the child is praying that he prefers to remain within the womb rather than come out. It is said that Śukadeva Gosvāmī, on this consideration, remained for sixteen years within the womb of his mother; he did not want to be entangled in false bodily identification. After cultivating such knowledge within the womb of his mother, he came out at the end of sixteen years and immediately left home so that he might not be captured by the influence of māyā. The influence of māyā is also explained in Bhagavad-gītā as insurmountable. But insurmountable māyā can be overcome simply by Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te (Bg. 7.14): whoever surrenders unto the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa can get out of this false conception of life. By the influence of māyā only, one forgets his eternal relationship with Kṛṣṇa and identifies himself with his body and the by-products of the body—namely wife, children, society, friendship and love.

In reply to this question, Lord Kṛṣṇa said that it is lust which causes a living entity to glide down from his exalted position to the abominable condition of material existence. This lust circumstantially changes into anger. Both lust and anger stand on the platform of the mode of passion.

Anger also can be utilized towards a person who is atheistic or who is envious of the Personality of Godhead. As we have fallen in this material existence because of our lust and anger, the same two qualities can be utilized for the purpose of advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and one can elevate himself again to his former pure spiritual position.

According to Vedānta-sūtra, we can understand that everything is generated from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is enunciated there, janmādy asya yataḥ. This means that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, or the Supreme Person, Brahman, the Absolute Truth, is the source from whom everything emanates. The captivating power of woman, and man's susceptibility to such attraction, must also exist in the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the spiritual world and must be represented in the transcendental pastimes of the Lord.", + "The Lord is the Supreme Person, the supreme male. As a common male wants to be attracted by a female, similarly, that propensity is in the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He also wants to be attracted by the beautiful features of a woman. Now the question is, if He wants to be captivated by such womanly attraction, would He be attracted by any material woman? It is not possible. Even persons who are in this material existence can give up womanly attraction if they are attracted by the Supreme Brahman. Such was the case with Haridāsa Ṭhākura. A beautiful prostitute tried to attract him in the dead of night, but since he was situated in devotional service, in transcendental love of Godhead, Haridāsa Ṭhākura was not captivated. Rather, he turned the prostitute into a great devotee by his transcendental association. This material attraction, therefore, certainly cannot attract the Supreme Lord. When He wants to be attracted by a woman, He has to create such a woman from His own energy. That woman is Rādhārāṇī. It is explained by the Gosvāmīs that Rādhārāṇī is the manifestation of the pleasure potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. When the Supreme Lord wants to derive transcendental pleasure, He has to create a woman from His internal potency. Thus the tendency to be attracted by womanly beauty is natural because it exists in the spiritual world. In the material world it is reflected pervertedly, and therefore there are so many inebrieties.", + "Instead of being attracted by material beauty, if one is accustomed to be attracted by the beauty of Rādhārāṇī and Kṛṣṇa, then the statement in Bhagavad-gītā, paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate, holds true. When one is attracted by the transcendental beauty of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, he is no longer attracted by material feminine beauty. That is the special significance of Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa worship. That is testified to by Yāmunācārya. He says, \"Since I have become attracted by the beauty of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, when there is attraction for a woman or a memory of sex life with a woman, I at once spit on it, and my face turns in disgust.\" When we are attracted by Madana-mohana and the beauty of Kṛṣṇa and His consorts, then the shackles of conditioned life, namely the beauty of a material woman, cannot attract us." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/39.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/39.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c3a6e543 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/39.json @@ -0,0 +1,118 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 31, + "verse": 39, + "reference": "SB 3.31.39", + "devanagari": "संगं न कुर्यात्प्रमदासु जातु योगस्य पारं परम् आरुरुक्षुः\nमत्सेवया प्रतिलब्धात्मलाभो वदन्ति या निरयद्वारम् अस्य", + "transliteration": "saṅgaṁ na kuryāt pramadāsu jātu\nyogasya pāraṁ param ārurukṣuḥ\nmat-sevayā pratilabdhātma-lābho\nvadanti yā niraya-dvāram asya", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saṅgam", + "meanings": [ + "association" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuryāt", + "meanings": [ + "one should make" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pramadāsu", + "meanings": [ + "with women" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jātu", + "meanings": [ + "ever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogasya", + "meanings": [ + "of yoga" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāram", + "meanings": [ + "culmination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "topmost" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārurukṣuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who aspires to reach" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat-sevayā", + "meanings": [ + "by rendering service unto Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratilabdha", + "meanings": [ + "obtained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-lābhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "self-realization" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vadanti", + "meanings": [ + "they say" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "which women" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niraya", + "meanings": [ + "to hell" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvāram", + "meanings": [ + "the gateway" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "of the advancing devotee." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One who aspires to reach the culmination of yoga and has realized his self by rendering service unto Me should never associate with an attractive woman, for such a woman is declared in the scripture to be the gateway to hell for the advancing devotee.", + "purport": [ + "The culmination of yoga is full Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

The association of woman is very much restricted in the Vedic civilization.

If, however, one wants to stick to continued existence in the material world, he may indulge in female association unrestrictedly." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c20d455d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 31, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 3.31.40", + "devanagari": "योपयाति शनैर्माया योषिद्देवविनिर्मिता\nताम् ईक्षेतात्मनो मृत्युं तृणैः कूपम् इवावृतम्", + "transliteration": "yopayāti śanair māyā\nyoṣid deva-vinirmitā\ntām īkṣetātmano mṛtyuṁ\ntṛṇaiḥ kūpam ivāvṛtam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yā", + "meanings": [ + "she who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upayāti", + "meanings": [ + "approaches" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "slowly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyā", + "meanings": [ + "representation of māyā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoṣit", + "meanings": [ + "woman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deva", + "meanings": [ + "by the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vinirmitā", + "meanings": [ + "created" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "her" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īkṣeta", + "meanings": [ + "one must regard" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛtyum", + "meanings": [ + "death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tṛṇaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with grass" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kūpam", + "meanings": [ + "a well" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āvṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "covered." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The woman created by the Lord is the representation of māyā, and one who associates with such māyā by accepting services must certainly know that this is the way of death, just like a blind well covered with grass.", + "purport": [ + "Sometimes it happens that a rejected well is covered by grass, and an unwary traveler who does not know of the existence of the well falls down, and his death is assured.

This is restricted for those who aspire to ascend to the transcendental platform. Even fifty years ago in Hindu society, such association was restricted. A wife could not see her husband during the daytime. Householders even had different residential quarters. The internal quarters of a residential house were for the woman, and the external quarters were for the man.

Bhagavad-gītā confirms this; a man gets his next life's birth according to what he thinks of at the time of death. If someone is too attached to his wife, naturally he thinks of his wife at the time of death, and in his next life he takes the body of a woman. Similarly, if a woman thinks of her husband at the time of death, then naturally she gets the body of a man in the next life. In the Hindu scriptures, therefore, woman's chastity and devotion to man is greatly emphasized. A woman's attachment to her husband may elevate her to the body of a man in her next life, but a man's attachment to a woman will degrade him, and in his next life he will get the body of a woman. We should always remember, as it is stated in Bhagavad-gītā, that both the gross and subtle material bodies are dresses; they are the shirt and coat of the living entity. To be either a woman or a man only involves one's bodily dress. The soul in nature is actually the marginal energy of the Supreme Lord. Every living entity, being classified as energy, is supposed to be originally a woman, or one who is enjoyed. In the body of a man there is a greater opportunity to get out of the material clutches; there is less opportunity in the body of a woman. In this verse it is indicated that the body of a man should not be misused through forming an attachment to women and thus becoming too entangled in material enjoyment, which will result in getting the body of a woman in the next life. A woman is generally fond of household prosperity, ornaments, furniture and dresses. She is satisfied when the husband supplies all these things sufficiently. The relationship between man and woman is very complicated, but the substance is that one who aspires to ascend to the transcendental stage of spiritual realization should be very careful in accepting the association of a woman. In the stage of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, however, such restriction of association may be slackened because if a man's and woman's attachment is not to each other but to Kṛṣṇa, then both of them are equally eligible to get out of the material entanglement and reach the abode of Kṛṣṇa. As it is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, anyone who seriously takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness—whether in the lowest species of life, or a woman, or of the less intelligent classes, such as the mercantile or laborer class—will go back home, back to Godhead, and reach the abode of Kṛṣṇa. A man should not be attached to a woman, nor should a woman be attached to a man. Both man and woman should be attached to the service of the Lord. Then there is the possibility of liberation from material entanglement for both of them." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/42.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/42.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..65513590 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/42.json @@ -0,0 +1,95 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 31, + "verse": 42, + "reference": "SB 3.31.42", + "devanagari": "ताम् आत्मनो विजानीयात्पत्यपत्यगृहात्मकम्\nदैवोपसादितं मृत्युं मृगयोर्गायनं यथा", + "transliteration": "tām ātmano vijānīyāt\npaty-apatya-gṛhātmakam\ndaivopasāditaṁ mṛtyuṁ\nmṛgayor gāyanaṁ yathā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord's māyā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of herself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijānīyāt", + "meanings": [ + "she should know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pati", + "meanings": [ + "husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apatya", + "meanings": [ + "children" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛha", + "meanings": [ + "house" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmakam", + "meanings": [ + "consisting of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daiva", + "meanings": [ + "by the authority of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upasāditam", + "meanings": [ + "brought about" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛtyum", + "meanings": [ + "death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛgayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the hunter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gāyanam", + "meanings": [ + "the singing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "A woman, therefore, should consider her husband, her house and her children to be the arrangement of the external energy of the Lord for her death, just as the sweet singing of the hunter is death for the deer.", + "purport": [ + "In these instructions of Lord Kapiladeva it is explained that not only is woman the gateway to hell for man, but man is also the gateway to hell for woman.

The liberated person is described in Bhagavad-gītā: one who engages in uninterrupted devotional service to the Lord, having surpassed the stringent laws of material nature, is understood to be situated in Brahman.", + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is beyond the material creation. It is admitted even by impersonalists like Śaṅkarācārya that Nārāyaṇa is transcendental to this material creation. As such, when one actually engages in the service of the Lord in various forms, either Nārāyaṇa, or Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa, or Sītā-Rāma, he is understood to be on the platform of liberation. The Bhāgavatam also confirms that liberation means to be situated in one's constitutional position. Since a living entity is eternally the servitor of the Supreme Lord, when one seriously and sincerely engages in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, that is the position of liberation. One should try to associate with a liberated person, and then the problems of life, namely birth and death, can be solved.", + "While discharging devotional service in full Kṛṣṇa consciousness, one should not be miserly. He should not unnecessarily show that he has renounced this world. Actually, renunciation is not possible. If one renounces his palatial building and goes to a forest, there is actually no renunciation because the palatial building is the property of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the forest is also the property of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. If he changes from one property to another, that does not mean that he renounces; he was never the proprietor of either the palace or the forest. Renunciation necessitates renouncing the false understanding that one can lord it over material nature. When one renounces this false attitude and renounces the puffed up position that he is also God, that is real renunciation. Otherwise, there is no meaning of renunciation. Rūpa Gosvāmī advises that if one renounces anything which could be applied in the service of the Lord and does not use it for that purpose, that is called phalgu-vairāgya, insufficient or false renunciation. Everything belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead; therefore everything can be engaged in the service of the Lord; nothing should be used for one's sense gratification. That is real renunciation. Nor should one unnecessarily increase the necessities of the body. We should be satisfied with whatever is offered and supplied by Kṛṣṇa without much personal endeavor. We should spend our time executing devotional service in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That is the solution of the problem of life and death." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/48.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/48.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9166ed3b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/31/verses/48.json @@ -0,0 +1,76 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 31, + "verse": 48, + "reference": "SB 3.31.48", + "devanagari": "सम्यग्दर्शनया बुद्ध्या योगवैराग्ययुक्तया\nमायाविरचिते लोके चरेन्न्यस्य कलेवरम्", + "transliteration": "samyag-darśanayā buddhyā\nyoga-vairāgya-yuktayā\nmāyā-viracite loke\ncaren nyasya kalevaram", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "samyak-darśanayā", + "meanings": [ + "endowed with right vision" + ] + }, + { + "word": "buddhyā", + "meanings": [ + "through reason" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga", + "meanings": [ + "by devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vairāgya", + "meanings": [ + "by detachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yuktayā", + "meanings": [ + "strengthened" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyā-viracite", + "meanings": [ + "arranged by māyā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loke", + "meanings": [ + "to this world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caret", + "meanings": [ + "one should move about" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nyasya", + "meanings": [ + "relegating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalevaram", + "meanings": [ + "the body." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Endowed with right vision and strengthened by devotional service and a pessimistic attitude toward material identity, one should relegate his body to this illusory world through his reason.

When the interaction of the three modes of material nature begins, Brahmā, who is the creator of this cosmic manifestation and who is full of Vedic knowledge, and the great sages, who are the authors of the spiritual path and the yoga system, come back under the influence of the time factor.

Demigods like Brahmā and Lord Śiva cannot give liberation to any living entity. As it is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, only one who surrenders unto Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, can be liberated from the clutches of māyā. Brahmā is called here ādyaḥ sthira-carāṇām. He is the original, first-created living entity, and after his own birth he creates the entire cosmic manifestation. He was fully instructed in the matter of creation by the Supreme Lord. Here he is called veda-garbha, which means that he knows the complete purpose of the Vedas. He is always accompanied by such great personalities as Marīci, Kaśyapa and the seven sages, as well as by great mystic yogīs, the Kumāras and many other spiritually advanced living entities, but he has his own interest, separate from the Lord's. Bheda-dṛṣṭyā means that Brahmā sometimes thinks that he is independent of the Supreme Lord, or he thinks of himself as one of the three equally independent incarnations. Brahmā is entrusted with creation, Viṣṇu maintains, and Rudra, Lord Śiva, destroys. The three of them are understood to be incarnations of the Supreme Lord in charge of the three different material modes of nature, but none of them is independent of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Here the word bheda-dṛṣṭyā occurs because Brahmā has a slight inclination to think that he is as independent as Rudra. Sometimes Brahmā thinks that he is independent of the Supreme Lord, and the worshiper also thinks that he is independent. For this reason, after the destruction of this material world, when there is again creation by the interaction of the material modes of nature, Brahmā comes back. Although Brahmā reaches the Supreme Personality of Godhead as the first puruṣa incarnation, Mahā-Viṣṇu, who is full with transcendental qualities, still he cannot stay in the spiritual world.", + "The specific significance of his coming back may be noted. Brahmā and the great ṛṣis and the great master of yoga (Śiva) are not ordinary living entities; they are very powerful and have all the perfections of mystic yoga. But still they have an inclination to try to become one with the Supreme, and therefore they have to come back. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is accepted that as long as one thinks that he is equal with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is not completely purified or knowledgeable. In spite of going up to the first puruṣa-avatāra, Mahā-Viṣṇu, after the dissolution of this material creation, such personalities again fall down or come back to the material creation.", + "It is a great falldown on the part of the impersonalists to think that the Supreme Lord appears within a material body and that one should therefore not meditate upon the form of the Supreme but should meditate instead on the formless.

Similarly, by the eightfold yoga system He appears as the Paramātmā. But in pure Kṛṣṇa consciousness, or knowledge in purity, when one tries to understand the Absolute Truth, one realizes Him as the Supreme Person. The Transcendence is realized simply on the basis of knowledge. The words used here, paramātmeśvaraḥ pumān, are all transcendental, and they refer to Supersoul. Supersoul is also described as puruṣa, but the word Bhagavān directly refers to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is full of six opulences: wealth, fame, strength, beauty, knowledge and renunciation. He is the Personality of Godhead in different spiritual skies. The various descriptions of paramātmā, īśvara and pumān indicate that the expansions of the Supreme Godhead are unlimited.", + "Ultimately, to understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead one has to accept bhakti-yoga. By executing jñāna-yoga or dhyāna-yoga one has to eventually approach the bhakti-yoga platform, and then paramātmā, īśvara, pumān, etc., are all clearly understood. It is recommended in the Second Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that whether one is a devotee, or fruitive actor, or liberationist, if he is intelligent enough, he should engage himself with all seriousness in the process of devotional service. It is also explained that whatever one desires which is obtainable by fruitive activities, even if one wants to be elevated to higher planets, can be achieved simply by execution of devotional service. Since the Supreme Lord is full in six opulences, He can bestow any one of them upon the worshiper.", + "The one Supreme Personality of Godhead reveals Himself to different thinkers as the Supreme Person, or impersonal Brahman, or Paramātmā. Impersonalists merge into the impersonal Brahman, but that is not achieved by worshiping the impersonal Brahman. If one takes to devotional service and at the same time desires to merge into the existence of the Supreme Lord, he can achieve that. If someone desires at all to merge into the existence of the Supreme, he has to execute devotional service.", + "The devotee can see the Supreme Lord face to face, but the jñānī, the empiric philosopher, or yogī cannot. They cannot be elevated to the positions of associates of the Lord. There is no evidence in the scriptures stating that by cultivating knowledge or worshiping the impersonal Brahman one can become a personal associate of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Nor by executing the yogic principles can one become an associate of the Supreme Godhead. Impersonal Brahman, being formless, is described as adṛśya because the impersonal effulgence of brahmajyoti covers the face of the Supreme Lord. Some yogīs see the four-handed Viṣṇu sitting within the heart, and therefore in their case also the Supreme Lord is invisible. Only for the devotees is the Lord visible. Here the statement dṛśyādibhiḥ is significant. Since the Supreme Personality of Godhead is both invisible and visible, there are different features of the Lord. The Paramātmā feature and Brahman feature are invisible, but the Bhagavān feature is visible. In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa this fact is very nicely explained. The universal form of the Lord and the formless Brahman effulgence of the Lord, being invisible, are inferior features. The concept of the universal form is material, and the concept of impersonal Brahman is spiritual, but the highest spiritual understanding is the Personality of Godhead. Viṣṇu Purāṇa states, viṣṇur brahma-svarūpeṇa svayam eva vyavasthitaḥ: Brahman's real feature is Viṣṇu, or the Supreme Brahman is Viṣṇu. Svayam eva: that is His personal feature. The supreme spiritual conception is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā: yad gatvā na nivartante tad dhāma paramaṁ mama. That specific abode called paramaṁ mama is the place from which, once one attains it, one does not return to this miserable conditional life. Every place, every space and every thing belongs to Viṣṇu, but where He personally lives is tad dhāma paramam, His supreme abode.

That loving service is the perfect stage of sense control. The senses are actually active symptoms of life, and they cannot be stopped. They can be detached only if there is superior engagement. As it is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate. The activities of the senses can be stopped if they are given superior engagements.

This is clearly expressed in Bhagavad-gītā. Lord Kṛṣṇa says, \"Everything that is experienced is but an expansion of My energy.\" Everything is sustained by Him, but that does not mean that He is in everything. Sense perceptions, such as aural perception of the sound of a drum, visual perception of a beautiful woman, or perception of the delicious taste of a milk preparation by the tongue, all come through different senses and are therefore differently understood. Therefore sensory knowledge is divided in different categories, although actually everything is one as a manifestation of the energy of the Supreme Lord. Similarly, the energies of fire are heat and illumination, and by these two energies, fire can display itself in many varieties, or in diversified sense perception. Māyāvādī philosophers declare this diversity to be false. But Vaiṣṇava philosophers do not accept the different manifestations as false; they accept them as nondifferent from the Supreme Personality of Godhead because they are a display of His diverse energies.", + "The philosophy that the Absolute is true and this creation is false (brahma satyaṁ jagan mithyā) is not accepted by Vaiṣṇava philosophers. The example is given that although all that glitters is not gold, this does not mean that a glittering object is false. For example, an oyster shell appears to be golden. This appearance of golden hue is due only to the perception of the eyes, but that does not mean that the oyster shell is false. Similarly, by seeing the form of Lord Kṛṣṇa one cannot understand what He actually is, but this does not mean that He is false. The form of Kṛṣṇa has to be understood as it is described in the books of knowledge such as Brahma-saṁhitā. Īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ: Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has an eternal, blissful spiritual body. By our imperfect sense perception we cannot understand the form of the Lord. We have to acquire knowledge about Him. Therefore it is said here, jñānam ekam. Bhagavad-gītā confirms that they are fools who, simply upon seeing Kṛṣṇa, consider Him a common man. They do not know the unlimited knowledge, power and opulence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Material sense speculation leads to the conclusion that the Supreme is formless. It is because of such mental speculation that the conditioned soul remains in ignorance under the spell of illusory energy. The Supreme Person has to be understood by the transcendental sound vibrated by Him in Bhagavad-gītā, wherein He says that there is nothing superior to Himself; the impersonal Brahman effulgence is resting on His personality. The purified, absolute vision of Bhagavad-gītā is compared to the River Ganges. Ganges water is so pure that it can purify even the asses and cows. But anyone who, disregarding the pure Ganges, wishes to be purified instead by the filthy water flowing in a drain, cannot be successful. Similarly, one can successfully attain pure knowledge of the Absolute only by hearing from the pure Absolute Himself.", + "In this verse it is clearly said that those who are averse to the Supreme Personality of Godhead speculate with their imperfect senses about the nature of the Absolute Truth. The formless Brahman conception, however, can be received only by aural reception and not by personal experience. Knowledge is therefore acquired by aural reception. It is confirmed in the Vedānta-sūtra, śāstra-yonitvāt: one has to acquire pure knowledge from the authorized scriptures. So-called speculative arguments about the Absolute Truth are therefore useless. The actual identity of the living entity is his consciousness, which is always present while the living entity is awake, dreaming, or in deep sleep. Even in deep sleep, he can perceive by consciousness whether he is happy or distressed.

In the presence of the sun, the rays illuminate just like the sun, but when the sunshine is covered by the spell of a cloud, or by māyā, then darkness, the imperfection of perception, begins.

The origin or the total energy of the cosmic manifestation is the mahat-tattva. From the mahat-tattva all the other twenty-four divisions have sprung, namely the eleven senses (including the mind), the five sense objects, the five material elements, and then consciousness, intelligence and false ego. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is the cause of the mahat-tattva, and therefore, in one sense, because everything is an emanation from the Supreme Lord, there is no difference between the Lord and the cosmic manifestation. But at the same time the cosmic manifestation is different from the Lord. The word sva-rāṭ is very significant here. Sva-rāṭ means independent. The Supreme Lord is independent, and the individual soul is also independent. Although there is no comparison between the two qualities of independence, the living entity is minutely independent, and the Supreme Lord is fully independent. As the individual soul has a material body made of five elements and the senses, the Supreme Independent Lord similarly has the gigantic body of the universe. The individual body is temporary; similarly, the entire universe, which is considered to be the body of the Supreme Lord, is also temporary, and both the individual and universal bodies are products of the mahat-tattva. One has to understand the differences with intelligence. Everyone knows that his material body has developed from a spiritual spark, and similarly the universal body has developed from the supreme spark, Supersoul. As the individual body develops from the individual soul, so the gigantic body of the universe develops from the Supreme Soul. Just as the individual soul has consciousness, so the Supreme Soul is also conscious. But although there is a similarity between the consciousness of the Supreme Soul and the consciousness of the individual soul, the individual soul's consciousness is limited, whereas the consciousness of the Supreme Soul is unlimited.

But it is stated here that both bhakti-yoga and jñāna-yoga are meant for reaching the same destination—the Personality of Godhead. By the process of jñāna-yoga the same Personality of Godhead appears to be impersonal. As the same object appears to be different when perceived by different senses, similarly the same Supreme Lord appears to be impersonal by mental speculation. A hill appears cloudy from a distance, and one who does not know may speculate that the hill is a cloud. Actually, it is not a cloud; it is a big hill. One has to learn from authority that the sight of a cloud is not actually a cloud but a hill. If one makes a little more progress, then instead of a cloud he sees the hill and something green. When one actually approaches the hill, he will see many varieties. Another example is in perceiving milk. When we see milk, we see that it is white; when we taste it, it appears that milk is very palatable. When we touch milk, it appears very cold; when we smell milk, it appears to have a very good flavor; and when we hear, we understand that it is called milk. Perceiving milk with different senses, we say that it is something white, something very delicious, something very aromatic, and so on. Actually, it is milk. Similarly, those who are trying to find the Supreme Godhead by mental speculation may approach the bodily effulgence, or the impersonal Brahman, and those who are trying to find the Supreme Godhead by yoga practice may find Him as the localized Supersoul, but those who are directly trying to approach the Supreme Truth by practice of bhakti-yoga can see Him face to face as the Supreme Person.", + "Ultimately, the Supreme Person is the destination of all different processes. The fortunate person who, by following the principles of scriptures, becomes completely purified of all material contamination, surrenders unto the Supreme Lord as everything. Just as one can appreciate the real taste of milk with the tongue and not with the eyes, nostrils or ears, one can similarly appreciate the Absolute Truth perfectly and with all relishable pleasure only through one path, devotional service. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, bhaktyā mām abhijānāti: if one wants to understand the Absolute Truth in perfection, he must take to devotional service. Of course, no one can understand the Absolute Truth in all perfection. That is not possible for the infinitesimal living entities. But the highest point of understanding by the living entity is reached by discharge of devotional service, not otherwise.", + "By following various scriptural paths, one may come to the impersonal effulgence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The transcendental pleasure derived from merging with or understanding the impersonal Brahman is very extensive because Brahman is ananta. Tad brahma niṣkalaṁ anantam: brahmānanda is unlimited. But that unlimited pleasure can also be surpassed. That is the nature of the Transcendence. The unlimited can be surpassed also, and that higher platform is Kṛṣṇa. When one deals directly with Kṛṣṇa, the mellow and the humor relished by reciprocation of devotional service is incomparable, even with the pleasure derived from transcendental Brahman. Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī therefore says that kaivalya, the Brahman pleasure, is undoubtedly very great and is appreciated by many philosophers, but to a devotee who has understood how to derive pleasure from exchanging devotional service with the Lord, this unlimited Brahman appears to be hellish. One should try, therefore, to transcend even the Brahman pleasure in order to approach the position of dealing with Kṛṣṇa face to face. As the mind is the center of all the activities of the senses, so Kṛṣṇa is called the master of the senses, Hṛṣīkeśa. The process is to fix the mind on Hṛṣīkeśa or Kṛṣṇa, as Mahārāja Ambarīṣa did (sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ). Bhakti is the basic principle of all processes. Without bhakti, neither jñāna-yoga nor aṣṭāṅga-yoga can be successful, and unless one approaches Kṛṣṇa, the principles of self-realization have no ultimate destination." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/32/verses/34.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/32/verses/34.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3b64f377 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/32/verses/34.json @@ -0,0 +1,220 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 32, + "verse": 34, + "reference": "SB 3.32.34-36", + "devanagari": "क्रियया क्रतुभिर्दानैस्तपःस्वाध्यायमर्शनैः\nआत्मेन्द्रियजयेनापि सन्न्यासेन च कर्मणाम्\nयोगेन विविधांगेन भक्तियोगेन चैव हि\nधर्मेणोभयचिह्नेन यः प्रवृत्तिनिवृत्तिमान्\nआत्मतत्त्वावबोधेन वैराग्येण दृढेन च\nईयते भगवान् एभिः सगुणो निर्गुणः स्वदृक्", + "transliteration": "kriyayā kratubhir dānais\ntapaḥ-svādhyāya-marśanaiḥ\nātmendriya-jayenāpi\nsannyāsena ca karmaṇām\nyogena vividhāṅgena\nbhakti-yogena caiva hi\ndharmeṇobhaya-cihnena\nyaḥ pravṛtti-nivṛttimān\nātma-tattvāvabodhena\nvairāgyeṇa dṛḍhena ca\nīyate bhagavān ebhiḥ\nsaguṇo nirguṇaḥ sva-dṛk", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kriyayā", + "meanings": [ + "by fruitive activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kratubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by sacrificial performances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dānaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by charity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "austerities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svādhyāya", + "meanings": [ + "study of Vedic literature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "marśanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and by philosophical research" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-indriya-jayena", + "meanings": [ + "by controlling the mind and senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sannyāsena", + "meanings": [ + "by renunciation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmaṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of fruitive activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogena", + "meanings": [ + "by yoga practice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vividha-aṅgena", + "meanings": [ + "of different divisions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhakti-yogena", + "meanings": [ + "by devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharmeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by prescribed duties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ubhaya-cihnena", + "meanings": [ + "having both symptoms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pravṛtti", + "meanings": [ + "attachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nivṛtti-mān", + "meanings": [ + "containing detachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-tattva", + "meanings": [ + "the science of self-realization" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avabodhena", + "meanings": [ + "by understanding" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vairāgyeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by detachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛḍhena", + "meanings": [ + "strong" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īyate", + "meanings": [ + "is perceived" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ebhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-guṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in the material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirguṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "beyond the material modes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-dṛk", + "meanings": [ + "one who sees his constitutional position." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By performing fruitive activities and sacrifices, by distributing charity, by performing austerities, by studying various literatures, by conducting philosophical research, by controlling the mind, by subduing the senses, by accepting the renounced order of life, and by performing the prescribed duties of one's social order; by performing the different divisions of yoga practice, by performing devotional service, and by exhibiting the process of devotional service containing the symptoms of both attachment and detachment; by understanding the science of self-realization and by developing a strong sense of detachment, one who is expert in understanding the different processes of self-realization realizes the Supreme Personality of Godhead as He is represented in the material world as well as in transcendence.", + "purport": [ + "As it is stated in the previous verse, one has to follow the principles of the scriptures.

There are four orders of the social system: brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa. For the gṛhasthas, or householders, performance of sacrifices, distribution of charity, and action according to prescribed duties are especially recommended. Similarly, austerity, study of Vedic literature, and philosophical research are meant for the vānaprasthas, or retired persons. Study of the Vedic literature from the bona fide spiritual master is meant for the brahmacārī, or student. Ātmendriya-jaya, control of the mind and taming of the senses, is meant for persons in the renounced order of life.

The words caiva hi, according to Sanskrit grammar, indicate that one must perform all these activities mixed with devotional service, otherwise such activities will not produce any fruit. Any prescribed activity must be performed for the sake of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, yat karoṣi yad aśnāsi: \"Whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you sacrifice, whatever austerities you undergo and whatever charities you give, the result should be given to the Supreme Lord.\" The word eva is added, indicating that one must execute activities in such a way.

A hungry man feels strength and satisfaction from eating, and at the same time he gradually becomes detached from eating any more. Similarly, with the execution of devotional service, real knowledge develops, and one becomes detached from all material activities. In no other activity but devotional service is there such detachment from matter and attachment for the Supreme. There are nine different processes to increase this attachment to the Supreme Lord: hearing, chanting, remembering, worshiping, serving the Lord, making friendship, praying, offering everything, and serving the lotus feet of the Lord.

Everyone engages in some sort of service. If one does not know one's constitutional position, one engages in the service of his personal gross body, or his family, society or country.

All the different demigods are material representations of the Supreme Lord. By material activities one can only approach such demigods, as stated in Bhagavad-gītā.

Devotional service mixed with the modes of material nature is a means for material existence, whereas devotional service without desires for fruitive result and without attempts for empirical philosophical research is pure, transcendental devotional service." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/32/verses/38.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/32/verses/38.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8aba2fe3 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/32/verses/38.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 32, + "verse": 38, + "reference": "SB 3.32.38", + "devanagari": "जीवस्य संसृतीर्बह्वीर् अविद्याकर्मनिर्मिताः\nयास्व् अंग प्रविशन्न् आत्मा न वेद गतिम् आत्मनः", + "transliteration": "jīvasya saṁsṛtīr bahvīr\navidyā-karma-nirmitāḥ\nyāsv aṅga praviśann ātmā\nna veda gatim ātmanaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "jīvasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the living entity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsṛtīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "courses of material existence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahvīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "many" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avidyā", + "meanings": [ + "in ignorance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karma", + "meanings": [ + "by work" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirmitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "produced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yāsu", + "meanings": [ + "into which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅga", + "meanings": [ + "My dear mother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praviśan", + "meanings": [ + "entering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "the living entity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda", + "meanings": [ + "understands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatim", + "meanings": [ + "the movement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of himself." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "There are varieties of material existence for the living entity according to the work he performs in ignorance or forgetfulness of his real identity.

That body is transcendental, untouched by matter. Since the material manifestation has come from His body, His body therefore existed before the material creation. The conclusion is that the transcendental body of Viṣṇu is not made of material elements. The body of Viṣṇu is the source of all other living entities, as well as the material nature, which is also supposed to be the energy of that Supreme Personality of Godhead. Devahūti said, \"You are the background of the material manifestation and all created energy; therefore Your delivering me from the clutches of māyā by explaining the system of sāṅkhya philosophy is not so astonishing. But Your being born from my abdomen is certainly wonderful because although You are the source of all creation, You have so kindly taken birth as my child. That is most wonderful. Your body is the source of all the universe, and still You put Your body within the abdomen of a common woman like me.

Rūpa Gosvāmī has discussed the sequence of sinful activities of the conditioned soul, and he has established, in Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu, that those who engage in devotional service become freed from the reactions of all sinful activities. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. The Lord says that He takes charge of one who surrenders unto Him, and He makes him immune to all reactions to sinful activities.

Generally, only a person who is born in a family of brāhmaṇas, who has been reformed by the ten kinds of purificatory processes, and who is learned in Vedic literature is allowed to perform the Vedic sacrifices. But here the word sadyaḥ, \"immediately,\" is used, and Śrīdhara Svāmī also remarks that one can immediately become eligible to perform Vedic sacrifices. A person born in a family of the low caste which is accustomed to eat dogs is so positioned due to his past sinful activities, but by chanting or hearing once in pureness or in an offenseless manner, he is immediately relieved of the sinful reaction. Not only is he relieved of the sinful reaction, but immediately he achieves the result of all purificatory processes. Taking birth in the family of a brāhmaṇa is certainly due to pious activities in one's past life. But still a child who is born in a family of a brāhmaṇa depends for his further reformation upon initiation into acceptance of a sacred thread and many other reformatory processes. But a person who chants the holy name of the Lord, even if born in a family of caṇḍālas, dog-eaters, does not need reformation. Simply by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, he immediately becomes purified and becomes as good as the most learned brāhmaṇa.", + "Śrīdhara Svāmī especially remarks in this connection, anena pūjyatvaṁ lakṣyate. Some caste brāhmaṇas remark that by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, purification begins. Of course that depends on the individual process of chanting, but this remark of Śrīdhara Svāmī's is completely applicable if one chants the holy name of the Lord without offense, for he immediately becomes more than a brāhmaṇa. As Śrīdhara Svāmī says, pūjyatvam: he immediately becomes as respectable as a most learned brāhmaṇa and can be allowed to perform Vedic sacrifices. If by simply chanting the holy name of the Lord one becomes sanctified instantly, then what can be said of those persons who see the Supreme Lord face to face and who understand the descent of the Lord as Devahūti understands Kapiladeva.", + "Usually, initiation depends on the bona fide spiritual master, who directs the disciple. If he sees that a disciple has become competent and purified by the process of chanting, then he offers the sacred thread to the disciple just so that he will be recognized as one hundred percent equal with a brāhmaṇa. This is also confirmed in the Hari-bhakti-vilāsa by Śrī Sanātana Gosvāmī: \"As a base metal like bell metal can be changed into gold by a chemical process, similarly any person can be changed into a brāhmaṇa by dīkṣā-vidhāna, the initiation process.\"", + "It is sometimes remarked that by the chanting process one begins to purify himself and can take birth in his next life in a brāhmaṇa family and then be reformed. But at this present moment, even those who are born in the best brāhmaṇa families are not reformed, nor is there any certainty that they are actually born of brāhmaṇa fathers. Formerly the garbhādhāna reformatory system was prevalent, but at the present moment there is no such garbhādhāna, or seed-giving ceremony. Under these circumstances no one knows if a man is factually born of a brāhmaṇa father. Whether one has acquired the qualification of a brāhmaṇa depends on the judgement of the bona fide spiritual master. He bestows upon the disciple the position of a brāhmaṇa by his own judgement. When one is accepted as a brāhmaṇa in the sacred thread ceremony, under the pāñcarātric system, then he is dvija, twice-born. That is confirmed by Sanātana Gosvāmī: dvijatvaṁ jāyate. By the process of initiation by the spiritual master, a person is accepted as a brāhmaṇa in his purified state of chanting the holy name of the Lord.

It is not very astounding because no one in this life can chant the holy name of the Lord unless he has passed all lower stages, such as performing the Vedic ritualistic sacrifices, studying the Vedas and practicing good behavior like that of the Āryans. All this must first have been done. Just as a student in a law class is to be understood to have already graduated from general education, so anyone who is engaged in the chanting of the holy name of the Lord, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, must have already passed all lower stages. It is said that those who simply chant the holy name with the tip of the tongue are glorious. One does not even have to chant the holy name and understand the whole procedure, namely the offensive stage, offenseless stage and pure stage; if the holy name is sounded on the tip of the tongue, that is also sufficient. It is said herein that nāma, a singular number, one name, Kṛṣṇa or Rāma, is sufficient. It is not that one has to chant all the holy names of the Lord. The holy names of the Lord are innumerable, and one does not have to chant all the names to prove that he has already undergone all the processes of Vedic ritualistic ceremonies. If one chants once only, it is to be understood that he has already passed all the examinations, not to speak of those who are chanting always, twenty-four hours a day. It is specifically said here, tubhyam: \"unto You only.\" One must chant God's name, not, as the Māyāvādī philosophers say, any name, such as a demigod's name or the names of God's energies. Only the holy name of the Supreme Lord will be effective. Anyone who compares the holy name of the Supreme Lord to the names of the demigods is called pāṣaṇḍī, or an offender.", + "The holy name has to be chanted to please the Supreme Lord, and not for any sense gratification or professional purpose. If this pure mentality is there, then even though a person is born of a low family, such as a dog-eater's, he is so glorious that not only has he purified himself, but he is quite competent to deliver others. He is competent to speak on the importance of the transcendental name, just as Ṭhākura Haridāsa did. He was apparently born in a family of Mohammedans, but because he was chanting the holy name of the Supreme Lord offenselessly, Lord Caitanya empowered him to become the authority or ācārya of spreading the name. It didn't matter that he was born in a family which was not following the Vedic rules and regulations. Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Advaita Prabhu accepted him as an authority because he was offenselessly chanting the name of the Lord. Authorities like Advaita Prabhu and Lord Caitanya immediately accepted that he had already performed all kinds of austerities, studied the Vedas and performed all sacrifices. That is automatically understood. There is a hereditary class of brāhmaṇas called the smārta-brāhmaṇas, however, who are of the opinion that even if such persons who are chanting the holy name of the Lord are accepted as purified, they still have to perform the Vedic rites or await their next birth in a family of brāhmaṇas so that they can perform the Vedic rituals. But actually that is not the case. Such a man does not need to wait for the next birth to become purified. He is at once purified. It is understood that he has already performed all sorts of rites. It is the so-called brāhmaṇas who actually have to undergo different kinds of austerities before reaching that point of purification. There are many other Vedic performances which are not described here. All such Vedic rituals have been already performed by the chanters of the holy name.", + "The word juhuvuḥ means that the chanters of the holy name have already performed all kinds of sacrifices. Sasnuḥ means that they have already traveled to all the holy places of pilgrimage and taken part in purificatory activities at those places. They are called āryāḥ because they have already finished all these requirements, and therefore they must be among the Āryans or those who have qualified themselves to become Āryans. Āryan refers to those who are civilized, whose manners are regulated according to the Vedic rituals. Any devotee who is chanting the holy name of the Lord is the best kind of Āryan. Unless one studies the Vedas, one cannot become an Āryan, but it is automatically understood that the chanters have already studied all the Vedic literature. The specific word used here is anūcuḥ, which means that because they have already completed all those recommended acts, they have become qualified to be spiritual masters.", + "The very word gṛṇanti, which is used in this verse, means to be already established in the perfectional stage of ritualistic performances. If one is seated on the bench of a high court and is giving judgement on cases, it means that he has already passed all legal exams and is better than those who are engaged in the study of law or those who are expecting to study law in the future. In a similar way, persons who are chanting the holy name are transcendental to those who are factually performing the Vedic rituals and those who expect to be qualified (or, in other words, those who are born in families of brāhmaṇas but have not yet undergone the reformatory processes and who therefore expect to study the Vedic rituals and perform the sacrifices in the future).", + "There are many Vedic versions in different places saying that anyone who chants the holy name of the Lord becomes immediately freed from conditional life and that anyone who hears the holy name of the Lord, even though born of a family of dog-eaters, also becomes liberated from the clutches of material entanglement." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/08.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/08.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5d98a7f0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/08.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 33, + "verse": 8, + "reference": "SB 3.33.8", + "devanagari": "तं त्वाम् अहं ब्रह्म परं पुमांसं प्रत्यक्स्रोतस्य् आत्मनि संविभाव्यम्\nस्वतेजसा ध्वस्तगुणप्रवाहं वन्दे विष्णुं कपिलं वेदगर्भम्", + "transliteration": "taṁ tvām ahaṁ brahma paraṁ pumāṁsaṁ\npratyak-srotasy ātmani saṁvibhāvyam\nsva-tejasā dhvasta-guṇa-pravāhaṁ\nvande viṣṇuṁ kapilaṁ veda-garbham", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvām", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "Brahman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pumāṁsam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyak-srotasi", + "meanings": [ + "turned inwards" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmani", + "meanings": [ + "in the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁvibhāvyam", + "meanings": [ + "meditated upon, perceived" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-tejasā", + "meanings": [ + "by Your own potency" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhvasta", + "meanings": [ + "vanished" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-pravāham", + "meanings": [ + "the influence of the modes of material nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vande", + "meanings": [ + "I offer obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣṇum", + "meanings": [ + "unto Lord Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kapilam", + "meanings": [ + "named Kapila" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda-garbham", + "meanings": [ + "the repository of the Vedas." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "I believe, my Lord, that You are Lord Viṣṇu Himself under the name of Kapila, and You are the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the Supreme Brahman!

The speed of our airplanes and space vehicles is very limited, but, as we have already studied, Kardama Muni traveled in outer space in an airplane which was like a city, and he journeyed to see all the different heavenly planets. That was not an ordinary airplane, nor was it ordinary space travel. Because Kardama Muni was such a powerful mystic yogī, his opulence was envied by the denizens of heaven." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3af11c25 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,91 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 33, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 3.33.16", + "devanagari": "पयःफेननिभाः शय्या दान्ता रुक्मपरिच्छदाः\nआसनानि च हैमानि सुस्पर्शास्तरणानि च", + "transliteration": "payaḥ-phena-nibhāḥ śayyā\ndāntā rukma-paricchadāḥ\nāsanāni ca haimāni\nsusparśāstaraṇāni ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "payaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of milk" + ] + }, + { + "word": "phena", + "meanings": [ + "the foam" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nibhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "resembling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śayyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "beds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dāntāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "made of ivory" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rukma", + "meanings": [ + "golden" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paricchadāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with covers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsanāni", + "meanings": [ + "chairs and benches" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haimāni", + "meanings": [ + "made of gold" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-sparśa", + "meanings": [ + "soft to the touch" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āstaraṇāni", + "meanings": [ + "cushions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The opulence of the household of Kardama Muni is described herein.

Similarly, when one seriously discusses the subject matter of the form, quality, pastimes and entourage of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he becomes situated in meditation on Him. If one has complete knowledge of the Supreme Lord, then knowledge of the impersonal Brahman is automatically realized. The Absolute Truth is realized by the knower according to three different angles of vision, namely impersonal Brahman, localized Supersoul and ultimately the Supreme Personality of Godhead. If one is situated, therefore, in knowledge of the Supreme Person, this implies that one is already situated in the concept of the Supersoul and impersonal Brahman.", + "In Bhagavad-gītā it is said, brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā. This means that unless one is freed from the material entanglement and situated in Brahman, there is no question of entering into the understanding of devotional service or engaging in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. One who is engaged in devotional service to Kṛṣṇa is understood to be already realized in the Brahman concept of life because transcendental knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead includes knowledge of Brahman. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham: the concept of the Personality of Godhead does not depend on Brahman. The Viṣṇu Purāṇa also confirms that one who has taken shelter of the all-auspicious Supreme Lord is already situated in the understanding of Brahman. In other words, one who is a Vaiṣṇava is already a brāhmaṇa.", + "Another significant point of this verse is that one has to observe the prescribed rules and regulations. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, yuktāhāra-vihārasya. When one engages in devotional service in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he still has to eat, sleep, defend and mate because these are necessities of the body. But he performs such activities in a regulated way. He has to eat kṛṣṇa-prasāda. He has to sleep according to regulated principles. The principle is to reduce the duration of sleep and to reduce eating, taking only what is needed to keep the body fit. In short, the goal is spiritual advancement, not sense gratification. Similarly, sex life must be reduced. Sex life is meant only for begetting Kṛṣṇa conscious children. Otherwise, there is no necessity for sex life. Nothing is prohibited, but everything is made yukta, regulated, with the higher purpose always in mind. By following all these rules and regulations of living, one becomes purified, and all misconceptions due to ignorance become nil. It is specifically mentioned here that the causes of material entanglement are completely vanquished.", + "The Sanskrit statement anartha-nivṛtti indicates that this body is unwanted. We are spirit soul, and there was never any need of this material body. But because we wanted to enjoy the material body, we therefore have this body, through the material energy, under the direction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As soon as we are reestablished in our original position of servitorship to the Supreme Lord, we begin to forget the necessities of the body, and at last we forget the body.", + "Sometimes in a dream we get a particular type of body with which to work in the dream. I may dream that I am flying in the sky or that I have gone into the forest or some unknown place. But as soon as I am awake I forget all these bodies. Similarly, when one is Kṛṣṇa conscious, fully devoted, he forgets all his changes of body. We are always changing bodies, beginning at birth from the womb of our mother. But when we are awakened to Kṛṣṇa consciousness we forget all these bodies. The bodily necessities become secondary, for the primary necessity is the engagement of the soul in real spiritual life. The activities of devotional service in full Kṛṣṇa consciousness are the cause of our being situated in transcendence. The words bhagavaty ātma-saṁśraye denote the Personality of Godhead as the Supreme Soul, or the soul of everyone. In Bhagavad-gītā Kṛṣṇa says, bījaṁ māṁ sarva-bhūtānām: \"I am the seed of all entities.\" By taking shelter of the Supreme Being by the process of devotional service, one becomes fully situated in the concept of the Personality of Godhead. As described by Kapila, mad-guṇa-śruti-mātreṇa: one who is fully Kṛṣṇa conscious, situated in the Personality of Godhead, is immediately saturated with love of God as soon as he hears about the transcendental qualities of the Lord.", + "Devahūti was fully instructed by her son Kapiladeva on how to concentrate her mind on the Viṣṇu form in full detail. Following the instructions of her son in the matter of devotional service, she contemplated the form of the Lord within herself with great devotional love. That is the perfection of Brahman realization, or the mystic yoga system or devotional service. At the ultimate issue, when one is fully absorbed in thought of the Supreme Lord and meditates on Him constantly, that is the highest perfection. Bhagavad-gītā confirms that one who is always absorbed in such a way is to be considered the topmost yogī.", + "The real purpose of all processes of transcendental realization—jñāna-yoga, dhyāna-yoga or bhakti-yoga—is to arrive at the point of devotional service. If one endeavors simply to achieve knowledge of the Absolute Truth or the Supersoul but has no devotional service, then he labors without gaining the real result. This is compared to beating the husks of wheat after the grains have already been removed. Unless one understands the Supreme Personality of Godhead to be the ultimate goal, it is valueless simply to speculate or perform mystic yoga practice. In the aṣṭāṅga-yoga system, the seventh stage of perfection is dhyāna. This dhyāna is the third stage in devotional service. There are nine stages of devotional service. The first is hearing, and then comes chanting and then contemplating. By executing devotional service, therefore, one automatically becomes an expert jñānī and an expert yogī. In other words, jñāna and yoga are different preliminary stages of devotional service.", + "Devahūti was expert in accepting the real substance; she contemplated the form of Viṣṇu in detail as advised by her smiling son, Kapiladeva. At the same time, she was thinking of Kapiladeva, who is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and therefore she completely perfected her austerities, penances and transcendental realization." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/27.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/27.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ee961f56 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/03/chapters/33/verses/27.json @@ -0,0 +1,95 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 3, + "chapter": 33, + "verse": 27, + "reference": "SB 3.33.27", + "devanagari": "नित्यारूढसमाधित्वात्परावृत्तगुणभ्रमा\nन सस्मार तदात्मानं स्वप्ने दृष्टम् इवोत्थितः", + "transliteration": "nityārūḍha-samādhitvāt\nparāvṛtta-guṇa-bhramā\nna sasmāra tadātmānaṁ\nsvapne dṛṣṭam ivotthitaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "nitya", + "meanings": [ + "eternal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārūḍha", + "meanings": [ + "situated in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samādhitvāt", + "meanings": [ + "from trance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parāvṛtta", + "meanings": [ + "freed from" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "of the modes of material nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhramā", + "meanings": [ + "illusion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na sasmāra", + "meanings": [ + "she did not remember" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tadā", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "her material body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svapne", + "meanings": [ + "in a dream" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭam", + "meanings": [ + "seen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "just as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utthitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who has arisen." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Situated in eternal trance and freed from illusion impelled by the modes of material nature, she forgot her material body, just as one forgets his different bodies in a dream.", + "purport": [ + "A great Vaiṣṇava said that he who has no remembrance of his body is not bound to material existence.

Then, in eleven chapters, the activities of King Pṛthu are described, and the next eight chapters are devoted to the activities of the Pracetas Kings. As described in the first verse of this chapter, Svāyambhuva Manu had three daughters, named Ākūti, Devahūti and Prasūti. Of these three daughters, one daughter, Devahūti, has already been described, along with her husband, Kardama Muni, and her son, Kapila Muni. In this chapter the descendants of the first daughter, Ākūti, will specifically be described. Svāyambhuva Manu was the son of Brahmā.

This is called putrikā-dharma, which means that by execution of religious rituals one gets a son, although he is sonless by his own wife. But here we see extraordinary behavior in Manu, for in spite of his having two sons, he handed over his first daughter to Prajāpati Ruci on the condition that the son born of his daughter be returned to him as his son. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākur comments in this connection that King Manu knew that the Supreme Personality of Godhead would take birth in the womb of Ākūti; therefore, in spite of having two sons, he wanted the particular son born of Ākūti because he was ambitious to have the Supreme Personality of Godhead appear as his son and grandson. Manu is the lawgiver of mankind, and since he personally executed the putrikā-dharma, it is to be accepted that such a system can be adopted by mankind also.

Ruci was a brāhmaṇa, and he executed the brahminical duties very rigidly. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, the brahminical qualifications are control of the senses, control of the mind, cleanliness within and without, development of spiritual and material knowledge, simplicity, truthfulness, faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead, etc. There are many qualities which indicate a brahminical personality, and it is understood that Ruci followed all the brahminical principles rigidly. Therefore he is specifically mentioned as brahma-varcasvī. One who is born of a brāhmaṇa father but does not act as a brāhmaṇa is called, in Vedic language, a brahma-bandhu, and is calculated to be on the level of śūdras and women. Thus in the Bhāgavatam we find that Mahābhārata was specifically compiled by Vyāsadeva for strī-śūdra-brahma-bandhu. Strī means women, śūdra means the lower class of civilized human society, and brahma-bandhu means persons who are born in the families of brāhmaṇas but do not follow the rules and regulations carefully. All of these three classes are called less intelligent; they have no access to the study of the Vedas, which are specifically meant for persons who have acquired the brahminical qualifications. This restriction is based not upon any sectarian distinction but upon qualification. The Vedic literatures cannot be understood unless one has developed the brahminical qualifications. It is regrettable, therefore, that persons who have no brahminical qualifications and have never been trained under a bona fide spiritual master nevertheless comment on Vedic literatures like the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and other Purāṇas, for they cannot deliver their real message.

One of Lord Viṣṇu's names is Yajña because He is the master of the Vedas. The name Yajña comes from yajuṣāṁ patiḥ; in the Yajur-veda there are different ritualistic prescriptions for performing yajñas, and the beneficiary of all such yajñas is the Supreme Lord, Viṣṇu. Therefore it is stated in Bhagavad-gītā, yajñārthāt karmaṇaḥ: one should act, but one should perform one's prescribed duties only for the sake of Yajña, or Viṣṇu. If one does not act for the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, or if one does not perform devotional service, then there will be reactions to all his activities. It does not matter if the reaction is good or bad; if our activities are not dovetailed with the desire of the Supreme Lord, or if we do not act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, then we shall be responsible for the results of all our activities. There is always a reaction to every kind of action, but if actions are performed for Yajña, there is no reaction. Thus if one acts for Yajña, or the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one is not entangled in the material condition, for it is mentioned in the Vedas and also in Bhagavad-gītā that the Vedas and the Vedic rituals are all meant for understanding the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa.

The three sons born of Anasūyā—Dattātreya, Durvāsā and Soma—were born as partial representations of these three demigods. Ātma is not in the category of the demigods or living entities because He is Viṣṇu; therefore He is described as vibhinnāṁśa-bhūtānām. The Supersoul or Viṣṇu, is the seed-giving father of all living entities, including Brahmā and Lord Śiva. Another meaning of the word ātma may be accepted in this way: the principle who is the Supersoul in every ātma, or, one may say, the soul of everyone, became manifested as Dattātreya, because the word aṁśa, part and parcel, is used here.", + "In Bhagavad-gītā the individual souls are also described as parts of the Supreme Personality of Godhead or Supersoul, so why not accept that Dattātreya was one of those parts? Lord Śiva and Lord Brahmā are also described here as parts, so why not accept all of them as ordinary individual souls? The answer is that the manifestations of Viṣṇu and those of the ordinary living entities are certainly all parts and parcels of the Supreme Lord, and no one is equal to Him, but among the parts and parcels there are different categories. In the Varāha Purāṇa it is nicely explained that some of the parts are svāṁśa and some are vibhinnāṁśa. Vibhinnāṁśa parts are called jīvas, and svāṁśa parts are in the Viṣṇu category. In the jīva category, the vibhinnāṁśa parts and parcels, there are also gradations. That is explained in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa, where it is clearly stated that the individual parts and parcels who can travel to any part of the Lord's creation are called sarva-gata and are suffering the pangs of material existence. They are subject to be freed from the coverings of ignorance under material existence according to different levels of work and under different influences of the modes of material nature. For example, the sufferings of jīvas who are situated in the mode of goodness are less than those of jīvas situated in the mode of ignorance. Pure Kṛṣṇa consciousness, is the birthright of all living entities because every living entity is part and parcel of the Supreme Lord. The consciousness of the Lord is also in the part and parcel, and according to the proportion to which that consciousness is cleared of material dirt, the living entities are differently situated. In the Vedānta-sūtra the living entities of different gradations are compared to candles or lamps with different candle power. For example, some electric bulbs have the power of one thousand candles, some have the power of 500 candles, some the power of 100 candles, some fifty candles, etc., but all electric bulbs have light. Light is present in every bulb, but the gradations of light are different. Similarly, there are gradations of Brahman. The Viṣṇu svāṁśa expansions of the Supreme Lord in different Viṣṇu forms are like lamps, Lord Śiva is also like a lamp, and the supreme candle power or the 100 percent light is Kṛṣṇa. The Viṣṇu-tattva has ninety-four percent, the Śiva-tattva has eighty-four percent, Lord Brahmā has seventy-eight percent, and the living entities are also like Brahmā, but in the conditioned state their power is still more dim. There are gradations of Brahman, and no one can deny this fact.

In the Vedānta-sūtra also it is stated, athāto brahma-jijñāsā: this human form of life is meant for realization of the Supreme Brahman or Absolute Truth, or, in other words, human life is meant for one's elevation to the post of a brāhmaṇa. Unfortunately the modern brāhmaṇas, or so-called brāhmaṇas who come in originally brahminical families, have left their own occupational duties, but they do not allow others to occupy the posts of brāhmaṇas. The qualifications for brāhmaṇas are described in the scriptures, in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā and all other Vedic literatures. Brāhmaṇa is not a hereditary title or position. If someone from a non-brāhmaṇa family (for example, one born in a family of śūdras) tries to become a brāhmaṇa by being properly qualified under the instruction of a bona fide spiritual master, these so-called brāhmaṇas will object. Such brāhmaṇas, being cursed by Nandīśvara, are actually in a position where they have no discrimination between eatables and noneatables and simply live to maintain the perishable material body and its family. Such fallen conditioned souls are not worthy to be called brāhmaṇas, but in Kali-yuga they claim to be brāhmaṇas, and if a person actually tries to attain the brahminical qualifications, they try to hinder his progress. This is the situation in the present age. Caitanya Mahāprabhu condemned this principle very strongly. During His conversation with Rāmānanda Rāya, He said that regardless of whether a person is born in a brāhmaṇa family or śūdra family, regardless of whether he is a householder or a sannyāsī, if he knows the science of Kṛṣṇa he must be a spiritual master. He had many so-called śūdra disciples like Haridāsa Ṭhākura and Rāmānanda Rāya.

Human civilization is based on the qualitative divisions of social order, namely the intelligent class, the martial class, the productive class and the laborer class. The Vedas provide the right direction for advancing in spiritual cultivation and economic development and regulating the principle of sense gratification, so that ultimately one may be liberated from material contamination to his real state of spiritual identification (ahaṁ brahmāsmi). As long as one is in the contamination of material existence, he changes bodies from the aquatics up to the position of Brahmā, but the human form of life is the highest perfectional life in the material world. The Vedas give direction how to elevate oneself in the next life, so the Vedas are the mother for such instructions, and the brāhmaṇas, or persons who are in knowledge of the Vedas, are the father. Thus if one blasphemes the Vedas and brāhmaṇas, naturally one goes down to the status of atheism. The exact word used in Sanskrit is nāstika, which means one who does not believe in the Vedas but manufactures some concocted system of religion. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has said that the followers of the Buddhist system of religion are nāstikas.

Because the living entities are parts and parcels of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they are all sons of the Lord, and for their benefit, because they are hovering under the impression that they can lord it over material nature, the Vedas are given to them for their guidance. Therefore the Vedas are called apauruṣeya, for they are not written by any man or demigod, including the first living creature, Brahmā. Brahmā is not the creator or author of the Vedas. He is also one of the living beings in this material world; therefore he does not have the power to write or speak the Vedas independently. Every living entity within this material world is subject to four deficiencies: he commits mistakes, he accepts one thing for another, he cheats, and he has imperfect senses. The Vedas, however, are not written by any living creature within this material world. Therefore they are said to be apauruṣeya. No one can trace out the history of the Vedas. Of course, modern human civilization has no chronological history of the world or the universe, and it cannot present actual historical facts older than 3,000 years. But no one has traced out when the Vedas were written, because they were never written by any living being within this material world. All other systems of knowledge are defective because they have been written or spoken by men or demigods who are products of this material creation, but Bhagavad-gītā is apauruṣeya, for it was not spoken by any human being or any demigod of this material creation; it was spoken by Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is beyond the material creation. That is accepted by such stalwart scholars as Śaṅkarācārya, not to speak of other ācāryas such as Rāmānujācārya and Madhvācārya. Śaṅkarācārya has accepted that Nārāyaṇa and Kṛṣṇa are transcendental, and in Bhagavad-gītā also Lord Kṛṣṇa has established, ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate: \"I am the origin of everything; everything has emanated from Me.\" This material creation, including Brahmā and Śiva and all the demigods, has been created by Him, for everything has emanated from Him. He also says that (vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ) the purpose of all the Vedas is to understand Him. He is the original veda-vit, or knower of Vedānta, and vedānta-kṛt, or compiler of the Vedas. Brahmā is not the compiler of the Vedas.", + "In the beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is established, tene brahma hṛdā: the Supreme Absolute Truth, the Personality of Godhead, instructed Brahmā in the Vedic knowledge through his heart. Therefore the evidence that Vedic knowledge is free from the defects of mistakes, illusions, cheating and imperfection is that it is spoken by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Janārdana, and has thus been followed from time immemorial, beginning from Brahmā. The Vedic religion or the principles of the Vedas have been followed by the highly cultured population of India since time immemorial; no one can trace out the history of Vedic religion. Therefore it is sanātana, and any blasphemy against the Vedas is calculated to be atheism. The Vedas are described as śetu, which means bridge. If one wants to attain his spiritual existence, one has to cross an ocean of nescience. The Vedas are the bridge to cross such a great ocean. The Vedas describe how to divide the human race into four divisions according to quality and working capacity. This is a very scientific system, and it is also sanātana, for no one can trace out its history, and it has no dissolution. No one can stop the system of varṇa and āśrama, or the castes and divisions. For example, whether or not one accepts the name brāhmaṇa, there is a class in society which is known as the intelligent class and which is interested in spiritual understanding and philosophy. Similarly, there is a class of men who are interested in administration and in ruling others. In the Vedic system these martially spirited men are called kṣatriyas. Similarly, everywhere there is a class of men who are interested in economic development, business, industry and moneymaking; they are called vaiśyas. And there is another class who are neither intelligent nor martially spirited nor endowed with the capacity for economic development but who simply can serve others. They are called śūdras, or the laborer class. This system is sanātana—it comes from time immemorial, and it will continue in the same way. There is no power in the world which can stop it. Therefore, since this sanātana-dharma system is eternal, one can elevate himself to the highest standard of spiritual life by following the Vedic principles. It is stated that formerly the sages followed this system; therefore to follow the Vedic system is to follow the standard etiquette of society. But the followers of Lord Śiva, who are drunkards, who are addicted to intoxicants and sex life, who do not bathe and who smoke gāñjā, are against all human etiquette. The conclusion is that persons who rebel against the Vedic principles are themselves the evidence that the Vedas are authoritative because by not following the Vedic principles they become like animals.

The sacrifice was not destroyed for want of Śiva and Dakṣa, and the sages went on with their activities. In other words, it may be assumed that if one does not worship the demigods, even up to Lord Śiva and Brahmā, one can nevertheless satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Kāmais tais tair hṛta jñānāḥ prapadyante 'nya-devatāḥ. Persons who are impelled by lust and desire go to the demigods to derive some material benefit. Bhagavad-gītā uses the very specific words naṣṭi-buddhiḥ, meaning persons who have lost their sense or intelligence. Only such persons care for demigods and want to derive material benefit from them. Of course, this does not mean that one should not show respect to the demigods, but there is no need to worship them. One who is honest may be faithful to the government, but he does not need to bribe the government servants. Bribery is illegal; one does not bribe a government servant, but that does not mean that he does not show him respect. Similarly, one who engages in the transcendental loving service of the Supreme Lord does not need to worship any demigod, nor does he have any tendency to show disrespect to the demigods. Elsewhere in Bhagavad-gītā it is stated, ye 'py anya-devatā-bhaktā yajante śraddhayānvitāḥ. The Lord says that anyone who worships the demigods is also worshiping Him, but he is worshiping avidhi-pūrvakam, which means without following the regulative principles. The regulative principle is to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Worship of demigods may indirectly be worship of the Personality of Godhead, but it is not regulated. By worshiping the Supreme Lord, one automatically serves all the demigods because they are parts and parcels of the whole. If one supplies water to the root of a tree, all the parts of the tree, such as the leaves and branches, are automatically satisfied, and if one supplies food to the stomach, all the limbs of the body—the hands, legs, fingers, etc.—are nourished. Thus by worshiping the Supreme Personality of Godhead one can satisfy all the demigods, but by worshiping all the demigods one does not completely worship the Supreme Lord.

This propensity is not unusual because woman is the basic principle of material enjoyment. Therefore in Sanskrit the word for woman is strī, which means one who expands the field of material enjoyment. In the material world there is an attraction between woman and man. This is the arrangement of conditional life. A woman attracts a man, and in that way the scope of material activities, involving house, wealth, children and friendship, increases, and thus instead of decreasing one's material demands, one becomes entangled in material enjoyment. Lord Śiva, however, is different; therefore his name is Śiva. He is not at all attracted by material enjoyment, although his wife, Satī, was the daughter of a very great leader and was given to him by the request of Brahmā. Lord Śiva was reluctant, but Satī, as a woman, the daughter of a king, wanted enjoyment. She wanted to go to her father's house, just as her other sisters might have done, and meet them and enjoy social life. Here, she specifically indicated that she would decorate herself with the ornaments given by her father. She did not say that she would decorate herself with the ornaments given by her husband because her husband was callous about all such matters. He did not know how to decorate his wife and take part in social life because he was always in ecstasy with thoughts of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. According to the Vedic system, a daughter is given a sufficient dowry at the time of her marriage, so Satī was also given a dowry by her father, and ornaments were included. It is also the custom that the husband gives some ornaments, but here it is particularly mentioned that her husband, being materially almost nothing, could not do so; therefore she wanted to decorate herself with the ornaments given by her father. It was fortunate for Satī that Lord Śiva did not take the ornaments from his wife and spend them for gāñjā because those who imitate Lord Śiva in smoking gāñjā exploit everything from household affairs; they take all of their wives' property and spend on smoking, intoxication and similar other activities." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/10.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/10.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a57c5012 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/10.json @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 10, + "reference": "SB 4.3.10", + "devanagari": "तत्र स्वसे᳙र्मे ननु भर्तृसम्मिता मातृष्वसेः᳙ क्लिन्नधियं च मातरम्\nद्रक्ष्ये चिरोत्कण्ठमना महर्षिभिर् उन्नीयमानं च मृडाध्वरध्वजम्", + "transliteration": "tatra svasèr me nanu bhartṛ-sammitā\nmātṛ-ṣvasèḥ klinna-dhiyaṁ ca mātaram\ndrakṣye cirotkaṇṭha-manā maharṣibhir\nunnīyamānaṁ ca mṛḍādhvara-dhvajam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svasèḥ", + "meanings": [ + "own sisters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nanu", + "meanings": [ + "surely" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhartṛ-sammitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "along with their husbands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mātṛ-svasèḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sisters of my mother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "klinna-dhiyam", + "meanings": [ + "affectionate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mātaram", + "meanings": [ + "mother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "drakṣye", + "meanings": [ + "I shall see" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cira-utkaṇṭha-manāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being very anxious for a long time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maharṣibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "great sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "unnīyamānam", + "meanings": [ + "being raised" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛḍa", + "meanings": [ + "O Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhvara", + "meanings": [ + "sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhvajam", + "meanings": [ + "flags." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My sisters, the sisters of my mother and their husbands and other affectionate relatives must be assembled there, so if I go I shall be able to see them, and I shall be able to see the flapping flags and the performance of the sacrifice by the great sages.

She stated, \"The illusion of accepting the perverted reflection, the material or cosmic manifestation, to be real is not present in you, because you are self-realized. For you the attraction of social life and the consideration that someone is father, someone is mother and someone is sister, which are illusory relationships, is already over, but because I am a poor woman I am not so advanced in transcendental realization. Therefore naturally these appear to me as real.\" Only less intelligent persons accept this perverted reflection of the spiritual world to be real. Those who are under the spell of the external energy accept this manifestation to be fact, whereas those who are advanced in spiritual realization know that it is illusion. Actual reality is elsewhere, in the spiritual world. \"But as far as I am concerned,\" Satī said, \"I do not have much knowledge about self-realization. I am poor because I do not know the actual facts. I am attracted by my birthplace, and I want to see it.\" One who has attraction for his birthplace, for his body, and for other such items mentioned in the Bhāgavatam is considered to be like an ass or a cow. Satī might have heard all this many times from her husband, Lord Śiva, but because she was a woman, yoṣit, she still hankered after the same material objects of affection. The word yoṣit means \"one who is enjoyed.\" Therefore woman is called yoṣit. In spiritual advancement, association with yoṣit is always restricted because if one is like a play doll in the hands of yoṣit, then all his spiritual advancement is at once stopped.

Actually Rudra, Lord Śiva, is born from the eyes of Brahmā, who is called svāyambhuva because he is not born of any human being or material creature but is born directly from the lotus flower which grows from the abdomen of Viṣṇu. When Lord Śiva is addressed here as abhava, this may be taken to mean one who has never felt material miseries. Satī wanted to impress upon her husband that even those who were not related to her father were also going, to say nothing of herself, who was intimately related with him. Lord Śiva is addressed here as blue-throated. Lord Śiva drank an ocean of poison and kept it in his throat, not swallowing it or allowing it to go down to his stomach, and thus his throat became blue. Since then he has been known as nīlakaṇṭha, or blue throated. The reason that Lord Śiva drank an ocean of poison was for others' benefit. When the ocean was churned by the demigods and the demons, the churning at first produced poison, so because the poisonous ocean might have affected others who were not so advanced, Lord Śiva drank all the ocean water. In other words, he could drink such a great amount of poison for others' benefit, and now, since his wife was personally requesting him to go to her father's house, even if he did not wish to give that permission, he should do so out of his great kindness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b08fbecc --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,115 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 4.3.13", + "devanagari": "कथं सुतायाः पितृगेहकौतुकं निशम्य देहः सुरवर्य नेंगते\nअनाहुता अप्य् अभियन्ति सौहृदं भर्तुर्गुरोर्देहकृतश्च केतनम्", + "transliteration": "kathaṁ sutāyāḥ pitṛ-geha-kautukaṁ\nniśamya dehaḥ sura-varya neṅgate\nanāhutā apy abhiyanti sauhṛdaṁ\nbhartur guror deha-kṛtaś ca ketanam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "how" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sutāyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of a daughter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitṛ-geha-kautukam", + "meanings": [ + "the festival in the house of her father" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niśamya", + "meanings": [ + "hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dehaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sura-varya", + "meanings": [ + "O best of the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iṅgate", + "meanings": [ + "disturbed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anāhutāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without being called" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiyanti", + "meanings": [ + "goes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sauhṛdam", + "meanings": [ + "a friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhartuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guroḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the spiritual master" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deha-kṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the father" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ketanam", + "meanings": [ + "the house." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O best of the demigods, how can the body of a daughter remain undisturbed when she hears that some festive event is taking place in her father's house?

In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that a liberated person is always in mental equilibrium in both the distress and the happiness of this material world. Therefore the question may now be raised why a liberated personality like Lord Śiva was so unhappy because of the words of Dakṣa. The answer is given by Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura. Lord Śiva is ātmārāma, or situated in complete self-realization, but because he is the incarnation in charge of the material mode of ignorance, tamoguṇa, he is sometimes affected by the pleasure and pain of the material world. The difference between the pleasure and pain of this material world and that of the spiritual world is that in the spiritual world the effect is qualitatively absolute. Therefore one may feel sorry in the absolute world, but the manifestation of so-called pain is always full of bliss. For instance, once Lord Kṛṣṇa, in His childhood, was chastised by His mother, Yaśodā, and Lord Kṛṣṇa cried. But although He shed tears from His eyes, this is not to be considered a reaction of the mode of ignorance, for the incident was full of transcendental pleasure. When Kṛṣṇa was playing in so many ways, sometimes it appeared that He caused distress to the gopīs, but actually such dealings were full of transcendental bliss. That is the difference between the material and spiritual worlds. The spiritual world, where everything is pure, is pervertedly reflected in this material world. Since everything in the spiritual world is absolute, in the spiritual varieties of apparent pleasure and pain there is no other perception than eternal bliss, whereas in the material world, because everything is contaminated by the modes of material nature, there are feelings of pleasure and pain. Therefore because Lord Śiva, although a fully self-realized person, was in charge of the material mode of ignorance, he felt sorrow." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..dd656086 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 4.3.16", + "devanagari": "श्री भगवान् उवाच\nत्वयोदितं शोभनम् एव शोभने अनाहुता अप्य् अभियन्ति बन्धुषु\nते यद्य् अनुत्पादितदोषदृष्टयो बलीयसानात्म्यमदेन मन्युना", + "transliteration": "śrī bhagavān uvāca\ntvayoditaṁ śobhanam eva śobhane\nanāhutā apy abhiyanti bandhuṣu\nte yady anutpādita-doṣa-dṛṣṭayo\nbalīyasānātmyamadena manyunā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-bhagavān uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "the great lord replied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvayā", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uditam", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śobhanam", + "meanings": [ + "is true" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śobhane", + "meanings": [ + "my dear beautiful wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anāhutāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without being invited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiyanti", + "meanings": [ + "go" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bandhuṣu", + "meanings": [ + "among friends" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "those (friends)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadi", + "meanings": [ + "if" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anutpādita-doṣa-dṛṣṭayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "not finding fault" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balīyasā", + "meanings": [ + "more important" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anātmyamadena", + "meanings": [ + "by pride caused by identification with the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manyunā", + "meanings": [ + "by anger." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The great lord replied: My dear beautiful wife, you have said that one may go to a friend's house without being invited, and this is true, provided such a friend does not find fault with the guest because of bodily identification and thereby become angry towards him.", + "purport": [ + "Lord Śiva could foresee that as soon as Satī reached her father's house, her father, Dakṣa, being too puffed up because of bodily identification, would be angry at her presence, and although she was innocent and faultless, he would be mercilessly angry towards her.

The answer is that when the qualities of good education, good parentage, beauty and sufficient wealth are misplaced in a person who is puffed up by all these possessions, they produce a very bad result. Milk is a very nice food, but when milk is touched by an envious serpent it becomes poisonous. Similarly, material assets such as education, wealth, beauty and good parentage are undoubtedly nice, but when they decorate persons of a malicious nature, then they act adversely. Another example, given by Cāṇakya Paṇḍita, is that a serpent that has a jewel on its head is still fearful because it is a serpent. A serpent, by nature, is envious of other living entities, even though they be faultless. When a serpent bites another creature, it is not necessarily because the other creature is at fault; it is the habit of the serpent to bite innocent creatures. Similarly, although Dakṣa was qualified by many material assets, because he was proud of his possessions and because he was envious, all those qualities were polluted. It is sometimes, therefore, detrimental for a person advancing in spiritual consciousness or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, to possess such material assets. Kuntīdevī, while offering prayers to Kṛṣṇa, addressed Him as akiñcana-gocara, one who is easily approached by those who are bereft of all material acquisitions. Material exhaustion is an advantage for advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, although if one is conscious of his eternal relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he can utilize his material assets, such as great learning and beauty and exalted ancestry, for the service of the Lord; then such assets become glorious. In other words, unless one is Kṛṣṇa conscious, all his material possessions are zero, but when this zero is by the side of the Supreme One, it at once increases in value to ten. Unless situated by the side of the Supreme One, zero is always zero; one may add one hundred zeros, but the value will still remain zero. Unless one's material assets are used in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, they may play havoc and degrade the possessor." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e81fd64a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/03/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 4.3.18", + "devanagari": "नैतादृशानां स्वजनव्यपेक्षया गृहान्प्रतीयाद् अनवस्थितात्मनाम्\nये ऽभ्यागतान्वक्रधियाभिचक्षते आरोपितभ्रूभिर् अमर्षणाक्षिभिः", + "transliteration": "naitādṛśānāṁ svajana-vyapekṣayā\ngṛhān pratīyād anavasthitātmanām\nye 'bhyāgatān vakra-dhiyābhicakṣate\nāropita-bhrūbhir amarṣaṇākṣibhiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etādṛśānām", + "meanings": [ + "like this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svajana", + "meanings": [ + "kinsmen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyapekṣayā", + "meanings": [ + "depending on that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhān", + "meanings": [ + "in the house of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratīyāt", + "meanings": [ + "one should go" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anavasthita", + "meanings": [ + "disturbed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanām", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhyāgatān", + "meanings": [ + "guests" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vakra-dhiyā", + "meanings": [ + "with a cold reception" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhicakṣate", + "meanings": [ + "looking at" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āropita-bhrūbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with raised eyebrows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amarṣaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "angry" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṣibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the eyes." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One should not go to anyone's house, even on the consideration of his being a relative or a friend, when the man is disturbed in his mind and looks upon the guest with raised eyebrows and angry eyes.", + "purport": [ + "However low a person may be, he is never unkind to his children, wife and nearest kin; even a tiger is kind to its cubs, for within the animal kingdom the cubs are treated very nicely.

There were many other reasons also. Dakṣa, being materially puffed up, could not tolerate the high position of Lord Śiva, so his anger at Lord Śiva's not standing up in his presence was only the final manifestation of his envy. Lord Śiva is always in meditation and always perceives the Supersoul, as expressed here by the words pūruṣa-buddhi-sākṣiṇām. The position of one whose intelligence is always absorbed in meditation upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead is very great and cannot be imitated by anyone, especially an ordinary person. When Dakṣa entered the arena of yajña, Lord Śiva was in meditation and might not have seen Dakṣa enter, but Dakṣa took the opportunity to curse him because he had maintained an envious attitude towards Lord Śiva for a long time.

Thus one who is always in meditation upon the Supreme Lord is always offering Him obeisances. But since Dakṣa was not very elevated, he thought that obeisances were offered to the material body, and because Lord Śiva did not offer respect to his material body, Dakṣa became envious. Such persons, being unable to rise to the standard of self-realized souls like Lord Śiva, are always envious. The example given here is very suitable. Asuras, demons or atheists, are always envious of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; they simply want to kill Him. Even in this age we find some so-called scholars commenting on Bhagavad-gītā who are envious of Kṛṣṇa. When Kṛṣṇa says, manmanā bhava mad-bhakto (Bg. 18.65)—\"Always think of Me, become My devotee, and surrender unto Me\"—the so-called scholars comment that it is not to Kṛṣṇa that we have to surrender. That is envy. The asuras or atheists, the demons, without reason or cause, are envious of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Therefore the spiritual master also offers respect to the Supersoul situated in the body of the disciple. The Lord says in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that offering respect to His devotee is more valuable than offering respect to Himself. Devotees do not identify with the body, so offering respect to a Vaiṣṇava means offering respect to Viṣṇu. It is stated also that, as a matter of etiquette, as soon as one sees a Vaiṣṇava he must immediately offer him respect, indicating the Supersoul sitting within. A Vaiṣṇava sees the body as a temple of Viṣṇu.

The identification of the body with the soul is due to misunderstanding. As soon as one is fully Kṛṣṇa conscious it is to be understood that he is in his pure, original constitutional position. This state of existence is called śuddha-sattva, which means that it is transcendental to the material qualities. Since this śuddha-sattva existence is under the direct action of the internal potency, in this state the activities of material consciousness stop. For example, when iron is put into a fire, it becomes warm, and when it is red-hot, although it is iron, it acts like fire. Similarly, when copper is surcharged with electricity, its action as copper stops; it acts as electricity. It is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā that anyone who engages in unadulterated devotional service to the Lord is at once elevated to the position of pure Brahman:", + "māṁ ca yo 'vyabhicāreṇa bhakti-yogena sevate
sa guṇān samatītyaitān brahma-bhūyāya kalpate
 (Bg. 14.26)", + "Therefore śuddha-sattva, as described in this verse, is the transcendental position, which is technically called vasudeva. Vasudeva is also the name of the person from whom Kṛṣṇa appears. This verse explains that the pure state is called vasudeva because in that state Vāsudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is revealed without any covering. To execute unadulterated devotional service, therefore, one must follow the rules and regulations of devotional service without desire to gain material profit by fruitive activities or mental speculation.", + "In pure devotional service one simply serves the Supreme Personality of Godhead as a matter of duty, without reason and without being impeded by material conditions. That is called śuddha-sattva, or vasudeva, because in that stage the Supreme Person, Kṛṣṇa, is revealed in the heart of the devotee. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has very nicely described this vasudeva or śuddha-sattva, in his Bhagavat-sandarbha. He explains that aṣṭottara-śata (108) is added to the name of the spiritual master to indicate one who is situated in śuddha-sattva or in the transcendental state of vasudeva. The word vasudeva is also used for other purposes. For example, vasudeva also means one who is everywhere or all-pervading. The sun is also called vasudeva-śabditam. The word vasudeva may be utilized for different purposes, but whatever purpose we adopt, Vāsudeva means the all-pervading or localized Supreme Personality of Godhead. In Bhagavad-gītā it is also stated, Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti (Bg. 7.19). Factual realization is to understand Vāsudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and surrender unto Him. Vasudeva is the field where Vāsudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is revealed. When one is free from the contamination of material nature and is situated in pure Kṛṣṇa consciousness or in the vasudeva state, Vāsudeva, the Supreme Person, is revealed. This state is also called kaivalya, which means pure consciousness. Jñānaṁ sāttvikaṁ kaivalyam. When one is situated in pure, transcendental knowledge, one is situated in kaivalya. Therefore vasudeva also means kaivalya, a word which is generally used by impersonalists. Impersonal kaivalya is not the last stage of realization, but in Kṛṣṇa consciousness kaivalya, when one understands the Supreme Personality of Godhead, then he is successful. In that pure state, by hearing, chanting, remembering, etc., because of the development of knowledge of the science of Kṛṣṇa, one can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead. All these activities are under the guidance of the internal energy of the Supreme Lord. The action of the internal potency is also described in this verse as apāvṛtaḥ, free from any covering. Because the Supreme Personality of Godhead, His name, His form, His quality, His paraphernalia, etc., are beyond material nature, being transcendental, it is not possible to understand any one of them with the materialistic senses. When the senses are purified by the discharge of pure devotional service (hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate), the pure senses can see Kṛṣṇa without covering. Now one may inquire that since factually the devotee has the same material existential body, how is it possible that the same materialistic eyes become purified by devotional service? The example, as stated by Lord Caitanya, is that devotional service cleanses the mirror of the mind. In a clean mirror one can see his face very distinctly. Similarly, simply by cleansing the mirror of the mind one can have a clear conception of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā, abhyāsa-yoga-yuktena. By executing one's prescribed duties in devotional service, cetasā nānyagāminā (Bg. 8.8), or simply by hearing about God and chanting about Him, if one's mind is always engaged in chanting and hearing and is not allowed to go elsewhere, one can realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As confirmed by Lord Caitanya, by the bhakti-yoga process, beginning from hearing and chanting, one can cleanse the heart and mind, and thus one can clearly see the face of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "Lord Śiva said that since his heart was always filled with the conception of Vāsudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, because of His presence within his mind and heart, he was always offering obeisances unto Him. In other words, Lord Śiva is always in trance, samādhi. This samādhi is not under the control of the devotee; it is under the control of Vāsudeva, for the entire internal energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead acts under His order. Of course, the material energy also acts by His order, but His direct will is specifically executed through the spiritual energy. Thus by His spiritual energy He reveals Himself. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā, sambhavāmy ātma-māyayā (Bg. 4.6). Ātma-māyayā means internal potency. By His sweet will He reveals Himself by His internal potency, being satisfied by the transcendental loving service of the devotee. The devotee never commands, \"My dear Lord, please come here so that I can see You.\" It is not the position of the devotee to command the Supreme Personality of Godhead to come before him or to dance before him. There are many so-called devotees who command the Lord to come before them dancing. The Lord, however, is not subject to anyone's command, but if He is satisfied by one's pure devotional activities, He reveals Himself. Therefore a meaningful word in this verse is adhokṣaja, for it indicates that the activities of our material senses will fail to realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One cannot realize the Supreme Personality of Godhead simply by the attempt of his speculative mind, but if one desires he can subdue all the material activities of his senses, and by manifesting His spiritual energy the Lord can reveal Himself to the pure devotee. When the Supreme Personality of Godhead reveals Himself to the pure devotee, the devotee has no other duty than to offer Him respectful obeisances. The Absolute Truth reveals Himself to the devotee in His form. He is not formless. Vāsudeva is not formless because it is stated in this verse that as soon as the Lord reveals Himself, the devotee offers his obeisances.

The brāhmaṇas who were entrusted with the performance of yajña were very realized souls, and to test their realization an old animal was offered in the fire and again rejuvenated. That was the test of a Vedic mantra. The animals gathered were not meant to be killed and eaten.

Not knowing this fact, less intelligent men offer sacrifices for some material benefit. To derive personal material benefit for sense gratification is the reason persons like Dakṣa and his followers perform sacrifices. Such sacrifices are condemned here as a labor of love without actual profit. This is confirmed in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. One may prosecute the Vedic injunctions of offering sacrifices and other fruitive activities, but if by such activities one does not develop attraction for Viṣṇu, they are useless labors. One who has developed love for Viṣṇu must develop love and respect for Viṣṇu's devotees. Lord Śiva is considered the foremost personality amongst the Vaiṣṇavas. Vaiṣṇavānāṁ yathā śambhuḥ. Thus when Satī saw that her father was performing great sacrifices but had no respect for the greatest devotee, Lord Śiva, she was very angry. This is fitting; when Viṣṇu or a Vaiṣṇava is insulted, one should be angry. Lord Caitanya, who always preached nonviolence, meekness and humility, also became angry when Nityānanda was offended by Jagāi and Mādhāi, and He wanted to kill them. When Viṣṇu or a Vaiṣṇava is blasphemed or dishonored, one should be very angry. Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura said, krodha bhakta dveṣi jane. We have anger, and that anger can be a great quality when directed against a person who is envious of the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His devotee. One should not be tolerant when a person is offensive towards Viṣṇu or a Vaiṣṇava.

If one is actually a devotee of Lord Śiva, he comes to the platform of spiritual realization, but if he is not intelligent enough, then he stops at that point, only realizing that he is spirit soul (ahaṁ brahmāsmi).

You have shown so many defects, but you do not know that his position is always transcendental. Although he appears inauspicious, why do personalities like Brahmā respect the dust of his lotus feet and place on their heads with great respect those very garlands which are condemned by you?\" Since Satī was a chaste woman and the wife of Lord Śiva, it was her duty to establish the elevated position of Lord Śiva, not only by sentiment but by facts. Lord Śiva is not an ordinary living entity. This is the conclusion of Vedic scripture. He is neither on the level of the Supreme Personality of Godhead nor on the level of the ordinary living entities. Brahmā is in almost all cases an ordinary living entity. Sometimes, when there is no ordinary living entity available, the post of Brahmā is occupied by an expansion of Lord Viṣṇu, but generally this post is occupied by a greatly pious living entity within this universe. Thus constitutionally Lord Śiva's position is higher than that of Lord Brahmā, although Lord Śiva appeared as the son of Brahmā. Here it is mentioned that even personalities like Brahmā accept the so-called inauspicious flowers and the dust of the lotus feet of Lord Śiva. Great sages like Marīci, Atri, Bhṛgu and the other nine great sages who are descendants of Brahmā also respect Lord Śiva in such a way because they all know that Lord Śiva is not an ordinary living entity.", + "In many Purāṇas it is sometimes asserted that a demigod is elevated to such a high position that he is almost on an equal level with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but the conclusion that Lord Viṣṇu is the Supreme Personality of Godhead is confirmed in every scripture. Lord Śiva is described in the Brahma-saṁhitā to be like curd or yogurt. Curd is not different from milk. Since milk is transformed into curd, in one sense curd is also milk. Similarly, Lord Śiva is in one sense the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but in another sense he is not, just as curd is milk although we have to distinguish between the two. These descriptions are in the Vedic literature. Whenever we find that a demigod occupies a position apparently more elevated than that of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, it is just to draw the devotee's attention to that particular demigod. It is also stated in the Bhagavad-gītā that if one wants to worship a particular demigod, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is sitting in everyone's heart, gives him greater and greater attachment for that demigod so that he may be elevated to the demigod's abode. Yānti deva-vratā devān (Bg. 9.25). By worshiping demigods one can elevate himself to the abodes of the demigods; similarly, by worshiping the Supreme Personality of Godhead one can be elevated to the spiritual kingdom. This is stated in different places in Vedic literature. Here Lord Śiva is praised by Satī, partially due to her personal respect for Lord Śiva, since he is her husband, and partially due to his exalted position, which exceeds that of ordinary living entities, even Lord Brahmā. The position of Lord Śiva is accepted by Lord Brahmā, so Dakṣa, Satī's father, should also recognize him. That was the point of Satī's statement.

But, by the same argument, Dakṣa could also defend himself by saying that since he was a Prajāpati, the master of many living creatures and one of the great officers of the great universal affairs, his position was so exalted that Satī should accept his good qualities instead of vilifying him. The answer to that argument is that Satī was not vilifying but defending. If possible she should have cut out Dakṣa's tongue because he blasphemed Lord Śiva. In other words, since Lord Śiva is the protector of religion, a person who vilifies him should be killed at once, and after killing such a person, one should give up his life. That is the process, but because Dakṣa happened to be the father of Satī, she decided not to kill him but to give up her own life in order to compensate for the great sin she had committed by hearing blasphemy of Lord Śiva. The instruction set forth here in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is that one should not tolerate at any cost the activities of a person who vilifies or blasphemes an authority. If one is a brāhmaṇa he should not give up his body because by doing so he would be responsible for killing a brāhmaṇa; therefore a brāhmaṇa should leave the place or block his ears so that he will not hear the blasphemy. If one happens to be a kṣatriya he has the power to punish any man; therefore a kṣatriya should at once cut out the tongue of the vilifier and kill him. But as far as the vaiśyas and śūdras are concerned, they should immediately give up their bodies. Satī decided to give up her body because she thought herself to be among the śūdras and vaiśyas. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, striyo vaiśyās tathā śūdrāḥ (Bg. 9.32). Women, laborers and the mercantile class are on the same level.

A sannyāsī cannot act like a householder, nor can a householder act like a sannyāsī, but above these two kinds of persons, one who engages in material activities and one who has renounced material activities, there is the person who is transcendental to both. Lord Śiva is in the transcendental position because, as stated before, he is always absorbed in the thought of Lord Vāsudeva within himself. Therefore neither the activities of the gṛhastha nor those of the sannyāsī in the renounced order can be applicable for him. He is in the paramahaṁsa stage, the highest perfectional stage of life. The transcendental position of Lord Śiva is also explained in Bhagavad-gītā, Second Chapter, verse 52 and 53. It is stated there that when one fully engages in transcendental service of the Lord by performing activities without fruitive results, one is elevated to the transcendental position. At that time he has no obligation to follow the Vedic injunctions or the different rules and regulations of the Vedas. When one is above the directions of the Vedic ritualistic injunctions for attaining different allurements and is fully absorbed in transcendental thought, which means thought of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in devotional service, that position called buddhi-yoga, or samādhi, ecstasy.

Her husband's position was different. He possessed all opulences, but he did not like to exhibit them. Therefore such opulences are called avyakta, or unmanifested. But if required, simply by willing, Lord Śiva can show his wonderful opulences, and such an event is predicted here, for it would soon occur.

Although in all cases Viṣṇu is the chief Deity on the sacrificial altar, the performers of fruitive rituals aim to satisfy various demigods to achieve in return some material prosperity. Real sacrifice, however, is to satisfy Lord Viṣṇu, and the remnants of such sacrifices are beneficial for advancement in devotional service. The process of elevation by performing sacrifices other than those aimed at Viṣṇu is very slow, and therefore it has been condemned in this verse.

Lord Śiva's worshipers sometimes appear to be more opulent than the worshipers of Lord Viṣṇu because Durgā, or Satī, being the superintendent in charge of material affairs, can offer all material opulences to the worshipers of Lord Śiva in order to glorify her husband, but the worshipers of Viṣṇu are meant for spiritual elevation, and therefore their material opulence is sometimes found to decrease.

The perfection of yoga is that one can give up one's body or release oneself from the embodiment of material elements according to one's desire. Yogīs who have attained perfection are not subject to death by natural laws; such perfect yogīs can leave the body whenever they desire. Generally the yogī first of all becomes mature in controlling the air passing within the body, thus bringing the soul to the top of the brain.

The air is raised from the abdomen to the navel, from the navel to the heart, from the heart to the throat, from the throat to between the eyebrows and from between the eyebrows to the top of the cerebrum. That is the sum and substance of practicing yoga. Before practicing the real yoga system one has to practice the sitting postures because this helps in the breathing exercises which control the airs going upwards and downwards. This is a great technique which one has to practice to attain the highest perfectional stage of yoga, but such practice is not meant for this age. No one in this age can attain the perfectional stage of such yoga, but people indulge in practicing sitting postures, which is more or less a gymnastic process. By such bodily gymnastics one may develop good circulation and may therefore keep his body fit, but if one simply restricts oneself to that gymnastic process one cannot attain the highest perfectional stage. The yoga process, as described in the Keśava-śruti, prescribes how one can control his living force according to his desire and transmigrate from one body to another or from one place to another. In other words, yoga practice is not meant to keep the body fit because any transcendental process of spiritual realization automatically helps one to keep the body fit, for it is the spirit soul that keeps the body always fresh. As soon as the spirit soul is out of the body, the material body immediately begins to decompose. Any spiritual process keeps the body fit without separate endeavor, but if one takes it that the ultimate aim of yoga is to maintain the body, then he is mistaken. The real perfection of yoga is elevation of the soul to a higher position or the liberation of the soul from material entanglement. Some yogīs try to elevate the soul to higher planetary systems where the standard of life is different from that of this planet and where the material comforts, life-span and other facilities for self-realization are greater, and some yogīs endeavor to elevate the soul to the spiritual world, the spiritual Vaikuṇṭha planets. The bhakti-yoga process directly elevates the soul to the spiritual planets where life is eternally blissful and full of knowledge; therefore bhakti-yoga is considered to be the greatest of all yoga systems." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/04/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/04/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..40c21471 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/04/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 4.4.26", + "devanagari": "एवं स्वदेहं महतां महीयसा मुहुः समारोपितम् अंकम् आदरात्\nजिहासती दक्षरुषा मनस्विनी दधार गात्रेष्व् अनिलाग्निधारणाम्", + "transliteration": "evaṁ sva-dehaṁ mahatāṁ mahīyasā\nmuhuḥ samāropitam aṅkam ādarāt\njihāsatī dakṣa-ruṣā manasvinī\ndadhāra gātreṣv anilāgni-dhāraṇām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-deham", + "meanings": [ + "her own body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahatām", + "meanings": [ + "of the great saints" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahīyasā", + "meanings": [ + "most worshipful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "again and again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samāropitam", + "meanings": [ + "seated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅkam", + "meanings": [ + "on the lap" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādarāt", + "meanings": [ + "respectfully" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jihāsatī", + "meanings": [ + "wishing to give up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dakṣa-ruṣā", + "meanings": [ + "due to anger towards Dakṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manasvinī", + "meanings": [ + "voluntarily" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadhāra", + "meanings": [ + "placed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gātreṣu", + "meanings": [ + "on the limbs of the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anila-agni-dhāraṇām", + "meanings": [ + "meditation on the fire and air." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus, in order to give up her body, which had been so respectfully and affectionately seated on the lap of Lord Śiva, who is worshiped by great sages and saints, Satī, due to anger towards her father, began to meditate on the fiery air within the body.", + "purport": [ + "Lord Śiva is described herein as the best of all great souls.

This severe example set by Satī is to be followed. One should be extremely careful about associating with persons who are not respectful to the higher authorities. It is instructed, therefore, in the Vedic literature that one should always be free from the association of atheists and nondevotees and should try to associate with devotees, for by the association of a devotee one can be elevated to the platform of self-realization. This injunction is stressed in many places in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam; if one wants to be liberated from the clutches of material existence, then one has to associate with great souls, and if one wants to continue one's material existential life, then one may associate with persons who are materialistic. The materialistic way of life is based on sex life. Thus both becoming addicted to sex life and associating with persons who are addicted to sex life are condemned in the Vedic literature because such association will simply interfere with one's spiritual progress. However, association with great personalities, devotees who are great souls, will elevate one to the spiritual platform. Satīdevī decided to quit the body she had obtained from Dakṣa's body, and she wanted to transfer herself to another body so that she might have completely uncontaminated association with Lord Śiva. Of course it is understood that in her next life she would take birth as the daughter of the Himalayas, Pārvatī, and then she would again accept Lord Śiva as her husband.

This pleasure was certainly material because she gave up her body for another body that was also material, but by this example we can appreciate the devotee's pleasure in concentrating his mind and attention on the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord, Viṣṇu or Kṛṣṇa. There is such transcendental bliss in simply meditating on the lotus feet of the Lord that one can forget everything but the Lord's transcendental form. This is the perfection of yogic samādhi or ecstasy. In this verse it is stated that by such meditation she became free from all contamination. What was that contamination? The contamination was her concept of the body derived from Dakṣa, but she forgot that bodily relationship in trance. The purport is that when one becomes free from all bodily relationships within this material world and simply places himself in the position of an eternal servant of the Supreme Lord, it is to be understood that all the contamination of his material attachment has been burnt by the blazing fires of transcendental ecstasy. It is not necessary for one to manifest a blazing fire externally, for if one forgets all his bodily relationships within this material world and becomes situated in his spiritual identity, it is said that one has been freed from all material contamination by the blazing fire of yogic samādhi or ecstasy. That is the topmost perfection of yoga. If one keeps his bodily relationships within this material world and poses himself as a great yogī, he is not a bona fide yogī. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Second Canto, it is stated, yat-kīrtanaṁ yat-smaraṇaṁ (Bhag. 2.4.15). Simply by chanting the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, simply by remembering the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, simply by offering prayers to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one is immediately freed from material contamination, the material bodily concept, by the blazing fire of ecstasy. This effect takes place immediately, without a second's delay.", + "According to Śrī Jīva Gosvāmī, that Satī quit her body means that she gave up within her heart her relationship with Dakṣa. Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura also comments that since Satī is the superintendent deity of the external potency, when she quit her body she did not get a spiritual body but simply transferred from the body she had received from Dakṣa. Other commentators also say that she immediately transferred herself into the womb of Menakā, her future mother. She gave up the body she had received from Dakṣa and immediately transferred herself to another, better body, but this does not mean that she got a spiritual body." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/04/verses/28.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/04/verses/28.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9e3b341f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/04/verses/28.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 28, + "reference": "SB 4.4.28", + "devanagari": "तत्पश्यतां खे भुवि चाद्भुतं महद्हा हेति वादः सुमहान् अजायत\nहन्त प्रिया दैवतमस्य देवी जहाव् असून्केन सती प्रकोपिता", + "transliteration": "tat paśyatāṁ khe bhuvi cādbhutaṁ mahad\nhā heti vādaḥ su-mahān ajāyata\nhanta priyā daivatamasya devī\njahāv asūn kena satī prakopitā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśyatām", + "meanings": [ + "of those who had seen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "khe", + "meanings": [ + "in the sky" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvi", + "meanings": [ + "on the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adbhutam", + "meanings": [ + "wonderful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahat", + "meanings": [ + "great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hā hā", + "meanings": [ + "oh, oh" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vādaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "roar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-mahān", + "meanings": [ + "tumultuous" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajāyata", + "meanings": [ + "occurred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hanta", + "meanings": [ + "alas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyā", + "meanings": [ + "the beloved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daivatamasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the most respectable demigod (Lord Śiva)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devī", + "meanings": [ + "Satī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jahau", + "meanings": [ + "quit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asūn", + "meanings": [ + "her life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kena", + "meanings": [ + "by Dakṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satī", + "meanings": [ + "Satī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prakopitā", + "meanings": [ + "angered." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When Satī annihilated her body in anger, there was a tumultuous roar all over the universe.

Since she was the daughter of a great personality and wife of a great personality, she had nothing to desire, but still she gave up her body in dissatisfaction. Certainly this was astonishing.

There was nothing Satī could not achieve either from her relationship with her father or from her relationship with the greatest of the demigods, but still, for some reason, she was dissatisfied.

But in spite of his being so stronghearted, he was perturbed when he saw the various disturbances created by the gigantic black demon. Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura remarks in this connection that even if one is called mahātmā, a great soul, unless he exhibits the symptoms of a mahātmā, he should be considered a durātmā, or a degraded soul. In Bhagavad-gītā the word mahātmā describes the pure devotee of the Lord: mahātmānas tu māṁ pārtha daivīṁ prakṛtim āśritāḥ (Bg. 9.13). A mahātmā is always under the guidance of the internal energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and thus how could such a misbehaved person as Dakṣa be a mahātmā? A mahātmā is supposed to have all the good qualities of the demigods, and thus Dakṣa, lacking those qualities, could not be called a mahātmā; he should instead be called durātmā, a degraded soul.

In that challenging spirit, a fight was sure to occur, and in such fights there was commonly killing and misfortune. After finishing such fighting, the parties would come to a compromise, and everything would be settled. This Dakṣa yajña was similar to such events.

In other words, just as the Ganges is sacred because its water emanates from the toes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nārāyaṇa, so whenever water or anything is in touch with devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, it is purified and spiritualized. The rules and regulations of devotional service are based on this principle: anything in touch with the lotus feet of the Lord is immediately freed from all material contamination. The damsels of the heavenly planets, polluted by thoughts of sex life, come down to bathe in the sanctified rivers and enjoy sprinkling water on their husbands.", + "Two words are very significant in this connection. Rati-karśita means that the damsels become morose after sex enjoyment. Although they accept sex enjoyment as a bodily demand, afterwards they are not happy. Another significant point in this connection is that Lord Govinda, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is described here as tīrtha-pāda. Tīrtha means \"sanctified place,\" and pāda means \"the lotus feet of the Lord.\" People go to a sanctified place to free themselves from all sinful reactions. In other words, those who are devoted to the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, automatically become sanctified. The Lord's lotus feet are called tīrtha-pāda because under their protection there are hundreds and thousands of saintly persons who sanctify the sacred places of pilgrimage. Śrīla Narottamadāsa Ṭhākur, a great ācārya of the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava Sampradāya, advises us not to travel to different places of pilgrimage. Undoubtedly, it is troublesome to go from one place to another, but one who is intelligent can take shelter of the lotus feet of Govinda and thereby be automatically sanctified as the result of his pilgrimage. Anyone who is fixed in the service of the lotus feet of Govinda is called tīrtha-pāda; he does not need to travel on various pilgrimages, for he can enjoy all the benefits of such travel simply by engaging in the service of the lotus feet of the Lord. Such a pure devotee who has implicit faith in the lotus feet of the Lord can create sacred places in any part of the world where he decides to remain. Tīrthīkurvanti tīrthāni (Bhāg. 1.13.10). The places are sanctified due to the presence of pure devotees; any place automatically becomes a place of pilgrimage if either the Lord or His pure devotee remains or resides there. In other words, such a pure devotee, who is engaged one hundred percent in the service of the Lord, can remain anywhere in the universe, and that part of the universe immediately becomes a sacred place where he can peacefully render service to the Lord as the Lord desires." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/06/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/06/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..fc7fcb86 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/06/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,91 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 4.6.26", + "devanagari": "ययोस्तत्स्नानविभ्रष्ट नवकुंकुमपिंजरम्\nवितृषो ऽपि पिबन्त्य् अम्भः पाययन्तो गजा गजीः", + "transliteration": "yayos tat-snāna-vibhraṣṭa-\nnava-kuṅkuma-piñjaram\nvitṛṣo 'pi pibanty ambhaḥ\npāyayanto gajā gajīḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in both of which rivers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-snāna", + "meanings": [ + "by the bathing of them (the damsels of the heavenly planets)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhraṣṭa", + "meanings": [ + "fallen off" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nava", + "meanings": [ + "fresh" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuṅkuma", + "meanings": [ + "with kuṅkuma powder" + ] + }, + { + "word": "piñjaram", + "meanings": [ + "yellow" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vitṛṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "not being thirsty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pibanti", + "meanings": [ + "drink" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ambhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāyayantaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "causing to drink" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gajāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the elephants" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gajīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the female elephants." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After the damsels of the heavenly planets bathe in the water, it becomes yellowish and fragrant due to the kuṅkuma from their bodies.

In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, First Canto, Second Chapter, it is stated that everyone should try to understand whether the Supreme Personality of Godhead is satisfied by his activity. In other words, the aim of our activities should be to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Just as in an office it is the duty of the worker to see that the proprietor or the master is satisfied, so everyone's duty is to see whether the Supreme Personality of Godhead is satisfied by one's activity. Activities to satisfy the Supreme Godhead are prescribed in the Vedic literature, and execution of such activities is called yajña. In other words, acting on behalf of the Supreme Lord is called yajña. One should know very well that any activity besides yajña is the cause of material bondage. That is explained in Bhagavad-gītā, Third Chapter, ninth verse: yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ. Karma-bandhanaḥ means that if we do not work for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord, Viṣṇu, then the reaction of our work will bind us. One should not work for his own sense gratification. Everyone should work for the satisfaction of God. That is called yajña.", + "After the yajña was performed by Dakṣa, all the demigods expected prasādam, the remnants of foodstuffs offered to Viṣṇu. Lord Śiva is one of the demigods, so naturally he also expected his share of the prasādam from the yajña. But Dakṣa, out of his envy for Lord Śiva, did not invite Śiva to participate in the yajña, nor did he give him his share after the offering. But after the destruction of the yajña arena by the followers of Lord Śiva, Lord Brahmā pacified him and assured him that he would get his share of prasādam. Thus he was requested to rectify whatever destruction was caused by his followers.", + "In Bhagavad-gītā, Third Chapter, eleventh verse, it is said that all the demigods are satisfied when one performs yajña. Because the demigods expect prasādam from yajñas, yajña must be performed. Those who engage in sense gratificatory materialistic activities must perform yajña, otherwise they will be implicated. Thus Dakṣa, being the father of mankind, was performing yajña, and Lord Śiva expected his share. But since he was not invited, there was trouble. By the mediation of Lord Brahmā, however, everything was settled satisfactorily.", + "The performance of yajña is a very difficult task because all the demigods must be invited to participate in the yajña. In this Kali-yuga it is not possible to perform such costly sacrifices, nor is it possible to invite the demigods to participate. Therefore in this age it is recommended, yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi sumedhasaḥ (Bhāg. 11.5.32). Those who are intelligent should know that in the Kali-yuga there is no possibility of performing the Vedic sacrifices. But unless one pleases the demigods, there will be no regulated seasonal activities or rainfall. Everything is controlled by the demigods. Under the circumstances, in this age, in order to keep the balance of social peace and prosperity, all intelligent men should execute the performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña by chanting the holy names Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. One should invite people, chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, and then distribute prasādam. This yajña will satisfy all the demigods, and thus there will be peace and prosperity in the world. Another difficulty in performing the Vedic rituals is that if one fails to satisfy even one demigod out of the many hundreds of thousands of demigods, just as Dakṣa failed to satisfy Lord Śiva, there will be disaster. But in this age the performance of sacrifice has been simplified. One can chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, and by pleasing Kṛṣṇa one can satisfy all the demigods automatically." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1745d767 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 4.7.1", + "devanagari": "मैत्रेय उवाच\nइत्य् अजेनानुनीतेन भवेन परितुष्यता\nअभ्यधायि महाबाहो प्रहस्य श्रूयताम् इति", + "transliteration": "maitreya uvāca\nity ajenānunītena\nbhavena parituṣyatā\nabhyadhāyi mahābāho\nprahasya śrūyatām iti", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "maitreyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Maitreya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajena", + "meanings": [ + "by Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anunītena", + "meanings": [ + "pacified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavena", + "meanings": [ + "by Lord Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parituṣyatā", + "meanings": [ + "fully satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhyadhāyi", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahābāho", + "meanings": [ + "O Vidura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prahasya", + "meanings": [ + "smiling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrūyatām", + "meanings": [ + "listen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The sage Maitreya said: O mighty-armed Vidura, Lord Śiva, being thus pacified by the words of Lord Brahmā, spoke as follows in answer to the request of Lord Brahmā.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1370ed10 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 4.7.2", + "devanagari": "महादेव उवाच\nनाघं प्रजेश बालानां वर्णये नानुचिन्तये\nदेवमायाभिभूतानां दण्डस्तत्र धृतो मया", + "transliteration": "mahādeva uvāca\nnāghaṁ prajeśa bālānāṁ\nvarṇaye nānucintaye\ndeva-māyābhibhūtānāṁ\ndaṇḍas tatra dhṛto mayā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "mahādevaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agham", + "meanings": [ + "offense" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajeśa", + "meanings": [ + "O lord of created beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bālānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the children" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṇaye", + "meanings": [ + "I regard" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anucintaye", + "meanings": [ + "I consider" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deva-māyā", + "meanings": [ + "the external energy of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhibhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of those deluded by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daṇḍaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "rod" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "used" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mayā", + "meanings": [ + "by me." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Śiva said: My dear father, Brahmā, I do not mind the offenses created by the demigods.

The brain substance of Dakṣa and that of a goat are different, but Dakṣa still acted like himself, even though his head was replaced by that of a goat. The conclusion is that it is the particular consciousness of an individual soul which acts. The brain substance is only an instrument which has nothing to do with real intelligence. The real intelligence, mind and consciousness are part of the particular individual soul. It will be found in the verses ahead that after Dakṣa's head was replaced by the goat's head, he was as intelligent as he had previously been. He prayed very nicely to satisfy Lord Śiva and Lord Viṣṇu, which is not possible for a goat to do. Therefore it is definitely concluded that the brain substance is not the center of intelligence; it is the consciousness of a particular soul that works intelligently. The whole movement of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is to purify the consciousness. It doesn't matter what kind of brain one has because if he simply transfers his consciousness from matter to Kṛṣṇa, his life becomes successful. It is confirmed by the Lord Himself in Bhagavad-gītā that anyone who takes up Kṛṣṇa consciousness achieves the highest perfection of life, regardless of whatever abominable condition of life he may have fallen into.

Sanātana had a touchstone with him, which he kept with the garbage. On the request of the poor brāhmaṇa, Sanātana Gosvāmī gave him the touchstone, and the brāhmaṇa was very happy to have it. He now could get as much gold as he desired simply by touching the touchstone to iron. But after he left Sanātana, he thought, \"If a touchstone is the best benediction, why has Sanātana Gosvāmī kept it with the garbage?\" He therefore returned and asked Sanātana Gosvāmī, \"Sir, if this is the best benediction, why did you keep it with the garbage?\" Sanātana Gosvāmī then informed him, \"Actually, this is not the best benediction. But are you prepared to take the best benediction from me?\" The brāhmaṇa said, \"Yes, sir. Lord Śiva has sent me to you for the best benediction.\" Then Sanātana Gosvāmī asked him to throw the touchstone in the water nearby and then come back. The poor brāhmaṇa did so, and when he returned, Sanātana Gosvāmī initiated him with the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra.

Thus bodily construction has nothing to do with the development of consciousness. Consciousness is carried with the transmigration of the soul. There are many instances of this in Vedic history, such as the case of Mahārāja Bharata. After quitting his body as a king, Mahārāja Bharata was transferred to the body of a deer, but he retained the same consciousness. He knew that although formerly he was King Bharata, he had been transferred to the body of a deer because of his absorption in thinking of a deer at the time of his death. In spite of his having the body of a deer, however, his consciousness was as good as it was in the body of King Bharata.

He remembered that Lord Śiva and Lord Viṣṇu are never neglectful of the brāhmaṇas, even though they are sometimes unqualified.

Aśvatthāmā was the son of a great brāhmaṇa, Droṇācārya, and in spite of his committing the great offense of killing all the sleeping sons of the Pāṇḍavas, for which he was condemned even by Lord Kṛṣṇa, Arjuna excused him by not killing him because he happened to be the son of a brāhmaṇa.

Such a person is not a brāhmaṇa but is a brahma-bandhu. Dakṣa proved himself to be a brahma-bandhu.

Lord Śiva and Lord Viṣṇu, however, are affectionate even to an imperfect brāhmaṇa. Lord Śiva punished Dakṣa not as one does his enemy, but he punished him just to bring him to his senses, so that he would know that he had done wrong. Dakṣa could understand this, and he acknowledged the great mercy of Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Śiva towards the fallen brāhmaṇas, including even himself.

Lord Śiva's punishment was just like that of a cowherd boy, who keeps a stick to frighten his animals. It is commonly said that to give protection to animals, a stick is needed because animals cannot reason and argue. Their reasoning and argument is argumentum ad baculum; unless there is a rod, they do not obey. Force is required for the animalistic class of men, whereas those who are advanced are convinced by reasons, arguments and scriptural authority. Persons who are simply attached to Vedic rituals, without further advancement of devotional service or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, are almost like animals, and Lord Śiva is in charge of giving them protection and sometimes punishing them, as he punished Dakṣa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/15.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/15.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ddd8fb47 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/15.json @@ -0,0 +1,153 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 15, + "reference": "SB 4.7.15", + "devanagari": "यो ऽसौ मयाविदिततत्त्वदृशा सभायां क्षिप्तो दुरुक्तिविशिखैर्विगणय्य तन्माम्\nअर्वाक्पतन्तम् अर्हत्तमनिन्दयापाद्दृष्ट्यार्द्रया स भगवान्स्वकृतेन तुष्येत्", + "transliteration": "yo 'sau mayāvidita-tattva-dṛśā sabhāyāṁ\nkṣipto durukti-viśikhair vigaṇayya tan mām\narvāk patantam arhattama-nindayāpād\ndṛṣṭyārdrayā sa bhagavān sva-kṛtena tuṣyet", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mayā", + "meanings": [ + "by me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avidita-tattva", + "meanings": [ + "without knowing the actual fact" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛśā", + "meanings": [ + "by experience" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sabhāyām", + "meanings": [ + "in the assembly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣiptaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "was abused" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durukti", + "meanings": [ + "unkind words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśikhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the arrows of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vigaṇayya", + "meanings": [ + "taking no notice of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arvāk", + "meanings": [ + "downwards" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patantam", + "meanings": [ + "gliding down to hell" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arhattama", + "meanings": [ + "the most respectable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nindayā", + "meanings": [ + "by defamation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apāt", + "meanings": [ + "saved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dṛṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārdrayā", + "meanings": [ + "out of compassion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "Your Lordship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-kṛtena", + "meanings": [ + "by your own mercy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tuṣyet", + "meanings": [ + "be satisfied." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "I did not know your full glories.

Factually, the insulting words used by Dakṣa against Lord Śiva were enough to have him thrown perpetually into a hellish life.

King Dakṣa realized this, and, feeling obliged for Lord Śiva's magnanimous behavior, he wanted to show his gratitude to him. Sometimes a father punishes his child, and when the child is grown up and comes to his senses, he understands that the father's punishment was not actually punishment but mercy. Similarly, Dakṣa appreciated that the punishment offered to him by Lord Śiva was a manifestation of his mercy. That is the symptom of a person making progress on the path of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. It is said that a devotee in Kṛṣṇa consciousness never takes any miserable condition of life to be condemnation by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He accepts the miserable condition to be the grace of the Lord. He thinks, \"I would have been punished or put into a more dangerous condition of life due to my past misdeeds, but the Lord has protected me. Thus I have received only a little punishment as token execution of the law of karma.\" Thinking of His grace in that way, a devotee always surrenders to the Supreme Personality of Godhead more and more seriously and is not disturbed by such so-called punishment." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..212a75df --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,109 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 4.7.16", + "devanagari": "मैत्रेय उवाच\nक्षमाप्यैवं स मीढ्वांसं ब्रह्मणा चानुमन्त्रितः\nकर्म सन्तानयामास सोपाध्यायर्त्विगादिभिः", + "transliteration": "maitreya uvāca\nkṣamāpyaivaṁ sa mīḍhvāṁsaṁ\nbrahmaṇā cānumantritaḥ\nkarma santānayāmāsa\nsopādhyāyartvig-ādibhiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "maitreyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sage Maitreya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣamā", + "meanings": [ + "forgiveness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpya", + "meanings": [ + "receiving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "King Dakṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mīḍhvāṁsam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Lord Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahmaṇā", + "meanings": [ + "along with Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anumantritaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being permitted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karma", + "meanings": [ + "the sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "santānayāmāsa", + "meanings": [ + "began again" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa", + "meanings": [ + "along with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upādhyāya", + "meanings": [ + "learned sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛtvik", + "meanings": [ + "the priests" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and others." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The great sage Maitreya said: Thus being pardoned by Lord Śiva, King Dakṣa, with the permission of Lord Brahmā, again began the performance of the yajña, along with the great learned sages, the priests and others.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d70f7348 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 4.7.17", + "devanagari": "वैष्णवं यज्ञसन्तत्यै त्रिकपालं द्विजोत्तमाः\nपुरोडाशं निरवपन्वीरसंसर्गशुद्धये", + "transliteration": "vaiṣṇavaṁ yajña-santatyai\ntrikapālaṁ dvijottamāḥ\npuroḍāśaṁ niravapan\nvīra-saṁsarga-śuddhaye", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vaiṣṇavam", + "meanings": [ + "meant for Lord Viṣṇu or His devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajña", + "meanings": [ + "sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "santatyai", + "meanings": [ + "for performances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "trikapālam", + "meanings": [ + "three kinds of offerings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvija-uttamāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the best of the brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puroḍāśam", + "meanings": [ + "the oblation called puroḍāśa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niravapan", + "meanings": [ + "offered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vīra", + "meanings": [ + "Vīrabhadra and other followers of Lord Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsarga", + "meanings": [ + "contamination (doṣa) due to his touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuddhaye", + "meanings": [ + "for purification." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter, in order to resume the activities of sacrifice, the brāhmaṇas first of all arranged for purification of the contamination caused by the touch of Vīrabhadra and other ghostly followers of Lord Śiva.

Not only did they pollute the entire sacrificial arena by their very presence, but they disturbed the whole situation by passing stool and urine. Therefore, the infection they had created was to be first purified by the method of offering puroḍāśa oblations. A Viṣṇu yajña, or an offering to Lord Viṣṇu, cannot be performed uncleanly. To offer anything in an unclean state is called a sevāparādha. The the Viṣṇu Deity worship in the temple is also Viṣṇu-yajña. In all Viṣṇu temples, therefore, the priest who takes care of the arcanā-vidhi must be very clean. Everything should be always kept neat and clean, and the foodstuffs should be prepared in a neat and clean manner. All these regulative principles are described in The Nectar of Devotion. There are thirty-two kinds of offenses in discharging arcanā service. It is required, therefore, that one be extremely careful not to be unclean. Generally, whenever any ritualistic ceremony is begun, the holy name of Lord Viṣṇu is first chanted in order to purify the situation. Whether one is in a pure or impure condition, internally or externally, if one chants or even remembers the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead Viṣṇu, he immediately becomes purified. The yajña arena was desecrated by the presence of Lord Śiva's followers, headed by Vīrabhadra, and therefore the entire arena had to be sanctified. Although Lord Śiva was present and he is all-auspicious, it was still necessary to sanctify the place because his followers had broken into the arena and committed so many obnoxious acts. That sanctification was possible only by chanting the holy name of Viṣṇu, Trikapāla, which can sanctify the three worlds. In other words, it is admitted herein that the followers of Lord Śiva are generally unclean. They are not even very hygienic; they do not take baths regularly, they wear long hair, and they smoke gāñjā. Persons of such irregular habits are counted amongst the ghosts. Since they were present in the sacrificial arena, the atmosphere became polluted, and it had to be sanctified by trikapāla oblations which indicated the invocation of Viṣṇu's favor." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3cdc0e42 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 4.7.18", + "devanagari": "अध्वर्युणात्तहविषा यजमानो विशाम्पते\nधिया विशुद्धया दध्यौ तथा प्रादुर् अभूद्द्हरिः", + "transliteration": "adhvaryuṇātta-haviṣā\nyajamāno viśām-pate\ndhiyā viśuddhayā dadhyau\ntathā prādur abhūdd hariḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "adhvaryuṇā", + "meanings": [ + "with the Yajur-veda" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātta", + "meanings": [ + "taking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haviṣā", + "meanings": [ + "with clarified butter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "King Dakṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśām-pate", + "meanings": [ + "O Vidura" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiyā", + "meanings": [ + "in meditation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśuddhayā", + "meanings": [ + "sanctified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadhyau", + "meanings": [ + "offered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "immediately" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāduḥ", + "meanings": [ + "manifest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhūt", + "meanings": [ + "became" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hariḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Hari, the Lord." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The great sage Maitreya said to Vidura: My dear Vidura, as soon as King Dakṣa offered the clarified butter with Yajur-veda mantras in sanctified meditation, Lord Viṣṇu appeared there in His original form as Nārāyaṇa.", + "purport": [ + "Lord Viṣṇu is all-pervading.

This capacity is increased by the service spirit. Sevonmukhe hi jihvādau means that the service of the Lord begins with the tongue. This refers to chanting. By chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, one begins the service of the Lord. Another function of the tongue is to taste and accept the Lord's prasādam. We have to begin our service to the Unlimited with the tongue and become perfect in chanting and accepting the Lord's prasādam. To accept the Lord's prasādam means to control the entire set of senses. The tongue is considered to be the most uncontrollable sense because it hankers for so many unwholesome eatables, thereby forcing the living entity into the dungeon of material conditional life. As the living entity transmigrates from one form of life to another, he has to eat so many abominable foodstuffs that finally there is no limit. The tongue should be engaged in chanting and in eating the Lord's prasādam so that the other senses will be controlled. Chanting is the medicine, and prasādam is the diet. With these processes one can begin his service, and as the service increases, the Lord reveals more and more to the devotee.

One should therefore always be fixed in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, busy in the transcendental loving service of the Lord.

Avyakta, or the original material cause, is beyond this material manifestation and is the cause of the material world. Because Nārāyaṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is beyond the material world, one cannot speculate upon Him by any material method. One has to understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead simply by the transcendental method of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (Bg. 18.55). Bhaktyā mām abhijānāti: Only by devotional service can one understand the transcendental form of the Lord. That is the difference between the impersonalists and the personalists. The impersonalists, limited by their speculative processes, cannot even approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead, whereas the devotees please the Supreme Personality of Godhead through His transcendental loving service. Sevonmukhe hi: Due to the service attitude of the devotee, the Lord is revealed to him. The Supreme Lord cannot be understood by materialistic persons even though He is present before them. In Bhagavad-gītā, Lord Kṛṣṇa therefore condemns such materialists as mūḍhas. Mūḍha means rascal. It is said in the Gītā, \"Only rascals think of Lord Kṛṣṇa as an ordinary person. They do not know what Lord Kṛṣṇa's position is or what His transcendental potencies are.\" Unaware of His transcendental potencies, the impersonalists deride the person of Lord Kṛṣṇa, whereas the devotees, by dint of their service attitude, can understand Him as the Personality of Godhead.

In reply to that statement by Brahmā, King Indra here says that even though the transcendental form of the Lord is not perceivable by the material senses, His activities and His transcendental form can be understood. The Lord's uncommon features, uncommon activities and uncommon beauty can be perceived even by an ordinary man. For example, when Lord Kṛṣṇa appeared just like a six-or seven-year-old boy in Vṛndāvana, He was approached by the residents there. There were torrents of rain, and the Lord saved the residents of Vṛndāvana by lifting Govardhana Hill and resting it on the little finger of His left hand for seven days. This uncommon feature of the Lord should convince even materialistic persons who want to speculate to the limit of their material senses. The activities of the Lord are pleasing to experimental vision also, but impersonalists will not believe in His identity because they study the personality of the Lord by comparing their personality to His. Because men in this material world cannot lift a hill, they therefore do not believe that the Lord can lift one. They accept the statements of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam to be allegorical, and they try to interpret them in their own way. But factually the Lord lifted the hill in the presence of all the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana, as corroborated by great ācāryas and authors like Vyāsadeva and Nārada. Everything about the Lord—His activities, pastimes and uncommon features—should be accepted as is, and in this way, even in our present condition, we can understand the Lord.

In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that all activities should be performed as Viṣṇu yajña, for the pleasure of Lord Viṣṇu. Unless we please Him, whatever we do is the cause of our bondage in the material world. This is confirmed herein by the wife of Dakṣa: \"Without Your presence, the grandeur of this sacrificial ceremony is useless, just as a body without the head, however decorated it may be, is useless.\" The comparison is equally applicable to the social body. Material civilization is very proud of being advanced, but it is actually the useless trunk of a body without a head. Without Kṛṣṇa consciousness, without an understanding of Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, any advancement in a civilization, no matter how sophisticated, is of no value. There is a statement in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam: bhagavad-bhakti-hīnasya jātiḥ śāstraṁ japas tapaḥ aprāṇasyaiva dehasya maṇḍanaṁ loka-rañjanam. The purport is that sometimes when a friend or relative dies, especially among lower class men, the dead body is decorated. Dressed and ornamented, the body is taken in procession. That sort of decoration of the dead body has no actual value because the life force is already gone. Similarly, any aristocracy, any social prestige or any advancement of material civilization without Kṛṣṇa consciousness is as good as the decoration of a dead body. The name of the wife of Dakṣa was Prasūti, and she was the daughter of Svāyambhuva Manu. Her sister, Devahūti, was married to Kardama Muni, and Kapiladeva, the Personality of Godhead, became her son. Prasūti, then, was the aunt of Lord Viṣṇu. She was asking the favor of Lord Viṣṇu in an affectionate mode; since she was His aunt, she sought some special favor. Also significant in this verse is that the Lord is praised with the goddess of fortune. Wherever Lord Viṣṇu is worshiped, naturally there is the favor of the goddess of fortune. Lord Viṣṇu is addressed as amṛta, transcendental. The demigods, including Brahmā and Lord Śiva, were produced after the creation, but Lord Viṣṇu existed before the creation. He is addressed, therefore, as amṛta. Lord Viṣṇu is worshiped with His internal energy by the Vaiṣṇavas.

In the external energy, the interaction of the three qualities makes it possible for things to be created, maintained and annihilated. But in the spiritual world, or the kingdom of God, there is no such exhibition, since everything is eternal, sentient and blissful. There is a class of philosophers who misunderstand the appearance of the Personality of Godhead within this material world. They are under the impression that when the Supreme Personality of Godhead appears, He is under the spell of the three qualities, like all the other living entities who appear within this material world. That is their misunderstanding; as it is clearly stated here (svasaṁsthayā), by His internal potency He is transcendental to all these material qualities. Similarly, in Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says, \"I appear by My internal potency.\" Both the internal and external potencies are under the control of the Supreme, so He does not come under the control of either of these potencies. Rather, everything is under His control. In order to manifest His transcendental name, form, quality, pastimes and paraphernalia, He brings into action His internal energy. On account of the variegatedness of the external potency, there are manifestations of many qualitative demigods, beginning with Brahmā and Lord Śiva, and people are attracted to these demigods according to their own material quality. But when one is transcendental or surpasses the material qualities, he is simply fixed in the worship of the Supreme Personality. This fact is explained in Bhagavad-gītā: Anyone engaged in the service of the Lord is already transcendental to the variegatedness and interaction of the three material qualities. The summary is that the conditioned souls are being pulled on by the action and reaction of the material qualities, which create a differentiation of energies. But in the spiritual world the worshipable one is the Supreme Lord and no one else." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..446865bd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 4.7.40", + "devanagari": "ब्रह्मोवाच\nनमस्ते श्रितसत्त्वाय धर्मादीनां च सूतये\nनिर्गुणाय च यत्काष्ठां नाहं वेदापरे ऽपि च", + "transliteration": "brahmovāca\nnamas te śrita-sattvāya\ndharmādīnāṁ ca sūtaye\nnirguṇāya ca yat kāṣṭhāṁ\nnāhaṁ vedāpare 'pi ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "the personified Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "respectful obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrita-sattvāya", + "meanings": [ + "the shelter of the quality of goodness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharma-ādīnām", + "meanings": [ + "of all religion, austerity and penance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sūtaye", + "meanings": [ + "the source" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirguṇāya", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental to material qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "of whom (of the Supreme Lord)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāṣṭhām", + "meanings": [ + "the situation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda", + "meanings": [ + "know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apare", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The personified Vedas said: We offer our respectful obeisances unto You, the Lord, the shelter of the quality of goodness and therefore the source of all religion, austerity and penance, for You are nevertheless transcendental to all material qualities, and no one knows You or Your actual situation.", + "purport": [ + "In the material world there is the trinity of the three material qualities.

As soon as they are subjected to the control of the other two qualities, namely passion and ignorance, their precarious conditional life becomes intolerable. But Lord Viṣṇu, in His original position, is always nirguṇa, which means transcendental to these material qualities. Guṇa means quality, and nir means negation. This does not indicate, however, that He has no qualities; He has transcendental qualities by which He appears and manifests His pastimes. The positive transcendental qualitative manifestation is unknown to the students of the Vedas as well as to the great stalwart demigods like Brahmā and Śiva. Actually, the transcendental qualities are manifested only to the devotees. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, simply by discharging devotional service one can understand the transcendental position of the Supreme Lord. Those who are in the mode of goodness can partially enter into the transcendental understanding, but it is advised in Bhagavad-gītā that one has to surpass this. The Vedic principles are based on the three qualities of the material modes.

All other actions which a person may take are only causes for his bondage. Everyone has to perform yajña according to the Vedic hymns. As stated in the Veda Upaniṣad, fire, the altar, the auspicious full moon, the period of four months called Cāturmāsya, the sacrificial animal and the beverage called soma are necessary requisites, as are the specific hymns mentioned in the Vedas and composed of four letters. One hymn is as follows: āśrāvayeti catur-akṣaraṁ astu śrauṣaḍ iti catur-akṣaraṁ yajeti dvābhyāṁ ye yajāmahaḥ. These mantras, chanted according to the śruti and smṛti literatures, are only to please Lord Viṣṇu. For the deliverance of those who are materially conditioned and attached to material enjoyment, performing yajña and following the rules and regulations of the four divisions of society and of spiritual life are recommended. It is said in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa that by offering sacrifice to Viṣṇu one can gradually be liberated. The whole target of life, therefore, is to please Lord Viṣṇu. That is yajña. Any person who is in Kṛṣṇa consciousness has dedicated his life for the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa, the origin of all Viṣṇu forms, and by offering worship and prasādam daily, he becomes the best performer of yajña. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is clearly stated that in this age of Kali the only successful performance of yajña or sacrifice is yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyaiḥ; the best type of sacrifice is simply to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. This yajña is performed before the form of Lord Caitanya, as other yajñas are performed before the form of Lord Viṣṇu. These recommendations are found in the Eleventh Canto of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Moreover, this yajña performance confirms that Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Viṣṇu Himself.

In fact, anyone can think that he is God. That is the false, puffed-up conviction of material life. Actually Viṣṇu is the Supreme Lord, but there is even one above Viṣṇu, for Viṣṇu is also the plenary portion of a part of Kṛṣṇa. In this verse this is referred to by the word aṁśāṁśāḥ, which means part and parcel of a part and parcel. There are similar verses in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta which indicate that the Supreme Lord's parts and parcels again expand into other parts and parcels. As described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, there are many manifestations of Viṣṇu and many manifestations of living entities. Viṣṇu manifestations are called svāṁśa, partial manifestations, and the living entities are called vibhinnāṁśa. The demigods like Brahmā and Indra have been promoted to such exalted positions by pious activities and austerities, but actually Viṣṇu, or Kṛṣṇa, is the master of everyone. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said, ekale īśvara kṛṣṇa, āra saba bhṛtya. This means that Kṛṣṇa alone is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and all others, even the viṣṇu-tattva and certainly the living entities, are His servitors. Baladeva is the immediate expansion of Kṛṣṇa. He also engages in the service of Kṛṣṇa, and certainly the ordinary living entities are serving. Everyone is created, constitutionally, for serving Kṛṣṇa. Here the Gandharvas acknowledge that although the demigods may represent themselves as the Supreme, actually they are not supreme. Real supremacy belongs to Kṛṣṇa.

Bhagavad-gītā is the instruction given by Kṛṣṇa, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the book containing topics exclusively about Kṛṣṇa and His devotees. These two books are the special nectar of the words of Kṛṣṇa. For those who engage in the preaching of these two Vedic literatures it is very easy to get out of the illusory conditional life imposed upon us by māyā. The illusion is that the conditioned soul does not try to understand his spiritual identity. He is more interested in his external body, which is only a flash and which will be finished as soon as the time is designated. The whole atmosphere will change when the living entity has to transmigrate from one body to another. Under the spell of māyā, he will again be satisfied in a different atmosphere. This spell of māyā is called āvaraṇātmika-śakti because it is so strong that the living entity is satisfied in any abominable condition. Even if he is born as a worm living within the intestine or abdomen in the midst of urine and stool, still he is satisfied. This is the covering influence of māyā. But the human form of life is a chance to understand, and if one misses this opportunity, he is most unfortunate. The way to get out of illusory māyā is to engage in the topics of Kṛṣṇa. Lord Caitanya advocated a process whereby everyone may remain in his present position without change but simply hear from the proper authoritative sources about Kṛṣṇa. Lord Caitanya advised everyone to spread the word of Kṛṣṇa. He advised, \"All of you become spiritual masters. Your duty is simply to talk to whomever you meet of Kṛṣṇa or of the instructions given by Kṛṣṇa.\" The International Society for Krishna Consciousness is operating for this purpose: we do not ask anyone to first change his position and then come to us; we invite everyone to come with us and simply chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, because we know that if one simply chants and hears the topics of Kṛṣṇa, one's life will change; he will see a new light, and his life will be successful." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/45.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/45.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6fc69b55 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/07/verses/45.json @@ -0,0 +1,159 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 45, + "reference": "SB 4.7.45", + "devanagari": "ब्राह्मणा ऊचुः\nत्वं क्रतुस्त्वं हविस्त्वं हुताशः स्वयं त्वं हि मन्त्रः समिद्दर्भपात्राणि च\nत्वं सदस्यर्त्विजो दम्पती देवता अग्निहोत्रं स्वधा सोम आज्यं पशुः", + "transliteration": "brāhmaṇā ūcuḥ\ntvaṁ kratus tvaṁ havis tvaṁ hutāśaḥ svayaṁ\ntvaṁ hi mantraḥ samid-darbha-pātrāṇi ca\ntvaṁ sadasyartvijo dampatī devatā\nagnihotraṁ svadhā soma ājyaṁ paśuḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "brāhmaṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ūcuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kratuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haviḥ", + "meanings": [ + "offering of clarified butter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "huta-āśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "personified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "for" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mantraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Vedic hymns" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samit-darbha-pātrāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "the fuel, the kuśa grass and the sacrificial pots" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadasya", + "meanings": [ + "the members of the assembly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛtvijaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the priests" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dampatī", + "meanings": [ + "the chief person of the sacrifice and his wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devatā", + "meanings": [ + "demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agnihotram", + "meanings": [ + "the sacred fire ceremony" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svadhā", + "meanings": [ + "the offering to the forefathers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "somaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the soma plant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ājyam", + "meanings": [ + "the clarified butter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sacrificial animal." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The brāhmaṇas said: Dear Lord, You are sacrifice personified, You are the offering of clarified butter, You are the fire, You are the chanting of Vedic hymns by which the sacrifice is conducted, You are the fuel, You are the flame, You are the kuśa grass, You are the sacrificial pots, You are the priests who perform the yajña, You are the demigods headed by Indra, and You are the sacrificial animal.

The brāhmaṇas' statement is that Lord Viṣṇu is everything—the fire, the offering, the clarified butter, the utensils, the place of sacrifice and the kuśa. He is everything. It is confirmed herein that the performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña in this age is as good as all other yajñas in all other ages. If one performs saṅkīrtana-yajña by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, there is no need to arrange elaborate paraphernalia for the prescribed sacrificial ceremonies recommended in the Vedas. In the chant of the holy names, Hare and Kṛṣṇa, Hare means the energy of Kṛṣṇa, and Kṛṣṇa is the viṣṇu-tattva. Combined together they are everything. In this age, persons are harassed by the influence of Kali-yuga and cannot arrange for all the requisite paraphernalia for performing sacrifice as recommended in the Vedas. But if one simply chants Hare Kṛṣṇa, it is to be understood that he is performing all kinds of yajña because there is nothing within our vision except Hare, the energy of Kṛṣṇa and Kṛṣṇa. There is no difference between Kṛṣṇa and His energies. Thus since everything is a manifestation of His energy, it is to be understood that everything is Kṛṣṇa. One simply has to accept everything in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and he is a liberated person. He should not misunderstand that because everything is Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa has no personal identity. Kṛṣṇa is so full that in spite of keeping Himself separate from everything by His energy, He is everything. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, Ninth Chapter. He is spread throughout the creation as everything, but still He is not everything.

And in the Upaniṣads is the statement, yato vā imāni bhūtāni jāyante. Everything is generated from Lord Viṣṇu, everything is maintained by Him, and everything is annihilated by His energy. Therefore, by their actions and reactions, the energies which come from Him create the cosmic manifestations, and they also dissolve the whole creation.

Yogīs can thus perform all kinds of austerity with steadiness and be elevated to the highest perfectional stage, even to the spiritual world.

That they did not live at home means that they did not accept a wife, and so there was no question of their discharging semina. Semina is meant to be discharged when one has a home, a wife and the intention to beget children, otherwise there is no injunction for discharging semina. These principles were followed from the beginning of creation, and such brahmacārīs never created progeny. This narration has dealt with the descendants of Lord Brahmā from Manu's daughter Prasūti.

This was also instructed by the Lord Himself to Arjuna in Bhagavad-gītā: \"Go on fighting, but keep Me within your mind.\" That should be the motto of every honest person seeking perfection in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. In this connection, Queen Sunīti advised her son that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is known as bhṛtya-vatsala, which indicates that He is very kind to His devotees. She said, \"You came to me crying, having been insulted by your stepmother, but I am unable to do any good for you. But Kṛṣṇa is so kind to His devotees that if you go to Him, then the combined kindness of millions of mothers like me would be surpassed by His affectionate and tender dealings. When everyone else fails to mitigate one's misery, Kṛṣṇa is able to help the devotee.\" Queen Sunīti also stressed that the process of approaching the Supreme Personality of Godhead is not easy, but is sought after by great sages who are very advanced in spiritual realization. Queen Sunīti also indicated by her instruction that Dhruva Mahārāja was only a small child, five years old, and it was not possible for him to purify himself by the way of karma-kāṇḍa.

Dhruva Mahārāja, having already been trained in the kṣatriya spirit, would not accept the brahminical philosophy. We have practical experience of this incompatibility of the brahminical and kṣatriya temperaments in America. The American boys, who have simply been trained as śūdras, are not at all fit to fight in battle. Therefore, when they are called to join the military, they refuse because they do not have kṣatriya spirit. This is a cause of great dissatisfaction in society.", + "That the boys do not have the kṣatriya spirit does not mean that they are trained in brahminical qualities; they are trained as śūdras, and thus in frustration they are becoming hippies. However, as soon as they enter the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement which is being started in America, they are trained to meet the brahminical qualifications, even though they have fallen to the lowest conditions as śūdras. In other words, since the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is open for everyone, people in general can attain the brahminical qualifications. This is the greatest need at the present moment, for now there are actually no brāhmaṇas or kṣatriyas but only some vaiśyas and, for the most part, śūdras. The classification of society into brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras is very scientific. In the human social body, the brāhmaṇas are considered the head, the kṣatriyas are the arms, the vaiśyas are the belly, and the śūdras are the legs. At the present moment the body has legs and a belly, but there are no arms or head, and therefore society is topsy-turvy.

The chanter, therefore, has to concentrate on hearing the vibration, and without extra endeavor on his part, the Lord will automatically appear." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/54.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/54.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c6936eca --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/54.json @@ -0,0 +1,114 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 54, + "reference": "SB 4.8.54", + "devanagari": "ॐ नमो भगवते वासुदेवाय\nमन्त्रेणानेन देवस्य कुर्याद्द्रव्यमयीं बुधः\nसपर्यां विविधैर्द्रव्यैर्देशकालविभागवित्", + "transliteration": "oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya\nmantreṇānena devasya\nkuryād dravyamayīṁ budhaḥ\nsaparyāṁ vividhair dravyair\ndeśa-kāla-vibhāgavit", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "om", + "meanings": [ + "O my Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "I offer my respectful obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavate", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsudevāya", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supreme Lord Vāsudeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mantreṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by this hymn or mantra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anena", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuryāt", + "meanings": [ + "one should do" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dravyamayīm", + "meanings": [ + "physical" + ] + }, + { + "word": "budhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one who is learned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saparyām", + "meanings": [ + "worship by the prescribed method" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vividhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with varieties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dravyaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "paraphernalia" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deśa", + "meanings": [ + "according to country" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāla", + "meanings": [ + "time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhāgavit", + "meanings": [ + "one who knows the divisions." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.

This mantra is chanted by Vaiṣṇava devotees, and it begins with praṇava, or oṁkāra. There is an injunction that those who are not brāhmaṇas cannot pronounce the praṇava mantra. But Dhruva Mahārāja was born a kṣatriya. He at once admitted before Nārada Muni that as a kṣatriya he was unable to accept his instruction of renunciation and mental equilibrium, which are the concern of a brāhmaṇa. Still, although not a brāhmaṇa but a kṣatriya, Dhruva was allowed, on the authority of Nārada, to pronounce the praṇava oṁkāra. This is very significant. Especially in India, the caste brāhmaṇas object greatly when persons from other castes, who are not born in brāhmaṇa families, recite this praṇava mantra. But here is tacit proof that if a person accepts the Vaiṣṇava mantra or Vaiṣṇava way of worshiping the Deity, he is allowed to chant the praṇava mantra. In Bhagavad-gītā the Lord personally accepts that anyone, even one of a low species, can be elevated to the highest position and go back home, back to Godhead, simply if he worships properly.", + "The prescribed rules, as stated here by Nārada Muni, are that one should accept the mantra through a bona fide spiritual master and hear the mantra in the right ear. Not only should one chant or murmur the mantra, but in front of him he must have the Deity or physical form of the Lord. Of course, when the Lord appears it is no longer a physical form. For example, when an iron rod is made red-hot in a fire, it is no longer iron; it is fire. Similarly, when we make a form of the Lord—whether of wood, or stone, or metal, or jewel, or paint, or even a form within the mind—it is a bona fide, spiritual, transcendental form of the Lord. One must not only receive the mantra from the bona fide spiritual master like Nārada Muni or his representative in the disciplic succession, but one must chant the mantra. And not only must one chant, but he should also offer whatever foodstuff is available in his part of the world, according to time and convenience.", + "The method of worship—chanting the mantra and preparing the forms of the Lord—is not stereotyped, nor is it exactly the same everywhere. It is specifically mentioned in this verse that one should take consideration of the time, place and available conveniences. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is going on throughout the entire world, and we also install Deities in different centers. Sometimes our Indian friends, puffed up with concocted notions, criticize, \"This has not been done. That has not been done.\" But they forget this instruction of Nārada Muni to one of the greatest Vaiṣṇavas, Dhruva Mahārāja. One has to consider the particular time, country and conveniences. What is convenient in India may not be convenient in the Western countries. Those who are not actually in the line of ācāryas, or who personally have no knowledge of how to act in the role of ācārya, unnecessarily criticize the activities of the ISKCON movement in countries outside of India. The fact is that such critics cannot do anything personally to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness. If someone does go and preach, taking all risks and allowing all considerations for time and place, it might be that there are changes in the manner of worship, but that is not at all faulty according to śāstra. Śrīman Vīrarāghavācārya, an ācārya in the disciplic succession of the Rāmānuja Sampradāya, has remarked in his commentary that caṇḍālas, or conditioned souls who are born in lower than śūdra families, can also be initiated according to circumstances. The formalities may be slightly changed here and there to make them Vaiṣṇavas.", + "Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu recommends that His name should be heard in every nook and corner of the world. How is this possible unless one preaches everywhere? The cult of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Bhāgavata-dharma, and He especially recommends Kṛṣṇa-kathā, or the cult of Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. He recommends that every Indian, considering this task to be paropakāra, or welfare activity, take the Lord's message to other residents of the world. \"Other residents of the world\" does not refer only to those who are exactly like the Indian brāhmaṇas or kṣatriyas, or like the caste brāhmaṇas, who claim to be brāhmaṇas because they were born in the families of brāhmaṇas. The principle that only Indians and Hindus should be brought into the Vaiṣṇava cult is a mistaken idea. There should be propaganda to bring everyone to the Vaiṣṇava cult. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is meant for this purpose. There is no bar to propagating the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement even among people who are born in caṇḍāla, mleccha or yavana families. Even in India, this point has been enunciated by Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī in his book Hari-bhakti-vilāsa, which is smṛti and is the authorized Vedic guide for Vaiṣṇavas in their daily behavior. Sanātana Gosvāmī says that as bell metal can turn to gold when mixed with mercury in a chemical process, so, by the bona fide dīkṣā or initiation method, anyone can become a Vaiṣṇava. One should take initiation from a bona fide spiritual master coming in the disciplic succession, who is authorized by his predecessor spiritual master. This is called dīkṣā-vidhāna. Lord Kṛṣṇa states in Bhagavad-gītā, vyapāśritya: one should accept a spiritual master. By this process the entire world can be converted to Kṛṣṇa consciousness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/55.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/55.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..35c4bdf9 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/55.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 55, + "reference": "SB 4.8.55", + "devanagari": "सलिलैः शुचिभिर्माल्यैर्वन्यैर्मूलफलादिभिः\nशस्तांकुरांशुकैश्चार्चेत्तुलस्या प्रियया प्रभुम्", + "transliteration": "salilaiḥ śucibhir mālyair\nvanyair mūla-phalādibhiḥ\nśastāṅkurāṁśukaiś cārcet\ntulasyā priyayā prabhum", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "salilaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by use of water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śucibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being purified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mālyaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by garlands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vanyaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of forest flowers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mūla", + "meanings": [ + "roots" + ] + }, + { + "word": "phala-ādibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by different kinds of vegetables and fruits" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śasta", + "meanings": [ + "the newly grown grass" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅkura", + "meanings": [ + "buds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṁśukaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the skin of trees, such as the bhūrja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arcet", + "meanings": [ + "should worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tulasyā", + "meanings": [ + "by the tulasī leaves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyayā", + "meanings": [ + "which are very dear to the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhum", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One should worship the Lord by offering pure water, pure flower garlands, fruits, flowers and vegetables, which are available in the forest, or by collecting newly grown grasses, small buds of flowers or even the skins of trees, and if possible, by offering tulasī leaves, which are very dear to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "purport": [ + "It is specifically mentioned herein that tulasī leaves are very dear to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and devotees should take particular care to have tulasī leaves in every temple and center of worship.

But here we understand deśa-kāla to mean \"according to time and country.\" In the Western countries there is no River Yamunā or Ganges—water from such sacred rivers is not available. Does this mean that the arcā worship should be stopped for that reason? No. Salilaiḥ refers to any water—whatever is available—but it must be very clear and collected purely. That water can be used. The other paraphernalia, such as flower garlands, fruits and vegetables, should be collected according to the country and according to their availability. Tulasī leaves are very important for satisfying the Lord, so as far as possible, an arrangement should be made for growing tulasī leaves. Dhruva Mahārāja was advised to worship the Lord with the fruits and flowers available in the forest. In the Bhagavad-gītā Kṛṣṇa frankly says that He accepts vegetables, fruits, flowers, etc. One should not offer Lord Vāsudeva anything other than what is prescribed herein by the great authority Nārada Muni.

Māyāvādī philosophers take the incarnation of the Lord to be in the same category as the ordinary living entity. This is a great mistake. The incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is not forced to act by the material laws of nature. The word svecchā is used here to indicate that He appears out of His supreme will. The conditioned soul is forced to accept a particular type of body according to his karma given by the laws of material nature under the direction of the Supreme Lord. But when the Lord appears, He is not forced by the dictation of material nature; He appears as He likes by His own internal potency. That is the difference. The conditioned soul accepts a particular type of body, such as the body of a hog, by his work and by the superior authority of material nature. But when Lord Kṛṣṇa appears in the incarnation of a boar, He is not the same kind of hog as an ordinary animal. Kṛṣṇa appears as Varāha avatāra in an expansive feature which cannot be compared to an ordinary hog's. His appearance and disappearance are inconceivable to us. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly said that He appears by His own internal potency for the protection of the devotees and the annihilation of the nondevotees. A devotee should always consider that Kṛṣṇa does not appear as an ordinary human being or ordinary beast; His appearance as Varāha-mūrti or a horse or tortoise is an exhibition of His internal potency. In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said, ānanda-cinmaya-rasa-pratibhāvitābhiḥ: one should not mistake the appearance of the Lord as a human being or a beast to be the same as the birth of an ordinary conditioned soul, who is forced to appear by the laws of nature, whether as an animal, as a human being or as a demigod.

If one wants to he happy within this material world, he may aspire to go to the different material planetary systems where there is a higher standard of sense gratification, but real mokṣa or liberation is performed without any such desire. This is explained in the Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu by the term anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyam, \"without desire for material sense gratification.\" For persons who are still inclined to enjoy material life in different stages or on different planets, the stage of liberation in bhakti-yoga is not recommended. Only persons who are completely free from the contamination of sense gratification can execute bhakti-yoga, or the process of devotional service, very purely. The activities on the path of apavarga up to the stages of dharma, artha and kāma are meant for sense gratification, but when one comes to the stage of mokṣa, the impersonalist liberation, the practitioner wants to merge into the existence of the Supreme. But that is also sense gratification. When one goes above the stage of liberation, however, he at once becomes one of the associates of the Lord to render transcendental loving service.

Dhruva Mahārāja went to the forest, and since his mother was being neglected by the King, she was therefore, almost banished also. The King was repentant for banishing his boy because Dhruva was only five years old and a father should not banish his wife and children or neglect their maintenance. Repentant over his neglect of both Sunīti and her son, he was morose, and his face appeared withered. According to Manu-smṛti, one should never desert his wife and children. In a case where the wife and children are disobedient and do not follow the principles of home life, they are sometimes given up. But in the case of Dhruva Mahārāja this was not applicable because Dhruva was very mannerly and obedient. He was, moreover, a great devotee.

According to Vaiṣṇava philosophy the spiritual master occupies the post of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, or in other words he is the bona fide representative of the Supreme Lord. Dhruva Mahārāja is also described here as prabhu because he is an ācārya of the Vaiṣṇava school. Another meaning of prabhu is \"master of the senses,\" just like the word svāmī. Another significant word is suduṣkaram, \"very difficult to perform.\" What was the task that Dhruva Mahārāja undertook? The most difficult task in life is to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and Dhruva Mahārāja would be able to do that. We must remember that Dhruva Mahārāja was not fickle; he was determined to execute his service and then come back.

It is recommended in Bhagavad-gītā that one should accept as much food as necessary to keep the body fit, but one should not eat for luxury.

We should always remember that to become a bona fide devotee of the Lord is not an easy task, but in this age, by the mercy of Lord Caitanya, it has been made very easy. But if we do not follow even the liberal instructions of Lord Caitanya, how can we expect to discharge our regular duties in devotional service? It is not possible in this age to follow Dhruva Mahārāja in his austerity, but the principles must be followed; we should not disregard the regulative principles given by our spiritual master, for they make it easier for the conditioned soul. As far as our ISKCON movement is concerned, we simply ask that one observe the four prohibitive rules, chant sixteen rounds, and, instead of indulging in luxurious eating for the tongue, simply accept prasādam offered to the Lord. This does not mean that with our fasting the Lord should also fast. The Lord should be given foodstuff which is as nice as possible. But we should not make it a point to satisfy our own tongues. As far as possible we should accept simple foodstuff, just to keep the body and soul together to execute devotional service.", + "It is our duty to remember always that in comparison to Dhruva Mahārāja we are insignificant.

Brahman means one who not only is the greatest, but who has the potency to expand to an unlimited extent. How was it possible for Dhruva Mahārāja to capture Brahman within his heart? This question has been very nicely answered by Jīva Gosvāmī. He says that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the origin of Brahman, for since He comprises everything material and spiritual, there cannot be anything greater than He. In the Bhagavad-gītā also the Supreme Godhead says, \"I am the resting place of Brahman.\" Many persons, especially the Māyāvādī philosophers, consider Brahman the biggest, all-expanding substance, but according to this verse and other Vedic literatures, such as Bhagavad-gītā, the resting place of Brahman is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, just as the resting place of the sunshine is the sun globe. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, therefore, says that since the transcendental form of the Lord is the seed of all greatness, He is the Supreme Brahman. Since the Supreme Brahman was situated in the heart of Dhruva Mahārāja, he became heavier than the heaviest, and therefore everything trembled in all three worlds and in the spiritual world.", + "The mahat-tattva, or the sum total of the material creation, is to be understood as the ultimate end of all universes, including all the living entities therein. Brahman is the resort of the mahat-tattva, which includes all material and spiritual entities. It is described in this connection that the Supreme Brahman, the Personality of Godhead, is the master of both pradhāna and puruṣa. Pradhāna means subtle matter, such as ether. Puruṣa means the spiritual spark living entities who are entangled in that subtle material existence. These may also be described as parā prakṛti and aparā prakṛti, as stated in Bhagavad-gītā. Kṛṣṇa, being the controller of both the prakṛtis, is thus the master of pradhāna and puruṣa. In the Vedic hymns also the Supreme Brahman is described as antaḥpraviṣṭaḥ śāstā. This indicates that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is controlling everything and entering into everything. The Brahma-saṁhitā further confirms this: aṇḍāntarastha-paramāṇu-cayāntarastham: He has not only entered the universes, but He has entered even into the atom. In Bhagavad-gītā Kṛṣṇa also says, viṣṭabhyāham idaṁ kṛtsnam. The Supreme Personality of Godhead controls everything by entering into everything. By associating constantly with the Supreme Personality in his heart, Dhruva Mahārāja naturally became equal to the greatest, Brahman, by His association, and thus became the heaviest, and the entire universe trembled. In conclusion, a person who always concentrates on the transcendental form of Kṛṣṇa within his heart can very easily strike the whole world with wonder at his activities. This is the perfection of yoga performance, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Yoginām api sarveṣām: of all yogīs, the bhakti-yogī, who thinks of Kṛṣṇa always within his heart and engages in His loving transcendental service, is the topmost. Ordinary yogīs can exhibit wonderful material activities, known as aṣṭa-siddhi, eight kinds of yogic perfection, but a pure devotee of the Lord can surpass these perfections by performing activities which can make the whole universe tremble." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/79.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/79.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..dfb30fa5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/08/verses/79.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 79, + "reference": "SB 4.8.79", + "devanagari": "यदैकपादेन स पार्थिवार्भकस्तस्थौ तदंगुष्ठनिपीडिता मही\nननाम तत्रार्धम् इभेन्द्रधिष्ठिता तरीव सव्येतरतः पदे पदे", + "transliteration": "yadaika-pādena sa pārthivārbhakas\ntasthau tad-aṅguṣṭha-nipīḍitā mahī\nnanāma tatrārdham ibhendradhiṣṭhitā\ntarīva savyeta-rataḥ pade pade", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yadā", + "meanings": [ + "when" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eka", + "meanings": [ + "with one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pādena", + "meanings": [ + "leg" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Dhruva Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pārthiva", + "meanings": [ + "the King's" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arbhakaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasthau", + "meanings": [ + "remained standing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-aṅguṣṭha", + "meanings": [ + "his big toe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nipīḍitā", + "meanings": [ + "being pressed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahī", + "meanings": [ + "the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nanāma", + "meanings": [ + "bent down" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ardham", + "meanings": [ + "half" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ibhendra", + "meanings": [ + "the king of elephants" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhiṣṭhitā", + "meanings": [ + "being situated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tarī iva", + "meanings": [ + "like a boat" + ] + }, + { + "word": "savyeta-rataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "right and left" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pade pade", + "meanings": [ + "in every step." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As Dhruva Mahārāja, the King's son, kept himself steadily standing on one leg, the pressure of his big toe pushed down half the earth, just as an elephant being carried on a boat rocks the boat left and right with his every step.", + "purport": [ + "The most significant expression in this verse is pārthivārbhakaḥ (\"son of the King\").

That conclusion is based on proper understanding of the difference between jīva and Paramātmā, the individual soul and the Supersoul. The individual soul is forever a servant of the Supersoul, and therefore his relationship with the Supersoul is to offer service. That is called bhakti-yoga or bhakti-bhāva. Dhruva Mahārāja offered his prayers to the Lord not in the way of the impersonalist philosophers, but as a devotee. Therefore, it is clearly said here, bhakti-bhāva. The only prayers worth offering are those offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, whose reputation is spread far and wide. Dhruva Mahārāja wanted to have the kingdom of his father, but his father refused to even allow him to get on his lap. In order to fulfill his desire, the Lord had already created a planet known as the Pole star, Dhruvaloka, which was never to be annihilated even at the time of the dissolution of the universe.

Unless one is spiritually situated, all his activities are taken as a dead man's activities or ghostly activities. Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura has composed a song in which he addresses himself: \"O living entity, get up! How long shall you sleep on the lap of māyā? Now you have the opportunity of possessing a human form of body; now try to get up and realize yourself.\" The Vedas also declare, \"Get up! Get up! You have the opportunity, the boon of the human form of life—now realize yourself.\" These are the Vedic injunctions.", + "Dhruva Mahārāja actually experienced that upon enlightenment of his senses on the spiritual platform he could understand the essence of Vedic instruction—that the Supreme Godhead is the Supreme Person; He is not impersonal. Dhruva Mahārāja could immediately understand this fact. He was aware that for a very long time he was practically sleeping, and he felt the impetus to glorify the Lord according to the Vedic conclusion. A mundane person cannot offer any prayer or glorify the Supreme Personality of Godhead because he has no realization of the Vedic conclusion.", + "When Dhruva Mahārāja, therefore, found this difference within himself, he could immediately understand that it was because of the causeless mercy of the Lord. He offered obeisances to the Lord with great respect and reverence, completely understanding that the Lord's favor was upon him. This spiritual enlivenment of Dhruva Mahārāja's senses, mind, etc., was due to the action of the internal potency of the Lord. In this verse, therefore, the word sva-dhāmnā means by spiritual energy. Spiritual enlightenment is possible by the mercy of the spiritual energy of the Lord. The chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is first addressed to the spiritual energy of the Lord, Hare. This spiritual energy acts when a living entity fully surrenders and accepts his position as an eternal servitor. When a person places himself at the disposal or order of the Supreme Lord, that is called sevonmukha; at that time the spiritual energy gradually reveals the Lord to him.", + "Without revelation by the spiritual energy, one is unable to offer prayers glorifying the Lord. Any amount of philosophical speculation or poetic expression by mundane persons is still considered to be the action and reaction of the material energy. When one is actually enlivened by the spiritual energy, all his senses become purified, and he engages only in the service of the Lord. At that time his hands, legs, ear, tongue, mind, genitals—everything—engage in the service of the Lord. Such an enlightened devotee no longer has any material activities, nor has he any interest in being materially engaged. This process of purifying the senses and engaging them in the service of the Lord is known as bhakti, or devotional service. In the beginning, the senses are engaged by the direction of the spiritual master and śāstra, and after realization, when the same senses are purified, the engagement continues. The difference is that in the beginning the senses are engaged in a mechanical way, but after realization they are engaged in spiritual understanding." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c0dcb081 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,142 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 4.9.7", + "devanagari": "एकस्त्वम् एव भगवन्न् इदम् आत्मशक्त्या मायाख्ययोरुगुणया महदाद्यशेषम्\nसृष्ट्वानुविश्य पुरुषस्तदसद्गुणेषु नानेव दारुषु विभावसुवद्विभासि", + "transliteration": "ekas tvam eva bhagavann idam ātma-śaktyā\nmāyākhyayoru-guṇayā mahadādy-aśeṣam\nsṛṣṭvānuviśya puruṣas tad-asad-guṇeṣu\nnāneva dāruṣu vibhāvasu-vad vibhāsi", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ekaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavan", + "meanings": [ + "O my Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-śaktyā", + "meanings": [ + "by Your own potency" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyā-ākhyayā", + "meanings": [ + "of the name māyā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uru", + "meanings": [ + "greatly powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇayā", + "meanings": [ + "consisting of the modes of nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahat-ādi", + "meanings": [ + "the mahat-tattva, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśeṣam", + "meanings": [ + "unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sṛṣṭvā", + "meanings": [ + "after creating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuviśya", + "meanings": [ + "then after entering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "of māyā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asat-guṇeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "into the temporarily manifested qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nānā", + "meanings": [ + "variously" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "as if" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dāruṣu", + "meanings": [ + "into pieces of wood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhāvasu-vat", + "meanings": [ + "just like fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhāsi", + "meanings": [ + "You appear." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My Lord, You are the Supreme One, but by Your different energies You appear differently in the spiritual and material worlds.

In other words, for everyone but the devotees the Lord's energy acts as external energy. Dhruva Mahārāja could understand this fact very nicely, and he could understand also that the energy and the energetic are one and the same. The energy cannot be separated from the energetic.", + "The identity of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the feature of Paramātmā or Supersoul is admitted herein. His original spiritual energy enlivens the material energy, and thus the dead body appears to have life force. Voidist philosophers think that under certain material conditions symptoms of life occur in the material body, but the fact is that the material body cannot act on its own. Even a machine needs separate energy (electricity, steam, etc.). It is stated in this verse that the material energy acts in varieties of material bodies, just as fire burns differently in different wood according to the size and quality of the wood. In the case of devotees the same energy is transformed into spiritual energy; this is possible because the energy is originally spiritual, not material. As it is said, viṣṇu-śaktiḥ parā proktā. The original energy inspires a devotee, and thus he engages all his bodily limbs in the service of the Lord. The same energy, as external potency, engages the ordinary nondevotees in material activities for sense enjoyment. We should mark the difference between māyā and sva-dhāma—for devotees the sva-dhāma acts, whereas in the case of nondevotees the māyā energy acts." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/08.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/08.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..54babf9d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/08.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 8, + "reference": "SB 4.9.8", + "devanagari": "त्वद्दत्तया वयुनयेदम् अचष्ट विश्वं सुप्तप्रबुद्ध इव नाथ भवत्प्रपन्नः\nतस्यापवर्ग्यशरणं तव पादमूलं विस्मर्यते कृतविदा कथम् आर्तबन्धो", + "transliteration": "tvad-dattayā vayunayedam acaṣṭa viśvaṁ\nsupta-prabuddha iva nātha bhavat-prapannaḥ\ntasyāpavargya-śaraṇaṁ tava pāda-mūlaṁ\nvismaryate kṛtavidā katham ārtabandho", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tvat-dattayā", + "meanings": [ + "given by You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayunayā", + "meanings": [ + "by knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acaṣṭa", + "meanings": [ + "could see" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvam", + "meanings": [ + "whole universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "supta-prabuddhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a man rising from sleep" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nātha", + "meanings": [ + "O my Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavat-prapannaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Brahmā, who is surrendered unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "his" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpavargya", + "meanings": [ + "of persons desiring liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "the shelter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tava", + "meanings": [ + "Your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāda-mūlam", + "meanings": [ + "lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vismaryate", + "meanings": [ + "can be forgotten" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛta-vidā", + "meanings": [ + "by a learned person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "how" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārta-bandho", + "meanings": [ + "O friend of the distressed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O my master, Lord Brahmā is fully surrendered unto You.

They are like the modern astronauts who go to the moon; as soon as their fuel is used up, they are obliged to come back down to this earth.

From this statement by Dhruva Mahārāja it is clear that unless one is associated with devotees, his devotional service does not mature; it does not become distinct from material activities. The Lord says, satāṁ prasaṅgān mama vīrya-saṁvido bhavanti hṛt-karṇa-rasāyanāḥ kathāḥ. Only in the association of pure devotees can the words of Lord Kṛṣṇa be fully potent and relishable to the heart and ear. (Bhāg. 3.25.25) Dhruva Mahārāja explicitly wanted the association of devotees. That association in devotional activities is just like the waves of an incessantly flowing river. In our Krishna Consciousness Society we have full engagement twenty-four hours a day. Every moment of our time is always busily engaged in the service of the Lord. This is called the incessant flow of devotional service.", + "A Māyāvādī philosopher may question us, \"You may be very happy in the association of devotees, but what is your plan for crossing the ocean of material existence?\" Dhruva Mahārāja's answer is that it is not very difficult. He clearly says that this ocean can be crossed very easily if one simply becomes mad to hear the glories of the Lord. Bhavad-guṇa-kathā: for anyone who persistently engages in hearing the topics of the Lord from Śrīmad Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Caitanya-caritāmṛta and who is actually addicted to this process, just as one becomes addicted to intoxicants, it is very easy to cross the nescience of material existence. The ocean of material nescience is compared to a blazing fire, but to a devotee this blazing fire is insignificant because he is completely absorbed in devotional service. Although the material world is blazing fire, to a devotee it appears full of pleasure (viśvaṁ pūrṇaṁ-sukhāyate).", + "The purport of this statement by Dhruva Mahārāja is that devotional service in the association of devotees is the cause of the development of further devotional service. By devotional service only is one elevated to the transcendental planet Goloka Vṛndāvana, and there also there is only devotional service, for the activities of devotional service both in this world and in the spiritual world are one and the same. Devotional service does not change. The example of a mango can be given here. If one gets an unripe mango, it is still a mango, and when it is ripe it remains the same mango, but it has become more tasteful and relishable. Similarly, there is devotional service performed according to the direction of the spiritual master and the injunctions and regulative principles of śāstra, and there is devotional service in the spiritual world rendered directly in association with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But they are both the same. There is no change. The difference is that one stage is unripe and the other is ripe and more relishable.

Yogīs are generally not very much interested in devotional service; they want to regulate the breathing process. This is simply a bodily concern. Here Dhruva Mahārāja plainly says that a devotee has no more bodily interest. He knows that he is not the body. From the very beginning, therefore, without wasting time in bodily exercises, a devotee searches out a pure devotee and simply by his association becomes more advanced in spiritual consciousness than any yogī. Because a devotee knows that he is not the body, he is never affected by bodily happiness or distress.

Dhruva Mahārāja is carefully distinguishing the existence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead from that of the living entities. He points out the following differences. The Lord is eternally liberated. Whenever He appears, even within this material world, He is never entangled by the three modes of material nature. He is known, therefore, as try-adhīśa, the master of the three modes of material nature. In Bhagavad-gītā (7.14) it is said, daivī hy eṣā guṇamayī mama māyā duratyayā: the living entities are all entangled in the three modes of material nature. The external energy of the Lord is very strong, but the Lord, as the master of the three modes of material nature, is ever liberated from the action and reaction of those modes. He is, therefore, uncontaminated, as it is stated in the Īśopaniṣad. The contamination of the material world does not affect the Supreme Godhead. Kṛṣṇa therefore says in the Bhagavad-gītā that those who are rascals and fools think of Him as an ordinary human being, not knowing His paraṁ bhāvam. Paraṁ bhāvam refers to His being always transcendentally situated. Material contamination cannot affect Him.", + "Another difference between the Lord and the living entity is that a living entity is always in darkness. Even though he may be situated in the mode of goodness, there are still so many things which are unknown to him. But it is not the same for the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He knows past, present and future and everything that is happening in everyone's heart. Bhagavad-gītā confirms this (vedāhaṁ samatītāni). The Lord is not part of the soul—He is the unchangeable Supreme Soul, and the living entities are His parts and parcels. The living entity is forced to appear in this material world under the direction of daiva-māyā, but when the Lord appears, He comes by His own internal potency, ātma-māyā. Besides that, a living entity is within the time of past, present and future. His life has a beginning, a birth, and in the conditioned state his life ends with death. But the Lord is ādi-puruṣa, the original person. In the Brahma-saṁhitā Lord Brahmā offers his respect to the ādi-puruṣa, Govinda, the original person, who has no beginning, whereas the creation of this material world has a beginning. The Vedānta says, janmādy asya yataḥ; everything is born from the Supreme, but the Supreme has no birth. He has all the six opulences in full and beyond comparison, He is the master of material nature, His intelligence is not broken under any circumstances, and He stands aloof, although He is the maintainer of the whole creation. As stated in the Vedas (Kaṭha Up. 2.2.13), nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām. The Lord is the supreme maintainer. Living entities are meant to serve Him by offering sacrifices, for He is the rightful enjoyer of the results of all sacrifices. Everyone, therefore, should engage himself in the devotional service of the Lord with his life, his riches, his intelligence and his words. This is the original, constitutional position of the living entities. One should never compare the sleeping of an ordinary living entity with the sleeping of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the Causal Ocean. There is no stage at which the living entity can compare to the Supreme Person. The Māyāvādī philosophers, being unable to adjust to all this, come to the conclusion of impersonalism or voidism." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f77d4143 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,132 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 4.9.16", + "devanagari": "यस्मिन्विरुद्धगतयो ह्य् अनिशं पतन्ति विद्यादयो विविधशक्तय आनुपूर्व्यात्\nतद्ब्रह्म विश्वभवम् एकम् अनन्तम् आद्यम् आनन्दमात्रम् अविकारम् अहं प्रपद्ये", + "transliteration": "yasmin viruddha-gatayo hy aniśaṁ patanti\nvidyādayo vividha-śaktaya ānupūrvyāt\ntad brahma viśva-bhavam ekam anantam ādyam\nānanda-mātram avikāram ahaṁ prapadye", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yasmin", + "meanings": [ + "in whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viruddha-gatayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of opposite character" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aniśam", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patanti", + "meanings": [ + "are manifest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidyā-ādayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "knowledge and ignorance, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "vividha", + "meanings": [ + "various" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaktayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "energies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ānupūrvyāt", + "meanings": [ + "continually" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "Brahman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśva-bhavam", + "meanings": [ + "the cause of material creation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekam", + "meanings": [ + "one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anantam", + "meanings": [ + "unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādyam", + "meanings": [ + "original" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ānanda-mātram", + "meanings": [ + "simply blissful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avikāram", + "meanings": [ + "changeless" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prapadye", + "meanings": [ + "offer my obeisances." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Lord, in Your impersonal manifestation of Brahman there are always two opposing elements, knowledge and ignorance.

Although apparently Brahman seems to be devoid of energy, factually it has different energies working under the headings of knowledge and ignorance. On account of these different energies, there is continually a manifestation of vidyā and avidyā. Vidyā and avidyā are very nicely described in Īśopaniṣad. It is said there that sometimes, due to avidyā, or a poor fund of knowledge, one accepts the Absolute Truth as ultimately impersonal. But in fact the impersonal and personal realizations develop in proportion to the development of devotional service. The more we develop our devotional service, the more closely we approach the Absolute Truth, which, in the beginning, when we realize the Absolute Truth from a distant place, is manifest as impersonal.", + "People in general, who are under the influence of avidyā-śakti, or māyā, have neither knowledge nor devotion. But when a person who is a little advanced and is therefore called a jñānī advances even more, he is in the category of a jñāna-miśra-bhakta, or a devotee whose love is mixed with material knowledge. When he is still further advanced, he can realize that the Absolute Truth is a person with multi-energies. An advanced devotee can understand the Lord and His creative energy. As soon as one accepts the creative energy of the Absolute Truth, the six opulences of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are also understood. Devotees who are still further advanced, in full knowledge, can understand the transcendental pastimes of the Lord. Only on that platform can one fully enjoy transcendental bliss. An example is given in this connection by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura of a person proceeding towards a destination. As he approaches, he sees the destination from a distant place, just as we see a city from a distance. At that time he simply understands that the city is situated at a distance. When, however, he comes still nearer, he sees the domes and flags. But as soon as he enters the city, he sees various paths, gardens, lakes, and marketplaces with shops and persons buying.

Dhruva Mahārāja knew that he had come to worship the Lord in devotional service with a motive—to get the kingdom of his father. Such an adulterated devotee can never see the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face. He therefore felt very grateful for the causeless mercy of the Lord. The Lord is so merciful that He not only fulfills the desires of a devotee who is driven by ignorance and desires for material benefit, but He also gives him all protection, just as a cow gives milk to a newly born calf. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said that the Lord gives intelligence to the constantly engaged devotee so that he may gradually approach the Lord without difficulty. A devotee must be very sincere in his devotional service; then, although there may be many things wrong on the devotee's part, Kṛṣṇa will guide him and gradually elevate him to the highest position of devotional service.", + "The Lord is addressed herein by Dhruva Mahārāja as puruṣārtha-mūrti, the ultimate goal of life. Generally puruṣārtha is taken to mean execution of a type of religious principle or worship of God in order to get material benediction. Prayers for material benediction are intended for satisfying the senses. And when one is frustrated and cannot fully satisfy the senses in spite of all endeavor, he desires liberation, or freedom from material existence. These activities are generally called puruṣārtha. But actually the ultimate goal is to understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is called pañca-puruṣārtha, the ultimate goal of life. Lord Caitanya therefore taught us not to ask from the Supreme Personality any benediction such as material wealth, popularity or a good wife. One should simply pray to the Lord to be constantly engaged in His transcendental loving service. Dhruva Mahārāja, being cognizant of his desire for material benefit, wanted protection from the Lord so that he might not be misled or deviated from the path of devotional service by material desires." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..880fbeb2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 4.9.18", + "devanagari": "मैत्रेय उवाच\nअथाभिष्टुत एवं वै सत्संकल्पेन धीमता\nभृत्यानुरक्तो भगवान्प्रतिनन्द्येदम् अब्रवीत्", + "transliteration": "maitreya uvāca\nathābhiṣṭuta evaṁ vai\nsat-saṅkalpena dhīmatā\nbhṛtyānurakto bhagavān\npratinandyedam abravīt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "maitreyaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Maitreya said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiṣṭutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat-saṅkalpena", + "meanings": [ + "by Dhruva Mahārāja, who had only good desires in his heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhīmatā", + "meanings": [ + "because he was very intelligent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhṛtya-anuraktaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very favorably disposed towards devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratinandya", + "meanings": [ + "having congratulated him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abravīt", + "meanings": [ + "said." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The great sage Maitreya continued: My dear Vidura, when Dhruva Mahārāja, who had good intentions in his heart, finished his prayer, the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, who is very kind to His devotees and servants, congratulated him, speaking as follows.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..938ca0eb --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/09/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 4.9.19", + "devanagari": "श्री भगवान् उवाच\nवेदाहं ते व्यवसितं हृदि राजन्यबालक\nतत्प्रयच्छामि भद्रं ते दुरापम् अपि सुव्रत", + "transliteration": "śrī bhagavān uvāca\nvedāhaṁ te vyavasitaṁ\nhṛdi rājanya-bālaka\ntat prayacchāmi bhadraṁ te\ndurāpam api suvrata", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī bhagavān uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda", + "meanings": [ + "know" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyavasitam", + "meanings": [ + "determination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdi", + "meanings": [ + "within the heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājanya-bālaka", + "meanings": [ + "O son of the King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prayacchāmi", + "meanings": [ + "I shall give you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhadram", + "meanings": [ + "all good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durāpam", + "meanings": [ + "although it is very difficult to obtain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "in spite of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-vrata", + "meanings": [ + "one who has taken a pious vow." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Personality of Godhead said: My dear Dhruva, son of the King, you have executed pious vows, and I also know the desire within your heart.

It is assured here that Dhruva Mahārāja would be able to perform such activities. In this age of Kali, however, the great sacrifice is the performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is designed to teach people (and to learn ourselves) the exact instruction of the Personality of Godhead.

He did not demand actual liberation from this material world, but at the end of his devotional service, when the Supreme Personality of Godhead appeared before him, he was simply ashamed of the material demands he had in his mind.", + "purport": [ + "This important verse has been discussed by many stalwart commentators. Why was Dhruva Mahārāja not very pleased, even after achieving the goal of life he desired? A pure devotee is always free from any kind of material desires. In the material world, one's material desires are all most demonic; one thinks of others as one's enemies, one thinks of revenge against one's enemies, one aspires to become the topmost leader or topmost person in this material world, and thus one competes with all others, etc. This has been described in the Bhagavad-gītā, Sixteenth Chapter, as asuric. A pure devotee has no demand from the Lord. His only concern is to serve the Lord sincerely and seriously, and he is not at all concerned about what will happen in the future. In the Mukunda-mālā-stotra, King Kulaśekhara, author of the book, states in his prayer: \"My dear Lord, I don't want any position of sense gratification within this material world. I simply want to engage in Your service perpetually.\" Similarly, Lord Caitanya, in His Śikṣāṣṭaka, also prayed, \"My Lord, I do not want any amount of material wealth, I do not want any number of materialistic followers, nor do I want any attractive wife to enjoy. The only thing I want is that I may engage life after life in Your service.\" Lord Caitanya did not pray even for mukti, or liberation.", + "In this verse Maitreya replied to Vidura that Dhruva Mahārāja, influenced by a revengeful attitude towards his insulting stepmother, did not think of mukti, nor did he know what mukti is. Therefore he failed to aim for mukti as his goal in life. But a pure devotee also does not want liberation. He is a soul completely surrendered to the Supreme Lord, and he does not demand anything from the Lord. This position was realized by Dhruva Mahārāja when he saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead present personally before him because he was elevated to the vāsudeva platform. The vāsudeva platform refers to the stage at which material contamination is conspicuous by absence only, or in other words where there is no question of the material modes of nature—goodness, passion and ignorance—and one can therefore see the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Because on the vāsudeva platform one can see God face to face, the Lord is also called Vāsudeva.", + "Dhruva Mahārāja's demand was for a position so exalted that it was never enjoyed even by Lord Brahmā, his great-grandfather. Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is so affectionate and kind towards His devotee, especially to a devotee like Dhruva Mahārāja, who went to render devotional service in the forest alone at the age of only five years, that although the motive might be impure, the Lord does not consider the motive; He is concerned with the service. But if a devotee has a particular motive, the Lord directly or indirectly knows it, and therefore He does not leave the devotee's material desires unfulfilled. These are some of the special favors by the Lord to a devotee.", + "Dhruva Mahārāja was offered Dhruvaloka, a planet that was never resided upon by any conditioned soul. Even Brahmā, although the topmost living creature within this universe, was also not allowed to enter the Dhruvaloka. Whenever there is a crisis within this universe, the demigods go to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and they stand on the beach of the Milk Ocean. So the fulfillment of Dhruva Mahārāja's demand—a position more exalted than that of even his great-grandfather, Brahmā—was offered to him.", + "Here in this verse the Lord is described as mukti-pati, which means one under whose lotus feet there are all kinds of mukti. There are five kinds of mukti—sāyujya, sārūpya, sālokya, sāmīpya and sārṣṭi. Out of these five muktis, which can be achieved by any person engaged in devotional service to the Lord, the one which is known as sāyujya is generally demanded by Māyāvādī philosophers; they demand to become one with the impersonal Brahman effulgence of the Lord. In the opinion of many scholars, this sāyujya-mukti, although counted among the five kinds of mukti, is not actually mukti because from sāyujya-mukti one may again fall down to this material world. This information we have from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam wherein it is said patanty adhaḥ, which means \"they again fall down.\" The monist philosopher, after executing severe austerity, merges into the impersonal effulgence of the Lord, but the living entity always wants reciprocation in loving affairs. Therefore, although the monist philosopher is elevated to the status of being one with the effulgence of the Lord, because there is no facility for associating with the Lord and rendering service unto Him, he again falls into this material world, and his service propensity is satisfied by material welfare activities like humanitarianism, altruism and philanthropy. There are many instances of such falldowns, even for great sannyāsīs in the Māyāvāda school.", + "Therefore Vaiṣṇava philosophers do not accept sāyujya-mukti to be within the category of mukti. According to them, mukti means transferral to the loving service of the Lord from one's position of serving māyā. Lord Caitanya also says in this connection that the constitutional position of a living entity is to render service to the Lord. That is real mukti. When one is situated in his original position, giving up artificial positions, he is called mukta, or liberated. In the Bhagavad-gītā this is confirmed: anyone who engages in rendering transcendental loving service to the Lord is considered to be mukta or brahma-bhūta. It is said in Bhagavad-gītā that a devotee is considered to be on the brahma-bhūta platform when he has no material contamination. In the Padma Purāṇa this is also confirmed: mukti means engagement in the service of the Lord.", + "The great sage Maitreya explained that Dhruva Mahārāja did not desire in the beginning to engage in the service of the Lord, but he wanted an exalted position better than his great-grandfather's. This is more or less not service to the Lord but service to the senses. Even if one gets the position of Brahmā, the most exalted position in this material world, he is a conditioned soul. Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī says that if one is elevated to real, pure devotional service, he considers even great demigods like Brahmā and Indra to be on an equal level with an insignificant insect. The reason is that an insignificant insect has a desire for sense gratification and even a great personality like Lord Brahmā also wants to dominate this material nature.", + "Sense gratification means domination over material nature. The whole competition between conditioned souls is based upon domination of this material nature. Modern scientists are proud of their knowledge because they are discovering new methods to dominate the laws of material nature. They think that this is the advancement of human civilization—the more they can dominate the material laws, the more advanced they think they are. Dhruva Mahārāja's propensity in the beginning was like that. He wanted to dominate this material world in a greater position than Lord Brahmā. Therefore elsewhere it is described that after the appearance of the Lord, when Dhruva Mahārāja thought and compared his determination to his final reward, he realized that he had wanted a few particles of broken glass but instead had received many diamonds. As soon as he saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face, he immediately became conscious of the unimportance of his demand from the Lord to have an exalted position better than Lord Brahmā's.", + "When Dhruva Mahārāja became situated on the vāsudeva platform due to seeing the Lord face to face, all his material contamination was cleared. Thus he became ashamed of what his demands were and what he had achieved. He was very much ashamed to think that although he had gone to Madhuvana, giving up the kingdom of his father, and he had gotten a spiritual master like Nārada Muni, he was still thinking of revenge against his stepmother and wanted to occupy an exalted post within this material world. These were the causes for his moroseness even after he received all the desired benedictions from the Lord.", + "When Dhruva Mahārāja factually saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead, there was no question of a revengeful attitude towards his stepmother nor any aspiration to lord it over the material world, but the Supreme Personality is so kind that He knew that Dhruva Mahārāja wanted these. Speaking before Dhruva Mahārāja, He used the word vedāham because when Dhruva Mahārāja demanded material benefits, the Lord was present within his heart and so knew everything. The Lord always knows everything a man is thinking. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā also: vedāhaṁ samatītāni.", + "The Lord fulfilled all Dhruva Mahārāja's desires. His revengeful attitude towards his stepmother and stepbrother was satisfied. He wanted a more exalted position than that of his great-grandfather. That was also fulfilled. And at the same time, his eternal position in Dhruvaloka was fixed. Although Dhruva Mahārāja's achievement of an eternal planet was not conceived of by him, Kṛṣṇa thought, \"What will Dhruva do with an exalted position within this material world?\" Therefore He gave him the opportunity to rule this material world for 36,000 years with unchangeable senses and the chance to perform many great sacrifices and thus become the most reputed king within this material world.

Hariṁ vinā na sṛtiṁ taranti. It is said that without the blessings of Hari, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, no one can stop the continuous chain of birth and death within this material world. Therefore the Supreme Lord is also called bhava-cchida. The Vaiṣṇava philosophy in the process of Kṛṣṇa consciousness prohibits the devotee from all kinds of material aspirations. A Vaiṣṇava devotee should always be anyābhilāṣitā-śūnya, free from all material aspirations for the results of fruitive activities or empiric philosophical speculation.

Although he got the result of the viṣṇu-mantra by the causeless mercy of the Lord, he lamented how foolish he was to strive for material benefits while practicing devotional service. In other words, every one of us who is engaged in devotional service in Kṛṣṇa consciousness should be completely free from all material aspirations.

The actual fact is that all living entities are sons of God, or by-products of His marginal energy. Because of our being contaminated by the modes of material nature, we distinguish one spiritual spark from another. That is also another kind of dreaming. It is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā that those who are actually learned do not make any distinction between a learned scholar, a brāhmaṇa, an elephant, a dog and a caṇḍāla; they do not see in terms of the external body, but they see the person as spirit soul. By higher understanding one can know that the material body is nothing but a combination of the five material elements. In that sense also the bodily construction of a human being and that of a demigod are one and the same. From the spiritual point of view we are all spiritual sparks, parts and parcels of the Supreme Spirit, God.

When one knows these things perfectly, he is always satisfied. The pure devotee never hankers after any kind of material prosperity. The karmīs, however, or jñānīs or yogīs, endeavor always for their own personal happiness. Karmīs work day and night to improve their economic condition, jñānīs undergo severe austerities in order to get liberation, and yogīs also undergo severe austerities by practicing the yoga system for attainment of wonderful mystic powers. A devotee, however, is not interested in such activities; he does not want mystic powers or liberation or material prosperity. He is satisfied in any condition of life, as long as he is constantly engaged in the service of the Lord. The Lord's feet are compared to the lotus, wherein there is saffron dust. A devotee is always engaged in drinking the honey from the lotus feet of the Lord. Unless one is freed from all material desires, he cannot actually taste the honey from the Lord's lotus feet. One has to discharge his devotional duties without being disturbed by the coming and going of material circumstances. This desirelessness for material prosperity is called niṣkāma. One should not mistakenly think that niṣkāma means giving up all desires. That is impossible. A living entity is eternally existent, and he cannot give up desires. A living entity must have desires; that is the symptom of life. When there is a recommendation to become desireless, it is to be understood that this means that we should not desire anything for our sense gratification. For a devotee this state of mind, niḥspṛha, is the right position. Actually every one of us already has an arrangement for our standard of material comforts. A devotee should always remain satisfied with the standard of comforts offered by the Lord, as stated in the Īśopaniṣad (tena tyaktena bhuñjīthāḥ).

Feelings of insult or honor in this material world are never perceived by a devotee. Lord Caitanya therefore says that one has to be humbler than the grass, and, He recommends, more tolerant than the tree, to execute devotional service.

Of course, here on this earth there are many trees which live for 10,000 years, so what to speak of the trees on the heavenly planets?

The answer is that Mahārāja Uttānapāda was a rājarṣi, saintly king. Although he was busy in his political affairs and duties of government management, still he was very anxious for self-realization. Therefore as soon as his son, Dhruva Mahārāja, was quite worthy to take charge of the government, he took this opportunity to leave home, just like his son, who, without fear, left home for self-realization, even at the age of five years.

If the killing is done by the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His devotee or in great sacrifices, it is for the benefit of the entity killed in that way. Material so-called nonviolence is very insignificant in comparison to killing done by the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His devotees.

Celibacy is so important that even though one does not undergo any austerities, penances or ritualistic ceremonies prescribed in the Vedas, if one simply keeps himself a pure brahmacārī, not discharging his semina, the result is that after death he goes to the Satyaloka. Generally, sex life is the cause of all miseries in the material world. In the Vedic civilization sex life is restricted in various ways. Out of the whole population of the social structure, only the gṛhasthas are allowed restricted sex life. All others refrain from sex. The people of this age especially do not know the value of not discharging semina. As such, they are variously entangled with material qualities and suffer an existence of struggle only. The word ūrdhva-retasaḥ especially indicates the Māyāvādī sannyāsīs, who undergo strict principles of austerity. But in the Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says that even if one goes up to Brahmaloka, he again comes back. (Ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino 'rjuna. Bg. 8.16) Therefore, actual mukti or liberation can be attained only by devotional service, because by devotional service one can go above Brahmaloka, or to the spiritual world, wherefrom he never comes back. Māyāvādī sannyāsīs are very proud of becoming liberated, but actual liberation is not possible unless one is in touch with the Supreme Lord in devotional service.

Dhruva Mahārāja is advised here by Lord Manu that he is a pure servitor of the Lord. Why should he unnecessarily engage, like the animals, in the bodily concept of life?

Everything is happening by the energy of the Supreme Lord. The atheistic philosophers who do not agree to accept the Supreme Personality of Godhead as the original cause of creation think that the material world moves by the action and reaction of different material elements. A simple example of the interaction of elements occurs when we mix soda and acid and the movement of effervescence is produced. But one cannot produce life by such interaction of chemicals. There are 8,400,000 different species of life, with different wishes and different actions. How the material force is working cannot be explained just on the basis of chemical reaction. A suitable example in this connection is that of the potter and the potter's wheel. The potter's wheel rotates, and several varieties of earthen pots come out. There are many causes for the earthen pots, but the original cause is the potter, who sets a force on the wheel. That force comes by his superintendence. The same idea is explained in Bhagavad-gītā—behind all material action and reaction there is Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Kṛṣṇa says that everything depends on His energy and yet He is not everywhere. The pot is produced under certain conditions of action and reaction of material energy, but the potter is not in the pot. In a similar way, the material creation is set up by the Lord, but He remains aloof. As stated in the Vedas, He simply glanced over it, and the agitation of matter immediately began.", + "In Bhagavad-gītā it is also said that the Lord impregnates the material energy with the part-and-parcel jīvas, and thus the different forms and different activities immediately ensue. Because of the different desires and karmic activities of the jīva soul, different types of bodies in different species are produced. In Darwin's theory there is no acceptance of the living entity as spirit soul, and therefore his explanation of evolution is incomplete. Varieties of phenomena occur within this universe on account of the actions and reactions of the three material modes, but the original creator, or the cause, is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is mentioned here as nimitta-mātram, the remote cause. He simply pushes the wheel with His energy. According to the Māyāvādī philosophers, the Supreme Brahman has transformed Himself into many varieties of forms, but that is not the fact.

Similarly, the Supreme Personality of Godhead is always merciful and full of transcendental qualities, but certain individual souls have forgotten their relationship with Kṛṣṇa and have endeavored to lord it over material nature. As a result of their endeavor, they are involved in varieties of material interaction. It is incorrect to argue, however, that because energy issues from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He is the actor. In the previous verse, the word nimitta-mātram indicates that the Supreme Lord is completely aloof from the action and reaction of this material world. How is everything being done? The word \"inconceivable\" has been used. It is not within the power of one's small brain to comprehend; unless one accepts the inconceivable power and energy of the Lord, one cannot make any progress.

The varieties of energies produced by the interaction of material nature produce the varieties of species of life and their resultant happiness and unhappiness.", + "How the Lord acts is nicely explained in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa: fire is situated in one place, while the heat and light produced by the fire act in many different ways. Another example given is that the electric powerhouse is situated in one place, but by its energies many different types of machinery move. The production is never identical with the original source of the energy, but the original source of energy, being the prime factor, is simultaneously one and different from the product. Therefore, Lord Caitanya's philosophy, acintya-bhedābheda-tattva, is the perfect way of understanding. In this material world, the Lord incarnates in three forms—as Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Śiva—by which He takes charge of the three modes of material nature.

To a sane man this business is not very fruitful.

Those who are inclined to material activities remain in the material sphere.

The story is that a frog in a three-foot well wanted to calculate the length and breadth of the Atlantic Ocean on the basis of his knowledge of his own well. But it was an impossible task for Dr. Frog. A person may be a great academician, scholar or professor, but he cannot speculate and expect to understand the Absolute Truth because his senses are limited. The cause of all causes, the Absolute Truth, can be known from the Absolute Truth Himself, and not by our ascending process to reach Him. When the sun is not visible at night or when it is covered by a cloud in the day, it is not possible to uncover it, either by bodily or mental strength or by scientific instruments, although the sun is there in the sky. No one can say that he has discovered a torchlight so powerful that if one goes on a roof and focuses the torchlight on the night sky, the sun will then be seen. There is no such torchlight, nor is it possible.", + "The word avyakta, unmanifested, in this verse indicates that the Absolute Truth cannot be manifested by any strain of so-called scientific advancement of knowledge. Transcendence is not the subject matter of direct experience. The Absolute Truth may be known in the same way as the sun covered by a cloud or covered by night, for when the sun rises in the morning, in its own way, then everyone can see the sun, everyone can see the world, and everyone can see himself. This understanding of self-realization is called ātma-tattva. Unless, however, one comes to this point of understanding ātma-tattva, one remains in the darkness in which he was born. Under the circumstances, no one can understand the plan of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord is equipped with varieties of energies, as stated in the Vedic literature (parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate). He is equipped with the energy of eternal time. He has not only the material energy which we see and experience, but He has also many reserve energies that He can manifest in due course of time when necessary. The material scientist can simply study the partial understanding of the varieties of energies; he can take up one of the energies and try to understand it with limited knowledge, but still it is not possible to understand the Absolute Truth in full by dint of material science. No material scientist can foretell what is going to happen in the future. The bhakti-yoga process is, however, completely different from so-called scientific advancement of knowledge. A devotee completely surrenders unto the Supreme, and He reveals Himself by His causeless mercy. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ tam. The Lord says, \"I give him intelligence.\" What is that intelligence? Yena mām upayānti te. The Lord gives him the intelligence to cross over the ocean of nescience and come back home, back to Godhead. In conclusion, the cause of all causes, the Absolute Truth or Supreme Brahman, cannot be understood by philosophical speculation, but He reveals Himself to His devotee because the devotee fully surrenders unto His lotus feet.

Sometimes he gets the body of a demigod, and he thinks that body to be his identity. Similarly, when he gets the body of a dog he identifies his self with that body. But for the Supreme Personality of Godhead there is no such distinction between the body and the soul. Bhagavad-gītā, therefore, certifies that anyone who thinks of Kṛṣṇa as an ordinary human being is without knowledge of His transcendental nature and is a great fool. The Lord says, na māṁ karmāṇi limpanti: He is not affected by anything He does because He is never contaminated by the material modes of nature. That we have a material body proves that we are infected by the three material modes of nature. The Lord says to Arjuna, \"You and I had many, many births previously, but I remember everything, whereas you do not.\" That is the difference between the living entity, or conditioned soul, and the Supreme Soul. The Supersoul, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has no material body, and because He has no material body, He is not affected by any work He executes. There are many Māyāvādī philosophers who consider that Kṛṣṇa's body is the effect of a concentration of the material mode of goodness, and they distinguish Kṛṣṇa's soul from Kṛṣṇa's body. The real situation, however, is that the body of the conditioned soul, even if he has a large accumulation of material goodness, is material, whereas Kṛṣṇa's body is never material; it is transcendental. Kṛṣṇa has no false ego, for He does not identify Himself with the false and temporary body. His body is always eternal; He descends on this world in His own original spiritual body.

The demons repeatedly meet death after death and create a network of involvement in the material world. The Lord is death for the demons, but for devotees He is amṛta, eternal life. Devotees who render continuous service to the Lord have already attained immortality, for whatever they are doing in this life they will continue to do in the next. They will simply change their material bodies for spiritual bodies. Unlike the demons, they no longer have to change material bodies. The Lord, therefore, is simultaneously death and immortality. He is death for demons and immortality for devotees. He is the ultimate goal of everyone because He is the cause of all causes. Dhruva Mahārāja was advised to surrender unto Him in all respects, without keeping any personal ambition.

But because he was the ruler, it was his duty to become angry for some time in order to keep law and order in the state. His brother, Uttama, was without fault, yet he was killed by one of the Yakṣas. It was the duty of Dhruva Mahārāja to kill the offender (life for life) because Dhruva was the king. When the challenge came, Dhruva Mahārāja fought vehemently and punished the Yakṣas sufficiently. But anger is such that if one increases it, it increases unlimitedly. In order that Dhruva Mahārāja's kingly anger not exceed the limit, Manu was kind enough to check his grandson. Dhruva Mahārāja could understand the purpose of his grandfather, and he immediately stopped the fighting. The words śrutena bhūyasā, by constantly hearing, are very important in this verse. By constantly hearing about devotional service, one can check the force of anger, which is detrimental to the process of devotional service. Śrīla Parīkṣit Mahārāja said that the constant hearing of the pastimes of the Lord is the panacea for all material diseases. Everyone, therefore, should hear about the Supreme Personality of Godhead constantly. By hearing one can always remain in equilibrium, and thus his progress in spiritual life will not be hampered.", + "Dhruva Mahārāja's becoming angry with the miscreants was quite appropriate. There is a short story in this connection about a snake who became a devotee upon instruction by Nārada, who instructed him not to bite anymore. Since ordinarily a snake's business is to fatally bite other living entities, as a devotee he was forbidden to do so. Unfortunately, people took advantage of this nonviolence on the part of the snake, especially the children, who began to throw stones at him. He did not bite anyone, however, because it was the instruction of his spiritual master. After a while, when the snake met his spiritual master, Nārada, he complained, \"I have given up the bad habit of biting innocent living entities, but they are mistreating me by throwing stones at me.\" Upon hearing this, Nārada Muni instructed him, \"Don't bite, but do not forget to expand your hood as if you were going to bite. Then they will go away.\" Similarly, a devotee is always nonviolent; he is qualified with all good characteristics. But, in the common world, when there is mischief made by others, he should not forget to become angry, at least for the time being, in order to drive away the miscreants." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/11/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/11/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7fa919e1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/11/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 4.11.32", + "devanagari": "येनोपसृष्टात्पुरुषाल्लोक उद्विजते भृशम्\nन बुधस्तद्वशं गच्छेद् इच्छन्न् अभयम् आत्मनः", + "transliteration": "yenopasṛṣṭāt puruṣāl\nloka udvijate bhṛśam\nna budhas tad-vaśaṁ gacched\nicchann abhayam ātmanaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upasṛṣṭāt", + "meanings": [ + "being overwhelmed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣāt", + "meanings": [ + "by the person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "everyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvijate", + "meanings": [ + "becomes terrified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhṛśam", + "meanings": [ + "greatly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "budhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a learned person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "of anger" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaśam", + "meanings": [ + "under the control" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gacchet", + "meanings": [ + "should go" + ] + }, + { + "word": "icchan", + "meanings": [ + "desiring" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhayam", + "meanings": [ + "fearlessness, liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the self." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "A person who desires liberation from this material world should not fall under the control of anger because when bewildered by anger one becomes a source of dread for all others.", + "purport": [ + "A devotee or saintly person should not be dreadful to others, nor should anyone be a source of dread to him.

Since the Lord is absolute, the services are also absolute; even though the hand is working one way and the leg is working in another way, since the purpose is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they are all one. This is not to be confused with the statement by the Māyāvādī philosopher that \"everything is one.\" Real knowledge is that hand is hand, leg is leg, body is body, and yet all together they are one. As soon as the living entity thinks that he is independent, his conditional, material existence begins. The conception of independent existence is, therefore, like a dream. One has to be in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, his original position. Then he can be freed from material bondage." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6e04ae1f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 4.12.5", + "devanagari": "तद्गच्छ ध्रुव भद्रं ते भगवन्तम् अधोक्षजम्\nसर्वभूतात्मभावेन सर्वभूतात्मविग्रहम्", + "transliteration": "tad gaccha dhruva bhadraṁ te\nbhagavantam adhokṣajam\nsarva-bhūtātma-bhāvena\nsarva-bhūtātma-vigraham", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gaccha", + "meanings": [ + "come" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhruva", + "meanings": [ + "Dhruva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhadram", + "meanings": [ + "good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavantam", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhokṣajam", + "meanings": [ + "who is beyond the concepts of material senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-bhūta", + "meanings": [ + "all living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-bhāvena", + "meanings": [ + "by thinking of them as one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-bhūta", + "meanings": [ + "in all living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vigraham", + "meanings": [ + "having form." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Dhruva, come forward.

Devotional service cannot be rendered to the impersonal Brahman feature of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Whenever the word \"bhajasva\" appears, meaning \"engage yourself in devotional service,\" there must be the servant, service and the served. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is served, the mode of activities to please Him is called service, and one who renders such service is called the servant. Another significant feature in this verse is that only the Lord, and no one else, is to be served. That is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja). There is no need to serve the demigods, who are just like the hands and legs of the Supreme Lord. When the Supreme Lord is served, the hands and legs of the Supreme Lord are automatically served. There is no need of separate service. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, teṣām ahaṁ samuddhartā mṛtyu-saṁsāra-sāgarāt. (Bg. 12.7) This means that the Lord, in order to show specific favor to the devotee, directs the devotee from within in such a way that ultimately he is delivered from the entanglement of material existence. No one but the Supreme Lord can help the living entity to be delivered from the entanglement of this material world. The material energy is a manifestation of one of the Supreme Personality of Godhead's varieties of potencies (parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate). This material energy is one of the Lord's potencies, as much as heat and light are potencies of fire. The material energy is not different from the Supreme Godhead, but at the same time He has nothing to do with the material energy. The living entity, who is of the marginal energy, is entrapped by the material energy on the basis of his desire to lord it over the material world. The Lord is aloof from this, but when the same living entity engages himself in the devotional service of the Lord, then he becomes attached to this service. This situation is called yuktam. For devotees the Lord is present even in the material energy. This is the inconceivable potency of the Lord. Material energy acts in the three modes of material qualities, which produce the action and reaction of material existence. Those who are not devotees become involved in such activities, whereas devotees, who are dovetailed with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, are freed from such action and reaction of the material energy. The Lord is therefore described herewith as bhava-cchidam, one who can give deliverance from the entanglement of material existence." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e8f8b582 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,129 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 4.12.7", + "devanagari": "वृणीहि कामं नृप यन्मनोगतं मत्तस्त्वम् औत्तानपदे ऽविशंकितः\nवरं वरार्हो ऽम्बुजनाभपादयोर् अनन्तरं त्वां वयम् अंग शुश्रुम", + "transliteration": "vṛṇīhi kāmaṁ nṛpa yan manogataṁ\nmattas tvam auttānapade 'viśaṅkitaḥ\nvaraṁ varārho 'mbuja-nābha-pādayor\nanantaraṁ tvāṁ vayam aṅga śuśruma", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "vṛṇīhi", + "meanings": [ + "please ask" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmam", + "meanings": [ + "desire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛpa", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whatever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ-gatam", + "meanings": [ + "within your mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mattaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "auttānapade", + "meanings": [ + "O son of Mahārāja Uttānapāda" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aviśaṅkitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without hesitation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varam", + "meanings": [ + "benediction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vara-arhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "worthy to take benedictions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ambuja", + "meanings": [ + "lotus flower" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nābha", + "meanings": [ + "whose navel" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pādayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "at His lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anantaram", + "meanings": [ + "constantly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvām", + "meanings": [ + "about you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayam", + "meanings": [ + "we" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅga", + "meanings": [ + "dear Dhruva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuśruma", + "meanings": [ + "have heard." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Dhruva Mahārāja, son of Mahārāja Uttānapāda, we have heard that you are constantly engaged in transcendental loving service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is known for His lotus navel.

These four principles are known as catur-vargas. Of all the catur-vargas, the benediction of liberation is considered to be the highest in this material world. To be enabled to cross over material nescience is known as the highest puruṣārtha, or benediction for the human being. But Dhruva Mahārāja wanted a benediction which surpasses even the highest puruṣārtha, liberation. He wanted the benediction that he might constantly remember the lotus feet of the Lord. This stage of life is called pañca-puruṣārtha. When a devotee comes to the platform of pañca-puruṣārtha, simply engaging in devotional service to the Lord, the fourth puruṣārtha, liberation, becomes very insignificant in his eyes. Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī has stated in this connection that for a devotee liberation is a hellish condition of life; as for sense gratification, which is available in the heavenly planets, the devotee considers it to be a will-o'-the-wisp, having no value in life. Yogīs endeavor to control the senses, but for a devotee controlling the senses is no difficulty at all. The senses are compared to serpents, but for a devotee the serpents' poison teeth are broken. Thus Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī has analyzed all kinds of benedictions available in this world, and he clearly declares that for a pure devotee they are all of no significance. Dhruva Mahārāja was also a mahā-bhāgavata, or a first-class pure devotee, and his intelligence was very great (mahā-matiḥ). Unless one is very intelligent, one cannot take to devotional service or Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Naturally, anyone who is a first-class devotee must be a first-class intelligent person and therefore not interested in any kind of benediction within this material world. Dhruva Mahārāja was offered benediction by the king of the kings. Kuvera, the treasurer of the demigods, whose only business is to supply immense riches to persons within this materialistic world, is described as the king of kings because unless benedicted by Kuvera one cannot become a king. The king of kings personally offered Dhruva Mahārāja any amount of riches, but he declined.

The gopīs, for example, worshiped Kātyāyanī, a demigoddess, but the only benediction they wanted from the goddess was to have Kṛṣṇa as their husband. A Vaiṣṇava is not interested in asking any benediction from the demigods, nor is he interested in asking benedictions from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is said in the Bhāgavatam that liberation can be offered by the Supreme Person, but even if a pure devotee is offered liberation by the Supreme Lord, he refuses to accept it. Dhruva Mahārāja did not ask Kuvera for transference to the spiritual world, which is called liberation; he simply asked that wherever he would remain—whether in the spiritual or material world—he would always remember the Supreme Personality of Godhead. A Vaiṣṇava is always respectful to everyone. So when Kuvera offered him a benediction, he did not refuse it.

Dhruva Mahārāja, as a king and ideal kṣatriya, performed many such sacrifices, giving very liberally in charity. Kṣatriyas and vaiśyas are supposed to earn their money and accumulate great riches. Sometimes they do it by acting sinfully. Kṣatriyas are meant to rule over a country; Dhruva Mahārāja, for example, in the course of ruling, had to fight and kill many Yakṣas.

Those who are in the material world, the kṣatriyas and the vaiśyas, must give in charity. Brahmacārīs, in the beginning of their lives, should perform different kinds of yajñas.", + "Dhruva Mahārāja, as an ideal king, practically emptied his treasury by giving in charity. A king is not meant simply to realize taxes from the citizens and accumulate wealth to spend in sense gratification. World monarchy has failed ever since kings began to satisfy their personal senses with the taxes accumulated from the citizens. Of course, whether the system is monarchy or democracy, the same corruption is still going on. At the present moment there are different parties in the democratic government, but everyone is busy trying to keep their posts or trying to keep their political party in power. They have very little time to think of the welfare of the citizens, whom they oppress with heavy taxes in the form of income tax, sales tax and many other taxes—people sometimes have eighty to ninety percent of their income taken away, and these taxes are lavishly spent for the high salaries drawn by the officers and rulers. Formerly, the taxes accumulated from the citizens were spent for performing great sacrifices as enjoined in the Vedic literature. At the present moment, however, almost all forms of sacrifice are not at all possible; therefore, it is recommended in the śāstras that people should perform saṅkīrtana-yajña. Any householder, regardless of his position, can perform this saṅkīrtana-yajña without expenditure. All the family members can sit down together and simply clap their hands and chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra. Somehow or other, everyone can manage to perform such a yajña and distribute prasāda to the people in general. That is quite sufficient for this age of Kali. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is based on this principle: chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra at every moment, as much as possible, both inside and outside of the temples, and, as far as possible, distribute prasāda. This process can be accelerated with the cooperation of state administrators and those who are producing the country's wealth. Simply by liberal distribution of prasāda and saṅkīrtana, the whole world can become peaceful and prosperous.", + "Generally in all the material sacrifices recommended in the Vedic literature there are offerings to the demigods. This demigod worship is especially meant for less intelligent men. Actually, the result of such sacrifice goes to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nārāyaṇa.

His name is, therefore, Yajñapuruṣa.", + "Although he was a great devotee and had nothing to do with these sacrifices, still, to set an example to his people, Dhruva Mahārāja performed many sacrifices and gave all his wealth in charity. For as long as he lived as a householder, he never spent a farthing for his sense gratification. In this verse the word karma-phala-pradam is very significant. The Lord awards everyone different kinds of karma as the individual living entities desire; He is the Supersoul present within the heart of everyone, and He is so kind and liberal that He gives everyone full facilities to perform whatever acts one wants. Then the result of the action is also enjoyed by the living entity. If anyone wants to enjoy or lord it over material nature, the Lord gives him full facilities, but he becomes entangled in the resultant reactions. Similarly, if anyone wants to engage himself fully in devotional service, the Lord gives him full facilities, and the devotee enjoys the results. The Lord is therefore known as karma-phala-prada." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..aa1bb618 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 4.12.11", + "devanagari": "सर्वात्मन्य् अच्युते ऽसर्वे तीव्रौघां भक्तिम् उद्वहन्\nददर्शात्मनि भूतेषु तम् एवावस्थितं विभुम्", + "transliteration": "sarvātmany acyute 'sarve\ntīvraughāṁ bhaktim udvahan\ndadarśātmani bhūteṣu\ntam evāvasthitaṁ vibhum", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sarva-ātmani", + "meanings": [ + "unto the Supersoul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acyute", + "meanings": [ + "infallible" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asarve", + "meanings": [ + "without any limit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tīvra-oghām", + "meanings": [ + "with unrelenting force" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktim", + "meanings": [ + "devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvahan", + "meanings": [ + "rendering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadarśa", + "meanings": [ + "he saw" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmani", + "meanings": [ + "in the Supreme Spirit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūteṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in all living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "only" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avasthitam", + "meanings": [ + "situated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhum", + "meanings": [ + "all-powerful." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Dhruva Mahārāja rendered devotional service unto the Supreme, the reservoir of everything, with unrelenting force.

The state head should be very kind to the innocent. Unfortunately in this age the state agents and the presidents draw good salaries from the state, and they pose themselves as very pious, but they allow the running of slaughterhouses where innocent animals are killed. If we try to compare the godly qualities of Dhruva Mahārāja to the qualities of modern statesmen, we can see that there is no actual comparison. Dhruva Mahārāja was present in the Satya-yuga, as will be clear from the next verses. He was the ideal king in Satya-yuga.

It is said in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that devotional service should be apratihatā, not checked by the material conditions of happiness or distress. The devotee undergoes processes of austerity such as observing Ekādaśī and similar other fasting days and refraining from illicit sex life, intoxication, gambling and meat-eating.

These eight bodily transformations, which indicate that a devotee is already liberated within himself, are called aṣṭa-sāttvika-vikāra. When a devotee completely forgets his bodily existence, he is to be understood to be liberated. He is no longer encaged in the body. The example is given that when a coconut becomes completely dry, the coconut pulp within the coconut shell separates from the bondage of the shell and the outer covering. By moving the dry coconut, one can hear that the pulp within is no longer attached to the shell or to the covering. Similarly, when one is fully absorbed in devotional service, he is completely disconnected from the two material coverings, the subtle and gross bodies. Dhruva Mahārāja actually attained this stage of life by constantly discharging devotional service. He is already described as a mahā-bhāgavata, for unless one becomes a mahā-bhāgavata, or a first-class pure devotee, these symptoms are not visible. Lord Caitanya exhibited all these symptoms. Ṭhākura Haridāsa also exhibited them, and there are many pure devotees who manifested such bodily symptoms. They are not to be imitated, but when one is actually advanced, these symptoms are exhibited. At that time it is to be understood that a devotee is materially free. Of course, from the beginning of devotional service the path of liberation immediately opens, just as the coconut taken from the tree immediately begins to dry; it simply takes some time for the shell and pulp to separate from one another.", + "An important word in this verse is mukta-liṅgaḥ. Mukta means liberated, and liṅga means the subtle body. When a man dies, he quits the gross body, but the subtle body of mind, intelligence and ego carries him to a new body. While existing in the present body, the same subtle body carries him from one stage of life to another (for example, from childhood to boyhood) by mental development. The mental condition of a baby is different from that of a boy, the mental condition of a boy is different from that of a young man, and the mental condition of a young man is different from that of an old man. So at death the process of changing bodies takes place due to the subtle body; the mind, intelligence and ego carry the soul from one gross body to another. This is called transmigration of the soul. But there is another stage, when one becomes liberated even from the subtle body; at that time the living entity is competent and fully prepared to be transferred to the transcendental or spiritual world.", + "The description of the bodily symptoms of Śrī Dhruva Mahārāja makes it apparent that he became perfectly fit to be transferred to the spiritual world. One can experience the distinction between the subtle and gross bodies even daily; in a dream, one's gross body is lying on the bed while the subtle body carries the soul, the living entity, to another atmosphere. But because the gross body has to be continued, the subtle body comes back and settles in the present gross body. Therefore one has to become free from the subtle body also. This freedom is known as mukta-liṅga." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..790fcf1b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/12/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 4.12.19", + "devanagari": "स ददर्श विमानाग्र्यं नभसो ऽवतरद्ध्रुवः\nविभ्राजयद्दश दिशो राकापतिम् इवोदितम्", + "transliteration": "sa dadarśa vimānāgryaṁ\nnabhaso 'vatarad dhruvaḥ\nvibhrājayad daśa diśo\nrākāpatim ivoditam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadarśa", + "meanings": [ + "saw" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimāna", + "meanings": [ + "an airplane" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agryam", + "meanings": [ + "very beautiful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nabhasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from the sky" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avatarat", + "meanings": [ + "descending" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhruvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Dhruva Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhrājayat", + "meanings": [ + "illuminating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daśa", + "meanings": [ + "ten" + ] + }, + { + "word": "diśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "directions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rākā-patim", + "meanings": [ + "the full moon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uditam", + "meanings": [ + "visible." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As soon as the symptoms of his liberation were manifest, he saw a very beautiful airplane coming down from the sky, as if the brilliant full moon were coming down, illuminating all the ten directions.", + "purport": [ + "There are different levels of acquired knowledge—direct knowledge, knowledge received from authorities, transcendental knowledge, knowledge beyond the senses, and finally spiritual knowledge.

The associates of Lord Viṣṇu reminded him that not only his forefathers but everyone else before him was unable to attain Viṣṇuloka, the planet where Lord Viṣṇu resides. This is because everyone within this material world is either a karmī, jñānī, or a yogī, but there are hardly any pure devotees. The transcendental planet known as Viṣṇuloka is especially meant for devotees, not for karmīs, jñānīs or yogīs. Great ṛṣis or demigods can hardly approach Brahmaloka, and, as stated in Bhagavad-gītā, Brahmaloka is not a permanent residence. Lord Brahmā's duration of life is so long that it is difficult to estimate even the duration of one day in his life, and yet Lord Brahmā also dies, as do the residents of his planet. Bhagavad-gītā says, ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino 'rjuna: except for those who go to Viṣṇuloka, everyone is subjected to the four principles of material life, namely birth, death, old age and disease (Bg. 8.16). The Lord says, yad gatvā na nivartante tad dhāma paramaṁ mama: the planet from which, once going, no one returns, is My supreme abode (Bg. 15.6). Dhruva Mahārāja was reminded, \"You are going in our company to that planet from which no one returns to this material world.\" Material scientists are attempting to go to the moon and other planets, but they cannot imagine going to the topmost planet, Brahmaloka, for it is beyond their imagination. By material calculation, traveling at the speed of light it would take forty thousand light-years to reach the topmost planet. By mechanical processes we are unable to reach the topmost planet of this universe, but the process called bhakti-yoga, as executed by Mahārāja Dhruva, can give one the facility not only to reach other planets within this universe, but also to reach beyond this universe to the Viṣṇuloka planets.

Therefore as soon as Dhruva Mahārāja thought of his poor mother, he was assured by the associates of Viṣṇu that Sunīti was also going to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, in another plane. Dhruva Mahārāja had thought that he was going alone to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, leaving behind his mother, which was not very auspicious because people would criticize him for going alone to Vaikuṇṭhaloka and not carrying with him Sunīti, who had given him so much. But Dhruva also considered that he was not personally the Supreme. Therefore, if Kṛṣṇa fulfilled his desires, only then would it be possible.

In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said that everyone comes before the Lord and offers Him exalted prayers, but the Lord does not feel as pleased when offered such prayers as He does when a devotee, out of pure love, chastises Him as a subordinate. The Lord forgets His exalted position and willingly submits to His pure devotee. Dhruva Mahārāja conquered the Supreme Lord because at a very tender age, only five years old, he underwent all the austerities of devotional service. This devotional service was of course executed under the direction of a great sage, Nārada. This is the first principle of devotional service—ādau gurv-āśrayam.

This unalloyed love for Kṛṣṇa can be achieved simply by hearing about Kṛṣṇa. Lord Caitanya accepted this principle—that if one in any position submissively hears the transcendental message spoken by Kṛṣṇa or about Kṛṣṇa, then gradually he develops the quality of unalloyed love, and by that love only he can conquer the unconquerable. The Māyāvādī philosophers aspire to become one with the Supreme Lord, but a devotee surpasses that position. A devotee not only becomes one in quality with the Supreme Lord, but he sometimes becomes the father, mother or master of the Lord. Arjuna also, by his devotional service, made Lord Kṛṣṇa his chariot driver; he ordered the Lord, \"Put my chariot here,\" and the Lord executed his order.

There is the instance of the great King Bharata Mahārāja, who was also a great devotee, but he attained Vaikuṇṭhaloka in three lives. In the first life, although he executed austerities in the forest, he became a victim of too much affection for a small deer, and in his next life he had to take birth as a deer. Although he had a deer's body, he remembered his spiritual position, but he still had to wait until the next life for perfection. In the next life he took birth as Jaḍa Bharata. Of course, in that life he was completely freed from all material entanglement, and he attained perfection and was elevated to Vaikuṇṭhaloka. The lesson from the life of Dhruva Mahārāja is that if one likes, one can attain Vaikuṇṭhaloka in one life, without waiting for many other lives. My Guru Mahārāja, Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī Prabhupāda, used to say that every one of his disciples could attain Vaikuṇṭhaloka in this life, without waiting for another life to execute devotional service.

One should especially seek the society of brāhmaṇas who are elevated to the position of Vaiṣṇavas.

The first birth is made possible by the parent, and the second birth is made possible by the spiritual father and Vedic knowledge.

Simply by academic qualifications a śūdra cannot understand the transcendental science. At the present moment, throughout the entire world the educational system is geared to produce śūdras. A big technologist is no more than a big śūdra. Kalau śūdra-sambhava: in the age of Kali, everyone is a śūdra. Because the whole population of the world consists only of śūdras, there is therefore a decline of spiritual knowledge, and people are unhappy.

Generally persons are interested in worshiping the demigods, especially Lord Śiva, in order to obtain material benefits, but a pure devotee who engages in preaching the principles of devotional service, as prescribed in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, does not need to separately worship the demigods; the demigods are automatically pleased with him and offer all the blessings within their capacity.

His first and foremost duty is to give protection to the citizens from thieves and rogues as well as from ministers who are no better than thieves and rogues.

Consequently, if the king was not very pious or strict, the ministers would become thieves and rogues and exploit the innocent citizens. It is the king's duty to see that there is no increase of thieves and rogues either in the government secretariat or in the departments of public affairs. If a king cannot give protection to citizens from thieves and rogues both in the government service and in public affairs, he has no right to exact taxes from them. In other words, the king or the government that taxes can levy taxes from the citizens only if the king or government is able to give protection to the citizens from thieves and rogues.", + "In the Twelfth Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam there is a description of these thieves and rogues in government service. As stated: prajās te bhakṣayiṣyanti mlecchā rājanya-rūpiṇaḥ (Bhāg. 12.1.42). \"These proud mlecchas [persons who are less than śūdras], representing themselves as kings, will tyrannize their subjects, and their subjects, on the other hand, will cultivate the most vicious practices. Thus practicing evil habits and behaving foolishly, the subjects will be like their rulers.\" The idea is that in the democratic days of Kali-yuga, the general population will fall down to the standard of śūdras. As stated (kalau śūdra-sambhavaḥ), practically the whole population of the world will be śūdra. A śūdra is a fourth-class man who is only fit to work for the three higher social castes. Being fourth-class men, śūdras are not very intelligent. Since the population is fallen in these democratic days, they can only elect a person in their category, but a government cannot run very well when it is run by śūdras. The second class of men, known as kṣatriyas, are especially meant for governing a country under the direction of saintly persons (brāhmaṇas) who are supposed to be very intelligent. In other ages—in Satya-yuga, Tretā-yuga and Dvāpara-yuga—the general populace was not so degraded, and the head of government was never elected. The king was the supreme executive personality, and if he caught any ministers stealing like thieves and rogues, he would at once have them killed or dismissed from service. As it was the duty of the king to kill thieves and rogues, it was similarly his duty to immediately kill dishonest ministers in government service. By such strict vigilance, the king could run the government very well, and the citizens would be happy to have such a king. The conclusion is that unless the king is perfectly able to give protection to the citizens from rogues and thieves, he has no right to levy taxes from the citizens for his own sense gratification. However, if he gives all protection to the citizens and levies taxes on them, he can live very happily and peacefully in this life, and at the end of this life be elevated to the heavenly kingdom or even to the Vaikuṇṭhas, where he would be happy in all respects." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/14/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/14/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..421d72e0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/14/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,96 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 4.14.18", + "devanagari": "यस्य राष्ट्रे पुरे चैव भगवान्यज्ञपूरुषः\nइज्यते स्वेन धर्मेण जनैर्वर्णाश्रमान्वितैः", + "transliteration": "yasya rāṣṭre pure caiva\nbhagavān yajña-pūruṣaḥ\nijyate svena dharmeṇa\njanair varṇāśramānvitaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāṣṭre", + "meanings": [ + "in the state or kingdom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pure", + "meanings": [ + "in the cities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajña-pūruṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who is the enjoyer of all sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ijyate", + "meanings": [ + "is worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svena", + "meanings": [ + "their own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharmeṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by occupation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the people" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṇa-āśrama", + "meanings": [ + "the system of eight social orders" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvitaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who follow." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The king is supposed to be pious in whose state and cities the general populace strictly observes the system of eight social orders of varṇa and āśrama, and where all citizens engage in worshiping the Supreme Personality of Godhead by their particular occupations.", + "purport": [ + "The state's duty and the citizen's duty are very nicely explained in this verse. The activities of the government head, or king, as well as the activities of the citizens, should be so directed that ultimately everyone engages in devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The king, or government head, is supposed to be the representative of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and is therefore supposed to see that things go on nicely and that the citizens are situated in the scientific social order comprised of four varṇas and four āśramas. In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa it is stated that unless people are educated or situated in the scientific social order comprised of four varṇas (brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra) and four āśramas (brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa), society can never be considered real human society, nor can it make any advancement towards the ultimate goal of human life. It is the duty of the government to see that things go on in terms of varṇa and āśrama. As stated herein, bhagavān yajña-pūruṣaḥ—the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, is the yajña-pūruṣa. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā: bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasām (Bg. 5.29). Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate purpose of all sacrifice. He is also the enjoyer of all sacrifices; therefore He is known as yajña-pūruṣa. The word yajña-pūruṣa indicates Lord Viṣṇu or Lord Kṛṣṇa, or any Personality of Godhead in the category of viṣṇu-tattva. In perfect human society, people are situated in the orders of varṇa and āśrama and are engaged in worshiping Lord Viṣṇu by their respective activities. Every citizen engaged in an occupation renders service by the resultant actions of his activities. That is the perfection of life. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā:", + "yataḥ pravṛttir bhūtānāṁ

In other words, the state or the government must not deviate from its duty by declaring that the state is a secular one which has no interest in whether or not the people advance in varṇāśrama-dharma. Today people engaged in government service and people who rule over the citizens have no respect for the varṇāśrama-dharma. They complacently feel that the state is secular.

The conclusion is that without engaging in devotional service, neither the citizens nor the government can be happy in any way. At the present moment neither the king nor the governing body is interested in seeing that the people are engaged in the devotional service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Rather, they are more interested in advancing the machinery of sense gratification. Consequently they are becoming more and more implicated in the complex machinery of the stringent laws of nature. People should be freed from the entanglement of the three modes of material nature, and the only process by which this is possible is surrender unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is advised in Bhagavad-gītā. Unfortunately neither the government nor the people in general have any idea of this; they are simply interested in sense gratification and in being happy in this life. The word nija-śāsane (in his own governmental duty) indicates that both the government and the citizens are responsible for the execution of varṇāśrama-dharma.

Mahāmāyā is an expansion of yogamāyā, and both these māyās are different expressions of the Lord's internal potencies. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord appears through His internal potencies (ātma-māyayā). We should therefore reject the Māyāvāda explanation that the Lord appears in a body given by the external potency, the material energy. The Lord and His incarnation are fully independent and can appear anywhere and everywhere by virtue of the internal potency. Although born out of the so-called dead body of King Vena, King Pṛthu was still an incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead by the Lord's internal potency. The Lord can appear in any family. Sometimes He appears as a fish incarnation (matsya-avatāra), or a boar incarnation (varāha-avatāra). Thus the Lord is completely free and independent to appear anywhere and everywhere by His internal potency. It is stated that Ananta, an incarnation of the Lord who has unlimited mouths, cannot reach the end of His glorification of the Lord, although Ananta has been describing the Lord since time immemorial. So what to speak of demigods like Lord Brahmā, Lord Śiva and others? It is said that the Lord is śiva-viriñci-nutam—always worshiped by demigods like Lord Śiva and Lord Brahmā.

Thus in times of distress the government will artificially inflate the currency by simply printing papers, and this artificially raises the price of commodities, and the general condition of the citizens becomes very precarious. Thus keeping one's money very secretly is an old practice, for we find this practice present even during the reign of Mahārāja Pṛthu. Just as the king has the right to keep his treasury confidential and secret, the people should also keep their individual earnings a secret. There is no fault in such dealings.

These four systems of disciplic succession are still going on. As King Pṛthu has illustrated, one who is serious about receiving transcendental Vedic knowledge must accept a guru, or spiritual master, in one of these four disciplic successions. It is said that unless one accepts a mantra from one of these sampradāyas, the so-called mantra will not act in Kali-yuga. Many sampradāyas have sprung up without authority, and they are misleading the people by giving unauthorized mantras. The rascals of these so-called sampradāyas do not observe the Vedic rules and regulations. Although they are addicted to all kinds of sinful activities, they still offer the people mantras and thus mislead them. Intelligent persons, however, know that such mantras will never be successful, and as such they never patronize such upstart spiritual groups.

Consequently the King knew everything past, present and future. Thus there was no possibility of the earth's cheating him. The earth was accused of hiding the seeds of all herbs and grains, and therefore she is preparing to explain how the seeds of these herbs and grains can be again exposed. The earth knew that the King was very angry with her, and she realized that unless she pacified his anger, there was no possibility of placing a positive program before him. Therefore in the beginning of her speech she very humbly presents herself as a part and parcel of the Supreme Personality of Godhead's body. She submits that the various bodily forms manifest in the physical world are but different parts and parcels of the supreme gigantic body. It is said that the lower planetary systems are parts and parcels of the legs of the Lord, whereas the upper planetary systems are parts and parcels of the Lord's head. The Lord creates this material world by His external energy, but this external energy is in one sense not different from Him. Yet at the same time the Lord is not directly manifest in the external energy but is always situated in the spiritual energy. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (9.10), mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ: material nature is working under the direction of the Lord. Therefore the Lord is not unattached to the external energy, and He is addressed in this verse as guṇa-ātmā, the source of the three modes of material nature. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā:", + "\"The Supersoul is the original source of all senses, yet He is without senses. He is unattached, although He is the maintainer of all living beings. He transcends the modes of nature, and at the same time He is the master of all modes of material nature.\" (Bg. 13.15)", + "Although the Lord is not attached to the external energy, He is nonetheless the master of it. The philosophy of Lord Caitanya, upholding that the Lord is simultaneously one with and different from His creation (acintya-bhedābheda-tattva), is very easily understandable in this connection. The planet earth explains that although the Lord is attached to the external energy, He is nirdhuta; He is completely free from the activities of the external energy. The Lord is always situated in His internal energy. Therefore in this verse it is stated: svarūpānubhavena. The Lord remains completely in His internal potency and yet has full knowledge of the external energy as well as the internal energy, just as His devotee remains always in a transcendental position, keeping himself in the service of the Lord without becoming attached to the material body. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī says that the devotee who is always engaged in the devotional service of the Lord is always liberated, regardless of his material situation. If it is possible for a devotee to remain transcendental, it is certainly possible for the Supreme Personality of Godhead to remain in His internal potency without being attached to the external potency. There should be no difficulty in understanding this situation. Just as a devotee is never bewildered by his material body, the Lord is never bewildered by the external energy of this material world. A devotee is not hampered by the material body, although he is situated in a physical body that runs according to so many material conditions, just as there are five kinds of air functioning within the body, and so many organs—the hands, legs, the tongue, genitals, rectum, etc.—all working differently. The spirit soul, the living entity who is in full knowledge of his position, is always engaged in chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare and is not concerned with the bodily functions. Although the Lord is connected with the material world, He is always situated in His spiritual energy and is always unattached to the functions of the material world. As far as the material body is concerned, there are six \"waves\" or symptomatic material conditions: hunger, thirst, lamentation, bewilderment, old age and death. The liberated soul is never concerned with these six physical interactions.

Since they are rascals and fools, what advice can they give? Still they are passing as learned scholars and professors. In this verse the word amuṣmin is very explicit. It is the duty of everyone to mold his life in such a way that he will have a profitable next life.

All necessities grown on earth—namely fruits, flowers, trees, grains, animals and animal by-products—were created for use in sacrifice for the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu.

All these persons are asat, nondevotees. Nondevotees are also called gṛha-vrata, whereas the devotee is called dhṛta-vrata. According to plans, the misguided conditioned souls who have come to lord it over material nature should be trained to become dhṛta-vrata. This means that they should take a vow to satisfy their senses or enjoy material life only by satisfying the senses of the Supreme Lord. Activities intended to satisfy the senses of the Supreme Lord, Kṛṣṇa, are called kṛṣṇārthe 'khila-ceṣṭāḥ. This indicates that one can attempt all kinds of work, but one should do so to satisfy Kṛṣṇa. This is described in Bhagavad-gītā as yajñārthāt karma. The word yajña indicates Lord Viṣṇu. We should work only for His satisfaction. In modern times (Kali-yuga), however, people have forgotten Viṣṇu altogether, and they conduct their activities for sense gratification. Such people will gradually become poverty-stricken, for they cannot use things which are to be enjoyed by the Supreme Lord for their own sense gratification. If they continue like this, there will ultimately be a state of poverty, and no grains, fruits or flowers will be produced.

In this way agricultural matters are taken care of. When there is sufficient grain production, the general populace eats the grains, and animals like cows, goats and other domestic animals eat the grasses and grains also. According to this arrangement, human beings should perform the sacrifices recommended in the śāstras, and if they do so there will no longer be food scarcity. In Kali-yuga, the only sacrifice recommended is saṅkīrtana-yajña.", + "In this verse there are two significant words: yogena, \"by the approved method,\" and dṛṣṭena, \"as exemplified by the former ācāryas.\" One is mistaken if he thinks that by applying modern machines such as tractors, grains can be produced. If one goes to a desert and uses a tractor, there is still no possibility of producing grains. We may adopt various means, but it is essential to know that the planet earth will stop producing grains if sacrifices are not performed. The earth has already explained that because nondevotees are enjoying the production of food, she has reserved food seeds for the performance of sacrifice. Now, of course, atheists will not believe in this spiritual method of producing grains, but whether they believe or not, the fact remains that we are not independent to produce grain by mechanical means. As far as the approved method is concerned, it is enjoined in the śāstras that intelligent men in this age will take to the saṅkīrtana movement, and by so doing they shall worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Caitanya, whose bodily complexion is golden, and who is always accompanied by His confidential devotees to preach this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement all over the world. In its present condition, the world can only be saved by introducing this saṅkīrtana, this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. As we have learned from the previous verse, one who is not in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is considered a thief. Even though he may be very materially advanced, a thief cannot be placed in a comfortable position. A thief is a thief, and he is punishable. Because people are without Kṛṣṇa consciousness, they have become thieves, and consequently they are being punished by the laws of material nature. No one can check this, not even by introducing so many relief funds and humanitarian institutions.

Because Prahlāda Mahārāja was born in a family of demons, as the son of Hiraṇyakaśipu, by his mercy the demons were and still are able to have their drinks in the form of wine and beer. The word ayaḥ (iron) is very significant. Whereas the nectarean soma was put in a golden pot, the liquors and beers were put in an iron pot. Because the liquor and beer are inferior, they are placed in an iron pot, and because soma-rasa is superior, it is placed in a golden pot." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/18/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/18/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bca7b437 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/18/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 4.18.17", + "devanagari": "गन्धर्वाप्सरसो ऽधुक्षन्पात्रे पद्ममये पयः\nवत्सं विश्वावसुं कृत्वा गान्धर्वं मधु सौभगम्", + "transliteration": "gandharvāpsaraso 'dhukṣan\npātre padmamaye payaḥ\nvatsaṁ viśvāvasuṁ kṛtvā\ngāndharvaṁ madhu saubhagam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "gandharva", + "meanings": [ + "inhabitants of the Gandharva planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apsarasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the inhabitants of the Apsarā planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhukṣan", + "meanings": [ + "milked out" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pātre", + "meanings": [ + "in a pot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padma-maye", + "meanings": [ + "made of a lotus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "payaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "milk" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vatsam", + "meanings": [ + "calf" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvāvasum", + "meanings": [ + "of the name Viśvāvasu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtvā", + "meanings": [ + "making" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gāndharvam", + "meanings": [ + "songs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madhu", + "meanings": [ + "sweet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saubhagam", + "meanings": [ + "beauty." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The inhabitants of Gandharvaloka and Apsaroloka made Viśvāvasu into a calf, and they drew the milk into a lotus flower pot.

Those who are interested in family welfare are called pitṛ-vratāḥ. There is a planet called Pitṛloka, and the predominating deity of that planet is called Aryamā. He is somewhat of a demigod, and by satisfying him one can help ghostly family members develop a gross body. Those who are very sinful and attached to their family, house, village or country do not receive a gross body made of material elements but remain in a subtle body, composed of mind, ego and intelligence. Those who live in such subtle bodies are called ghosts. This ghostly position is very painful because a ghost has intelligence, mind and ego and wants to enjoy material life, but because he doesn't have a gross material body, he can only create disturbances for want of material satisfaction. It is the duty of family members, especially the son, to offer oblations to the demigod Aryamā, or Lord Viṣṇu. From time immemorial in India the son of a dead man goes to Gayā and, at a Viṣṇu temple there, offers oblations for the benefit of his ghostly father. It is not that everyone's father becomes a ghost, but the oblations of piṇḍa are offered to the lotus feet of Lord Viṣṇu so that if a family member happens to become a ghost, he will be favored with a gross body. However, if one is habituated to taking the prasāda of Lord Viṣṇu, there is no chance of his becoming a ghost or anything lower than a human being. In Vedic civilization there is a performance called śrāddha by which food is offered with faith and devotion. If one offers oblations with faith and devotion—either to the lotus feet of Lord Viṣṇu or to His representative in Pitṛloka, Aryamā—one's forefathers will attain material bodies to enjoy whatever material enjoyment is due them.

He was envious due to fear that those who performed great sacrifices for the execution of mystic yoga might occupy his seat. Since no one in this material world can tolerate another's advancement, everyone in the material world is called matsara, envious.

In other words, one who is not free from the contamination of envy cannot advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

One can milk a surabhi cow as often as he likes, and the cow will deliver as much milk as one requires.

Yajña means Lord Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and sacrifice means working for the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In this age, however, it is very difficult to find qualified brāhmaṇas who can perform sacrifices as prescribed in the Vedas. Therefore it is recommended in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyaiḥ) that by performing saṅkīrtana-yajña and by satisfying the yajña-puruṣa, Lord Caitanya, one can derive all the results derived by great sacrifices in the past. King Pṛthu and others derived all the necessities of life from the earthly planet by performing great sacrifices. Now this saṅkīrtana movement has already been started by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. People should take advantage of this great sacrifice and join in the Society's activities; then there will be no scarcity.

Therefore, unless one is very sincere and serious, he should not take up the order of sannyāsa. One should not use this order as a means to cheat the public.

A type of pseudo-sannyāsa was introduced by Indra when he tried to hide himself from the attack of Vijitāśva, the great son of King Pṛthu. Now there are many different types of sannyāsīs.

At the present moment some missionary institutions, without referring to the Vedic rituals, have introduced some sannyāsīs who engage in sinful activities. The sinful activities forbidden by the śāstras are illicit sex, intoxication, meat-eating and gambling. These so-called sannyāsīs indulge in all these activities. They eat meat and flesh, fish, eggs and just about everything. They sometimes drink with the excuse that without alcohol, fish and meat, it is impossible to remain in the cold countries near the Arctic zone. These sannyāsīs introduce all these sinful activities in the name of serving the poor, and consequently poor animals are cut to pieces and go into the bellies of these sannyāsīs. As described in the following verses, such sannyāsīs are pākhaṇḍīs.

A similar stance was taken by Lord Buddha when people were overly engrossed in the animal sacrifices recommended by Vedic instructions. Lord Buddha had to introduce the religion of nonviolence by contradicting the Vedic sacrificial instructions. Actually in the sacrifices the slaughtered animals were given a new life, but people without such powers were taking advantage of such Vedic rituals and unnecessarily killing poor animals. Therefore Lord Buddha had to deny the authority of the Vedas for the time being. One should not perform sacrifices that will induce reversed orders. It is better to stop such sacrifices.", + "As we have repeatedly explained, due to a lack of qualified brahminical priests in Kali-yuga, it is not possible to perform the ritualistic ceremonies recommended in the Vedas. Consequently the śāstras instruct us to perform the saṅkīrtana-yajña. By the saṅkīrtana sacrifice, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, in His form of Lord Caitanya, will be satisfied and worshiped. The entire purpose of performing sacrifices is to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu. Lord Viṣṇu or Lord Kṛṣṇa is present in His form of Lord Caitanya; therefore people who are intelligent should try to satisfy Him by performing saṅkīrtana-yajña. This is the easiest way to satisfy Lord Viṣṇu in this age. People should take advantage of the injunctions in different śāstras concerning sacrifices in this age and not create unnecessary disturbances during the sinful age of Kali. In Kali-yuga men all over the world are very expert in opening slaughterhouses for killing animals, which they eat. If the old ritualistic ceremonies were observed, people would be encouraged to kill more and more animals. In Calcutta there are many butcher shops which keep a deity of the goddess Kālī, and animal eaters think it proper to purchase animal flesh from such shops in hope that they are eating the remnants of food offered to goddess Kālī. They do not know that goddess Kālī never accepts nonvegetarian food because she is the chaste wife of Lord Śiva.

The Paramātmā is always distinguished from the embodied soul as well as the material world. Therefore He has been described as para. That para, or Supreme Personality of Godhead, is eka, meaning one. The Lord is one, whereas the conditioned souls embodied within the material world exist in many varieties of form. There are demigods, human beings, animals, trees, birds, bees and so forth.

The living entities, who are many and who are entangled in this material world, are not pure. However, the Supreme Personality of Godhead is pure and detached. Due to being covered by the material body, the living entities are not self-effulgent, but the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Paramātmā, is self-effulgent.

The Supreme Personality of Godhead, not being covered by a material body, is the witness of all the activities of the living entity. But both of them, the living entity and the Paramātmā, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, are ātmā, or spirit. They are one in quality, yet they are different in so many ways, especially in regard to the six opulences the Supreme Personality of Godhead has in full.

Devotional service is very simple, and anyone can adopt it. Let one remain what he is; he need only install the Deity of the Supreme Lord in his house. The Deity may be Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa or Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa (there are many other forms of the Lord). In this way a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya or śūdra can worship the Deity with the results of his honest labor.

The body is changing at every moment, but the soul is fixed; therefore the soul is called kūṭastham. The change of body is enacted by the reactions of the three modes of nature. One who has understood the fixed position of the soul should not be disturbed by the incoming and outgoing interactions of the modes of material nature in the form of happiness and distress. In Bhagavad-gītā also Lord Kṛṣṇa recommends that since happiness and distress come and go due to the interaction of the modes of nature on the body, one should not be disturbed by such external movements. Even though one is sometimes absorbed in such external movements, he has to learn to tolerate them. The living entity should be always indifferent to the action and reaction of the external body.", + "Lord Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā that the body made of the gross physical elements (earth, water, fire, air and sky) and the subtle elements (mind, intelligence and ego) is completely different from the soul proper. One should therefore not be disturbed by the action and reaction of these eight gross and subtle material elements. The practical process to attain this stage of indifference is to execute devotional service. Only one who constantly engages in devotional service twenty-four hours a day can be indifferent to the action and reaction of the external body. When a man is absorbed in a particular thought, he does not hear or see any external activities, even though they are enacted in his presence. Similarly, those who are fully absorbed in devotional service do not care what is going on with the external body. That status is called samādhi.

Jñānīs try to get out of entanglement by philosophical speculation, but they have no standing in the liberated position. Because they do not take shelter under the lotus feet of the Lord, they fall down from the exalted position of Brahman realization. Yogīs also have a bodily concept of life—they think that they can achieve something spiritual by exercising the body through dhāraṇā, āsana, prāṇāyāma, etc. A devotee's position is always transcendental because of his intimate relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

The Lord says, ācāryaṁ māṁ vijānīyān nāvamanyeta karhicit: one should not treat the spiritual master as an ordinary human being because he is the substitute for the Supreme Personality of Godhead (Bhāg. 11.17.27).

The brāhmaṇa must do his duty properly, and the kṣatriya, the vaiśya and even the śūdra must do the same.

A secular state does not necessitate a king or head of state who is indifferent to the activities of the prajās. In the modern state the government has many rules and regulations for conducting the duties of the prajās, but the government neglects to see that the citizens advance in spiritual knowledge.

As soon as there is complete eradication of sinful activities in the state, then there will be no more war, pestilence, famine or natural disturbances. This was actually prevailing during the reign of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. If a king or head of the government is able to induce the citizens to become Kṛṣṇa conscious, then he is worthy to rule over the mass of people; otherwise, he has no right to levy taxes. If the king looks after the spiritual interests of the citizens, he can levy taxes without difficulties.

Since the leaders of society have a poor fund of knowledge and the citizens in general are rogues and thieves, there cannot be an auspicious situation for human society.

Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu advises, therefore, that one does not have to change his position. One simply has to hear from the perfect source (this is called paramparā) and follow the principles for practical application in life; thus one can attain the highest perfection of life, liberation, and go back home, back to Godhead. In other words, the change required is a change in consciousness, not in the body. Unfortunately, in this fallen age, people are concerned with the body, not with the soul. They have invented so many \"isms\" pertaining to the body only, not to the soul.", + "In the modern age of democracy there are so many government representatives voting for legislation. Every day they bring out a new law. But because these laws are only mental concoctions manufactured by inexperienced conditioned souls, they cannot give relief to human society. Formerly, although the kings were autocrats, they strictly followed the principles laid down by great sages and saintly persons. There were no mistakes in ruling over the country, and everything went perfectly. The citizens were completely pious, the king levied taxes legitimately, and therefore the situation was very happy. At the present moment the so-called executive heads are more or less selected from materially ambitious persons who simply look after their own personal interests; they have no knowledge of the śāstras. In other words, the executive heads are fools and rascals in the strict sense of the terms, and the people in general are śūdras. This combination of fools and rascals and śūdras cannot bring about peace and prosperity in this world. Therefore we find periodic upheavals in society in the forms of battles, communal riots and fratricidal quarrels. Under these circumstances, not only are the leaders unable to lead the people toward liberation, but they cannot even give them peace of mind. In Bhagavad-gītā it is stated that anyone who lives on concocted ideas, without reference to the śāstras, never becomes successful and does not attain happiness or liberation after death." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..52947df2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 4.20.16", + "devanagari": "वरं च मत्कंचन मानवेन्द्र वृणीष्व ते ऽहं गुणशीलयन्त्रितः\nनाहं मखैर्वै सुलभस्तपोभिर्योगेन वा यत्समचित्तवर्ती", + "transliteration": "varaṁ ca mat kañcana mānavendra\nvṛṇīṣva te 'haṁ guṇa-śīla-yantritaḥ\nnāhaṁ makhair vai sulabhas tapobhir\nyogena vā yat sama-citta-vartī", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "varam", + "meanings": [ + "benediction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat", + "meanings": [ + "from Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kañcana", + "meanings": [ + "whatever you like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mānava-indra", + "meanings": [ + "O chief of human beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛṇīṣva", + "meanings": [ + "please request" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-śīla", + "meanings": [ + "by elevated qualities and excellent behavior" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yantritaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being captivated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "makhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-labhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "easily obtained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapobhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by austerities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogena", + "meanings": [ + "by practice of mystic yoga" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "because of which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sama-citta", + "meanings": [ + "in one who is equipoised" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vartī", + "meanings": [ + "being situated." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear King, I am very captivated by your elevated qualities and excellent behavior, and thus I am very favorably inclined toward you.

We have recently experienced a war between India and Pakistan. Within fourteen days there have been immense losses of men and money, and there have been disturbances to the entire world.

He specifically mentioned that the glories of the Lord should emanate from the mouths of pure devotees who speak from the cores of their hearts. It is stated in the beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, śuka-mukhād amṛta-drava-saṁyutam: the nectar of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam became more relishable because it emanated from the mouth of Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī (Bhāg. 1.1.3). One might think that these glories of the Lord can be heard from anywhere, from the mouths of either devotees or nondevotees, but here it is specifically mentioned that the glories of the Lord must emanate from the mouths of pure devotees. Śrī Sanātana Gosvāmī has strictly prohibited hearing from the mouth of a nondevotee. There are many professional reciters of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam who speak the narrations very ornamentally, but a pure devotee does not like to hear from them because such glorification of the Lord is simply a vibration of material sound.

But still they cannot completely finish enumerating the glories of the Lord. Pṛthu Mahārāja therefore wanted innumerable ears, as Rūpa Gosvāmī also desired to have millions of ears and millions of tongues to chant and hear the glorification of the Lord. In other words, if our ears are always engaged in hearing the glorification of the Lord, there will be no scope for hearing the Māyāvāda philosophy, which is doom to spiritual progress. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said that if anyone hears from a Māyāvādī philosopher preaching about the activities of the Lord, even if it is a description from the Vedic literature, he is ultimately doomed.

In our material existence, under the influence of illusory māyā, we have almost forgotten our eternal relationship with the Lord, exactly like a man sleeping very deeply who forgets his duties. In the Vedas it is said that every one of us is sleeping under the influence of māyā. We must get up from this slumber and engage in the right service, for thus we can properly utilize the facility of this human form of life. As expressed in a song by Ṭhākura Bhaktivinoda, Lord Caitanya says, \"jīva jāga, jīva jāga.\" The Lord asks every sleeping living entity to get up and engage in devotional service so that his mission in this human form of life may be fulfilled. This awakening voice comes through the mouth of a pure devotee.", + "A pure devotee always engages in the service of the Lord, taking shelter of His lotus feet, and therefore he has a direct connection with the saffron mercy particles that are strewn over the lotus feet of the Lord.

Every one of us is kuyogī because we have engaged in the service of this material world, forgetting our eternal relationship with the Lord as His eternal loving servants. It is our duty to rise from the kuyoga platform to become suyogīs, perfect mystics. The process of hearing from a pure devotee is recommended in all Vedic scriptures, especially by Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu. One may stay in his position of life—it does not matter what it is—but if one hears from the mouth of a pure devotee, he gradually comes to the understanding of his relationship with the Lord and thus engages in His loving service, and his life becomes completely perfect.

In prehistoric days all of the members of the Āryan family followed the Vedic principles, and therefore they became spiritually advanced.

History reports that the Americans and Europeans proved their capability when they were anxious to expand colonization, but at the present time, being contaminated by the advancement of material science, their sons and grandsons are turning into reprobates. This is due to their having lost their original spiritual culture, which is Vedic civilization. Presently these descendants of the Āryan family are taking this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement very seriously. Others also who are associating with them and hearing the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra from the lips of pure devotees are also becoming captivated by the transcendental vibration.

The impersonalist may ask why one should bother chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra continually for so many years instead of stopping and trying for kaivalya, liberation, or merging into the existence of the Lord. In answer, Mahārāja Pṛthu maintains that the attraction of this chanting is so great that one cannot give up the process unless he is an animal. This is the case even if one comes in contact with this transcendental vibration by chance. Pṛthu Mahārāja is very emphatic in this connection—only an animal can give up the practice of chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa.

Puruṣa means the enjoyer, and uttama means the best. There are different kinds of puruṣas or enjoyers within the universe. Generally they can be divided into three classes—those who are conditioned, those who are liberated, and those who are eternal. In the Vedas the Supreme Lord is called the supreme eternal of all eternals (nityo nityānām). Both the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the living entities are eternal. The supreme eternals are the viṣṇu-tattva or Lord Viṣṇu and His expansions. So nitya refers to the Personality of Godhead beginning from Kṛṣṇa up to Mahā-Viṣṇu, Nārāyaṇa and other expansions of Lord Kṛṣṇa. As stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā (rāmādi-mūrtiṣu), there are millions and trillions of expansions of Lord Viṣṇu as Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Varāha and other incarnations. All of them are called eternals.", + "The word mukta refers to the living entities who never come within this material world. The baddhas are those living entities who are almost eternally living within this material world. The baddhas are struggling very hard within this material world to become free from the threefold miseries of material nature and to enjoy life, whereas the muktas are already liberated. They never come into this material world. Lord Viṣṇu is the master of this material world, and there is no question of His being controlled by material nature. Consequently, Lord Viṣṇu is addressed here as pūruṣottama, the best of all living entities—namely viṣṇu-tattvas and jīva-tattvas. It is a great offense, therefore, to compare Lord Viṣṇu and the jīva-tattva or consider them on an equal level. The Māyāvādī philosophers equalize the jīvas and the Supreme Lord and consider them to be one, but that is the greatest offense to the lotus feet of Lord Viṣṇu.", + "Here in the material world we have practical experience that a superior person is worshiped by an inferior one. Similarly, pūruṣottama, the greatest, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa or Lord Viṣṇu, is always worshiped by others. Pṛthu Mahārāja therefore decided to engage in the service of the lotus feet of Lord Viṣṇu. Pṛthu Mahārāja is considered to be an incarnation of Lord Viṣṇu, but he is called a śaktyāveśa incarnation. Another significant word in this verse is guṇālayam, which refers to Viṣṇu as the reservoir of all transcendental qualities. The Māyāvādī philosophers take the Absolute Truth to be nirguṇa (without qualities), in accordance with the impersonalistic view, but actually the Lord is the reservoir of all good qualities. One of the most important qualities of the Lord is His inclination to His devotees, called bhakta-vatsala. The devotees are always very much inclined to render service unto the lotus feet of the Lord, and the Lord is also very much inclined to accept loving service from His devotees. In that exchange of service there are many transcendental transactions, which are called transcendental qualitative activities. Some of the transcendental qualities of the Lord are that He is omniscient, omnipresent, all-pervasive, all-powerful, the cause of all causes, the Absolute Truth, the reservoir of all pleasures, the reservoir of all knowledge, the all-auspicious and so on.", + "Pṛthu Mahārāja desired to serve the Lord with the goddess of fortune, but this desire does not mean that he was situated on the platform of mādhurya-rasa. The goddess of fortune is engaged in the service of the Lord in the mādhurya-rasa of conjugal love. Although her position is on the chest of the Lord, the goddess of fortune, in her position as a devotee, takes pleasure in serving the lotus feet of the Lord. Pṛthu Mahārāja was thinking only of the lotus feet of the Lord because he is on the platform of dāsya-rasa or servitorship of the Lord. From the next verse we learn that Pṛthu Mahārāja was thinking of the goddess of fortune as the universal mother, jagan-mātā. Consequently there was no question of his competing with her on the platform of mādhurya-rasa. Nonetheless he feared that she might take offense at his engaging in the service of the Lord. This suggests that in the absolute world there is sometimes competition between servitors in the service of the Lord, but such competition is without malice. In the Vaikuṇṭha worlds if a devotee excels in the service of the Lord, others do not become envious of his excellent service but rather aspire to come to the platform of that service." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/28.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/28.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c8138458 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/28.json @@ -0,0 +1,130 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 28, + "reference": "SB 4.20.28", + "devanagari": "जगज्जनन्यां जगदीश वैशसं स्याद् एव यत्कर्मणि नः समीहितम्\nकरोषि फल्ग्व् अप्य् उरु दीनवत्सलः स्व एव धिष्ण्ये ऽभिरतस्य किं तया", + "transliteration": "jagaj-jananyāṁ jagad-īśa vaiśasaṁ\nsyād eva yat-karmaṇi naḥ samīhitam\nkaroṣi phalgv apy uru dīna-vatsalaḥ\nsva eva dhiṣṇye 'bhiratasya kiṁ tayā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "jagat-jananyām", + "meanings": [ + "in the mother of the universe (Lakṣmī)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagat-īśa", + "meanings": [ + "O Lord of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiśasam", + "meanings": [ + "anger" + ] + }, + { + "word": "syāt", + "meanings": [ + "may arise" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat-karmaṇi", + "meanings": [ + "in whose activity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samīhitam", + "meanings": [ + "desire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karoṣi", + "meanings": [ + "You consider" + ] + }, + { + "word": "phalgu", + "meanings": [ + "insignificant service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uru", + "meanings": [ + "very great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dīna-vatsalaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "favorably inclined to the poor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sve", + "meanings": [ + "own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiṣṇye", + "meanings": [ + "in Your opulence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiratasya", + "meanings": [ + "of one who is fully satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what need is there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tayā", + "meanings": [ + "with her." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Lord of the universe, the goddess of fortune Lakṣmī is the mother of the universe, and yet I think that she may be angry with me because of my intruding upon her service and acting on that very platform to which she is so much attached.

Therefore even though she becomes angry, I think that there is no harm for You, because You are so self-sufficient that You can do without her.", + "purport": [ + "Mother Lakṣmījī, the goddess of fortune, is well known for always massaging the lotus feet of Lord Nārāyaṇa. She is an ideal wife because she takes care of Lord Nārāyaṇa in every detail. She not only takes care of His lotus feet but of the household affairs of the Lord as well. She cooks nice foods for Him, fans Him while He eats, smoothes sandalwood pulp on His face, and sets His bed and sitting places in the right order. In this way she is always engaged in the service of the Lord, and there is hardly any opportunity for any other devotee to intrude upon His daily activities. Pṛthu Mahārāja was therefore almost certain that his intrusion into the service of the goddess of fortune would irritate her and cause her to become angry with him. But why should mother Lakṣmī, the mother of the universe, be angry with an insignificant devotee like Pṛthu Mahārāja? All this was not very likely. Yet Pṛthu Mahārāja, just for his personal protection, appealed to the Lord to take his part. Pṛthu Mahārāja was engaged in performing the ordinary Vedic rituals and sacrifices according to karma-kāṇḍa, or fruitive activities, but the Lord, being so kind and magnanimous, was ready to award Pṛthu Mahārāja the highest perfectional stage of life, namely devotional service.", + "When a person performs Vedic rituals and sacrifices, he does so to elevate himself to the heavenly planets. No one can become qualified to go back home, back to Godhead, by means of such sacrifices. But the Lord is so kind that He accepts a little insignificant service, and therefore it is stated in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa that by following the principles of varṇāśrama-dharma one can satisfy the Supreme Lord. When the Lord is satisfied, the performer of sacrifices is elevated to the platform of devotional service. Pṛthu Mahārāja therefore expected that his insignificant service to the Lord would be accepted by Him as being greater than that of Lakṣmījī. The goddess of fortune is called cañcalā (restless) because she is very restless and is always coming and going. So Pṛthu Mahārāja indicates that even though she might go away out of anger, there would be no harm for Lord Viṣṇu, because He is self-sufficient and can do anything and everything without the help of Lakṣmījī. For example, when Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu begot Lord Brahmā from His navel, He didn't take any help from Lakṣmī, who was just sitting by Him and massaging His lotus feet. Generally if a son is to be begotten, the husband impregnates the wife, and in due course of time the son is born. But in the case of Lord Brahmā's birth, Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu did not impregnate Lakṣmījī. Being self-sufficient, the Lord begot Brahmā from His own navel.

If liberation were the end in itself, there would be no question of a liberated person's taking to devotional service. In other words, the transcendental bliss derived from self-realization, known as ātmānanda, is very insignificant in the presence of the bliss derived from devotional service to the lotus feet of the Lord.

In the Vedas there are three categories of activities known as karma-kāṇḍa, fruitive activities, jñāna-kāṇḍa, philosophical research, and upāsanā-kāṇḍa, worship of different demigods for receiving material benefits. Those who are engaged in karma-kāṇḍa and jñāna-kāṇḍa are doomed in the sense that everyone is doomed who is entrapped by this material body, whether it is a body of a demigod, a king, a lower animal or whatever. The sufferings of the threefold miseries of material nature are the same for all. Cultivation of knowledge to understand one's spiritual position is also, to a certain extent, a waste of time. Because he is an eternal part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, the immediate business of the living entity is to engage himself in devotional service. Pṛthu Mahārāja therefore says that the allurement of material benedictions is another trap to entangle one in this material world.

In other words, the offering of benedictions in the form of material profit is never auspicious for the devotee. The statements of the Vedas which offer elevation to heavenly planets in exchange for great sacrifices are simply bewildering. Therefore in Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says: yām imāṁ puṣpitāṁ vācaṁ pravadanty avipaścitaḥ (Bg. 2.42).

The followers of Vedic wisdom are fully aware of various planets inhabited by varieties of living entities such as the demigods, the sages, the Pitās, the Gandharvas, the Pannagas, the Kinnaras, the Cāraṇas, the Siddhas and the Apsarās. The Vedas give information that in all planets—not only within this material sky but also in the spiritual sky—there are varieties of living entities. Although all these living entities are of one spiritual nature, in quality the same as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they have varieties of bodies due to the embodiment of the spirit soul by the eight material elements, namely earth, water, fire, air, sky, mind, intelligence and false ego. In the spiritual world, however, there is no such distinction between the body and the embodied. In the material world, distinctive features are manifested in different types of bodies in the various planets. We have full information from the Vedic literature that in each and every planet, both material and spiritual, there are living entities of varied intelligence. The earth is one of the planets of the Bhūrloka planetary system. There are six planetary systems above Bhūrloka and seven planetary systems below it. Therefore the entire universe is known as caturdaśa-bhuvana, indicating that it has fourteen different planetary systems. Beyond the planetary systems in the material sky, there is another sky, which is known as paravyoma, or the spiritual sky, where there are spiritual planets. The inhabitants of those planets engage in varieties of loving service unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, which include different rasas or relationships known as dāsya-rasa, sakhya-rasa, vātsalya-rasa, mādhurya-rasa and, above all, parakīya-rasa. This parakīya-rasa, or paramour love, is prevalent in Kṛṣṇaloka, where Lord Kṛṣṇa lives. This planet is also called Goloka Vṛndāvana, and although Lord Kṛṣṇa lives there perpetually, He also expands Himself in millions and trillions of forms. In one of such forms He appears on this material planet in a particular place known as Vṛndāvana-dhāma, where He displays His original pastimes of Goloka Vṛndāvana-dhāma in the spiritual sky in order to attract the conditioned souls back home, back to Godhead." + ], + "verse_end": 36 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4c25dd14 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/20/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 4.20.37", + "devanagari": "भगवान् अपि राजर्षेः सोपाध्यायस्य चाच्युतः\nहरन्न् इव मनो ऽमुष्य स्वधाम प्रत्यपद्यत", + "transliteration": "bhagavān api rājarṣeḥ\nsopādhyāyasya cācyutaḥ\nharann iva mano 'muṣya\nsva-dhāma pratyapadyata", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāja-ṛṣeḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the saintly King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-upādhyāyasya", + "meanings": [ + "along with all the priests" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acyutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the infallible Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haran", + "meanings": [ + "captivating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amuṣya", + "meanings": [ + "of him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-dhāma", + "meanings": [ + "to His abode" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyapadyata", + "meanings": [ + "returned." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The infallible Supreme Personality of Godhead, having captivated the minds of the King and the priests who were present, returned to His abode in the spiritual sky.", + "purport": [ + "Because the Supreme Personality of Godhead is all-spiritual, He can descend from the spiritual sky without changing His body, and thus He is known as acyuta, or infallible.

Pṛthu Mahārāja was not only a śaktyāveśa-avatāra but also a great devotee. A devotee is not subjected to the reactions resulting from past deeds.

The words ārabdhān eva mean \"as if achieved by past deeds,\" but in the case of Pṛthu Mahārāja there was no question of reaction to past deeds, and thus the word eva is used here to indicate comparison to ordinary persons. In Bhagavad-gītā the Lord says, avajānanti māṁ mūḍhāḥ. This means that sometimes people misunderstand an incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead to be an ordinary man. The Supreme Godhead, His incarnations or His devotees may pose themselves as ordinary men, but they are never to be considered as such. Nor should an ordinary man not supported by authorized statements of the śāstras and ācāryas be accepted as an incarnation or devotee. By the evidence of śāstra, Sanātana Gosvāmī detected Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu to be a direct incarnation of Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although Lord Caitanya never disclosed the fact.

Acyuta refers to one who does not fall because He is never influenced by the modes of material nature. When a living entity falls down to the material world from his original position, he becomes cyuta, which means that he forgets his relationship with acyuta. Actually every living entity is a part and parcel or a son of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. When influenced by the modes of material nature, a living entity forgets this relationship and thinks in terms of different species of life; but when he again comes to his original consciousness, he does not observe such bodily designations.

According to the Vedic system, the king is considered a representative of Godhead and is offered respects by the citizens as God in the human form of life. Actually, according to Vedic information, the Supreme Lord maintains all living entities, and especially human beings, to elevate them to the highest perfection. After many, many births in lower species, when a living entity evolves to the human form of life and in particular to the civilized human form of life, his society must be divided into four gradations, as ordered by the Supreme Personality of Godhead in Bhagavad-gītā (cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭam, etc.). The four social orders—the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras—are natural divisions of human society, and, as declared by Pṛthu Mahārāja, every man in his respective social order must have proper employment for his livelihood. It is the duty of the king or the government to insure that the people observe the social order and that they are also employed in their respective occupational duties. In modern times, since the protection of the government or the king has been withdrawn, social order has practically collapsed. No one knows who is a brāhmaṇa, who is a kṣatriya, who is a vaiśya or who is a śūdra, and people claim to belong to a particular social order by birthright only. It is the duty of the government to reestablish social order in terms of occupational duties and the modes of material nature, for that will make the entire world population actually civilized. If it does not observe the institutional functions of the four social orders, human society is no better than animal society in which there is never tranquillity, peace and prosperity but only chaos and confusion.

Therefore Pṛthu Mahārāja guaranteed protection for prajānām—all living entities who took birth in his kingdom. Prajā refers not only to human beings but also to animals, trees and every other living entity. It is the duty of the king to give all living entities protection and food. The fools and rascals of modern society have no knowledge of the extent of the responsibility of the government. Animals are also citizens of the land in which they happen to be born, and they also have the right to continue their existence at the cost of the Supreme Lord.

Evidence from the Vedic literature should be accepted as final authority. In the Vedic literature there is much information, and of course there is information about the execution of a king's duty. A responsible king who executes his appointed duty by giving proper protection to all living entities on his planet is promoted to the heavenly planetary system. This is also dependent upon the pleasure of the Supreme Lord. It is not that if one executes his duty properly he is automatically promoted, for promotion depends upon the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It must ultimately be concluded that one can achieve the desired result of his activities upon satisfying the Supreme Lord.

The word kāma-sandohāḥ means \"achievement of the desired result.\" Everyone desires to achieve the ultimate goal of life, but in modern civilization the great scientists think that man's life has no plan. This gross ignorance is very dangerous and makes civilization very risky. People do not know the laws of nature, which are the rulings of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Because they are atheists of the first order, they have no faith in the existence of God and His rulings and therefore do not know how nature is working. This gross ignorance of the mass of people, including even the so-called scientists and philosophers, makes life a risky situation in which human beings do not know whether they are making progress in life.

Since there was a great assembly in the arena of sacrifice, there were different types of men present, but he was especially interested in speaking to those who were not atheists. It has already been explained in the previous verses that Pṛthu Mahārāja advised the citizens to become adhokṣaja-dhiyaḥ, which means God conscious or Kṛṣṇa conscious, and in this verse he specifically presents the authority of śāstra, even though his father was a number one atheist who did not abide by the injunctions mentioned in the Vedic śāstras, who practically stopped all sacrificial performances, and who so disgusted the brāhmaṇas that they not only dethroned him but cursed and killed him. Atheistic men do not believe in the existence of God, and thus they understand everything which is happening in our daily affairs to be due to physical arrangement and chance. Atheists believe in the atheistic Sāṅkhya philosophy of the combination of prakṛti and puruṣa. They believe only in matter and hold that matter under certain conditions of amalgamation gives rise to the living force, which then appears as puruṣa, the enjoyer; then, by a combination of matter and the living force, the many varieties of material manifestation come into existence. Nor do atheists believe in the injunctions of the Vedas. According to them, all the Vedic injunctions are simply theories that have no practical application in life. Taking all this into consideration, Pṛthu Mahārāja suggested that theistic men will solidly reject the views of the atheists on the grounds that there cannot be many varieties of existence without the plan of a superior intelligence. Atheists very vaguely explain that these varieties of existence occur simply by chance, but the theists who believe in the injunctions of the Vedas must reach all their conclusions under the direction of the Vedas.", + "In the Viṣṇu Purāṇa it is said that the entire varṇāśrama institution is meant to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The rules and regulations set up for the execution of the duties of brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras or brahmacārīs, gṛhasthas, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs are all meant to satisfy the Supreme Lord. At the present moment, although the so-called brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras have lost their original culture, they claim to be brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras by birthright. Yet they have rejected the proposition that such social and spiritual orders are especially meant for worship of Lord Viṣṇu. The dangerous Māyāvāda theory set forth by Śaṅkarācārya—that God is impersonal—does not tally with the injunctions of the Vedas. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu therefore described the Māyāvādī philosophers as the greatest offenders against the Personality of Godhead. According to the Vedic system, one who does not abide by the orders of the Vedas is called a nāstika, or atheist. When Lord Buddha preached his theory of nonviolence, he was obliged to deny the authority of the Vedas, and for this reason he was considered by the followers of the Vedas to be a nāstika. But although Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu very clearly enunciated that the followers of Lord Buddha's philosophy are nāstikas or atheists because of their denial of the authority of the Vedas, He considered the Śaṅkarites, who wanted to establish Vedic authority by trickery and who actually followed the Māyāvāda philosophy of Buddha's school, to be more dangerous than the Buddhists themselves. The Śaṅkarite philosophers' theory that we have to imagine a shape of God is more dangerous than denial of the existence of God. Notwithstanding all the philosophical theorizing by atheists or Māyāvādīs, the followers of Kṛṣṇa consciousness rigidly live according to the injunctions given in Bhagavad-gītā, which is accepted as the essence of all Vedic scripture. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said:", + "yataḥ pravṛttir bhūtānāṁ yena sarvam idaṁ tatam
sva-karmaṇā tam abhyarcya siddhiṁ vindati mānavaḥ
(Bg. 18.46)", + "This means that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the original source of everything, as described in the Vedānta-sūtra (janmādy asya yataḥ). The Lord Himself also confirms in Bhagavad-gītā, ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo: \"I am the origin of everything.\" The Supreme Personality of Godhead is the original source of all emanations, and at the same time, as Paramātmā, He is spread all over existence. The Absolute Truth is therefore the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and every living being is meant to satisfy the Supreme Godhead by performing his respective duty (sva-karmaṇā tam abhyarcya). Mahārāja Pṛthu wanted to introduce this formula amongst his citizens.", + "The most important point in human civilization is that while one engages in different occupational duties, he must try to satisfy the Supreme Lord by the execution of such duties. That is the highest perfection of life. Svanuṣṭhitasya dharmasya saṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam: by discharging one's prescribed duty, one can become very successful in life if he simply satisfies the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The vivid example is Arjuna. He was a kṣatriya, his duty was to fight, and by executing his prescribed duty he satisfied the Supreme Lord and therefore became perfect. Everyone should follow this principle. The atheists who do not are condemned in Bhagavad-gītā, in the Sixteenth Chapter by the following statement: tān ahaṁ dviṣataḥ krūrān saṁsāreṣu narādhamān (Bg. 16.19). In this verse it is clearly said that persons who are envious of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are the lowest of mankind and are very mischievous. Under the regulative principles of the Supreme, such mischievous persons are thrown into the darkest region of material existence and are born of asuras or atheists. Birth after birth, such asuras go still further down, finally to animal forms like those of tigers or similar ferocious beasts. Thus for millions of years they have to remain in darkness without knowledge of Kṛṣṇa.", + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is known as Puruṣottama, or the best of all living entities. He is a person like all other living entities, but He is the leader or the best of all living beings. That is stated in the Vedas also. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām. He is the chief of all eternals, the chief of all living entities, and He is complete and full. He has no need to derive benefit by interfering with the affairs of other living entities, but because He is the maintainer of all, He has the right to bring them to the proper standard so that all living entities may become happy. As a father wants all of his children to become happy under his direction, similarly, God, or Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has the right to see that all living entities are happy. There is no possibility of becoming happy within this material world. The father and the sons are eternal, but if a living entity does not come to the platform of his eternal life of bliss and knowledge, there is no question of happiness. Although Puruṣottama, the best of all living entities, has no benefit to derive from the common living entities, He does have the right to discriminate between their right and wrong ways. The right way is the path of activities meant to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as we have already discussed (svanuṣṭhitasya dharmasya saṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam). A living entity may engage in any occupational duty, but if he wants to have perfection in his duties, he must satisfy the Supreme Lord. As such, one who pleases Him gets better facilities for living, but one who displeases Him gets involved in undesirable situations.", + "It is therefore concluded that there are two kinds of duties—mundane duty and duty performed for the sake of yajña or sacrifice (yajñārthāt karma). Any karma or activity one performs which is not for the purpose of yajña is a cause of bondage. Yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ: \"Work done as a sacrifice for Viṣṇu has to be performed, otherwise work binds one to this material world.\" (Bg. 3.9) Karma-bandhanaḥ, or the bondage of karma, is administered under the regulations of the stringent laws of material nature. Material existence is a struggle to conquer the impediments put forth by material nature. The asuras are always fighting to overcome these impediments, and by the illusory power of material nature the foolish living entities work very hard within this material world and take this to be happiness. This is called māyā. In that hard struggle for existence, they deny the existence of the supreme authority, Puruṣottama, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "In order to regulate the activities of the living entities, God has given us codes, just as a king gives codes of law in a state, and whoever breaks the law is punished. Similarly, the Lord has given the infallible knowledge of the Vedas, which are not contaminated by the four defects of human life—namely, the tendency to commit mistakes, to be illusioned, to cheat and to have imperfect senses. If we do not take direction from the Vedas but act whimsically according to our own choice, we are sure to be punished by the laws of the Lord, who offers different types of bodies in the 8,400,000 species of forms. Material existence, or the sense gratification process, is conducted according to the type of body we are given by prakṛti, or material nature. As such, there must be divisions of pious and impious activities (puṇya and pāpa). In Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly stated:", + "yeṣāṁ tv anta-gataṁ pāpaṁ janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām
te dvandva-moha-nirmuktā bhajante māṁ dṛḍha-vratāḥ", + "\"One who has completely surpassed the resultant activities of the impious path of life (this is possible only when one engages exclusively in pious activities) can understand his eternal relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Thus one engages in His transcendental loving service.\" (Bg. 7.28) This life of engaging always in the loving service of the Lord is called adhokṣaja-dhiyaḥ, or a life of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, which King Pṛthu meant his citizens to follow.", + "The different varieties of life and of material existence do not come about by chance and necessity; they are different arrangements made by the Supreme Lord in terms of the pious and impious activities of the living entities. By performing pious activities one can take birth in a good family in a good nation, one can get a beautiful body or can become very well educated or very rich. We see, therefore, that in different places and in different planets there are different standards of life, bodily features and educational statuses, all awarded by the Supreme Personality of Godhead according to pious or impious activities. Varieties of life, therefore, develop not by chance but by prearrangement. There is a plan, which is already outlined in the Vedic knowledge. One has to take advantage of this knowledge and mold his life in such a way that at the end, especially in the human form of life, he may go back home, back to Godhead, by practicing Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "The theory of chance can best be explained in the Vedic literature by the words ajñāta-sukṛti, which refer to pious activities performed without the actor's knowledge. But these are also planned. For example, Kṛṣṇa comes like an ordinary human being, He comes as a devotee like Lord Caitanya, or He sends His representative, the spiritual master or pure devotee. This is also the planned activity of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. They come to canvass and educate, and thus a person in the illusory energy of the Supreme Lord gets a chance to mix with them, talk with them, and take lessons from them, and somehow or other if a conditioned soul surrenders to such personalities and by intimate association with them chances to become Kṛṣṇa conscious, he is saved from the material conditions of life. Kṛṣṇa therefore instructs:", + "sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja

In other words, he was an atheist, who did not believe in the existence of God, and who consequently stopped all Vedic ritualistic ceremonies in his kingdom. Pṛthu Mahārāja considered his character abominable because he was foolish regarding the execution of religious performances. Atheists are of the opinion that there is no need to accept the authority of the Supreme Personality of Godhead to be successful in religion, economic development, sense gratification or liberation. According to them, dharma, or religious principles, are meant to establish an imaginary God to encourage one to become moral, honest and just so that the social orders may be maintained in peace and tranquillity. Furthermore, they say that actually there is no need to accept God for this purpose, for if one follows the principles of morality and honesty, that is sufficient. Similarly, if one makes nice plans and works very hard for economic development, automatically the result of economic development will come. Similarly, sense gratification also does not depend on the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, for if one earns enough money by any process, he will have sufficient opportunity for sense gratification. Insofar as liberation is concerned, they say that there is no need to talk of liberation because after death everything is finished. Pṛthu Mahārāja, however, does not accept the authority of such atheists, headed by his father, who was the grandson of death personified. Generally, a daughter inherits the qualities of her father, and a son gets the qualities of his mother. Thus Mṛtyu's daughter, Sunīthā, got all the qualities of her father, and Vena inherited the qualities of his mother. A person who is always subjected to the rules and regulations of repeated birth and death cannot accommodate anything beyond materialistic ideas. Since King Vena was such a man, he did not believe in the existence of God. Modern civilization agrees with the principles of King Vena, but factually if we scrutinizingly study all the conditions of religion, economic development, sense gratification and liberation, we must accept the principles of the authority of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. According to Vedic literature, religion consists only of the codes of law given by God.", + "If one does not accept the authority of the Supreme Godhead in matters of religion and morality, one must explain why two persons of the same moral standard achieve different results. It is generally found that even if two men have the same moral standards of ethics, honesty and morality, their positions are still not the same. Similarly, in economic development it is seen that if two men work very hard day and night, still the results are not the same. One person may enjoy great opulence, without even working, whereas another person, although working very hard, does not even get two sufficient meals a day. Similarly, in the matter of sense gratification, sometimes one who has sufficient food is still not happy in his family affairs or sometimes is not even married, whereas another person, even though not economically well off, has the greatest opportunity for sense gratification. Even an animal like a hog or a dog may have greater opportunities for sense gratification than a human being. Aside from liberation, even if we consider only the preliminary necessities of life—dharma, artha and kāma (religion, economic development and sense gratification)—we will see that they are not the same for everyone. Therefore it must be accepted that there is someone who determines the different standards. In conclusion, not only for liberation must one depend on the Lord, but even for ordinary necessities in this material world. Pṛthu Mahārāja therefore indicated that in spite of having rich parents, children are sometimes not happy. Similarly, in spite of valuable medicine administered by a competent physician, sometimes a patient dies; or in spite of having a big safe boat, sometimes a man drowns. We may thus struggle to counteract impediments offered by material nature, but our attempts cannot be successful unless we are favored by the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/21/verses/31.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/21/verses/31.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..70e5dbcb --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/21/verses/31.json @@ -0,0 +1,124 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 31, + "reference": "SB 4.21.31", + "devanagari": "यत्पादसेवाभिरुचिस्तपस्विनाम् अशेषजन्मोपचितं मलं धियः\nसद्यः क्षिणोत्य् अन्वहम् एधती सती यथा पदांगुष्ठविनिःसृता सरित्", + "transliteration": "yat-pāda-sevābhirucis tapasvinām\naśeṣa-janmopacitaṁ malaṁ dhiyaḥ\nsadyaḥ kṣiṇoty anvaham edhatī satī\nyathā padāṅguṣṭha-viniḥsṛtā sarit", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yat-pāda", + "meanings": [ + "whose lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sevā", + "meanings": [ + "service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiruciḥ", + "meanings": [ + "inclination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapasvinām", + "meanings": [ + "persons undergoing severe penances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśeṣa", + "meanings": [ + "innumerable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "birth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upacitam", + "meanings": [ + "acquire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "malam", + "meanings": [ + "dirtiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhiyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sadyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "immediately" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣiṇoti", + "meanings": [ + "destroys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvaham", + "meanings": [ + "day after day" + ] + }, + { + "word": "edhatī", + "meanings": [ + "increasing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satī", + "meanings": [ + "being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padāṅguṣṭha", + "meanings": [ + "the toes of His lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viniḥsṛtā", + "meanings": [ + "emanating from" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarit", + "meanings": [ + "water." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By the inclination to serve the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, suffering humanity can immediately cleanse the dirt which has accumulated in their minds during innumerable births.

A very respectable brāhmaṇa in Calcutta never took a doctor's medicine. Even though he sometimes felt sick, he would not accept medicine from the physician but would simply drink Ganges water, and he was always cured within a very short time. The glories of Ganges water are known to Indians and to ourselves also. The River Ganges flows by Calcutta. Sometimes within the water there are many stools and other dirty things which are washed away from neighboring mills and factories, but still thousands of men take baths in the Ganges water, and they are very healthy as well as spiritually inclined. That is the effect of Ganges water. The Ganges is glorified because it emanates from the toes of the lotus feet of the Lord. Similarly, if one takes to the service of the lotus feet of the Lord or takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness very swiftly become perfectly cleansed of all dirty things and make spiritual progress. Therefore Pṛthu Mahārāja advises that without the benediction of the Supreme Lord, one cannot make advancement—either in so-called morality, economic development or sense gratification. One should therefore take to the service of the Lord, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and thus very soon become a perfect man, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (kṣipraṁ bhavati dharmātmā śaśvac-chāntiṁ nigacchati). Being a responsible king, Pṛthu Mahārāja recommends that everyone take shelter of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and thus be immediately purified. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa also says in Bhagavad-gītā that simply by surrendering unto Him one is immediately relieved of all sinful reactions. As Kṛṣṇa takes away all the sinful reactions of a person immediately upon his surrender unto Him, similarly the external manifestation of Kṛṣṇa, the representative of Kṛṣṇa who acts as the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, takes all the resultant actions of the sinful life of the disciple immediately after the disciple's initiation.

Thus when a devotee is fixed in the loving service of the lotus feet of the Lord, he will never come back to this material existence after quitting his body, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā by the Lord (tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti so 'rjuna).", + "In this verse the word vijñāna is specifically important. Jñāna, the knowledge of spiritual identity that one attains when he does not consider himself to be the body, is explained in Bhagavad-gītā as brahma-bhūta, the revival of spiritual realization. In the conditioned state of material existence one cannot be spiritually realized because he identifies himself materially. The understanding of the distinction between material existence and spiritual existence is called jñāna. After coming to the platform of jñāna, or the brahma-bhūta state, one ultimately comes to devotional service, in which he completely understands his own position and the position of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This understanding is explained here as vijñāna-viśeṣa. The Lord says, therefore, that knowledge of Him is vijñāna, science. In other words, when one is strengthened by scientific knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, his position of liberation is guaranteed. In Bhagavad-gītā also, the science of devotional service is described as pratyakṣāvagamaṁ dharmyam, direct understanding of the principles of religion by realization (Bg. 9.2).", + "By practicing bhakti-yoga, one can directly perceive his advancement in spiritual life.

Our false appetite for enjoyment and lordship of the material world is due to a prominence of passion and ignorance. By bhakti-yoga these two qualities are diminished, and one becomes situated in the mode of goodness.

This necessitates accepting the principle of four varṇas and four āśramas. Pṛthu Mahārāja therefore says, guṇaiḥ sva-karmabhiḥ. This phrase is explained in Bhagavad-gītā. Cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ: \"The four castes (the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras) are created by the Supreme Personality of Godhead according to the material modes of nature and the particular duties discharged in those modes.\" A person who is situated in the mode of goodness is certainly more intelligent than others. Therefore he can practice the brahminical activities—namely, speaking the truth, controlling the senses, controlling the mind, remaining always clean, practicing tolerance, having full knowledge about one's self-identity, and understanding devotional service. In this way, if he engages himself in the loving service of the Lord as an actual brāhmaṇa, his aim to achieve the final interest of life is attained. Similarly, the kṣatriya's duties are to give protection to the citizens, to give all his possessions in charity, to be strictly Vedic in the management of state affairs, and to be unafraid to fight whenever there is an attack by enemies. In this way, a kṣatriya can satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead by his occupational duties. Similarly, a vaiśya can satisfy the Supreme Godhead by properly executing his occupational duties—engaging himself in producing foodstuffs, giving protection to cows, and trading if necessary when there is an excess of agricultural production. Similarly, because they do not have ample intelligence, śūdras should simply engage as workers to serve the higher statuses of social life. Everyone's aim should be to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead by engaging his mind in thinking always of Kṛṣṇa, his words in always offering prayers to the Lord or preaching about the glories of the Lord, and his body in executing the service required to satisfy the Lord. As there are four divisions within our body—the head, the arms, the belly and the legs—similarly, human society, taken as a whole, is divided into four classes of men according to their material qualities and occupational duties. Thus the brahminical or intelligent men have to execute the duty of the head, the kṣatriyas must fulfill the duty of the arms, the vaiśya class must fulfill the duty of the belly, and the śūdras must fulfill the duty of the legs. In executing the prescribed duties of life, no one is higher or lower, for although there are such divisions as higher and lower, since there is actually a common interest—to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead—there are no distinctions between them.", + "The question may be raised that since the Lord is supposed to be worshiped by great demigods like Lord Brahmā, Lord Śiva and others, how can an ordinary human being on this planet serve Him? This is clearly explained by Pṛthu Mahārāja by the use of the word yathādhikāra, \"according to one's ability.\" If one sincerely executes his occupational duty, that will be sufficient. One does not need to become like Lord Brahmā, Lord Śiva, Indra, Lord Caitanya or Rāmānujācārya, whose capabilities are certainly far above ours. Even a śūdra, who is in the lowest stage of life according to the material qualities, can achieve the same success. Anyone can become successful in devotional service provided he displays no duplicity. It is explained here that one must be very frank and open-minded (amāyinaḥ). To be situated in a lower status of life is not a disqualification for success in devotional service. The only qualification is that whether one is a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya or śūdra, he must be open, frank and free from reservations. Then, by performing his particular occupational duty under the guidance of a proper spiritual master, he can achieve the highest success in life. As confirmed by the Lord Himself, striyo vaiśyās tathā śūdrās te 'pi yānti parāṁ gatim (Bg. 9.32). It does not matter what one is, whether a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya, śūdra or a degraded woman. If he engages himself seriously in devotional service, working with body, mind and intelligence, he is sure to be successful in going back home, back to Godhead. The Lord's lotus feet are described here as kāma-dughāṅghri-paṅkajam because they have all power to fulfill the desires of everyone. A devotee is happy even in this life because—although in material existence we have many needs—all his material needs are satisfied, and when he at last quits his body, he goes back home, back to Godhead, without a doubt." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/21/verses/34.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/21/verses/34.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..811c7bfc --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/21/verses/34.json @@ -0,0 +1,143 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 34, + "reference": "SB 4.21.34", + "devanagari": "असाव् इहानेकगुणो ऽगुणो ऽध्वरः पृथग्विधद्रव्यगुणक्रियोक्तिभिः\nसम्पद्यते ऽर्थाशयलिंगनामभिर्विशुद्धविज्ञानघनः स्वरूपतः", + "transliteration": "asāv ihāneka-guṇo 'guṇo 'dhvaraḥ\npṛthag-vidha-dravya-guṇa-kriyoktibhiḥ\nsampadyate 'rthāśaya-liṅga-nāmabhir\nviśuddha-vijñāna-ghanaḥ svarūpataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aneka", + "meanings": [ + "various" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aguṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhvaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "yajña" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛthak-vidha", + "meanings": [ + "varieties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dravya", + "meanings": [ + "physical elements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "ingredients" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kriyā", + "meanings": [ + "performances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uktibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by chanting different mantras" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sampadyate", + "meanings": [ + "is worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "artha", + "meanings": [ + "interest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśaya", + "meanings": [ + "purpose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "liṅga", + "meanings": [ + "form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśuddha", + "meanings": [ + "without contamination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijñāna", + "meanings": [ + "science" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "concentrated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svarūpataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in His own form." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is transcendental and not contaminated by this material world.

In Bhagavad-gītā (3.10) it is confirmed that Lord Brahmā created all living entities, including human beings and demigods, and advised them to perform yajña according to their material desires (saha-yajñāḥ prajāḥ sṛṣṭvā). These performances are called yajñas because their ultimate goal is to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu. The purpose of performing yajñas is to get material benefit, but because the aim is to simultaneously satisfy the Supreme Lord, such yajñas have been recommended in the Vedas. Such performances are, of course, known as karma-kāṇḍa or material activities, and all material activities are certainly contaminated by the three modes of material nature. Generally the karma-kāṇḍa ritualistic ceremonies are performed in the mode of passion, yet the conditioned souls, both human beings and demigods, are obliged to perform these yajñas because without them one cannot be happy at all.", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura comments that these karma-kāṇḍa ritualistic ceremonies, although contaminated, contain touches of devotional service because whenever there is a performance of any yajña Lord Viṣṇu is given a central position. This is very important because even a little endeavor to please Lord Viṣṇu is bhakti and is of great value. A tinge of bhakti purifies the material nature of the performances, which by devotional service gradually come to the transcendental position. Therefore although such yajñas are superficially material activities, the results are transcendental. Such yajñas as Sūrya-yajña, Indra-yajña, Candra-yajña, etc., are performed in the names of the demigods, but these demigods are bodily parts of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The demigods cannot accept sacrificial offerings for themselves, but they can accept them for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, just as a departmental tax collector of a government cannot collect taxes for his personal account but can realize them for the government. Any yajña performed with this complete knowledge and understanding is described in Bhagavad-gītā as brahmārpaṇam, or a sacrifice offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Since no one but the Supreme Lord can enjoy the results of sacrifice, the Lord says that He is the actual enjoyer of all sacrifices (bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ sarva-loka-maheśvaram). Sacrifices should be performed with this view in mind. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā:", + "brahmārpaṇaṁ brahma havir

Viṣṇur ārādhyate panthāḥ (Viṣṇu Purāṇa 3.8.9). Anything material or spiritual done for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord is understood to be an actual yajña, and by performing such yajñas one gets liberation from material bondage. The direct method of getting liberation from material bondage is devotional service, comprising the nine following methods:", + "śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ smaraṇaṁ pāda-sevanam
arcanaṁ vandanaṁ dāsyaṁ sakhyam ātma-nivedanam
(Bhāg. 7.5.23)", + "This ninefold process is described in this verse as viśuddha-vijñāna-ghanaḥ, or satisfying the Supreme Personality of Godhead directly by transcendental knowledge concentrated on the form of the Supreme Lord, Viṣṇu. This is the best method for satisfying the Supreme Lord. One who cannot take to this direct process, however, should take the indirect process of performing yajñas for the satisfaction of Viṣṇu or Yajña. Viṣṇu is therefore called yajña-pati. Śrīyaḥ patiṁ yajña-patiṁ jagat-patim (Bhāg. 2.9.15).", + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead's deep scientific knowledge is concentrated to the supreme point. For example, medical science knows some things superficially, but the doctors do not know exactly how things happen in the body. Lord Kṛṣṇa, however, knows everything in detail. Therefore His knowledge is vijñāna-ghana because it does not have any of the defects of material science. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is viśuddha-vijñāna-ghana, concentrated transcendental knowledge; therefore, even though He accepts karma-kāṇḍīya materialistic yajñas, He always remains in a transcendental position. Therefore, the mention of aneka-guṇa refers to the Supreme Personality of Godhead's many transcendental qualities, for He is not affected by the material qualities. The different kinds of material paraphernalia or physical elements are also gradually transformed into spiritual understanding because ultimately there is no difference between material and spiritual qualities, for everything emanates from the Supreme Spirit. This is realized by a gradual process of realization and purification. One vivid example of this is Dhruva Mahārāja, who took to meditation in the forest to achieve material benefit but ultimately became spiritually advanced and did not want any benediction for material profit. He was simply satisfied with the association of the Supreme Lord. Āśaya means determination. Generally a conditioned soul has the determination for material profit, but when these desires for material profit are satisfied through performance of yajña, one gradually achieves the spiritual platform. Then his life becomes perfect. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam therefore recommends:", + "akāmaḥ sarva-kāmo vā mokṣa-kāma udāradhīḥ

The individual soul has awareness in accord with his material body, which he attains by virtue of prakṛti or material nature. The material ingredients are activated by force of time, and thus the three material modes of nature are manifested. According to his association with the three modes of nature, the living entity develops a particular type of body. In animal life, the material mode of ignorance is so prominent that there is very little chance of realizing the Paramātmā, who is also present within the heart of the animal; but in the human form of life, because of developed consciousness (cetanām), one can be transferred from ignorance and passion to goodness by the results of his activities (kriyā-phalatvena). A human being is therefore advised to associate with spiritually advanced personalities. The Vedas give the direction tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet: in order to reach the perfection of life or to understand the real constitutional position of the living entity, one must approach the spiritual master. (Muṇḍaka Up. 1.2.12) Gurum evābhigacchet—one must; it is not optional. It is imperative that one approach the spiritual master, for by such association one proportionately develops his consciousness toward the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The highest perfection of such consciousness is called Kṛṣṇa consciousness. According to the body given by prakṛti, or nature, one's consciousness is present; according to the development of consciousness, one's activities are performed; and according to the purity of such activities, one realizes the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is present in everyone's heart. The example given herein is very appropriate. Fire is always the same, but according to the size of the fuel or burning wood, the fire appears to be straight, curved, small, big, etc.", + "According to the development of consciousness, God realization is present. In the human form of life it is recommended, therefore, that one undergo the different types of penances and austerities described in Bhagavad-gītā (karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga, dhyāna-yoga and bhakti-yoga). Like a staircase, yoga has different steps for reaching the topmost floor, and according to one's position upon the staircase, he is understood to be situated in karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga, dhyāna-yoga or bhakti-yoga. Of course, bhakti-yoga is the topmost step on the staircase of realization of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In other words, according to one's development in consciousness, one realizes spiritual identity, and thus when one's existential position is purified fully, he becomes situated in brahmānanda, which is ultimately unlimited. Therefore the saṅkīrtana movement contributed by the Supreme Personality of Godhead as Lord Caitanya is the direct and easiest process for coming to the purest form of consciousness—Kṛṣṇa consciousness, the platform on which the Supreme Personality is fully realized. Directions for performing different types of yajñas are specifically arranged for the highest realization of the Supreme Lord, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā by the Lord Himself. Ye yathā māṁ prapadyante tāṁs tathaiva bhajāmy aham (Bg. 4.11). The Supreme Personality of Godhead is realized according to the proportion of one's surrender.

Now he explains how one can be steadily fixed in devotional service. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, while instructing Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī, has compared the devotional service of the Lord with a creeper. A creeper has a feeble stem and requires the support of another tree to grow, and while growing, it requires sufficient protection so that it may not be lost. While describing the system of protection for the creeper of devotional service, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has especially stressed protection from offenses unto the lotus feet of Vaiṣṇavas. This is called vaiṣṇavāparādha. Aparādha means offense. If one commits vaiṣṇavāparādha, all of his progress in devotional service will be checked. Even though one is very much advanced in devotional service, if he commits offenses at the feet of a Vaiṣṇava, his advancement is all spoiled. In the śāstras it is found that a very great yogī, Durvāsā Muni, committed a vaiṣṇavāparādha, and thus for one full year had to travel all over the universe, even to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, to defend himself from the offense. At last, even when he approached the Supreme Personality of Godhead in Vaikuṇṭha, he was refused protection. Therefore one should be very careful about committing offenses at the feet of a Vaiṣṇava. The most grievous type of vaiṣṇavāparādha is called gurv-aparādha, which refers to offenses at the lotus feet of the spiritual master. In the chanting of the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, this gurv-aparādha is considered the most grievous offense. Guror avajñā śruti-śāstra-nindanam (Padma Purāṇa). Among the ten offenses committed against the chanting of the holy name, the first offenses are disobedience of the spiritual master and blasphemy of the Vedic literature.", + "The simple definition of \"Vaiṣṇava\" is given by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu: a person who immediately reminds one of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, is a Vaiṣṇava. In this verse, both Vaiṣṇavas and brāhmaṇas are mentioned. A Vaiṣṇava is a learned brāhmaṇa and is therefore designated as brāhmaṇa-vaiṣṇava, brāhmaṇa-paṇḍita or as a Vaiṣṇava and brāhmaṇa. In other words, a Vaiṣṇava is supposed to be a brāhmaṇa already, but a brāhmaṇa may not be a pure Vaiṣṇava. When a person understands his pure identity, brahma jānāti, he immediately becomes a brāhmaṇa. In the brāhmaṇa stage, one's understanding of the Absolute Truth is mainly based on the impersonal view. When a brāhmaṇa, however, rises to the platform of personal understanding of the Supreme Godhead, he becomes a Vaiṣṇava. A Vaiṣṇava is transcendental even to a brāhmaṇa. In the material conception, the position of a brāhmaṇa is the highest in human society, but a Vaiṣṇava is transcendental even to a brāhmaṇa. Both the brāhmaṇa and Vaiṣṇava are spiritually advanced. A brāhmaṇa's qualifications are mentioned in Bhagavad-gītā as truthfulness, mental equanimity, control of the senses, the power of tolerance, simplicity, knowledge of the Absolute Truth, firm faith in the scriptures, and practical application of the brahminical qualities in life. In addition to all these qualifications, when one fully engages in the transcendental loving service of the Lord, he becomes a Vaiṣṇava. Pṛthu Mahārāja warns his citizens who are actually engaged in the devotional service of the Lord to take care against offenses to the brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas.

The spiritual master is the best brāhmaṇa. At present, in the age of Kali, it is very difficult to render service to the brāhmaṇa-kula or the brāhmaṇa class. The difficulty, according to the Varāha Purāṇa, is that demons, taking advantage of Kali-yuga, have taken birth in brāhmaṇa families. Rākṣasāḥ kalim āśritya jāyante brahma-yoniṣu (Varāha Purāṇa). In other words, in this age there are many so-called caste brāhmaṇas and caste Gosvāmīs who, taking advantage of the śāstra and of the innocence of people in general, claim to be brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas by hereditary right. One will not derive any benefit by rendering service to such false brāhmaṇa-kulas. One must therefore take shelter of a bona fide spiritual master and his associates and should also render service to them, for such activity will greatly help the neophyte in attaining full satisfaction. This has been very clearly explained by Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura in his explanation of the verse vyavasāyātmikā buddhir ekeha kuru-nandana (Bg. 2.41). By actually following the regulative principles of bhakti-yoga as recommended by Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura, one can very quickly come to the transcendental platform of liberation, as explained in this verse (atyanta-śamam). The particular use of the word anativelam (\"without delay\") is very significant because simply by serving brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas one can get liberation. There is no need to undergo severe penances and austerities. The vivid example of this is Nārada Muni himself. In his previous birth, he was simply a maidservant's son, but he got the opportunity to serve exalted brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas, and thus in his next life he not only became liberated but became famous as the supreme spiritual master of the entire Vaiṣṇava disciplic succession.

The vivid example of this principle in action was given by Advaita Prabhu. When he performed the śrāddha ceremony for his father, he first of all called Haridāsa Ṭhākura and offered him food. It is the practice that after finishing the śrāddha ceremony, one should offer food to an elevated brāhmaṇa.

Advaita Prabhu replied that He was feeding millions of first-class brāhmaṇas by offering the food to Haridāsa Ṭhākura.

In order to distinguish this class of men from the real brāhmaṇas, Mahārāja Pṛthu is giving an exact description of a brāhmaṇa and brahminical culture. One should not take advantage of his position simply to live like a fire without light. A brāhmaṇa must be fully conversant with the Vedic conclusion, which is described in Bhagavad-gītā. Vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ (Bg. 15.15). The Vedic conclusion—the ultimate understanding, or Vedānta understanding—is knowledge of Kṛṣṇa. Actually that is a fact because simply by understanding Kṛṣṇa as He is, as described in Bhagavad-gītā (janma karma ca me divyam evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ), one becomes a perfect brāhmaṇa.

A perfect Vaiṣṇava or Kṛṣṇa conscious person is always in this transcendental position because he speaks according to Kṛṣṇa and His representative. Because Vaiṣṇavas speak exactly according to the tune of Kṛṣṇa, whatever they say is free from these four defects. For example, Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā that everyone should always think of Him, everyone should become His devotee, offer Him obeisances and worship Him, and ultimately everyone should surrender unto Him. These devotional activities are transcendental and free from mistakes, illusion, cheating and imperfection. Therefore anyone who is a sincere devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa and who preaches this cult, speaking only on the basis of Kṛṣṇa's instructions, is understood to be virajam, or free from the defects of material contamination.

This knowledge is perfect from time immemorial, and the brahminical or Vaiṣṇava culture depends on this principle eternally.

To do what is good means to accept everything favorable to the discharge of devotional service, and to reject what is not good means to reject everything not favorable for discharging devotional service. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, we accept this principle by rejecting four prohibited items—namely, illicit sex life, intoxication, gambling and flesh-eating—and accepting the daily chanting of at least sixteen rounds of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra and daily meditation three times a day by chanting the Gāyatrī mantra. In this way one can keep his brahminical culture and spiritual strength intact. By following these principles of devotional service strictly, chanting twenty-four hours a day the mahā-mantra—Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare—one makes positive progress in spiritual life and ultimately becomes completely fit to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face. Because the ultimate goal of studying or understanding the Vedic knowledge is to find Kṛṣṇa, one who follows the Vedic principles as described above can from the very beginning see all the features of Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Absolute Truth, very distinctly, as one can see his own face completely reflected in a clear mirror. The conclusion is, therefore, that a brāhmaṇa does not become a brāhmaṇa simply because he is a living entity or is born in a brāhmaṇa family; he must possess all the qualities mentioned in the śāstras and practice the brahminical principles in his life. Thus he ultimately becomes a fully Kṛṣṇa conscious person and can understand what Kṛṣṇa is.

The word vivṛddha-sattvāya is significant. In the material world there are three qualities—namely goodness, passion and ignorance. One has to be raised from the platform of ignorance to the platform of goodness by devotional service. There is no other means for elevating one from the lowest stage of life to the highest stage but the execution of devotional service; as advised in the previous chapters of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, one can raise himself from the lowest position to the highest simply by associating with devotees and hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam regularly from their mouths.", + "śṛṇvatāṁ sva-kathāḥ kṛṣṇaḥ puṇya-śravaṇa-kīrtanaḥ

The result of association with the qualities of passion and ignorance is that one becomes lusty and greedy. But when one is elevated to the platform of goodness, he is satisfied in any condition of life and is without lust and greed. This mentality indicates one's situation on the platform of goodness. One has to transcend this goodness and raise himself to the pure goodness which is called vivṛddha-sattva or the advanced stage of goodness. In the advanced stage of goodness one can become Kṛṣṇa conscious. Therefore Mahārāja Pṛthu is addressed here as vivṛddha-sattva, or one who is situated in the transcendental position. But Mahārāja Pṛthu, although situated in the transcendental position of a pure devotee, came down to the position of brāhmaṇa and kṣatriya for the benefit of human society and thus gave protection to the entire world by his personal prowess. Although he was a king, a kṣatriya, because he was a Vaiṣṇava he was also a brāhmaṇa. As a brāhmaṇa he could give proper instruction to the citizens, and as a kṣatriya he could rightly give protection to all of them.

If a householder is to receive a saintly person, he has to receive his entourage also. It is said in the śāstras that Durvāsā Muni was always accompanied by 60,000 disciples and that if there was a little discrepancy in their reception, he would be very angry and would sometimes curse the host. The fact is that every householder, regardless of his position or economic condition, can at least receive saintly guests with great devotion and offer them drinking water, for drinking water is available always. In India the custom is that even an ordinary person is offered a glass of water if he suddenly visits and one cannot offer him foodstuff. If there is no water, then one can offer a sitting place, even if it is on straw mats. And if he has no straw mat, he can immediately cleanse the ground and ask the guest to sit there.

As far as brāhmaṇas are concerned, in the previous verse the mode of reception has been already described. Now, in this verse, special stress is being given to the Vaiṣṇavas. Generally the sannyāsīs, or those in the renounced order of life, take trouble to enlighten the householders. There are ekadaṇḍī sannyāsīs and tridaṇḍī sannyāsīs. The ekadaṇḍī sannyāsīs are generally followers of Śaṅkarācārya and are known as Māyāvādī sannyāsīs, whereas the tridaṇḍī sannyāsīs are followers of Vaiṣṇava ācāryas—Rāmānujācārya, Madhvācārya and so on—and they take trouble to enlighten the householders. Ekadaṇḍī sannyāsīs can be situated on the platform of pure Brahman because they are aware that the spirit soul is different from the body, but they are mainly impersonalists. The Vaiṣṇavas know that the Absolute Truth is the Supreme Person and that the Brahman effulgence is based on the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā: brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāham (Bg. 14.27). The conclusion is that tīrtha-pādīya refers to Vaiṣṇavas. In the Bhāgavatam there is also another reference: tīrthīkurvanti tīrthāni. Wherever he goes, a Vaiṣṇava immediately makes that place a tīrtha, a place of pilgrimage. The Vaiṣṇava sannyāsīs travel all over the world to make every place a place of pilgrimage by the touch of their lotus feet. It is mentioned there that any house which does not receive a Vaiṣṇava in the manner already explained in the previous verse is to be considered the residential quarters of venomous serpents. It is said that about the sandalwood tree, which is a very valuable tree, there is a venomous serpent. Sandalwood is very cold, and venomous serpents, because of their poisonous teeth, are always very warm, and they take shelter of the sandalwood trees to become cooler. Similarly, there are many rich men who keep watchdogs or doormen and put up signs that say, do not enter, trespassers not allowed, beware of the dog, etc. Sometimes in western countries a trespasser is shot, and there is no crime in such shooting. This is the position of demoniac householders, and such houses are considered to be the residential quarters of venomous snakes. The members of such families are no better than snakes because snakes are very much envious, and when that envy is directed to the saintly persons, their position becomes more dangerous. It is said by Cāṇakya Paṇḍita that there are two envious living entities, the snake and the envious man. The envious man is more dangerous than a snake because a snake can be subdued by charming mantras or by some herbs, but an envious person cannot be pacified by any means." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1e1e1c48 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 4.22.12", + "devanagari": "स्वागतं वो द्विजश्रेष्ठा यद्व्रतानि मुमुक्षवः\nचरन्ति श्रद्धया धीरा बाला एव बृहन्ति च", + "transliteration": "svāgataṁ vo dvija-śreṣṭhā\nyad-vratāni mumukṣavaḥ\ncaranti śraddhayā dhīrā\nbālā eva bṛhanti ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "svāgatam", + "meanings": [ + "welcome" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvija-śreṣṭhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the best of the brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vratāni", + "meanings": [ + "vows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mumukṣavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of persons desiring liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "caranti", + "meanings": [ + "behave" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śraddhayā", + "meanings": [ + "with great faith" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhīrāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "controlled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bālāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "boys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bṛhanti", + "meanings": [ + "observe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Mahārāja Pṛthu offered his welcome to the four Kumāras, addressing them as the best of the brāhmaṇas.

As we have already explained, they have their sampradāya (disciplic succession), and even to date the sampradāya is being maintained and is known as the Nimbārka-sampradāya. Out of the four sampradāyas of the Vaiṣṇava ācāryas, the Nimbārka-sampradāya is one. Mahārāja Pṛthu specifically appreciated the position of the Kumāras because they maintained the brahmacarya vow from the very beginning of their birth. Mahārāja Pṛthu, however, expressed his great appreciation of Vaiṣṇavism by addressing the Kumāras as Vaiṣṇava-śreṣṭha. In other words, everyone should offer respect to a Vaiṣṇava without considering his source of birth. Vaiṣṇave jāti-buddhiḥ. No one should consider a Vaiṣṇava in terms of birth.

Since they are always engaged on the path of liberation, there was no question of ill fortune. In other words, brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas who are strictly following the path of spiritual advancement are always fortunate. The question was asked by Pṛthu Mahārāja for his own sake, since he was in the position of a gṛhastha and in charge of the royal authority. Kings are not only gṛhasthas, who are generally absorbed in sense gratification, but are sometimes employed to kill animals in hunting because they have to practice the killing art, otherwise it is very difficult for them to fight their enemies. Such things are not auspicious. Four kinds of sinful activities—associating with woman for illicit sex, eating meat, intoxication and gambling—are allowed for the kṣatriyas. For political reasons, sometimes they have to take to these sinful activities. Kṣatriyas do not refrain from gambling. One vivid example is the Pāṇḍavas. When the Pāṇḍavas were challenged by the opposite party, Duryodhana, to gamble and risk their kingdom, they could not refrain, and by that gambling they lost their kingdom, and their wife was insulted. Similarly, the kṣatriyas cannot refrain from fighting if challenged by the opposite party. Therefore Pṛthu Mahārāja, taking consideration of all these facts, inquired whether there is any auspicious path. Gṛhastha life is inauspicious because gṛhastha means consciousness for sense gratification, and as soon as there is sense gratification, one's position is always full of dangers. This material world is said to be padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadāṁ na teṣām, dangerous in every step (Bhāg. 10.14.58). Everyone in this material world is struggling hard for sense gratification. Clearing all these points, Mahārāja Pṛthu inquired from the four Kumāras about the fallen conditioned souls who are rotting in this material world due to their past bad or inauspicious activities. Is there any possibility for their auspicious spiritual life? In this verse, the word indriyārthārtha-vedinām is very significant. It indicates persons whose only aim is to satisfy the senses. They are also described as patitānām, or fallen. Only one who stops all activities for sense gratification is considered to be elevated. Another significant word is sva-karmabhiḥ. One becomes fallen by dint of his own past bad activities. Everyone is responsible for his fallen condition because of his own activities. When activities are changed to devotional service, one's auspicious life begins." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/14.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/14.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..44c76e2a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/14.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 14, + "reference": "SB 4.22.14", + "devanagari": "भवत्सु कुशलप्रश्न आत्मारामेषु नेष्यते\nकुशलाकुशला यत्र न सन्ति मतिवृत्तयः", + "transliteration": "bhavatsu kuśala-praśna\nātmārāmeṣu neṣyate\nkuśalākuśalā yatra\nna santi mati-vṛttayaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bhavatsu", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuśala", + "meanings": [ + "good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praśnaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "question" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-ārāmeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "one who is always engaged in spiritual bliss" + ] + }, + { + "word": "neṣyate", + "meanings": [ + "there is no need of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuśala", + "meanings": [ + "good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akuśalāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "inauspiciousness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "where" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "santi", + "meanings": [ + "exists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mati-vṛttayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mental concoction." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Pṛthu Mahārāja continued: My dear sirs, there is no need to ask about your good and bad fortune because you are always absorbed in spiritual bliss.

This was not, however, a question personally for Pṛthu Mahārāja. It was raised to teach the common man that whenever one meets a great saintly person, he should immediately surrender unto him and inquire about relief from the material pains of existence.

One can get rid of all these material pains only when he takes shelter of the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. This is also explained by Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura: golokera prema-dhana, harināma-saṅkīrtana, rati nā janmila kene tāya. Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura regretted that he did not pursue his attraction for the transcendental vibration of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra.

There are three different kinds of devotees, namely kaniṣṭha-adhikārī, madhyama-adhikārī and uttama-adhikārī: the neophyte, the preacher and the mahā-bhāgavata or the highly advanced devotees. The highly advanced devotee is one who knows the conclusion of the Vedas in full knowledge; thus he becomes a devotee. Indeed, not only is he convinced himself, but he can convince others on the strength of Vedic evidence. The advanced devotee can also see all other living entities as part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, without discrimination. The madhyama-adhikārī (preacher) is also well versed in the śāstras and can convince others also, but he discriminates between the favorable and the unfavorable. In other words, the madhyama-adhikārī does not care for the demoniac living entities, and the neophyte kaniṣṭha-adhikārī does not know much about śāstra but has full faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Kumāras were, however, mahā-bhāgavatas because after scrutinizingly studying the Absolute Truth, they became devotees. In other words, they were in full knowledge of the Vedic conclusion. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is confirmed by the Lord that there are many devotees, but a devotee who is fully conversant in the Vedic conclusion is very dear to Him. Everyone is trying to elevate himself to the highest position according to his mentality. The karmīs, who have a bodily concept of life, try to enjoy sense gratification to the utmost. The jñānīs' idea of the highest position is merging into the effulgence of the Lord. But a devotee's highest position is in preaching all over the world the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore the devotees are actually the representatives of the Supreme Lord, and as such they travel all over the world directly as Nārāyaṇa because they carry Nārāyaṇa within their hearts and preach His glories. The representative of Nārāyaṇa is as good as Nārāyaṇa, but he is not to conclude, like the Māyāvādīs, that he has become Nārāyaṇa. Generally, a sannyāsī is addressed as Nārāyaṇa by the Māyāvādīs. Their idea is that simply by taking sannyāsa one becomes equal to Nārāyaṇa or becomes Nārāyaṇa Himself.

The ultimate goal of life is described in Bhagavad-gītā. Paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate (Bg. 2.59). When one finds out the supreme goal of life, he naturally becomes detached from the bodily concept. Here in this verse the indication is that one has to steadfastly increase attachment for the Transcendence (brahmaṇi). As it is confirmed in the Vedānta-sūtra, athāto brahma-jijñāsā (Vs. 1.1.1): without inquiry about the Supreme or the Transcendence, one cannot give up attachment for this material world. By the evolutionary process in 8,400,000 species of life, one cannot understand the ultimate goal of life because in all those species of life, the bodily conception is very prominent. Athāto brahma jijñāsā means that in order to get out of the bodily conception, one has to increase attachment or inquiry about Brahman. Then he can be situated in the transcendental devotional service—śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ. To increase attachment for Brahman means to engage in devotional service. Those who are attached to the impersonal form of Brahman cannot remain attached for very long. Impersonalists, after rejecting this world as mithyā or false (jagan—mithyā), come down again to this jagan—mithyā, although they take sannyāsa to increase their attachment for Brahman. Similarly, many yogīs who are attached to the localized aspect of Brahman as Paramātmā—great sages like Viśvāmitra—also fall down as victims of women. Therefore increased attachment for the Supreme Personality of Godhead is advised in all śāstras. That is the only way of detachment from material existence and is explained in Bhagavad-gītā as paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate (Bg. 2.59). One can cease material activities when he actually has the taste for devotional service. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu also recommended love of Godhead as the ultimate goal of life (premā pumartho mahān).

One can be thus elevated by losing taste for sense enjoyment.", + "purport": [ + "In the material world everyone is interested in money and sense gratification.

(Bhāg. 2.1.3)", + "This is a typical example of materialistic persons. At night they waste their time by sleeping more than six hours or by wasting time in sex indulgence. This is their occupation at night, and in the morning they go to their office or business place just to earn money. As soon as there is some money, they become busy in purchasing things for their children and others. Such persons are never interested in understanding the values of life—what is God, what is the individual soul, what is its relationship with God, etc. Things are degraded to such an extent that those who are supposed to be religious are also at the present moment only interested in sense gratification. The number of materialistic persons in this age of Kali has increased more than in any other age; therefore persons who are interested in going back home, back to Godhead, should not only engage in the service of realized souls but should give up the company of materialistic persons whose only aim is to earn money and employ it in sense gratification. They should also not accept the objectives of materialistic persons, namely money and sense gratification. Therefore it is stated: bhakti—parasyānubhavaṁ viraktir anyathā syāt. To advance in devotional service one should be uninterested in the materialistic way of life. That which is the subject matter of satisfaction for the devotees is of no interest to the nondevotees.", + "Simple negation, or giving up the company of materialistic persons, will not do. We must have engagements. Sometimes it is found that a person interested in spiritual advancement gives up the company of material society and goes to a secluded place as recommended for the yogīs especially, but that will also not help a person in spiritual advancement, for in many instances such yogīs also fall down. As far as jñānīs are concerned, generally they fall down without taking shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord. The impersonalists or the voidists can simply avoid the positive material association; they cannot remain fixed in transcendence without being engaged in devotional service. The beginning of devotional service is to hear about the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is recommended in this verse: vinā harer guṇa-pīyūṣa-pānāt. One must drink the nectar of the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and this means that one must be always engaged in hearing and chanting the glories of the Lord. It is the prime method for advancing in spiritual life. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu also recommends this in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta. If one wants to make advancement in spiritual life, by great fortune he may meet a bona fide spiritual master and from him learn about Kṛṣṇa. By serving both the spiritual master and Kṛṣṇa he gets the seed of devotional service (bhakti-latā-bīja), and if he sows the seed within his heart and waters it by hearing and chanting, it grows into a luxuriant bhakti-latā or bhakti creeper. The creeper is so strong that it penetrates the covering of the universe and reaches the spiritual world and continues to grow on and on until it reaches and takes shelter of the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa. An ordinary creeper also grows on and on until it takes a solid shelter on a roof; then it very steadily grows and produces the required fruit. The real cause of the growing of such fruit, which is here called nectar, is hearing and chanting the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The purport is that one cannot live outside the society of devotees; one must live in the association of devotees, where there is constant chanting and hearing of the glories of the Lord. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is started for this purpose, and there are hundreds of ISKCON centers to give opportunity to all people to hear and chant and to accept the spiritual master. By not associating with persons who are materially interested, one can make solid advancement in going back home, back to Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/24.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/24.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4827c20e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/24.json @@ -0,0 +1,115 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 24, + "reference": "SB 4.22.24", + "devanagari": "अहिंसया पारमहंस्यचर्यया स्मृत्या मुकुन्दाचरिताग्र्यसीधुना\nयमैर् अकामैर्नियमैश्चाप्य् अनिन्दया निरीहया द्वन्द्वतितिक्षया च", + "transliteration": "ahiṁsayā pāramahaṁsya-caryayā\nsmṛtyā mukundācaritāgrya-sīdhunā\nyamair akāmair niyamaiś cāpy anindayā\nnirīhayā dvandva-titikṣayā ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ahiṁsayā", + "meanings": [ + "by nonviolence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāramahaṁsya-caryayā", + "meanings": [ + "by following in the footsteps of great ācāryas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smṛtyā", + "meanings": [ + "by remembering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukunda", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ācarita-agrya", + "meanings": [ + "simply preaching His activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sīdhunā", + "meanings": [ + "by the nectar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yamaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by following regulative principles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akāmaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without material desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niyamaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by strictly following the rules and regulations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anindayā", + "meanings": [ + "without blaspheming" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirīhayā", + "meanings": [ + "living simply, plain living" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvandva", + "meanings": [ + "duality" + ] + }, + { + "word": "titikṣayā", + "meanings": [ + "by tolerance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "A candidate for spiritual advancement must be nonviolent, must follow in the footsteps of great ācāryas, must always remember the nectar of the pastimes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, must follow the regulative principles without material desire, and, while following the regulative principles, should not blaspheme others. A devotee should lead a very simple life and not be disturbed by the duality of opposing elements. He should learn to tolerate them.", + "purport": [ + "The devotees are actually saintly persons or sādhus. The first qualification of a sādhu or devotee is ahiṁsā or nonviolence. Persons interested in the path of devotional service or in going back home, back to Godhead, must first practice ahiṁsā or nonviolence. A sādhu is described as titikṣavaḥ kāruṇikāḥ (Bhāg. 3.25.21). A devotee should be tolerant and should be very much compassionate toward others. For example, if he suffers personal injury, he should tolerate it, but if someone else suffers injury, he need not tolerate it. The whole world is full of violence, and a devotee's first business is to stop this violence, including the unnecessary slaughter of animals. A devotee is the friend not only of human society but of all living entities, for he sees all living entities as sons of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He does not claim himself to be the only son of God and allow all others to be killed, thinking that they have no soul. This kind of philosophy is never advocated by a pure devotee of the Lord. Suhṛdaḥ sarva-dehinām: a true devotee is the friend of all living entities. Kṛṣṇa claims in Bhagavad-gītā to be the father of all species of living entities; consequently the devotee of Kṛṣṇa is always a friend of all. This is called ahiṁsā. Such nonviolence can be practiced only when we follow in the footsteps of great ācāryas. Therefore, according to our Vaiṣṇava philosophy, we have to follow the great ācāryas of the four sampradāyas or disciplic successions.", + "Trying to advance in spiritual life outside the disciplic succession is simply ludicrous. It is said, therefore: ācāryavān puruṣo veda (Chānd. Up. 6.14.2). One who follows the disciplic succession of ācāryas knows things as they are. Tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet (Mund. Up. 1.2.12). In order to understand the transcendental science, one must approach the bona fide spiritual master. The word smṛtyā is very important in spiritual life. Smṛtyā means remembering Kṛṣṇa always. Life should be molded in such a way that one cannot remain alone without thinking of Kṛṣṇa. We should live in Kṛṣṇa so that while eating, sleeping, walking and working we remain only in Kṛṣṇa. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness society recommends that we arrange our living so that we can remember Kṛṣṇa. In our ISKCON society the devotees, while engaged in making Spiritual Sky incense, are also hearing about the glories of Kṛṣṇa or His devotees. The śāstra recommends: smartavyaḥ satataṁ viṣṇuḥ. Lord Viṣṇu should be remembered always, constantly. Vismartavyo na jātucit: Viṣṇu should never be forgotten. That is the spiritual way of life. Smṛtyā. This remembrance of the Lord can be continued if we hear about Him constantly. It is therefore recommended in this verse: mukundācaritāgrya-sīdhunā. Sīdhu means nectar. To hear about Kṛṣṇa from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam or Bhagavad-gītā or similar authentic literature is to live in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Such concentration in Kṛṣṇa consciousness can be achieved by persons who are strictly following the rules and regulative principles. We have recommended in our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement that a devotee chant sixteen rounds on beads daily and follow the regulative principles. That will help the devotee be fixed in his spiritual advancement in life.", + "It is also stated in this verse that by controlling the senses one can become a svāmī or gosvāmī. One who is therefore enjoying this supertitle, svāmī or gosvāmī, must be very strict in controlling his senses. Indeed, he must be master of his senses. This is possible when one does not desire any material sense gratification. If, by chance, the senses want to work independently, he must control them. If we simply practice avoiding material sense gratification, controlling the senses is automatically achieved.", + "Another important point mentioned in this connection (anindayā) is that we should not criticize others' methods of religion. There are different types of religious systems operating under different qualities of material nature. Those operating in the modes of ignorance and passion cannot be as perfect as that system in the mode of goodness. In Bhagavad-gītā everything has been divided into three qualitative divisions; therefore religious systems are similarly categorized. When people are mostly under the modes of passion and ignorance, their system of religion will be of the same quality. A devotee, instead of criticizing such systems, will encourage the followers to stick to their principles so that gradually they can come to the platform of religion in goodness. Simply by criticizing them, a devotee's mind will be agitated. Thus a devotee should tolerate and learn to stop agitation.", + "Another feature of the devotee is nirīhayā, simple living. Nirīhā means gentle, meek or simple. A devotee should not live very gorgeously and imitate a materialistic person. Plain living and high thinking are recommended for a devotee. He should accept only so much as he needs to keep the material body fit for the execution of devotional service. He should not eat or sleep more than is required. Simply eating for living, and not living for eating, and sleeping only six to seven hours a day are principles to be followed by devotees. As long as the body is there it is subjected to the influence of climatic changes, disease and natural disturbances, the threefold miseries of material existence. We cannot avoid them. Sometimes we receive letters from neophyte devotees questioning why they have fallen sick, although pursuing Kṛṣṇa consciousness. They should learn from this verse that they have to become tolerant (dvandva-titikṣayā). This is the world of duality. Because he has fallen sick, one should not think that he has fallen from Kṛṣṇa consciousness. One should not think that Kṛṣṇa consciousness can continue without impediment from any material opposition. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa therefore advises in Bhagavad-gītā, tāṁs titikṣasva bhārata: \"My dear Arjuna, please try to tolerate all these disturbances.

The individual soul is liberated when it comes out of the material heart or cleanses the heart to make it spiritualized. The example given here is very appropriate: yonim ivotthito 'gniḥ. Agni, or fire, comes out of wood, and by it the wood is completely destroyed. Similarly, when a living entity increases his attachment for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is to be considered like fire. A blazing fire is visible by its exhibition of heat and light; similarly, when the living entity within the heart becomes enlightened with full spiritual knowledge, and detached from the material world, he burns up his material covering of the five elements—earth, water, fire, air and sky—and becomes free from the five kinds of material attachments, namely ignorance, false egoism, attachment to the material world, envy and absorption in material consciousness. Therefore pañcātmakam, as mentioned in this verse, refers to either the five elements or the five coverings of material contamination. When these are all burned into ashes by the blazing fire of knowledge and detachment, one is fixed firmly in the devotional service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Unless one takes shelter of a bona fide spiritual master and advances his attraction for Kṛṣṇa by his instructions, the five coverings of the living entity cannot be uncovered from the material heart. The living entity is centered within the heart, and to take him away from the heart is to liberate him. This is the process. One must take shelter of a bona fide spiritual master and by his instruction increase one's knowledge in devotional service, become detached from the material world and thus become liberated. An advanced devotee therefore does not live within the material body but within his spiritual body, just as a dry coconut lives detached from the coconut husk, even though within the husk. The pure devotee's body is therefore called cinmaya-śarīra (spiritualized body). In other words, a devotee's body is not connected with material activities, and as such, a devotee is always liberated. Brahma-bhūyāya kalpate. (Bg. 14.26) This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā.

This is the stage of liberation. As said in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, mukti (liberation) means svarūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ—being situated in one's own constitutional position. All material desires are present as long as one is in the bodily concept of life, but when one realizes that he is an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, his desires are no longer material. A devotee acts in this consciousness. In other words, when material desires in connection with the body are finished, one is actually liberated.", + "When one is liberated from the material qualities, he does not do anything for his personal sense gratification. At that time all activities performed by him are absolute. In the conditioned state there are two kinds of activities. One acts on behalf of the body, and at the same time he acts to become liberated. The devotee, when he is completely free from all material desires or all material qualities, transcends the duality of action for the body and soul. Then the bodily concept of life is completely over. Therefore Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī says: īhā yasya harer dāsye karmaṇā manasā vācā/ nikhilāsv apy avasthāsu jīvan-muktaḥ sa ucyate. When one is completely fixed in the service of the Lord, he is a liberated person in any condition of life. He is called jīvan-muktaḥ, liberated even within this body. In such a liberated condition, there is no distinction between actions for sense gratification and actions for liberation. When one is liberated from the desires of sense gratification, he has no longer to suffer the reactions of lamentation or illusion. Activities performed by the karmīs and jñānīs are subject to lamentation and illusion, but a self-realized liberated person acting only for the Supreme Personality of Godhead experiences none. This is the stage of oneness, or merging into the existence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This means that the individual soul, while keeping his individuality, no longer has separate interests. He is fully in the service of the Lord, and he has nothing to do for his personal sense gratification; therefore he sees only the Supreme Personality of Godhead and not himself. His personal interest completely perishes. When a person comes out of a dream, the dream vanishes. While dreaming a person may consider himself a king and see the royal paraphernalia, his soldiers, etc., but when the dream is over, he does not see anything beyond himself. Similarly, a liberated person understands that he is part and parcel of the Supreme Lord acting in accordance with the desire of the Supreme Lord, and as such there is no distinction between himself and the Supreme Lord, although both of them retain their individuality.

Differentiation is therefore the result of different karma or fruitive activities, and when we stop fruitive activities, turning them into acts of devotion, we can understand that we are not different from anyone else, regardless of the form. This is only possible in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. In this movement there are many different races of men from all parts of the world participating, but because they think of themselves as servants of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they do not differentiate between black and white, yellow and red.

If one takes up the sannyāsa order of life but is not able to control the mind, he will think of objects of sense gratification—namely family, society, expensive house, etc. Even though he goes to the Himalayas or the forest, his mind will continue thinking of the objects of sense gratification.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has instructed that if from the very beginning we do not take care of unwanted grass in the paddy fields, the fertilizing agents or water will be used by them and the paddy plants will dry up. The material desire for sense enjoyment is the cause of our falldown in this material world, and thus we suffer the threefold miseries and continuous birth, death, old age and disease. However, if we turn our desires toward the transcendental loving service of the Lord, our desires become purified. We cannot kill desires. We have to purify them of different designations. If we constantly think of being a member of a particular nation, society or family and continuously think about them, we become very strongly entangled in the conditioned life of birth and death.

Vedic civilization offers us all knowledge in the śāstras, and if we live a regulated life under the direction of śāstras and guru, all our material desires will be fulfilled; at the same time we will be able to go forward to liberation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/35.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/35.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..29c8bf56 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/35.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 35, + "reference": "SB 4.22.35", + "devanagari": "तत्रापि मोक्ष एवार्थ आत्यन्तिकतयेष्यते\nत्रैवर्ग्यो ऽर्थो यतो नित्यं कृतान्तभयसंयुतः", + "transliteration": "tatrāpi mokṣa evārtha\nātyantikatayeṣyate\ntraivargyo 'rtho yato nityaṁ\nkṛtānta-bhaya-saṁyutaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mokṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arthe", + "meanings": [ + "for the matter of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātyantikatayā", + "meanings": [ + "most important" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iṣyate", + "meanings": [ + "taken in that way" + ] + }, + { + "word": "traivargyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the three others, namely religion, economic development and sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "interest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "wherefrom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nityam", + "meanings": [ + "regularly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtānta", + "meanings": [ + "death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaya", + "meanings": [ + "fear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁyutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attached." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Out of the four principles—namely, religion, economic development, sense gratification and liberation—liberation has to be taken very seriously.

As advised by Sūta Gosvāmī in the beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, religious principles are not based on success in economic development. Because we are very attached to sense gratification, we go to God, to the temple or churches, for some economic reasons. Then again, economic development does not mean sense gratification. Everything should be adjusted in such a way that we attain liberation. Therefore in this verse, liberation, mokṣa, is stressed. The other three items are material and therefore subject to destruction. Even if somehow we accumulate a great bank balance in this life and possess many material things, everything will be finished with death. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that death is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who ultimately takes away everything acquired by the materialistic person. Foolishly we do not care for this. Foolishly we are not afraid of death, nor do we consider that death will take away everything acquired by the process of dharma, artha and kāma. By dharma, or pious activities, we may be elevated to the heavenly planets, but this does not mean freedom from the clutches of birth, death, old age and disease. The purport is that we can sacrifice our interests in traivargya—religious principles, economic development and sense gratification, but we cannot sacrifice the cause of liberation. Regarding liberation, it is stated in Bhagavad-gītā: tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti (Bg. 4.9). Liberation means that after giving up this body one does not have to accept another material body. But to the impersonalists liberation means merging into the existence of impersonal Brahman. But factually this is not mokṣa because one has to again fall down into this material world from that impersonal position. One should therefore seek the shelter of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and engage in His devotional service. That is real liberation. The conclusion is that we should not stress pious activities, economic development and sense gratification but should concern ourselves with approaching Lord Viṣṇu in His spiritual planets, of which the topmost is Goloka Vṛndāvana where Lord Kṛṣṇa lives.

In human society there must be religion. Without religion, human society is only animal society. Economic development and sense gratification must be based on religious principles. When religion, economic development and sense gratification are adjusted, liberation from this material birth, death, old age and disease is assured. In the present age of Kali, however, there is no question of religion and liberation. People have taken interest only in economic development and sense gratification. Therefore, despite sufficient economic development all over the world, dealings in human society have become almost animalistic. When everything becomes grossly animalistic, dissolution takes place. This dissolution is to be accepted as īśa-vidhvaṁsitāśiṣām. The Lord's so-called blessings of economic development and sense gratification will be conclusively dissolved by destruction. At the end of this Kali-yuga, the Lord will appear as the incarnation of Kalki, and His only business will be to kill all human beings on the surface of the globe. After that killing, another golden age will begin. We should therefore know that our material activities are just like childish play. Children may play on the beach and the father will sit and watch this childish play, the construction of buildings with sand, the construction of walls and so many things, but finally the father will ask the children to come home. Then everything is destroyed. Persons who are too much addicted to the childish activities of economic development and sense gratification are sometimes especially favored by the Lord when He destroys their construction of these things.", + "It is said by the Lord: yasyāham anugṛhṇāmi hariṣye tad-dhanaṁ śanaiḥ. The Lord told Yudhiṣṭhira Mahārāja that His special favor is shown to His devotee when He takes away all the devotee's material opulences. Generally, therefore, it is experienced that Vaiṣṇavas are not very opulent in the material sense. When a Vaiṣṇava, pure devotee, tries to be materially opulent and at the same time desires to serve the Supreme Lord, his devotional service is checked. The Lord, in order to show him a special favor, destroys his so-called economic development and material opulences. Thus the devotee, being frustrated in his repeated attempts at economic development, ultimately takes solid shelter under the lotus feet of the Lord. This kind of action may also be accepted as īśa-vidhvaṁsitāśiṣām, whereby the Lord destroys one's material opulences but enriches him in spiritual understanding. In the course of our preaching work, we sometimes see that materialistic persons come to us and offer their obeisances to take blessings, which means they want more and more material opulences. If such material opulences are checked, such persons are no longer interested in offering obeisances to the devotees. Such materialistic persons are always concerned about their economic development. They offer obeisances to saintly persons or the Supreme Lord and give something in charity for preaching work with a view that they will be rewarded with further economic development.", + "However, when one is sincere in his devotional service, the Lord obliges the devotee to give up his material development and completely surrender unto Him. Because the Lord does not give blessings of material opulence to His devotee, people are afraid of worshiping Lord Viṣṇu because they see that the Vaiṣṇavas, who are worshipers of Lord Viṣṇu, are poor in superficial material opulences. Such materialistic persons, however, get immense opportunity for economic development by worshiping Lord Śiva, for Lord Śiva is the husband of the goddess Durgā, and Durgā is the proprietor of this universe. By the grace of Lord Śiva, a devotee gets the opportunity to be blessed by the goddess Durgā. Rāvaṇa, for example, was a great worshiper and devotee of Lord Śiva, and in return he got all the blessings of goddess Durgā, so much so that his whole kingdom was constructed of golden buildings. In Brazil, in this present age, huge quantities of gold have been found, and from historical references in the Purāṇas, we can guess safely that this was Rāvaṇa's kingdom. This kingdom was, however, destroyed by Lord Rāmacandra.", + "By studying such incidents, we can understand the full meaning of īśa-vidhvaṁsitāśiṣām. The Lord does not bestow material blessings upon the devotees, for they may be entrapped again in this material world by continuous birth, death, old age and disease. Due to materialistic opulences, persons like Rāvaṇa become puffed up for sense gratification. Rāvaṇa even dared kidnap Sītā, who was both the wife of Lord Rāmacandra and the goddess of fortune, thinking that he would be able to enjoy the pleasure potency of the Lord. But actually, by such action, Rāvaṇa became vidhvaṁsita or ruined.

The individual soul and the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His Paramātmā feature are both sitting within this body, which is covered by gross and subtle elements. To understand this is to attain actual spiritual culture. There are two ways of advancing in spiritual culture—by the method of the impersonalist philosophers and by devotional service. The impersonalist comes to the conclusion that he and the Supreme Spirit are one, whereas devotees or personalists realize the Absolute Truth by understanding that the Absolute Truth is the supreme predominator and we living entities are predominated; therefore our duty is to serve Him. The Vedic injunctions say: tat tvam asi, \"You are the same,\" and so'ham, \"I am the same.\" The impersonalist conception of these mantras is that the Supreme Lord or the Absolute Truth and the living entity are one, but from the devotee's point of view these mantras assert that both the Supreme Lord and ourselves are of the same quality. Tat tvam asi, ayam ātmā brahma. Both the Supreme Lord and the living entity are spirit. Understanding this is self-realization. The human form of life is meant for understanding the Supreme Lord and oneself by spiritual cultivation of knowledge. One should not waste valuable life simply engaged in economic development and sense gratification.", + "In this verse the word kṣetra-vit is also important. This word is explained in Bhagavad-gītā: idaṁ śarīraṁ kaunteya kṣetram ity abhidhīyate (Bg. 13.2). This body is called kṣetra, or the field of activities, and the proprietors of the body, the individual soul and the Supersoul sitting within the body, are both called kṣetra-vit. But there is a difference between the two kinds of kṣetra-vit. One kṣetra-vit, or knower of the body, namely the Paramātmā or the Supersoul, is directing the individual soul. When we rightly take the direction of the Supersoul, our life becomes successful. He is directing from within and from without. From within He is directing as caitya-guru, or the spiritual master sitting within the heart. Indirectly He is also helping the living entity by manifesting Himself as the spiritual master outside. In both ways the Lord is giving directions to the living entity so that he may finish up his material activities and come back home, back to Godhead. The presence of the Supreme Soul and the individual soul within the body can be perceived by anyone by the fact that as long as the individual soul and the Supersoul are both living within the body, the body is always shining and fresh. But as soon as the Supersoul and the individual soul give up possession of the gross body, it immediately decomposes. One who is spiritually advanced can thus understand the real difference between a dead body and a living body. In conclusion, one should not waste his time by so-called economic development and sense gratification but should cultivate spiritual knowledge to understand the Supersoul and the individual soul and their relationship. In this way, by advancement of knowledge, one can achieve liberation and the ultimate goal of life. It is said that if one takes to the path of liberation, even rejecting his so-called duties in the material world, he is not a loser at all.

The rope and the snake argument is generally offered by the Māyāvādī philosophers. Therefore these words, which represent vivarta-vāda, are specifically mentioned herein. Actually Paramātmā, the Supersoul, is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and He is eternally liberated. In other words, the Supreme Personality of Godhead is living within this body along with the individual soul, and this is confirmed in the Vedas. They are likened to two friends sitting on the same tree. Yet Paramātmā is above the illusory energy. The illusory energy is called bahiraṅgā śakti or external energy, and the living entity is called taṭasthā śakti or marginal potency. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, the material energy, represented as earth, water, air, fire, sky, etc., and the spiritual energy, the living entity, are both energies of the Supreme Lord. Even though the energies and the energetic are identical, the living entity, individual soul, being prone to be influenced by the external energy, considers the Supreme Personality of Godhead to be one with himself.", + "The word prapadye is also significant in this verse, for it refers to the conclusion of the Bhagavad-gītā: sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja (Bg. 18.66). In another place the Lord says: bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate (Bg. 7.19). This prapadye or śaraṇaṁ vraja refers to the individual's surrender to the Supersoul. The individual soul, when surrendered, can understand that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although situated within the heart of the individual soul, is superior to the individual soul. The Lord is always transcendental to the material manifestation, even though it appears that the Lord and the material manifestation are one and the same. According to the Vaiṣṇava philosophy, He is one and different simultaneously. The material energy is a manifestation of His external potency, and since the potency is identical with the potent, it appears that the Lord and individual soul are one, but actually the individual soul is under the influence of material energy, and the Lord is always transcendental to it. Unless the Lord is superior to the individual soul, there is no question of prapadye or surrender unto Him. This word prapadye refers to the process of devotional service. Simply by nondevotional speculation on the rope and the snake, one cannot approach the Absolute Truth.

Similarly, the waves of desire for material enjoyment are so strong that they cannot be stopped by any process other than bhakti-yoga. The bhaktas, by their transcendental devotional service unto the lotus feet of the Lord, become so overwhelmed with transcendental bliss that automatically their desires for material enjoyment stop. The jñānīs and yogīs, who are not attached to the lotus feet of the Lord, simply struggle against the waves of desire. They are described in this verse as rikta-matayaḥ, which means devoid of devotional service. In other words, the jñānīs and yogīs, although trying to be free from the desires of material activities, actually become more and more entangled in false philosophical speculation or strenuous attempts to stop the activities of the senses.

Bhaja vāsudevam indicates that one who is engaged in the loving service of Kṛṣṇa, the son of Vasudeva, can very easily stop the waves of desires. As long as one continues to try to artificially stop the waves of desires, he will certainly be defeated. That is indicated in this verse. Desires for fruitive activities are strongly rooted, but the trees of desire can be uprooted completely by devotional service because devotional service employs superior desire. One can give up inferior desires when engaged in superior desires. To try to stop desires is impossible. One has to desire the Supreme in order not to be entangled in inferior desires. Jñānīs also maintain a desire to become one with the Supreme, but such desire is also considered to be kāma, lust. Similarly, the yogīs desire mystic power, and that is also kāma. And the bhaktas, not being desirous of any sort of material enjoyment, become purified. There is no artificial attempt to stop desire. Desire becomes a source of spiritual enjoyment under the protection of the toes of the lotus feet of the Lord. It is stated herein by the Kumāras that the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa are the ultimate reservoir of all pleasure. One should therefore take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord instead of trying unsuccessfully to stop desires for material enjoyment. As long as one is unable to stop the desire for material enjoyment, there is no possibility of becoming liberated from the entanglement of material existence. It may be argued that the waves of a river are incessantly flowing and that they cannot be stopped, but the waves of the river flow toward the sea. When the tide comes over the river, it overwhelms the flowing of the river, and the river itself becomes overflooded, and the waves from the sea become more prominent than the waves from the river. Similarly, a devotee with intelligence plans so many things for the service of the Lord in Kṛṣṇa consciousness that stagnant material desires become overflooded by the desire to serve the Lord. As confirmed by Yāmunācārya, since he has been engaged in the service of the lotus feet of the Lord, there is always a current of newer and newer desires flowing to serve the Lord, so much so that the stagnant desire of sex life becomes very insignificant. Yāmunācārya even says that he spits on such desires. Bhagavad-gītā also confirms: paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate (Bg. 2.59). The conclusion is that by developing a loving desire for the service of the lotus feet of the Lord, we subdue all material desires for sense gratification." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e4b1f4c5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,142 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 4.22.40", + "devanagari": "कृच्छ्रो महान् इह भवार्णवम् अप्लवेशां षड्वर्गनक्रम् असुखेन तितीर्षन्ति\nतत्त्वं हरेर्भगवतो भजनीयम् अंघ्रिं कृत्वोडुपं व्यसनम् उत्तर दुस्तरार्णम्", + "transliteration": "kṛcchro mahān iha bhavārṇavam aplaveśāṁ\nṣaḍ-varga-nakram asukhena titīrṣanti\ntat tvaṁ harer bhagavato bhajanīyam aṅghriṁ\nkṛtvoḍupaṁ vyasanam uttara dustarārṇam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kṛcchraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "troublesome" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahān", + "meanings": [ + "very great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "here in this life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhava-arṇavam", + "meanings": [ + "ocean of material existence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aplava-īśām", + "meanings": [ + "of the nondevotees, who have not taken shelter of the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṭ-varga", + "meanings": [ + "six senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nakram", + "meanings": [ + "sharks" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asukhena", + "meanings": [ + "with great difficulty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "titīrṣanti", + "meanings": [ + "cross over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajanīyam", + "meanings": [ + "worthy of worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅghrim", + "meanings": [ + "the lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtvā", + "meanings": [ + "making" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uḍupam", + "meanings": [ + "boat" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyasanam", + "meanings": [ + "all kinds of dangers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttara", + "meanings": [ + "cross over" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dustara", + "meanings": [ + "very difficult" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arṇam", + "meanings": [ + "the ocean." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The ocean of nescience is very difficult to cross because it is infested with many dangerous sharks.

Another name of this ocean is Vaitaraṇī. In that Vaitaraṇī ocean, which is the Causal Ocean, there are innumerable universes floating like footballs.

Thus there is an ever-existing spiritual nature which is beyond this material nature. Even though all the material universes are annihilated again and again in the Causal Ocean, the Vaikuṇṭha planets, which are spiritual, exist eternally and are not subject to dissolution. The human form of life gives the living entity a chance to cross the ocean of nescience, which is this material universe, and enter into the spiritual sky. Although there are many methods or boats by which one can cross the ocean, the Kumāras recommend that the King take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord, just as one would take shelter of a good boat. Nondevotees, who do not take shelter of the Lord's lotus feet, try to cross the ocean of nescience by other methods (karma, jñāna and yoga), but they have a great deal of trouble. Indeed, sometimes they become so busy simply enjoying their troubles that they never cross the ocean. There is no guarantee that the nondevotees will cross the ocean, but even though they manage to cross, they have to undergo severe austerities and penances. On the other hand, anyone who takes to the process of devotional service and has faith that the lotus feet of the Lord are safe boats to cross that ocean is certain to cross very easily and comfortably.", + "Pṛthu Mahārāja is therefore advised to take the boat of the lotus feet of the Lord to easily cross over all dangers.

One often sees that many so-called svāmīs and yogīs sometimes advertise themselves as competent to cross the ocean of nescience and to help others cross, but in actuality they are found to be simply victims of their own senses.

Since King Pṛthu was thus offered the kingdom by the virtue of the mercy of great saintly persons, he did not want to divide his kingdom among saints like the Kumāras. When a father is eating food, he may, out of compassion, offer the remnants of his food to his son. Although such food may be already chewed by the father, it cannot be offered to the father again.

There are still many holders of the title rāya—Rāya Bāhādur, Rāya Chaudhuri and so on. The dārāḥ, or wife, is not permitted to be offered to the brāhmaṇas. Everything is offered to worthy persons who are able to accept charity, but nowhere is it found that one offers his wife; therefore in this case the reading rāyaḥ is more accurate than dārāḥ. Also, since Pṛthu Mahārāja offered everything to the Kumāras, the word kośaḥ (treasury) need not be separately mentioned. Kings and emperors used to keep a private treasury which was known as ratna-bhāṇḍa. The ratna-bhāṇḍa was a special treasury room which contained special jewelries, such as bangles, necklaces and so on, which were presented to the king by the citizens. This jewelry was kept separate from the regular treasury house where all the collected revenues were kept. Thus Pṛthu Mahārāja offered his stock of private jewelry to the lotus feet of the Kumāras.

If it were actually the property of the brāhmaṇas, how could it be offered again to them? In this regard, Śrīpāda Śrīdhara Svāmī has explained that this offering is just like the servant's offering of food to his master. The food already belongs to the master, for the master has purchased it, but the servant, by preparing food, makes it acceptable to the master and thus offers it to him. In this way, everything belonging to Pṛthu Mahārāja was offered to the Kumāras." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/45.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/45.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..51cd2078 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/22/verses/45.json @@ -0,0 +1,96 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 22, + "verse": 45, + "reference": "SB 4.22.45", + "devanagari": "सैनापत्यं च राज्यं च दण्डनेतृत्वम् एव च\nसर्व लोकाधिपत्यं च वेदशास्त्रविद् अर्हति", + "transliteration": "saināpatyaṁ ca rājyaṁ ca\ndaṇḍa-netṛtvam eva ca\nsarva lokādhipatyaṁ ca\nveda-śāstra-vid arhati", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sainā-patyam", + "meanings": [ + "post of commander-in-chief" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājyam", + "meanings": [ + "post of ruler over the kingdom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daṇḍa", + "meanings": [ + "ruling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "netṛtvam", + "meanings": [ + "leadership" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka-adhipatyam", + "meanings": [ + "proprietorship of the planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda-śāstra-vit", + "meanings": [ + "one who knows the purport of Vedic literature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arhati", + "meanings": [ + "deserves." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Since only a person who is completely educated according to the principles of Vedic knowledge deserves to be commander-in-chief, ruler of the state, the first to chastise and the proprietor of the whole planet, Pṛthu Mahārāja offered everything to the Kumāras.", + "purport": [ + "In this verse it is very clearly stated that a kingdom, state or empire must be governed under the instructions of saintly persons and brāhmaṇas like the Kumāras. When monarchy ruled throughout the world, the monarch was actually directed by a board of brāhmaṇas and saintly persons. The king, as the administrator of the state, executed his duties as a servant of the brāhmaṇas. It was not that the kings or brāhmaṇas were dictators, nor did they consider themselves proprietors of the state. The kings were also well versed in Vedic literatures and thus were familiar with the injunction of Śrī Īśopaniṣad: īśāvāsyam idaṁ sarvam—everything that exists belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In Bhagavad-gītā Lord Kṛṣṇa also claims that He is the proprietor of all planetary systems (sarva-loka-maheśvaram). Since this is the case, no one can claim to be proprietor of the state. The king, president or head of the state should always remember that he is not the proprietor but the servant.", + "In the present age, the king or president forgets that he is the servant of God and thinks of himself as servant of the people. The present democratic government is proclaimed to be a people's government, a government by the people and for the people, but this type of government is not sanctioned by the Vedas. The Vedas maintain that a kingdom should be governed for the purpose of satisfying the Supreme Personality of Godhead and should therefore be ruled by a representative of the Lord. The head of a state should not be appointed if he is bereft of all Vedic knowledge. In this verse it is clearly stated (veda-śāstra-vid arhati) that all high government posts are especially meant for persons who are well conversant with the teachings of the Vedas. In the Vedas there are definite instructions defining how a king, commander-in-chief, soldier and citizen should behave. Unfortunately there are many so-called philosophers in the present age who give instruction without citing authority, and many leaders follow their unauthorized instruction. Consequently people are not happy.", + "The modern theory of dialectical communism, set forth by Karl Marx and followed by communist governments, is not perfect. According to Vedic communism, no one in the state should ever starve. Presently there are many bogus institutions which are collecting funds from the public for the purpose of giving food to starving people, but these funds are invariably misused. According to the Vedic instructions, the government should arrange things in such a way that there will be no question of starvation. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is stated that a householder must see to it that even a lizard or a snake does not starve. They also must be given food. In actuality, however, there is no question of starvation because everything is the property of the Supreme Lord, and He sees to it that there is ample arrangement for feeding everyone. In the Vedas it is said: eko bahūnāṁ yo vidadhāti kāmān (Kaṭha Up. 2.2.13). The Supreme Lord supplies the necessities of life to everyone, and there is no question of starvation. If anyone starves, it is due to the mismanagement of the so-called ruler, governor or president.", + "It is clear therefore that a person who is not well versed in the Vedic injunctions (veda-śāstra-vit) should not run for election as president, governor, etc. Formerly kings were rājarṣis, which meant that although they were serving as kings, they were as good as saintly persons because they would not transgress any of the injunctions of the Vedic scriptures and would rule under the direction of great saintly persons and brāhmaṇas. According to this arrangement, modern presidents, governors and chief executive officers are all unworthy of their posts because they are not conversant with Vedic administrative knowledge and they do not take direction from great saintly persons and brāhmaṇas. Because of his disobedience to the orders of the Vedas and the brāhmaṇas, King Vena, Pṛthu Mahārāja's father, was killed by the brāhmaṇas.

He remained at his position as a kṣatriya to rule the world and at the same time remained transcendental to such activities by satisfying the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

This method includes nine items: hearing, chanting, remembering, serving, worshiping the Deity, praying, carrying out orders, serving Kṛṣṇa as friend and sacrificing everything for Him.

Pṛthu Mahārāja was special in that although he was given license to remain a householder, and although he possessed immense opulences in his kingdom, he never engaged in sense gratification.

In this regard the secret of success depends on the parents' acceptance of the various purificatory methods known as saṁskāras. The first saṁskāra, the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra or child-begetting saṁskāra, is compulsory, especially for the higher castes, the brāhmaṇas and the kṣatriyas. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, sex life which is not against religious principles is Kṛṣṇa Himself, and according to religious principles, when one wants to beget a child he must perform the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra before having sex. The mental state of the father and mother before sex will certainly affect the mentality of the child to be begotten. A child who is begotten out of lust may not turn out as the parents desire. As stated in the śāstras, yathā yonir yathā bījam. Yathā yoniḥ indicates the mother, and yathā bījam indicates the father. If the mental state of the parents is prepared before they have sex, the child which they will beget will certainly reflect their mental condition. It is therefore understood by the words ātma-sammatān that both Pṛthu Mahārāja and Arci underwent the garbhādhāna purificatory process before begetting children, and thus they begot all their sons according to their desires and purified mental states.

In other words, Mahārāja Pṛthu was softer than a rose flower and harder than a thunderbolt.

Because Grandfather Bhīṣmadeva was a brahmacārī, he was quite fit to distinguish a brahmacārī from a vyabhicārī. Although Pṛthu Mahārāja was a householder and father of five children, he was still considered to be most controlled. One who begets Kṛṣṇa conscious children for the benefit of humanity is actually a brahmacārī. One who simply begets children like cats and dogs is not a proper father. The word brahmacārī also refers to one who acts on the platform of Brahman or devotional service. In the impersonal Brahman conception, there is no activity, yet when one performs activities in connection with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is to be known as brahmacārī. Thus Pṛthu Mahārāja was an ideal brahmacārī and gṛhastha simultaneously. Viṣvaksenānuvartiṣu refers to those devotees who are constantly engaged in the service of the Lord. Other devotees must follow in their footsteps. Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura said, ei chaya gosāñi yāṅra, mui tāṅra dāsa.

As soon as there is some discrepancy in the execution of duties, the Lord appears on earth, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā: yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati bhārata (Bg. 4.7).", + "Since there were so many discrepancies during the reign of King Vena, the Lord sent His most confidential devotee, Mahārāja Pṛthu to settle things. Therefore, after executing the orders of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and settling the affairs of the world, Mahārāja Pṛthu was ready to retire. He had been exemplary in his governmental administration, and now he was to become exemplary in his retirement. He divided all his property amongst his sons and appointed them to rule the world, and then he went to the forest with his wife. It is significant in this connection that it is said that Mahārāja Pṛthu retired alone and at the same time took his wife with him. According to Vedic principles, when retiring from family life, one can take his wife with him, for the husband and wife are considered to be one unit. Thus they can both combinedly perform austerities for liberation. This is the path that Mahārāja Pṛthu, who was an exemplary character, followed, and this is also the way of Vedic civilization. One should not simply remain at home until the time of death, but should separate from family life at a timely moment and prepare himself to go back to Godhead. As a śaktyāveśa incarnation of God who had actually come from Vaikuṇṭha as a representative of Kṛṣṇa, Mahārāja Pṛthu was certain to go back to Godhead.

Instead of advancing in spiritual life, many have fallen into material habits and even in Vṛndāvana have become victims of illicit sex, gambling and intoxication. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has been introduced in the Western countries, but it is not possible for Westerners to go to the forest and practice the severe austerities which were ideally practiced by Pṛthu Mahārāja or Rūpa Gosvāmī.

The person who is Kṛṣṇa conscious is most intelligent because in Kali-yuga it is not at all possible to undergo such severe austerities. We need only follow great personalities like Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu. In His Śikṣāṣṭaka, Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu wrote, paraṁ vijayate śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtanam: all glories to the holy names of Lord Kṛṣṇa, which from the very beginning purify the heart and immediately liberate one.

Pṛthu Mahārāja worshiped Kṛṣṇa millions of years ago, for Pṛthu happened to be a descendant of the family of Mahārāja Dhruva, who reigned for 36,000 years during the Satya-yuga age. Unless his total life-span was 100,000 years, how could Dhruva Mahārāja reign over the world for 36,000 years? The point is that Kṛṣṇa worship existed at the beginning of creation and has continued to exist throughout Satya-yuga, Tretā-yuga and Dvāpara-yuga, and now it is continuing in Kali-yuga. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, Kṛṣṇa not only appears in this millennium of Brahmā's life, but in every millennium. Therefore worship of Kṛṣṇa is conducted in all millenniums. It is not that Kṛṣṇa worship began only when Kṛṣṇa appeared on this planet five thousand years ago. This is a foolish conclusion that is not substantiated by Vedic literatures.", + "Also of significance in this verse are the words ārirādhayiṣuḥ kṛṣṇam acarat tapa uttamam. Mahārāja Pṛthu underwent severe types of austerities for the express purpose of worshiping Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is so kind, especially in this age, that He appears in the transcendental vibration of His holy name. As is said in the Nārada-pañcarātra, ārādhito yadi haris tapasā tataḥ kim. If Kṛṣṇa is worshiped, if He is the goal of advancement, there is no need for one to execute severe types of tapasya, because one has already reached his destination. If, after executing all types of tapasya, one cannot reach Kṛṣṇa, all his tapasya has no value, for without Kṛṣṇa all austerity is simply wasted labor. Śrama eva hi kevalam (Bhāg. 1.2.8). We should therefore not be discouraged just because we cannot go to the forest and practice severe austerities. Our life is so short that we must strictly adhere to the principles laid down by the Vaiṣṇava ācāryas and peacefully execute Kṛṣṇa consciousness. There is no need to become despondent. Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura recommends: ānande bala hari, bhaja vṛndāvana, śri-guru-vaiṣṇava-pade majāiyā mana. For a transcendental blissful life, chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, come worship the holy place of Vṛndāvana, and always engage in the service of the Lord, of the spiritual master, and of the Vaiṣṇavas. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is therefore very safe and easy. We have only to execute the order of the Lord and fully surrender unto Him. We have only to execute the order of the spiritual master, preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness and follow in the path of the Vaiṣṇavas. The spiritual master represents both Lord Kṛṣṇa and the Vaiṣṇavas; therefore by following the instructions of the spiritual master and by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, everything will be all right." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/08.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/08.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..26f16f87 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/08.json @@ -0,0 +1,97 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 8, + "reference": "SB 4.23.8", + "devanagari": "तेन क्रमानुसिद्धेन ध्वस्तकर्ममलाशयः\nप्राणायामैः सन्निरुद्ध षड्वर्गश्छिन्नबन्धनः", + "transliteration": "tena kramānusiddhena\ndhvasta-karma-malāśayaḥ\nprāṇāyāmaiḥ sanniruddha-\nṣaḍ-vargaś chinna-bandhanaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tena", + "meanings": [ + "thus by practicing such austerities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krama", + "meanings": [ + "gradually" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anu", + "meanings": [ + "constantly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "siddhena", + "meanings": [ + "by perfection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhvasta", + "meanings": [ + "smashed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karma", + "meanings": [ + "fruitive activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mala", + "meanings": [ + "dirty things" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇāyāmaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by practice of prāṇāyāma-yoga, breathing exercises" + ] + }, + { + "word": "san", + "meanings": [ + "being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niruddha", + "meanings": [ + "stopped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṭ-vargaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind and the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "chinna-bandhanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "completely cut off from all bondage." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "By thus practicing severe austerities, Mahārāja Pṛthu gradually became steadfast in spiritual life and completely free of all desires for fruitive activities.

From the Nārada-pañcarātra we understand that if one attains the stage of pure devotional service, he also attains all the opulences derived from fruitive activities, empiric philosophical speculation and mystic yogic practice. Śrīla Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura therefore prayed in his Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta: \"My dear Lord, if I have unflinching devotion to You, You become manifest before me personally, and the results of fruitive activity and empiric philosophical speculation—namely religion, economic development, sense gratification and liberation—become like personal attendants and remain standing before me as if awaiting my order.\" The idea here is that the jñānīs, by culture of brahma-vidyā, spiritual knowledge, struggle very hard to get out of the clutches of material nature, but a devotee, by dint of his advancement in devotional service, automatically becomes detached from his material body.

Śuddha-sattva refers to that platform which is above the modes of material nature, including the mode of goodness. In the material world, the mode of goodness is considered to be representative of the highest perfection, but one has to transcend this mode and come to the stage of śuddha-sattva, or pure goodness, where the three qualities of material nature cannot act.", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura gives the following example: If one has strong digestive power, after eating he automatically lights a fire within his stomach to digest everything and does not need to take medicine to aid his digestion. Similarly, the fire of devotional service is so strong that a devotee does not need to act separately to attain perfect knowledge or detachment from material attractions. A jñānī may become detached from material attractions by prolonged discussions on subjects of knowledge and may in this way finally come to the brahma-bhūta stage, but a devotee does not have to undergo so much trouble. By virtue of his devotional service, he attains the brahma-bhūta stage without a doubt. The yogīs and jñānīs are always doubtful about their constitutional position; therefore they mistakenly think of becoming one with the Supreme. However, a devotee's relationship with the Supreme becomes manifest beyond all doubt, and he immediately understands that his position is that of eternal servant of the Lord. The jñānīs and yogīs may think of attaining liberation without rendering devotional service, but actually this is not possible because their intelligence is not as pure as that of a pure devotee. In other words, the jñānīs and yogīs cannot become factually liberated unless they become elevated to the position of devotees.", + "Āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padaṁ tataḥ patanty adho 'nādṛta-yuṣmad-aṅghrayaḥ (Bhāg. 10.2.32). The jñānīs and yogīs may rise to the highest position, Brahman realization, but because of their lack of devotion unto the lotus feet of the Lord, they again fall down into material nature. Therefore jñāna and yoga should not be accepted as the real processes for liberation. By discharging devotional service, Mahārāja Pṛthu automatically transcended all these positions. Since Mahārāja Pṛthu was a śaktyāveśa incarnation of the Supreme Lord, he did not have to act in any way to attain liberation. He came from the Vaikuṇṭha world, or spiritual sky, in order to execute the will of the Supreme Lord on earth. Consequently he was to return home, back to Godhead, without having to execute jñāna, yoga or karma. Although Pṛthu Mahārāja was eternally a pure devotee of the Lord, he nonetheless adopted the process of devotional service in order to teach the people in general the proper process for executing the duties of life and ultimately returning home, back to Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7f0c6236 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,148 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 4.23.12", + "devanagari": "छिन्नान्यधीर् अधिगतात्मगतिर्निरीहस्तत्तत्यजे ऽच्छिनद् इदं वयुनेन येन\nतावन्न योगगतिभिर्यतिर् अप्रमत्तो यावद्गदाग्रजकथासु रतिं न कुर्यात्", + "transliteration": "chinnānya-dhīr adhigatātma-gatir nirīhas\ntat tatyaje 'cchinad idaṁ vayunena yena\ntāvan na yoga-gatibhir yatir apramatto\nyāvad gadāgraja-kathāsu ratiṁ na kuryāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "chinna", + "meanings": [ + "being separated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anya-dhīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all other concepts of life (the bodily concept of life)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhigata", + "meanings": [ + "being firmly convinced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-gatiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the ultimate goal of spiritual life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirīhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desireless" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tatyaje", + "meanings": [ + "gave up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acchinat", + "meanings": [ + "he had cut" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayunena", + "meanings": [ + "with the knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāvat", + "meanings": [ + "so long" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga-gatibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the practice of the mystic yoga system" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the practicer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apramattaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without any illusion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yāvat", + "meanings": [ + "so long" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gadāgraja", + "meanings": [ + "of Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kathāsu", + "meanings": [ + "words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ratim", + "meanings": [ + "attraction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuryāt", + "meanings": [ + "do it." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When he became completely free from the conception of bodily life, Mahārāja Pṛthu realized Lord Kṛṣṇa sitting in everyone's heart as the Paramātmā.

This knowledge is attained after many, many births, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā: bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate (Bg. 7.19). In the paramahaṁsa stage of life, one fully realizes Kṛṣṇa as everything: vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ. When one understands fully that Kṛṣṇa is everything and that Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the highest perfection of life, he becomes a paramahaṁsa, or mahātmā. Such a mahātmā or paramahaṁsa is very rare to find. A paramahaṁsa or pure devotee is never attracted by haṭha-yoga or speculative knowledge.

One who has attained the ultimate summit of yoga practice can live in the body as long as he likes, or, as long as he is not completely perfect, leave the body to go anywhere within or outside the universe. Some yogīs leave their bodies to go to the higher planetary systems and enjoy the material facilities therein. However, intelligent yogīs do not wish to waste their time within this material world at all; they do not care for the material facilities in higher planetary systems but are interested in going directly to the spiritual sky, back home, back to Godhead.", + "From the description in this verse, it appears that Mahārāja Pṛthu had no desire to promote himself to the higher planetary systems. He wanted to return home immediately, back to Godhead. Although Mahārāja Pṛthu stopped all practice of mystic yoga after realizing Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he nonetheless took advantage of his previous practice and immediately placed himself on the brahma-bhūta platform in order to accelerate his return to Godhead. The aim of this particular system of āsana, known as the sitting posture for liberation, or muktāsana, is to attain success in kuṇḍalinī-cakra and gradually raise the life from the mūlādhāra-cakra to the svādhiṣṭhāna-cakra, then to the maṇipūra-cakra, the anāhata-cakra, the viśuddha-cakra, and finally to the ājñā-cakra. When the yogī reaches the ājñā-cakra, between the two eyebrows, he is able to penetrate the brahma-randhra, or the hole in his skull, and go to any planet he desires up to the spiritual kingdom of Vaikuṇṭha, or Kṛṣṇaloka. The conclusion is that one has to come to the brahma-bhūta stage for going back to Godhead. However, those who are in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, or who are practicing bhakti-yoga (śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ smaraṇaṁ pāda-sevanam), can return to Godhead without even practicing the muktāsana process. The purpose of muktāsana practice is to come to the brahma-bhūta stage, for without being on the brahma-bhūta stage, one cannot be promoted to the spiritual sky. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā: māṁ ca yo 'vyabhicāreṇa bhakti-yogena sevate/ sa guṇān samatītyaitān brahma-bhūyāya kalpate (Bg. 14.26). The bhakti-yogī, practicing bhakti-yoga, is always situated on the brahma-bhūta stage (brahma-bhūyāya kalpate).

As far as Mahārāja Pṛthu was concerned, he had already practiced this process, and since he did not want to wait for the time when his death would occur naturally, he took advantage of the ṣaṭ-cakra penetration process and thus gave up the body according to his own free will and immediately entered the spiritual sky." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/15.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/15.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..70cd0040 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/15.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 15, + "reference": "SB 4.23.15", + "devanagari": "उत्सर्पयंस्तु तं मूर्ध्नि क्रमेणावेश्य निःस्पृहः\nवायुं वायौ क्षितौ कायं तेजस्तेजस्य् अयूयुजत्", + "transliteration": "utsarpayaṁs tu taṁ mūrdhni\nkrameṇāveśya niḥspṛhaḥ\nvāyuṁ vāyau kṣitau kāyaṁ\ntejas tejasy ayūyujat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "utsarpayan", + "meanings": [ + "thus placing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "the air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mūrdhni", + "meanings": [ + "on the head" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krameṇa", + "meanings": [ + "gradually" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āveśya", + "meanings": [ + "placing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niḥspṛhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being freed from all material desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāyum", + "meanings": [ + "the air portion of the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāyau", + "meanings": [ + "in the total air covering the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣitau", + "meanings": [ + "in the total covering of earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāyam", + "meanings": [ + "this material body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tejaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the fire in the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tejasi", + "meanings": [ + "in the total fire of the material covering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayūyujat", + "meanings": [ + "mixed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In this way, Pṛthu Mahārāja gradually raised his air of life up to the hole in his skull, whereupon he lost all desire for material existence.

Although the individual living entity (jīva) and the Lord are both situated within the material energy, the Lord is directing the movements of the jīva soul by offering him different types of bodies through the material energy, and thus the living entity is wandering throughout the universes in various forms of body and becomes implicated in different situations, partaking of the reactions of fruitive activities.", + "When Pṛthu Mahārāja became spiritually powerful by the enhancement of his spiritual knowledge, jñāna and renunciation of material desires, he became a prabhu, or master of his senses (sometimes called gosvāmī or svāmī).

In this verse the word svarūpasthaḥ is also very significant. The real identity of the individual soul lies in understanding or attaining the knowledge that he is eternally a servant of Kṛṣṇa. This understanding is called svarūpopalabdhi. By culturing devotional service, the devotee gradually comes to understand his actual relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This understanding of one's pure spiritual position is called svarūpopalabdhi, and when one attains that stage he can understand how he is related with the Supreme Personality of Godhead as a servant or friend, or as a parent or conjugal lover.

The word pāda means \"position,\" and Prabhupāda indicates that he is given the position of prabhu, or the Supreme Personality of Godhead, for he acts on behalf of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Unless one is a prabhu, or controller of the senses, he cannot act as spiritual master. He is authorized by the Supreme Prabhu, or Lord Kṛṣṇa.

Another question may be raised in this connection. Since Pṛthu Mahārāja was a power incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, śaktyāveśa-avatāra, why did he have to execute the regulative principles in order to become a prabhu? Because he appeared on this earth as an ideal king and because it is the duty of the king to instruct the citizens in the execution of devotional service, he followed all the regulative principles of devotional service in order to teach others. Similarly, Caitanya Mahāprabhu, although Kṛṣṇa Himself, taught us how to approach Kṛṣṇa as a devotee. It is said, āpani ācari' bhakti śikhāinu sabāre. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu instructed others in the process of devotional service by setting the example Himself through His own personal actions. Similarly, Pṛthu Mahārāja, although a śaktyāveśa-avatāra incarnation, still behaved exactly as a devotee in order to achieve the position of prabhu. Furthermore, svarūpasthaḥ means complete liberation. As it is said, hitvānyathā rūpaṁ svarūpeṇa avasthitiḥ: when a living entity abandons the activities of māyā and attains the position from which he can execute devotional service, his state is called svarūpasthaḥ, or complete liberation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bff6dd45 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 4.23.19", + "devanagari": "अर्चिर्नाम महाराज्ञी तत्पत्न्य् अनुगता वनम्\nसुकुमार्य् अतदर्हा च यत्पद्भ्यां स्पर्शनं भुवः", + "transliteration": "arcir nāma mahā-rājñī\ntat-patny anugatā vanam\nsukumāry atad-arhā ca\nyat-padbhyāṁ sparśanaṁ bhuvaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "arciḥ nāma", + "meanings": [ + "of the name Arci" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-rājñī", + "meanings": [ + "the Queen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-patnī", + "meanings": [ + "the wife of Mahārāja Pṛthu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anugatā", + "meanings": [ + "who followed her husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vanam", + "meanings": [ + "in the forest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sukumārī", + "meanings": [ + "very delicate body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "a-tat-arhā", + "meanings": [ + "who did not deserve" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat-padbhyām", + "meanings": [ + "by the touch of whose feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sparśanam", + "meanings": [ + "touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "on the earth." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Queen, the wife of Pṛthu Mahārāja, whose name was Arci, followed her husband into the forest.

But when the husband takes the renounced order of life, namely sannyāsa, the wife is to return home and become a saintly woman, setting an example for her children and daughters-in-law and showing them how to live a life of austerity.", + "When Caitanya Mahāprabhu took sannyāsa, His wife, Viṣṇupriyā-devī, although only sixteen years old, also took the vow of austerity due to her husband's leaving home. She chanted her beads, and after finishing one round, she collected one grain of rice. In this way, as many rounds as she chanted, she would receive the same number of rice grains and then cook them and so take prasāda. This is called austerity. Even today in India, widows, or women whose husbands have taken sannyāsa, follow the principles of austerity, even though they live with their children. Pṛthu Mahārāja's wife, Arci, was steadily determined to execute the duty of a wife, and while her husband was in the forest, she followed him in eating only fruits and leaves and lying down on the ground. Since a woman's body is considerably more delicate than a man's, Queen Arci became very frail and thin, Parikarśitā. When one engages in austerities, his body generally becomes lean and thin. Becoming fat is not a very good qualification in spiritual life because a person who is engaged in spiritual life must reduce the comforts of the body—namely eating, sleeping and mating—to a minimum. Although Queen Arci became very thin from living in the forest according to regulative principles, she was not unhappy for she was enjoying the honor of serving her great husband." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5d65a608 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,139 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 4.23.21", + "devanagari": "देहं विपन्नाखिलचेतनादिकं पत्युः पृथिव्या दयितस्य चात्मनः\nआलक्ष्य किंचिच्च विलप्य सा सती चिताम् अथारोपयद् अद्रिसानुनि", + "transliteration": "dehaṁ vipannākhila-cetanādikaṁ\npatyuḥ pṛthivyā dayitasya cātmanaḥ\nālakṣya kiñcic ca vilapya sā satī\ncitām athāropayad adrisānuni", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "deham", + "meanings": [ + "body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vipanna", + "meanings": [ + "completely failing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akhila", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cetana", + "meanings": [ + "feeling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādikam", + "meanings": [ + "symptoms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of her husband" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛthivyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dayitasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the merciful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "also of herself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ālakṣya", + "meanings": [ + "by seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kiñcit", + "meanings": [ + "very little" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilapya", + "meanings": [ + "lamenting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sā", + "meanings": [ + "she" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satī", + "meanings": [ + "the chaste" + ] + }, + { + "word": "citām", + "meanings": [ + "unto the fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "now" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āropayat", + "meanings": [ + "placed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adri", + "meanings": [ + "hill" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sānuni", + "meanings": [ + "on the top." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When Queen Arci saw that her husband, who had been so merciful to her and the earth, no longer showed symptoms of life, she lamented for a little while and then built a fiery pyre on top of a hill and placed the body of her husband on it.", + "purport": [ + "After seeing all the life symptoms in her husband stop, the Queen lamented for a while.

kṣīṇe puṇye martya-lokaṁ viśanti", + "\"When they have thus enjoyed heavenly sense pleasure, they return to this mortal planet again.\" (Bg. 9.21) Thus after exhausting the results of pious activities, one has to come again to the lower planetary systems and begin a new chapter of pious activities. It is therefore said in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitam: \"The path of liberation is not at all secure unless one attains the devotional service of the Lord.\" (Bhāg. 1.5.12) Even if one is promoted to the impersonal brahmajyoti, he runs every chance of falling down into this material world. If it is possible to fall down from the brahmajyoti, which is beyond the higher planetary systems in this material world, then what can be said of the ordinary yogīs and karmīs who can only be elevated to the higher material planets? Thus the wives of the denizens of the higher planetary systems did not very much appreciate the results of karma, jñāna and yoga." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/28.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/28.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7d58e754 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/23/verses/28.json @@ -0,0 +1,91 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 28, + "reference": "SB 4.23.28", + "devanagari": "स वंचितो बतात्मध्रुक्कृच्छ्रेण महता भुवि\nलब्ध्वापवर्ग्यं मानुष्यं विषयेषु विषज्जते", + "transliteration": "sa vañcito batātma-dhruk\nkṛcchreṇa mahatā bhuvi\nlabdhvāpavargyaṁ mānuṣyaṁ\nviṣayeṣu viṣajjate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vañcitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "cheated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bata", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-dhruk", + "meanings": [ + "envious of himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛcchreṇa", + "meanings": [ + "with great difficulty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahatā", + "meanings": [ + "by great activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvi", + "meanings": [ + "in this world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "labdhvā", + "meanings": [ + "by achieving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpavargyam", + "meanings": [ + "the path of liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mānuṣyam", + "meanings": [ + "in the human form of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣayeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in the matter of sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣajjate", + "meanings": [ + "becomes engaged." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Any person who engages himself within this material world in performing activities that necessitate great struggle, and who, after obtaining a human form of life—which is a chance to attain liberation from miseries—undertakes the difficult tasks of fruitive activities, must be considered to be cheated and envious of his own self.", + "purport": [ + "In this material world people are engaged in different activities simply to achieve a little success in sense gratification.

Similarly, yogīs are engaged in achieving a similar goal by accepting the tedious practices of mystic yoga. Jñānīs are engaged in philosophical speculation in order to gain release from the clutches of material nature. In these ways everyone is engaged in performing very difficult tasks simply for the gratification of the senses. All of these are considered to be engaged in sense gratificatory activities (or viṣaya) because they all demand some facility for material existence. Actually the results of such activities are temporary, as Kṛṣṇa Himself proclaims in Bhagavad-gītā: antavat tu phalaṁ teṣām: \"The fruits [of those who worship the demigods] are limited and temporary.\" (Bg. 7.23) Thus the fruits of the activities of the yogīs, karmīs and jñānīs are ephemeral. Moreover, Kṛṣṇa says, tad bhavaty alpa-medhasām: \"They are simply meant for men of small intelligence.\" (Bg. 7.23) The word viṣaya denotes sense gratification. The karmīs flatly state that they want sense gratification. The yogīs also want sense gratification, but they want it to a higher degree. It is their desire to show some miraculous results through the practice of yoga. Thus they strive very hard to achieve success in becoming smaller than the smallest or greater than the greatest, or in creating a planet like the earth, or, as scientists, by inventing so many wonderful machines. Similarly, the jñānīs are also engaged in sense gratification, for they are simply interested in becoming one with the Supreme. Thus the aim of all these activities is sense gratification to a higher or a lower degree.

There are five kinds of liberation, and one is called sāyujya-mukti, or merging into the existence of the Supreme or the impersonal Brahman effulgence.

In the Vaikuṇṭha planets both husbands and wives are extraordinarily beautiful, and they are attracted to one another, but they do not enjoy sex life.

One who is advanced in devotional service is never attracted by sex life, and as soon as one becomes detached from sex life and proportionately attached to the service of the Lord, he actually experiences living in the Vaikuṇṭha planets.

After this, the bridegroom and bride look at one another and become attracted for life. When the bridegroom finds the bride very beautiful, the attraction between them immediately becomes very strongly fixed. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, men and women are naturally attracted to one another, and when they are united by marriage that attraction becomes very strong. Being so strongly attracted, the bridegroom attempts to set up a nice homestead and eventually a good field for producing grains. Then children come, then friends and then wealth. In this way the male becomes more and more entangled in the material conceptions of life, and he begins to think, \"This is mine,\" and \"It is I who am acting.\" In this way the illusion of material existence is perpetuated.", + "The words śukīm iva are also significant, for the fire-god Agni became attracted by the beauty of Śatadruti while she was circumambulating the bridegroom Prācīnabarhi, just as he had previously been attracted to the beauty of Śukī, the wife of Saptarṣi. When the fire-god had been present long ago at the assembly of Saptarṣi, he was attracted by the beauty of Śukī when she was circumambulating in the same way. Agni's wife, named Svāhā, took the form of Śukī and enjoyed sex life with Agni. Not only the fire-god Agni but the heavenly god Indra and sometimes even Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva—all very highly situated demigods—are subject to being attracted by sex at any time.

To give birth to a child is the natural function of a woman, and therefore a woman becomes more and more beautiful as she gives birth to one child after another. In the case of Śatadruti, however, she was so beautiful that she attracted the whole universe at her marriage ceremony. Indeed, she attracted all the learned and exalted demigods simply by the tinkling of her ankle bells. This indicates that all the demigods wanted to see her beauty completely, but they were not able to see it because she was fully dressed and covered with ornaments. Since they could only see the feet of Śatadruti, they became attracted by her ankle bells, which tinkled as she walked. In other words, the demigods became captivated by her simply by hearing the tinkling of her ankle bells. They did not have to see her complete beauty. It is sometimes understood that a person becomes lusty just by hearing the tinkling of bangles on the hands of women, or the tinkling of ankle bells, or just by seeing a woman's sari. Thus it is concluded that woman is the complete representation of māyā. Although Viśvāmitra Muni was engaged in practicing mystic yoga with closed eyes, his transcendental meditation was broken when he heard the tinkling of bangles on the hands of Menakā. In this way Viśvāmitra Muni became a victim of Menakā and fathered a child who is universally celebrated as Śakuntalā. The conclusion is that no one can save himself from the attraction of woman, even though he be an exalted demigod or an inhabitant of the higher planets. Only a devotee of the Lord, who is attracted by Kṛṣṇa, can escape the lures of woman.

Sometimes Kālī becomes so infuriated that she indiscriminately kills all kinds of asuras. There is a popular picture of Goddess Kālī in which she wears a garland composed of the heads of the asuras and holds in her left hand a captured head and in her right hand a great khaḍga, or chopper, for killing asuras.

Upa also means greater, smaller or nearer. Considering all these points, the reservoir of water which was seen by the Pracetās while they were traveling was actually a large bay or lake. And unlike the sea or ocean, which has turbulent waves, this reservoir was very calm and quiet. Indeed, the water was so clear that it seemed like the mind of some great soul. There may be many great souls—jñānīs, yogīs and bhaktas, or pure devotees, are also called great souls—but they are very rarely found. One can find many great souls amongst yogīs and jñānīs, but a truly great soul, a pure devotee of the Lord who is fully surrendered to the Lord, is very rarely found (sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ, Bg. 7.19). A devotee's mind is always calm, quiet and desireless because he is always anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyam, and he has no desire other than to serve Kṛṣṇa as His personal servant, friend, father, mother or conjugal lover. Due to his association with Kṛṣṇa, a devotee is always very calm and cool. It is also significant that within that reservoir all the aquatics were also very calm and quiet. Because the disciples of a devotee have taken shelter of a great man, they become very calm and quiet and are not agitated by the waves of the material world.", + "This material world is often described as an ocean of nescience. In such an ocean, everything is agitated. The mind of a great devotee is also like an ocean or a very large lake, but there is no agitation. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā: vyavasāyātmikā buddhir ekeha kuru-nandana (Bg. 2.41). Those who are fixed in the service of the Lord are not agitated by anything. It is also stated in Bhagavad-gītā: yasmin sthito na duḥkhena guruṇāpi vicālyate (Bg. 6.22). Even if he suffers some reversals in life, a devotee is never agitated. Therefore whoever takes shelter of a great soul or a great devotee becomes pacified. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is stated: kṛṣṇa-bhakta—niṣkāma, ataeva 'śānta' (Cc. Madhya 19.149). A devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa is always peaceful because he has no desire, whereas the yogīs, karmīs and jñānīs have so many desires to fulfill. One may argue that the devotees have desires, for they wish to go home, back to Godhead, but such a desire does not agitate the mind. Although he wishes to go back to Godhead, a devotee is satisfied in any condition of life.

These are considered to be fruitive activities, for the karmīs consider Lord Viṣṇu to be one of the demigods like Lord Śiva and Lord Brahmā. Because they consider Lord Viṣṇu to be on the same level with the demigods, they contend that surrendering to the demigods is as good as surrendering unto Vāsudeva.

A devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa does not disrespect Lord Śiva but worships Lord Śiva as the most exalted devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Consequently whenever a devotee worships Lord Śiva, he prays to Lord Śiva to achieve the favor of Kṛṣṇa, and he does not request material profit. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that generally people worship demigods for some material profit. Kāmais tais tair hṛtajñānāḥ (Bg. 7.20). Driven by material lust, they worship demigods, but a devotee never does so, for he is never driven by material lust.

Not only are the devotees dear to Lord Śiva, but he respects them as much as he respects the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Similarly, devotees of the Supreme Lord also worship Lord Śiva as the most dear devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa. They do not worship him as a separate Personality of Godhead. It is stated in the list of nāma-aparādhas that it is an offense to think that the chanting of the name of Hari and the chanting of Hara or Śiva, are the same. The devotees must always know that Lord Viṣṇu is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and that Lord Śiva is His devotee. A devotee should be offered respect on the level of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and sometimes even more respect. Indeed, Lord Rāma, the Personality of Godhead Himself, sometimes worshiped Lord Śiva. If a devotee is worshiped by the Lord, why should a devotee not be worshiped by other devotees on the same level with the Lord? This is the conclusion.

As said in the Vedas (nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām, Kaṭha, 2.2.13), the Supreme Being, the Personality of Godhead, is the chief living being amongst all living beings. There are different kinds of individual living beings—some of them are in this material world, and some are in the spiritual world. Those who are in the spiritual world are known to be completely self-realized because on the spiritual platform the living entity is not forgetful of his service to the Lord. Therefore in the spiritual world all those who are in the devotional service of the Lord are eternally fixed, for they understand the position of the Supreme Being, as well as their individual constitution. Thus amongst self-realized souls, the Lord is known as the perfectly self-realized soul. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām.

The Lord is situated as the Supersoul in everyone's heart, but He is so kind to His devotees that He gives them instructions by which they may continue to progress. When they receive instructions from the all-perfect, there is no chance of their being misled. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā: dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ taṁ yena mām upayānti te (Bg. 10.10). The Lord is always ready to give instructions to the pure devotee so that the devotee can advance further and further in devotional service. Since the Lord gives instructions as Sarvātmā, the Supersoul, Lord Śiva offers Him respect with the words sarvātmā ātmane namaḥ. The individual soul is called ātmā, and the Lord is also called ātmā as well as Paramātmā. Being situated in everyone's heart, the Lord is known as the supreme ātmā.

The conclusion is that Lord Śiva wanted to remain a fixed devotee of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva. As explained in the following verses, Lord Śiva never desires to merge into the existence of the Supreme Lord like the impersonalists. Rather, he thinks that it would be good fortune for him to continue to be fixed in the understanding of the Lord as the Supreme Being.

Since Lord Śiva considers himself to be one of the products of the material world, his senses are under the control of the supreme creator. The Supreme Lord is also known as Hṛṣīkeśa, master of the senses, which indicates that our senses and sense objects are formed by the Supreme Lord. As such, He can control our senses and out of His mercy engage them in the service of the master of the senses. In the conditioned state, the living entity struggles in this material world and engages his senses for material satisfaction. However, if the living entity is graced by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he can engage these very senses in the service of the Lord. Lord Śiva desires not to be misled by the material senses but to engage always in the service of the Lord without being subject to contamination by materialistic influences.

Although conditioned souls become very easily illusioned by these conditions in the material world, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as the Supersoul, Vāsudeva, is never agitated by these transformations. Therefore it is said here (kūṭasthāya) that He is always peaceful and devoid of agitation because of His prowess, which is described herein as sva-rociṣe, indicating that He is illuminated by His own transcendental position. In other words, the individual soul, although within the illumination of the Supreme, sometimes falls down from that illumination because of his tiny position, and when he falls down he enters into material conditional life.

The mind has to be engaged in meditation on the lotus feet of the Lord in order to execute devotional service. It is also stated in Bhagavad-gītā,", + "sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo

It is also indicated in this verse that Lord Aniruddha is the sun-god by virtue of His expansions. Since the predominating deity of the sun is an expansion of Lord Aniruddha, Lord Śiva also prays to the sun-god in this verse.", + "Lord Kṛṣṇa, by His quadruple expansion (Vāsudeva, Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna and Aniruddha), is the Lord of psychic action—namely, thinking, feeling, willing and acting. Lord Śiva prays to Lord Aniruddha as the sun-god who is the controlling deity of the external material elements which constitute the construction of the material body. According to Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura, the word paramahaṁsa is also another name for the sun-god. The sun-god is addressed herein as nibhṛtātmane, which indicates that he always maintains the various planets by manipulating the rainfall. The sun-god evaporates water from the seas and oceans and then forms the water into clouds and distributes it over land. When there is sufficient rainfall, grains are produced, and these grains maintain living entities in each and every planet. The sun-god is also addressed herein as pūrṇa, or complete, because the rays emanating from the sun have no end. For millions and millions of years since the creation of this universe, the sun-god has been supplying heat and light without diminution. The word paramahaṁsa is applied to persons who are completely cleansed. When there is sufficient sunshine, the mind remains clear and transparent—in other words, the sun-god helps the mind of the living entity to become situated on the platform of paramahaṁsa. Thus Lord Śiva prays to Aniruddha to be kind upon him so that his mind will always be in the perfect state of cleanliness and will be engaged in the devotional service of the Lord. Just as fire sterilizes all unclean things, the sun-god also keeps everything sterilized, especially dirty things within the mind, thus enabling one to attain elevation to the platform of spiritual understanding." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8ff0e574 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 4.24.37", + "devanagari": "स्वर्गापवर्गद्वाराय नित्यं शुचिषदे नमः\nनमो हिरण्यवीर्याय चातुर्होत्राय तन्तवे", + "transliteration": "svargāpavarga-dvārāya\nnityaṁ śuci-ṣade namaḥ\nnamo hiraṇya-vīryāya\ncāturhotrāya tantave", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "svarga", + "meanings": [ + "the heavenly planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apavarga", + "meanings": [ + "the path of liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvārāya", + "meanings": [ + "unto the door of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nityam", + "meanings": [ + "eternally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuci-sade", + "meanings": [ + "unto the most purified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "my obeisances unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "my obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hiraṇya", + "meanings": [ + "gold" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vīryāya", + "meanings": [ + "semina" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cātur-hotrāya", + "meanings": [ + "the Vedic sacrifices of the name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tantave", + "meanings": [ + "unto one who expands." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My Lord, O Aniruddha, You are the authority by which the doors of the higher planetary systems and liberation are opened.

In Brahma-saṁhitā Kṛṣṇa is described as the cause of all causes; therefore He is addressed herein as kāraṇātmane. His very personality is the original cause of everything, the root of everything and the seed of everything. As described in the Vedānta-sūtra, janmādy asya yataḥ (1.1.2): the Absolute Truth is the supreme cause of all emanations.", + "The word sāṅkhya-yogeśvarāya is also significant herein, for Kṛṣṇa is described in Bhagavad-gītā as Yogeśvara, the master of all mystic powers. Without possessing inconceivable mystic powers, one cannot be accepted as God. In this age of Kali, those who have a little fragmental portion of mystic power claim to be God, but such pseudo Gods can only be accepted as fools, for only Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Person who possesses all mystic and yogic perfections. The sāṅkhya-yoga system popular at the present moment was propounded by the atheist Kapila, but the original sāṅkhya-yoga system was propounded by an incarnation of Kṛṣṇa also named Kapila, the son of Devahūti. Similarly, Dattātreya, another incarnation of Kṛṣṇa, also explained the sāṅkhya-yoga system. Thus Kṛṣṇa is the origin of all sāṅkhya-yoga systems and mystic yoga powers.", + "The words purāṇāya puruṣāya are also worthy of special attention. In Brahma-saṁhitā, Kṛṣṇa is accepted as the ādi-puruṣa, the original person, or the original enjoyer. In Bhagavad-gītā, Lord Kṛṣṇa is also accepted as purāṇa-puruṣa, the oldest person. Although He is the oldest of all personalities, He is also the youngest of all, or nava-yauvana. Another significant word is dharmāya. Since Kṛṣṇa is the original propounder of all kinds of religious principles, it is said: dharmaṁ tu sākṣād bhagavat-praṇītam. No one can introduce a new type of religion, for religion is already there, having been established by Lord Kṛṣṇa. In Bhagavad-gītā Kṛṣṇa informs us of the original dharma and asks us to give up all kinds of religious principles. The real dharma is surrender unto Him. In the Mahābhārata, it is also said:", + "ye ca veda-vido viprā ye cādhyātma-vido janāḥ

We have various senses—the powers of seeing, tasting, smelling, touching, etc.—and all the propensities of our senses can be satisfied when the senses are engaged in the service of the Lord. Hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate (Nārada-pañcarātra). \"Bhakti means engaging all the senses in the service of the master of the senses, Hṛṣīkeśa.\" These material senses, however, cannot be engaged in the service of the Lord; therefore one has to become free from all designations. Sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ tatparatvena nirmalam. One has to become free from all designation or false egotism and thus become purified.

In Buddhist temples there are forms of Lord Buddha in meditation, but these are not worshiped like the forms of the Lord in Vaiṣṇava temples (forms like Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa, Sītā-Rāma or Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa). Amongst the different sampradāyas (Vaiṣṇava sects) either Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa or Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa is worshiped. Lord Śiva wants to see that form perfectly, just as the devotees want to see it. The words rūpaṁ priyatamaṁ svānām are specifically mentioned here, indicating that Lord Śiva wants to see that form which is very dear to the devotees. The word svānām is especially significant because only the devotees are very, very dear to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The jñānīs, yogīs and karmīs are not particularly dear, for the karmīs simply want to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead as their order supplier. The jñānīs want to see Him to become one with Him, and the yogīs want to see Him partially represented within their heart as Paramātmā, but the bhaktas, or the devotees, want to see Him in His complete perfection.

The conclusion is that Lord Śiva wants to see Him in complete perfection and not in the impersonalist or voidist way. Although the Lord is one in His various forms (advaitam acyutam anādim), still His form as the young enjoyer of the gopīs and companion of the cowherd boys (kiśora-mūrti) is the most perfect form.

As the rainfall glistens, His bodily features also glisten. Indeed, He is the sum total of all beauty. The Lord has four arms and an exquisitely beautiful face with eyes like lotus petals, a beautiful highly raised nose, a mind-attracting smile, a beautiful forehead and equally beautiful and fully decorated ears.", + "purport": [ + "After the scorching heat of the summer season, it is very pleasing to see dark clouds in the sky. As confirmed in Brahma-saṁhitā: barhāvataṁsam asitāmbuda-sundarāṅgam. The Lord wears a peacock feather in His hair, and His bodily complexion is just like a blackish cloud. The word sundara, or snigdha, means very pleasing, even when compared with kandarpa-koṭi-kamanīya. Kṛṣṇa's beauty is so pleasing that not even millions upon millions of Cupids can compare to it. The Lord's form as Viṣṇu is decorated in all opulence; therefore Lord Śiva is trying to see that most opulent form of Nārāyaṇa, or Viṣṇu. Generally the worship of the Lord begins with the worship of Nārāyaṇa or Viṣṇu, whereas the worship of Lord Kṛṣṇa and Rādhā is most confidential. Lord Nārāyaṇa is worshipable by the Pāñcarātrika-vidhi, or regulative principles, whereas Lord Kṛṣṇa is worshipable by the Bhāgavata-vidhi. No one can worship the Lord in the Bhāgavata-vidhi without going through the regulations of the Pāñcarātrika-vidhi. Actually neophyte devotees worship the Lord according to the Pāñcarātrika-vidhi, or the regulative principles enjoined in the Nārada-pañcarātra. Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa cannot be approached by the neophyte devotees; therefore temple worship according to regulative principles is offered to Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa. Although there may be a Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa vigraha, or form, the worship of the neophyte devotees is acceptable as Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa worship. Worship according to the Pāñcarātrika-vidhi is called vidhi-mārga, and worship according to the Bhāgavata-vidhi principles is called rāga-mārga. The principles of rāga-mārga are especially meant for devotees who are elevated to the Vṛndāvana platform.", + "The inhabitants of Vṛndāvana, the gopīs, mother Yaśodā, Nanda Mahārāja, the cowherd boys, the cows and everyone else—are actually on the rāga-mārga or Bhāgavata-mārga platform. However, they participate in five basic rasas—dāsya, sakhya, vātsalya, mādhurya and śānta. Although these five rasas are found in the Bhāgavata-mārga, the Bhāgavata-mārga is especially meant for vātsalya and mādhurya, or paternal and conjugal relationships. Yet there is the vipralambha-sakhya, the higher fraternal worship of the Lord especially enjoyed by the cowherd boys. Although there is friendship between Kṛṣṇa and the cowherd boys, this friendship is different from the aiśvarya friendship between Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna. When Arjuna saw the viśva-rūpa, the gigantic universal form of the Lord, he was afraid for having treated Kṛṣṇa as an ordinary friend; therefore he begged Kṛṣṇa's pardon. However, the cowherd boys who are friends of Kṛṣṇa in Vṛndāvana sometimes ride on the shoulders of Kṛṣṇa. They treat Kṛṣṇa equally, just as they treat one another, and they are never afraid of Him, nor do they ever beg His pardon. Thus the rāga-mārga, or Bhāgavata-mārga, friendship exists on a higher platform with Kṛṣṇa, namely the platform of vipralambha friendship. Paternal friendship, conjugal paternal service, as well as conjugal service, are visible in the Vṛndāvana rāga-mārga relationships.", + "Without serving Kṛṣṇa according to the vidhi-mārga regulative principles of the Pāñcarātrika-vidhi, unscrupulous persons want to jump immediately to the rāga-mārga principles. Such persons are called sahajiyā. There are also demons who enjoy depicting Kṛṣṇa and His pastimes with the gopīs, taking advantage of Kṛṣṇa by their licentious character. These demons who print books and write lyrics on the rāga-mārga principles are surely on the way to hell. Unfortunately, they lead others down with them. Devotees in Kṛṣṇa consciousness should be very careful to avoid such demons. One should strictly follow the vidhi-mārga regulative principles in the worship of Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa, although the Lord is present in the temple as Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa. Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa includes Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa; therefore when one worships the Lord according to the regulative principles, the Lord accepts the service in the role of Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa. In Nectar of Devotion full instructions are given about the vidhi-mārga worship of Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa or Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa. Although there are sixty-four kinds of offenses one can commit in vidhi-mārga worship, in rāga-mārga worship there is no consideration of such offenses because the devotees on that platform are very much elevated, and there is no question of offense. But if we do not follow the regulative principles on the vidhi-mārga platform and keep our eyes trained to spot offenses, we will not make progress.", + "In his description of Kṛṣṇa's beauty, Lord Śiva uses the words cārvāyata-catur-bāhu sujāta-rucirānanam, indicating the beautiful four-armed form of Nārāyaṇa, or Viṣṇu. Those who worship Lord Kṛṣṇa describe Him as sujāta-rucirānanam. In the Viṣṇu-tattva there are hundreds and thousands and millions of forms of the Supreme Lord, but of all these forms, the form of Kṛṣṇa is the most beautiful. Thus for those who worship Kṛṣṇa, the word sujāta-rucirānanam is used.", + "The four arms of Lord Viṣṇu have different purposes. The hands holding a lotus flower and conchshell are meant for the devotees, whereas the other two hands, holding a disc and mace or club, are meant for the demons. Actually all of the Lord's arms are auspicious, whether they are holding conchshells and flowers or clubs and discs. The demons killed by Lord Viṣṇu's cakra disc and club are elevated to the spiritual world, just like the devotees who are protected by the hands holding the lotus flower and conchshell. However, the demons who are elevated to the spiritual world are situated in the impersonal Brahman effulgence, whereas the devotees are allowed to enter into the Vaikuṇṭha planets. Those who are devotees of Lord Kṛṣṇa are immediately elevated to the Goloka Vṛndāvana planet.", + "The Lord's beauty is compared to rainfall because when the rain falls in the rainy season, it becomes more and more pleasing to the people. After the scorching heat of the summer season, the people enjoy the rainy season very much. Indeed, they even come out of their doors in the villages and enjoy the rainfall directly. Thus the Lord's bodily features are compared with the clouds of the rainy season. The devotees enjoy the Lord's beauty because it is a collection of all kinds of beauties. Therefore the word sarva-saundarya-saṅgraham is used. No one can say that the body of the Lord is wanting in beautiful parts. It is completely pūrṇam. Everything is complete: God's creation, God's beauty and God's bodily features. All these are so complete that all one's desires can become fully satisfied when one sees the beauty of the Lord. The word sarva-saundarya indicates that there are different types of beauties in the material and spiritual worlds, and that the Lord contains all of them. Both materialists and spiritualists can enjoy the beauty of the Lord. Because the Supreme Lord attracts everyone, including demons and devotees, materialists and spiritualists, He is called Kṛṣṇa. Similarly, His devotees also attract everyone. As mentioned in the Ṣaḍ-gosvāmī-stotra: dhīrādhīra-jana-priyau—the Gosvāmīs are equally dear to the dhīra (devotees) and adhīra (demons). Lord Kṛṣṇa was not very pleasing to the demons when He was present in Vṛndāvana, but the six Gosvāmīs were pleasing to the demons when they were present in Vṛndāvana. That is the beauty of the Lord's dealings with His devotees; sometimes the Lord gives more credit to His devotees than He takes for Himself. For instance, on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra, Lord Kṛṣṇa fought simply by giving directions. Yet it was Arjuna who took the credit for fighting. Nimitta-mātraṁ bhava savyasācin (Bg. 11.33). \"You, O Savyasācin [Arjuna], can be but an instrument in the fight.\" Everything was arranged by the Lord, but the credit of victory was given to Arjuna. Similarly, in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, everything is happening according to the predictions of Lord Caitanya, but the credit goes to Lord Caitanya's sincere servants. Thus the Lord is described herein as sarva-saundarya-saṅgraham." + ], + "verse_end": 46 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/47.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/47.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..45bce4c0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/47.json @@ -0,0 +1,172 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 47, + "reference": "SB 4.24.47-48", + "devanagari": "प्रीतिप्रहसितापांगम् अलकै रूपशोभितम्\nलसत्पंकजकिंजल्क दुकूलं मृष्टकुण्डलम्\nस्फुरत्किरीटवलय हारनूपुरमेखलम्\nशंखचक्रगदापद्म मालामण्युत्तमर्द्धिमत्", + "transliteration": "prīti-prahasitāpāṅgam\nalakai rūpa-śobhitam\nlasat-paṅkaja-kiñjalka-\ndukūlaṁ mṛṣṭa-kuṇḍalam\nsphurat-kirīṭa-valaya-\nhāra-nūpura-mekhalam\nśaṅkha-cakra-gadā-padma-\nmālā-maṇy-uttamarddhimat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "prīti", + "meanings": [ + "merciful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prahasita", + "meanings": [ + "smiling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apāṅgam", + "meanings": [ + "sidelong glance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alakaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with curling hair" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rūpa", + "meanings": [ + "beauty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śobhitam", + "meanings": [ + "increased" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lasat", + "meanings": [ + "glittering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paṅkaja", + "meanings": [ + "of the lotus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kiñjalka", + "meanings": [ + "saffron" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dukūlam", + "meanings": [ + "clothing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛṣṭa", + "meanings": [ + "glittering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuṇḍalam", + "meanings": [ + "earrings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sphurat", + "meanings": [ + "shiny" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kirīṭa", + "meanings": [ + "helmet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "valaya", + "meanings": [ + "bangles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hāra", + "meanings": [ + "necklace" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nūpura", + "meanings": [ + "ankle bells" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mekhalam", + "meanings": [ + "belt" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaṅkha", + "meanings": [ + "conchshell" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakra", + "meanings": [ + "wheel" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gadā", + "meanings": [ + "club" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padma", + "meanings": [ + "lotus flower" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mālā", + "meanings": [ + "garland" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṇi", + "meanings": [ + "pearls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttama", + "meanings": [ + "first class" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛddhimat", + "meanings": [ + "still more beautified on account of this." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Lord is superexcellently beautiful on account of His open and merciful smile and His sidelong glance upon His devotees.

Fearfulness is a creation of the bodily conception of life. As long as one is absorbed in the thought that he is this material body, he is fearful, and as soon as one is freed from this material conception, he becomes brahma-bhūta, or self-realized, and immediately becomes fearless.

The word \"meditation\" is very popular in this age amongst the common people, but they do not know the actual meaning of meditation. However, from Vedic literature we learn that the yogīs are always absorbed in meditation upon the lotus feet of the Lord. Dhyānāvasthita-tad-gatena manasā paśyanti yaṁ yoginaḥ (Bhāg. 12.13.1). This is the real business of the yogīs: to think of the lotus feet of the Lord. Lord Śiva therefore advises that one who is actually serious about purification must engage himself in this type of meditation or in the mystic yoga system, which will help him not only to see the Lord within constantly but to see Him eye to eye and become His associate in Vaikuṇṭhaloka or Goloka Vṛndāvana.", + "The word sva-dharmam (as in sva-dharmam anutiṣṭhatām) indicates that the system of varṇāśrama—which indicates the occupational duties of the brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra and which is the perfect institution for humanity—must be supported by bhakti-yoga if one at all wants security in life. Generally people think that simply by executing the occupational duties of a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya or śūdra, or the duty of a brahmacārī, gṛhastha, vānaprastha or sannyāsī, one becomes fearless or securely attains liberation, but factually unless all these occupational duties are accompanied by bhakti-yoga, one cannot become fearless. In Bhagavad-gītā there are descriptions of karma-yoga, jñāna-yoga, bhakti-yoga, dhyāna-yoga, etc., but unless one comes to the point of bhakti-yoga, these other yogas cannot help one attain the highest perfection of life. In other words, bhakti-yoga is the only means for liberation. We find this conclusion also in Caitanya-caritāmṛta in a discussion between Lord Caitanya and Rāmānanda Rāya regarding a human being's liberation from this material world. In that discussion Rāmānanda Rāya referred to the execution of varṇāśrama-dharma, and Lord Caitanya indicated (eho bāhya) that the varṇāśrama-dharma was simply external. Lord Caitanya wanted to impress upon Rāmānanda Rāya that simply by executing the duties of varṇāśrama-dharma one is not guaranteed liberation. Finally Rāmānanda Rāya referred to the process of bhakti-yoga: sthāne sthitāḥ śruti-gatāṁ tanu-vāṅ-manobhiḥ (Bhāg. 10.14.3). Regardless of one's condition of life, if he practices bhakti-yoga, which begins with hearing (śruti-gatām) the transcendental messages of the Lord through the mouths of devotees, he gradually conquers the unconquerable God.", + "God is known to be unconquerable, but one who submissively hears the words of a self-realized soul conquers the unconquerable. The conclusion is that if one is serious about liberation, he not only should execute the occupational duties of varṇāśrama-dharma but should also engage in bhakti-yoga by beginning hearing from a realized soul.

A bhakta always wants to retain his individuality in order to render service to the Lord. Indeed, he considers promotion to the upper planetary systems to be no better than a will-o'-the-wisp. Temporary material happiness holds no value for a devotee. The devotee is in such an exalted position that he is not interested in the actions of karma or jñāna. The resultant actions of karma and jñāna are so insignificant to a devotee situated on the transcendental platform that he is not in the least interested in them.

The conclusion is that without bhakti-yoga, without rendering devotional service to the Lord, even an impersonalist cannot understand the Brahma-tattva, the Brahman feature. In the Vedānta-sūtra it is stated: athāto brahma-jijñāsā. This means that Brahman, Paramātmā, or Parabrahman should be understood. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam also the Absolute Truth is described as the one without a second, but He is realized in three features—impersonal Brahman, localized Paramātmā and the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is the ultimate issue, and in this verse Lord Śiva confirms that ultimately the Absolute Truth is a person. He clearly says: tat tvaṁ brahma paraṁ jyotir ākāśam iva vistṛtam. Here is a common example: a successful businessman may have many factories and offices, and everything rests on his order. If someone says that the entire business rests on such and such a person, it does not mean that the person is bearing all the factories and offices on his head.

There are also different cosmic manifestations—namely, the spiritual world and the material world—as well as different types of living entities. Some living entities are conditioned, and others are eternally free. The eternally free living entities are called nitya-mukta, for they never come in contact with the material energy. However, some living entities are conditioned in this material world, and thus they think themselves separated from the Supreme Lord. Due to their contact with the material energy, their existence is always troublesome. Being always in distress, the conditioned soul considers the material energy to be very much disturbing. This fact is explained by a Vaiṣṇava kavi, or poet: kṛṣṇa bhuli' sei jīva anādi-bahir-mukha/ ataeva māyā tāre deya saṁsāra-duḥkha [Madhya 20.117]. When the living entity forgets the Supreme Lord and wants to enjoy himself independently, imitating the Supreme Lord, he is captured by the false notion that he is the enjoyer and is separated from the Supreme Lord. This material energy is therefore very much troublesome to the spiritual energy, the living entity, but the material energy is never troublesome to the Supreme Lord. Indeed, for the Supreme Lord, both material and spiritual energy are the same. In this verse Lord Śiva explains that the material energy is never troublesome to the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord is always independent, but because the living entities are not independent—due to their false idea of becoming independently happy—the material energy is troublesome. Consequently the material energy creates differentiation.", + "Because the Māyāvādī philosophers cannot understand this, they want to be relieved from the material energy. However, because a Vaiṣṇava philosopher is in full knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he finds no disturbance even in the material energy. This is because he knows how to utilize the material energy for the service of the Lord. In the government, the criminal department and civil department may appear different in the eyes of the citizens, but in the eyes of the government both departments are one and the same. The criminal department is troublesome for the criminal but not for the obedient citizen. Similarly, this material energy is troublesome for the conditioned soul, but it has nothing to do with the liberated souls who are engaged in the service of the Lord. Through the puruṣa-avatāra Mahā-Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead created the whole cosmic manifestation. Simply by breathing out all the universes, the Lord creates and maintains the cosmic manifestation as Lord Viṣṇu. Then as Saṅkarṣaṇa, He annihilates the cosmic manifestation. Yet despite the creation, maintenance and destruction of the cosmos, the Lord is not affected. The various activities of the Lord must be very disturbing to the tiny living entities, but since the Lord is supremely great, He is never affected. Lord Śiva or any other pure devotee can see this clearly without being blinded by bheda-buddhi, or differentiation. For a devotee, the Lord is the Supreme Spirit Soul. Since He is supremely powerful, His various powers are also spiritual. For a devotee, there is nothing material, for material existence only means forgetfulness of the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/62.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/62.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2ae8d3ed --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/24/verses/62.json @@ -0,0 +1,142 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 62, + "reference": "SB 4.24.62", + "devanagari": "क्रियाकलापैर् इदम् एव योगिनः श्रद्धान्विताः साधु यजन्ति सिद्धये\nभूतेन्द्रियान्तःकरणोपलक्षितं वेदे च तन्त्रे च त एव कोविदाः", + "transliteration": "kriyā-kalāpair idam eva yoginaḥ\nśraddhānvitāḥ sādhu yajanti siddhaye\nbhūtendriyāntaḥkaraṇopalakṣitaṁ\nvede ca tantre ca ta eva kovidāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kriyā", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalāpaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by processes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoginaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transcendentalists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śraddhā-anvitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with faith and conviction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhu", + "meanings": [ + "properly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajanti", + "meanings": [ + "worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "siddhaye", + "meanings": [ + "for perfection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūta", + "meanings": [ + "the material energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "indriya", + "meanings": [ + "senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antaḥ-karaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upalakṣitam", + "meanings": [ + "symptomized by" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vede", + "meanings": [ + "in the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tantre", + "meanings": [ + "in the corollaries of the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "Your Lordship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kovidāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "those who are experts." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Lord, Your universal form consists of all five elements—the senses, mind, intelligence, false ego (which is material) and the Paramātmā, Your partial expansion who is the director of everything.

Why do learned and expert scholars distinguish between matter and spirit? In answer to these questions, Lord Śiva says that spirit and matter are not creations of various philosophers, but are manifested by Lord Viṣṇu, as described in this verse: tvam eka ādyaḥ puruṣaḥ. Spiritual and material categories are made possible by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but actually there are no such distinctions for the living entities who are eternally engaged in the service of the Lord. There is only a material world for those who want to imitate the Lord and become enjoyers. Indeed, the material world is nothing but forgetfulness of the original Supreme Personality of Godhead, the creator of everything. The distinction between matter and spirit is created by the sleeping energy of the Lord when the Lord wants to give some facility to those living entities who want to imitate the Lord in His enjoyment. It is only for them that this material world is created by the dormant energy of the Lord. For instance, sometimes children want to imitate their mother and cook in the kitchen, and at such a time the mother supplies them with some toys so that the children can imitate her cooking. Similarly, when some of the living entities want to imitate the activities of the Lord, this material cosmic manifestation is created for them by the Lord. The material creation is therefore caused by the Lord through His material energy. It is by the glance of the Lord that the material energy is activated. At that time the three material qualities are set into motion, and the material energy is manifested first in the form of the mahat-tattva, then egotism, then ether, then air, fire, water and earth. After the creation, the living entities are impregnated in the cosmic manifestation, and they emerge as Lord Brahmā and the seven great ṛṣis, then as different demigods. From the demigods come human beings, animals, trees, birds, beasts and everything else. The original cause, however, is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as verified herein—tvam eka ādyaḥ puruṣaḥ.

Actually the word prabhava (creation) only refers to this material world, for since the spiritual world is eternally existing, there is no question of creation. In the catuḥślokī of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the Lord says: aham evāsam evāgre (Bhāg. 2.9.33). \"I was existing in the beginning before the creation.\" In the Vedas it is also said, eko nārāyaṇa āsīt: \"Before the creation there was only Nārāyaṇa.\" This is also confirmed by Śaṅkarācārya: nārāyaṇaḥ paro 'vyaktāt (Gīta-bhāṣya). \"Nārāyaṇa is transcendental to the creation.\" Since all the activities of Nārāyaṇa are spiritual, when Nārāyaṇa said, \"Let there be creation,\" that creation was all-spiritual.

Human society is exactly like a beehive, for everyone is engaged in collecting honey from various flowers, or collecting money from various sources and creating large empires for common enjoyment. However, after these empires are created, the bites of other nations have to be suffered. Sometimes nations declare war upon one another, and the human beehives become sources of misery. Although human beings are creating their beehives in order to enjoy the sweetness of their senses, they are at the same time suffering from the bites of other persons or nations. The Supreme Personality of Godhead as Paramātmā is simply witnessing all these activities. The conclusion is that both the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the jīvas enter into this material world.

Hiraṇyakaśipu, the father of Prahlāda, always denied the existence of the Lord, and he tried to kill his five-year-old boy due to the boy's unflinching faith in God. However, in due course of time the Lord appeared as Nṛsiṁhadeva and killed Hiraṇyakaśipu in the presence of his son. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, this killing process is natural. Jīvo jīvasya jīvanam: \"One animal is food for another animal.\" (Bhāg. 1.13.47) A frog is eaten by a snake, a snake is eaten by a mongoose, and the mongoose is eaten by another animal. In this way the process of destruction goes on by the supreme will of the Lord. Although we do not see the hand of the Supreme Lord directly, we can feel the presence of that hand through the Lord's process of destruction. We can see the clouds scattered by the wind, although we cannot see how this is being done because it is not possible to see the wind.

One can search out the Supreme Lord very easily within his heart, for He is situated in every living entity's heart. In this verse the process of worshiping the Lord is considered to be very easy and complete, for anyone can sit down anywhere and in any condition of life and simply chant the holy names of the Lord.

When Dhruva Mahārāja became perfect by austerity and saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead eye to eye, he was offered any kind of benediction he wanted. However, Dhruva replied that he did not want anything, for he was perfectly satisfied with the benediction of seeing the Lord. Except for the service of the Supreme Lord, whatever we want is called illusion, māyā. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said: jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa' (Cc. Madhya 20.108). Every living entity is an eternal servant of the Lord; therefore when one engages in the service of the Lord, he realizes the highest perfection of life. A faithful servant can fulfill any desire by the grace of the master, and one who engages in the transcendental loving service of the Lord has nothing to aspire for separately. All his desires are fulfilled simply by engaging constantly in the Lord's loving service.

When King Barhiṣat was considering retiring from the royal duties, he sent his sons to perform austerities in order to become perfect kings for the welfare of the citizens. At the same time King Barhiṣat was being instructed by the great sage Nārada about the material world and the living entity who wants to enjoy it. It is therefore very clear how the kings and princes were trained to take charge of a kingdom. Welfare activities for the benefit of the citizens were aimed at understanding the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The human form of life is especially meant for understanding God, our relationship with Him and our activities in His service. Because the kings took charge of the spiritual education of the citizens, both the king and the citizens were happy in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. In this regard, we should remember that the monarchical hierarchy of Prācīnabarhiṣat comes from Mahārāja Dhruva, a great devotee of the Lord and the most celebrated disciple of Nārada Muni. King Prācīnabarhiṣat was then too much engaged in fruitive activities due to performing different types of yajñas. One can actually be promoted to higher planetary systems or to the heavenly kingdoms by performing various yajñas, but there is no question of liberation or going back home, back to Godhead. When the great sage Nārada saw that a descendant of Mahārāja Dhruva was being misled by fruitive activities, he took compassion upon him and personally came to instruct him about the ultimate benediction of life, bhakti-yoga. How Nārada Muni indirectly introduced the bhakti-yoga system to King Prācīnabarhiṣat is very interestingly described in this Twenty-fifth Chapter." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4a091af9 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 4.25.2", + "devanagari": "रुद्रगीतं भगवतः स्तोत्रं सर्वे प्रचेतसः\nजपन्तस्ते तपस्तेपुर्वर्षाणाम् अयुतं जले", + "transliteration": "rudra-gītaṁ bhagavataḥ\nstotraṁ sarve pracetasaḥ\njapantas te tapas tepur\nvarṣāṇām ayutaṁ jale", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "rudra-gītam", + "meanings": [ + "the song sung by Lord Śiva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "stotram", + "meanings": [ + "prayer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarve", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pracetasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the princes known as the Pracetās" + ] + }, + { + "word": "japantaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "reciting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "all of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "austerity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tepuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṣāṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of years" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayutam", + "meanings": [ + "10,000" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jale", + "meanings": [ + "within the water." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "All the Pracetā princes simply stood in the water for ten thousand years and recited the prayers given to them by Lord Śiva.", + "purport": [ + "Of course in the modern age one may be amazed how the princes could stand in the water for ten thousand years.

Of course for the neophytes the routine of devotional service may be very painful, but at least they have the hope that they will ultimately be able to avoid all kinds of distresses and achieve the highest perfectional stage of happiness. For the common karmīs, there is no such hope because even if they are promoted to the higher planetary systems, they are not guaranteed freedom from the miseries of birth, old age, disease and death. Even Lord Brahmā, who is situated in the highest planetary system (Brahmaloka), has to die. Lord Brahmā's birth and death may be different from an ordinary man's, but within this material world he cannot avoid the distresses of birth, old age, disease and death.

In the Western countries it is not unusual for one to take birth in a rich aristocratic family, nor is it unusual for one to have a good education and a very beautiful body, but this does not mean that Westerners are free from the distresses of life. Although at the present moment the younger generation in Western countries has sufficient education, beauty and wealth, and although there is enough food, clothing and facilities for sense gratification, they are in distress. Indeed, they are so distressed that they become \"hippies,\" and the laws of nature force them to accept a wretched life. Thus they go about unclean and without shelter or food, and they are forced to sleep in the street. It can be concluded that one cannot become happy by simply performing pious activities. It is not a fact that those who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth are free from the material miseries of birth, old age, disease and death.

On the basis of such understanding, Nārada Muni warns the King that the animals killed in sacrifices by the King await him at his death in order to avenge themselves. Nārada Muni is not contradicting himself here. Nārada Muni wanted to convince the King that overindulgence in animal sacrifice is risky because as soon as there is a small discrepancy in the execution of such a sacrifice, the slaughtered animal may not be promoted to a human form of life. Consequently the person performing sacrifice will be responsible for the death of the animal, just as much as a murderer is responsible for killing another man. When animals are killed in a slaughterhouse, six people connected with the killing are responsible for the murder. The person who gives permission for the killing, the person who kills, the person who helps, the person who purchases the meat, the person who cooks the flesh and the person who eats it, all become entangled in the killing.

This is nothing but the history of King Prācīnabarhiṣat told in a different way. In other words, this is an allegorical presentation. The word purañjana means \"one who enjoys in a body.\" This is clearly explained in the next few chapters. Because a person entangled in material activities wants to hear stories of material activities, Nārada Muni turned to the topics of King Purañjana, who is none other than King Prācīnabarhiṣat. Nārada Muni did not, however, deprecate the value of performing sacrifices in which animals are sacrificed. Lord Buddha, however, directly rejected all animal sacrifice. Śrīla Jayadeva Gosvāmī has stated: nindasi yajña-vidher ahaha śruti-jātam. The word śruti-jātam indicates that in the Vedas animal sacrifice is recommended, but Lord Buddha directly denied Vedic authority in order to stop animal sacrifice. Consequently Lord Buddha is not accepted by the followers of the Vedas. Because he does not accept the authority of the Vedas, Lord Buddha is depicted as an agnostic or atheist.

It is very difficult for a mūḍha to understand the ultimate goal of life. In the propagation of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, we actually see that many people are not attracted because they are mūḍhas engaged in fruitive activity. It is said: upadeśo hi mūrkhāṇāṁ prakopāya na śāntaye (Hitopadeśa). If good instructions are given to a foolish rascal, he simply becomes angry and turns against the instructions instead of taking advantage of them. Because Nārada Muni knew this very well, he indirectly instructed the King by giving him the history of his entire life. In order to wear a gold or diamond nose pin or earring, one has to pierce the ear or nose. Such pain endured for the sake of sense gratification is endured on the path of karma-kāṇḍa, the path of fruitive activity. If one wishes to enjoy something in the future, he has to endure trouble in the present. If one wants to become a millionaire in the future and enjoy his riches, he has to work very hard at the present moment in order to accumulate money. This is karma-kāṇḍīya. Those who are too much attached to such a path undergo the risk anyway. Nārada Muni wanted to show King Prācīnabarhiṣat how one undergoes great troubles and miseries in order to engage in fruitive activity. A person who is very much attached to material activity is called viṣayī. A viṣayī is an enjoyer of viṣaya, which means eating, sleeping, mating and defending. Nārada Muni is indirectly indicating through the story of King Purañjana that eating, sleeping, mating and defending are troublesome and risky.", + "The words itihāsam (history) and purātanam (old) indicate that although a living entity lives within the material body, the history of the living entity within the material body is very old. In this regard, Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura has sung: anādi karama-phale, padi' bhavārṇava jale, taribāre nā dekhi upāya. \"Due to my past fruitive activities I have fallen into the water of material existence, and I cannot find any way to get out of it.\" Every living entity is suffering in this material existence from past activities; therefore everyone has a very old history. Foolish material scientists have manufactured their own theories of evolution, which are simply concerned with the material body. But actually this is not the real evolution.

The word śravaḥ means fame. The living entity is famous from ancient times, for as stated in Bhagavad-gītā, na jāyate mriyate vā (Bg. 2.20). \"The living entity is never born and never dies.\" Because he is eternal, his activities are eternal, although they are performed in different types of bodies. Na hanyate hanyamāne śarīre (Bg. 2.20). \"He does not die, even after the annihilation of the body.\" Thus the living entity transmigrates from one body to another and performs various activities. In each body the living entity performs so many acts. Sometimes he becomes a great hero—just like Hiraṇyakaśipu and Kaṁsa, or in the modern age Napoleon or Hitler. The activities of such men are certainly very great, but as soon as their bodies are finished, everything else is finished. Then they remain in name only. Therefore a living entity may be called bṛhac-chravāḥ; he may have a great reputation for various types of activities. Nonetheless, he has a friend whom he does not know. Materialistic persons do not understand that God is present as the Supersoul and situated within the heart of every living entity. Although the Paramātmā sits beside the jīvātmā as a friend, the jīvātmā, or living entity, does not know it. Consequently he is described as avijñāta-sakhā, meaning \"one who has an unknown friend.\" The word avijñāta-ceṣṭitaḥ is also significant because a living entity works hard under the direction of the Paramātmā and is carried away by the laws of nature. Nonetheless, he thinks himself independent of God and independent of the stringent laws of material nature. It is stated in Bhagavad-gītā:", + "acchedyo 'yam adāhyo 'yam

Because he cannot be killed by any weapon, burnt into ashes by fire, soaked or moistened by water, nor dried up by air, he is considered to be immune to material reactions. Although he is changing bodies, he is not affected by the material conditions. He is placed under the material conditions, and he acts according to the directions of his friend, the Supersoul.

The word prabhu means master, but actually the living entity is not a master; he is the eternal servant of God. When the living entity abandons the shelter of God, Kṛṣṇa, and tries to become a prabhu independently, he travels all over the creation. There are 8,400,000 species of life and millions and millions and trillions of planets within the creation.

When the living entity is in the body of a crow, he eats all kinds of refuse, even pus and mucus, and enjoys it.

Being part and parcel of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the living entity is also seeking complete enjoyment. However, complete enjoyment cannot be achieved separate from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In his wanderings in the different species of life, the living entity may taste some type of enjoyment in one body or another, but full enjoyment of the senses cannot be obtained in any material body. Thus Purañjana, the living entity, wanders in different types of bodies but everywhere meets frustration in his attempt to enjoy. In other words, the spiritual spark covered by matter cannot fully enjoy the senses in any circumstance in material life. A deer may become absorbed in the musical sounds vibrated by the hunter, but the result is that it loses its life. Similarly, a fish is very expert in gratifying its tongue, but when it eats the bait offered by the fisherman, it loses its life. Even the elephant, who is so strong, is captured and loses its independence while satisfying its genitals with a female elephant. In each and every species of life, the living entity gets a body to satisfy various senses, but he cannot enjoy all his senses at one time.

In other words, one who takes birth in the land of Bhārata-varṣa by virtue of his past pious activities gets full facility to develop the human form of life. In India, the climatic condition is such that one can live very peacefully without being disturbed by material conditions. Indeed, during the time of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira or Lord Rāmacandra, people were free from all anxieties. There was not even extreme cold or extreme heat. The three kinds of miserable conditions—adhyātmika, adhibhautika and adhidaivika (miseries inflicted by the body and mind itself, those inflicted by other living entities, and natural disturbances)—were all absent during the reign of Lord Rāmacandra or Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira. But at present, compared to other countries on earth, India is artificially disturbed. Despite these material disturbances, however, the country's culture is such that one can easily attain the goal of life—namely salvation, or liberation from material bondage. Thus in order to take birth in India one must perform many pious activities in a past life.", + "In this verse the word lakṣita-lakṣaṇām indicates that the human body attained in Bhārata-varṣa is very auspicious. Vedic culture is full of knowledge, and a person born in India can fully take advantage of Vedic cultural knowledge and the cultural system known as varṇāśrama-dharma. Even at the present time, as we travel all over the world, we see that in some countries human beings have many material facilities but no facilities for spiritual advancement. We find everywhere the defects of one-sided facilities and a lack of full facilities. A blind man can walk but not see, and a lame man cannot walk but can see. Andha-paṅgu-nyāya. The blind man may take the lame man over his shoulder, and as he walks the lame man may give him directions. Thus combined they may work, but individually neither the blind man nor the lame man can walk successfully. Similarly, this human form of life is meant for the advancement of spiritual life and for keeping the material necessities in order. Especially in the Western countries there are ample facilities for material comforts, but no one has any idea of spiritual advancement. Many are hankering after spiritual advancement, but many cheaters come, take advantage of their money, bluff them and go away. Fortunately the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is there to give all facilities for both material and spiritual advancement. In this way people in the Western countries may take advantage of this movement, and in India any man in the villages, unaffected by the industrial cities of India, can still live in any condition and make spiritual advancement.", + "The body has been called the city of nine gates, and these nine gates include two eyes, two ears, two nostrils, one mouth, a genital and a rectum. When the nine gates are clean and working properly, it is to be understood that the body is healthy. In India these nine gates are kept clean by the villagers who rise early in the morning, bathe in the well or rivers, go to the temples to attend maṅgalārati, chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra and take prasāda. In this way one can take advantage of all the facilities of human life. We are gradually introducing this system in different centers in our Society in the Western countries. One who takes advantage of it becomes more and more enlightened in spiritual life. At the present moment, India may be compared to the lame man and the Western countries to the blind man. For the past two thousand years India has been subjugated by the rule of foreigners, and the legs of progress have been broken. In the Western countries the eyes of the people have become blind due to the dazzling glitter of material opulence. The blind man of the Western countries and the lame man of India should combine together in this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Then the lame man of India can walk with the help of the Westerner, and the blind Westerner can see with the help of the lame man. In short, the material advancement of the Western countries and the spiritual assets of India should combine for the elevation of all human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/14.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/14.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ef562ca4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/14.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 14, + "reference": "SB 4.25.14", + "devanagari": "प्राकारोपवनाट्टाल परिखैर् अक्षतोरणैः\nस्वर्णरौप्यायसैः शृंगैः संकुलां सर्वतो गृहैः", + "transliteration": "prākāropavanāṭṭāla-\nparikhair akṣa-toraṇaiḥ\nsvarṇa-raupyāyasaiḥ śṛṅgaiḥ\nsaṅkulāṁ sarvato gṛhaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "prākāra", + "meanings": [ + "walls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upavana", + "meanings": [ + "parks" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṭṭāla", + "meanings": [ + "towers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parikhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with trenches" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṣa", + "meanings": [ + "windows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "toraṇaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with gates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svarṇa", + "meanings": [ + "gold" + ] + }, + { + "word": "raupya", + "meanings": [ + "silver" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayasaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "made of iron" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śṛṅgaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with domes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅkulām", + "meanings": [ + "congested" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "everywhere" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with houses." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "That city was surrounded by walls and parks, and within it were towers, canals, windows and outlets.

Of the various parts of the body, those which incite sexual impulses are referred to here indirectly. Because the body has genitals, when the living entity attains the right age—be he man or woman—he becomes agitated by the sex impulse. As long as one remains a child, he is not agitated by seeing a beautiful woman. Although the sense organs are present, unless the age is ripe there is no sex impulse. The favorable conditions surrounding the sex impulse are compared here to a garden or a nice solitary park. When one sees the opposite sex, naturally the sex impulse increases. It is said that if a man in a solitary place does not become agitated upon seeing a woman, he is to be considered a brahmacārī. But this practice is almost impossible. The sex impulse is so strong that even by seeing, touching or talking, coming into contact with, or even thinking of the opposite sex—even in so many subtle ways—one becomes sexually impelled. Consequently a brahmacārī or sannyāsī is prohibited to associate with women, especially in a secret place. The śāstras enjoin that one should not even talk to a woman in a secret place, even if she happens to be one's own daughter, sister or mother. The sex impulse is so strong that even if one is very learned, he becomes agitated in such circumstances.

These girls had poison injected into their bodies from the beginning of their lives so that in due course of time they would become so immune to the poison and so poisonous themselves that simply by kissing a person they could kill him. These poisonous girls were engaged to see an enemy and kill him with a kiss. Thus there are many instances in human history of heroes who have been curbed simply by women.

In the human form of life, however, one should be intelligent enough to ask what he is, why he has come into the world, what his duty is, who is the supreme controller, what is the difference between dull matter and the living entity, etc. There are so many questions, and the person who is actually intelligent should simply inquire about the supreme source of everything: athāto brahma jijñāsā. A living entity is always connected with a certain amount of intelligence, but in the human form of life the living entity must inquire about his spiritual identity. This is real human intelligence.

In the human form one should utilize his intelligence by asking all these questions, just as Purañjana, the living entity, is asking the unknown girl where she has come from, what her business is, why she is present, etc. These are inquiries about ātma-tattva—self-realization.

He not only appreciated the shyness of the girl, but he actually became more and more attracted by that shyness. He was actually thinking of becoming her husband and consequently was asking her whether she was thinking of her prospective husband or whether she was married. This is an example of bhoga-icchā—the desire for enjoyment. One who is attracted by such desires becomes conditioned in this material world, and one who is not so attracted attains liberation.

When the living entity gives up this material body, the vital force still remains intact and is carried to another material body. That is called transmigration, or change of the body, and we have come to know this process as death. Actually, there is no death. The vital force always exists with the soul, and when the soul is awakened from so-called sleep, he can see his eleven friends, or the active senses and the mind with their various desires (wives). The vital life force remains. Even during our sleeping hours we can understand by virtue of our breathing process that the snake lives by eating the air that passes within this body.

There is even a science called kāma-śāstra, which is the science of sex. In human life there are also such divisions as brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa. There is no sex life except in the gṛhastha or householder, āśrama. The brahmacārī is not allowed any sex, a vānaprastha voluntarily refrains from sex, and the sannyāsī is completely renounced. The karmīs do not practice brahmacarya, vānaprastha or sannyāsa life, for they are very much interested in gṛhastha life. In other words, a human being is very much materially inclined. Indeed, all living entities are materially inclined. They prefer gṛhastha life because there is a concession for sex. The karmīs think the other statuses of life are worse than animal life, for animals also have sex, whereas the brahmacārī, vānaprastha and sannyāsī completely give up sex. The karmīs, therefore, abhor these orders of spiritual life." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/39.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/39.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b2ef5ab0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/39.json @@ -0,0 +1,114 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 39, + "reference": "SB 4.25.39", + "devanagari": "धर्मो ह्य् अत्रार्थकामौ च प्रजानन्दो ऽमृतं यशः\nलोका विशोका विरजा यान्न केवलिनो विदुः", + "transliteration": "dharmo hy atrārtha-kāmau ca\nprajānando 'mṛtaṁ yaśaḥ\nlokā viśokā virajā\nyān na kevalino viduḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dharmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "religious ritual" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atra", + "meanings": [ + "here in this gṛhastha-āśrama, or householder life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "artha", + "meanings": [ + "economic development" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmau", + "meanings": [ + "sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajā-ānandaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the pleasure of generations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "the results of sacrifice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "reputation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lokāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "planetary systems" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśokāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without lamentation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "virajāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without disease" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yān", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kevalinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the transcendentalists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viduḥ", + "meanings": [ + "know." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The woman continued: In this material world, a householder's life brings all kinds of happiness in religion, economic development, sense gratification and the begetting of children, sons and grandsons.

Pravṛtti-mārga means sense enjoyment, and nivṛtti-mārga means spiritual advancement. In the life of animals and demons, there is no conception of nivṛtti-mārga, nor is there any actual conception of pravṛtti-mārga. Pravṛtti-mārga maintains that even though one has the propensity for sense gratification, he can gratify his senses according to the directions of the Vedic injunctions. For example, everyone has the propensity for sex life, but in demoniac civilization sex is enjoyed without restriction. According to Vedic culture, sex is enjoyed under Vedic instructions. Thus the Vedas give direction to civilized human beings to enable them to satisfy their propensities for sense gratification.", + "In the nivṛtti-mārga, however, on the path of transcendental realization, sex is completely forbidden. The social orders are divided into four parts—brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa—and only in the householder life can the pravṛtti-mārga be encouraged or accepted according to Vedic instructions. In the orders of brahmacarya, vānaprastha and sannyāsa, there are no facilities for sex.", + "In this verse the woman is advocating pravṛtti-mārga only and is discouraging the path of nivṛtti-mārga. She clearly says that the yatis, the transcendentalists who are concerned only with spiritual life (kaivalya), cannot imagine the happiness of pravṛtti-mārga. In other words, the man who follows the Vedic principles enjoys the materialistic way of life not only by becoming happy in this life, but also in the next life by being promoted to the heavenly planets. In this life such a person gets all kinds of material opulences, such as sons and grandsons, because he is always engaged in various religious functions. The material distresses are birth, old age, disease and death, but those who are interested in pravṛtti-mārga hold various religious functions at the time of birth, old age, disease and death. Without caring for the distresses of birth, old age, disease and death, they are addicted to performing the special functions according to the Vedic ritualistic ceremonies.", + "Factually, however, pravṛtti-mārga is based on sex life. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, yan maithunādi-gṛhamedhi-sukhaṁ hi tuccham (Bhāg. 7.9.45). A householder who is too much addicted to pravṛtti-mārga is actually called a gṛhamedhī, not a gṛhastha. Although the gṛhastha desires sense gratification, he acts according to Vedic instructions. The gṛhamedhī, however, who is interested only in sense gratification, does not follow any Vedic instruction. The gṛhamedhī engages himself as an advocate of sex life and also allows his sons and daughters to engage in sex and to be deprived of any glorious end in life. A gṛhastha enjoys sex life in this life as well as in the next, but a gṛhamedhī does not know what the next life is about because he is simply interested in sex in this life. On the whole, when one is too much inclined toward sex, he does not care for the transcendental spiritual life. In this age of Kali especially, no one is interested in spiritual advancement. Even though it is sometimes found that one may be interested in spiritual advancement, he is most likely to accept a bogus method of spiritual life, being misguided by so many pretenders." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c41a1833 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 4.25.40", + "devanagari": "पितृदेवर्षिमर्त्यानां भूतानाम् आत्मनश्च ह\nक्षेम्यं वदन्ति शरणं भवे ऽस्मिन्यद्गृहाश्रमः", + "transliteration": "pitṛ-devarṣi-martyānāṁ\nbhūtānām ātmanaś ca ha\nkṣemyaṁ vadanti śaraṇaṁ\nbhave 'smin yad gṛhāśramaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pitṛ", + "meanings": [ + "forefathers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deva", + "meanings": [ + "demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣi", + "meanings": [ + "sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "martyānām", + "meanings": [ + "of humanity in general" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtānām", + "meanings": [ + "of the infinite living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of oneself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ha", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣemyam", + "meanings": [ + "beneficial" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vadanti", + "meanings": [ + "they say" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "shelter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhave", + "meanings": [ + "in the material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asmin", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "that which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛha-āśramaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "householder life." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The woman continued: According to authorities, the householder life is pleasing not only to oneself but to all the forefathers, demigods, great sages, saintly persons and everyone else.

In this way, as soon as one is born in this material world as a human being, he has so many obligations and is bound to repay all these obligations. If he does not repay them, he is further entangled in the process of birth and death.

In Old Delhi there are still remnants of surrounding walls and various gates known as the Kaśmiri Gate, the Lahori Gate, etc. Similarly, in Ahmadabad there is a Delhi Gate. The point of this simile is that the living entity wants to enjoy different types of material opulences, and to this end nature has given him various holes in his body that he can utilize for sense enjoyment." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/46.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/46.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..89abebbb --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/25/verses/46.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 25, + "verse": 46, + "reference": "SB 4.25.46", + "devanagari": "पंच द्वारस्तु पौरस्त्या दक्षिणैका तथोत्तरा\nपश्चिमे द्वे अमूषां ते नामानि नृप वर्णये", + "transliteration": "pañca dvāras tu paurastyā\ndakṣiṇaikā tathottarā\npaścime dve amūṣāṁ te\nnāmāni nṛpa varṇaye", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pañca", + "meanings": [ + "five" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "doors" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paurastyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "facing the eastern side" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dakṣiṇā", + "meanings": [ + "southern" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekā", + "meanings": [ + "one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttarā", + "meanings": [ + "one toward the north" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paścime", + "meanings": [ + "similarly, on the western side" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dve", + "meanings": [ + "two" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amūṣām", + "meanings": [ + "of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmāni", + "meanings": [ + "names" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛpa", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṇaye", + "meanings": [ + "I shall describe." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear King, of the nine doors, five led toward the eastern side, one led toward the northern side, one led toward the southern side, and two led toward the western side.

The more one goes to the western side, the more he will find people disinterested in spiritual life. He will find them behaving against the Vedic standards. Because of this, people living in the West are more addicted to sense gratification. In this Bhāgavatam it is confirmed: āsurī nāma paścād dvāḥ. In other words, the population on the western side is interested in an asuric civilization, that is, a materialistic way of life.

In other words, one who has eyes to see can understand how the body is being driven, influenced by the particular type or quality of material nature. In these three verses the activity of the living entity is described to prove how the body becomes influenced by the quality of ignorance, even when a person wants to be religious.

Even though one may be religiously inclined, animal sacrifice is nonetheless recommended in the śāstras, not only in the Vedas but even in the modern scriptures of other sects. These animal sacrifices are recommended in the name of religion, but actually animal sacrifice is meant for persons in the mode of ignorance. When such people kill animals, they can at least do so in the name of religion.

All kinds of religious systems that are involved in cheating are completely kicked out of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. In the bhagavad-dharma, the religion dealing with one's relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, animal sacrifice is not recommended. In the performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña—Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare—there is no recommendation for animal sacrifices.", + "In these three verses, King Purañjana's going to the forest to kill animals is symbolic of the living entity's being driven by the mode of ignorance and thus engaging in different activities for sense gratification. The material body itself indicates that the living entity is already influenced by the three modes of material nature and that he is driven to enjoy material resources. When the body is influenced by the mode of ignorance, its infection becomes very acute. When it is influenced by the mode of passion, the infection is at the symptomatic stage. However, when the body is influenced by the mode of goodness, the materialistic infection becomes purified. The ritualistic ceremonies recommended in religious systems are certainly on the platform of goodness, but because within this material world even the mode of goodness is sometimes polluted by the other qualities (namely passion and ignorance), a man in goodness is sometimes driven by the influence of ignorance.", + "It is herein described that King Purañjana once went to the forest to kill animals. This means that he, the living entity, came under the influence of the mode of ignorance. The forest in which King Purañjana engaged in hunting was named Pañca-prastha. The word pañca means five, and this indicates the objects of the five senses. The body has five working senses, namely, the hands, the legs, the tongue, the rectum and the genitals. By taking full advantage of these working senses, the body enjoys material life. The chariot is driven by five horses, which represent the five sense organs—namely the eyes, ears, nose, skin and tongue. These sense organs are very easily attracted by the sense objects. Consequently the horses are described as moving swiftly. On the chariot King Purañjana kept two explosive weapons, which may be compared to ahaṅkāra, or false ego. This false ego is typified by two attitudes: \"I am this body\" (ahantā), and \"Everything in my bodily relationships belongs to me\" (mamatā).", + "The two wheels of the chariot may be compared to the two moving facilities—namely sinful life and religious life. The chariot is decorated with three flags, which represent the three modes of material nature. The five kinds of obstacles, or uneven roads, represent the five kinds of air passing within the body. These are prāṇa, apāna, udāna, samāna and vyāna. The body itself is covered by seven coverings, namely, skin, muscle, fat, blood, marrow, bone and semen. The living entity is covered by three subtle material elements and five gross material elements. These are actually obstacles placed before the living entity on the path of liberation from material bondage.", + "The word raśmi (rope) in this verse indicates the mind. The word nīḍa is also significant, for nīḍa indicates the nest where a bird takes rest. In this case nīḍa is the heart where the living entity is situated. The living entity sits in one place only. The causes of his bondage are two: namely lamentation and illusion. In material existence the living entity simply hankers to get something he can never get. Therefore he is in illusion. As a result of being in this illusory situation, the living entity is always lamenting. Thus lamentation and illusion are described herein as dvi-kūbara, the two posts of bondage.", + "The living entity carries out various desires through five different processes, which indicate the working of the five working senses. The golden ornaments and dress indicate that the living entity is influenced by the quality of rajo-guṇa, passion. One who has a good deal of money or riches is especially driven by the mode of passion. Being influenced by the mode of passion, one desires so many things for enjoyment in this material world. The eleven commanders represent the ten senses and the mind. The mind is always making plans with the ten commanders to enjoy the material world. The forest named Pañca-prastha, where the King went to hunt, is the forest of the five sense objects: form, taste, sound, smell and touch.

Instead, with great pride, he accepts the bow and arrow of attachment and hatred. Our consciousness is always working in two ways—the right way and the wrong way. When one becomes too proud of his position, influenced by the mode of passion, he gives up the right path and accepts the wrong one.

Everyone is inclined in this age to eat meat and fish, drink liquor and indulge in sex life, but according to the Vedic injunctions, sex is allowed only in marriage, meat-eating is allowed only when the animal is killed and offered before the goddess Kālī, and intoxication is allowed only in a restricted way.

A person who indiscriminately violates the rules and regulations given by the Vedas is liable to be punished. One should therefore not enjoy his senses according to his lusty desires but should restrict himself according to the regulative principles given in the Vedas.

People have become so degraded in this age that on the one hand they restrict polygamy and on the other hand they hunt for women in so many ways. Many business concerns publicly advertise that topless girls are available in this club or in that shop. Thus women have become instruments of sense enjoyment in modern society. The Vedas enjoin, however, that if a man has the propensity to enjoy more than one wife—as is sometimes the propensity for men in the higher social order, such as the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and vaiśyas, and even sometimes the śūdras—he is allowed to marry more than one wife.

The Vedic instructions are different because they do not have these four defects. Vedic instructions are not subject to mistakes. The knowledge of the Vedas is knowledge received directly from God, and there is consequently no question of illusion, cheating, mistakes or imperfect senses. All Vedic knowledge is perfect because it is received directly from God by the paramparā disciplic succession. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is said: tene brahma hṛdā ya ādi-kavaye (Bhāg. 1.1.1). The original creature of this universe, known as the ādi-kavi, or Lord Brahmā, was instructed by Kṛṣṇa through the heart. After receiving these Vedic instructions from Lord Kṛṣṇa Himself, Brahmā distributed the knowledge by the paramparā system to Nārada, and Nārada in turn distributed the knowledge to Vyāsa.

Sāttvika-āhāra, foodstuffs in the mode of goodness, are described in the śāstras as wheat, rice, vegetables, fruits, milk, sugar, and milk products. Simple food like rice, dahl, chapatis, vegetables, milk and sugar constitute a balanced diet, but sometimes it is found that an initiated person, in the name of prasāda, eats very luxurious foodstuffs. Due to his past sinful life he becomes attracted by Cupid and eats good food voraciously. It is clearly visible that when a neophyte in Kṛṣṇa consciousness eats too much, he falls down. Instead of being elevated to pure Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he becomes attracted by Cupid. The so-called brahmacārī becomes agitated by women, and the vānaprastha may again become captivated into having sex with his wife. Or he may begin to search out another wife. Due to some sentiment, he may give up his own wife and come into the association of devotees and a spiritual master, but due to his past sinful life he cannot stay. Instead of being elevated to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he falls down, being attracted by Cupid, and takes to another wife for sex enjoyment.

The purport is that one certainly becomes addicted to sinful activities when he becomes devoid of his good chaste wife, or when he has lost his good sense and does not take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/26/verses/19.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/26/verses/19.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6208a54a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/26/verses/19.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 26, + "verse": 19, + "reference": "SB 4.26.19", + "devanagari": "सान्त्वयन्श्लक्ष्णया वाचा हृदयेन विदूयता\nप्रेयस्याः स्नेहसंरम्भ लिंगम् आत्मनि नाभ्यगात्", + "transliteration": "sāntvayan ślakṣṇayā vācā\nhṛdayena vidūyatā\npreyasyāḥ sneha-saṁrambha-\nliṅgam ātmani nābhyagāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sāntvayan", + "meanings": [ + "pacifying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ślakṣṇayā", + "meanings": [ + "by sweet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vācā", + "meanings": [ + "words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hṛdayena", + "meanings": [ + "with a heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidūyatā", + "meanings": [ + "regretting very much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "preyasyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of his beloved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sneha", + "meanings": [ + "from affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁrambha", + "meanings": [ + "of anger" + ] + }, + { + "word": "liṅgam", + "meanings": [ + "symptom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmani", + "meanings": [ + "in her heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "did not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhyagāt", + "meanings": [ + "arouse." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The King, with aggrieved mind, began to speak to his wife with very pleasing words.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has described the vaiṣṇava-aparādha, or offense to a Vaiṣṇava, as \"the mad elephant offense.\" One should be very careful not to offend a Vaiṣṇava or a brāhmaṇa. Even the great yogī Durvāsā was harassed by the Sudarśana cakra when he offended the Vaiṣṇava Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, who was neither a brāhmaṇa nor a sannyāsī but an ordinary householder.

As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam: yan maithunādi-gṛhamedhi-sukhaṁ hi tucchaṁ kaṇḍūyanena karayor iva duḥkha-duḥkham (Bhāg. 7.9.45). The actual happiness of the karmīs is sex life.

A living entity is similarly engaged in the material world in sinful activities. These sinful activities may be compared to King Purañjana's hunting in the forest.", + "A sinful life can be counteracted by various processes of religion such as yajña, vrata and dāna—that is, the performance of sacrifices, the taking of a vow for some religious ritual, and the giving of charity. In this way one may become free from the reactions of sinful life and at the same time awaken his original Kṛṣṇa consciousness. By coming home, taking his bath, eating nice foodstuffs, getting refreshed and searching out his wife, King Purañjana came to his good consciousness in his family life. In other words, a systematic family life as enjoined in the Vedas is better than an irresponsible sinful life. If a husband and wife combine together in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and live together peacefully, that is very nice. However, if a husband becomes too much attracted by his wife and forgets his duty in life, the implications of materialistic life will again resume. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī has therefore recommended anāsaktasya viṣayān (Bh.r.s. 1.2.255). Without being attached by sex, the husband and wife may live together for the advancement of spiritual life. The husband should engage in devotional service, and the wife should be faithful and religious according to the Vedic injunctions. Such a combination is very good. However, if the husband becomes too much attracted to the wife due to sex, the position becomes very dangerous. Women in general are very much sexually inclined. Indeed, it is said that a woman's sex desire is nine times stronger than a man's. It is therefore a man's duty to keep a woman under his control by satisfying her, giving her ornaments, nice food and clothes, and engaging her in religious activities. Of course, a woman should have a few children and in this way not be disturbing to the man. Unfortunately, if the man becomes attracted to the woman simply for sex enjoyment, then family life becomes abominable.", + "The great politician Cāṇakya Paṇḍita has said: bhāryā rūpavatī śatruḥ—a beautiful wife is an enemy. Of course every woman in the eyes of her husband is very beautiful. Others may see her as not very beautiful, but the husband, being very much attracted to her, sees her always as very beautiful. If the husband sees the wife as very beautiful, it is to be assumed that he is too much attracted to her. This attraction is the attraction of sex. The whole world is captivated by the two modes of material nature rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa, passion and ignorance. Generally women are very much passionate and are less intelligent; therefore somehow or other a man should not be under the control of their passion and ignorance. However, by performing bhakti-yoga, or devotional service, a man can be raised to the platform of goodness. If a husband situated in the mode of goodness can control his wife, who is in passion and ignorance, the woman is benefited. Forgetting her natural inclination for passion and ignorance, the woman becomes obedient and faithful to her husband, who is situated in goodness. Such a life becomes very welcome. The intelligence of the man and woman may then work very nicely together, and they can make a progressive march toward spiritual realization. Otherwise, the husband, coming under the control of the wife, sacrifices his quality of goodness and becomes subservient to the qualities of passion and ignorance. In this way the whole situation becomes polluted.", + "The conclusion is that a household life is better than a sinful life devoid of responsibility, but if in the household life the husband becomes subordinate to the wife, involvement in materialistic life again becomes prominent. In this way a man's material bondage becomes enhanced.

Thus day after day the span of one's life is reduced, and, forgetting the duty of human life, the foolish man simply remains in the company of his wife and enjoys her in a secluded place.

In this way he overindulges in sex life and thus becomes unfit for self-realization." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..73cb2261 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 27, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 4.27.5", + "devanagari": "तयैवं रममाणस्य कामकश्मलचेतसः\nक्षणार्धम् इव राजेन्द्र व्यतिक्रान्तं नवं वयः", + "transliteration": "tayaivaṁ ramamāṇasya\nkāma-kaśmala-cetasaḥ\nkṣaṇārdham iva rājendra\nvyatikrāntaṁ navaṁ vayaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tayā", + "meanings": [ + "with her" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "in this way" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ramamāṇasya", + "meanings": [ + "enjoying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāma", + "meanings": [ + "full of lust" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaśmala", + "meanings": [ + "sinful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cetasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "his heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣaṇa-ardham", + "meanings": [ + "in half a moment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāja-indra", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyatikrāntam", + "meanings": [ + "expired" + ] + }, + { + "word": "navam", + "meanings": [ + "new" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "life." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear King Prācīnabarhiṣat, in this way King Purañjana, with his heart full of lust and sinful reactions, began to enjoy sex with his wife, and in this way his new life and youth expired in half a moment.", + "purport": [ + "Śrīla Govinda dāsa Ṭhākura has sung:", + "ei-dhana, yauvana, putra, parijana,

In youth a person becomes very lusty to enjoy all kinds of sense objects. The sense objects are form, taste, smell, touch and sound. The modern scientific method, or advancement of scientific civilization, encourages the enjoyment of these five senses. The younger generation is very pleased to see a beautiful form, to hear radio messages of material news and sense gratificatory songs, to smell nice scents, nice flowers, and to touch the soft body or breasts of a young woman and gradually touch the sex organs. All of this is also very pleasing to the animals; therefore in human society there are restrictions in the enjoyment of the five sense objects. If one does not follow, he becomes exactly like an animal.", + "Thus in this verse it is specifically stated, kāma-kaśmala-cetasaḥ: the consciousness of King Purañjana was polluted by lusty desires and sinful activities. In the previous verse it is stated that Purañjana, although advanced in consciousness, lay down on a very soft bed with his wife. This indicates that he indulged too much in sex. The words navaṁ vayaḥ are also significant in this verse. They indicate the period of youth from age sixteen to thirty. These thirteen or fifteen years of life are years in which one can very strongly enjoy the senses. When one comes to this age he thinks that life will go on and that he will simply continue enjoying his senses, but, \"time and tide wait for no man.\" The span of youth expires very quickly. One who wastes his life simply by committing sinful activities in youth immediately becomes disappointed and disillusioned when the brief period of youth is over. The material enjoyments of youth are especially pleasing to a person who has no spiritual training. If one is trained only according to the bodily conception of life, he simply leads a disappointed life because bodily sense enjoyment finishes within forty years or so. After forty years, one simply leads a disillusioned life because he has no spiritual knowledge. For such a person, the expiration of youth occurs in half a moment. Thus King Purañjana's pleasure, which he took in lying down with his wife, expired very quickly.", + "Kāma-kaśmala-cetasaḥ also indicates that unrestricted sense enjoyment is not allowed in the human form of life by the laws of nature. If one enjoys his senses unrestrictedly, he leads a sinful life. The animals do not violate the laws of nature. For example, the sex impulse in animals is very strong during certain months of the year. The lion is very powerful. He is a flesh-eater and is very strong, but he enjoys sex only once in a year. Similarly, according to religious injunctions a man is restricted to enjoy sex only once in a month, after the menstrual period of the wife, and if the wife is pregnant, he is not allowed sex life at all. That is the law for human beings. A man is allowed to keep more than one wife because he cannot enjoy sex when the wife is pregnant. If he wants to enjoy sex at such a time, he may go to another wife who is not pregnant. These are laws mentioned in the Manu-saṁhitā and other scriptures.", + "These laws and scriptures are meant for human beings. As such, if one violates these laws, he becomes sinful. The conclusion is that unrestricted sense enjoyment means sinful activities. Illicit sex is sex that violates the laws given in the scriptures. When one violates the laws of the scriptures, or the Vedas, he commits sinful activities. One who is engaged in sinful activities cannot change his consciousness. Our real function is to change our consciousness from kaśmala, sinful consciousness, to Kṛṣṇa, the supreme pure, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā: paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān: \"You are the Supreme Brahman, the ultimate, the supreme abode and purifier.\" (Bg. 10.12)", + "Kṛṣṇa is the supreme pure, and if we change our consciousness from material enjoyment to Kṛṣṇa, we become purified.

As will be evident from the next verse, King Purañjana not only begot 1,100 sons but also 110 daughters. At the present moment no one can produce such huge quantities of children. Instead, mankind is very busy checking the increase of population by contraceptive methods.", + "We do not find in Vedic literatures that they ever used contraceptive methods, although they were begetting hundreds of children. Checking population by a contraceptive method is another sinful activity, but in this age of Kali people have become so sinful that they do not care for the resultant reactions of their sinful lives. King Purañjana lay down with his wife Purañjanī and begot a large number of children, and there is no mention in these verses that he used contraceptive methods. According to the Vedic scriptures the contraceptive method should be restraint in sex life. It is not that one should indulge in unrestricted sex life and avoid children by using some method to check pregnancy. If a man is in good consciousness, he consults with his religious wife, and as a result of this consultation, with intelligence, one advances in his ability to estimate the value of life. In other words, if one is fortunate enough to have a good conscientious wife, he can decide by mutual consultation that human life is meant for advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and not for begetting a large number of children. Children are called pariṇāma, or by-products, and when one consults his good intelligence he can see that his by-products should be the expansion of his Kṛṣṇa consciousness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8e27db3b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,88 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 27, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 4.27.7", + "devanagari": "दुहिते᳙र्दशोत्तरशतं पितृमातृयशस्करीः\nशीलौदार्यगुणोपेताः पौरंजन्यः प्रजापते", + "transliteration": "duhitèr daśottara-śataṁ\npitṛ-mātṛ-yaśaskarīḥ\nśīlaudārya-guṇopetāḥ\npaurañjanyaḥ prajā-pate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "duhitèḥ", + "meanings": [ + "daughters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daśa-uttara", + "meanings": [ + "ten more than" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śatam", + "meanings": [ + "one hundred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitṛ", + "meanings": [ + "like the father" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mātṛ", + "meanings": [ + "and mother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaśaskarīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "glorified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śīla", + "meanings": [ + "good behavior" + ] + }, + { + "word": "audārya", + "meanings": [ + "magnanimity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "good qualities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upetāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "possessed of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paurañjanyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "daughters of Purañjana" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajā-pate", + "meanings": [ + "O Prajāpati." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Prajāpati, King Prācīnabarhiṣat, in this way King Purañjana also begot 110 daughters.

The body is the field of activity for the living entity, as stated in Bhagavad-gītā: kṣetra-kṣetrajña (Bg. 13.27). There are two constituents: one is the living entity (kṣetra jña), and the other is the body of the living entity (kṣetra). Any living entity can know that he is covered by the body if he only contemplates the body a little bit. Just with a little contemplation he can come to understand that the body is his possession. One can understand this by practical experience and by the authority of the śāstras. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said: dehino'smin yathā dehe (Bg. 2.13). The proprietor of the body, the soul, is within the body. The body is taken as the pañcāla-deśa, or the field of activities wherein the living entity can enjoy the senses in their relationship to the five sense objects—namely, gandha, rasa, rūpa, sparśa and śabda—that is, sense objects made out of earth, water, fire, air and sky. Within this material world covered by the material body of subtle and gross matter, every living entity creates actions and reactions, which are herein known allegorically as sons and grandsons. There are two kinds of actions and reactions—namely, pious and impious. In this way our material existence becomes coated by different actions and reactions.

Purañjana increased his whole family by begetting sons who in their turn begot grandsons. Thus the living entity, being inclined toward sexual gratification, becomes involved in many hundreds and thousands of actions and reactions. In this way he remains within the material world simply for the purpose of sense gratification and transmigrates from one body to another. His process of reproducing so many sons and grandsons results in so-called societies, nations, communities and so on. All these communities, societies, dynasties and nations simply expand from sex life. As stated by Prahlāda Mahārāja: yan maithunādi-gṛhamedhi-sukhaṁ hi tuccham (Bhāg. 7.9.45). A gṛhamedhī is one who wants to remain within this material existence. This means that he wants to remain within this body or society and enjoy friendship, love and community. His only enjoyment is in increasing the number of sex enjoyers. He enjoys sex and produces children, who in their turn marry and produce grandchildren. The grandchildren also marry and in their turn produce great-grandchildren. In this way the entire earth becomes overpopulated, and then suddenly there are reactions provoked by material nature in the form of war, famine, pestilence and earthquakes, etc. Thus the entire population is again extinguished simply to be recreated.

Each of these wives had a separate establishment that necessitated the expenditure of several thousands of rupees. When I was engaged in talking with him, I saw that he was very busy trying to secure money so that all his sons and daughters would get at least 500,000 rupees each.

The word yoṣit means woman, and priya means dear or pleasing. Death is not very much welcome for those who are too much attached to material enjoyment, which culminates in sex. There is an instructive story in this connection. Once when a saintly person was passing on his way, he met a prince, the son of a king, and he blessed him, saying, \"My dear prince, may you live forever.\" The sage next met a saintly person, and he said to him, \"You may either live or die.\" Eventually the sage met a brahmacārī devotee, and he blessed him, saying, \"My dear devotee, you may die immediately.\" Finally the sage met a hunter, and he blessed him, saying, \"Neither live nor die.\" The point is that those who are very sensual and are engaged in sense gratification do not wish to die. Generally a prince has enough money to enjoy his senses; therefore the great sage said that he should live forever, for as long as he lived he could enjoy life, but after his death he would go to hell. Since the brahmacārī devotee was leading a life of severe austerities and penances in order to be promoted back to Godhead, the sage said that he should die immediately so that he need not continue to labor hard and could instead go back home, back to Godhead. A saintly person may either live or die, for during his life he is engaged in serving the Lord, and after his death he also serves the Lord. Thus this life and the next are the same for a saintly devotee, for in both he serves the Lord. Since the hunter lives a very ghastly life due to killing animals, and since he will go to hell when he dies, he is advised to neither live nor die.", + "King Purañjana finally arrived at the point of old age.

Some foolish Russian scientists also claim that they are going to make man immortal through scientific advancement. Under the leadership of such crazy fellows, civilization is going on.

When one becomes old, it becomes impossible to enjoy material happiness. Generally people think that religion and piety come at the end of life, and at this time one generally becomes meditative and takes to some so-called yogic process to relax in the name of meditation. Meditation, however, is simply a farce for those who have enjoyed life in sense gratification. As described in the Sixth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā, meditation (dhyāna, dhāraṇā) is a difficult subject matter that one has to learn from his very youth. To meditate, one must restrain himself from all kinds of sense gratification. Unfortunately, meditation has now become a fashion for those who are overly addicted to sensual things. Such meditation is defeated by the struggle for existence. Sometimes such meditative processes pass for transcendental meditation.

Upon accepting Yayāti's old age, Pūru was given the kingdom.

[Ṣaḍ-gosvāmy-aṣṭaka 2]", + "\"I offer my respectful obeisances unto the six Gosvāmīs, namely Śrī Sanātana Gosvāmī, Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī, Śrī Jīva Gosvāmī and Śrī Gopāla Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, who are very expert in scrutinizingly studying all the revealed scriptures with the aim of establishing eternal religious principles for the benefit of all human beings. Thus they are honored all over the three worlds, and they are worth taking shelter of because they are absorbed in the mood of the gopīs and are engaged in the transcendental loving service of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa.\"", + "Thus jarā, the effect of old age, does not harass a devotee. This is because a devotee follows the instructions and the determination of Nārada Muni. All devotees are in the disciplic succession stemming from Nārada Muni because they worship the Deity according to Nārada Muni's direction, namely the Nārada-pañcarātra or the pāñcarātrika-vidhi. A devotee follows the principles of pāñcarātrika-vidhi as well as bhāgavata-vidhi. Bhāgavata-vidhi includes preaching work—śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ—the hearing and chanting of the glories of Lord Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The pāñcarātrika-vidhi includes arcanaṁ vandanaṁ dāsyaṁ sakhyam ātma-nivedanam. Because a devotee rigidly follows the instructions of Nārada Muni, he has no fear of old age, disease or death. Apparently a devotee may grow old, but he is not subjected to the symptoms of defeat experienced by a common man in old age. Consequently old age does not make a devotee fearful of death, as a common man is fearful of death. When jarā, or old age, takes shelter of a devotee, Kālakanyā diminishes the devotee's fear. A devotee knows that after death he is going back home, back to Godhead; therefore he has no fear of death. Thus instead of depressing a devotee, advanced age helps him become fearless and thus happy." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..57875994 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/27/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,109 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 27, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 4.27.25", + "devanagari": "द्वाव् इमाव् अनुशोचन्ति बालाव् असदवग्रहौ\nयल्लोकशास्त्रोपनतं न राति न तद् इच्छति", + "transliteration": "dvāv imāv anuśocanti\nbālāv asad-avagrahau\nyal loka-śāstropanataṁ\nna rāti na tad icchati", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dvau", + "meanings": [ + "two kinds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "imau", + "meanings": [ + "these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśocanti", + "meanings": [ + "they lament" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bālau", + "meanings": [ + "ignorant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asat", + "meanings": [ + "the foolish" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avagrahau", + "meanings": [ + "taking the path of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "that which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka", + "meanings": [ + "by custom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śāstra", + "meanings": [ + "by scripture" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upanatam", + "meanings": [ + "presented" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "never" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāti", + "meanings": [ + "follows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "neither" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "icchati", + "meanings": [ + "desires." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One who does not give charity according to the customs or injunctions of the scriptures and one who does not accept charity in that way are considered to be in the mode of ignorance.

When the boy becomes a young man, he marries between the ages of twenty and twenty-five. When he is married at the right age, he can immediately beget strong healthy sons. Now female descendants are increasing because young men are very weak sexually. A male child will be born if the husband is sexually stronger than the wife, but if the female is stronger, a female child will be born. Thus it is essential to practice the system of brahmacarya if one wishes to beget a male child when one is married. When one reaches the age of fifty, he should give up family life. At that time one's child should be grown up so that the father can leave the family responsibilities to him. The husband and wife may then go abroad to live a retired life and travel to different places of pilgrimage.

Thus every living entity, according to karma, his past desires and activities, gets a particular type of body, from that of Brahmā to that of a microbe or germ in stool. Due to long association with a particular type of material body and also due to the grace of Kālakanyā and her māyā, one becomes overly attached to a material body, although it is the abode of pain. Even if one tries to separate a worm from stool, the worm will be unwilling to leave. It will return to the stool. Similarly, a hog generally lives in a very filthy state, eating stool, but if one tries to separate it from its condition and give it a nice place, the hog will be unwilling. In this way if we study each and every living entity, we will find that he will defy offers of a more comfortable position. Although King Purañjana was attacked from all sides, he was nonetheless unwilling to leave the city. In other words, the living entity—whatever his condition—does not want to give up the body. But he will be forced to give it up because, after all, this material body cannot exist forever.", + "The living entity wishes to enjoy the material world in different ways, and therefore by nature's law he is allowed to transmigrate from one body to another, exactly as a person transmigrates from the body of an infant to a child, to a boy, to a youth, to a man. This process is constantly going on. At the last stage, when the gross body becomes old and invalid, the living entity is reluctant to give it up, despite the fact that it is no longer usable. Although material existence and the material body are not comfortable, why does the living entity not want to leave? As soon as one gets a material body, he has to work very hard to maintain it. He may engage in different fields of activity, but whatever the case, everyone has to work very hard to maintain the material body. Unfortunately, society has no information of the soul's transmigration. Because the living entity does not hope to enter the spiritual kingdom of eternal life, bliss and knowledge, he wants to stick to his present body, even though it may be useless. Consequently the greatest welfare activity in this material world is the furthering of this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.", + "This movement is giving human society information about the kingdom of God. There is God, there is Kṛṣṇa, and everyone can return to God and live eternally in bliss and knowledge. A Kṛṣṇa conscious person is not afraid of giving up the body because his position is always eternal. A Kṛṣṇa conscious person engages in the transcendental loving service of the Lord eternally; therefore as long as he lives within the body, he is happy to engage in the loving service of the Lord, and when he gives up the body, he is also permanently situated in the service of the Lord. The saintly devotees are always free and liberated, whereas the karmīs, who have no knowledge of spiritual life or the transcendental loving service of the Lord, are very much afraid of giving up the rotten material body." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/28/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/28/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c86b3344 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/28/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 28, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 4.28.11", + "devanagari": "भयनाम्नो ऽग्रजो भ्राता प्रज्वारः प्रत्युपस्थितः\nददाह तां पुरीं कृत्स्नां भ्रातुः प्रियचिकीर्षया", + "transliteration": "bhaya-nāmno 'grajo bhrātā\nprajvāraḥ pratyupasthitaḥ\ndadāha tāṁ purīṁ kṛtsnāṁ\nbhrātuḥ priya-cikīrṣayā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "bhaya-nāmnaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of Bhaya (fearfulness)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agra-jaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "elder" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātā", + "meanings": [ + "brother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prajvāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "named Prajvāra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyupasthitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being present there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadāha", + "meanings": [ + "set fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tām", + "meanings": [ + "to that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "purīm", + "meanings": [ + "city" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtsnām", + "meanings": [ + "wholesale" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "his brother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priya-cikīrṣayā", + "meanings": [ + "in order to please." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Under the circumstances the elder brother of Yavana-rāja, known as Prajvāra, set fire to the city to please his younger brother, whose other name is fear itself.", + "purport": [ + "According to the Vedic system, a dead body is set on fire, but before death there is another fire or fever, which is called prajvāra, or viṣṇu-jvāra.

There should be no question of mating. Simply by engaging in the service of her exalted husband, who must be a pure devotee, the wife will never be agitated by sex impulses. The vānaprastha stage is exactly like this. Although the wife remains with the husband, she undergoes severe austerities and penances so that although both husband and wife live together, there is no question of sex. In this way both husband and wife can live together perpetually. Since the wife is weaker than the husband, this weakness is expressed in this verse with the words upa patim. Upa means \"near to,\" or \"almost equal to.\" Being a man, the husband is generally more advanced than his wife. Nonetheless, the wife is expected to give up all luxurious habits. She should not even dress nicely or comb her hair. Hair combing is one of the main businesses of women. In the vānaprastha stage the wife should not take care of her hair. Thus her hair will become tangled in knots. Consequently the wife herself will no longer be agitated by sex impulses. In this way both husband and wife can advance in spiritual consciousness.

The British government stopped this practice, considering it inhuman. However, from the early history of India we find that when Mahārāja Pāṇḍu died, he was survived by two wives—Mādrī and Kuntī. The question was whether both should die or one should die. After the death of Mahārāja Pāṇḍu, his wives settled that one should remain and the other should go.

According to the śruti-mantra (dvā suparṇā sayujā sakhāyāḥ), the Lord is sitting within the heart of every living entity as suhṛt, the best friend. The Lord is always eager to have the living entity come home, back to Godhead.

Instead of being eager to see the Lord in some bush of Vṛndāvana while at the same time engaging in sense gratification, if one instead sticks to the principle of following the words of the spiritual master, he will see the Supreme Lord without difficulty.

This is the duty of the pure devotee: to see the bona fide spiritual master and consult with the Supersoul within the heart.", + "When the brāhmaṇa asked the woman who the man lying on the floor was, she answered that he was her spiritual master and that she was perplexed about what to do in his absence. At such a time the Supersoul immediately appears, provided the devotee is purified in heart by following the directions of the spiritual master. A sincere devotee who follows the instructions of the spiritual master certainly gets direct instructions from his heart from the Supersoul. Thus a sincere devotee is always helped directly or indirectly by the spiritual master and the Supersoul. This is confirmed in Caitanya-caritāmṛta: guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde pāya bhakti-latā-bīja. If the devotee serves his spiritual master sincerely, Kṛṣṇa automatically becomes pleased. Yasya prasādād bhagavad-prasādaḥ. By satisfying the spiritual master, one automatically satisfies Kṛṣṇa. Thus the devotee becomes enriched by both the spiritual master and Kṛṣṇa. The Supersoul is eternally the friend of the living entity and always remains with him. The Supersoul has always been ready to help the living entity, even before the creation of this material world. It is therefore stated here: yenāgre vicacartha. The word agre means \"before the creation.\" Thus the Supersoul has been accompanying the living entity since before the creation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/28/verses/53.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/28/verses/53.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ef5a254b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/28/verses/53.json @@ -0,0 +1,108 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 28, + "verse": 53, + "reference": "SB 4.28.53", + "devanagari": "अपि स्मरसि चात्मानम् अविज्ञातसखं सखे\nहित्वा मां पदम् अन्विच्छन्भौमभोगरतो गतः", + "transliteration": "api smarasi cātmānam\navijñāta-sakhaṁ sakhe\nhitvā māṁ padam anvicchan\nbhauma-bhoga-rato gataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "api smarasi", + "meanings": [ + "do you remember" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avijñāta", + "meanings": [ + "unknown" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakham", + "meanings": [ + "friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakhe", + "meanings": [ + "O friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hitvā", + "meanings": [ + "giving up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padam", + "meanings": [ + "position" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvicchan", + "meanings": [ + "desiring" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhauma", + "meanings": [ + "material" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhoga", + "meanings": [ + "enjoyment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attached to" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "you became." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The brāhmaṇa continued: My dear friend, even though you cannot immediately recognize Me, can't you remember that in the past you had a very intimate friend?

The vibhinnāṁśa expansions, the marginal potencies of the Lord, are the living entities.

He selects his position as a human being, a demigod, a cat, a dog, a tree, etc. In this way the living entity selects a body out of the 8,400,000 forms and tries to satisfy himself by a variety of material enjoyment. The Supersoul, however, does not like him to do this. Consequently the Supersoul instructs him to surrender unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord then takes charge of the living entity.

They are not to be considered stories without a transcendental purpose. Some of them refer to real historical facts. One should be interested, however, in the real purport of the story. Indirect instruction is quickly understandable for a common man. Factually the path of bhakti-yoga is the path of hearing directly about the pastimes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead (śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ), but those who are not interested in hearing directly about the activities of the Lord, or who cannot understand them, can very effectively hear such stories and fables as this one narrated by Nārada Muni.", + "The following is a glossary of some of the important words in this chapter.", + "tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet

The symptom of such a spiritual master is that he is expert in understanding the Vedic conclusion and therefore he constantly engages in the service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.\" (Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad 1.2.12) By serving such a bona fide spiritual master, gradually a conditioned soul becomes detached from material enjoyment and invariably makes progress in spiritual realization under the direction of the spiritual master. Those who are misled by the illusory energy are never interested in approaching a spiritual master to make life successful.", + "yasya deve parā bhaktir

To rectify these rascals and fools is very difficult. After all, the sex desires of the common man are condemned in these verses. The word durmada means \"wrongly directed,\" and nirṛti means \"sinful activity.\" Although this clearly indicates that sex indulgence is abominable and misdirected even from the ordinary point of view, the sahajiyās nonetheless pass themselves off as devotees conducting spiritual activities. For this reason, Vṛndāvana is no longer visited by intelligent men. Sometimes we are often asked why we have made our center in Vṛndāvana. From the external point of view, it can be concluded that Vṛndāvana has become degenerate due to these sahajiyā activities, yet from the spiritual point of view, Vṛndāvana is the only place where all these sinful persons can be rectified by means of taking birth in the forms of dogs, hogs and monkeys.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu says: jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa'. \"Every living entity is by constitutional position an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa.\" As soon as one engages in the service of Lord Vāsudeva, he attains his normal constitutional position. This position is called the liberated stage. Muktir hitvānyathā-rūpaṁ svarūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ: in the liberated stage one is situated in his original Kṛṣṇa conscious position. He gives up all engagements in the service of matter, engagements concocted under the names of social service, national service, community service, dog service, automobile service, and so many other services conducted under the illusion of \"I\" and \"mine.\"", + "As explained in the Second Chapter of the First Canto:", + "vāsudeve bhagavati

In these two verses both the karmīs and jñānīs are described as unfit to understand Him. As described by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī, only when one is completely free from mental speculation and fruitive activity (anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyaṁ jñāna-karmādy-anāvṛtam) can one engage in pure devotional service without being polluted by material desires. The significant word ātma-bhāvitaḥ indicates that the Lord is awakened in one's mind if one constantly thinks of Him. A pure devotee is always thinking of the lotus feet of the Lord (sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ). A pure devotee cannot remain a moment without being absorbed in thoughts of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This constant thinking of the Lord is described in Bhagavad-gītā as satata-yuktānām, always engaging in the Lord's service. Bhajatāṁ prīti-pūrvakam: this is devotional service in love and affection. Because the Supreme Personality of Godhead dictates to the pure devotee from within, the devotee is saved from all material activities.

It is said of the six Gosvāmīs: nānā-śāstra-vicāraṇaika-nipuṇau sad-dharma-saṁsthāpakau lokānāṁ hita-kāriṇau. A pure devotee of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is always thinking of how fallen, conditioned souls can be delivered. The Supreme Personality of Godhead, influenced by the merciful devotees' attempt to deliver fallen souls, enlightens the people in general from within by His causeless mercy. If a devotee is blessed by another devotee, he becomes free from karma-kāṇḍa and jñāna-kāṇḍa activities. As confirmed in Brahma-saṁhitā, vedeṣu durlabham: the Supreme Personality of Godhead cannot be realized through karma-kāṇḍa and jñāna-kāṇḍa.

The Vedic instructions guide them according to different regulative principles, and intelligent people take advantage of these instructions. They thus enjoy material life without being disturbed. This is actually illusion, and to get out of this illusion by one's own endeavor is very difficult. The general populace is engaged in material activities, and when people are a little advanced, they become attracted by the ritualistic ceremonies mentioned in the Vedas. However, when one is frustrated in the performance of these ritualistic ceremonies, he again comes to material activities. In this way both the followers of the Vedic rituals and the followers of material activities are entangled in conditional life.

They accept a bona fide spiritual master and listen to him, but when the spiritual master indicates that they should leave home and fully engage in devotional service, they hesitate. The duty of the spiritual master is to instruct the disciple as long as he does not come to the understanding that this materialistic way of life, fruitive activity, is not at all beneficial.

Generally a saintly person lives in a remote place in the forest or in a humble cottage. However, we should note that the times have changed. It may be beneficial for a saintly person's own interest to go to the forest and live in a cottage, but if one becomes a preacher, especially in Western countries, he has to invite many classes of men who are accustomed to living in comfortable apartments. Therefore in this age a saintly person has to make proper arrangements to receive people and attract them to the message of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura, perhaps for the first time, introduced motorcars and palatial buildings for the residence of saintly persons just to attract the general public in big cities. The main fact is that one has to associate with a saintly person. In this age people are not going to search out a saint in the forest, so the saints and sages have to come to the big cities to make arrangements to receive the people in general, who are accustomed to the modern amenities of material life. Gradually such persons will learn that palatial buildings or comfortable apartments are not at all necessary. The real necessity is to become free from material bondage in whatever way possible.

At the present moment the churches, temples and mosques all over the world are not attracting people because foolish priests cannot elevate their followers to the platform of knowledge.

The gross body may change, but the subtle body continues to act. Unless the living entity gets another gross body, he will have to continue in a subtle body, or a ghostly body. One becomes a ghost when the subtle body acts without the help of the instrumental gross body. As stated in this verse, śayānam imam utsṛjya śvasantam. The gross body may lie on a bed and rest, and even though the machinery of the gross body is working, the living entity may leave, go into a dream, and return to the gross body. When he returns to the body, he forgets his dream. Similarly, when the living entity takes on another gross body, he forgets the present gross body. The conclusion is that the subtle body—mind, intelligence and ego—creates an atmosphere with desires and ambitions that the living entity enjoys in the subtle body. Actually the living entity is in the subtle body, even though the gross body apparently changes and even though he inhabits the gross body on various planets. All the activities performed by the living entity in the subtle body are called illusory because they are not permanent. Liberation means getting out of the clutches of the subtle body. Liberation from the gross body simply involves the transmigration of the soul from one gross body to another. When the mind is educated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, or higher consciousness in the mode of goodness, one is transferred either to the upper, heavenly planets or to the spiritual world, the Vaikuṇṭha planets. One therefore has to change his consciousness by cultivating knowledge received from Vedic instructions from the Supreme Personality of Godhead through the disciplic succession.

Similarly, in this life we should always fix our mind on the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, who is present in His arcā-vigraha, the incarnation of the Deity in the temple. We should also always engage in His worship. If we engage our speech in describing the activities of the Lord and our ears in hearing about His pastimes, and if we follow the regulative principles to keep the mind intact for advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, we shall certainly be elevated to the spiritual platform. Then at the time of death the mind, intelligence and ego will no longer be materially contaminated. The living entity is present, and the mind, intelligence and ego are also present. When the mind, intelligence and ego are purified, all the active senses of the living entity become spiritual. Thus the living entity attains his sac-cid-ānanda form.

Nārada Muni says in this verse that at death one takes his plans with him (gṛhṇīyāt), and to execute these plans he gets another body. This is called punar bhavaḥ. When the gross body is finished, the plans of the living entity are taken by the mind, and, by the grace of the Lord, the living entity gets a chance to give these plans shape in the next life.

The residents of Siddhaloka can go from one planet to another individually by virtue of their yogic perfection.

However, he did not wait for their return but simply left messages to the effect that his sons were to protect the mass of citizens. According to Vīrarāghava Ācārya, such protection means organizing the citizens into the specific divisions of the four varṇas and four āśramas. It was the responsibility of the royal order to see that the citizens were following the regulative principles of the four varṇas (namely brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras) and the āśramas (namely brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa). It is very difficult to rule citizens in a kingdom without organizing this varṇāśrama-dharma. To rule the mass of citizens in a state and keep them in a complete progressive order is not possible simply by passing laws every year in a legislative assembly. The varṇāśrama-dharma is essential in a good government. One class of men (the brāhmaṇas) must be intelligent and brahminically qualified, another class must be trained in administrative work (kṣatriya), another in mercantile business (vaiśya) and another simply in labor (śūdra). These four classes of men are already there according to nature, but it is the government's duty to see that all four of these classes follow the principles of their varṇas methodically. This is called abhirakṣaṇa, or protection.", + "It is significant that when Mahārāja Prācīnabarhi was convinced of the goal of life through the instructions of Nārada, he did not wait even a moment to see his sons return, but left immediately.

Disunity between individual souls is so strong within this material world that even in a society of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, members sometimes appear disunited due to their having different opinions and leaning toward material things. Actually, in Kṛṣṇa consciousness there cannot be two opinions. There is only one goal: to serve Kṛṣṇa to one's best ability. If there is some disagreement over service, such disagreement is to be taken as spiritual. Those who are actually engaged in the service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead cannot be disunited in any circumstance.

The words tvat parataḥ are very significant in this verse. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is parataḥ parāt. The word para means transcendental, beyond this material world. The impersonal Brahman effulgence is beyond this material world, and this is called paraṁ padam. Āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padam (Bhāg. 10.2.32).

Thus the Personality of Godhead, Bhagavān, is parataḥ parāt, beyond Brahman and Paramātmā realization. In this connection, Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī points out that parataḥ parāt means \"better than the best.\" The best is the spiritual world, and it is known as Brahman. The Supreme Personality of Godhead, however, is known as Parabrahman. Therefore parataḥ parāt means \"better than Brahman realization.\"", + "As will be explained in the next verses, the Pracetās planned to ask the Lord for something that has no limit.

Tatra tiṣṭhāmi nārada yatra gāyanti mad-bhaktāḥ. When the pure devotees assemble to chant, hear and talk about the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the place where they assemble becomes Vaikuṇṭha. For the devotee there is no need to pray to the Lord for transferal to the Vaikuṇṭha world. A pure devotee can create Vaikuṇṭha or Vṛndāvana anywhere simply by chanting the glories of the Lord without offense.", + "The Pracetās pray for an opportunity to hear of the glories of the Lord in every form of life (bhave bhave). A living entity transmigrates from one body to another. The devotee is not particularly eager to stop this process. Caitanya Mahāprabhu prays, mama janmani janmanīśvare bhavatād bhaktir ahaitukī tvayi: \"My dear Lord, life after life may I be fixed in Your pure devotional service.\" Out of humility, a devotee considers himself unfit to be transferred to the spiritual world. He always thinks himself contaminated by the modes of material nature. Nor is there any need for a devotee to ask to be freed from the modes of material nature. Devotional service itself is in the transcendental position; therefore there is no question of asking for this special facility. The conclusion is that a pure devotee is not anxious to stop the repetition of birth and death, but is always eager to associate with other devotees who are engaged in chanting and hearing about the glories of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/30/verses/34.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/30/verses/34.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..649ab77b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/04/chapters/30/verses/34.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 4, + "chapter": 30, + "verse": 34, + "reference": "SB 4.30.34", + "devanagari": "तुलयाम लवेनापि न स्वर्गं नापुनर्भवम्\nभगवत्संगिसंगस्य मर्त्यानां किम् उताशिषः", + "transliteration": "tulayāma lavenāpi\nna svargaṁ nāpunar-bhavam\nbhagavat-saṅgi-saṅgasya\nmartyānāṁ kim utāśiṣaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tulayāma", + "meanings": [ + "we compare" + ] + }, + { + "word": "lavena", + "meanings": [ + "with a moment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svargam", + "meanings": [ + "attainment of the heavenly planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apunaḥ-bhavam", + "meanings": [ + "merging into the Brahman effulgence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅgi", + "meanings": [ + "with associates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅgasya", + "meanings": [ + "of association" + ] + }, + { + "word": "martyānām", + "meanings": [ + "of persons who are destined to die" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim uta", + "meanings": [ + "how much less" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśiṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "benedictions." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Even a moment's association with a pure devotee cannot be compared to being transferred to heavenly planets or even merging into the Brahman effulgence in complete liberation.

It is not that the Āryans are unnecessarily inimical to living entities. The Āryans never maintain slaughterhouses, and they are never enemies of poor animals.

The basic flaw in modern civilization is that boys and girls are given freedom during school and college to enjoy sex life. Most of the children are varṇa-saṅkara, meaning born of undesirable fathers and mothers. Consequently the whole world is in chaos. Actually human civilization should be based on the Vedic principles. This means that in the beginning of life boys and girls should undergo penances and austerities. When they are grown, they should get married, live for some time at home and beget children.

King Prācīnabarhiṣat, the father of the Pracetās, left home before the arrival of his sons, who were engaged in austerity within the water. As soon as the time is ripe, or as soon as one has developed perfect Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he should leave home, even though all his duties may not be fulfilled. Prācīnabarhiṣat was waiting for the arrival of his sons, but, following the instructions of Nārada, as soon as his intelligence was properly developed, he simply left instructions for his ministers to impart to his sons.

There are many other births besides human birth, but Nārada Muni is herein especially speaking of human birth. Among human beings there are different types of men.

The word nṛṇām indicates that lower animals do not engage in the devotional service of the Lord. In perfect human society everyone should engage in the devotional service of the Lord. It does not matter whether one is born poor or rich, black or white. There may be so many material distinctions for one who takes birth in human society, but everyone should engage in the Lord's devotional service. At the present moment civilized nations have given up God consciousness for economic development. They are actually no longer interested in advancing in God consciousness. Formerly their forefathers were engaged in executing religious principles. Whether one is Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Jewish or whatever, everyone has some religious institution. Real religion, however, means becoming God conscious. It is particularly mentioned herein that birth is successful if an interest in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is taken. Activity is successful if it results in serving the Lord. Philosophical speculation or mental speculation is successful when engaged in understanding the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The senses are worth possessing when engaged in the service of the Lord. Actually, devotional service means engaging the senses in the service of the Lord. At the present moment our senses are not purified; therefore our senses are engaged in the service of society, friendship, love, politics, sociology and so on.

Animals can take their birth in this way too. However, a human being can be reformed from the śaukra janma, as recommended in the Vedic civilization.

This garbhādhāna-saṁskāra is especially recommended for higher castes, especially the brāhmaṇa caste. It is said in the śāstras that if the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra is not practiced among the higher castes, the entire family becomes śūdra. It is also stated that in this age of Kali, everyone is śūdra due to the absence of the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra. This is the Vedic system. According to the pāñcarātrika system, however, even though everyone is a śūdra due to the absence of the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra, if a person has but a little tendency to become Kṛṣṇa conscious, he should be given the chance to elevate himself to the transcendental platform of devotional service.

In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, we therefore offer the student his first initiation and allow him to chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra. By chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra regularly and following the regulative principles, one becomes qualified to be initiated as a brāhmaṇa, because unless one is a qualified brāhmaṇa he cannot be allowed to worship Lord Viṣṇu. This is called yājñika janma. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness society, unless one is twice initiated—first by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa and second by the Gāyatrī mantra—he is not allowed to enter the kitchen or Deity room to execute duties.

The fact is, however, that although karma and jñāna cannot be successful without bhakti, bhakti does not require the help of karma and jñāna.

The mission of human life is to realize one's self and then gradually to go back home, back to Godhead. Since Nārada Muni instructed the King fully on this subject, why did he again enter household life, which is the main cause of material bondage? Mahārāja Parīkṣit was greatly astonished that King Priyavrata remained in household life, especially since he was not only a self-realized soul but also a first-class devotee of the Lord. A devotee actually has no attraction for household life, but surprisingly, King Priyavrata enjoyed household life very much. One may argue, \"Why is it wrong to enjoy household life?\" The reply is that in household life one becomes bound by the results of fruitive activities. The essence of household life is sense enjoyment, and as long as one engrosses his mind in working hard for sense enjoyment, one becomes bound by the reactions of fruitive activities. This ignorance of self-realization is the greatest defeat in human life. The human form of life is especially meant for getting out of the bondage of fruitive activities, but as long as one is forgetful of his life's mission and acts like an ordinary animal—eating, sleeping, mating and defending—he must continue his conditioned life of material existence. Such a life is called svarūpa-vismṛti, forgetfulness of one's real constitutional position. Therefore in Vedic civilization one is trained in the very beginning of life as a brahmacārī. A brahmacārī must execute austerities and refrain from sex indulgence. Therefore if one is completely trained in the principles of brahmacarya, he generally does not enter household life. He is then called a naiṣṭhika-brahmacārī, which indicates total celibacy. King Parīkṣit was thus astonished that the great King Priyavrata, although trained in the principles of naiṣṭhika-brahmacarya, entered household life.", + "The words bhāgavata ātmārāmaḥ are very significant in this verse. If one is self-satisfied as is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is called bhāgavata ātmārāmaḥ. There are different types of satisfaction. Karmīs are satisfied in their fruitive activities, jñānīs are satisfied to merge into the effulgence of Brahman, and devotees are satisfied to engage in the Lord's service. The Lord is self-satisfied because He is fully opulent, and one who is satisfied by serving Him is called bhāgavata ātmārāmaḥ. Manuṣyāṇāṁ sahasreṣu: out of many thousands of persons, one may endeavor for liberation, and of many thousands of persons attempting to become liberated, one may achieve liberation from the anxieties of material existence and become self-satisfied. Even that satisfaction, however, is not the ultimate satisfaction. The jñānīs and the karmīs have desires, as do the yogīs, but devotees have no desires. Satisfaction in the service of the Lord is called akāma, freedom from desire, and this is the ultimate satisfaction. Therefore Mahārāja Parīkṣit inquired, \"How could one who was fully satisfied on the highest platform be satisfied with family life?\"", + "The word parābhavaḥ in this verse is also significant. When one is satisfied in family life, he is doomed because he must already have forgotten his relationship with the Lord.

The glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is praised in eloquent, transcendental verses by such exalted personalities as Brahmā, are very pleasing to great devotees and liberated persons. One who is attached to the nectarean honey of the Lord's lotus feet, and whose mind is always absorbed in His glories, may sometimes be checked by some impediment, but he still never gives up the exalted position he has acquired.", + "purport": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī accepted both of the King's propositions—that a person who is advanced in Kṛṣṇa consciousness cannot embrace materialistic life again and that one who has embraced materialistic life cannot take up Kṛṣṇa consciousness at any stage of his existence. Although accepting both these statements, Śukadeva Gosvāmī qualified them by saying that a person who has once absorbed his mind in the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead may sometimes be influenced by impediments, but he still does not give up his exalted devotional position.", + "According to Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura, there are two kinds of impediments to devotional service. The first is an offense at the lotus feet of a Vaiṣṇava. This is called vaiṣṇava-aparādha. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu warned His devotees not to commit vaiṣṇava-aparādha, which He described as the mad elephant offense. When a mad elephant enters a beautiful garden, it destroys everything, leaving a barren field. Similarly, the power of vaiṣṇava-aparādha is so great that even an advanced devotee becomes almost devoid of his spiritual assets if he commits it. Since Kṛṣṇa consciousness is eternal, it cannot be destroyed altogether, but advancement may be checked for the time being. Thus vaiṣṇava-aparādha is one kind of impediment to devotional service. Sometimes, however, the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His devotee desires to impede one's devotional service. For example, Hiraṇyakaśipu and Hiraṇyākṣa were formerly Jaya and Vijaya, the gatekeepers in Vaikuṇṭha, but by the desire of the Lord, they became His enemies for three lives. Thus the desire of the Lord is another kind of impediment. But in both cases, the pure devotee, once advanced in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, cannot be lost. Following the orders of his superiors (Svāyambhuva and Lord Brahmā), Priyavrata accepted family life, but this did not mean he lost his position in devotional service. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is perfect and eternal, and therefore it cannot be lost under any circumstances. Because the material world is full of obstructions to advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, there may appear to be many impediments, yet Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, declares in Bhagavad-gītā (9.31), kaunteya pratijānīhi na me bhaktaḥ praṇaśyati: once one has taken shelter at the lotus feet of the Lord, he cannot be lost.", + "In this verse, the word śivatamām is very significant. Śivatamām means \"the most auspicious.\" The devotional path is so auspicious that a devotee cannot be lost under any circumstances. This is described in the Śrīmad Bhagavad-gītā by the Lord Himself. Pārtha naiveha nāmutra vināśas tasya vidyate: \"My dear Arjuna, for a devotee there is no question of being lost, either in this life or in the next.\" (Bg. 6.40) In Bhagavad-gītā (6.43) the Lord clearly explains how this is so.", + "tatra taṁ buddhi-saṁyogaṁ
labhate paurva-dehikam

saṁsiddhau kuru-nandana", + "By the order of the Lord, a perfect devotee sometimes comes to this material world like an ordinary human being. Because of his previous practice, such a perfect devotee naturally becomes attached to devotional service, apparently without cause. Despite all kinds of impediments due to surrounding circumstances, he automatically perseveres in devotional service and gradually advances until he once again becomes perfect. Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura had been an advanced devotee in his previous life, but in his next life he became greatly fallen and was attached to a prostitute. Suddenly, however, his entire behavior was changed by the words of the very prostitute who had so much attracted him, and he became a great devotee. In the lives of exalted devotees, there are many such instances, proving that once one has taken to the shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord, he cannot be lost (kaunteya pratijānīhi na me bhaktaḥ praṇaśyati).", + "The fact is, however, that one becomes a devotee when he is completely freed from all reactions to sinful life.

He tried to convince Priyavrata that this was his duty as indicated in the revealed scriptures. Prince Priyavrata, however, was continuously practicing bhakti-yoga by constantly remembering the Supreme Personality of Godhead, thus engaging all his senses in the service of the Lord.

While thus serving the Lord, he deals externally with worldly affairs without being affected. For example, although he has no attraction for his children, he cares for them and educates them to become devotees. Similarly, he speaks to his wife with affectionate words, but he is not attached to her. By rendering devotional service, a devotee acquires all the good qualities of the Supreme Lord. Lord Kṛṣṇa had sixteen thousand wives, all of them very beautiful, and although He dealt with each of them as a beloved husband, He was not attracted or attached to any of them. In the same way, although a devotee may enter family life and act very affectionately toward his wife and children, he is never attached to these activities.", + "This verse states that by serving the lotus feet of his spiritual master, Prince Priyavrata very soon attained the perfectional stage of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

Just as an ordinary man always engages his mind in material activities, a devotee always engages his mind in spiritual activities. This is called brahma-satra, or meditating upon the Supreme Lord always. Prince Priyavrata was perfectly initiated into this practice by Śrī Nārada." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/01/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/01/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1b72767e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/01/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,137 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 5.1.7", + "devanagari": "अथ ह भगवान् आदिदेव एतस्य गुणविसर्गस्य \nपरिबृंहणानुध्यानव्यवसितसकलजगदभिप्राय आत्मयोनिर् \nअखिलनिगमनिजगणपरिवेष्टितः स्वभवनाद् अवततार.", + "transliteration": "atha ha bhagavān ādi-deva etasya guṇa-visargasya \nparibṛṁhaṇānudhyāna-vyavasita-sakala-jagad-abhiprāya ātma-yonir \nakhila-nigama-nija-gaṇa-pariveṣṭitaḥ sva-bhavanād avatatāra.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ha", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the most powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādi-devaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the first demigod" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etasya", + "meanings": [ + "of this universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa-visargasya", + "meanings": [ + "the creation of the three modes of material nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paribṛṁhaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "the welfare" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anudhyāna", + "meanings": [ + "always thinking of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyavasita", + "meanings": [ + "known" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakala", + "meanings": [ + "whole" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagat", + "meanings": [ + "of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiprāyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by whom the ultimate purpose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoniḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose source of birth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akhila", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nigama", + "meanings": [ + "by the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nija-gaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by personal associates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pariveṣṭitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being surrounded" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-bhavanāt", + "meanings": [ + "from his own abode" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avatatāra", + "meanings": [ + "descended." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: The first created being and most powerful demigod in this universe is Lord Brahmā, who is always responsible for developing universal affairs. Born directly from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he dedicates his activities to the welfare of the entire universe, for he knows the purpose of the universal creation. This supremely powerful Lord Brahmā, accompanied by his associates and the personified Vedas, left his own abode in the highest planetary system and descended to the place of Prince Priyavrata's meditation.", + "purport": [ + "Lord Viṣṇu, the Supreme Self (ātmā), is the source of everything, as explained in the Vedānta-sūtra: janmādy asya yataḥ. Because Brahmā was born directly from Lord Viṣṇu, he is called ātma-yoni. He is also called bhagavān, although generally bhagavān refers to the Supreme Personality of Godhead (Viṣṇu or Lord Kṛṣṇa). Sometimes great personalities—such as demigods like Lord Brahmā, Nārada or Lord Śiva—are also addressed as bhagavān because they carry out the purpose of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Lord Brahmā is called bhagavān because he is the secondary creator of this universe. He is always thinking of how to improve the situation of the conditioned souls who have come to the material world to enjoy material activities. For this reason, he disseminates the Vedic knowledge throughout the universe for everyone's guidance.", + "Vedic knowledge is divided into two parts: pravṛtti-mārga and nivṛtti-mārga. Nivṛtti-mārga is the path of negating sense enjoyment, and pravṛtti-mārga is the path by which the living entities are given a chance to enjoy and at the same time are directed in such a way that they can go back home, back to Godhead. Because ruling over this universe is a great responsibility, Brahmā must force many Manus in different ages to take charge of universal affairs. Under each Manu there are different kings who also execute the purpose of Lord Brahmā. It is understood from previous explanations that the father of Dhruva Mahārāja, King Uttānapāda, ruled over the universe because his elder brother, Priyavrata, practiced austerity from the very beginning of his life. Thus up to the point of the Pracetās, the kings of the universe were all descendants of Uttānapāda Mahārāja. Since there were no suitable kings after the Pracetās, Svāyambhuva Manu went to the Gandhamādana Hill to bring back his eldest son, Priyavrata, who was meditating there. Svāyambhuva Manu requested Priyavrata to rule over the universe. When he refused, Lord Brahmā descended from the supreme planetary system, known as Satyaloka, to request Priyavrata to accept the order. Lord Brahmā did not come alone. He came with other great sages like Marīci, Ātreya and Vasiṣṭha. To convince Priyavrata that it was necessary for him to follow the Vedic injunctions and accept the responsibility of ruling over the world, Lord Brahmā also brought with him the personified Vedas, his constant associates.", + "A significant word in this verse is sva-bhavanāt, indicating that Lord Brahmā descended from his own abode. Every demigod has his own abode. Indra, the King of the demigods, has his own abode, as do Candra, the lord of the moon planet, and Sūrya, the predominating deity of the sun planet. There are many millions of demigods, and the stars and planets are their respective homes. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā. Yānti deva-vratā devān: \"Those who worship the demigods go to their different planetary systems.\" Lord Brahmā's abode, the highest planetary system, is called Satyaloka or sometimes Brahmaloka. Brahmaloka usually refers to the spiritual world.

We each get a body according to our association with the guṇas, the qualities or modes of material nature, and we act accordingly. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, the four orders of the social system—namely brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra—are arranged according to guṇa and karma, their qualities and work. There is some controversy about this, however, because some say that since one receives a body according to the guṇa and karma of his past life, it is one's birth that determines his social status. Others say, however, that one's birth according to the guṇa and karma of his past life is not the essential consideration, since one can change his guṇa and karma even in this life. Thus they say that the four divisions of the social order—brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra—should be arranged according to the guṇa and karma of this life. This version is confirmed in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam by Nārada Muni. While instructing Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira about the symptoms of guṇa and karma, Nārada Muni said that these symptoms must govern the division of society. In other words, if a person born in the family of a brāhmaṇa has the symptoms of a śūdra, he should be designated as a śūdra. Similarly, if a śūdra has brahminical qualities, he should be designated a brāhmaṇa.", + "The varṇāśrama system is scientific. Therefore if we accept the divisions of varṇa and āśrama according to the Vedic instructions, our lives will be successful. Unless human society is thus divided and arranged, it cannot be perfect.

There is no other way to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One must be situated in the institution of the four varṇas and āśramas.\" All of human society is meant to worship Lord Viṣṇu. At the present moment, however, human society does not know that this is the ultimate goal or perfection of life. Therefore instead of worshiping Lord Viṣṇu, people have been educated to worship matter. According to the direction of modern society, men think they can advance in civilization by manipulating matter to build skyscrapers, big roads, automobiles and so on. Such a civilization must certainly be called materialistic because its people do not know the goal of life. The goal of life is to reach Viṣṇu, but instead of reaching Viṣṇu, people are bewildered by the external manifestation of the material energy. Therefore progress in material advancement is blind, and the leaders of such material advancement are also blind. They are leading their followers in the wrong way.", + "It is best, therefore, to accept the injunctions of the Vedas, which are mentioned in this verse as yad-vāci. In accordance with those injunctions, everyone should find out whether he is a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya or śūdra and should thus be educated accordingly. Then his life will be successful. Otherwise, all of human society will be confused. If human society is divided scientifically according to varṇa and āśrama, and if the Vedic directions are followed, one's life, regardless of his position, will be successful. It is not that brāhmaṇas will be elevated to the transcendental platform but not the śūdras. If the Vedic injunctions are followed, all of them—brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras—will be elevated to the transcendental platform, and their lives will be successful. The injunctions in the Vedas are explicit directions from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The example cited in this verse is that bulls tied by ropes in their nostrils move according to the direction of the driver. Similarly, if we move according to the instructions of the Vedas, the perfect paths for our lives will be set. Otherwise, if we do not move in that way but act according to our whimsical ideas, our lives will be spoiled by confusion and will end in despair. Actually, because people at the present moment are not following the instructions of the Vedas, they are all confused. We must therefore accept this instruction by Lord Brahmā to Priyavrata as the factual scientific direction leading to the success of life.

While sleeping, one dreams many unreal things, but when he awakens he disregards them and makes progress in factual life. Similarly, a liberated person—one who has completely understood that he is not the body but a spirit soul—disregards past activities performed in ignorance and performs his present activities in such a way that they produce no reactions.

Lord Brahmā then returned to his celestial abode, known as Satyaloka, which is described here as being impeccable and being unapproachable by words.", + "It is stated in this verse that Lord Brahmā returned to his residence, which is as important as his own personality. Lord Brahmā is the creator of this universe and the most exalted personality within it. His lifetime is described in Bhagavad-gītā (8.17). Sahasra-yuga-paryantam ahar yad brahmaṇo viduḥ. The total duration of the four yugas is 4,300,000 years, and when that is multiplied a thousand times, it equals twelve hours in the life of Brahmā. Therefore we cannot factually comprehend even twelve hours of Brahmā's life, to say nothing of the one hundred years that constitute his entire lifetime. How, then, can we understand his abode? The Vedic literatures describe that in Satyaloka there is no birth, death, old age or disease. In other words, since Satyaloka is situated next to Brahmaloka, or the Brahman effulgence, it is almost as good as Vaikuṇṭhaloka. Lord Brahmā's abode is practically indescribable from our present status. Therefore it has been described as avāṅ-manasa-gocara, or beyond the description of our words and the imagination of our minds. The Vedic literatures thus describe the abode of Lord Brahmā: yad vai parārdhyaṁ tad upārameṣṭhyaṁ na yatra śoko na jarā na mṛtyur nārtir na codvegaḥ [Bhāg. 2.2.26-27]. \"In Satyaloka, which is situated many millions and billions of years away, there is no lamentation, nor is there old age, death, anxiety or the influence of enemies.\"" + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/01/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/01/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bd29b45f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/01/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,148 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 5.1.22", + "devanagari": "मनुर् अपि परेणैवं प्रतिसन्धितमनोरथः सुरर्षि\nवरानुमतेनात्मजम् अखिलधरामण्डलस्थितिगुप्तय आस्थाप्य \nस्वयम् अतिविषमविषयविषजलाशयाशाया उपरराम.", + "transliteration": "manur api pareṇaivaṁ pratisandhita-manorathaḥ surarṣi-\nvarānumatenātmajam akhila-dharā-maṇḍala-sthiti-guptaya āsthāpya \nsvayam ati-viṣama-viṣaya-viṣa-jalāśayāśāyā upararāma.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "manuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Svāyambhuva Manu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pareṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratisandhita", + "meanings": [ + "executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ-rathaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "his mental aspiration" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sura-ṛṣi-vara", + "meanings": [ + "of the great sage Nārada" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anumatena", + "meanings": [ + "by the permission" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-jam", + "meanings": [ + "his son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akhila", + "meanings": [ + "of the entire universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharā-maṇḍala", + "meanings": [ + "of planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthiti", + "meanings": [ + "maintenance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guptaye", + "meanings": [ + "for the protection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsthāpya", + "meanings": [ + "establishing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "personally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ati-viṣama", + "meanings": [ + "very dangerous" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣaya", + "meanings": [ + "material affairs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣa", + "meanings": [ + "of poison" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jala-āśaya", + "meanings": [ + "ocean" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśāyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upararāma", + "meanings": [ + "got relief." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Svāyambhuva Manu, with the assistance of Lord Brahmā, thus fulfilled his desires.

Now he was very pleased that Lord Brahmā had interfered by inducing his son to accept the responsibility for ruling the government of the universe. From Bhagavad-gītā we get information that Vaivasvata Manu was the son of the sun-god and that his son, Mahārāja Ikṣvāku, ruled this planet earth. Svāyambhuva Manu, however, appears to have been in charge of the entire universe, and he entrusted to his son, Mahārāja Priyavrata, the responsibility for maintaining and protecting all the planetary systems. Dharā-maṇḍala means \"planet.\" This earth, for instance, is called dharā-maṇḍala. Akhila, however, means \"all\" or \"universal.\" It is therefore difficult to understand where Mahārāja Priyavrata was situated, but from this literature his position certainly appears greater than that of Vaivasvata Manu, for he was entrusted with all the planetary systems of the entire universe.", + "Another significant statement is that Svāyambhuva Manu took great satisfaction from abnegating the responsibility for ruling all the planetary systems of the universe. At present, politicians are very eager to take charge of the government, and they engage their men in canvassing from door to door to get votes to win the post of president or a similar exalted office. On the contrary, however, herein we find that King Priyavrata had to be persuaded by Lord Brahmā to accept the post of emperor of the entire universe. Similarly, his father, Svāyambhuva Manu, felt relieved to entrust the universal government to Priyavrata. Thus it is evident that the kings and executive heads of government in the Vedic age never accepted their positions for sense enjoyment. Such exalted kings, who were known as rājarṣis, ruled only to maintain and protect the kingdom for the welfare of the citizens. The history of Priyavrata and Svāyambhuva Manu describes how exemplary, responsible monarchs performed the duties of government with disinterest, keeping themselves always aloof from the contamination of material attachment.", + "Material affairs have herein been compared to an ocean of poison. They have been described in a similar way by Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura in one of his songs:", + "saṁsāra-viṣānale, divā-niśi hiyā jvale,

How unfortunate I am that I have no attraction for this.\" Manu wanted to seek shelter at the lotus feet of the Lord, and therefore when his son Priyavrata took charge of his worldly affairs, Manu was very relieved. That is the system of Vedic civilization. At the end of life, one must free himself from worldly affairs and completely engage in the service of the Lord.", + "The word surarṣi-vara-anumatena is also significant. Manu entrusted the government to his son with the permission of the great saint Nārada.

They concentrated their minds always upon the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the resting place of the totality of living entities and who is therefore celebrated as Vāsudeva. Lord Vāsudeva is the only shelter of those who are actually afraid of material existence. By constantly thinking of His lotus feet, these three sons of Mahārāja Priyavrata became advanced in pure devotional service. By the prowess of their devotional service, they could directly perceive the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is situated in everyone's heart as the Supersoul, and realize that there was qualitatively no difference between themselves and Him.", + "purport": [ + "The paramahaṁsa stage is the topmost position in renounced life. In sannyāsa, the renounced order, there are four stages—kuṭīcaka, bahūdaka, parivrājakācārya and paramahaṁsa. According to the Vedic system, when one accepts the renounced order, he stays outside his village in a cottage, and his necessities, especially his food, are supplied from home. This is called the kuṭīcaka stage. When a sannyāsī advances further, he no longer accepts anything from home: instead, he collects his necessities, especially his food, from many places. This system is called mādhukarī, which literally means \"the profession of the bumblebees.\" As bumblebees collect honey from many flowers, a little from each, so a sannyāsī should beg from door to door but not accept very much food from any particular house; he should collect a little bit from every house. This is called the bahūdaka stage. When a sannyāsī is still more experienced, he travels all over the world to preach the glories of Lord Vāsudeva. He is then known as parivrājakācārya. The sannyāsī reaches the paramahaṁsa stage when he finishes his preaching work and sits down in one place, strictly for the sake of advancing in spiritual life. An actual paramahaṁsa is one who completely controls his senses and engages in the unalloyed service of the Lord. Therefore all three of these sons of Priyavrata, namely Kavi, Mahāvīra and Savana, were situated in the paramahaṁsa stage from the very beginning. Their senses could not disturb them, for their senses were completely engaged in serving the Lord. Therefore the three brothers are described in this verse as upaśama-śīlāḥ. Upaśama means \"completely subdued.\" Because they completely subdued their senses, they are understood to have been great sages and saints.", + "After subduing their senses, the three brothers concentrated their minds upon the lotus feet of Vāsudeva, Lord Kṛṣṇa. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (7.19), vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti. The lotus feet of Vāsudeva are everything. Lord Vāsudeva is the reservoir of all living entities. When this cosmic manifestation is dissolved, all living entities enter the supreme body of the Lord, Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, who merges within the body of Mahā-Viṣṇu. Both of these viṣṇu-tattvas are vāsudeva-tattvas, and therefore the great sages Kavi, Mahāvīra and Savana concentrated always upon the lotus feet of Lord Vāsudeva, Kṛṣṇa. In this way they could understand that the Supersoul within the heart is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and they could recognize their identity with Him. The complete description of this realization is that simply by discharging the unalloyed form of devotional service, one can realize his self completely. The parama-bhakti-yoga mentioned in this verse means that a living entity, by dint of unalloyed devotional service, has no other interest than the service of the Lord, as described in Bhagavad-gītā (vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti). By parama-bhakti-yoga, by elevating oneself to the highest platform of loving service, one can automatically be relieved from the bodily concept of life and see the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face.

To maintain proper social order and help the citizens gradually progress toward the goal of life—namely spiritual understanding—the principles of varṇāśrama-dharma must be accepted. From this verse, Mahārāja Priyavrata appears to have been so strict in maintaining this institution of varṇāśrama-dharma that anyone neglecting it would immediately flee from his presence as soon as the King warned him by fighting or administering light punishment. Indeed, Mahārāja Priyavrata would not have to fight, for simply because of his strong determination, they dared not disobey the rules and regulations of varṇāśrama-dharma. It is said that unless human society is regulated by varṇāśrama-dharma, it is no better than a bestial society of cats and dogs. Mahārāja Priyavrata, therefore, strictly maintained varṇāśrama-dharma by his extraordinary, unparalleled prowess.", + "To maintain such a life of strict vigilance, one needs encouragement from his wife. In the varṇāśrama-dharma system, certain classes, such as the brāhmaṇas and sannyāsīs, do not need encouragement from the opposite sex. Kṣatriyas and gṛhasthas, however, actually need the encouragement of their wives in order to execute their duties. Indeed, a gṛhastha or kṣatriya cannot properly execute his responsibilities without the association of his wife. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu personally admitted that a gṛhastha must live with a wife. Kṣatriyas were even allowed to have many wives to encourage them in discharging the duties of government. The association of a good wife is necessary in a life of karma and political affairs. To execute his duties properly, therefore, Mahārāja Priyavrata took advantage of his good wife Barhiṣmatī, who was always very expert in pleasing her great husband by properly dressing herself, smiling, and exhibiting her feminine bodily features. Queen Barhiṣmatī always kept Mahārāja Priyavrata very encouraged, and thus he executed his governmental duty very properly. In this verse iva has twice been used to indicate that Mahārāja Priyavrata acted exactly like a henpecked husband and thereby seemed to have lost his sense of human responsibility. Actually, however, he was fully conscious of his position as a spirit soul, although he seemingly behaved like an acquiescent karmī husband. Mahārāja Priyavrata thus ruled the universe for eleven arbudas of years.

This verse clearly says, sa jahāti bandham: \"He gives up his material bondage.\" The body is a symbolic representation of material bondage according to one's karma. Although sometimes we cannot see the gross body changing, chanting the holy name of the Supreme Lord immediately changes the subtle body, and because the subtle body changes, the living entity is immediately freed from material bondage. After all, changes of the gross body are conducted by the subtle body. After the destruction of the gross body, the subtle body takes the living entity from his present gross body to another. In the subtle body, the mind is predominant, and therefore if one's mind is always absorbed in remembering the activities or the lotus feet of the Lord, he is to be understood to have already changed his present body and become purified.

How he ruled the citizens is also described here—dharmāvekṣamāṇaḥ, strictly according to religious principles. It is the duty of the executive head of a state to see that the citizens strictly follow religious principles. The Vedic religious principles begin with varṇāśrama-dharma, the duties of the four varṇas and four āśramas. Dharma refers to principles given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The first principle of dharma, or religion, is to observe the duties of the four orders as enjoined by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. According to people's qualities and activities, society should be divided into brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras and then again into brahmacārīs, gṛhasthas, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs. These are religious principles, and it is the duty of the head of state to see that his citizens strictly follow them. He should not merely act officially; he should be like a father who is always a well-wisher of his sons. Such a father strictly observes whether his sons are performing their duties, and sometimes he also punishes them.", + "Just contrary to the principles mentioned here, the presidents and chief executives in the age of Kali are simply tax collectors who do not care whether religious principles are observed. Indeed, the chief executives of the present day introduce all kinds of sinful activity, especially illicit sex, intoxication, animal killing and gambling. These sinful activities are now very prominently manifested in India. Although a hundred years ago these four principles of sinful life were strictly prohibited in the families of India, they have now been introduced into every Indian family; therefore they cannot follow religious principles. In contrast to the principles of the kings of old, the modern state is concerned only with propaganda for levying taxes and is no longer responsible for the spiritual welfare of the citizens. The state is now callous to religious principles. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam predicts that in Kali-yuga the government will be entrusted with dasyu-dharma, which means the occupational duty of rogues and thieves. Modern heads of state are rogues and thieves who plunder the citizens instead of giving them protection. Rogues and thieves plunder without regard for law, but in this age of Kali, as stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the lawmakers themselves plunder the citizens. The next prediction to be fulfilled, which is already coming to pass, is that because of the sinful activities of the citizens and the government, rain will become increasingly scarce. Gradually there will be complete drought and no production of food grains. People will be reduced to eating flesh and seeds, and many good, spiritually inclined people will have to forsake their homes because they will be too harassed by drought, taxation and famine.

Pitṛloka is mentioned in Bhagavad-gītā (yānti deva-vratā devān pitèn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ). To go to this planet, one needs very good sons who can make offerings to Lord Viṣṇu and then offer the remnants to their forefathers. The purpose of the śrāddha ceremony is to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Viṣṇu, so that after pleasing Him one may offer prasāda to one's forefathers and in this way make them happy. The inhabitants of Pitṛloka are generally men of the karma-kāṇḍīya, or fruitive activities category, who have been transferred there because of their pious activities. They can stay there as long as their descendants offer them viṣṇu-prasādam. Everyone in heavenly planets such as Pitṛloka, however, must return to earth after exhausting the effects of his pious acts. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (9.21), kṣīṇe puṇye martya-lokaṁ viśanti: persons who perform pious acts are transferred to higher planets, but when the effects of their pious acts are over, they are again transferred to earth.", + "Since Mahārāja Priyavrata was a great devotee, how could he have begotten a son who desired to be transferred to Pitṛloka? Lord Kṛṣṇa says, pitèn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ: persons who desire to go to Pitṛloka are transferred there. Similarly, yānti mad-yājino 'pi mām: persons who desire to be transferred to the spiritual planets, Vaikuṇṭhalokas, can also go there. Since Mahārāja Āgnīdhra was the son of a Vaiṣṇava, he should have desired to be transferred to the spiritual world, Vaikuṇṭhaloka. Why, then, did he desire to be transferred to Pitṛloka? In answer to this, Gosvāmī Giridhara, one of the Bhāgavatam commentators, remarks that Āgnīdhra was born when Mahārāja Priyavrata was infatuated by lusty desires. This may be accepted as a fact because sons are begotten with different mentalities according to the time of their conception. According to the Vedic system, therefore, before a child is conceived, the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra is performed. This ceremony molds the mentality of the father in such a way that when he plants his seed in the womb of his wife, he will beget a child whose mind will be completely saturated with a devotional attitude. At the present moment, however, there are no such garbhādhāna-saṁskāras, and therefore people generally have a lusty attitude when they beget children. Especially in this age of Kali, there are no garbhādhāna ceremonies; everyone enjoys sex with his wife like a cat or dog. Therefore according to śāstric injunctions, almost all the people of this age belong to the śūdra category. Of course, although Mahārāja Āgnīdhra had a desire to be transferred to Pitṛloka, this does not mean that his mentality was that of a śūdra; he was a kṣatriya.", + "Mahārāja Āgnīdhra desired to be transferred to Pitṛloka, and therefore he needed a wife because anyone desiring to be transferred to Pitṛloka must leave behind a good son to offer yearly piṇḍa, or prasāda from Lord Viṣṇu. To have a good son, Mahārāja Āgnīdhra wanted a wife from a family of demigods. Therefore he went to Mandara Hill, where the women of the demigods generally come, to worship Lord Brahmā. In Bhagavad-gītā (4.12) it is said, kāṅkṣantaḥ karmaṇāṁ siddhiṁ yajanta iha devatāḥ: materialists who want quick results in the material world worship demigods. This is also confirmed in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Śrī-aiśvarya-prajepsavaḥ: those who desire beautiful wives, substantial wealth and many sons worship the demigods, but an intelligent devotee, instead of being entangled by the happiness of this material world in the form of a beautiful wife, material opulence and children, desires to be immediately transferred back home, back to Godhead.

Dhyānāvasthita-tad-gatena manasā paśyanti yaṁ yoginaḥ (Bhāg. 12.13.1). The Supreme Personality of Godhead is always observed by yogīs who practice controlling the venomous senses. As recommended in Bhagavad-gītā, yogīs should practice samprekṣya nāsikāgram, keeping their eyes half-open. If the eyes are closed completely, there will be a tendency to sleep. So-called yogīs sometimes practice a fashionable form of yoga by closing their eyes and meditating, but we have actually seen such so-called yogīs sleeping and snoring while meditating. This is not the practice of yoga. To actually practice yoga, one should keep his eyes half-open and gaze at the tip of his nose.", + "Although Āgnīdhra, the son of Priyavrata, was practicing mystic yoga and trying to control his senses, the tinkling sound of Pūrvacitti's ankle bells disturbed his practice. Yoga indriya-saṁyamaḥ: actual yoga practice means controlling the senses. One must practice mystic yoga, to control the senses, but the sense control of a devotee who fully engages in the service of the Lord with his purified senses (hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanam) can never be disturbed. Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī therefore stated, durdāntendriya-kāla-sarpa-paṭalī protkhāta-daṁṣṭra-yate (Caitanya-candrāmṛta 5). The practice of yoga is undoubtedly good because it controls the senses, which are like venomous serpents. When one engages in devotional service, however, completely employing all the activities of the senses in the service of the Lord, the venomous quality of the senses is completely nullified. It is explained that a serpent is to be feared because of its poison fangs, but if those fangs are broken, the serpent, although it seems fearsome, is not at all dangerous. Devotees, therefore, may see hundreds and thousands of beautiful women with fascinating bodily movements and gestures but not be allured, whereas such women would make ordinary yogīs fall. Even the advanced yogī Viśvāmitra broke his mystic practice to unite with Menakā and beget a child known as Śakuntalā. The practice of mystic yoga, therefore, is not sufficiently strong to control the senses. Another example is Prince Āgnīdhra, whose attention was drawn to the movements of Pūrvacitti, the Apsarā, simply because he heard the tinkling of her ankle bells. In the same way that Viśvāmitra Muni was attracted by the tinkling bangles of Menakā, Prince Āgnīdhra, upon hearing the tinkling bangles of Pūrvacitti, immediately opened his eyes to see her beautiful movements as she walked. The prince was also very handsome. As described herein, his eyes were just like the buds of lotus flowers. As he opened his lotuslike eyes, he could immediately see that the Apsarā was present by his side." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git

honeybee, the Apsarā smelled the beautiful and attractive flowers. She could attract the minds and vision of both humans and demigods by her playful movements, her shyness and humility, her glances, the very pleasing sounds that poured from her mouth as she spoke, and the motion of her limbs. By all these qualities, she opened for Cupid, who bears an arrow of flowers, a path of aural reception into the minds of men. When she spoke, nectar seemed to flow from her mouth. As she breathed, the bees, mad for the taste of her breath, tried to hover about her beautiful lotuslike eyes. Disturbed by the bees, she tried to move hastily, but as she raised her feet to walk quickly, her hair, the belt on her hips, and her breasts, which were like water jugs, also moved in a way that made her extremely beautiful and attractive. Indeed, she seemed to be making a path for the entrance of Cupid, who is most powerful. Therefore the prince, completely subdued by seeing her, spoke to her as follows.", + "purport": [ + "How a beautiful woman's movements and gestures, her hair and the structure of her breasts, hips and other bodily features attract the minds not only of men but of demigods also is very finely described in this statement. The words divija and manuja specifically emphasize that the attraction of feminine gestures is powerful everywhere within this material world, both on this planet and in the higher planetary systems. It is said that the standard of living in the higher planetary systems is thousands and thousands of times higher than the standard of living on this planet. Therefore the beautiful bodily features of the women there are also thousands and thousands of times more attractive than the features of the women on earth. The creator has constructed women in such a way that their beautiful voices and movements and the beautiful features of their hips, their breasts, and the other parts of their bodies attract the members of the opposite sex, both on earth and on other planets, and awaken their lusty desires. When one is controlled by Cupid or the beauty of women, he becomes stunned like matter such as stone. Captivated by the material movements of women, he wants to remain in this material world. Thus one's promotion to the spiritual world is checked simply by seeing the beautiful bodily structure and movements of women. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has therefore warned all devotees to beware of the attraction of beautiful women and materialistic civilization. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu even refused to see Pratāparudra Mahārāja because he was a very opulent person in the material world. Lord Caitanya said in this connection, niṣkiñcanasya bhagavad-bhajanonmukhasya: those who are engaged in the devotional service of the Lord because they are very serious about going back home, back to Godhead, should be very careful to avoid seeing the beautiful gestures of women and should also avoid seeing persons who are very rich.", + "niṣkiñcanasya bhagavad-bhajanonmukhasya

Madhya 11.8) One who is serious about going back home, back to Godhead, should not contemplate the attractive features of women and the opulence of rich men.

He mistook her for a muni-putra, the son of a saintly person in the forest, and addressed her as muni-varya. Because of her personal beauty, however, he could not believe her to be a boy. He therefore began studying her features. First he saw her two eyebrows, which were so expressive that he wondered whether he or she might be the māyā of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The words used in this connection are bhagavat-para-devatāyāḥ. Devatāḥ, the demigods, all belong to this material world, whereas Bhagavān, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, is always beyond this material world and is therefore known as para-devatā.

Therefore, according to Manu-saṁhitā, a woman needs a great deal of protection in order to remain pure and chaste so that her children can be fully engaged for the benefit of human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/02/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/02/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6855543b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/02/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,113 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 5.2.22", + "devanagari": "आग्नीध्रो राजातृप्तः कामानाम् अप्सरसम् एवानुदिनम् अधि\nमन्यमानस्तस्याः सलोकतां श्रुतिभिर् अवारुन्ध यत्र पितरो \nमादयन्ते.", + "transliteration": "āgnīdhro rājātṛptaḥ kāmānām apsarasam evānudinam adhi-\nmanyamānas tasyāḥ salokatāṁ śrutibhir avārundha yatra pitaro \nmādayante.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "āgnīdhraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Āgnīdhra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājā", + "meanings": [ + "the King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atṛptaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "not satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmānām", + "meanings": [ + "with sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apsarasam", + "meanings": [ + "the celestial woman (Pūrvacitti)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anudinam", + "meanings": [ + "day after day" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhi", + "meanings": [ + "exceedingly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manyamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "thinking of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of her" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-lokatām", + "meanings": [ + "promotion to the same planet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śrutibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avārundha", + "meanings": [ + "got" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yatra", + "meanings": [ + "where" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the forefathers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mādayante", + "meanings": [ + "take pleasure." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After Pūrvacitti's departure, King Āgnīdhra, his lusty desires not at all satisfied, always thought of her.

The Supreme Personality of Godhead is also a living being, but He is the supreme living being. In Bhagavad-gītā (7.7), Lord Kṛṣṇa Himself says, mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyat kiñcid asti dhanañjaya: \"O conqueror of wealth [Arjuna], there is no truth superior to Me.\" No one is more attractive or more authoritative than Lord Kṛṣṇa. That is one of the differences between God and an ordinary living being. According to this description of the transcendental body of Lord Viṣṇu, the Lord can easily be distinguished from all other living beings. Consequently Mahārāja Nābhi and his priests and associates all offered the Lord obeisances and began to worship Him with various things. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (6.22), yaṁ labdhvā cāparaṁ lābhaṁ manyate nādhikaṁ tataḥ. That is, \"Upon gaining this, one thinks that there is no greater gain.\" When one realizes God and sees the Lord face to face, one certainly thinks that he has gained the best of all things.

He can supply water Himself, and He did so in this case. In Bhagavad-gītā, it is stated: yajñād bhavati parjanyaḥ. Due to the performance of yajña, clouds of water are manifest in the sky. Clouds and rainfall are under the management of Indra, the heavenly King, but when Indra is neglectful, the Supreme Lord Himself, who is also known as yajña or yajña-pati, takes the task upon Himself. Consequently there was sufficient rainfall in the place named Ajanābha. When yajña-pati wants to, He can do anything without the help of any subordinate. Therefore the Supreme Lord is known as almighty. In the present age of Kali there will eventually be a great scarcity of water (anāvṛṣṭi), for the general populace, due to ignorance and the scarcity of yajñic ingredients, will neglect to perform yajñas. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam therefore advises: yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyaiḥ yajanti hi sumedhasaḥ. After all, yajña is meant to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In this age of Kali, there is great scarcity and ignorance; nonetheless, everyone can perform saṅkīrtana-yajña. Every family in every society can conduct saṅkīrtana-yajña at least every evening.

It is the duty of the king to rule the citizens according to Vedic principles. According to Vedic principles, society is divided into four categories—brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra.

One must stop the process of repeated birth and death and return home, back to Godhead. The words tan-mahimānam avāpa are significant in this regard. Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī says that mahimā means liberation in this life. We should act in such a way in this life that after giving up this body, we will become liberated from the bondage of repeated birth and death. This is called jīvan-mukti. Śrīla Vīrarāghava Ācārya states that in the Chāndogya Upaniṣad there are eight symptoms of a jīvan-mukta, a person who is already liberated even when living in this body. The first symptom of one so liberated is that he is freed from all sinful activity (apahata-pāpa). As long as one is under the clutches of māyā in the material energy, one has to engage in sinful activity. Bhagavad-gītā describes such people as duṣkṛtinaḥ, which indicates that they are always engaged in sinful activity. One who is liberated in this life does not commit any sinful activities. Sinful activity involves illicit sex, meat-eating, intoxication and gambling. Another symptom of a liberated person is vijara, which indicates that he is not subjected to the miseries of old age. Another symptom is vimṛtyu. A liberated person prepares himself in such a way that he does not take on any more material bodies, which are destined to die. In other words, he does not fall down again to repeat birth and death. Another symptom is viśoka, which indicates that he is callous to material distress and happiness. Another is vijighatsa, which indicates that he no longer desires material enjoyment. Another symptom is apipātā, which means that he has no desire other than to engage in the devotional service of Kṛṣṇa, his dearmost pursuable Lord. A further symptom is satya-kāma, which indicates that all his desires are directed to the Supreme Truth, Kṛṣṇa. He does not want anything else. He is satya-saṅkalpa. Whatever he desires is fulfilled by the grace of Kṛṣṇa. First of all, he does not desire anything for his material benefit, and secondly if he desires anything at all, he simply desires to serve the Supreme Lord. That desire is fulfilled by the Lord's grace. That is called satya-saṅkalpa. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī points out that the word mahimā means returning to the spiritual world, back home, back to Vaikuṇṭha. Śrī Śukadeva says that the word mahimā means that the devotee attains the qualities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is called sadharma, or \"the same quality.\" Just as Kṛṣṇa is never born and never dies, His devotees who return to Godhead never die and never take birth within the material world." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/04/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/04/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2e77bc69 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/04/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,135 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 5.4.6", + "devanagari": "यस्य ह पाण्डवेय श्लोकाव् उदाहरन्ति—\nको नु तत्कर्म राजर्षेर्नाभेर् अन्व् आचरेत्पुमान्\nअपत्यताम् अगाद्यस्य हरिः शुद्धेन कर्मणा", + "transliteration": "yasya ha pāṇḍaveya ślokāv udāharanti—\nko nu tat karma rājarṣer\nnābher anv ācaret pumān\napatyatām agād yasya\nhariḥ śuddhena karmaṇā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "of whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ha", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāṇḍaveya", + "meanings": [ + "O Mahārāja Parīkṣit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ślokau", + "meanings": [ + "two verses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udāharanti", + "meanings": [ + "recite" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nu", + "meanings": [ + "then" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karma", + "meanings": [ + "work" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rāja-ṛṣeḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the pious King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nābheḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Nābhi" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anu", + "meanings": [ + "following" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ācaret", + "meanings": [ + "could execute" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pumān", + "meanings": [ + "a man" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apatyatām", + "meanings": [ + "sonhood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agāt", + "meanings": [ + "accepted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hariḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuddhena", + "meanings": [ + "pure, executed in devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmaṇā", + "meanings": [ + "by activities." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Mahārāja Parīkṣit, to glorify Mahārāja Nābhi, the old sages composed two verses.

After undergoing severe hardships all day, human beings are trying to enjoy themselves at night by eating, drinking, having sex and sleeping. At the same time, they have to properly defend themselves. However, this is not human civilization. Human life means voluntarily practicing suffering for the advancement of spiritual life. There is, of course, suffering in the lives of animals and plants, which are suffering due to their past misdeeds. However, human beings should voluntarily accept suffering in the form of austerities and penances in order to attain the divine life. After attaining the divine life, one can enjoy happiness eternally. After all, every living entity is trying to enjoy happiness, but as long as one is encaged in the material body, he has to suffer different kinds of misery. A higher sense is present in the human form. We should act according to superior advice in order to attain eternal happiness and go back to Godhead.", + "It is significant in this verse that the government and the natural guardian, the father, should educate subordinates and raise them to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Devoid of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, every living being suffers in this cycle of birth and death perpetually. To relieve them from this bondage and enable them to become blissful and happy, bhakti-yoga should be taught. A foolish civilization neglects to teach people how to rise to the platform of bhakti-yoga. Without Kṛṣṇa consciousness, a person is no better than a hog or dog. The instructions of Ṛṣabhadeva are very essential at the present moment. People are being educated and trained to work very hard for sense gratification, and there is no sublime aim in life. A man travels to earn his livelihood, leaving home early in the morning, catching a local train and being packed in a compartment. He has to stand for an hour or two in order to reach his place of business. Then again he takes a bus to get to the office. At the office he works hard from nine to five; then he takes two or three hours to return home. After eating, he has sex and goes to sleep. For all this hardship, his only happiness is a little sex. Yan maithunādi-gṛhamedhi-sukhaṁ hi tuccham. Ṛṣabhadeva clearly states that human life is not meant for this kind of existence, which is enjoyed even by dogs and hogs. Indeed, dogs and hogs do not have to work so hard for sex. A human being should try to live in a different way and should not try to imitate dogs and hogs. The alternative is mentioned. Human life is meant for tapasya, austerity and penance. By tapasya, one can get out of the material clutches. When one is situated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, devotional service, his happiness is guaranteed eternally. By taking to bhakti-yoga, devotional service, one's existence is purified. The living entity is seeking happiness life after life, but he can make a solution to all his problems simply by practicing bhakti-yoga. Then he immediately becomes eligible to return home, back to Godhead. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9):", + "janma karma ca me divyam

When this happens, one actually becomes wise and surrenders unto Him. That is the only way to stop the repetition of birth and death.

This is advocated by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī in his Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu: śrī-guru-pādāśrayaḥ. To be freed from the entanglement of the material world, one has to approach a spiritual master. Tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet. By questioning the spiritual master and by serving him, one can advance in spiritual life. When one engages in devotional service, naturally the attraction for personal comfort—for eating, sleeping and dressing—is reduced. By associating with the devotee, a spiritual standard is maintained. The word mad-deva-saṅgāt is very important. There are many so-called religions devoted to the worship of various demigods, but here good association means association with one who simply accepts Kṛṣṇa as his worshipable Deity.", + "Another important item is dvandva-titikṣā. As long as one is situated in the material world, there must be pleasure and pain arising from the material body. As Kṛṣṇa advises in Bhagavad-gītā, tāṁs titikṣasva bhārata. One has to learn how to tolerate the temporary pains and pleasures of this material world. One must also be detached from his family and practice celibacy. Sex with one's wife according to the scriptural injunctions is also accepted as brahmacarya (celibacy), but illicit sex is opposed to religious principles, and it hampers advancement in spiritual consciousness. Another important word is vijñāna-virājita. Everything should be done very scientifically and consciously. One should be a realized soul. In this way, one can give up the entanglement of material bondage.", + "As Śrī Madhvācārya points out, the sum and substance of these four ślokas is that one should refrain from acting out of a desire for sense gratification and should instead always engage in the Lord's loving service.

Generally we experience two energies—material energy and spiritual energy. We have some experience of the material energy (earth, water, air, fire, ether, mind, intelligence and ego) because in the material world everyone's body is composed of these elements. Within the material body is the spirit soul, but we cannot see it with the material eyes. When we see a body full of spiritual energy, it is very difficult for us to understand how the spiritual energy can have a body. It is said that Lord Ṛṣabhadeva's body is completely spiritual; therefore for a materialistic person, it is very difficult to understand. For a materialistic person, the completely spiritual body is inconceivable. We have to accept the version of the Vedas when our experimental perception cannot understand a subject. As stated in Brahma-saṁhitā: īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ. The Supreme Lord has a body with form, but that body is not composed of material elements. It is made of spiritual bliss, eternity and living force. By the inconceivable energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the Lord can appear before us in His original spiritual body, but because we have no experience of the spiritual body, we are sometimes bewildered and see the form of the Lord as material. The Māyāvādī philosophers are completely unable to conceive of a spiritual body. They say that the spirit is always impersonal, and whenever they see something personal, they take it for granted that it is material. In Bhagavad-gītā (9.11) it is said:", + "avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā
mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam
paraṁ bhāvam ajānanto
mama bhūta-maheśvaram", + "\"Fools deride Me when I descend in the human form. They do not know My transcendental nature and My supreme dominion over all that be.\"", + "Unintelligent people think that the Supreme Lord accepts a body composed of the material energy. We can easily understand the material body, but we cannot understand the spiritual body. Therefore Ṛṣabhadeva says: idaṁ śarīraṁ mama durvibhāvyam. In the spiritual world, everyone has a spiritual body. There is no conception of material existence there. In the spiritual world there is only service and the receiving of service. There is only sevya, sevā, and sevaka—the person served, the process of service and the servant. These three items are completely spiritual, and therefore the spiritual world is called absolute. There is no tinge of material contamination there. Being completely transcendental to the material conception, Lord Ṛṣabhadeva states that His heart is composed of dharma. Dharma is explained in Bhagavad-gītā (18.66): sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja. In the spiritual world, every living entity is surrendered to the Supreme Lord and is completely on the spiritual platform. Although there are servitors, the served and service, all are spiritual and variegated. At the present moment, due to our material conception, everything is durvibhāvya, inconceivable.

As soon as a demon rules the earth, everything becomes chaotic. At the present moment, the world is inclined toward the democratic process, but the people in general are all contaminated by the modes of passion and ignorance.

The president is selected by the votes of ignorant śūdras; therefore another śūdra is elected, and immediately the entire government becomes polluted.

In other words, matter also has the potency to manifest living entities in the form of vegetables. In this sense, life comes out of matter, but matter also comes out of life.

Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām. The conclusion is that everything, both material and spiritual, is generated from the Supreme Being. From the evolutionary point of view, perfection is reached when the living entity attains the platform of a brāhmaṇa. A brāhmaṇa is a worshiper of the Supreme Brahman, and the Supreme Brahman worships the brāhmaṇa. In other words, the devotee is subordinate to the Supreme Lord, and the Lord is inclined to see to the satisfaction of His devotee. A brāhmaṇa is called dvija-deva, and the Lord is called dvija-deva-deva. He is the Lord of brāhmaṇas.", + "The evolutionary process is also explained in Caitanya-caritāmṛta (Madhya, Chapter Nineteen), wherein it is said that there are two types of living entities—moving and nonmoving. Among moving entities, there are birds, beasts, aquatics, human beings and so on. Of these, the human beings are supposed to be the best, but they are few. Of these small numbers of human beings, there are many low-class human beings like mlecchas, Pulindas, bauddhas and śabaras. The human being elevated enough to accept the Vedic principles is superior. Among those who accept the Vedic principles generally known as varṇāśrama (presently known as the Hindu system), few actually follow these principles. Of those who actually follow the Vedic principles, most perform fruitive activity or pious activity for elevation to a high position. Manuṣyāṇāṁ sahasreṣu kaścid yatati siddhaye: out of many attached to fruitive activity, one may be a jñānī—that is, one philosophically inclined and superior to the karmīs.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu advises, sandarśanaṁ viṣayinām atha yoṣitāṁ ca hā hanta hanta visa-bhakṣaṇato 'py asādhu: material opulence and sense gratification through the association of women are more dangerous than poison. Brāhmaṇas who are pure Vaiṣṇavas always engage in the Lord's service and are devoid of any desire for material gain. The brāhmaṇas do not worship demigods like Lord Brahmā, Indra or Lord Śiva for any material comfort. They do not even ask the Supreme Lord for material profit; therefore it is concluded that the brāhmaṇas are the supreme living entities of this world. Śrī Kapiladeva also confirms this in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (3.29.33):", + "tasmān mayy arpitāśeṣa-
kriyārthātmā nirantaraḥ
mayy arpitātmanaḥ puṁso
mayi sannyasta-karmaṇaḥ

There is no better person than a brāhmaṇa who thus engages himself and dedicates himself to the Supreme Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/05/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/05/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5252d441 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/05/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,109 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 5.5.26", + "devanagari": "सर्वाणि मद्धिष्ण्यतया भवद्भिश्चराणि भूतानि सुता ध्रुवाणि\nसम्भावितव्यानि पदे पदे वो विविक्तदृग्भिस्तद् उ हार्हणं मे", + "transliteration": "sarvāṇi mad-dhiṣṇyatayā bhavadbhiś\ncarāṇi bhūtāni sutā dhruvāṇi\nsambhāvitavyāni pade pade vo\nvivikta-dṛgbhis tad u hārhaṇaṁ me", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sarvāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "all" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat-dhiṣṇyatayā", + "meanings": [ + "because of being My sitting place" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavadbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "carāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "that move" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtāni", + "meanings": [ + "living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sutāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "My dear sons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhruvāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "that do not move" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sambhāvitavyāni", + "meanings": [ + "to be respected" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pade pade", + "meanings": [ + "at every moment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vivikta-dṛgbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "possessing clear vision and understanding (that the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His Paramātmā feature is situated everywhere)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat u", + "meanings": [ + "that indirectly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ha", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arhaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "offering respect" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "unto Me." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear sons, you should not envy any living entity—be he moving or nonmoving.

The Lord is situated in this universe as Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu and Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. He is also situated within every atom. According to the Vedic statement: īśāvāsyam idaṁ sarvam. The Supreme Lord is situated everywhere, and wherever He is situated is His temple. We even offer respects to a temple from a distant place, and all living entities should similarly be offered respect. This is different from the theory of pantheism, which holds that everything is God. Everything has a relationship with God because God is situated everywhere. We should not make any particular distinction between the poor and the rich like the foolish worshipers of daridra-nārāyaṇa. Nārāyaṇa is present in the rich as well as the poor.

The pure devotee, however, is without desire. Anyābhilāṣitā-śūnya: a pure devotee is completely free from all kinds of material desire. Karmīs, on the other hand, are simply full of desires because they try to enjoy sense gratification. They are not peaceful in this life, nor the next, during the past, present or future. Similarly, jñānīs are always aspiring after liberation and trying to become one with the Supreme. Yogīs are aspiring after many siddhis (powers)—aṇimā, laghimā, prāpti, etc. However, a devotee is not at all interested in these things because he is fully dependent on the mercy of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is yogeśvara, the possessor of all mystic powers (siddhis), and He is ātmārāma, fully self-satisfied. The yoga-siddhis are described in this verse. One can fly in outer space without the aid of a machine, and he can travel at the speed of mind. This means that as soon as a yogī desires to go somewhere within this universe or even beyond this universe, he can do so immediately. One cannot estimate the speed of mind, for within a second the mind can go many millions of miles. Sometimes yogīs enter into the bodies of other people and act as they desire when their bodies are not working properly. When the body becomes old, a perfect yogī can find a young, able body. Giving up his old body, the yogī can enter into the young body and act as he pleases.

As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (6.22), yaṁ labdhvā cāparaṁ lābhaṁ manyate nādhikaṁ tataḥ: \"Gaining this, one thinks there is no greater gain.\" When one attains the service of the Lord, which is non-different from the Lord, one does not desire anything material. Mukti means relief from material existence. Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura says: muktiḥ mukulitāñjaliḥ sevate 'smān. For a devotee, mukti is not a very great achievement. Mukti means being situated in one's constitutional position. The constitutional position of every living being is that of the Lord's servant; therefore when a living entity is engaged in the Lord's loving service, he has already attained mukti. Consequently a devotee does not aspire for mukti, even if it is offered by the Supreme Lord Himself." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/06/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/06/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..990de7d2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/06/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,160 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 5.6.18", + "devanagari": "राजन्पतिर्गुरुर् अलं भवतां यदूनां दैवं प्रियः कुलपतिः क्व च किंकरो वः\nअस्त्व् एवम् अंग भगवान्भजतां मुकुन्दो मुक्तिं ददाति कर्हिचित्स्म न भक्तियोगम्", + "transliteration": "rājan patir gurur alaṁ bhavatāṁ yadūnāṁ\ndaivaṁ priyaḥ kula-patiḥ kva ca kiṅkaro vaḥ\nastv evam aṅga bhagavān bhajatāṁ mukundo\nmuktiṁ dadāti karhicit sma na bhakti-yogam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "rājan", + "meanings": [ + "O my dear King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "maintainer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guruḥ", + "meanings": [ + "spiritual master" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alam", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavatām", + "meanings": [ + "of you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadūnām", + "meanings": [ + "the Yadu dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daivam", + "meanings": [ + "the worshipable Deity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "priyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very dear friend" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kula-patiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the master of the dynasty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kva ca", + "meanings": [ + "sometimes even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kiṅkaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "servant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of you (the Pāṇḍavas)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "astu", + "meanings": [ + "to be sure" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅga", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajatām", + "meanings": [ + "of those devotees engaged in service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mukundaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muktim", + "meanings": [ + "liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadāti", + "meanings": [ + "delivers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karhicit", + "meanings": [ + "at any time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sma", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhakti-yogam", + "meanings": [ + "loving devotional service." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: My dear King, the Supreme Person, Mukunda, is actually the maintainer of all the members of the Pāṇḍava and Yadu dynasties.

Similarly, the family of Uttānapāda Mahārāja, the father of Mahārāja Dhruva, is also glorious due to King Pṛthu's taking birth in it. The dynasty of Mahārāja Raghu is glorified because Lord Rāmacandra appeared in that family. As far as the Yadu and Kuru dynasties are concerned, they existed simultaneously, but of the two, the Yadu dynasty was more glorious due to the appearance of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Mahārāja Parīkṣit might have been thinking that the Kuru dynasty was not as fortunate as the others because the Supreme Lord did not appear in that family, neither as Kṛṣṇa, Lord Rāmacandra, Lord Ṛṣabhadeva or Mahārāja Pṛthu. Therefore Parīkṣit Mahārāja was encouraged by Śukadeva Gosvāmī in this particular verse.", + "The Kuru dynasty may be considered more glorious due to the presence of devotees like the five Pāṇḍavas, who rendered unalloyed devotional service.

Although He took birth in the Yadu dynasty, Lord Kṛṣṇa was more affectionate to the Pāṇḍavas. By His actions, Lord Kṛṣṇa proved that He was more inclined to the Kuru dynasty than the Yadu dynasty. Indeed, Lord Kṛṣṇa, indebted to the Pāṇḍavas' devotional service, sometimes acted as their messenger, and He guided them through many dangerous situations. Therefore Mahārāja Parīkṣit should not have been saddened because Lord Kṛṣṇa did not appear in his family. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is always inclined toward His pure devotees, and by His action it is clear that liberation is not very important for the devotees. Lord Kṛṣṇa easily gives one liberation, but He does not so easily give one the facility to become a devotee. Muktiṁ dadāti karhicit sma na bhakti-yogam.

After all, sacrifices are executed to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Yajñārtha-karma: such activities should be carried out for the Supreme Lord's pleasure. In this age of Kali, the Supreme Lord in His incarnation of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu should be worshiped with His associates by performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña, the congregational chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. This process is accepted by intelligent men. Yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi sumedhasaḥ.

In other words, he performed all the yajñas for the satisfaction of Lord Vāsudeva, Kṛṣṇa. Mahārāja Bharata thought that since the demigods were different parts of Vāsudeva's body, He controls those who are explained in the Vedic mantras. By thinking in this way, Mahārāja Bharata was freed from all material contamination, such as attachment, lust and greed. When the priests were about to offer the sacrificial ingredients into the fire, Mahārāja Bharata expertly understood how the offering made to different demigods was simply an offering to the different limbs of the Lord. For instance, Indra is the arm of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and Sūrya [the sun] is His eye. Thus Mahārāja Bharata considered that the oblations offered to different demigods were actually offered unto the different limbs of Lord Vāsudeva.", + "purport": [ + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead says that as long as one does not develop the pure devotional service of śravaṇaṁ kīrtanam, hearing and chanting, one must carry out his prescribed duties. Since Bharata Mahārāja was a great devotee, one may ask why he performed so many sacrifices that are actually meant for karmīs. The fact is that he was simply following the orders of Vāsudeva. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā, sarva dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja: \"Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me.\" (Bg. 18.66) Whatever we do, we should constantly remember Vāsudeva. People are generally addicted to offering obeisances to various demigods, but Bharata Mahārāja simply wanted to please Lord Vāsudeva. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā: bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ sarva-loka-maheśvaram (Bg. 5.29). A yajña may be carried out to satisfy a particular demigod, but when the yajña is offered to the yajña-puruṣa, Nārāyaṇa, the demigods are satisfied. The purpose of performing different yajñas is to satisfy the Supreme Lord. One may perform them in the name of different demigods or directly. If we directly offer oblations to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the demigods are automatically satisfied. If we water the root of a tree, the branches, twigs, fruits and flowers are automatically satisfied. When one offers sacrifices to different demigods, one should remember that the demigods are simply parts of the body of the Supreme. If we worship the hand of a person, we intend to satisfy the person himself. If we massage a person's legs, we do not really serve the legs but the person who possesses the legs. All the demigods are different parts of the Lord, and if we offer service to them, we actually serve the Lord Himself. Demigod worship is mentioned in Brahma-saṁhitā, but actually the ślokas advocate worship of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Govinda. For instance, worship of the goddess Durgā is mentioned this way in Brahma-saṁhitā (5.44):", + "sṛṣṭi-sthiti-pralaya-sādhana-śaktir ekā
chāyeva yasya bhuvanāni vibharti durgā
icchānurūpam api yasya ca ceṣṭate sā
govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi", + "Following the orders of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the goddess Durgā creates, maintains and annihilates. Śrī Kṛṣṇa also confirms this statement in Bhagavad-gītā. Mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sa-carācaram: \"This material nature is working under My direction, O son of Kuntī, and it is producing all moving and unmoving beings.\" (Bg. 9.10)", + "We should worship the demigods in that spirit. Because the goddess Durgā satisfies Kṛṣṇa, we should therefore offer respects to goddess Durgā. Because Lord Śiva is nothing but Kṛṣṇa's functional body, we should therefore offer respects to Lord Śiva. Similarly, we should offer respects to Brahmā, Agni and Sūrya. There are many offerings to different demigods, and one should always remember that these offerings are usually meant to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Bharata Mahārāja did not aspire to receive some benediction from demigods. His aim was to please the Supreme Lord. In the Mahābhārata, among the thousand names of Viṣṇu, it is said yajña-bhug yajña-kṛd yajñaḥ. The enjoyer of yajña, the performer of yajña and yajña itself are the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord is the performer of everything, but out of ignorance the living entity thinks that he is the actor. As long as we think we are the actors, we bring about karma-bandha (bondage to activity). If we act for yajña, for Kṛṣṇa, there is no karma-bandha. Yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ: \"Work done as a sacrifice for Viṣṇu has to be performed, otherwise work binds one to this material world.\" (Bg. 3.9)", + "Following the instructions of Bharata Mahārāja, we should act not for our personal satisfaction but for the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In Bhagavad-gītā (17.28) it is also stated:", + "aśraddhayā hutaṁ dattaṁ
tapas taptaṁ kṛtaṁ ca yat
asad ity ucyate pārtha
na ca tat pretya no iha", + "Sacrifices, austerities and charities performed without faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead are nonpermanent. Regardless of whatever rituals are performed, they are called asat, nonpermanent. They are therefore useless both in this life and the next.", + "Kings like Mahārāja Ambarīṣa and many other rājarṣis who were pure devotees of the Lord simply passed their time in the service of the Supreme Lord. When a pure devotee executes some service through the agency of another person, he should not be criticized, for his activities are meant for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord. A devotee may have a priest perform some karma-kāṇḍa, and the priest may not be a pure Vaiṣṇava, but because the devotee wants to please the Supreme Lord, he should not be criticized. The word apūrva is very significant. The resultant actions of karma are called apūrva. When we act piously or impiously, immediate results do not ensue. We therefore wait for the results, which are called apūrva. The results are manifest in the future. Even the smārtas accept this apūrva. Pure devotees simply act for the pleasure of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; therefore the results of their activities are spiritual, or permanent. They are not like those of the karmīs, which are nonpermanent. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (4.23):", + "gata-saṅgasya muktasya

As far as the deer was concerned, Bharata Mahārāja became very sympathetic, but he forgot that it was impossible for him to elevate a deer to spiritual consciousness, because, after all, a deer is but an animal.

If it were not due to his past fruitive activity, how could he have been attracted to the deer after giving up the association of his own son and family, considering them stumbling blocks on the path of spiritual life? How could he show such uncontrollable affection for a deer? This was definitely due to his past karma. The King was so engrossed in petting and maintaining the deer that he fell down from his spiritual activities. In due course of time, insurmountable death, which is compared to a venomous snake that enters the hole created by a mouse, situated itself before him.", + "purport": [ + "As will be seen in later verses, Bharata Mahārāja, at the time of death, would be forced to accept the body of a deer due to his attraction for the deer. In this regard, a question may be raised. How can a devotee be affected by his past misconduct and vicious activities? In Brahma-saṁhitā (5.54) it is said, karmāṇi nirdahati kintu ca bhakti-bhājām: \"For those engaged in devotional service, bhakti-bhajana, the results of past deeds are indemnified.\" According to this, Bharata Mahārāja could not be punished for his past misdeeds. The conclusion must be that Mahārāja Bharata purposefully became over-addicted to the deer and neglected his spiritual advancement. To immediately rectify his mistake, for a short time he was awarded the body of a deer. This was just to increase his desire for mature devotional service. Although Bharata Mahārāja was awarded the body of an animal, he did not forget what had previously happened due to his purposeful mistake. He was very anxious to get out of his deer body, and this indicates that his affection for devotional service was intensified, so much so that he was quickly to attain perfection in a brāhmaṇa body in the next life. It is with this conviction that we declare in our Back to Godhead magazine that devotees like the gosvāmīs living in Vṛndāvana who purposely commit some sinful activity are born in the bodies of dogs, monkeys and tortoises in that holy land.

Due to his foolishness, he became attached to an insignificant deer and thus fell down and had to accept the body of a deer. This is significant for every devotee. If we misuse our position and think that we are fully engaged in devotional service and can do whatever we like, we have to suffer like Bharata Mahārāja and be condemned to accept the type of body that impairs our devotional service. Only the human form is able to execute devotional service, but if we voluntarily give this up for sense gratification, we certainly have to be punished. This punishment is not exactly like that endured by an ordinary materialistic person. By the grace of the Supreme Lord, a devotee is punished in such a way that his eagerness to attain the lotus feet of Lord Vāsudeva is increased. By his intense desire, he returns home in the next lifetime. Devotional service is very completely described here: tad-anuśravaṇa-manana-saṅkīrtanārādhanānusmaranābhiyogena. The constant hearing and chanting of the glories of the Lord is recommended in Bhagavad-gītā: satataṁ kīrtayanto māṁ yatantaś ca dṛḍha-vratāḥ. Those who have taken to Kṛṣṇa consciousness should be very careful that not a single moment is wasted and that not a single moment is spent without chanting and remembering the Supreme Personality of Godhead and His activities. By His own actions and by the actions of His devotees, Kṛṣṇa teaches us how to become cautious in devotional service. Through the medium of Bharata Mahārāja, Kṛṣṇa teaches us that we must be careful in the discharge of devotional service. If we want to keep our minds completely fixed without deviation, we must engage them in devotional service full time. As far as the members of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness are concerned, they have sacrificed everything to push on this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Yet they must take a lesson from the life of Bharata Mahārāja to be very cautious and to see that not a single moment is wasted in frivolous talk, sleep or voracious eating. Eating is not prohibited, but if we eat voraciously we shall certainly sleep more than required. Sense gratification ensues, and we may be degraded to a lower life form. In that way our spiritual progress may be checked at least for the time being. The best course is to take the advice of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī: avyartha-kālatvam. We should see that every moment of our lives is utilized for the rendering of devotional service and nothing else.

The tamasic śāstras give instructions for the sacrifice of an animal like a goat or buffalo before the goddess Kālī, but there is no mention of killing a man, however dull he may be. This process was manufactured by the dacoits themselves; therefore the word sva-vidhinā is used. Even at this time there are many sacrifices being conducted without reference to the Vedic scriptures. For instance, in Calcutta recently a slaughterhouse was being advertised as a temple of the goddess Kālī. Meat-eaters foolishly purchase meat from such shops, thinking it different from ordinary meat and taking it to be the prasāda of goddess Kālī. The sacrifice of a goat or a similar animal before the goddess Kālī is mentioned in śāstras just to keep people from eating slaughterhouse meat and becoming responsible for the killing of animals.

Due to their envy, these dacoits brought him before the goddess Kālī for sacrifice. Such people are always addicted to envious activities, and therefore they dared to try to kill Jaḍa Bharata.

He was born of a good brāhmaṇa father, and killing him was forbidden, even though he might have been an enemy or aggressive person. In any case, there was no reason to kill Jaḍa Bharata, and the goddess Kālī could not bear this. She could immediately understand that these sinful dacoits were about to kill a great devotee of the Lord.

If a person comes with an intent to kill, one can immediately take action and kill in self-defense. It is also stated that one can be killed if he comes to set fire to the home or to pollute or kidnap one's wife. Lord Rāmacandra killed the entire family of Rāvaṇa because Rāvaṇa kidnapped His wife, Sītādevī. However, killing is not sanctioned in the śāstras for other purposes. The killing of animals in sacrifice to the demigods, who are expansions of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is sanctioned for those who eat meat. This is a kind of restriction for meat-eating. In other words, the slaughter of animals is also restricted by certain rules and regulations in the Vedas. Considering these points, there was no reason to kill Jaḍa Bharata, who was born in a respectable, highly exalted brāhmaṇa family. He was a God-realized soul and a well-wisher to all living entities. The Vedas did not at all sanction the killing of Jaḍa Bharata by rogues and thieves. Consequently the goddess Bhadra Kālī emerged from the deity to give protection to the Lord's devotee. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura explains that due to the Brahman effulgence of such a devotee as Jaḍa Bharata, the deity was fractured. Only thieves and rogues in the modes of passion and ignorance and maddened by material opulence offer a man in sacrifice before the goddess Kālī. This is not sanctioned by the Vedic instructions. Presently there are many hundreds and thousands of slaughterhouses throughout the world that are maintained by a puffed-up population mad for material opulence.

Devotees are always fully dependent on the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and the Lord is always eager to give them all protection in all circumstances." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/10/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/10/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7c870697 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/10/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,205 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 5.10.1", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच अथ सिन्धुसौवीरपते रहूगणस्य व्रजत इक्षुमत्यास्तटे तत्\nकुलपतिना शिबिकावाहपुरुषान्वेषणसमये दैवेनोपसादितः स \nद्विजवर उपलब्ध एष पीवा युवा संहननांगो गोखरवद् \nधुरं वोढुम् अलम् इति पूर्वविष्टिगृहीतैः सह गृहीतः प्रसभम् \nअतदर्ह उवाह शिबिकां स महानुभावः.", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\natha sindhu-sauvīra-pate rahūgaṇasya vrajata ikṣumatyās taṭe tat-\nkula-patinā śibikā-vāha-puruṣānveṣaṇa-samaye daivenopasāditaḥ sa \ndvija-vara upalabdha eṣa pīvā yuvā saṁhananāṅgo go-kharavad \ndhuraṁ voḍhum alam iti pūrva-viṣṭi-gṛhītaiḥ saha gṛhītaḥ prasabham \natad-arha uvāha śibikāṁ sa mahānubhāvaḥ.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued to speak" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sindhu-sauvīra-pateḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the ruler of the states known as Sindhu and Sauvīra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rahū-gaṇasya", + "meanings": [ + "the King known as Rahūgaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vrajataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "while going (to the āśrama of Kapila)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ikṣu-matyāḥ taṭe", + "meanings": [ + "on the bank of the river known as Ikṣumatī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-kula-patinā", + "meanings": [ + "by the leader of the palanquin carriers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śibikā-vāha", + "meanings": [ + "to become a carrier of the palanquin" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣa-anveṣaṇa-samaye", + "meanings": [ + "at the time of searching for a man" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daivena", + "meanings": [ + "by chance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upasāditaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "led near" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvija-varaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Jaḍa Bharata, the son of a brāhmaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upalabdhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "obtained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this man" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pīvā", + "meanings": [ + "very strong and stout" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yuvā", + "meanings": [ + "young" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁhanana-aṅgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "having very firm limbs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "go-khara-vat", + "meanings": [ + "like a cow or an ass" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhuram", + "meanings": [ + "a load" + ] + }, + { + "word": "voḍhum", + "meanings": [ + "to carry" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alam", + "meanings": [ + "able" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus thinking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūrva-viṣṭi-gṛhītaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "others who were formerly forced to do the task" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saha", + "meanings": [ + "with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhītaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being taken" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prasabham", + "meanings": [ + "by force" + ] + }, + { + "word": "a-tat-arhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "although not fit for carrying the palanquin" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāha", + "meanings": [ + "carried" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śibikām", + "meanings": [ + "the palanquin" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-anubhāvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a great soul." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: My dear King, after this, King Rahūgaṇa, ruler of the states known as Sindhu and Sauvīra, was going to Kapilāśrama.

There were many ants on the path, but Jaḍa Bharata took care by looking ahead three feet. When the ants were no longer in his way, he would place his foot on the ground. A Vaiṣṇava is always very kind at heart to all living entities. In His sāṅkhya-yoga, Lord Kapiladeva explains: suhṛdaḥ sarva-dehinām. Living entities assume different bodily forms. Those who are not Vaiṣṇavas consider only human society worthy of their sympathy, but Kṛṣṇa claims to be the supreme father of all life forms. Consequently the Vaiṣṇava takes care not to annihilate untimely or unnecessarily any life form. All living entities have to fulfill a certain duration for being encaged in a particular type of material body. They have to finish the duration allotted a particular body before being promoted or evolved to another body. Killing an animal or any other living being simply places an impediment in the way of his completing his term of imprisonment in a certain body. One should therefore not kill bodies for one's sense gratification, for this will implicate one in sinful activity." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/10/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/10/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..922d731a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/10/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 5.10.3", + "devanagari": "अथ त ईश्वरवचः सोपालम्भम् उपाकर्ण्योपायतुरीयाच्छंकित\nमनसस्तं विज्ञापयां बभूवुः.", + "transliteration": "atha ta īśvara-vacaḥ sopālambham upākarṇyopāya-turīyāc chaṅkita-\nmanasas taṁ vijñāpayāṁ babhūvuḥ.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "they (the carriers of the palanquin)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvara-vacaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the words of the master, King Rahūgaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-upālambham", + "meanings": [ + "with reproach" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upākarṇya", + "meanings": [ + "hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upāya", + "meanings": [ + "the means" + ] + }, + { + "word": "turīyāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the fourth one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaṅkita-manasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose minds were afraid" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "him (the King)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vijñāpayām babhūvuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "informed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When the palanquin carriers heard the threatening words of Mahārāja Rahūgaṇa, they became very afraid of his punishment and began to speak to him as follows.", + "purport": [ + "According to political science, a king sometimes tries to pacify his subordinates, sometimes chastises them, sometimes derides them and sometimes rewards them.

Actually every living being is an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, but due to forgetfulness, a living entity engages himself as an eternal servant of māyā. As long as one is engaged in māyā's service, he cannot be happy. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement aims at engaging people in Lord Kṛṣṇa's service. That will help them become freed from all material contamination and sinful activity. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (4.10): vīta-rāga-bhaya-krodhāḥ. By becoming detached from material activities, we will be freed from fear and anger. By austerity, one becomes purified and eligible to return home, back to Godhead. The duty of the king is to rule his citizens in such a way that they can become Kṛṣṇa conscious. This would be very beneficial for everyone. Unfortunately the king or president engages people in sense gratification instead of the Lord's service, and such activities are certainly not beneficial for anyone. King Rahūgaṇa tried to engage Jaḍa Bharata in carrying the palanquin, which is a form of sense gratification for the King. However, if one is engaged as a palanquin carrier in the Lord's service, that is certainly beneficial.

By becoming pious, one may be promoted to the higher planetary systems (ūrdhvaṁ gacchanti sattva-sthāḥ). Some of the followers of the Vedas are attached to karma-kāṇḍa, the fruitive activities of the Vedas, in order to be promoted to a higher standard of life. Others argue that this is not the purpose of the Vedas. Tad yathaiveha karma jitaḥ lokaḥ kṣīyate evam evam utra puṇya jitaḥ lokaḥ kṣīyate. In this world someone may become very highly elevated by taking birth in an aristocratic family, by being well educated, beautiful or very rich. These are the gifts for pious activities enacted in the past life. However, these will be finished when the stock of pious activity is finished. If we become attached to pious activities, we may get these various worldly facilities in the next life and may take birth in the heavenly planets. But all this will eventually be finished. Kṣīṇe puṇye martya-lokaṁ viśanti (Bg. 9.21): when the stock of pious activity is finished, one again has to come to this martya-loka. According to the Vedic injunctions, the performance of pious activity is not really the objective of the Vedas. The objective of the Vedas is explained in Bhagavad-gītā. Vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ: the objective of the Vedas is to understand Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Those who are veda-vādīs are not actually advanced in knowledge, and those who are followers of jñāna-kāṇḍa (Brahman understanding) are also not perfect. However, when one comes to the platform of upāsanā and accepts the worship of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he becomes perfect (ārādhanānāṁ sarveṣāṁ viṣṇor ārādhanaṁ param). In the Vedas the worship of different demigods and the performance of sacrifice are certainly, mentioned, but such worship is inferior because the worshipers do not know that the ultimate goal is Viṣṇu (na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ hi viṣṇum). When one comes to the platform of viṣṇor ārādhanam, or bhakti-yoga, one has attained the perfection of life. Otherwise, as indicated in Bhagavad-gītā, one is not a tattva-vādī but a veda-vādī, a blind follower of the Vedic injunctions. A veda-vādī cannot be purified from material contamination unless he becomes a tattva-vādī, that is, one who knows tattva, the Absolute Truth. Tattva is also experienced in three features—brahmeti paramātmeti bhagavān iti śabdyate.

Of course in the material world the mode of goodness is accepted as the best, and one can be promoted to the higher planetary systems by being on the sattva-guṇa platform. However, that is not perfection. One must come to the conclusion that even the sattva-guṇa platform is also not good. One may dream that he has become a king with a good family, wife and children, but immediately at the end of that dream he comes to the conclusion that it is false. Similarly, all kinds of material happiness are undesirable for a person who wants spiritual salvation. If a person does not come to the conclusion that he has nothing to do with any kind of material happiness, he cannot come to the platform of understanding the Absolute Truth, or tattva jñāna. Karmīs, jñānīs and yogīs are after some material elevation. The karmīs work hard day and night for some bodily comfort, and the jñānīs simply speculate about how to get out of the entanglement of karma and merge into the Brahman effulgence. The yogīs are very much addicted to the acquisition of material perfection and magical powers. All of them are trying to be materially perfect, but a devotee very easily comes to the platform of nirguṇa in devotional service, and consequently for the devotee the results of karma, jñāna and yoga become very insignificant. Therefore only the devotee is on the platform of tattva jñāna, not the others. Of course the jñānī's position is better than that of the karmī but that position is also insufficient. The jñānī must actually become liberated, and after liberation he may be situated in devotional service (mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām)." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/11/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/11/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..0b4f377c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/11/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 5.11.4", + "devanagari": "यावन्मनो रजसा पूरुषस्य सत्त्वेन वा तमसा वानुरुद्धम्\nचेतोभिर् आकूतिभिर् आतनोति निरंकुशं कुशलं चेतरं वा", + "transliteration": "yāvan mano rajasā pūruṣasya\nsattvena vā tamasā vānuruddham\ncetobhir ākūtibhir ātanoti\nniraṅkuśaṁ kuśalaṁ cetaraṁ vā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yāvat", + "meanings": [ + "as long as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rajasā", + "meanings": [ + "by the mode of passion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūruṣasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the living entity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sattvena", + "meanings": [ + "by the mode of goodness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamasā", + "meanings": [ + "by the mode of darkness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuruddham", + "meanings": [ + "controlled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cetobhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the knowledge-acquiring senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ākūtibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the senses of action" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātanoti", + "meanings": [ + "expands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niraṅkuśam", + "meanings": [ + "independent like an elephant not controlled by a trident" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuśalam", + "meanings": [ + "auspiciousness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "itaram", + "meanings": [ + "other than auspiciousness, sinful activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As long as the mind of the living entity is contaminated by the three modes of material nature (goodness, passion and ignorance), his mind is exactly like an independent, uncontrolled elephant.

The ordinary living being knows about his body to some extent, but the Supreme, Paramātmā, knows the condition of all bodies. The individual living being is localized, and the Supreme, Paramātmā, is all-pervading. In this śloka the word kṣetrajña refers to an ordinary living being, not the supreme living being. This ordinary living being is of two kinds—nitya-baddha or nitya-mukta. One is eternally conditioned and the other eternally liberated. The eternally liberated living beings are in the Vaikuṇṭha jagat, the spiritual world, and they never fall into the material world. Those in the material world are conditioned souls, nitya-baddha. The nitya-baddhas can become liberated by controlling the mind because the cause of conditioned life is the mind. When the mind is trained and the soul is not under the mind's control, the soul can be liberated even in this material world. When it is liberated, one is called jīvan-mukta. A jīvan-mukta knows how he has become conditioned; therefore he tries to purify himself and return home, back to Godhead. The eternally conditioned soul is eternally conditioned because he is controlled by the mind. The conditioned state and liberated state are compared to the sleeping, unconscious state and the awakened state. Those who are sleeping and unconscious are eternally conditioned, but those who are awake understand that they are eternally part and parcel of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa. Therefore even in this material world, they engage in Kṛṣṇa's service. As confirmed by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī: īhā yasya harer dāsye. If one takes to Kṛṣṇa's service, he is liberated, even though he appears to be a conditioned soul within the material world. Jīvan-muktaḥ sa ucyate.

The body of the King is simply another transformation of earth, but within that body Your Lordship is situated and falsely thinking that you are the King of the state of Sauvīra.", + "purport": [ + "After analyzing the material bodies of the palanquin carrier and the palanquin passenger, Jaḍa Bharata concludes that the real living force is the living entity. The living entity is the offshoot or offspring of Lord Viṣṇu; therefore within this material world, among moving and nonmoving things, the real principle is Lord Viṣṇu. Due to His presence, everything is working, and there are actions and reactions. One who understands Lord Viṣṇu as the original cause of everything is to be understood to be perfectly situated in knowledge. Although he was falsely proud of being a king, King Rahūgaṇa was not really situated in knowledge. Therefore he was rebuking the palanquin carriers, including the self-realized brāhmaṇa, Jaḍa Bharata. This is the first accusation Jaḍa Bharata made against the King, who was daring to talk to a learned brāhmaṇa from the flimsy ground of ignorance, identifying everything with matter. King Rahūgaṇa argued that the living entity is within the body and that when the body is fatigued the living entity within must therefore be suffering. It is clearly explained in the following verses that the living entity does not suffer due to the body's fatigue. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī gives an example of a child heavily decorated with ornaments; although the child's body is very delicate, he does not feel fatigue, nor do the parents think that his ornaments should be taken away. The living entity has nothing to do with bodily pains and pleasures. These are simply mental concoctions. An intelligent man will find the original cause of everything. Material combinations and permutations may be a matter of fact in worldly dealings, but actually the living force, the soul, has nothing to do with them. Those who are materially upset take care of the body and manufacture daridra-nārāyaṇa (poor Nārāyaṇa). However, it is not a fact that the soul or Supersoul becomes poor simply because the body is poor. These are the statements of ignorant people. The soul and Supersoul are always apart from bodily pleasure and pain." + ], + "verse_end": 6 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/12/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/12/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2a28e99d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/12/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,95 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 5.12.7", + "devanagari": "शोच्यान् इमांस्त्वम् अधिकष्टदीनान्विष्ट्या निगृह्णन्निरनुग्रहो ऽसि\nजनस्य गोप्तास्मि विकत्थमानो न शोभसे वृद्धसभासु धृष्टः", + "transliteration": "śocyān imāṁs tvam adhikaṣṭa-dīnān\nviṣṭyā nigṛhṇan niranugraho 'si\njanasya goptāsmi vikatthamāno\nna śobhase vṛddha-sabhāsu dhṛṣṭaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śocyān", + "meanings": [ + "lamentable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "imān", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhi-kaṣṭa-dīnān", + "meanings": [ + "poor persons suffering more pains because of their poverty-stricken position" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣṭyā", + "meanings": [ + "by force" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nigṛhṇan", + "meanings": [ + "seizing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niranugrahaḥ asi", + "meanings": [ + "you have no mercy in your heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the people in general" + ] + }, + { + "word": "goptā asmi", + "meanings": [ + "I am the protector (king)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikatthamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "bragging" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na śobhase", + "meanings": [ + "you do not look very good" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛddha-sabhāsu", + "meanings": [ + "in the society of learned persons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhṛṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "simply impudent." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "It is a fact, however, that these innocent people carrying your palanquin without payment are certainly suffering due to this injustice.

According to the Vedic principles, the king should be advised by learned sages, brāhmaṇas and scholars, who advise him according to the injunctions given in the dharma-śāstra.

As Kali-yuga advances, we can see that these characteristics are already visible. We can certainly imagine how deteriorated human civilization will be by the end of Kali-yuga. Indeed, there will no longer be a sane man capable of understanding God and our relationship with Him. In other words, human beings will be just like animals.

Therefore if the governmental head is not aware of life's goal, he should not take charge of ruling the people. Actually the supreme proprietor of everything is Lord Viṣṇu.

This cosmic manifestation is a mixture of matter and spirit, but the cause is the Supreme Brahman, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.5.20) it is said: idaṁ hi viśvaṁ bhagavān ivetaraḥ. The entire cosmic manifestation is but a transformation of the energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but because of illusion, no one can appreciate that God is nondifferent from the material world. Actually He is not different, but this material world is simply a transformation of His different energies; parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate. There are also other versions of this in the Vedas: sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma. Matter and spirit are all nondifferent from the Supreme Brahman, Bhagavān. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa confirms this statement in the Bhagavad-gītā (7.4): me bhinnā prakṛtir aṣṭadhā. The material energy is Kṛṣṇa's energy, but it is separated from Him. The spiritual energy is also His energy, but it is not separated from Him. When the material energy is engaged in the service of the Supreme Spirit, so-called material energy is also transformed into spiritual energy, just as an iron rod becomes fire when placed in contact with fire. When we can understand by an analytical study that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the cause of all causes, our knowledge is perfect. Simply understanding the transformations of different energies is partial knowledge. We must come to the ultimate cause. Na te viduḥ svārtha gatiṁ hi viṣṇum. The knowledge of those who are not interested in knowing the original cause of all emanations is never perfect knowledge. There is nothing in the phenomenal world that is not produced by the supreme energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Aromas from the earth are different scents manufactured and used for different purposes, but the original cause is the earth, nothing else. A waterpot made of earth can be used to carry water for some time, but ultimately the pot is nothing but earth. Therefore there is no difference between the pot and its original ingredient, earth. It is simply a different transformation of the energy. Originally the cause or primary ingredient is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and the varieties are only by-products. In the Chāndogya Upaniṣad it is stated: yathā saumy ekena mṛt-piṇḍena sarvaṁ mṛnmayaṁ vijñātaṁ syād vācārambhaṇaṁ vikāro nāmadheyaṁ mṛttikety eva satyam. If one studies the earth, he naturally understands the by-products of the earth. The Vedas therefore enjoin, yasmin vijñāte sarvam evaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavati: if one simply understands the original cause, Kṛṣṇa, the cause of all causes, then naturally everything else is understood, although it may be presented in different varieties. By understanding the original cause of different varieties, one can understand everything. If we understand Kṛṣṇa, the original cause of everything, we do not need to separately study the subsidiary varieties. Therefore from the very beginning it is said: satyaṁ paraṁ dhīmahi. One has to concentrate one's understanding on the Supreme Truth, Kṛṣṇa or Vāsudeva. The word Vāsudeva indicates the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the cause of all causes. Mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ. This is a summary of phenomenal and noumenal philosophy. The phenomenal world depends on the noumenal existence; similarly, everything exists by virtue of the potency of the Supreme Lord, although due to our ignorance the Supreme Lord is not perceived in everything." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/12/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/12/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..af82fedd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/12/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,113 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 5.12.9", + "devanagari": "एवं निरुक्तं क्षितिशब्दवृत्तम् असन्निधानात्परमाणवो ये\nअविद्यया मनसा कल्पितास्ते येषां समूहेन कृतो विशेषः", + "transliteration": "evaṁ niruktaṁ kṣiti-śabda-vṛttam\nasan nidhānāt paramāṇavo ye\navidyayā manasā kalpitās te\nyeṣāṁ samūhena kṛto viśeṣaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niruktam", + "meanings": [ + "falsely described" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣiti-śabda", + "meanings": [ + "of the word \"earth\"" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛttam", + "meanings": [ + "the existence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asat", + "meanings": [ + "not real" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nidhānāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the dissolution" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parama-aṇavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "atomic particles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "all of which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avidyayā", + "meanings": [ + "because of less intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manasā", + "meanings": [ + "in the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalpitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "imagined" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "they" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yeṣām", + "meanings": [ + "of which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samūhena", + "meanings": [ + "by the aggregate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "made" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśeṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the particulars." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "One may say that varieties arise from the planet earth itself.

Great learned scholars and philosophers accept this after many, many births. Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ (Bg. 7.19). The wise man can understand that ultimately Vāsudeva, Kṛṣṇa, is the cause of Brahman, and Paramātmā, the Supersoul. Thus Vāsudeva is sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam, the cause of all causes. This is confirmed in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. The real tattva, Absolute Truth, is Bhagavān, but due to incomplete realization of the Absolute Truth, people sometimes describe the same Viṣṇu as impersonal Brahman or localized Paramātmā.", + "vadanti tat tattva-vidas
tattvaṁ yaj jñānam advayam
brahmeti paramātmeti
bhagavān iti śabdyate
(Bhāg. 1.2.11)", + "From the very beginning, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam says, satyaṁ paraṁ dhīmahi: we meditate on the supreme truth. The supreme truth is explained here as jñānaṁ viśuddhaṁ satyam. The Absolute Truth is devoid of material contamination and is transcendental to the material qualities. It gives all spiritual success and liberation from this material world. That Supreme Absolute Truth is Kṛṣṇa, Vāsudeva. There is no difference between Kṛṣṇa's inner self and outward body. Kṛṣṇa is pūrṇa, the complete whole. There is no distinction between His body and soul as there is between ours. Sometimes so-called scholars, not knowing the constitutional position of Kṛṣṇa, mislead people by saying that the Kṛṣṇa within is different from the Kṛṣṇa without. When Kṛṣṇa says, man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru, so-called scholars advise the reader that it is not the person Kṛṣṇa to whom we must surrender but the Kṛṣṇa within. So-called scholars, Māyāvādīs, cannot understand Kṛṣṇa with their poor fund of knowledge. One should therefore approach an authorized person to understand Kṛṣṇa. The spiritual master has actually seen Kṛṣṇa; therefore he can explain Him properly.", + "tad viddhi praṇipātena

Sometimes in the forest a very big castle appears, and this is called a castle in the air. Actually this castle does not exist anywhere but in one's imagination. This is called gandharva-pura. In the material forest, the conditioned soul sometimes contemplates great castles and skyscrapers, and he wastes his energy for such things, hoping to live in them very peacefully with his family forever. However, the laws of nature do not allow this. When he enters such castles, he temporarily thinks that he is very happy, even though his happiness is impermanent. His happiness may last for a few years, but because the owner of the castle has to leave the castle at the time of death, everything is eventually lost. This is the way of worldly transactions. Such happiness is described by Vidyāpati as the happiness one derives upon seeing a drop of water in the desert. The desert is heated by scorching sunshine, and if we want to reduce the desert temperature, we need huge amounts of water—millions and millions of gallons. What effect will one drop have? Water certainly has value, but one drop of water cannot reduce the heat of the desert. In this material world everyone is ambitious, but the heat is very scorching. What will an imaginary castle in the air do to help? Śrīla Vidyāpati has therefore sung: tāṭala saikate, vāri-bindu-sama, suta-mita-ramaṇi-samāje. The happiness of family life, friends and society is compared to a drop of water in the scorching desert. The entire material world is busy trying to attain happiness because happiness is the prerogative of the living being. Unfortunately, due to falling in contact with the material world, the living entity simply struggles for existence.

As stated in the previous verse, the happiness derived from society, friendship and love is like a drop of water in the scorching heat of the desert. One may want to become very great and powerful in society, but this is like attempting to climb a hill full of thorns. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura compares one's family to high mountains. Becoming happy in their association is like a hungry man's endeavoring to climb a mountain full of thorns. Almost 99.9 percent of the population is unhappy in family life, despite all the attempts being made to satisfy the family members. In the Western countries, due to the dissatisfaction of the family members, there is actually no family life. There are many cases of divorce, and out of dissatisfaction, the children leave the protection of their parents. Especially in this age of Kali, family life is being reduced. Everyone is becoming self-centered because that is the law of nature. Even if one has sufficient money to maintain a family, the situation is such that no one is happy in family life. Consequently according to the varṇāśrama institution, one has to retire from family life in middle age: pañcāśordhvaṁ vanaṁ vrajet. One should voluntarily retire from family life at the age of fifty and go to Vṛndāvana or a forest. This is recommended by Śrīla Prahlāda Mahārāja (Bhāg. 7.5.5):", + "tat sādhu manye 'sura-varya dehināṁ
sadā samudvigna-dhiyām asad-grahāt
hitvātma-pātaṁ gṛham andha-kūpaṁ
vanaṁ gato yad dharim āśrayeta", + "There is no benefit in transferring from one forest to another. One must go to the Vṛndāvana forest and take shelter of Govinda. That will make one happy. The International Society for Krishna Consciousness is therefore constructing a Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma temple to invite its members as well as outsiders to come and live peacefully in a spiritual atmosphere. That will help one become elevated to the transcendental world and return home, back to Godhead. Another sentence in this verse is very significant: kauṭumbikaḥ krudhyati vai janāya. When one's mind is disturbed in so many ways, he satisfies himself by becoming angry with his poor wife and children. The wife and children are naturally dependent on the father, but the father, being unable to maintain the family properly, becomes mentally distressed and therefore chastises the family members unnecessarily. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (12.2.9): ācchinna-dāra-draviṇā yāsyanti giri-kānanam. Being disgusted with family life, one separates from the family by divorce or some other means. If one has to separate, why not separate willingly? Systematic separation is better than forced separation. Forced separation cannot make anyone happy, but by mutual consent or by the Vedic arrangement one must separate from his family affairs at a certain age and fully depend on Kṛṣṇa. This makes one's life successful." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/13/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/13/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..fb78bca6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/13/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,125 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 5.13.9", + "devanagari": "क्वचिन्निगीर्णो ऽजगराहिना जनो नावैति किंचिद्विपिने ऽपविद्धः\nदष्टः स्म शेते क्व च दन्दशूकैर् अन्धो ऽन्धकूपे पतितस्तमिस्रे", + "transliteration": "kvacin nigīrṇo 'jagarāhinā jano\nnāvaiti kiñcid vipine 'paviddhaḥ\ndaṣṭaḥ sma śete kva ca danda-śūkair\nandho 'ndha-kūpe patitas tamisre", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kvacit", + "meanings": [ + "sometimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nigīrṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being swallowed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajagara-ahinā", + "meanings": [ + "by the great snake known as the python" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the conditioned soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avaiti", + "meanings": [ + "understands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kiñcit", + "meanings": [ + "anything" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vipine", + "meanings": [ + "in the forest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apaviddhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pierced by arrows of suffering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being bitten" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sma", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śete", + "meanings": [ + "lies down" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kva ca", + "meanings": [ + "sometimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "danda-śūkaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by other kinds of snakes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "andhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "blind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "andha-kūpe", + "meanings": [ + "in a blind well" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fallen" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamisre", + "meanings": [ + "in a hellish condition of life." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The conditioned soul in the material forest is sometimes swallowed by a python or crushed.

In Bhagavad-gītā (2.69) it is also said, yā niśā sarva-bhūtānāṁ tasyāṁ jāgarti saṁyamī: \"What is night for all beings is the time of awakening for the self-controlled.\" Even in the higher planets, everyone is under the spell of the illusory energy. No one is really interested in the real values of life. The sleeping condition, called kāla-sarpa (the time factor), keeps the conditioned soul in a state of ignorance, and therefore pure consciousness is lost.

direct meaning of the material forest, Śukadeva Gosvāmī replied as follows: My dear King, a man belonging to the mercantile community [vaṇik] is always interested in earning money. Sometimes he enters the forest to acquire some cheap commodities like wood and earth and sell them in the city at good prices. Similarly, the conditioned soul, being greedy, enters this material world for some material profit. Gradually he enters the deepest part of the forest, not really knowing how to get out. Having entered the material world, the pure soul becomes conditioned by the material atmosphere, which is created by the external energy under the control of Lord Viṣṇu. Thus the living entity comes under the control of the external energy, daivī māyā. Living independently and bewildered in the forest, he does not attain the association of devotees who are always engaged in the service of the Lord. Once in the bodily conception, he gets different types of bodies one after the other under the influence of material energy and impelled by the modes of material nature [sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa]. In this way the conditioned soul goes sometimes to the heavenly planets, sometimes to the earthly planets and sometimes to the lower planets and lower species. Thus he suffers continuously due to different types of bodies. These sufferings and pains are sometimes mixed. Sometimes they are very severe, and sometimes they are not. These bodily conditions are acquired due to the conditioned soul's mental speculation. He uses his mind and five senses to acquire knowledge, and these bring about the different bodies and different conditions. Using the senses under the control of the external energy, māyā, the living entity suffers the miserable conditions of material existence. He is actually searching for relief, but he is generally baffled, although sometimes he is relieved after great difficulty. Struggling for existence in this way, he cannot get the shelter of pure devotees, who are like bumblebees engaged in loving service at the lotus feet of Lord Viṣṇu.", + "purport": [ + "The most important information in this verse is hari-guru-caraṇa-aravinda-madhukara-anupadavīm. In this material world the conditioned souls are baffled by their activities, and sometimes they are relieved after great difficulty. On the whole the conditioned soul is never happy. He simply struggles for existence. Actually his only business is to accept the spiritual master, the guru, and through him he must accept the lotus feet of the Lord. This is explained by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu: guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde pāya bhakti-latā-bīja. People struggling for existence in the forests or cities of the material world are not actually enjoying life. They are simply suffering different pains and pleasures, generally pains that are always inauspicious. They try to gain release from these pains, but they cannot due to ignorance. For them it is stated in the Vedas: tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet. When the living entity is lost in the forest of the material world, in the struggle for existence, his first business is to find a bona fide guru who is always engaged at the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu. After all, if he is at all eager to be relieved of the struggle for existence, he must find a bona fide guru and take instructions at his lotus feet. In this way he can get out of the struggle.", + "Since the material world is compared herein to a forest, it may be argued that in Kali-yuga modern civilization is mainly situated in the cities. A great city, however, is like a great forest. Actually city life is more dangerous than life in the forest. If one enters an unknown city without friend or shelter, living in that city is more difficult than living in a forest. There are many big cities all over the surface of the globe, and wherever one looks he sees the struggle for existence going on twenty-four hours a day. People rush about in cars going seventy and eighty miles an hour, constantly coming and going, and this sets the scene of the great struggle for existence. One has to rise early in the morning and travel in that car at breakneck speed. There is always the danger of an accident, and one has to take great care. In his automobile, the living entity is full of anxieties, and his struggle is not at all auspicious. Apart from human beings, other species like cats and dogs are also struggling very hard day and night for existence. Thus the struggle for existence continues, and the conditioned soul changes from one position to another. For a while, he is a child, but he has to become a boy. From a boy, he has to change into a youth, and from youth to manhood and old age. Finally, when the body is no longer workable, he has to accept a new body in a different species. Giving up the body is called death, and accepting another body is called birth. The human form is an opportunity to take shelter of the bona fide spiritual master and, through him, the Supreme Lord. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has been started to give an opportunity to all the members of human society, who are misled by foolish leaders. No one can get out of this struggle for existence, which is full of miseries, without accepting a pure devotee of the Lord. The material attempt changes from one position to another, and no one actually gains relief from the struggle for existence. The only resort is the lotus feet of a bona fide spiritual master, and, through him, the lotus feet of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/14/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/14/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..adeb16f0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/14/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,267 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 5.14.2", + "devanagari": "यस्याम् उ ह वा एते षडिन्द्रियनामानः कर्मणा दस्यव एव ते. तद् \nयथा पुरुषस्य धनं यत्किंचिद्धर्मौपयिकं बहु\nकृच्छ्राधिगतं साक्षात्परमपुरुषाराधनलक्षणो यो ऽसौ \nधर्मस्तं तु साम्पराय उदाहरन्ति. तद्धर्म्यं धनं दर्शनस्पर्शनश्रवणास्वादनावघ्राणसंकल्पव्यवसाय\nगृहग्राम्योपभोगेन कुनाथस्याजितात्मनो यथा सार्थस्य विलुम्\nपन्ति.", + "transliteration": "yasyām u ha vā ete ṣaḍ-indriya-nāmānaḥ karmaṇā dasyava eva te. tad \nyathā puruṣasya dhanaṁ yat kiñcid dharmaupayikaṁ bahu-\nkṛcchrādhigataṁ sākṣāt parama-puruṣārādhana-lakṣaṇo yo 'sau \ndharmas taṁ tu sāmparāya udāharanti. tad-dharmyaṁ dhanaṁ darśana-sparśana-śravaṇāsvādanāvaghrāṇa-saṅkalpa-vyavasāya-\ngṛha-grāmyopabhogena kunāthasyājitātmano yathā sārthasya vilum-\npanti.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yasyām", + "meanings": [ + "in which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "u ha", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "or" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ete", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṭ-indriya-nāmānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who are named the six senses (the mind and the five knowledge-acquiring senses)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmaṇā", + "meanings": [ + "by their activity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dasyavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the plunderers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "they" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣasya", + "meanings": [ + "of a person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhanam", + "meanings": [ + "the wealth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whatever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kiñcit", + "meanings": [ + "something" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharma-aupayikam", + "meanings": [ + "which is a means to religious principles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahu-kṛcchra-adhigatam", + "meanings": [ + "earned after much hard labor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sākṣāt", + "meanings": [ + "directly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parama-puruṣa-ārādhana-lakṣaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose symptoms are worship of the Supreme Lord by performance of sacrifices and so on" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "religious principles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sāmparāye", + "meanings": [ + "for the benefit of the living entity after death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udāharanti", + "meanings": [ + "the wise declare" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-dharmyam", + "meanings": [ + "religious (relating to the prosecution of the varṇāśrama-dharma)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhanam", + "meanings": [ + "wealth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "darśana", + "meanings": [ + "by seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sparśana", + "meanings": [ + "by touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śravaṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsvādana", + "meanings": [ + "by tasting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avaghrāṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by smelling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅkalpa", + "meanings": [ + "by determination" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyavasāya", + "meanings": [ + "by a conclusion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛha", + "meanings": [ + "in the material home" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grāmya-upabhogena", + "meanings": [ + "by material sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kunāthasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the misguided conditioned soul" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajita-ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who has not controlled himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "just as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sārthasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the living entity interested in sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilumpanti", + "meanings": [ + "they plunder." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In the forest of material existence, the uncontrolled senses are like plunderers.

This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is therefore teaching people to control the mind and five knowledge-acquiring senses by a definite process. One should practice a little austerity and not spend money on anything other than the regulative life of devotional service. The senses demand that one see beautiful things; therefore money should be spent for decorating the Deity in the temple. Similarly, the tongue has to taste good food, which should be bought and offered to the Deity. The nose can be utilized in smelling the flowers offered to the Deity, and the hearing can be utilized by listening to the vibration of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. In this way the senses can be regulated and utilized to advance Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Thus a good position might not be spoiled by material sense gratification in the form of illicit sex, meat-eating, intoxication and gambling. One spoils an opulent position in the material world by driving cars, spending time in nightclubs or tasting abominable food in restaurants.

Therefore the person is punished in so many ways, presently in Kali-yuga there are many pregnancies due to illicit sex, and sometimes abortions ensue.

Lord Kṛṣṇa says that He takes everything away from the devotee whom He especially favors when that devotee is overly attached to material possessions. When everything is taken away, the devotee feels helpless and frustrated in society, friendship and love. He feels that his family does not care for him any longer, and he therefore completely surrenders unto the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord.

Those who come to the human form through the quality of rajo-guṇa were lions in their last animal incarnation. And those who come to the human form through the quality of tamo-guṇa were monkeys in their last animal incarnation. In this age, those who come through the monkey species are considered by modern anthropologists like Darwin to be descendants of monkeys. We receive information herein that those who are simply interested in sex are actually no better than monkeys. Monkeys are very expert in sexual enjoyment, and sometimes sex glands are taken from monkeys and placed in the human body so that a human being can enjoy sex in old age. In this way modern civilization has advanced. Many monkeys in India were caught and sent to Europe so that their sex glands could serve as replacements for those of old people. Those who actually descend from the monkeys are interested in expanding their aristocratic families through sex. In the Vedas there are also certain ceremonies especially meant for sexual improvement and promotion to higher planetary systems, where the demigods are enjoying sex. The demigods are also very much inclined toward sex because that is the basic principle of material enjoyment.", + "First of all, the conditioned soul is cheated by so-called svāmīs, yogīs and incarnations when he approaches them to be relieved of material miseries. When the conditioned soul is not satisfied with them, he comes to devotees and pure brāhmaṇas who try to elevate him for final liberation from material bondage. However, the unscrupulous conditioned soul cannot rigidly follow the principles prohibiting illicit sex, intoxication, gambling and meat-eating. Thus he falls down and takes shelter of people who are like monkeys. In the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement these monkey disciples, being unable to follow the strict regulative principles, sometimes fall down and try to form societies based on sex.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mission, this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, is trying to elevate śūdras to the brāhmaṇa platform so that they will know the real goal of life. Unfortunately, being overly attached to sense gratification, materialists are not serious in helping this movement. Instead, some of them try to suppress it. Thus it is the business of monkeys to disturb the activities of the brāhmaṇas. The descendants of monkeys completely forget that they have to die, and they are very proud of scientific knowledge and the progress of material civilization. The word grāmya-karmaṇā indicates activities meant only for the improvement of bodily comforts. Presently all human society is engaged in improving economic conditions and bodily comforts. People are not interested in knowing what is going to happen after death, nor do they believe in the transmigration of the soul. When one scientifically studies the evolutionary theory, one can understand that human life is a junction where one may take the path of promotion or degradation.

Those in the mode of goodness can engage in devotional service, and after that they can return home, back to Godhead (yānti mad-yājino 'pi mām). That is the real purpose of human life. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is trying to bring intelligent human beings to the platform of devotional service.

This is described in Bhagavad-gītā (7.14): daivī hy eṣā guṇa-mayī mama māyā duratyayā. Nature is very cruel. She does not excuse anyone.

The king would supply everything for their benefit, and because of this he would levy taxes. If the king or government otherwise levies taxes on the citizens, he becomes responsible for the sinful activities of the citizens. In Kali-yuga, monarchy is abolished because the kings themselves are subjected to the influence of Kali-yuga. It is understood from the Rāmāyaṇa that when Bibhīṣaṇa became friends with Lord Rāmacandra, he promised that if by chance or will he broke the laws of friendship with Lord Rāmacandra, he would become a brāhmaṇa or a king in Kali-yuga. In this age, as Bibhīṣaṇa indicated, both brāhmaṇas and kings are in a wretched condition. Actually there are no kings or brāhmaṇas in this age, and due to their absence the whole world is in a chaotic condition and is always in distress.

Thus the men and women are decorated there by various golden ornaments, and they look very nice. Unfortunately, on earth there is such a scarcity of gold that the governments of the world try to keep it in reserve and issue paper currency. Because that currency is not backed up by gold, the paper they distribute as money is worthless, but nevertheless the people on earth are very proud of material advancement. In modern times, girls and ladies have ornaments made of plastic instead of gold, and plastic utensils are used instead of golden ones, yet people are very proud of their material wealth. Therefore the people of this age are described as mandāḥ sumanda-matayo manda-bhāgyā hy upadrutāḥ (Bhāg. 1.1.10). In other words, they are extremely bad and slow to understand the opulence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. They have been described as sumanda-matayaḥ because their conceptions are so crippled that they accept a bluffer who produces a little gold to be God. Because they have no gold in their possession, they are actually poverty-stricken, and therefore they are considered unfortunate.", + "Sometimes these unfortunate people want to be promoted to the heavenly planets to achieve fortunate positions, as described in this verse, but pure devotees of the Lord are not at all interested in such opulence. Indeed, devotees sometimes compare the color of gold to that of bright golden stool. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has instructed devotees not to be allured by golden ornaments and beautifully decorated women. Na dhanaṁ na janaṁ na sundarīm: a devotee should not be allured by gold, beautiful women or the prestige of having many followers. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, therefore, confidentially prayed, mama janmani janmanīśvare bhavatād bhaktir ahaitukī tvayi: \"My Lord, please bless Me with Your devotional service.

Externally his body becomes immune to all kinds of disease, and internally he gradually develops a devotional attitude toward the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Throughout India, many thousands of people live on the banks of the Ganges, and by regularly bathing in her waters, they are undoubtedly being purified both spiritually and materially. Many sages, including Śaṅkarācārya, have composed prayers in praise of the Ganges, and the land of India itself has become glorious because such rivers as the Ganges, Yamunā, Godāvarī, Kāverī, Kṛṣṇā and Narmadā flow there.

The devotees, however, desire to take part in the transcendental activities of the Supreme Lord. In the upper planetary system, the topmost planet is Dhruvaloka, and beneath Dhruvaloka are the seven planets occupied by the great sages, beginning with Marīci, Vasiṣṭha and Atri. All these sages regard devotional service as the highest perfection of life. Therefore they all carry the holy water of the Ganges on their heads. This verse proves that for one who has achieved the platform of pure devotional service, nothing else is important, even so-called liberation (kaivalya). Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī states that only by achieving pure devotional service of the Lord can one give up all other engagements as insignificant.

Consequently, for one who has taken shelter at the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the highest perfection of the Māyāvādīs, kaivalya, or becoming one with the Supreme, is considered hellish, to say nothing of the karmīs' aspiration to be promoted to the heavenly planets. Devotees consider such goals to be worthless phantasmagoria. There are also yogīs, who try to control their senses, but they can never succeed without coming to the stage of devotional service. The senses are compared to poisonous snakes, but the senses of a bhakta engaged in the service of the Lord are like snakes with their poisonous fangs removed. The yogī tries to suppress his senses, but even great mystics like Viśvāmitra fail in the attempt. Viśvāmitra was conquered by his senses when he was captivated by Menakā during his meditation. She later gave birth to Śakuntalā. The wisest persons in the world, therefore, are the bhakti-yogīs, as Lord Kṛṣṇa confirms in Bhagavad-gītā (6.47):", + "yoginām api sarveṣāṁ

How the Ganges water reaches the various planets from the top of the universe is explained herein. Celestial airplanes carry the water from the planets of the sages to other planets. So-called advanced scientists of the modern age are trying to go to the higher planets, but at the same time they are experiencing a power shortage on earth.

In Bhagavad-gītā (9.21) Kṛṣṇa says, kṣīṇe puṇye martya-lokaṁ viśanti: when the persons living in the heavenly planets exhaust the results of their pious activities, they return to this earth. In this way, they are elevated to the heavenly planets, and then they again fall to the earthly planets. This process is known as brahmāṇḍa bhramaṇa, wandering up and down throughout the universes. Those who are intelligent—in other words, those who have not lost their intelligence—do not involve themselves in this process of wandering up and down. They take to the devotional service of the Lord so that they can ultimately penetrate the covering of this universe and enter the spiritual kingdom. Then they are situated on one of the planets known as Vaikuṇṭhaloka or, still higher. Kṛṣṇaloka (Goloka Vṛndāvana).

Those who are sincerely seeking the favor of Kṛṣṇa come in contact with a guru, a bona fide representative of Kṛṣṇa. The Māyāvādīs indulging in mental speculation and the karmīs desiring the results of their actions cannot become gurus. A guru must be a direct representative of Kṛṣṇa who distributes the instructions of Kṛṣṇa without any change. Thus only the most fortunate persons come in contact with the guru. As confirmed in the Vedic literatures, tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet: one has to search out a guru to understand the affairs of the spiritual world. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam also confirms this point. Tasmād guruṁ prapadyeta jijñāsuḥ śreya uttamam: one who is very interested in understanding the activities in the spiritual world must search out a guru—a bona fide representative of Kṛṣṇa. From all angles of vision, therefore, the word guru is especially meant for the bona fide representative of Kṛṣṇa and no one else. Padma Purāṇa states, avaiṣṇavo gurur na syāt: one who is not a Vaiṣṇava, or who is not a representative of Kṛṣṇa, cannot be a guru. Even the most qualified brāhmaṇa cannot become a guru if he is not a representative of Kṛṣṇa. Brāhmaṇas are supposed to acquire six kinds of auspicious qualifications: they become very learned scholars (paṭhana) and very qualified teachers (pāṭhana); they become expert in worshiping the Lord or the demigods (yajana), and they teach others how to execute this worship (yājana); they qualify themselves as bona fide persons to receive alms from others (pratigraha), and they distribute the wealth in charity (dāna). Yet even a brāhmaṇa possessing these qualifications cannot become a guru unless he is the representative of Kṛṣṇa (gurur na syāt). Vaiṣṇavaḥ śva-paco guruḥ: but a Vaiṣṇava, a bona fide representative of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu, can become a guru, even if he is śva-paca, a member of a family of dog-eaters.

Pregnancy takes place only in lower-grade life. For example, animals like dogs and hogs become pregnant twice a year, and each time they beget at least half a dozen offspring. Even lower species of life such as snakes give birth to hundreds of young at one time. This verse informs us that in grades of life higher than ours, pregnancy occurs once in a lifetime. People still have sex life, but there is no pregnancy. In the spiritual world, people are not very attracted to sex life, due to their exalted devotional attitude. Practically speaking, there is no sex life in the spiritual world, but even if sometimes it does occur, there is no pregnancy at all. On the planet earth, however, human beings do become pregnant, although the tendency is to avoid having children.

Sometimes they become disgusted with the problems and seek out a process by which they can get out of this entanglement. Unfortunately, such so-called research workers are unaware of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and His illusory energy, and thus all of them work only in darkness, never finding a way out. So-called scientists and advanced research scholars are ludicrously trying to find the cause of life. They take no notice of the fact that life is already being produced. What will be their credit if they find out the chemical composition of life? All their chemicals are nothing but different transformations of the five elements—earth, water, fire, air and ether. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (2.20), the living entity is never created (na jāyate mriyate vā kadācin). There are five gross material elements and three minor material elements (mind, intelligence and ego), and there are eternal living entities. The living entity desires a certain type of body, and by the order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, that body is created from material nature, which is nothing but a kind of machine handled by the Supreme Lord. The Lord gives the living entity a particular type of mechanical body, and the living entity must work with it according to the law of fruitive activities. Fruitive activities are described in this verse: karma-parvaṇīṁ māyām. The living entity is seated on a machine (the body), and according to the order of the Supreme Lord, he operates the machine. This is the secret of transmigration of the soul from one body to another. The living entity thus becomes entangled in fruitive activities in this material world.

Why does the Supreme Personality of Godhead permit sinful activities? The Supreme Lord does not want any living being to act sinfully, and He begs him through his good conscience to refrain from sin. But when someone insists upon acting sinfully, the Supreme Lord gives him the sanction to act at his own risk (mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca).

A liberated soul is a person who has sufficient knowledge of this material world and is therefore unattached to the bodily conception of life.

Anyone who takes up Kṛṣṇa consciousness and engages himself completely in the service of the Lord cleanses his mind of all envy (manaś ca bhadraṁ bhajatād adhokṣaje).

Please pick Me up from the ocean of death and place Me as one of the atoms at Your lotus feet.\" In another prayer Lord Caitanya says, mama janmani janmanīśvare bhavatād bhaktir ahaitukī tvayi: \"Life after life, kindly let Me have unalloyed love and devotion at Your Lordship's lotus feet.\" When Prahlāda Mahārāja chants oṁ namo bhagavate narasiṁhāya, he prays for a benediction from the Lord, but because he is also an exalted Vaiṣṇava, he wants nothing for his personal sense gratification. The first desire expressed in his prayer is svasty astu viśvasya: \"Let there be good fortune throughout the entire universe.\" Prahlāda Mahārāja thus requested the Lord to be merciful to everyone, including his father, a most envious person. According to Cāṇakya Paṇḍita, there are two kinds of envious living entities: one is a snake, and the other is the man like Hiraṇyakaśipu, who is by nature envious of everyone, even of his father or son. Hiraṇyakaśipu was envious of his little son Prahlāda, but Prahlāda Mahārāja asked a benediction for the benefit of his father. Hiraṇyakaśipu was very envious of devotees, but Prahlāda wished that his father and other demons like him would give up their envious nature by the grace of the Lord and stop harassing the devotees (khalaḥ prasīdatām). The difficulty is that the khala (envious living entity) is rarely pacified. One kind of khala, the snake, can be pacified simply by mantras or by the action of a particular herb (mantrauṣadhi-vaśaḥ sarpaḥ khalakena nivāryate). An envious person, however, cannot be pacified by any means. Therefore Prahlāda Mahārāja prays that all envious persons may undergo a change of heart and think of the welfare of others.", + "If the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement spreads all over the world, and if by the grace of Kṛṣṇa everyone accepts it, the thinking of envious people will change. Everyone will think of the welfare of others. Therefore Prahlāda Mahārāja prays, śivaṁ mitho dhiyā. In material activities, everyone is envious of others, but in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, no one is envious of anyone else; everyone thinks of the welfare of others. Therefore Prahlāda Mahārāja prays that everyone's mind may become gentle by being fixed at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa (bhajatād adhokṣaje). As indicated elsewhere in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ) and as advised by Lord Kṛṣṇa in Bhagavad-gītā (18.65), man-manā bhava mad-bhaktaḥ, one should constantly think of the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Then one's mind will certainly be cleansed (ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam). Materialists always think of sense gratification, but Prahlāda Mahārāja prays that the Lord's mercy will change their minds and they will stop thinking of sense gratification. If they think of Kṛṣṇa always, everything will be all right. Some people argue that if everyone thought of Kṛṣṇa in that way, the whole universe would be vacated because everyone would go back home, back to Godhead. However, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that this is impossible because the living entities are innumerable. If one set of living entities is actually delivered by the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, another set will fill the entire universe." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/18/verses/10.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/18/verses/10.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bd527e68 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/18/verses/10.json @@ -0,0 +1,138 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 10, + "reference": "SB 5.18.10", + "devanagari": "मागारदारात्मजवित्तबन्धुषु संगो यदि स्याद्भगवत्प्रियेषु नः\nयः प्राणवृत्त्या परितुष्ट आत्मवान्सिद्ध्यत्य् अदूरान्न तथेन्द्रियप्रियः", + "transliteration": "māgāra-dārātmaja-vitta-bandhuṣu\nsaṅgo yadi syād bhagavat-priyeṣu naḥ\nyaḥ prāṇa-vṛttyā parituṣṭa ātmavān\nsiddhyaty adūrān na tathendriya-priyaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "mā", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agāra", + "meanings": [ + "house" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dāra", + "meanings": [ + "wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-ja", + "meanings": [ + "children" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vitta", + "meanings": [ + "bank balance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bandhuṣu", + "meanings": [ + "among friends and relatives" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅgaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "association or attachment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadi", + "meanings": [ + "if" + ] + }, + { + "word": "syāt", + "meanings": [ + "there must be" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat-priyeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "among persons to whom the Supreme Personality of Godhead is very dear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of us" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "anyone who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇa-vṛttyā", + "meanings": [ + "by the bare necessities of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parituṣṭaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "satisfied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-vān", + "meanings": [ + "who has controlled his mind and realized his self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "siddhyati", + "meanings": [ + "becomes successful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adūrāt", + "meanings": [ + "very soon" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "so much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "indriya-priyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a person attached to sense gratification." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Lord, we pray that we may never feel attraction for the prison of family life, consisting of home, wife, children, friends, bank balance, relatives and so on.

Those who desire material wealth worship Durgādevī with the following mantra: dhanaṁ dehi rūpaṁ dehi rūpapati-bhājaṁ dehi. \"O worshipable mother Durgādevī, please give me wealth, strength, fame, a good wife and so on.\" By pleasing goddess Durgā one can obtain such benefits, but since they are temporary, they result only in māyā-sukha (illusory happiness). As stated by Prahlāda Mahārāja, māyā-sukhāya bharam udvahato vimūḍhān: those who work very hard for material benefits are vimūḍhas, foolish rascals, because such happiness will not endure. On the other hand, devotees like Prahlāda and Dhruva Mahārāja achieved extraordinary material opulences, but such opulences were not māyā-sukha. When a devotee acquires unparalleled opulences, they are the direct gifts of the goddess of fortune, who resides in the heart of Nārāyaṇa.", + "The material opulences a person obtains by offering prayers to the goddess Durgā are temporary. As described in Bhagavad-gītā (7.23), antavat tu phalaṁ teṣāṁ tad bhavaty alpa-medhasām: men of meager intelligence desire temporary happiness. We have actually seen that one of the disciples of Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura wanted to enjoy the property of his spiritual master, and the spiritual master, being merciful toward him, gave him the temporary property, but not the power to preach the cult of Caitanya Mahāprabhu all over the world. That special mercy of the power to preach is given to a devotee who does not want anything material from his spiritual master but wants only to serve him. The story of the demon Rāvaṇa illustrates this point. Although Rāvaṇa tried to abduct the goddess of fortune Sītādevī from the custody of Lord Rāmacandra, he could not possibly do so. The Sītādevī he forcibly took with him was not the original Sītādevī, but an expansion of māyā, or Durgādevī.

In Bhagavad-gītā the Lord also says, mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ: the entire material creation is resting on Kṛṣṇa's energy, either material, spiritual or marginal, but because His form is absent from the expansion of His energy, He is not personally present. This inconceivable expansion of the Supreme Lord's energy is called acintya-śakti. Therefore no one can understand the real form of the Lord without becoming His devotee." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/18/verses/32.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/18/verses/32.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1525d8d4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/18/verses/32.json @@ -0,0 +1,142 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 32, + "reference": "SB 5.18.32", + "devanagari": "जरायुजं स्वेदजम् अण्डजोद्भिदं चराचरं देवर्षिपितृभूतम् ऐन्द्रियम्\nद्यौः खं क्षितिः शैलसरित्समुद्र द्वीपग्रहर्क्षेत्य् अभिधेय एकः", + "transliteration": "jarāyujaṁ svedajam aṇḍajodbhidaṁ\ncarācaraṁ devarṣi-pitṛ-bhūtam aindriyam\ndyauḥ khaṁ kṣitiḥ śaila-sarit-samudra-\ndvīpa-graharkṣety abhidheya ekaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "jarāyu-jam", + "meanings": [ + "one born from a womb" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sveda-jam", + "meanings": [ + "one born from perspiration" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṇḍa-ja", + "meanings": [ + "one born from an egg" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udbhidam", + "meanings": [ + "one born of the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cara-acaram", + "meanings": [ + "the moving and the stationary" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deva", + "meanings": [ + "the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣi", + "meanings": [ + "the great sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitṛ", + "meanings": [ + "the inhabitants of Pitṛloka" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūtam", + "meanings": [ + "the material elements air, fire, water and earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aindriyam", + "meanings": [ + "all the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dyauḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the higher planetary systems" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kham", + "meanings": [ + "the sky" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣitiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the earthly planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaila", + "meanings": [ + "the hills and mountains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarit", + "meanings": [ + "the rivers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samudra", + "meanings": [ + "the oceans" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvīpa", + "meanings": [ + "the islands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "graha-ṛkṣa", + "meanings": [ + "the stars and planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhidheyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "to be variously named" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "one." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Lord, You manifest Your different energies in countless forms: as living entities born from wombs, from eggs and from perspiration; as plants and trees that grow out of the earth; as all living entities, both moving and standing, including the demigods, the learned sages and the pitās; as outer space, as the higher planetary system containing the heavenly planets, and as the planet earth with its hills, rivers, seas, oceans and islands.

We know that the viṣṇu-tattva is carried by the transcendental bird Garuḍa and is equipped with different types of weapons in four hands. Therefore we may doubt whether Lord Rāmacandra could be in the same category, since He was carried by Hanumān, not by Garuḍa, and had neither four hands nor the śaṅkha, cakra, gadā and padma. Consequently this verse clarifies that Rāmacandra is as good as Kṛṣṇa (rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā). Although Kṛṣṇa is the original Supreme Personality of Godhead, Rāmacandra is not different from Him. Rāmacandra is unaffected by the modes of material nature, and therefore He is praśānta, never disturbed by those modes.", + "Unless one is saturated with love for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one cannot appreciate the transcendental value of Lord Rāmacandra; one cannot see Him with material eyes.

Actually, however, Rāvaṇa could not carry off Sītādevī in her original form. As soon as she was touched by Rāvaṇa's hands, she gave him a material form, but she maintained her original form beyond his vision.

In this verse of the Chāndogya Upaniṣad the word anena is used to distinguish the ātmā and Paramātmā as two separate identities. The words tisro devatā indicate that the body of the living entity is made of three material elements—fire, earth and water. Although the Paramātmā enters the heart of the jīvātmā, who is influenced and designated by a material body, the Paramātmā has nothing to do with the jīvātmā's body. Because the Paramātmā has no material connections, He is described here as anāma-rūpaṁ niraham. The Paramātmā has no material identity, whereas the jīvātmā does. The jīvātmā may introduce himself as an Indian, American, German and so on, but the Paramātmā has no such material designations, and therefore He has no material name. The jīvātmā is different from his name, but the Paramātmā is not; His name and He Himself are one and the same. This is the meaning of niraham, which means \"without material designations.\" This word cannot possibly be twisted to mean that the Paramātmā has no ahaṅkāra, no \"I-ness\" or identity. He has His transcendental identity as the Supreme. This is the explanation given by Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī. According to another interpretation, given by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura, niraham means nirniścayena aham. Niraham does not mean that the Supreme Lord has no identity. Rather, the stress given by the word aham proves strongly that He does have His personal identity because nir not only means \"negative\" but also means \"strong ascertainment.\"" + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/19/verses/05.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/19/verses/05.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..21fbab3e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/19/verses/05.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 19, + "verse": 5, + "reference": "SB 5.19.5", + "devanagari": "मर्त्यावतारस्त्व् इह मर्त्यशिक्षणं रक्षोवधायैव न केवलं विभोः\nकुतो ऽन्यथा स्याद्रमतः स्व आत्मनः सीताकृतानि व्यसनानीश्वरस्य", + "transliteration": "martyāvatāras tv iha martya-śikṣaṇaṁ\nrakṣo-vadhāyaiva na kevalaṁ vibhoḥ\nkuto 'nyathā syād ramataḥ sva ātmanaḥ\nsītā-kṛtāni vyasanānīśvarasya", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "martya", + "meanings": [ + "as a human being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avatāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "however" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in the material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "martya-śikṣaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "for teaching all the living entities, especially human beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rakṣaḥ-vadhāya", + "meanings": [ + "to kill the demon Rāvaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kevalam", + "meanings": [ + "only" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from where" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyathā", + "meanings": [ + "otherwise" + ] + }, + { + "word": "syāt", + "meanings": [ + "there would be" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ramataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of one enjoying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sve", + "meanings": [ + "in Himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the spiritual identity of the universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sītā", + "meanings": [ + "of the wife of Lord Rāmacandra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛtāni", + "meanings": [ + "appearing due to the separation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyasanāni", + "meanings": [ + "all the miseries" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvarasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "It was ordained that Rāvaṇa, chief of the Rākṣasas, could not be killed by anyone but a man, and for this reason Lord Rāmacandra, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, appeared in the form of a human being.

Because there is no institution to teach people how to become brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras or brahmacārīs, gṛhasthas, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs, these demons want a classless society. This is resulting in chaotic conditions. In the name of secular government, unqualified people are taking the supreme governmental posts. No one is being trained to act according to the principles of varṇāśrama-dharma, and thus people are becoming increasingly degraded and are heading in the direction of animal life. The real aim of life is liberation, but unfortunately the opportunity for liberation is being denied to people in general, and therefore their human lives are being spoiled.

In the material world, in the bodily concept of life, everyone is working in the wrong direction. When one becomes brahma-bhūta, spiritually realized, one understands that he is not the body and that working in the bodily concept of life is useless and misdirected.

When one is attracted by the beauty of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and his mind is always engaged at the Lord's lotus feet, he is no longer interested in subjects that do not help him in self-realization. In other words, he loses all attraction for material activities. In the Taittirīya Upaniṣad (2.7) it is said: eṣa hy evānandayati. yadā hy evaiṣa etasmin na dṛśye 'nātmye anirukte 'nilayane 'bhayaṁ pratiṣṭhāṁ vindate 'tha so 'bhayaṁ gato bhavati.

The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has established its center in Māyāpur, the birthsite of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, to give men the great opportunity to go there and perform a constant festival of saṅkīrtana-yajña, as recommended herein (yajñeśa-makhā mahotsavāḥ) and to distribute prasāda to millions of hungry people hankering for spiritual emancipation. This is the mission of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.

Such a person has perfect intelligence, whereas others are in the ignorance of material existence. Of all the sacrifices mentioned in the Vedic literatures, the performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña is the best. Even the performance of one hundred aśvamedha sacrifices cannot compare to the sacrifice of saṅkīrtana. According to the author of Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta, if one compares saṅkīrtana-yajña to other yajñas, he is a pāṣaṇḍī, an infidel, and is liable to be punished by Yamarāja. There are many Māyāvādīs who think that the performance of saṅkīrtana-yajña is a pious activity similar to the performance of the aśvamedha-yajña and other such pious functions, but this is a nāma-aparādha.

The inhabitants of places other than Bhārata-varṣa have facilities for material enjoyment, but they do not have the same facility to take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Therefore Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has advised that one who has taken birth as a human being in Bhārata-varṣa must first realize himself as a part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa, and after taking to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he must distribute this knowledge all over the world." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/19/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/19/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..672a85ac --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/19/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,137 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 19, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 5.19.26", + "devanagari": "यैः श्रद्धया बर्हिषि भागशो हविर्निरुप्तम् इष्टं विधिमन्त्रवस्तुतः\nएकः पृथङ्नामभिर् आहुतो मुदा गृह्णाति पूर्णः स्वयम् आशिषां प्रभुः", + "transliteration": "yaiḥ śraddhayā barhiṣi bhāgaśo havir\nniruptam iṣṭaṁ vidhi-mantra-vastutaḥ\nekaḥ pṛthaṅ-nāmabhir āhuto mudā\ngṛhṇāti pūrṇaḥ svayam āśiṣāṁ prabhuḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by whom (the inhabitants of Bhārata-varṣa)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śraddhayā", + "meanings": [ + "faith and confidence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "barhiṣi", + "meanings": [ + "in the performance of Vedic ritualistic sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by division" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haviḥ", + "meanings": [ + "oblations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niruptam", + "meanings": [ + "offered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iṣṭam", + "meanings": [ + "to the desired deity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidhi", + "meanings": [ + "by the proper method" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mantra", + "meanings": [ + "by reciting mantras" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vastutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the proper ingredients" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that one Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛthak", + "meanings": [ + "separate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by names" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhutaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "called" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mudā", + "meanings": [ + "with great happiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhṇāti", + "meanings": [ + "He accepts" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūrṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Lord, who is full in Himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "personally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśiṣām", + "meanings": [ + "of all benedictions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the bestower." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In India [Bhārata-varṣa], there are many worshipers of the demigods, the various officials appointed by the Supreme Lord, such as Indra, Candra and Sūrya, all of whom are worshiped differently.

One who engages in the service of the Lord with some motive is called a sakāma-bhakta, and one who serves the Lord without any motives is called an akāma-bhakta. Kṛṣṇa is so merciful that He turns a sakāma-bhakta into an akāma-bhakta. A pure devotee, an akāma-bhakta, who has no material motives, is satisfied simply to serve the lotus feet of the Lord. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (6.22). Yaṁ labdhvā cāparaṁ lābhaṁ manyate nādhikaṁ tataḥ: if one engages in the service of the lotus feet of the Lord, he does not want anything more. This is the highest stage of devotional service. The Lord is so kind even to a sakāma-bhakta, a motivated devotee, that He satisfies his desires in such a way that one day he becomes an akāma-bhakta. Dhruva Mahārāja, for example, became a bhakta with the motive of getting a better kingdom than that of his father, but finally he became an akāma-bhakta and said to the Lord, svāmin kṛtārtho'smi varaṁ na yāce: \"My dear Lord, I am very satisfied simply to serve Your lotus feet. I do not want any material benefits.\" Sometimes it is found that a small child eats dirty things, but his parents take away the dirty things and offer him a sandeśa or some other sweetmeat. Devotees who aspire for material benedictions are compared to such children. The Lord is so kind that He takes away their material desires and gives them the highest benediction. Therefore, even for material motives, one should not worship anyone other than the Supreme Personality of Godhead; one must fully engage himself in the devotional service of the Lord so that all his desires will be fulfilled and at the end he can go back home, back to Godhead.

The difference between the sun and earth is that the sun is a fiery planet, but everyone there has a suitable body and can live there without difficulty." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/21/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/21/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4a36331e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/21/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,49 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 5.21.1", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच एतावान् एव भूवलयस्य सन्निवेशः प्रमाणलक्षणतो \nव्याख्यातः.", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\netāvān eva bhū-valayasya sanniveśaḥ pramāṇa-lakṣaṇato \nvyākhyātaḥ.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etāvān", + "meanings": [ + "so much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhū-valayasya sanniveśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the arrangement of the whole universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pramāṇa-lakṣaṇataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "according to measurement (fifty crores of yojanas, or four billion miles in width and length) and characteristics" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyākhyātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "estimated." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: My dear King, I have thus far described the diameter of the universe [fifty crores of yojanas, or four billion miles] and its general characteristics, according to the estimations of learned scholars.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/21/verses/02.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/21/verses/02.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e5489ec5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/21/verses/02.json @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 2, + "reference": "SB 5.21.2", + "devanagari": "एतेन हि दिवो मण्डलमानं तद्विद उपदिशन्ति यथा द्विदलयोर् \nनिष्पावादीनां ते अन्तरेणान्तरिक्षं तदुभयसन्धितम्.", + "transliteration": "etena hi divo maṇḍala-mānaṁ tad-vida upadiśanti yathā dvi-dalayor \nniṣpāvādīnāṁ te antareṇāntarikṣaṁ tad-ubhaya-sandhitam.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "etena", + "meanings": [ + "by this estimation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the upper planetary system" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṇḍala-mānam", + "meanings": [ + "the measurement of the globe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-vidaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the experts who know about it" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upadiśanti", + "meanings": [ + "instruct" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "just as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvi-dalayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "in the two halves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niṣpāva-ādīnām", + "meanings": [ + "of grain such as wheat" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "of the two divisions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antareṇa", + "meanings": [ + "in the intervening space" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antarikṣam", + "meanings": [ + "the sky or outer space" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "by the two" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ubhaya", + "meanings": [ + "on both sides" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sandhitam", + "meanings": [ + "where the two parts join." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "As a grain of wheat is divided into two parts and one can estimate the size of the upper part by knowing that of the lower, so, expert geographers instruct, one can understand the measurements of the upper part of the universe by knowing those of the lower part.

The only condition, however, is the order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. All the various predominating deities of the planets are persons, and the Supreme Personality of Godhead is also a person. The Supreme Personality orders the subordinate persons, the demigods of various names, to carry out His supreme will. This fact is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (9.10), wherein Kṛṣṇa says:", + "mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ

The Supreme Personality of Godhead and material nature work together to maintain this great universe, and not only this universe but also the millions of other universes beyond this one.", + "The question of how the planets and stars are floating is also answered in this verse. It is not because of the laws of gravity. Rather, the planets and stars are enabled to float by manipulations of the air. It is due to such manipulations that big, heavy clouds float and big eagles fly in the sky. Modern airplanes like the 747 jet aircraft work in a similar way: by controlling the air, they float high in the sky, resisting the tendency to fall to earth. Such adjustments of the air are all made possible by the cooperation of the principles of puruṣa (male) and prakṛti (female). By the cooperation of material nature, which is considered to be prakṛti, and the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is considered the puruṣa, all the affairs of the universe are going on nicely in their proper order. Prakṛti, material nature, is also described in the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.44) as follows:", + "sṛṣṭi-sthiti-pralaya-sādhana-śaktir ekā

govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi", + "\"The external potency, māyā, who is of the nature of the shadow of the cit [spiritual] potency, is worshiped by all people as Durgā, the creating, preserving and destroying agency of this mundane world. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, in accordance with whose will Durgā conducts herself.\" Material nature, the external energy of the Supreme Lord, is also known as Durgā, or the female energy that protects the great fort of this universe. The word Durgā also means fort. This universe is just like a great fort in which all the conditioned souls are kept, and they cannot leave it unless they are liberated by the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord Himself declares in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9):", + "janma karma ca me divyam
evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ
tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma
naiti mām eti so 'rjuna", + "\"One who knows the transcendental nature of My appearance and activities does not, upon leaving the body, take his birth again in this material world, but attains My eternal abode, O Arjuna.\" Thus simply by Kṛṣṇa consciousness, by the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one can be liberated, or, in other words, one can be released from the great fort of this universe and go outside it to the spiritual world.", + "It is also significant that the predominating deities of even the greatest planets have been offered their exalted posts because of the very valuable pious activities they performed in previous births. This is indicated herein by the words karma-nirmita-gatayaḥ. For example, as we have previously discussed, the moon is called jīva, which means that he is a living entity like us, but because of his pious activities he has been appointed to his post as the moon-god. Similarly, all the demigods are living entities who have been appointed to their various posts as the masters of the moon, the earth, Venus and so on because of their great service and pious acts. Only the predominating deity of the sun, Sūrya Nārāyaṇa, is an incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Mahārāja Dhruva, the predominating deity of Dhruvaloka, is also a living entity. Thus there are two kinds of entities—the supreme entity, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and the ordinary living entity, the jīva (nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām). All the demigods are engaged in the service of the Lord, and only by such an arrangement are the affairs of the universe going on.", + "Regarding the great eagles mentioned in this verse, it is understood that there are eagles so big that they can prey on big elephants. They fly so high that they can travel from one planet to another. They start flying in one planet and land in another, and while in flight they lay eggs that hatch into other birds while falling through the air. In Sanskrit such eagles are called śyena. Under the present circumstances, of course, we cannot see such huge birds, but at least we know of eagles that can capture monkeys and then throw them down to kill and eat them. Similarly, it is understood that there are gigantic birds that can carry off elephants, kill them and eat them.", + "The two examples of the eagle and the cloud are sufficient to prove that flying and floating can be made possible through adjustments of the air. The planets, in a similar way, are floating because material nature adjusts the air according to the orders of the Supreme Lord. It could be said that these adjustments constitute the law of gravity, but in any case, one must accept that these laws are made by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The so-called scientists have no control over them. The scientists can falsely, improperly declare that there is no God, but this is not a fact." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/23/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/23/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5a1dd523 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/23/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,63 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 5.23.4", + "devanagari": "केचनैतज्ज्योतिरनीकं शिशुमारसंस्थानेन भगवतो \nवासुदेवस्य योगधारणायाम् अनुवर्णयन्ति.", + "transliteration": "kecanaitaj jyotir-anīkaṁ śiśumāra-saṁsthānena bhagavato \nvāsudevasya yoga-dhāraṇāyām anuvarṇayanti.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kecana", + "meanings": [ + "some yogīs or learned scholars of astronomy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jyotiḥ-anīkam", + "meanings": [ + "great wheel of planets and stars" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śiśumāra-saṁsthānena", + "meanings": [ + "imagine this wheel to be a śiśumāra (dolphin)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsudevasya", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Vāsudeva (the son of Vasudeva), Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoga-dhāraṇāyām", + "meanings": [ + "in absorption in worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuvarṇayanti", + "meanings": [ + "describe." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "This great machine, consisting of the stars and planets, resembles the form of a śiśumāra [dolphin] in the water.

Thus the distance from the sun to Satyaloka is 233,800,000 yojanas, or 1,870,400,000 miles. The Vaikuṇṭha planets begin 26,200,000 yojanas (209,600,000 miles) above Satyaloka. Thus the Viṣṇu Purāṇa describes that the covering of the universe is 260,000,000 yojanas (2,080,000,000 miles) away from the sun. The distance from the sun to the earth is 100,000 yojanas, and below the earth by 70,000 yojanas are the seven lower planetary systems called Atala, Vitala, Sutala, Talātala, Mahātala, Rasātala and Pātāla. Below these lower planets by 30,000 yojanas, Śeṣa Nāga is lying on the Garbhodaka Ocean. That ocean is 249,800,000 yojanas deep. Thus the total diameter of the universe is approximately 500,000,000 yojanas, or 4,000,000,000 miles." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/24/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/24/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c841daa8 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/05/chapters/24/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,187 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 5, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 5.24.1", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच अधस्तात्सवितुर्योजनायुते स्वर्भानुर्नक्षत्रवच्चरतीत्य् एके यो \nऽसाव् अमरत्वं ग्रहत्वं चालभत भगवदनुकम्पया स्वयम् \nअसुरापसदः सैंहिकेयो ह्य् अतदर्हस्तस्य तात जन्म कर्माणि \nचोपरिष्टाद्वक्ष्यामः.", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\nadhastāt savitur yojanāyute svarbhānur nakṣatravac caratīty eke yo \n'sāv amaratvaṁ grahatvaṁ cālabhata bhagavad-anukampayā svayam \nasurāpasadaḥ saiṁhikeyo hy atad-arhas tasya tāta janma karmāṇi \ncopariṣṭād vakṣyāmaḥ.", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhastāt", + "meanings": [ + "below" + ] + }, + { + "word": "savituḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the sun globe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yojana", + "meanings": [ + "a measurement equal to eight miles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayute", + "meanings": [ + "ten thousand" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svarbhānuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the planet known as Rāhu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nakṣatra-vat", + "meanings": [ + "like one of the stars" + ] + }, + { + "word": "carati", + "meanings": [ + "is rotating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eke", + "meanings": [ + "some who are learned in the Purāṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amaratvam", + "meanings": [ + "a lifetime like those of the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grahatvam", + "meanings": [ + "a position as one of the chief planets" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alabhata", + "meanings": [ + "obtained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat-anukampayā", + "meanings": [ + "by the compassion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "personally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asura-apasadaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the lowest of the asuras" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saiṁhikeyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being the son of Siṁhikā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "a-tat-arhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "not qualified for that position" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "his" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāta", + "meanings": [ + "O my dear King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "birth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upariṣṭāt", + "meanings": [ + "later" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vakṣyāmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "I shall explain." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: My dear King, some historians, the speakers of the Purāṇas, say that 10,000 yojanas [80,000 miles] below the sun is the planet known as Rāhu, which moves like one of the stars.

This intoxicant endows the man with great sexual prowess, of which the women take advantage for enjoyment. A woman will enchant him with attractive glances, intimate words, smiles of love and then embraces. In this way she induces him to enjoy sex with her to her full satisfaction.

Only one who is very highly elevated in spiritual realization can understand the lusty feelings exchanged between Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa, or between Kṛṣṇa and the damsels of Vraja. Therefore, unless one is very experienced and advanced in spiritual realization, he is forbidden to discuss the lusty feelings of Kṛṣṇa and the gopīs.

The words nija-veda-patha can also mean \"one's own set of religious principles.\" Formerly there was only one veda-patha, or set of religious principles. Now there are many. It doesn't matter which set of religious principles one follows: the only injunction is that he must follow them strictly. An atheist, or nāstika, is one who does not believe in the Vedas. However, even if one takes up a different system of religion, according to this verse he must follow the religious principles he has accepted. Whether one is a Hindu, or a Mohammedan or a Christian, he should follow his own religious principles. However, if one concocts his own religious path within his mind, or if one follows no religious principles at all, he is punished in the hell known as Asi-patravana.

Thus there is always the chance that he may be put into the Pūyoda Naraka, the hell named Pūyoda, where one is forced to eat stool, urine, pus, mucus, saliva and other abominable things. It is significant that this verse is spoken especially about śūdras. If one is born a śūdra, he must continually return to the ocean of Pūyoda to eat horrible things. Thus even a born śūdra is expected to become a brāhmaṇa; that is the meaning of human life. Everyone should improve himself. Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.13), cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ: \"According to the three modes of material nature and the work ascribed to them, four divisions of human society were created by Me.\" Even if one is by qualification a śūdra, he must try to improve his position and become a brāhmaṇa. No one should try to check a person, no matter what his present position is, from coming to the platform of a brāhmaṇa or a Vaiṣṇava. Actually, one must come to the platform of a Vaiṣṇava. Then he automatically becomes a brāhmaṇa. This can be done only if the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is spread, for we are trying to elevate everyone to the platform of Vaiṣṇava. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (18.66), sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja: \"Abandon all other duties and simply surrender unto Me.\" One must give up the occupational duties of a śūdra, kṣatriya or vaiśya and adopt the occupational duties of a Vaiṣṇava, which include the activities of a brāhmaṇa. Kṛṣṇa explains this in Bhagavad-gītā (9.32):", + "māṁ hi pārtha vyapāśritya

That facility should be given to everyone, whether one be a śūdra, a vaiśya, a woman or a kṣatriya. This is the purpose of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.

Therefore the śūdra mentality is causing great harm to modern civilization. A śūdra does not know how to use money to render transcendental loving service to the Lord. Money is also called lakṣmī, and Lakṣmī is always engaged in the service of Nārāyaṇa. Wherever there is money, it must be engaged in the service of Lord Nārāyaṇa. Everyone should use his money to spread the great transcendental movement of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. If one does not spend money for this purpose but accumulates more than necessary, he will certainly become proud of the money he illegally possesses.

Now Mahārāja Parīkṣit, being a devotee, is concerned with how this can be stopped. A Vaiṣṇava is para-duḥkha-duḥkhī; in other words, he has no personal troubles, but he is very unhappy to see others in trouble. Prahlāda Mahārāja said, \"My Lord, I have no personal problems, for I have learned how to glorify Your transcendental qualities and thus enter a trance of ecstasy. I do have a problem, however, for I am simply thinking of these rascals and fools who are busy with māyā-sukha, temporary happiness, without knowledge of devotional service unto You.\" This is the problem faced by a Vaiṣṇava. Because a Vaiṣṇava fully takes shelter of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he personally has no problems, but because he is compassionate toward the fallen, conditioned souls, he is always thinking of plans to save them from their hellish life in this body and the next. Parīkṣit Mahārāja, therefore, anxiously wanted to know from Śukadeva Gosvāmī how humanity can be saved from gliding down to hell. Śukadeva Gosvāmī had already explained how people enter hellish life, and he could also explain how they could be saved from it. Intelligent men must take advantage of these instructions. Unfortunately, however, the entire world is lacking Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and therefore people are suffering from the grossest ignorance and do not even believe in a life after this one. To convince them of their next life is very difficult because they have become almost mad in their pursuit of material enjoyment. Nevertheless, our duty, the duty of all sane men, is to save them.

This is first-class tapaḥ. Brahmacarya, the life of celibacy, has eight aspects: one should not think of women, speak about sex life, dally with women, look lustfully at women, talk intimately with women or decide to engage in sexual intercourse, nor should one endeavor for sex life or engage in sex life. One should not even think of women or look at them, to say nothing of talking with them. This is called first-class brahmacarya. If a brahmacārī or sannyāsī talks with a woman in a secluded place, naturally there will be a possibility of sex life without anyone's knowledge. Therefore a complete brahmacārī practices just the opposite. If one is a perfect brahmacārī, he can very easily control the mind and senses, give charity, speak truthfully and so forth. To begin, however, one must control the tongue and the process of eating.", + "In the bhakti-mārga, the path of devotional service, one must strictly follow the regulative principles by first controlling the tongue (sevonmukhe hi jihvādau svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ). The tongue (jihvā) can be controlled if one chants the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, does not speak of any subjects other than those concerning Kṛṣṇa and does not taste anything not offered to Kṛṣṇa. If one can control the tongue in this way, brahmacarya and other purifying processes will automatically follow. It will be explained in the next verse that the path of devotional service is completely perfect and is therefore superior to the path of fruitive activities and the path of knowledge. Quoting from the Vedas, Śrīla Vīrarāghava Ācārya explains that austerity involves observing fasts as fully as possible (tapasānāśakena).

That is the test of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Both pious and impious activities are actually due to ignorance because a living entity, as an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, has no need to act for his personal sense gratification. Therefore as soon as one is reclaimed to the platform of devotional service, he relinquishes his attachment for pious and impious activities and is interested only in what will satisfy Kṛṣṇa.

The desire to commit sinful actions continues in their hearts due to ignorance. These sinful actions are divided into three categories—pātaka, mahā-pātaka and atipātaka—and also into two divisions: prārabdha and aprārabdha. Prārabdha refers to sinful reactions from which one is suffering at the present, and aprārabdha refers to sources of potential suffering. When the seeds (bīja) of sinful reactions have not yet fructified, the reactions are called aprārabdha. These seeds of sinful action are unseen, but they are unlimited, and no one can trace when they were first planted. Because of prārabdha, sinful reactions that have already fructified, one is seen to have taken birth in a low family or to be suffering from other miseries.", + "When one takes to devotional service, however, all phases of sinful life, including prārabdha, aprārabdha and bīja, are vanquished.

Therefore, what is to be said of one who has seen You directly?\"", + "In the Padma Purāṇa there is a statement that persons whose hearts are always attached to the devotional service of Lord Viṣṇu are immediately released from all the reactions of sinful life. These reactions generally exist in four phases. Some of them are ready to produce results immediately, some are in the form of seeds, some are unmanifested, and some are current. All such reactions are immediately nullified by devotional service. When devotional service is present in one's heart, desires to perform sinful activities have no place there. Sinful life is due to ignorance, which means forgetfulness of one's constitutional position as an eternal servant of God, but when one is fully Kṛṣṇa conscious he realizes that he is God's eternal servant.", + "In this regard, Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī comments that bhakti may be divided into two divisions: (1) santatā, devotional service that continues incessantly with faith and love, and (2) kādācitkī, devotional service that does not continue incessantly but is sometimes awakened. Incessantly flowing devotional service (santatā) may also be divided into two categories: (1) service performed with slight attachment and (2) spontaneous devotional service. Intermittent devotional service (kādācitkī) may be divided into three categories: (1) rāgābhāsamayī, devotional service in which one is almost attached, (2) rāgābhāsa-śūnya-svarūpa-bhūtā, devotional service in which there is no spontaneous love but one likes the constitutional position of serving, and (3) ābhāsa-rūpā, a slight glimpse of devotional service. As for atonement, if one has caught even a slight glimpse of devotional service, all needs to undergo prāyaścitta, atonement, are superseded. Therefore atonement is certainly unnecessary when one has achieved spontaneous love and, above that, attachment with love, which are signs of increasing advancement in kādācitkī. Even in the stage of ābhāsa-rūpā bhakti, all the reactions of sinful life are uprooted and vanquished. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī expresses the opinion that the word kārtsnyena means that even if one has a desire to commit sinful actions, the roots of that desire are vanquished merely by ābhāsa-rūpā bhakti. The example of bhāskara, the sun, is most appropriate. The ābhāsa feature of bhakti is compared to twilight, and the accumulation of one's sinful activities is compared to fog. Since fog does not spread throughout the sky, the sun need do no more than merely manifest its first rays, and the fog immediately disappears. Similarly, if one has even a slight relationship with devotional service, all the fog of his sinful life is immediately vanquished." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/01/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/01/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b21c79e4 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/01/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,78 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 6.1.16", + "devanagari": "न तथा ह्य् अघवान्राजन्पूयेत तपआदिभिः\nयथा कृष्णार्पितप्राणस्तत्पुरुषनिषेवया", + "transliteration": "na tathā hy aghavān rājan\npūyeta tapa-ādibhiḥ\nyathā kṛṣṇārpita-prāṇas\ntat-puruṣa-niṣevayā", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "so much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agha-vān", + "meanings": [ + "a man full of sinful activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājan", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūyeta", + "meanings": [ + "can become purified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ-ādibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by executing the principles of austerity, penance, brahmacarya and other purifying processes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as much as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇa-arpita-prāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the devotee whose life is fully Kṛṣṇa conscious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-puruṣa-niṣevayā", + "meanings": [ + "by engaging his life in the service of Kṛṣṇa's representative." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear King, if a sinful person engages in the service of a bona fide devotee of the Lord and thus learns how to dedicate his life unto the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, he can be completely purified.

Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (5.5.2) says, mahat-sevāṁ dvāram āhur vimukteḥ: if one desires liberation from the clutches of māyā, one must associate with a pure devotee mahātmā. A mahātmā is one who engages twenty-four hours daily in the loving service of the Lord. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (9.13):", + "mahātmānas tu māṁ pārtha

One must render service to a Vaiṣṇava in order to get freed from sinful reactions, revive one's original Kṛṣṇa consciousness and be trained in how to love Kṛṣṇa. This is the result of mahātma-sevā. Of course, if one engages in the service of a pure devotee, the reactions of one's sinful life are vanquished automatically. Devotional service is necessary not to drive away an insignificant stock of sins, but to awaken our dormant love for Kṛṣṇa. As fog is vanquished at the first glimpse of sunlight, one's sinful reactions are automatically vanquished as soon as one begins serving a pure devotee; no separate endeavor is required.", + "The word kṛṣṇarpita-prāṇaḥ refers to a devotee who dedicates his life to serving Kṛṣṇa, not to being saved from the path to hellish life.

Do not fear.\" This same principle is described here (sakṛn manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ). If by studying Bhagavad-gītā one decides to surrender to Kṛṣṇa, he is immediately freed from all sinful reactions. It is also significant that Śukadeva Gosvāmī, having several times repeated the words vāsudeva-parāyaṇa and nārāyaṇa-parāyaṇa, finally says kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. Thus he indicates that Kṛṣṇa is the origin of both Nārāyaṇa and Vāsudeva. Even though Nārāyaṇa and Vāsudeva are not different from Kṛṣṇa, simply by surrendering to Kṛṣṇa one fully surrenders to all His expansions, such as Nārāyaṇa, Vāsudeva and Govinda. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (7.7), mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyat: \"There is no truth superior to Me.\" There are many names and forms of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but Kṛṣṇa is the supreme form (kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam). Therefore Kṛṣṇa recommends to neophyte devotees that one should surrender unto Him only (mām ekam). Because neophyte devotees cannot understand what the forms of Nārāyaṇa, Vāsudeva and Govinda are, Kṛṣṇa directly says, mām ekam. Herein, this is also supported by the word kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. Nārāyaṇa does not speak personally, but Kṛṣṇa or Vāsudeva does, as in Bhagavad-gītā for example. Therefore, to follow the direction of Bhagavad-gītā means to surrender unto Kṛṣṇa, and to surrender in this way is the highest perfection of bhakti-yoga.", + "Parīkṣit Mahārāja had inquired from Śukadeva Gosvāmī how one can be saved from falling into the various conditions of hellish life. In this verse Śukadeva Gosvāmī answers that a soul who has surrendered to Kṛṣṇa certainly cannot go to naraka, hellish existence. To say nothing of going there, even in his dreams he does not see Yamarāja or his order carriers, who are able to take one there. In other words, if one wants to save himself from falling into naraka, hellish life, he should fully surrender to Kṛṣṇa. The word sakṛt is significant because it indicates that if one sincerely surrenders to Kṛṣṇa once, he is saved even if by chance he falls down by committing sinful activities.

However, even if one who has surrendered to Kṛṣṇa happens to do something sinful because of his former habits, such sinful actions no longer have a destructive effect.

Therefore, as stated in the beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, dharmaḥ projjhita-kaitavo 'tra: dharma not supported by the Vedas is rejected from śrīmad-bhāgavata-dharma. Bhāgavata-dharma comprises only that which is given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Bhāgavata-dharma is sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja: one must accept the authority of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and surrender to Him and whatever He says. That is dharma. Arjuna, for example, thinking that violence was adharma, was declining to fight, but Kṛṣṇa urged him to fight. Arjuna abided by the orders of Kṛṣṇa, and therefore he is actually a dharmī because the order of Kṛṣṇa is dharma. Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15), vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ: \"The real purpose of veda, knowledge, is to know Me.\" One who knows Kṛṣṇa perfectly is liberated. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9):", + "janma karma ca me divyam
evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ
tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma
naiti mām eti so 'rjuna", + "\"One who knows the transcendental nature of My appearance and activities does not, upon leaving the body, take his birth again in this material world, but attains My eternal abode, O Arjuna.\" One who understands Kṛṣṇa and abides by His order is a candidate for returning home, back to Godhead. It may be concluded that dharma, religion, refers to that which is ordered in the Vedas, and adharma, irreligion, refers to that which is not supported in the Vedas.", + "Dharma is not actually manufactured by Nārāyaṇa. As stated in the Vedas, asya mahato bhūtasya niśvasitam etad yad ṛg-vedaḥ iti: the injunctions of dharma emanate from the breathing of Nārāyaṇa, the supreme living entity. Nārāyaṇa exists eternally and breathes eternally, and therefore dharma, the injunctions of Nārāyaṇa, also exist eternally. Śrīla Madhvācārya, the original ācārya for those who belong to the Mādhva-Gauḍīya-sampradāya, says:", + "vedānāṁ prathamo vaktā

Therefore the Vedic principles should be understood to be Vaiṣṇava principles because Viṣṇu is the origin of the Vedas. The Vedas contain nothing besides the instructions of Viṣṇu, and one who follows the Vedic principles is a Vaiṣṇava. The Vaiṣṇava is not a member of a manufactured community of this material world.

The subtle body, which is called liṅga, the body of desire, is the background for the development of a particular type of gross body, which is either like that of one's mother or like that of one's father. According to the Ṛg Veda, if at the time of sex the secretions of the mother are more profuse than those of the father, the child will receive a female body, and if the secretions of the father are more profuse than those of the mother, the child will receive a male body. These are the subtle laws of nature, which act according to the desire of the living entity. If a human being is taught to change his subtle body by developing a consciousness of Kṛṣṇa, at the time of death the subtle body will create a gross body in which he will be a devotee of Kṛṣṇa, or if he is still more perfect, he will not take another material body but will immediately get a spiritual body and thus return home, back to Godhead. This is the process of the transmigration of the soul. Therefore instead of trying to unite human society through pacts for sense gratification that can never be achieved, it is clearly desirable to teach people how to become Kṛṣṇa conscious and return home, back to Godhead.

On the other hand, chanting the holy name of the Lord even once not only frees one immediately from the reactions of the greatest sins, but also raises one to the platform of rendering loving service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is described as uttamaśloka because He is famous for His glorious activities. Thus one serves the Lord by remembering His form, His attributes and pastimes. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura explains that this is all possible simply by chanting the Lord's holy name because of the Lord's omnipotence.

Certainly this was due to good counsel given from within by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15), sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca: \"I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness.\" The Lord, who is situated in everyone's heart, is so kind that if one has ever rendered service to Him, the Lord never forgets him. Thus the Lord, from within, gave Ajāmila the opportunity to name his youngest son Nārāyaṇa so that in affection he would constantly call \"Nārāyaṇa! Nārāyaṇa!\" and thus be saved from the most fearful and dangerous condition at the time of his death. Such is the mercy of Kṛṣṇa. Guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde pāya bhakti-latā-bīja [Madhya 19.151]: by the mercy of the guru and Kṛṣṇa, one receives the seed of bhakti. This association saves a devotee from the greatest fear. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement we therefore change a devotee's name to a form that reminds him of Viṣṇu. If at the time of death the devotee can remember his own name, such as Kṛṣṇadāsa or Govinda dāsa, he can be saved from the greatest danger. Therefore the change of names at the time of initiation is essential. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is so meticulous that it gives one a good opportunity to remember Kṛṣṇa somehow or other." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/02/verses/33.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/02/verses/33.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..8640f2cd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/02/verses/33.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 33, + "reference": "SB 6.2.33", + "devanagari": "अन्यथा म्रियमाणस्य नाशुचेर्वृषलीपतेः\nवैकुण्ठनामग्रहणं जिह्वा वक्तुम् इहार्हति", + "transliteration": "anyathā mriyamāṇasya\nnāśucer vṛṣalī-pateḥ\nvaikuṇṭha-nāma-grahaṇaṁ\njihvā vaktum ihārhati", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "anyathā", + "meanings": [ + "otherwise" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mriyamāṇasya", + "meanings": [ + "of a person who is just ready for death" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśuceḥ", + "meanings": [ + "most unclean" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛṣalī-pateḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the keeper of a prostitute" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaikuṇṭha", + "meanings": [ + "of the Lord of Vaikuṇṭha" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma-grahaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "the chanting of the holy name" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jihvā", + "meanings": [ + "the tongue" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaktum", + "meanings": [ + "to speak" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iha", + "meanings": [ + "in this situation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arhati", + "meanings": [ + "is able." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Were it not for my past devotional service, how could I, a most unclean keeper of a prostitute, have gotten an opportunity to chant the holy name of Vaikuṇṭhapati when I was just ready to die?

How is it possible, then, that simply by once chanting the holy name of the Lord one immediately becomes freed from the reactions of such sins?\"", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura replies by quoting verses nine and ten of this chapter: \"The chanting of the holy name of Lord Viṣṇu is the best process of atonement for a thief of gold or other valuables, for a drunkard, for one who betrays a friend or relative, for one who kills a brāhmaṇa, or for one who indulges in sex with the wife of his guru or another superior. It is also the best method of atonement for one who murders women, the king or his father, for one who slaughters cows, and for all other sinful men. Simply by chanting the holy name of Lord Viṣṇu, such sinful persons may attract the attention of the Supreme Lord, who therefore considers, 'Because this man has chanted My holy name, My duty is to give him protection.' \"", + "One may atone for sinful life and vanquish all sinful reactions by chanting the holy name, although this is not called atonement. Ordinary atonement may temporarily protect a sinful person, but it does not completely cleanse his heart of the deep-rooted desire to commit sinful acts. Therefore atonement is not as powerful as the chanting of the holy name of the Lord. In the śāstras it is said that if a person only once chants the holy name and completely surrenders unto the lotus feet of the Lord, the Lord immediately considers him His ward and is always inclined to give him protection. This is confirmed by Śrīdhara Svāmī. Thus when Ajāmila was in great danger of being carried off by the order carriers of Yamarāja, the Lord immediately sent His personal order carriers to protect him, and because Ajāmila was freed from all sinful reactions, the Viṣṇudūtas spoke on his behalf.", + "Ajāmila had named his son Nārāyaṇa, and because he loved the boy very much, he would call him again and again. Although he was calling for his son, the name itself was powerful because the name Nārāyaṇa is not different from the Supreme Lord Nārāyaṇa. When Ajāmila named his son Nārāyaṇa, all the reactions of his sinful life were neutralized, and as he continued calling his son and thus chanting the holy name of Nārāyaṇa thousands of times, he was actually unconsciously advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "One may argue, \"Since he was constantly chanting the name of Nārāyaṇa, how was it possible for him to be associating with a prostitute and thinking of wine? By his sinful actions he was bringing suffering upon himself again and again, and therefore one may say that his ultimate chanting of Nārāyaṇa was the cause of his being freed. However, his chanting would then have been a nāma-aparādha. Nāmno balād yasya hi pāpa-buddhiḥ: one who continues to act sinfully and tries to neutralize his sins by chanting the holy name of the Lord is a nāma-aparādhī, an offender to the holy name. In response it may be said that Ajāmila's chanting was inoffensive because he did not chant the name of Nārāyaṇa with the purpose of counteracting his sins. He did not know that he was addicted to sinful actions, nor did he know that his chanting of the name of Nārāyaṇa was neutralizing them. Thus he did not commit a nāma-aparādha, and his repeated chanting of the holy name of Nārāyaṇa while calling his son may be called pure chanting. Because of this pure chanting, Ajāmila unconsciously accumulated the results of bhakti. Indeed, even his first utterance of the holy name was sufficient to nullify all the sinful reactions of his life. To cite a logical example, a fig tree does not immediately yield fruits, but in time the fruits are available. Similarly, Ajāmila's devotional service grew little by little, and therefore although he committed very sinful acts, the reactions did not affect him. In the śāstras it is said that if one chants the holy name of the Lord even once, the reactions of past, present or future sinful life do not affect him. To give another example, if one extracts the poison fangs of a serpent, this saves the serpent's future victims from poisonous effects, even if the serpent bites repeatedly. Similarly, if a devotee chants the holy name even once inoffensively, this protects him eternally. He need only wait for the results of the chanting to mature in due course of time." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/03/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/03/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..297828d2 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/03/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 6.3.1", + "devanagari": "श्रीराजोवाच\nनिशम्य देवः स्वभटोपवर्णितं प्रत्याह किं तान् अपि धर्मराजः\nएवं हताज्ञो विहतान्मुरारेर्नैदेशिकैर्यस्य वशे जनो ऽयम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-rājovāca\nniśamya devaḥ sva-bhaṭopavarṇitaṁ\npratyāha kiṁ tān api dharmarājaḥ\nevaṁ hatājño vihatān murārer\nnaideśikair yasya vaśe jano 'yam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-rājā uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "the King said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niśamya", + "meanings": [ + "after hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Yamarāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-bhaṭa", + "meanings": [ + "of his own servants" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upavarṇitam", + "meanings": [ + "the statements" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyāha", + "meanings": [ + "replied" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tān", + "meanings": [ + "unto them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharma-rājaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Yamarāja, the superintendent of death and the judge of religious and irreligious activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hata-ājñaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose order was foiled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vihatān", + "meanings": [ + "who were defeated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "murāreḥ naideśikaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the order carriers of Murāri, Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "of whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaśe", + "meanings": [ + "under the subjugation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janaḥ ayam", + "meanings": [ + "all the people of the world." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "King Parīkṣit said: O my lord, O Śukadeva Gosvāmī, Yamarāja is the controller of all living entities in terms of their religious and irreligious activities, but his order had been foiled.

If there were many authorities who gave different judgments, which could be contradictory, a person might be wrongly punished or wrongly rewarded, or he might be neither punished nor rewarded.

However, in the law of nature or the court of the Supreme Personality of Godhead there cannot be such contradictory judgments. The judges and their judgments must be perfect and free from contradictions.

There are four lines of disciplic succession: one from Lord Brahmā, one from Lord Śiva, one from Lakṣmī, the goddess of fortune, and one from the Kumāras.

One must take shelter of one of these four sampradāyas in order to understand the most confidential religious system.

Everything in the Bhāgavatam is directly connected with the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Such a religious system begins with tan-nāma-grahaṇa, chanting of the holy name of the Lord (śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ smaraṇaṁ pāda-sevanam). After chanting the holy name of the Lord and dancing in ecstasy, one gradually sees the form of the Lord, the pastimes of the Lord and the transcendental qualities of the Lord. This way one fully understands the situation of the Personality of Godhead. One can come to this understanding of the Lord, how He descends into the material world, how He takes His births and what activities He performs, but one can know this only by executing devotional service.

If the members of our temples in the different parts of the world simply continue saṅkīrtana before the Deity, especially before Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, they will remain perfect. There is no need of any other performances. Nevertheless, to keep oneself clean in habits and mind, Deity worship and other regulative principles are required. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī says that although saṅkīrtana is sufficient for the perfection of life, the arcanā, or worship of the Deity in the temple, must continue in order that the devotees may stay clean and pure. Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura therefore recommended that one follow both processes simultaneously. We strictly follow his principle of performing Deity worship and saṅkīrtana along parallel lines.

A pure devotee is one whose intelligence is clear; he is truly thoughtful because he engages in the service of the Lord—not as a matter of show, but with love, with his mind, words and body.

In such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of the Lord constantly.\" Those engaged in preaching the glories of the Lord should be humbler than grass and more tolerant than a tree; then they can preach the glories of the Lord without difficulty." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/04/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/04/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6b5a9d9d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/04/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 6.4.6", + "devanagari": "ताभ्यां निर्दह्यमानांस्तान् उपलभ्य कुरूद्वह\nराजोवाच महान्सोमो मन्युं प्रशमयन्न् इव", + "transliteration": "tābhyāṁ nirdahyamānāṁs tān\nupalabhya kurūdvaha\nrājovāca mahān somo\nmanyuṁ praśamayann iva", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tābhyām", + "meanings": [ + "by the wind and fire" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirdahyamānān", + "meanings": [ + "being burned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tān", + "meanings": [ + "them (the trees)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upalabhya", + "meanings": [ + "seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kurūdvaha", + "meanings": [ + "O Mahārāja Parīkṣit" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājā", + "meanings": [ + "the king of the forest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahān", + "meanings": [ + "the great" + ] + }, + { + "word": "somaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "predominating deity of the moon, Somadeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manyum", + "meanings": [ + "the anger" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praśamayan", + "meanings": [ + "pacifying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear King Parīkṣit, when Soma, the king of the trees and predominating deity of the moon, saw the fire and wind burning all the trees to ashes, he felt great sympathy because he is the maintainer of all herbs and trees.

In other words, a pure devotee, by devotional service, is able to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead despite many material impediments, which are all various energies of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Easily making his way through these impediments, a devotee comes directly in contact with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. After all, the material impediments described in these verses are but various energies of the Lord.

False happiness in the material world is the source of distress, but when one's endeavors for happiness are redirected toward the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, this tāpa-karī element of misery is vanquished. An example given in this connection is that extracting fire from wood is certainly difficult, but when the fire comes out it burns the wood to ashes.

The devotee tries to come directly in touch with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, whereas the yogī tries to find the Supersoul within the heart by meditation. Thus, both directly and indirectly, yoga means bhakti-yoga. Sāṅkhya, however, means physical study of the cosmic situation through speculative knowledge. This is generally known as jñāna-śāstra. The Sāṅkhyites are attached to the impersonal Brahman, but the Absolute Truth is known in three ways.

Thus the pleasing appearance of the Supreme Personality of Godhead's bodily features, His limbs and His dress are described. The sāṅkhya-śāstra, however, denies the existence of the Lord's transcendental form.

Actually such statements accept that the Supreme has hands and legs, but deny that He has material hands and legs. This is why the Absolute is called aprākṛta. Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has a sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, a form of eternity, knowledge and bliss, not a material form.

Therefore the word vastu-niṣṭhayoḥ, which is used herein, indicates that both the yogīs and Sāṅkhyites have faith in the reality, but are arguing about it from the different viewpoints of material and spiritual identities. Parabrahman, or bṛhat, is the common point. The Sāṅkhyites and yogīs are both situated in that same Brahman, but they differ because of different angles of vision.", + "The directions given by the bhakti-śāstra point one in the perfect direction because the Supreme Personality of Godhead says in Bhagavad-gītā, bhaktyā mām abhijānāti: \"Only by devotional service am I to be known.\" The bhaktas know that the Supreme Person has no material form, whereas the jñānīs simply deny the material form. One should therefore take shelter of the bhakti-mārga, the path of devotion; then everything will be clear. Jñānīs concentrate on the virāṭa-rūpa, the gigantic universal form of the Lord. This is a good system in the beginning for those who are extremely materialistic, but there is no need to think continuously of the virāṭa-rūpa. When Arjuna was shown the virāṭa-rūpa of Kṛṣṇa, he saw it, but he did not want to see it perpetually. He therefore requested the Lord to return to His original form as two-armed Kṛṣṇa. In conclusion, learned scholars find no contradictions in the devotees' concentration upon the spiritual form of the Lord (īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ).

As a small boy He lifted Govardhana Hill and in His childhood He killed many demons. Such activities are very attractive, and therefore He is sometimes called Giridhārī, Madhusūdana, Agha-niṣūdana and so on. Because He acted as the son of Nanda Mahārāja, He is called Nanda-tanuja.

An ordinary man may be a great philosopher and may speculate upon what the Absolute Truth is, what His form is and where He is existing, but he cannot understand these truths. Sevonmukhe hi jihvādau svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ: one can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead only through devotional service.

The Māyāvādī philosopher thinks that there is only one Supreme Truth and that he is also that Supreme Truth. Actually this is not knowledge but foolishness, and this verse is especially meant for such fools, whose knowledge has been stolen by illusion (māyayāpahṛta jñānāḥ). Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that such persons, jñāni-māninaḥ, think themselves very advanced, but actually they are unintelligent.", + "In regard to this verse, Śrīla Madhvācārya says:", + "svadeha-sthaṁ hariṁ prāhur

The lowest (adhama) think that there is no difference between God and the living entity except that the living entity is under designations whereas the Absolute Truth has no designations. In their opinion, as soon as the designations of the material body are dissolved, the jīva, the living entity, will mix with the Supreme. They give the argument of ghaṭākāśa-paṭākāśa, in which the body is compared to a pot with the sky within and the sky without. When the pot breaks, the sky inside becomes one with the sky outside, and so the impersonalists say that the living being becomes one with the Supreme. This is their argument, but Śrīla Madhvācārya says that such an argument is put forward by the lowest class of men. Another class of men cannot ascertain what the actual form of the Supreme is, but they agree that there is a Supreme who controls the activities of the ordinary living being. Such philosophers are accepted as mediocre. The best, however. are those who understand the Supreme Lord (sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha). Pūrṇānandādi-guṇakaṁ sarva jīva-vilakṣaṇam: His form is completely spiritual, full of bliss, and completely distinct from that of the conditioned soul or any other living entity. Uttamās tu hariṁ prāhus tāratamyena teṣu ca: such philosophers are the best because they know that the Supreme Personality of Godhead reveals Himself differently to worshipers in various modes of material nature. They know that there are thirty-three million demigods just to convince the conditioned soul that there is a supreme power and to induce him to agree to worship one of these demigods so that by the association of devotees he may be able to understand that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As Lord Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā, mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyāt kiñcid asti dhanañjaya: \"There is no truth superior to Me.\" Aham ādir hi devānām: \"I am the origin of all the demigods.\" Ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ: \"I am superior to everyone, even Lord Brahmā, Lord Śiva and the other demigods.\" These are the conclusions of the śāstra, and one who accepts these conclusions should be considered a first-class philosopher.

In His hands He held a disc, conchshell, sword, shield, arrow, bow, rope and club—in each hand a different weapon, all brilliantly shining. His garments were yellow and His bodily hue deep bluish. His eyes and face were very cheerful, and from His neck to His feet hung a long garland of flowers. His chest was decorated with the Kaustubha jewel and the mark of Śrīvatsa. On His head was a gorgeous round helmet, and His ears were decorated with earrings resembling sharks. All these ornaments were uncommonly beautiful. The Lord wore a golden belt on His waist, bracelets on His arms, rings on His fingers, and ankle bells on His feet.

Here the Lord says to Dakṣa, \"You desire to benefit all living entities, and that is also My desire.\" The living entities who come in contact with the material world are meant to be corrected. All the living entities within this material world have revolted against the service of the Lord, and therefore they remain within this material world as ever-conditioned, nitya-baddha, taking birth again and again. There is a chance, of course, of their being liberated, but nevertheless the conditioned souls, not taking advantage of this opportunity, continue in a life of sense enjoyment, and thus they are punished by birth and death again and again.

Similarly, when the spiritual master trains the conditioned souls to become Kṛṣṇa conscious, his position is successful. If one gives the conditioned souls a chance to become Kṛṣṇa conscious, all his activities are approved by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is extremely pleased, as stated here (prīto 'ham). Following the examples of the previous ācāryas, all the members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement should try to benefit the conditioned souls by inducing them to become Kṛṣṇa conscious and giving them all facilities to do so.

Indulgence in sense enjoyment through sexual intercourse is not allowed by the Vedic principles. One may follow the natural tendency for sex life only to beget children. Therefore the Lord told Dakṣa in this verse, \"This girl is offered to you only for sex life to beget children, not for any other purpose. She is very fertile, and therefore you will be able to have as many children as you can beget.\"", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura remarks in this connection that Dakṣa was given the facility for unlimited sexual intercourse. In Dakṣa's previous life he was also known as Dakṣa, but in the course of performing sacrifices he offended Lord Śiva, and thus his head was replaced with that of a goat.

In this connection it may be noted that if the American boys and girls engaged in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement want to advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness to achieve the supreme benefit of loving service to the Lord, they should refrain from indulging in this facility for sex life. Therefore we advise that one should at least refrain from illicit sex. Even if there are opportunities for sex life, one should voluntarily accept the limitation of having sex only for progeny, not for any other purpose. Kardama Muni was also given the facility for sex life, but he had only a slight desire for it. Therefore after begetting children in the womb of Devahūti, Kardama Muni became completely renounced. The purport is that if one wants to return home, back to Godhead, one should voluntarily refrain from sex life. Sex should be accepted only as much as needed, not unlimitedly.", + "One should not think that Dakṣa received the favor of the Lord by receiving the facilities for unlimited sex. Later verses will reveal that Dakṣa again committed an offense, this time at the lotus feet of Nārada. Therefore although sex life is the topmost enjoyment in the material world and although one may have an opportunity for sexual enjoyment by the grace of God, this entails a risk of committing offenses.

For example, in the Buddhist śāstras Lord Buddha advises that one achieve nirvāṇa by giving up the materialistic way of life. In the Bible, which is also śāstra, one will find the same advice: one should cease materialistic life and return to the kingdom of God. In any śāstra one may examine, especially the Vedic śāstra, the same advice is given: one should give up his materialistic life and return to his original, spiritual life.

In human society, however, if one is satisfied with his material father and mother and their instructions and does not make further progress by accepting a spiritual master and being educated in the śāstras, he certainly remains in darkness. The material father and mother are important only if they are interested in educating their son to become free from the clutches of death.

A parent who does not know how to save his son has no value because such fathers and mothers may be had in any form of life, even among the cats, dogs and so on. Only a father and mother who can elevate their son to the spiritual platform are bona fide parents.

As soon as he strokes the strings, all the devotees begin responding, making a very beautiful vibration. Accompanied by the stringed instrument, the singing seems like a shower of nectar, and all the devotees dance in ecstasy to the fullest extent of their satisfaction. While dancing, they appear madly intoxicated with ecstasy, as if drinking the beverage called mādhurī-pūra. Some of them cry, some of them dance, and some of them, although unable to dance publicly, dance within their hearts. Lord Śiva embraces Nārada Muni and begins talking in an ecstatic voice, and seeing Lord Śiva dancing with Nārada, Lord Brahmā also joins, saying, \"All of you kindly chant 'Hari bol! Hari bol!' \" The King of heaven, Indra, also gradually joins with great satisfaction and begins dancing and chanting \"Hari bol! Hari bol!\" In this way, by the influence of the transcendental vibration of the holy name of God, the whole universe becomes ecstatic. Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura says, \"When the universe becomes ecstatic, my desire is satisfied. I therefore pray unto the lotus feet of Rūpa Gosvāmī that this chanting of harer nāma may go on nicely like this.\"", + "Lord Brahmā is the guru of Nārada Muni, who is the guru of Vyāsadeva, and Vyāsadeva is the guru of Madhvācārya. Thus the Gauḍīya-Mādhva-sampradāya is in the disciplic succession from Nārada Muni. The members of this disciplic succession—in other words, the members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement—should follow in the footsteps of Nārada Muni by chanting the transcendental vibration Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. They should go everywhere to deliver the fallen souls by vibrating the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, and the instructions of Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Caitanya-caritāmṛta. That will please the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One can spiritually advance if one actually follows the instructions of Nārada Muni.

Of course, Prajāpati Dakṣa did not make propaganda against Nārada Muni, but later, as we shall see, Dakṣa cursed Nārada Muni for his benevolent activities. This is the way of materialistic life. A materialistic father and mother want to engage their sons in begetting children, striving for improved economic conditions, and rotting in materialistic life. They are not unhappy when their children become spoiled, useless citizens, but they lament when they join the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement to achieve the ultimate goal of life. This animosity between parents and the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has existed since time immemorial. Even Nārada Muni was condemned, not to speak of others.

Prajāpati Dakṣa was certainly a sādhu because he had executed such great austerities that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Viṣṇu, had appeared before him. Nevertheless, he had a fault-finding mentality. He improperly thought Nārada Muni to be asādhu, or nonsaintly, because Nārada had foiled his intentions. Desiring to train his sons to become gṛhasthas fully equipped with knowledge, Dakṣa had sent them to execute austerities by Nārāyaṇa-saras. Nārada Muni, however, taking advantage of their highly elevated position in austerity, instructed them to become Vaiṣṇavas in the renounced order. This is the duty of Nārada Muni and his followers. They must show everyone the path of renouncing this material world and returning home, back to Godhead. Prajāpati Dakṣa, however, could not see the exaltedness of the duties Nārada Muni performed in relation to his sons. Unable to appreciate Nārada Muni's behavior, Dakṣa accused Nārada of being asādhu.", + "The words bhikṣor mārga, \"the path of the renounced order,\" are very significant in this regard. A sannyāsī is called tridaṇḍi-bhikṣu because his duty is to beg alms from the homes of gṛhasthas and to give the gṛhasthas spiritual instructions. A sannyāsī is allowed to beg from door to door, but a gṛhastha cannot do so. Gṛhasthas may earn their living according to the four divisions of spiritual life. A brāhmaṇa gṛhastha may earn his livelihood by becoming a learned scholar and teaching people in general how to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He may also assume the duty of worship himself. Therefore it is said that only brāhmaṇas may engage in Deity worship, and they may accept as prasāda whatever people offer the Deity. Although a brāhmaṇa may sometimes accept charity, it is not for his personal maintenance but for the worship of the Deity. Thus a brāhmaṇa does not stock anything for his future use. Similarly, kṣatriyas may collect taxes from the citizens, and they must also protect the citizens, enforce rules and regulations, and maintain law and order. Vaiśyas should earn their livelihood through agriculture and cow protection, and śūdras should maintain their livelihood by serving the three higher classes. Unless one becomes a brāhmaṇa, one cannot take sannyāsa. Sannyāsīs and brahmacārīs may beg alms door to door, but a gṛhastha cannot.", + "Prajāpati Dakṣa condemned Nārada Muni because Nārada, a brahmacārī who could beg from door to door, had made sannyāsīs of Dakṣa's sons, who were being trained to be gṛhasthas. Dakṣa was extremely angry at Nārada because he thought that Nārada had done him a great injustice. According to Dakṣa's opinion, Nārada Muni had misled Dakṣa's inexperienced sons (asādhv akāry arbhakāṇām). Dakṣa regarded his sons as innocent boys who had been misled when Nārada showed them the renounced order of life. Because of all these considerations, Prajāpati Dakṣa charged that Nārada Muni was asādhu and should not have adopted the dress of a sādhu.", + "Sometimes a saintly person is misunderstood by gṛhasthas, especially when he instructs their young sons to accept Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Generally a gṛhastha thinks that unless one enters gṛhastha life he cannot properly enter the renounced order. If a young man immediately adopts the path of the renounced order in accordance with the instructions of Nārada or a member of his disciplic succession, his parents become very angry. This same phenomenon is occurring in our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement because we are instructing all the young boys in the Western countries to follow the path of renunciation. We allow gṛhastha life, but a gṛhastha also follows the path of renunciation. Even a gṛhastha has to give up so many bad habits that his parents think his life has been practically destroyed. We allow no meat-eating, no illicit sex, no gambling and no intoxication, and consequently the parents wonder how, if there are so many no's, one's life can be positive. In the Western countries especially, these four prohibited activities practically constitute the life and soul of the modern population. Therefore parents sometimes dislike our movement, just as Prajāpati Dakṣa disliked the activities of Nārada and accused Nārada of dishonesty. Nevertheless, although parents may be angry at us, we must perform our duty without hesitation because we are in the disciplic succession from Nārada Muni.", + "People addicted to householder life wonder how one can give up the enjoyment of gṛhastha life, which is a concession for sex enjoyment, simply to become a mendicant in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. They do not know that the householder's concession for sex life cannot be regulated unless one accepts the life of a mendicant. The Vedic civilization therefore enjoins that at the end of one's fiftieth year one must give up household life. This is compulsory.

Since Dakṣa's sons had not liberated themselves from these three debts, how could Nārada Muni have led them to the renounced order of life?

Even if one does not repay his debts, he is freed from all debts if he renounces the material world for the sake of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, whose lotus feet are the shelter of everyone. This is the verdict of the śāstra. Therefore Nārada Muni was completely right in instructing the sons of Prajāpati Dakṣa to renounce this material world immediately and take shelter of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Unfortunately, Prajāpati Dakṣa, the father of the Haryaśvas and Savalāśvas, did not understand the great service rendered by Nārada Muni. Dakṣa therefore addressed him as pāpa (the personality of sinful activities) and asādhu (a nonsaintly person). Since Nārada Muni was a great saint and Vaiṣṇava, he tolerated all such accusations from Prajāpati Dakṣa.

A yogī, however, especially a bhakti-yogī, is callous to the opinions of this material world. He is not interested in traveling to the higher planetary systems of the demigods to enjoy a long life in an advanced materialistic civilization.

Since Prajāpati Dakṣa was a karmī, he could not appreciate the great service Nārada Muni had rendered his eleven thousand sons. Instead, he accused Nārada Muni of being sinful and charged that because Nārada Muni was associated with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the Lord would also be defamed.

Such enlightened renunciation is desirable. One should enter the renounced order with full knowledge (jñāna-vairāgya), for the perfection of life is possible for one who renounces this material world in that way.

If my young disciples, especially those who have taken sannyāsa, take charge of traveling all over the world, it may be possible for me to transfer the curse of the parents to these young preachers. Then I may sit down conveniently in one place for the work of translation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/05/verses/44.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/05/verses/44.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e9f648ad --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/05/verses/44.json @@ -0,0 +1,92 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 44, + "reference": "SB 6.5.44", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nप्रतिजग्राह तद्बाढं नारदः साधुसम्मतः\nएतावान्साधुवादो हि तितिक्षेतेश्वरः स्वयम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\npratijagrāha tad bāḍhaṁ\nnāradaḥ sādhu-sammataḥ\netāvān sādhu-vādo hi\ntitikṣeteśvaraḥ svayam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratijagrāha", + "meanings": [ + "accepted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bāḍham", + "meanings": [ + "so be it" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāradaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Nārada Muni" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhu-sammataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who is an approved sādhu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etāvān", + "meanings": [ + "this much" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhu-vādaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "appropriate for a saintly person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "titikṣeta", + "meanings": [ + "he may tolerate" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "although able to curse Prajāpati Dakṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "himself." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: My dear King, since Nārada Muni is an approved saintly person, when cursed by Prajāpati Dakṣa he replied, tad bāḍham: \"Yes, what you have said is good.

Indeed, a preacher must face many impediments. Not only is he sometimes cursed, but sometimes he must also suffer personal injury. For example, when Nityānanda Prabhu went to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness to the two roguish brothers Jagāi and Mādhāi, they injured Him and made His head bleed, but nevertheless, He tolerantly delivered the two rogues, who became perfect Vaiṣṇavas. This is the duty of a preacher. Lord Jesus Christ even tolerated crucifixion. Therefore the curse against Nārada was not very astonishing, and he tolerated it.", + "Now, it may be asked why Nārada Muni stayed in the presence of Prajāpati Dakṣa and tolerated all his accusations and curses. Was that for Dakṣa's deliverance? The answer is yes. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that after being insulted by Prajāpati Dakṣa, Nārada Muni should have left immediately, but he purposely stayed to hear all Dakṣa's strong words so that Dakṣa might be relieved of his anger. Prajāpati Dakṣa was not an ordinary man; he had accumulated the results of many pious activities. Therefore Nārada Muni expected that after delivering his curse, Dakṣa, satisfied and freed from anger, would repent his misbehavior and thus get a chance to become a Vaiṣṇava and be delivered. When Jagāi and Mādhāi offended Lord Nityānanda, Lord Nityānanda stood tolerantly, and therefore both brothers fell at His lotus feet and repented. Consequently they later became perfect Vaiṣṇavas." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/06/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/06/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1b8fe844 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/06/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 6.6.1", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nततः प्राचेतसो ऽसिक्न्याम् अनुनीतः स्वयम्भुवा\nषष्टिं संजनयाम् आस दुहितेः᳙ पितृवत्सलाः", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\ntataḥ prācetaso 'siknyām\nanunītaḥ svayambhuvā\nṣaṣṭiṁ sañjanayām āsa\nduhitèḥ pitṛ-vatsalāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "after that incident" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prācetasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Dakṣa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asiknyām", + "meanings": [ + "in his wife named Asiknī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anunītaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "pacified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayambhuvā", + "meanings": [ + "by Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṣaṣṭim", + "meanings": [ + "sixty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sañjanayām āsa", + "meanings": [ + "begot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duhitèḥ", + "meanings": [ + "daughters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitṛ-vatsalāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all very affectionate to their father." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: My dear King, thereafter, at the request of Lord Brahmā, Prajāpati Dakṣa, who is known as Prācetasa, begot sixty daughters in the womb of his wife Asiknī.

Bṛhaspati, the best of the sages, was the spiritual master of Indra and the demigods and was respected by the demigods and demons alike.

All I want, life after life, is to be a faithful servant of Your Lordship.\" According to the laws of nature, when one is extremely opulent one becomes degraded, and this is true both individually and collectively. The demigods are situated in the mode of goodness, but sometimes even one who is situated in such an exalted position as King Indra, the king of all the demigods, falls down because of material opulence. We are now actually seeing this in America. The entire American nation has tried to advance in material opulence without striving to produce ideal human beings. The result is that Americans are now regretting the wholesale criminality of American society and are wondering how America has become so lawless and unmanageable. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (7.5.31), na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ hi viṣṇum: persons who are unenlightened do not know the aim of life, which is to return home, back to Godhead. Therefore, both individually and collectively, they try to enjoy so-called material comforts, and they become addicted to wine and women. The men produced in such a society are less than fourth class.

They must divide their society into first-class men, second-class men, third-class men and fourth-class men. Since they are now creating only men who are less than fourth class, how can they avoid the dangers of a criminal society? Long, long ago, Lord Indra regretted his disrespect to his spiritual master, Bṛhaspati. Similarly, it is advised that the American people regret their mistaken advancement in civilization.

There are many examples of how he should act. When Lord Kṛṣṇa was sitting on His throne and Nārada fortunately entered His assembly, even Lord Kṛṣṇa immediately stood up with His officers and ministers to offer respectful obeisances to Nārada. Nārada knew that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and Kṛṣṇa knew that Nārada was His devotee, but although Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Lord and Nārada is the Lord's devotee, the Lord observed the religious etiquette. Since Nārada was a brahmacārī, a brāhmaṇa and an exalted devotee, even Kṛṣṇa, while acting as a king, offered His respectful obeisances unto Nārada. Such is the conduct visible in the Vedic civilization. A civilization in which the people do not know how the representative of Nārada and Kṛṣṇa should be respected, how society should be formed and how one should advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness—a society concerned only with manufacturing new cars and new skyscrapers every year and then breaking them to pieces and making new ones—may be technologically advanced, but it is not a human civilization. A human civilization is advanced when its people follow the cātur-varṇya system, the system of four orders of life. There must be ideal, first-class men to act as advisors, second-class men to act as administrators, third-class men to produce food and protect cows, and fourth-class men who obey the three higher classes of society. One who does not follow the standard system of society should be considered a fifth-class man. A society without Vedic laws and regulations will not be very helpful to humanity.

To be elevated to the stage of perfection, humanity must first give up false leaders who present boats of stone. All of human society is in such a dangerous position that to be rescued it must abide by the standard instructions of the Vedas. The cream of these instructions appears in the form of Bhagavad-gītā. One should not take shelter of any other instructions, for Bhagavad-gītā gives direct instructions on how to fulfill the aim of human life. Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa therefore says, sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja: \"Give up all other processes of religion and simply surrender to Me.\" Even if one does not accept Lord Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, His instructions are so exalted and beneficial for humanity that if one follows His instructions one will be saved. Otherwise one will be cheated by unauthorized meditation and gymnastic methods of yoga. Thus one will board a boat of stone, which will sink and drown all its passengers. Unfortunately, although the American people are extremely eager to get out of materialistic chaos, they are sometimes found to patronize the makers of stone boats. That will not help them. They must take the proper boat offered by Kṛṣṇa in the form of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Then they will be easily saved.

The demigods explained that this should not be a cause for hesitation; he could become their priest because he was advanced in Vedic knowledge. Similarly, Cāṇakya Paṇḍita advises, nīcād apy uttamaṁ jñānam: one may accept education from a member of a lower social order. The brāhmaṇas, the members of the most elevated varṇa, are teachers, but a person in a lower family, such as a family of kṣatriyas, vaiśyas or even śūdras, may be accepted as a teacher if he has knowledge. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu approved of this when He expressed this opinion before Rāmānanda Rāya (Cc. Madhya 8.128):", + "kibā vipra, kibā nyāsī, śūdra kene naya

Unfortunately, because of Kali-yuga, foolish people do not surrender to the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa. Even most people who claim to belong to the Vedic system of religion are actually opposed to the Vedic principles. Every day they manufacture a new type of dharma on the plea that whatever one manufactures is also a path of liberation. Atheistic men generally say, yata mata tata patha. According to this view, there are hundreds and thousands of different opinions in human society, and each opinion is a valid religious principle.

When the Lord comes to punish the demons, He bestows His favor upon them, and similarly when He delivers His devotees and gives them relief, He also bestows His favor. Thus the Lord bestows His favor equally upon the conditioned souls. When a conditioned soul gives relief to others he acts piously, and when he gives trouble to others he acts impiously, but the Lord is neither pious nor impious; He is always full in His spiritual potency, by which He shows equal mercy to the punishable and the protectable.

When Kṛṣṇa was present on this earth, He killed many inimical nondevotees, but they all received sārūpya; in other words, they returned to their original spiritual bodies.

A brāhmaṇa is one who knows Brahman, the Absolute Truth, and who thus knows his real interest. A kṛpaṇa, however, is one who has a material, bodily concept of life. Not knowing how to utilize his human or demigod life, a kṛpaṇa is attracted by things created by the material modes of nature. The kṛpaṇas, who always desire material benefits, are foolish, whereas brāhmaṇas, who always desire spiritual benefits, are intelligent. If a kṛpaṇa, not knowing his self-interest, foolishly asks for something material, one who awards it to him is also foolish. Kṛṣṇa, however, is not a foolish person; He is supremely intelligent. If someone comes to Kṛṣṇa asking for material benefits, Kṛṣṇa does not award him the material things he desires. Instead, the Lord gives him intelligence so that he will forget his material desires and become attached to the Lord's lotus feet. In such cases, although the kṛpaṇa offers prayers to Lord Kṛṣṇa for material things, the Lord takes away whatever material possessions the kṛpaṇa has and gives him the sense to become a devotee.

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura comments in this regard that if a foolish child requests his mother to give him poison, the mother, being intelligent, will certainly not give him poison, even though he requests it. A materialist does not know that to accept material possessions means to accept poison, or the repetition of birth and death.

Unfortunately, at the present moment so-called philanthropists and humanitarians advocate the happiness of humanity at the cost of the lives of poor animals. That is not recommended herein. This verse clearly says that one should be compassionate to all living entities.

Every living being is actually a spirit soul, a part and parcel of God. Therefore one should not favor only one kind of living being. A Vaiṣṇava sees all living entities as part and parcel of God.

Dhṛtarāṣṭra analytically divided his gross material body into the five different elements of which it was made—earth, water, fire, air and ether—and distributed them to the different reservoirs of these elements; in other words, he merged these five elements into the original mahat-tattva. By identifying his material conception of life, he gradually separated his spirit soul from material connections and placed himself at the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The example given in this connection is that when an earthen pot is broken, the small portion of the sky within the pot is united with the large sky outside the pot. Māyāvādī philosophers misunderstand this description of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Therefore Śrī Rāmānuja Svāmī, in his book Vedānta-tattva-sāra, has described that this merging of the soul means that after separating himself from the material body made of eight elements—earth, water, fire, air, ether, false ego, mind and intelligence—the individual soul engages himself in devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His eternal form (īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ/ anādir ādir govindaḥ sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam). The material cause of the material elements absorbs the material body, and the spiritual soul assumes its original position. As described by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa': the constitutional position of the living entity is that he is the eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa. When one overcomes the material body through cultivation of spiritual knowledge and devotional service, one can revive his own position and thus engage in the service of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/10/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/10/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..70ed1ef1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/10/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 6.10.12", + "devanagari": "यताक्षासुमनोबुद्धिस्तत्त्वदृग्ध्वस्तबन्धनः\nआस्थितः परमं योगं न देहं बुबुधे गतम्", + "transliteration": "yatākṣāsu-mano-buddhis\ntattva-dṛg dhvasta-bandhanaḥ\nāsthitaḥ paramaṁ yogaṁ\nna dehaṁ bubudhe gatam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yata", + "meanings": [ + "controlled" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṣa", + "meanings": [ + "senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asu", + "meanings": [ + "the life air" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "buddhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tattva-dṛk", + "meanings": [ + "one who knows the tattvas, the material and spiritual energies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhvasta-bandhanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "liberated from bondage" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsthitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being situated in" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paramam", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogam", + "meanings": [ + "absorption, trance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deham", + "meanings": [ + "the material body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bubudhe", + "meanings": [ + "perceived" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatam", + "meanings": [ + "left." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Dadhīci Muni controlled his senses, life force, mind and intelligence and became absorbed in trance.

The Lord was actually more favorable to Vṛtrāsura because after being killed by Indra's thunderbolt, Vṛtrāsura would go back to Godhead, whereas the victorious Indra would rot in this material world. Because both of them were devotees, the Lord awarded them the respective benedictions they wanted. Vṛtrāsura never wanted material possessions, for he knew very well the nature of such possessions. To accumulate material possessions, one must labor very hard, and when he gets them he creates many enemies because this material world is always full of rivalry. If one becomes rich, his friends or relatives are envious. For ekānta-bhaktas, unalloyed devotees, Kṛṣṇa therefore never provides material possessions. A devotee sometimes needs some material possessions for preaching, but the possessions of a preacher are not like those of a karmī. A karmī's possessions are achieved as a result of karma, but those of a devotee are arranged by the Supreme Personality of Godhead just to facilitate his devotional activities. Because a devotee never uses material possessions for any purpose other than the service of the Lord, the possessions of a devotee are not to be compared to those of a karmī." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/11/verses/23.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/11/verses/23.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..301566e1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/11/verses/23.json @@ -0,0 +1,105 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 23, + "reference": "SB 6.11.23", + "devanagari": "त्रैवर्गिकायासविघातम् अस्मत्पतिर्विधत्ते पुरुषस्य शक्र\nततो ऽनुमेयो भगवत्प्रसादो यो दुर्लभो ऽकिंचनगोचरो ऽन्यैः", + "transliteration": "trai-vargikāyāsa-vighātam asmat-\npatir vidhatte puruṣasya śakra\ntato 'numeyo bhagavat-prasādo\nyo durlabho 'kiñcana-gocaro 'nyaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "trai-vargika", + "meanings": [ + "for the three objectives, namely religiosity, economic development, and satisfaction of the senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āyāsa", + "meanings": [ + "of endeavor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vighātam", + "meanings": [ + "the ruin" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asmat", + "meanings": [ + "our" + ] + }, + { + "word": "patiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidhatte", + "meanings": [ + "performs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣasya", + "meanings": [ + "of a devotee" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śakra", + "meanings": [ + "O Indra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whereby" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anumeyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "to be inferred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavat-prasādaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the special mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durlabhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very difficult to obtain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akiñcana-gocaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "within the reach of the unalloyed devotees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by others, who aspire for material happiness." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Our Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, forbids His devotees to endeavor uselessly for religion, economic development and sense gratification.

Now let me return home, back to Godhead.\" Thus he stopped all his bodily activities and became situated in trance. Taking advantage of the silence of Vṛtrāsura's body, Indra pierced the demon's abdomen, and because of Vṛtrāsura's trance, Indra was able to come out. Now, Vṛtrāsura was in yoga-samadhi, and therefore although King Indra wanted to cut his throat, the demon's neck was so stiff that Indra's thunderbolt took 360 days to cut it to pieces.

A child begotten by a śūdra in the womb of the daughter of a kṣatriya is called a kṣattā. A child begotten by a kṣatriya in the womb of a lower-class woman is called a śvāda, or dog-eater.

Simply desiring mukti, or liberation, is insufficient; one must become factually liberated. When one understands the futility of the materialistic way of life, one becomes advanced in knowledge, and therefore he situates himself in the vānaprastha order, unattached to family, wife and children. One should then further progress to the platform of sannyāsa, the actual renounced order, never to fall again and be afflicted by materialistic life. Even though one desires to be liberated, this does not mean he is liberated. Only rarely is someone liberated. Indeed, although many men take sannyāsa to become liberated, because of their imperfections they again become attached to women, material activities, social welfare work and so on.", + "Jñānīs, yogīs and karmīs devoid of devotional service are called offenders. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu says, māyāvādī kṛṣṇe aparādhī: one who thinks that everything is māyā instead of thinking that everything is Kṛṣṇa is called an aparādhī, or offender. Although the Māyāvādīs, impersonalists, are offenders at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, they may nonetheless be counted among the siddhas, those who have realized the self. They may be considered nearer to spiritual perfection because at least they have realized what spiritual life is. If such a person becomes nārāyaṇa-parāyaṇa, a devotee of Lord Nārāyaṇa, he is better than a jīvan-mukta, one who is liberated or perfect. This requires higher intelligence.", + "There are two kinds of jñānīs. One is inclined to devotional service and the other to impersonal realization. Impersonalists generally undergo great endeavor for no tangible benefit, and therefore it is said that they are husking paddy that has no grain (sthūla-tuṣāvaghātinaḥ). The other class of jñānīs, whose jñāna is mixed with bhakti, are also of two kinds—those who are devoted to the so-called false form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and those who understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead as sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, the actual spiritual form. The Māyāvādī devotees worship Nārāyaṇa or Viṣṇu with the idea that Viṣṇu has accepted a form of māyā and that the ultimate truth is actually impersonal. The pure devotee, however, never thinks that Viṣṇu has accepted a body of māyā; instead, he knows perfectly well that the original Absolute Truth is the Supreme Person. Such a devotee is actually situated in knowledge. He never merges in the Brahman effulgence. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.2.32):", + "ye 'nye 'ravindākṣa vimukta-māninas

There is no distinction between Kṛṣṇa's body and His soul, but because less intelligent men see Kṛṣṇa as a human being, they deride Him. They cannot imagine how a person like Kṛṣṇa could be the origin of everything (govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi). Such persons are described as moghāśāḥ, baffled in their hopes.

Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu is situated in every universe in a special planet called Śvetadvīpa. This is confirmed in the Brahma-saṁhitā: aṇḍāntara-stha. The word aṇḍa means this universe.

They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed.\" In the conditioned state of life, the body is used as our dress, and as one needs different dresses during the summer and winter, we conditioned souls are changing bodies according to our desires. However, because the body of the Supreme Lord is full of knowledge, it needs no covering. The idea that Kṛṣṇa's body is like ours—in other words, that His body and soul are different—is a misunderstanding. There are no such differences for Kṛṣṇa, because His body is full of knowledge. Here we receive material bodies because of a lack of knowledge, but because Kṛṣṇa, Vāsudeva, is full of knowledge, there is no difference between His body and His soul. Kṛṣṇa remembers what He said forty million years ago to the sun-god, but an ordinary being cannot remember what he said the day before yesterday. This is the difference between Kṛṣṇa's body and our body. Therefore the Lord is addressed as vijñāna-mātrāya paramānanda-mūrtaye.", + "Because the Lord's body is full of knowledge, He always enjoys transcendental bliss. Indeed, His very form is paramānanda. This is confirmed in the Vedānta-sūtra: ānandamayo 'bhyāsāt. By nature the Lord is ānandamaya. Whenever we see Kṛṣṇa, He is always full of ānanda in all circumstances. No one can make Him morose. Ātmārāmāya: He does not need to search for external enjoyment, because He is self-sufficient. Śāntāya: He has no anxiety. One who has to seek pleasure from other sources is always full of anxiety. Karmīs, jñānīs and yogīs are full of anxiety because they want something, but a devotee does not want anything; he is simply satisfied in the service of the Lord, who is fully blissful.", + "Nivṛtta-dvaita-dṛṣṭaye: in our conditioned life our bodies have different parts, but although Kṛṣṇa apparently has different bodily parts, no part of His body is different from any other part.

A living entity cannot exist without desires, but desires that can never be fulfilled are called kāma, lusty desires. Kāmais tais tair hṛta jñānāḥ: because of lusty desires, nondevotees are deprived of their intelligence. Thus they are unable to conquer the Supreme Lord, whereas devotees, being freed from such unreasonable desires, can conquer the Lord. Such devotees are also conquered by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Because they are pure, being free from all material desires, they fully surrender to the Supreme Lord, and therefore the Lord conquers them. Such devotees never aspire for liberation. They simply desire to serve the lotus feet of the Lord. Because they serve the Lord without desires for remuneration, they can conquer the mercy of the Lord. The Lord is by nature very merciful, and when He sees that His servant is working without desires for material profit, naturally He is conquered.", + "Devotees are always engaged in service.", + "sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayor

Furthermore, the ingredients to manufacture wonderful machines like airplanes are also supplied by the Lord, not by the scientists. Before the airplane was created, its ingredients already existed, having been caused by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but when the manifested creation of the airplane is ruined, the remaining debris is a problem for the so-called creators. Another example is that the West is creating many automobiles. The ingredients for these cars are supplied, of course, by the Supreme Lord, and the intelligence for the so-called creation is also supplied by the Lord. Ultimately, when the cars are demolished, the so-called creators are faced with the problem of what to do with their ingredients. The actual creator, the original creator, is the Personality of Godhead. Only in the interim does someone create something with intelligence supplied by the Lord, and later the creation again becomes a problem.

Such activities are called vikarma.", + "All material activities are actually illusory, and progress in illusion is simply a waste of time.

He gives the living entity the intelligence with which to improve his position so that he may return home, back to Godhead, or if he does not want to go back to Godhead, the Lord gives him the intelligence with which to improve his material position. This is confirmed by the Lord Himself in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15). Sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca: \"I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness.\" From within, the Lord gives the living being the intelligence with which to work.

In His eternal, blissful form, Lord Kṛṣṇa is accepted by Arjuna as paraṁ brahma. A living entity in the conditioned stage accepts something illusory as substantial. This is called māyā or avidyā—ignorance. Therefore according to the Vedic knowledge, one must become a devotee, and one must then distinguish between avidyā and vidyā, which are elaborately explained in the Īśopaniṣad. When one is actually on the platform of vidyā, he can personally understand the Personality of Godhead in His forms like those of Lord Rāma, Lord Kṛṣṇa and Saṅkarṣaṇa. The Vedic knowledge is described as the breathing of the Supreme Lord, and activities begin on the basis of Vedic knowledge. Therefore the Lord says that when He endeavors or breathes, the material universes come into existence, and various activities gradually develop. The Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā, praṇavaḥ sarva-vedeṣu: \"I am the syllable oṁ in all the Vedic mantras.\" Vedic knowledge begins with the vibration of the transcendental sound praṇava, oṁkāra. The same transcendental sound is Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare.

The living entities wrongly consider the physical elements to be resources meant for their enjoyment, and they think themselves to be the enjoyers. However, neither of them is independent; they are both energies of the Lord. The original cause for the material energy and spiritual energy is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. However, although the expansion of the Lord's energies is the original cause, one should not think that the Lord Himself has expanded in different ways.

Similarly, as one has subtle dreams at night, when the living entity is awake he lives in gross dreams of nation, community, society, possessions, skyscrapers, bank balance, position and honor. Under the circumstances, one should know that his position is due to his contact with the material world. One is situated in different positions in various forms of life that are all but creations of the illusory energy, which works under the direction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore the Supreme Lord is the ultimate actor, and the conditioned living entity should simply remember this original actor, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. As living entities, we are being carried away by the waves of prakṛti, or nature, which works under the Lord's direction (mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sa-carācaram). Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura sings, (miche) māyāra vaśe, yāccha bhese', khāccha hābuḍubu, bhāi: \"Why are you being carried away by the waves of the illusory energy in various phases of dreaming and wakefulness? These are all creations of māyā.\" Our only duty is to remember the supreme director of this illusory energy—Kṛṣṇa. For us to do this, the śāstra advises us, harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam: one should constantly chant the holy name of the Lord—Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare.

One who realizes Bhagavān—the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa—is the most perfect mahātmā (vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ). In the human form of life, one should understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead, for then one will understand everything else. Yasmin vijñāte sarvam evaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavati. According to this Vedic injunction, simply by understanding Kṛṣṇa one understands Brahman, Paramātmā, prakṛti, the illusory energy, the spiritual energy and everything else. Everything will be revealed. Prakṛti, the material nature, is working under the direction of the Supreme Lord, and we living entities are being carried away by various phases of prakṛti. For self-realization, one should always remember Kṛṣṇa. As stated in Padma Purāṇa, smartavyaḥ satataṁ viṣṇuḥ: we should always remember Lord Viṣṇu.

Chāḍiyā vaiṣṇava-sevā nistāra pāyeche kebā: without serving a servant of Kṛṣṇa, one cannot be elevated to being a servant of Kṛṣṇa Himself. Therefore mother Pārvatī spoke to Citraketu exactly like a mother who says to her naughty child, \"My dear child, I am punishing you so that you won't do anything like this again.\" This tendency of a mother to punish her child is found even in mother Yaśodā, who became the mother of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Mother Yaśodā punished Kṛṣṇa by binding Him and showing Him a stick. Thus it is the duty of a mother to chastise her beloved son, even in the case of the Supreme Lord.

Indeed, he is beyond karma. The Brahma-saṁhitā says, karmāṇi nirdahati kintu ca bhakti-bhājām: a devotee is free from the reactions of his karma because he has taken to devotional service. This same principle is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (14.26). Sa guṇān samatītyaitān brahma-bhūyāya kalpate: one who is engaged in devotional service has already been freed from the reactions of his material karma, and thus he immediately becomes brahma-bhūta, or transcendental.

A devotee is always eager to return home, back to Godhead, and remain there as the Lord's associate. This ambition becomes increasingly fervent in his heart, and therefore he does not care about material changes in his life. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura comments that Mahārāja Citraketu's being cursed by Pārvatī should be considered the mercy of the Lord. The Lord wanted Citraketu to return to Godhead as soon as possible, and therefore he terminated all the reactions of his past deeds. Acting through the heart of Pārvatī, the Lord, who is situated in everyone's heart, cursed Citraketu in order to end all his material reactions.

When one eats nicely, his belly is satisfied, and as soon as the belly is satisfied the genitals become strong. Especially when a man is accustomed to eating meat and drinking wine and similar passionate things, he certainly becomes sexually inclined. It should be understood that sexual inclinations are meant not for spiritual progress but for gliding down to hell. Thus Kaśyapa Muni considered his situation and lamented. In other words, to be a householder is very risky unless one is trained and the wife is a follower of her husband. A husband should be trained at the very beginning of his life. Kaumāra ācaret prājño dharmān bhāgavatān iha (Bhāg. 7.6.1). During the time of brahmacarya, or student life, a brahmacārī should be taught to be expert in bhāgavata-dharma, devotional service.

However, a relationship between husband and wife without spiritual consciousness but strictly for sense gratification is not at all good. It is said in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (12.2.3) that especially in this age, Kali-yuga, dām-patye 'bhirucir hetuḥ: the relationship between husband and wife will be based on sexual power.

Women are generally known as the fair sex, and especially in youth, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, women are very attractive to men. Therefore a woman's face is compared to a blooming lotus flower in autumn. Just as a lotus is extremely beautiful in autumn, a woman at the threshold of youthful beauty is extremely attractive. In Sanskrit a woman's voice is called nārī-svara because women generally sing and their singing is very attractive. At the present moment, cinema artists, especially female singers, are especially welcome. Some of them earn fabulous amounts of money simply by singing. Therefore, as taught by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, a woman's singing is dangerous because it can make a sannyāsī fall a victim to the woman. Sannyāsa means giving up the company of women, but if a sannyāsī hears the voice of a woman and sees her beautiful face, he certainly becomes attracted and is sure to fall down. There have been many examples. Even the great sage Viśvāmitra fell a victim to Menakā. Therefore a person desiring to advance in spiritual consciousness must be especially careful not to see a woman's face or hear a woman's voice. To see a woman's face and appreciate its beauty or to hear a woman's voice and appreciate her singing as very nice is a subtle falldown for a brahmacārī or sannyāsī. Thus the description of a woman's features by Kaśyapa Muni is very instructive.", + "When a woman's bodily features are attractive, when her face is beautiful and when her voice is sweet, she is naturally a trap for a man. The śāstras advise that when such a woman comes to serve a man, she should be considered to be like a dark well covered by grass. In the fields there are many such wells, and a man who does not know about them drops through the grass and falls down. Thus there are many such instructions. Since the attraction of the material world is based on attraction for women, Kaśyapa Muni thought, \"Under the circumstances, who can understand the heart of a woman?\" Cāṇakya Paṇḍita has also advised, viśvāso naiva kartavyaḥ strīṣu rāja-kuleṣu ca: \"There are two persons one should not trust—a politician and a woman.\" These, of course, are authoritative śāstric injunctions, and we should therefore be very careful in our dealings with women.", + "Sometimes our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is criticized for mingling men and women, but Kṛṣṇa consciousness is meant for anyone. Whether one is a man or woman does not matter. Lord Kṛṣṇa personally says, striyo vaiśyās tathā śūdrās te 'pi yānti parāṁ gatim: whether one is a woman, śūdra or vaiśya, not to speak of being a brāhmaṇa or kṣatriya, everyone is fit to return home, back to Godhead, if he strictly follows the instructions of the spiritual master and śāstra. We therefore request all the members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement—both men and women—not to be attracted by bodily features but only to be attracted by Kṛṣṇa.

Women need to be protected by men. A woman should be cared for by her father in her childhood, by her husband in her youth and by her grown sons in her old age. This is the injunction of Manu, who says that a woman should not be given independence at any stage. Women must be cared for so that they will not be free to manifest their natural tendency for gross selfishness. There have been many cases, even in the present day, in which women have killed their husbands to take advantage of their insurance policies. This is not a criticism of women but a practical study of their nature. Such natural instincts of a woman or a man are manifested only in the bodily conception of life. When either a man or a woman is advanced in spiritual consciousness, the bodily conception of life practically vanishes. We should see all women as spiritual units (ahaṁ brahmāsmi), whose only duty is to satisfy Kṛṣṇa. Then the influences of the different modes of material nature, which result from one's possessing a material body, will not act.", + "The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is so beneficial that it can very easily counteract the contamination of material nature, which results from one's possessing a material body. Bhagavad-gītā therefore teaches, in the very beginning, that whether one is a man or a woman, one must know that he or she is not the body but a spiritual soul. Everyone should be interested in the activities of the spirit soul, not the body. As long as one is activated by the bodily conception of life, there is always the danger of being misled, whether one is a man or a woman. The soul is sometimes described as puruṣa because whether one is dressed as a man or a woman, one is inclined to enjoy this material world. One who has this spirit of enjoyment is described as puruṣa. Whether one is a man or a woman, he is not interested in serving others; everyone is interested in satisfying his or her own senses. Kṛṣṇa consciousness, however, provides first-class training for a man or a woman. A man should be trained to be a first-class devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa, and a woman should be trained to be a very chaste follower of her husband.

He wanted both her and her sons to be purified so that they would be fit to become pure Vaiṣṇavas. Of course, sometimes a practitioner deviates from the Vaiṣṇava principles, and there is a chance that he may fall down, but Kaśyapa Muni thought that even if one falls while practicing the Vaiṣṇava principles, he is still not a loser. Even a fallen Vaiṣṇava is eligible for better results, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā.

Although He is full in Himself, He nonetheless becomes pleased when His devotee offers Him patraṁ puṣpaṁ phalaṁ toyam—a leaf, flower, fruit or water—in devotion. Sometimes the Lord, as the child of mother Yaśodā, requests His devotee for some food, as if He were very hungry. Sometimes He tells His devotee in a dream that His temple and His garden are now very old and that He cannot enjoy them very nicely. Thus He requests the devotee to repair them. Sometimes He is buried in the earth, and as if unable to come out Himself, He requests His devotee to rescue Him. Sometimes He requests His devotee to preach His glories all over the world, although He alone is quite competent to perform this task. Even though the Supreme Personality of Godhead is endowed with all possessions and is self-sufficient, He depends on His devotees. Therefore the relationship of the Lord with His devotees is extremely confidential. Only the devotee can perceive how the Lord, although full in Himself, depends on His devotee for some particular work. This is explained in Bhagavad-gītā (11.33), where the Lord tells Arjuna, nimitta-mātraṁ bhava savyasācin: \"O Arjuna, merely be an instrument in the fight.\" Lord Kṛṣṇa had the competence to win the Battle of Kurukṣetra, but nonetheless He induced His devotee Arjuna to fight and become the cause of victory. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was quite competent enough to spread His name and mission all over the world, but still He depended upon His devotee to do this work. Considering all these points, the most important aspect of the Supreme Lord's self-sufficiency is that He depends on His devotees. This is called His causeless mercy. The devotee who has perceived this causeless mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead by realization can understand the master and the servant." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/19/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/19/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9df2ca15 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/06/chapters/19/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 6, + "chapter": 19, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 6.19.6", + "devanagari": "विष्णुपत्नि महामाये महापुरुषलक्षणे\nप्रीयेथा मे महाभागे लोकमातर्नमो ऽस्तु ते", + "transliteration": "viṣṇu-patni mahā-māye\nmahāpuruṣa-lakṣaṇe\nprīyethā me mahā-bhāge\nloka-mātar namo 'stu te", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "viṣṇu-patni", + "meanings": [ + "O wife of Lord Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-māye", + "meanings": [ + "O energy of Lord Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-puruṣa-lakṣaṇe", + "meanings": [ + "possessing the qualities and opulences of Lord Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prīyethāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "kindly be pleased" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "upon me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-bhāge", + "meanings": [ + "O goddess of fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka-mātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "O mother of the world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "astu", + "meanings": [ + "may there be" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "[After profusely offering obeisances unto Lord Viṣṇu, the devotee should offer respectful obeisances unto mother Lakṣmī, the goddess of fortune, and pray as follows.] O wife of Lord Viṣṇu, O internal energy of Lord Viṣṇu, you are as good as Lord Viṣṇu Himself, for you have all of His qualities and opulences.

śrīmad ūrjitam eva vā
tat tad evāvagaccha tvaṁ
mama tejo-'ṁśa-sambhavam", + "\"Know that all beautiful, glorious and mighty creations spring from but a spark of My splendor.\" We have the practical experience of seeing that one person is able to do very wonderful things whereas another cannot do those same things and cannot even do things that require only a little common sense. Therefore, how much a devotee has been favored by the Supreme Personality of Godhead can be tested by the activities the devotee has performed. In Bhagavad-gītā (10.10) the Lord also says:", + "teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ
bhajatāṁ prīti-pūrvakam
dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ taṁ
yena mām upayānti te", + "\"To those who are constantly devoted and who worship Me with love, I give the understanding by which they can come to Me.\" This is very practical. A teacher instructs the student if the student is capable of taking more and more instructions. Otherwise, in spite of being instructed by the teacher, the student cannot make strides in his understanding. This has nothing to do with partiality. When Kṛṣṇa says teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ bhajatāṁ prīti-pūrvakam/ dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ tam, this indicates that Kṛṣṇa is prepared to give bhakti-yoga to everyone, but one must be capable of receiving it. That is the secret. Thus when a person exhibits wonderful devotional activities, a thoughtful man understands that Kṛṣṇa has been more favorable to this devotee.", + "This is not difficult to understand, but envious persons do not accept that Kṛṣṇa has bestowed His favor upon a particular devotee in accordance with his advanced position. Such foolish persons become envious and try to minimize an advanced devotee's activities. That is not Vaiṣṇavism. A Vaiṣṇava should appreciate the service rendered to the Lord by other Vaiṣṇavas. Therefore a Vaiṣṇava is described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam as nirmatsara. Vaiṣṇavas are never envious of other Vaiṣṇavas or of anyone else, and therefore they are called nirmatsarāṇāṁ satām.", + "As Bhagavad-gītā informs us, one can understand how one is saturated with sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa or tamo-guṇa. In the examples given herewith, fire represents the mode of goodness. One can understand the constitution of a container for wood, petrol or other inflammable substances by the quantity of the fire. Similarly, water represents rajo-guṇa, the mode of passion. A small skin and the vast Atlantic Ocean both contain water, and by seeing the quantity of water in a container one can understand the size of the container. The sky represents the mode of ignorance. The sky is present in a small earthen pot and also in outer space. Thus by proper judgment one can see who is a devatā, or demigod, and who is an asura, Yakṣa or Rākṣasa according to the quantities of sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa. One cannot judge whether a person is a devatā, an asura or a Rākṣasa by seeing him, but a sane man can understand this by the activities such a person performs. A general description is given in the Padma Purāṇa: viṣṇu-bhaktaḥ smṛto daiva āsuras tad-viparyayaḥ. A devotee of Lord Viṣṇu is a demigod, whereas an asura or Yakṣa is just the opposite. An asura is not a devotee of Lord Viṣṇu; instead, for his sense gratification he is a devotee of the demigods, bhūtas, pretas and so on. Thus one can judge who is a devatā, who is a Rākṣasa and who is an asura by how they conduct their activities.", + "The word ātmānam in this verse means paramātmānam. The Paramātmā, or Supersoul, is situated in the core of everyone's heart (antataḥ). This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (18.61). Īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe 'rjuna tiṣṭhati. The īśvara, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, being situated in everyone's heart, gives directions to everyone in terms of one's capabilities in taking the instructions. The instructions of Bhagavad-gītā are open to everyone, but some people understand them properly, whereas others understand them so improperly that they cannot even believe in the existence of Kṛṣṇa, although reading Kṛṣṇa's book. Although the Gītā says śrī-bhagavān uvāca, indicating that Kṛṣṇa spoke, they cannot understand Kṛṣṇa. This is due to their misfortune or incapability, which is caused by rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa, the modes of passion and ignorance. It is because of these modes that they cannot even understand Kṛṣṇa, whereas an advanced devotee like Arjuna understands Him and glorifies Him, saying, paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān: \"You are the Supreme Brahman, the supreme abode and purifier.\" Kṛṣṇa is open to everyone, but one needs the capability to understand Him.", + "By external features one cannot understand who is favored by Kṛṣṇa and who is not. According to one's attitude, Kṛṣṇa becomes one's direct adviser, or Kṛṣṇa becomes unknown. This is not Kṛṣṇa's partiality; it is His response to one's ability to understand Him. According to one's receptiveness—whether one be a devatā, asura, Yakṣa or Rākṣasa—Kṛṣṇa's quality is proportionately exhibited. This proportionate exhibition of Kṛṣṇa's power is misunderstood by less intelligent men to be Kṛṣṇa's partiality, but actually it is no such thing. Kṛṣṇa is equal to everyone, and according to one's ability to receive the favor of Kṛṣṇa, one advances in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura gives a practical example in this connection. In the sky there are many luminaries. At night, even in darkness, the moon is extremely brilliant and can be directly perceived. The sun is also extremely brilliant. When covered by clouds, however, these luminaries are not distinctly visible. Similarly, the more one advances in sattva-guṇa, the more his brilliance is exhibited by devotional service, but the more one is covered by rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa, the less visible his brilliance, for he is covered by these qualities. The visibility of one's qualities does not depend on the partiality of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; it is due to various coverings in different proportions. Thus one can understand how far he has advanced in terms of sattva-guṇa and how much he is covered by rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/01/verses/10.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/01/verses/10.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..72bc711d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/01/verses/10.json @@ -0,0 +1,125 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 10, + "reference": "SB 7.1.10", + "devanagari": "यदा सिसृक्षुः पुर आत्मनः परो रजः सृजत्य् एष पृथक्स्वमायया\nसत्त्वं विचित्रासु रिरंसुर् ईश्वरः शयिष्यमाणस्तम ईरयत्य् असौ", + "transliteration": "yadā sisṛkṣuḥ pura ātmanaḥ paro\nrajaḥ sṛjaty eṣa pṛthak sva-māyayā\nsattvaṁ vicitrāsu riraṁsur īśvaraḥ\nśayiṣyamāṇas tama īrayaty asau", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yadā", + "meanings": [ + "when" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sisṛkṣuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desiring to create" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "material bodies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "for the living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rajaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mode of passion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sṛjati", + "meanings": [ + "manifests" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "He" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛthak", + "meanings": [ + "separately, predominantly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-māyayā", + "meanings": [ + "by His own creative energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sattvam", + "meanings": [ + "the mode of goodness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vicitrāsu", + "meanings": [ + "in various types of bodies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "riraṁsuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desiring to act" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śayiṣyamāṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being about to conclude" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mode of ignorance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īrayati", + "meanings": [ + "causes to rise" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asau", + "meanings": [ + "that Supreme." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "When the Supreme Personality of Godhead creates different types of bodies, offering a particular body to each living entity according to his character and fruitive actions, the Lord revives all the qualities of material nature—sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa.

She approached the house of Nanda Mahārāja with the purpose of killing Kṛṣṇa by smearing poison on her breast, yet when she was killed she attained the highest position, achieving the status of Kṛṣṇa's mother. Krsna is so kind and impartial that because he sucked Putana's breast, He immediately accepted her as His mother. This superfluous activity of killing Pūtanā did not diminish the Lord's impartiality. He is suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānām, the friend of everyone. Therefore partiality cannot apply to the character of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who always maintains His position as the supreme controller. The Lord killed Pūtanā as an enemy, but because of His being the supreme controller, she attained an exalted position as His mother. Śrīla Madhva Muni therefore remarks, kāle kāla-viṣaye 'pīśitā. dehādi-kāraṇatvāt surānīkam iva sthitaṁ sattvam. Ordinarily a murderer is hanged, and in the Manu-saṁhitā it is said that a king bestows mercy upon a murderer by killing him, thus saving him from various kinds of suffering. Because of his sinful activities, such a murderer is killed by the mercy of the king. Kṛṣṇa, the supreme judge, deals with matters in a similar way because He is the supreme controller.

The vivid example for this is Vṛtrāsura, who was formerly Citraketu Mahārāja, a great devotee. Because he derided Lord Śiva, the foremost of all devotees, he had to accept the body of a demon called Vṛtra, but then he was taken back to Godhead.

By thinking of Kṛṣṇa, both the demons and devotees attain liberation from the clutches of material māyā.", + "This verse uses the word māyā-manuje. When Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, appears in His original spiritual potency (sambhavāmy ātma-māyayā), He is not forced to accept a form made by material nature. Therefore the Lord is addressed as īśvara, the controller of māyā. He is not controlled by māyā. When a demon continuously thinks of Kṛṣṇa because of enmity toward Him, he is certainly freed from the sinful reactions of his life. To think of Kṛṣṇa in any way, in terms of His name, form, qualities, paraphernalia or anything pertaining to Him, is beneficial for everyone. Sṛṇvatāṁ sva-kathāḥ kṛṣṇaḥ puṇya-śravaṇa-kīrtanaḥ. Thinking of Kṛṣṇa, hearing the holy name of Kṛṣṇa or hearing the pastimes of Kṛṣṇa will make one pure, and then he will become a devotee. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is therefore trying to introduce the system of somehow or other letting everyone hear the holy name of Kṛṣṇa and take Kṛṣṇa's prasāda. Thus one will gradually become a devotee, and his life will be successful." + ], + "verse_end": 29 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/01/verses/30.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/01/verses/30.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..53b43262 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/01/verses/30.json @@ -0,0 +1,113 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 30, + "reference": "SB 7.1.30", + "devanagari": "कामाद्द्वेषाद्भयात्स्नेहाद्यथा भक्त्येश्वरे मनः\nआवेश्य तदघं हित्वा बहवस्तद्गतिं गताः", + "transliteration": "kāmād dveṣād bhayāt snehād\nyathā bhaktyeśvare manaḥ\nāveśya tad-aghaṁ hitvā\nbahavas tad-gatiṁ gatāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kāmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from lust" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dveṣāt", + "meanings": [ + "from hatred" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhayāt", + "meanings": [ + "from fear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "snehāt", + "meanings": [ + "from affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as well as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhaktyā", + "meanings": [ + "by devotion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśvare", + "meanings": [ + "in the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āveśya", + "meanings": [ + "absorbing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "of that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agham", + "meanings": [ + "sin" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hitvā", + "meanings": [ + "giving up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahavaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "many" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "of that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatim", + "meanings": [ + "path of liberation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gatāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "attained." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Many, many persons have attained liberation simply by thinking of Kṛṣṇa with great attention and giving up sinful activities.

Nonetheless, since the demigods, the devotees, always strictly follow the Supreme Lord's orders, because of sincerity they are victorious over the demons, who know that the Supreme Lord is Viṣṇu but do not follow His instructions. Because of constantly remembering the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu, the demons generally attain sāyujya-mukti after death. The demon Hiraṇyakaśipu accused the Lord of being partial because the demigods worshiped Him, but in fact the Lord, like the government, is not partial at all. The government is not partial to any citizen, but if a citizen is law-abiding he receives abundant opportunities from the state laws to live peacefully and fulfill his real interests." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/02/verses/07.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/02/verses/07.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c996da6c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/02/verses/07.json @@ -0,0 +1,153 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 7, + "reference": "SB 7.2.7-8", + "devanagari": "तस्य त्यक्तस्वभावस्य घृणेर्मायावनौकसः\nभजन्तं भजमानस्य बालस्येवास्थिरात्मनः\nमच्छूलभिन्नग्रीवस्य भूरिणा रुधिरेण वै\nअसृक्प्रियं तर्पयिष्ये भ्रातरं मे गतव्यथः", + "transliteration": "tasya tyakta-svabhāvasya\nghṛṇer māyā-vanaukasaḥ\nbhajantaṁ bhajamānasya\nbālasyevāsthirātmanaḥ\nmac-chūla-bhinna-grīvasya\nbhūriṇā rudhireṇa vai\nasṛk-priyaṁ tarpayiṣye\nbhrātaraṁ me gata-vyathaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Him (the Supreme Personality of Godhead)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tyakta-svabhāvasya", + "meanings": [ + "who has given up His natural position (of being equal to everyone)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ghṛṇeḥ", + "meanings": [ + "most abominable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyā", + "meanings": [ + "under the influence of the illusory energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vana-okasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "behaving exactly like an animal in the jungle" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajantam", + "meanings": [ + "unto the devotee engaged in devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhajamānasya", + "meanings": [ + "being worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bālasya", + "meanings": [ + "a child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "like" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asthira-ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who is always restless and changing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śūla", + "meanings": [ + "by the trident" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhinna", + "meanings": [ + "separated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grīvasya", + "meanings": [ + "whose neck" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūriṇā", + "meanings": [ + "profuse" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rudhireṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by blood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asṛk-priyam", + "meanings": [ + "who was fond of blood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tarpayiṣye", + "meanings": [ + "I shall please" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhrātaram", + "meanings": [ + "brother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gata-vyathaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "becoming peaceful myself." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Personality of Godhead has given up His natural tendency of equality toward the demons and demigods.

He planned first to kill Lord Viṣṇu so that with Lord Viṣṇu's death the demigods would automatically weaken and die. Another of his plans was to disturb the residents of the planet earth. The peace and prosperity of the residents of earth, and all the other planets, were maintained by the brāhmaṇas and kṣatriyas. The Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.13), cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ: \"According to the three modes of material nature and the work ascribed to them, the four divisions of human society were created by Me.\" On all the planets there are different types of residents, but the Lord recommends, referring especially to the planet earth, which is inhabited by human beings, that society be divided into four varṇas—brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra. Before the advent of Lord Kṛṣṇa on this earth, it is understood that the earth was managed by the brāhmaṇas and kṣatriyas. The duty of the brāhmaṇas is to cultivate śamaḥ (peacefulness), damaḥ (self-control), titikṣā (tolerance), satyam (truthfulness), śaucam (cleanliness) and ārjavam (simplicity), and then to advise the kṣatriya kings how to rule the country or planet. Following the instructions of the brāhmaṇas, the kṣatriyas should engage the populace in austerity, sacrifices, Vedic study and adherence to the rules and regulations established by Vedic principles. They should also arrange for charity to be given to the brāhmaṇas, sannyāsīs and temples. This is the godly arrangement of brahminical culture.", + "People are inclined to offer yajña because unless sacrifices are offered there will be insufficient rain (yajñād bhavati parjanyaḥ), which will hamper agricultural activities (parjanyād anna-sambhavaḥ). By introducing brahminical culture, therefore, a kṣatriya government should engage people in performing yajña, studying the Vedas and giving charity. Thus the people will receive their necessities for life very easily, and there will be no disturbances in society. In this regard, Lord Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (3.12):", + "iṣṭān bhogān hi vo devā
dāsyante yajña-bhāvitāḥ
tair dattān apradāyaibhyo
yo bhuṅkte stena eva saḥ", + "\"In charge of the various necessities of life, the demigods, being satisfied by the performance of yajña [sacrifice], supply all necessities to man. But he who enjoys these gifts, without offering them to the demigods in return, is certainly a thief.\"", + "The demigods are authorized supplying agents who act on behalf of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Viṣṇu. Therefore, they must be satisfied by the performance of prescribed yajñas. In the Vedas, there are different kinds of yajñas prescribed for different kinds of demigods, but all are ultimately offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. For one who cannot understand what the Personality of Godhead is, sacrifice to the demigods is recommended. According to the different material qualities of the persons concerned, different types of yajñas are recommended in the Vedas. Worship of different demigods is also on the same basis—namely, according to different qualities. For example, the meat-eaters are recommended to worship the goddess Kālī, the ghastly form of material nature, and before the goddess the sacrifice of animals is recommended. But for those in the mode of goodness, the transcendental worship of Viṣṇu is recommended. Ultimately, all yajñas are meant for gradual promotion to the transcendental position. For ordinary men, at least five yajñas, known as pañca-mahāyajña, are necessary.", + "One should know, however, that all the necessities of life that human society requires are supplied by the demigod agents of the Lord. No one can manufacture anything. Consider, for example, all the eatables of human society. These eatables include grains, fruits, vegetables, milk and sugar for persons in the mode of goodness, and also eatables for the nonvegetarians, such as meats, none of which can be manufactured by men. Then again, take for example, heat, light, water and air, which are also necessities of life—none of them can be manufactured by human society. Without the Supreme Lord, there can be no profuse sunlight, moonlight, rainfall or breeze, without which no one can live. Obviously, our life is dependent on supplies from the Lord. Even for our manufacturing enterprises, we require so many raw materials like metal, sulphur, mercury, manganese and so many essentials—all of which are supplied by the agents of the Lord, with the purpose that we should make proper use of them to keep ourselves fit and healthy for the purpose of self-realization, leading to the ultimate goal of life, namely, liberation from the material struggle for existence. This aim of life is attained by performance of yajñas. If we forget the purpose of human life and simply take supplies from the agents of the Lord for sense gratification and become more and more entangled in material existence, which is not the purpose of creation, certainly we become thieves, and therefore we are punished by the laws of material nature. A society of thieves can never be happy, for they have no aim in life. The gross materialist thieves have no ultimate goal of life. They are simply directed to sense gratification; nor do they have knowledge of how to perform yajñas. Lord Caitanya, however, inaugurated the easiest performance of yajña, namely the saṅkīrtana-yajña, which can be performed by anyone in the world who accepts the principles of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "Hiraṇyakaśipu planned to kill the inhabitants of earth so that yajña would stop and the demigods, being disturbed, would die automatically when Lord Viṣṇu, the yajñeśvara, was killed.

Later, after a compromise was arranged, Kuntī stayed alive to care for the little children, and the other wife, Mādrī, was allowed to die with her husband. This system of saha-māraṇa continued in India even until the time of British rule, but later it was discouraged, since the attitude of wives gradually changed with the advancement of Kali-yuga.

Because of ignorance only, the queens thought of the dead body as their husband and somehow or other thought that if the body were kept their husband would remain with them. Such a conception of the self is certainly for go-khara—cows and asses. We have actually seen that sometimes when a cow's calf has died the milkman cheats the cow by presenting before her the dead body of her calf. Thus the cow, who would not otherwise allow milking, licks the dead body of the calf and allows herself to be milked. This substantiates the description of the śāstra that a foolish man in the bodily concept of life is like a cow. Not only do foolish men and women consider the body the self, but we have even seen that the dead body of a so-called yogī was kept for days by his disciples, who thought that their guru was in samādhi. When decomposition began and a bad smell unfortunately began to overwhelm the yogic power, the disciples allowed the dead body of the so-called yogī to be burned. Thus the bodily concept of life is extremely strong among foolish persons, who are compared to cows and asses. Nowadays, great scientists are trying to freeze dead bodies so that in the future these frozen bodies may again be brought to life.

From this subtle state of unmanifestation comes manifestation, just as from ether, air is generated; from air, fire is generated; from fire, water is generated; and from water, earth becomes manifested. From the earth, many varieties of manifestations take place. For example, a big skyscraper is manifested from the earth. When it is dismantled, the manifestation becomes again unmanifested and remains as atoms in the ultimate stage. The law of conservation of energy remains, but in the course of time things are manifested and unmanifested—that is the difference.

The material body has no factual existence in relation to the eternal soul. It is something like a dream. In a dream we may think of flying in the sky or sitting on a chariot as a king, but when we wake up we can see that we are neither in the sky nor seated on the chariot.

The same argument could be put forward in regard to the King and his queens. The body of the King was manifested from an unmanifested source, and again it became unmanifested from manifestation.

Lord Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15), sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca: \"I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness.\" One must act according to the direction of the Lord within the heart, but because the conditioned soul wants to act independently, the Lord gives him the facility to act and experience the reactions. The Lord says, sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja: \"Give up all other duties and simply surrender unto Me.\" One who does not abide by the orders of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is given the facility to enjoy this material world. Instead of restricting him, the Lord gives the conditioned soul the opportunity to enjoy so that by mature experience, after many, many births (bahūnāṁ janmanām ante), he will understand that surrender to the lotus feet of Vāsudeva is the only duty of all living beings." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/02/verses/39.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/02/verses/39.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2b2ee115 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/02/verses/39.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 39, + "reference": "SB 7.2.39", + "devanagari": "य इच्छयेशः सृजतीदम् अव्ययो य एव रक्षत्य् अवलुम्पते च यः\nतस्याबलाः क्रीडनम् आहुर् ईशितुश्चराचरं निग्रहसंग्रहे प्रभुः", + "transliteration": "ya icchayeśaḥ sṛjatīdam avyayo\nya eva rakṣaty avalumpate ca yaḥ\ntasyābalāḥ krīḍanam āhur īśituś\ncarācaraṁ nigraha-saṅgrahe prabhuḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "icchayā", + "meanings": [ + "by His will (without being forced by anyone)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme controller" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sṛjati", + "meanings": [ + "creates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this (material world)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avyayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "remaining as He is (not having lost His own existence because of having created so many material manifestations)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rakṣati", + "meanings": [ + "maintains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avalumpate", + "meanings": [ + "annihilates" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abalāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "O poor women" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krīḍanam", + "meanings": [ + "the playing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "they say" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśituḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cara-acaram", + "meanings": [ + "moving and not moving" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nigraha", + "meanings": [ + "in destruction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṅgrahe", + "meanings": [ + "or in protection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fully able." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The boy addressed the women: O weak women!

Their scientific knowledge is so advanced that they think that within the egg and the embryo there is no life. Now these so-called scientists are receiving Nobel Prizes for advancing the theory of chemical evolution.

According to this conception, one should be interested in his personal safety and should then consider society, friendship, love, nationality, community and so on, which have all developed because of the bodily conception of life and a lack of knowledge of the spirit soul. This is called ajñāna. As long as human society is in darkness and ignorance, men will continue to make huge arrangements in the bodily conception of life. This is described by Prahlāda Mahārāja as bharam. In the materialistic conception, modern civilization makes enormous arrangements for huge roads, houses, mills and factories, and this is man's conception of the advancement of civilization. People do not know, however, that at any time they themselves may be kicked out of the scene and forced to accept bodies that have nothing to do with these enormous houses, palaces, roads and automobiles. Therefore when Arjuna was thinking in terms of his bodily relationships with his kinsmen, Kṛṣṇa immediately chastised him, saying, kutas tvā kaśmalam idaṁ viṣame samupasthitam anārya-juṣṭam: \"This bodily conception of life is befitting the anāryas, the non-Āryans, who are not advanced in knowledge.\" An Āryan civilization is a civilization advanced in spiritual knowledge. Not merely by stamping oneself an Āryan does one become an Āryan. To keep oneself in the deepest darkness concerning spiritual knowledge and at the same time claim to be an Āryan is a non-Āryan position. In this connection, Śrīla Madhvācārya quotes as follows from the Brahma-vaivarta Purāṇa:", + "ka ātmā kaḥ para iti dehādy-apekṣayā", + "na hi dehādir ātmā syān

The body is not the self; we are different from the body, and therefore there is no question of friends, enemies or responsibilities in terms of the bodily conception of life. One should not be very anxious about the body's changing from childhood to boyhood, from boyhood to old age and then to apparent annihilation. Rather, one should be very seriously concerned about the soul within the body and how to release the soul from the material clutches. The living entity within the body is never annihilated; therefore one should surely know that whether one has many friends or many enemies, his friends cannot help him, and his enemies cannot do him any harm. One should know that he is a spirit soul (ahaṁ brahmāsmi) and that the constitutional position of the soul is unaffected by the changes of the body. In all circumstances, everyone, as a spirit soul, must be a devotee of Lord Viṣṇu and should not be concerned with bodily relationships, whether with friends or with enemies.

As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā, four classes of men receive an understanding of spiritual life and God—ārta (the distressed), jijñāsu (the inquisitive), arthārthī (one who desires material gains) and jñānī (one who is searching for knowledge). Especially when one is very much distressed by material conditions, one becomes interested in God. Therefore Kuntīdevī said in her prayers to Kṛṣṇa that she preferred distress to a happy mood of life. In the material world, one who is happy forgets Kṛṣṇa, or God, but sometimes, if one is actually pious but in distress, he remembers Kṛṣṇa. Queen Kuntīdevī therefore preferred distress because it is an opportunity for remembering Kṛṣṇa. When Kṛṣṇa was leaving Kuntīdevī for His own country, Kuntīdevī regretfully said that she was better off in distress because Kṛṣṇa was always present, whereas now that the Pāṇḍavas were situated in their kingdom, Kṛṣṇa was going away.

It is learned from Caitanya literature that one big Zamindar, Subuddhi Rāya, kept a Mohammedan boy as a servant. Of course, he treated the boy as his own child, and sometimes, when the boy would steal something, the master would chastise him by striking him with a cane. There was a mark on the boy's back from this chastisement. Later, after that boy had by crooked means become Hussain Shah, Nawab of Bengal, one day his wife saw the mark on his back and inquired about it. The Nawab replied that in his childhood he had been a servant of Subuddhi Rāya, who had punished him because of some mischievous activities. Upon hearing this, the Nawab's wife immediately became agitated and requested her husband to kill Subuddhi Rāya. Nawab Hussain Shah, of course, was very grateful to Subuddhi Rāya and therefore refused to kill him, but when his wife requested him to turn Subuddhi Rāya into a Mohammedan, the Nawab agreed. Taking some water from his waterpot, he sprinkled it upon Subuddhi Rāya and declared that Subuddhi Rāya had now become a Mohammedan. The point is that this Nawab had been an ordinary menial servant of Subuddhi Rāya but was somehow or other able to occupy the supreme post of Nawab of Bengal. This is the material world. Everyone is trying to become master through various devices, although everyone is servant of his senses. Following this system, a living entity, although servant of his senses, tries to become master of the whole universe.

In Vedic culture, the welfare of the cows and the welfare of the brāhmaṇas are essential. Without a proper arrangement for developing brahminical culture and protecting cows, all the affairs of administration will go to hell. Being afraid that Hiraṇyakaśipu would occupy the post of Brahmā, all the demigods were extremely disturbed. Hiraṇyakaśipu was a well-known demon, and the demigods knew that if demons and Rākṣasas were to occupy the supreme post, brahminical culture and protection of cows would come to an end. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (5.29), the original proprietor of everything is Lord Kṛṣṇa (bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ sarva-loka-maheśvaram). The Lord, therefore, knows particularly well how to develop the material condition of the living entities within this material world. In every universe there is one Brahmā engaged on behalf of Lord Kṛṣṇa, as confirmed in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (tene brahma hṛdaya ādi-kavaye). The principal creator in each brahmāṇḍa is Lord Brahmā, who imparts Vedic knowledge to his disciples and sons. On every planet, the king or supreme controller must be a representative of Brahmā. Therefore, if a Rākṣasa, or demon, were situated in Brahmā's post, then the entire arrangement of the universe, especially the protection of the brahminical culture and cows, would be ruined. All the demigods anticipated this danger, and therefore they went to request Lord Brahmā to take immediate steps to thwart Hiraṇyakaśipu's plan.", + "In the beginning of creation, Lord Brahmā was attacked by two demons—Madhu and Kaiṭabha—but Kṛṣṇa saved him. Therefore Kṛṣṇa is addressed as madhu-kaiṭabha-hantṛ. Now again, Hiraṇyakaśipu was trying to replace Brahmā. The material world is so situated that even the position of Lord Brahmā, not to speak of ordinary living entities, is sometimes in danger. Nonetheless, until the time of Hiraṇyakaśipu, no one had tried to replace Lord Brahmā. Hiraṇyakaśipu, however, was such a great demon that he maintained this ambition.", + "The word bhūtyai means \"for increasing opulence,\" and the word śreyase refers to ultimately returning home, back to Godhead. In spiritual advancement, one's material position improves at the same time that the path of liberation becomes clear and one is freed from material bondage. If one is situated in an opulent position in spiritual advancement, his opulence never decreases. Therefore such a spiritual benediction is called bhūti or vibhūti. Kṛṣṇa confirms this in Bhagavad-gītā (10.41). Yad yad vibhūtimat sattvaṁ. .. mama tejo-'ṁśa-sambhavam: if a devotee advances in spiritual consciousness and thus becomes materially opulent also, his position is a special gift from the Lord. Such opulence is never to be considered material. At the present, especially on this planet earth, the influence of Lord Brahmā has decreased considerably, and the representatives of Hiraṇyakaśipu—the Rākṣasas and demons—have taken charge.

Since one day of the demigods equals six of our months, certainly this was a very long time. By nature's own way, his body had been almost consumed by earthworms, ants and other parasites, and therefore even Brahmā was at first unable to see him. Later, however, Brahmā could ascertain where Hiraṇyakaśipu was, and Brahmā was struck with wonder to see Hiraṇyakaśipu's extraordinary power to execute tapasya. Anyone would conclude that Hiraṇyakaśipu was dead because his body was covered in so many ways, but Lord Brahmā, the supreme living being in this universe, could understand that Hiraṇyakaśipu was alive but covered by material elements.", + "It is also to be noted that although Hiraṇyakaśipu performed this austerity for a long, long time, he was nonetheless known as a Daitya and Rākṣasa. It will be seen from verses to follow that even great saintly persons could not perform such a severe type of austerity. Why then was he called a Rākṣasa and Daitya? It is because whatever he did was for his own sense gratification. His son Prahlāda Mahārāja was only five years old, and so what could Prahlāda do? Yet simply by performing a little devotional service according to the instructions of Nārada Muni, Prahlāda became so dear to the Lord that the Lord came to save him, whereas Hiraṇyakaśipu, in spite of all his austerities, was killed. This is the difference between devotional service and all other methods of perfection. One who performs severe austerities for sense gratification is fearful to the entire world, whereas a devotee who performs even a slight amount of devotional service is a friend to everyone (suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānām). Since the Lord is the well-wisher of every living entity and since a devotee assumes the qualities of the Lord, a devotee also acts for everyone's good fortune by performing devotional service. Thus although Hiraṇyakaśipu performed such a severe austerity, he remained a Daitya and a Rākṣasa, whereas Prahlāda Mahārāja, although born of the same Daitya father, became the most exalted devotee and was personally protected by the Supreme Lord. Bhakti is therefore called sarvopādhi-vinirmuktam, indicating that a devotee is freed from all material designations, and anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyam, situated in a transcendental position, free from all material desires." + ], + "verse_end": 16 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/03/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/03/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..680126ec --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/03/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 7.3.17", + "devanagari": "श्रीब्रह्मोवाच\nउत्तिष्ठोत्तिष्ठ भद्रं ते तपःसिद्धो ऽसि काश्यप\nवरदो ऽहम् अनुप्राप्तो व्रियताम् ईप्सितो वरः", + "transliteration": "śrī-brahmovāca\nuttiṣṭhottiṣṭha bhadraṁ te\ntapaḥ-siddho 'si kāśyapa\nvarado 'ham anuprāpto\nvriyatām īpsito varaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-brahmā uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Brahmā said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttiṣṭha", + "meanings": [ + "please get up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uttiṣṭha", + "meanings": [ + "get up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhadram", + "meanings": [ + "good fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ-siddhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "perfect in executing austerities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asi", + "meanings": [ + "you are" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāśyapa", + "meanings": [ + "O son of Kaśyapa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vara-daḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the giver of benediction" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aham", + "meanings": [ + "I" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuprāptaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "arrived" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vriyatām", + "meanings": [ + "let it be submitted" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īpsitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "desired" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "benediction." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Brahmā said: O son of Kaśyapa Muni, please get up, please get up.

The process of watering a tree is to pour water on the root. Similarly, the process of rendering service to different parts of the body is to supply food to the stomach. The demigods are, so to speak, different officers and directors in the government of the Supreme Lord. One has to follow the laws made by the government, not by the officers or directors. Similarly, everyone is to offer his worship to the Supreme Lord only. That will automatically satisfy the different officers and directors of the Lord. The officers and directors are engaged as representatives of the government, and to offer some bribe to the officers and directors is illegal. This is stated in Bhagavad-gītā as avidhi-pūrvakam.

Yajña means Viṣṇu. In the Third Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā it is clearly stated that one should work only for satisfying Yajña, or Viṣṇu. The perfectional form of human civilization, known as varṇāśrama-dharma, is specifically meant for satisfying Viṣṇu. Therefore, Kṛṣṇa says, \"I am the enjoyer of all sacrifices because I am the supreme master.\" However, less intelligent persons, without knowing this fact, worship demigods for temporary benefit. Therefore they fall down to material existence and do not achieve the desired goal of life. If, however, anyone has any material desire to be fulfilled, he had better pray for it to the Supreme Lord (although that is not pure devotion), and he will thus achieve the desired result.", + "Although Hiraṇyakaśipu offered his obeisances unto Lord Brahmā, he was strongly inimical toward Lord Viṣṇu. This is the symptom of an asura. Asuras worship the demigods as being separate from the Lord, not knowing that all the demigods are powerful because of being servants of the Lord. If the Supreme Lord were to withdraw the powers of the demigods, the demigods would no longer be able to offer benedictions to their worshipers. The difference between a devotee and a nondevotee, or asura, is that a devotee knows that Lord Viṣṇu is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and that everyone derives power from Him. Without worshiping the demigods for particular powers, a devotee worships Lord Viṣṇu, knowing that if he desires a particular power he can get that power while acting as Lord Viṣṇu's devotee.

Because all these devotional activities are absolute, there is no fundamental difference between worshiping the Deity in the temple, seeing Him and chanting His glories. Indeed, all of these are ways of seeing Him, for everything done in devotional service is a means of direct contact with the Lord. The vibration of the Lord's voice appeared in the presence of all the devotees, and although the person vibrating the sound was unseen to them, they were meeting or seeing the Lord because they were offering prayers and because the vibration of the Lord was present. Contrary to the laws of the material world, there is no difference between seeing the Lord, offering prayers and hearing the transcendental vibration. Pure devotees, therefore, are fully satisfied by glorifying the Lord. Such glorification is called kīrtana.

One should therefore very carefully guard against committing vaiṣṇava-aparādha, or offenses at the lotus feet of a Vaiṣṇava. Here the Lord clearly says that although Hiraṇyakaśipu had received benedictions from Lord Brahmā, these benedictions would be null and void as soon as he committed an offense at the lotus feet of Prahlāda Mahārāja, his own son. A Vaiṣṇava like Prahlāda Mahārāja is described herein as nirvaira, having no enemies. Elsewhere in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (3.25.21) it is said, ajāta-śatravaḥ śāntāḥ sādhavaḥ sādhu-bhūṣaṇāḥ: a devotee has no enemies, he is peaceful, he abides by the scriptures, and all his characteristics are sublime. A devotee does not create enmity with anyone, but if someone becomes his enemy, that person will be vanquished by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, despite whatever benedictions he may have received from other sources. Hiraṇyakaśipu was certainly enjoying the fruitful results of his austerities, but here the Lord says that as soon as he committed an offense at the lotus feet of Prahlāda Mahārāja he would be ruined. One's longevity, opulence, beauty, education and whatever else one may possess as a result of pious activities cannot protect one if one commits an offense at the lotus feet of a Vaiṣṇava. Despite whatever one possesses, if one offends the lotus feet of a Vaiṣṇava he will be vanquished." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/04/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/04/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6d0e3de3 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/04/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,95 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 7.4.29", + "devanagari": "श्रीनारद उवाच\nइत्य् उक्ता लोकगुरुणा तं प्रणम्य दिवौकसः\nन्यवर्तन्त गतोद्वेगा मेनिरे चासुरं हतम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-nārada uvāca\nity uktā loka-guruṇā\ntaṁ praṇamya divaukasaḥ\nnyavartanta gatodvegā\nmenire cāsuraṁ hatam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-nāradaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "the great saint Nārada Muni said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uktāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "addressed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "loka-guruṇā", + "meanings": [ + "by the supreme spiritual master of everyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇamya", + "meanings": [ + "offering obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "divaukasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nyavartanta", + "meanings": [ + "returned" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gata-udvegāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "relieved of all anxieties" + ] + }, + { + "word": "menire", + "meanings": [ + "they considered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asuram", + "meanings": [ + "the demon (Hiraṇyakaśipu)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hatam", + "meanings": [ + "killed." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The great saint Nārada Muni continued: When the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the spiritual master of everyone, thus reassured all the demigods living in the heavenly planets, they offered their respectful obeisances unto Him and returned, confident that the demon Hiraṇyakaśipu was now practically dead.", + "purport": [ + "The less intelligent men who are always busy worshiping the demigods should note that when the demigods are harassed by the demons, they approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead for relief.

A Vaiṣṇava is always determined to understand the Absolute Truth, and to understand the Absolute Truth one needs to have full control over his senses and mind. Prahlāda Mahārāja possessed all these qualities. A Vaiṣṇava is always a well-wisher to everyone. The six Gosvāmīs, for example, are described in this way: dhīrādhīra-jana-priyau.

However, he who has no devotion to the Supreme Personality of Godhead has no good qualifications because he is engaged by mental concoction in material existence, which is the external feature of the Lord.\" (Bhāg. 5.18.12) So-called educated philosophers and scientists who are simply on the mental platform cannot distinguish between what is actually sat, eternal, and what is asat, temporary. The Vedic injunction is asato mā jyotir gama: everyone should give up the platform of temporary existence and approach the eternal platform. The soul is eternal, and topics concerning the eternal soul are actually knowledge. Elsewhere it is said, apaśyatām ātma-tattvaṁ gṛheṣu gṛha-medhinām: those who are attached to the bodily conception of life and who thus stick to life as a gṛhastha, or householder, on the platform of material sense enjoyment, cannot see the welfare of the eternal soul. Prahlāda Mahārāja confirmed this by saying that if one wants success in life, he should immediately understand from the right sources what his self-interest is and how he should mold his life in spiritual consciousness. One should understand himself to be part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa and thus completely take shelter of His lotus feet for guaranteed spiritual success. Everyone in the material world is in the bodily conception, struggling hard for existence, life after life. Prahlāda Mahārāja therefore recommended that to stop this material condition of repeated birth and death, one should go to the forest (vana).", + "In the varṇāśrama system, one first becomes a brahmacārī, then a gṛhastha, a vānaprastha and finally a sannyāsī. Going to the forest means accepting vānaprastha life, which is between gṛhastha life and sannyāsa. As confirmed in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa (3.8.9), varṇāśramācāravatā puruṣeṇa paraḥ pumān viṣṇur ārādhyate: by accepting the institution of varṇa and āśrama, one can very easily elevate himself to the platform of worshiping Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Otherwise, if one remains in the bodily conception, one must rot within this material world, and his life will be a failure. Society must have divisions of brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra, and for spiritual advancement one must gradually develop as a brahmacārī, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsī.

The actual fact is that everyone is a servant of the Lord, as confirmed in Caitanya-caritāmṛta by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu (jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa'). As servants of the Lord, we are one, and there can be no questions of enmity or friendship. If one actually understands that every one of us is a servant of the Lord, where is the question of enemy or friend?", + "Everyone should be friendly for the service of the Lord. Everyone should praise another's service to the Lord and not be proud of his own service. This is the way of Vaiṣṇava thinking, Vaikuṇṭha thinking. There may be rivalries and apparent competition between servants in performing service, but in the Vaikuṇṭha planets the service of another servant is appreciated, not condemned. This is Vaikuṇṭha competition. There is no question of enmity between servants. Everyone should be allowed to render service to the Lord to the best of his ability, and everyone should appreciate the service of others. Such are the activities of Vaikuṇṭha. Since everyone is a servant, everyone is on the same platform and is allowed to serve the Lord according to his ability. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15), sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca: the Lord is situated in everyone's heart, giving dictation according to the attitude of the servant. However, the Lord gives different dictation to the nondevotees and devotees. The nondevotees challenge the authority of the Supreme Lord, and therefore the Lord dictates in such a way that the nondevotees forget the Lord's service, life after life, and are punished by the laws of nature. But when a devotee very sincerely wants to render service to the Lord, the Lord dictates in a different way. As the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (10.10):", + "teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ
bhajatāṁ prīti-pūrvakam
dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ taṁ
yena mām upayānti te", + "\"To those who are constantly devoted and worship Me with love, I give the understanding by which they can come to Me.\" Everyone is actually a servant, not an enemy or friend, and everyone is working under different directions from the Lord, who directs each living entity according to his mentality." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/13.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/13.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bb59e145 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/13.json @@ -0,0 +1,129 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 13, + "reference": "SB 7.5.13", + "devanagari": "स एष आत्मा स्वपरेत्य् अबुद्धिभिर्दुरत्ययानुक्रमणो निरूप्यते\nमुह्यन्ति यद्वर्त्मनि वेदवादिनो ब्रह्मादयो ह्य् एष भिनत्ति मे मतिम्", + "transliteration": "sa eṣa ātmā sva-parety abuddhibhir\nduratyayānukramaṇo nirūpyate\nmuhyanti yad-vartmani veda-vādino\nbrahmādayo hy eṣa bhinatti me matim", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "He" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "Supersoul situated in everyone's heart" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-para", + "meanings": [ + "this is my own business, and that is someone else's" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abuddhibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by those who have such bad intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duratyaya", + "meanings": [ + "very difficult to follow" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anukramaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirūpyate", + "meanings": [ + "is ascertained (by scriptures or the instructions of the spiritual master)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "muhyanti", + "meanings": [ + "are bewildered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "of whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vartmani", + "meanings": [ + "on the path" + ] + }, + { + "word": "veda-vādinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the followers of Vedic instructions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma-ādayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the demigods, beginning from Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "this one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhinatti", + "meanings": [ + "changes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my" + ] + }, + { + "word": "matim", + "meanings": [ + "intelligence." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Persons who always think in terms of \"enemy\" and \"friend\" are unable to ascertain the Supersoul within themselves.

Hiraṇyakaśipu found this view deviant, Prahlāda said, because of being unnaturally unattracted by Kṛṣṇa. Hiraṇyakaśipu therefore needed purification.", + "As soon as one is purified of material contamination, he is again attracted by Kṛṣṇa. (sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ tat-paratvena nirmalam).

The words grāhayām āsa literally mean that they tried to induce Prahlāda Mahārāja to accept the paths of dharma, artha and kāma (religion, economic development and sense gratification). People are generally preoccupied with these three concerns, without interest in the path of liberation. Hiraṇyakaśipu, the father of Prahlāda Mahārāja, was simply interested in gold and sense enjoyment. The word hiraṇya means \"gold,\" and kaśipu refers to soft cushions and bedding on which people enjoy sense gratification. The word prahlāda, however, refers to one who is always joyful in understanding Brahman (brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā). Prahlāda means prasannātmā, always joyful. Prahlāda was always joyful in worshiping the Lord, but in accordance with the instructions of Hiraṇyakaśipu, the teachers were interested in teaching him about material things. Materialistic persons think that the path of religion is meant for improving their material conditions. The materialist goes to a temple to worship many varieties of demigods just to receive some benediction to improve his material life. He goes to a sādhu or so-called svāmī to take advantage of an easy method for achieving material opulence. In the name of religion, the so-called sādhus try to satisfy the senses of the materialists by showing them shortcuts to material opulence. Sometimes they give some talisman or blessing. Sometimes they attract materialistic persons by producing gold. Then they declare themselves God, and foolish materialists are attracted to them for economic development. As a result of this process of cheating, others are reluctant to accept a religious process, and instead they advise people in general to work for material advancement. This is going on all over the world. Not only now but since time immemorial, no one is interested in mokṣa, liberation. There are four principles—dharma (religion), artha (economic development), kāma (sense gratification) and mokṣa (liberation). People accept religion to become materially opulent. And why should one be materially opulent? For sense gratification. Thus people prefer these three mārgas, the three paths of materialistic life.

Bhaktiḥ pareśānubhavo viraktir anyatra ca (Bhāg. 11.2.42). This is the symptom of pure devotional service. A pure devotee is interested only in devotional service, not in material affairs. To execute devotional service, one should always engage in hearing and chanting about Kṛṣṇa, or Lord Viṣṇu. The process of temple worship is called arcana. How to perform arcana will be explained herein. One should have complete faith in the words of Kṛṣṇa, who says that He is the great well-wishing friend of everyone (suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānām). A devotee considers Kṛṣṇa the only friend. This is called sakhyam. Puṁsārpitā viṣṇau. The word puṁsā means \"by all living entities.\" There are no distinctions permitting only a man or only a brāhmaṇa to offer devotional service to the Lord. Everyone can do so. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (9.32), striyo vaiśyās tathā śūdrās te 'pi yānti parāṁ gatim: although women, vaiśyas and śūdras are considered less intelligent, they also can become devotees and return home, back to Godhead.", + "After performing sacrifices, sometimes a person engaged in fruitive activity customarily offers the results to Viṣṇu. But here it is said, bhagavaty addhā: one must directly offer everything to Viṣṇu. This is called sannyāsa (not merely nyāsa). A tridaṇḍi-sannyāsī carries three daṇḍas, signifying kaya-mano-vākya—body, mind and words. All of these should be offered to Viṣṇu, and then one can begin devotional service. Fruitive workers first perform some pious activities and then formally or officially offer the results to Viṣṇu. The real devotee, however, first offers his surrender to Kṛṣṇa with his body, mind and words and then uses his body, mind and words for the service of Kṛṣṇa as Kṛṣṇa desires.", + "Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura gives the following explanation in his Tathya. The word śravaṇa refers to giving aural reception to the holy name and descriptions of the Lord's form, qualities, entourage and pastimes as explained in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā and similar authorized scriptures. After aurally receiving such messages, one should memorize these vibrations and repeat them (kīrtanam). Smaraṇam means trying to understand more and more about the Supreme Lord, and pāda-sevanam means engaging oneself in serving the lotus feet of the Lord according to the time and circumstances. Arcanam means worshiping Lord Viṣṇu as one does in the temple, and vandanam means offering respectful obeisances. Man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru. Vandanam means namaskuru—offering obeisances or offering prayers. Thinking oneself to be nitya-kṛṣṇa-dāsa, everlastingly a servant of Kṛṣṇa, is called dāsyam, and sakhyam means being a well-wisher of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa wants everyone to surrender unto Him because everyone is constitutionally His servant. Therefore, as a sincere friend of Kṛṣṇa, one should preach this philosophy, requesting everyone to surrender unto Kṛṣṇa. Ātma-nivedanam means offering Kṛṣṇa everything, including one's body, mind, intelligence and whatever one may possess.", + "One's sincere endeavor to perform these nine processes of devotional service is technically called bhakti. The word addhā means \"directly.\" One should not be like the karmīs, who perform pious activities and then formally offer the results to Kṛṣṇa. That is karma-kāṇḍa. One should not aspire for the results of his pious activities, but should dedicate oneself fully and then act piously. In other words, one should act for the satisfaction of Lord Viṣṇu, not for the satisfaction of his own senses. That is the meaning of the word addhā, \"directly.\"", + "anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyaṁ

That is called pure devotional service.\" One should simply satisfy Kṛṣṇa, without being influenced by fruitive knowledge or fruitive activity.", + "The Gopāla-tāpanī Upaniṣad says that the word bhakti means engagement in the devotional service of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, not of anyone else. This Upaniṣad describes that bhakti is the offering of devotional service unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead. To perform devotional service, one should be relieved of the bodily conception of life and aspirations to be happy through elevation to the higher planetary systems. In other words, work performed simply for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord, without any desire for material benefits, is called bhakti. Bhakti is also called niṣkarma, or freedom from the results of fruitive activity. Bhakti and niṣkarma are on the same platform, although devotional service and fruitive activity appear almost the same.", + "The nine different processes enunciated by Prahlāda Mahārāja, who learned them from Nārada Muni, may not all be required for the execution of devotional service; if a devotee performs only one of these nine without deviation, he can attain the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Sometimes it is found that when one performs one of the processes, other processes are mixed with it. That is not improper for a devotee. When a devotee executes any one of the nine processes (nava-lakṣaṇā), this is sufficient; the other eight processes are included. Now let us discuss these nine different processes.", + "(1) Śravaṇam. Hearing of the holy name of the Lord (śravaṇam) is the beginning of devotional service. Although any one of the nine processes is sufficient, in chronological order the hearing of the holy name of the Lord is the beginning. Indeed, it is essential. As enunciated by Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam: by chanting the holy name of the Lord, one is cleansed of the material conception of life, which is due to the dirty modes of material nature. When the dirt is cleansed from the core of one's heart, one can realize the form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead—īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ. Thus by hearing the holy name of the Lord, one comes to the platform of understanding the personal form of the Lord. After realizing the Lord's form, one can realize the transcendental qualities of the Lord, and when one can understand His transcendental qualities one can understand the Lord's associates. In this way a devotee advances further and further toward complete understanding of the Lord as he awakens in realization of the Lord's holy name, transcendental form and qualities, His paraphernalia, and everything pertaining to Him. Therefore the chronological process is śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ. This same process of chronological understanding holds true in chanting and remembering. When the chanting of the holy name, form, qualities and paraphernalia is heard from the mouth of a pure devotee, his hearing and chanting are very pleasing. Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī has forbidden us to hear the chanting of an artificial devotee or nondevotee.", + "Hearing from the text of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is considered the most important process of hearing. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is full of transcendental chanting of the holy name, and therefore the chanting and hearing of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are transcendentally full of mellows. The transcendental holy name of the Lord may be heard and chanted accordingly to the attraction of the devotee. One may chant the holy name of Lord Kṛṣṇa, or one may chant the holy name of Lord Rāma or Nṛsiṁhadeva (rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan). The Lord has innumerable forms and names, and devotees may meditate upon a particular form and chant the holy name according to his attraction. The best course is to hear of the holy name, form and so on from a pure devotee of the same standard as oneself. In other words, one who is attached to Kṛṣṇa should chant and hear from other pure devotees who are also attached to Lord Kṛṣṇa. The same principle applies for devotees attracted by Lord Rāma, Lord Nṛsiṁha and other forms of the Lord. Because Kṛṣṇa is the ultimate form of the Lord (kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam), it is best to hear about Lord Kṛṣṇa's name, form and pastimes from a realized devotee who is particularly attracted by the form of Lord Kṛṣṇa. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, great devotees like Śukadeva Gosvāmī have specifically described Lord Kṛṣṇa's holy name, form and qualities. Unless one hears about the holy name, form and qualities of the Lord, one cannot clearly understand the other processes of devotional service. Therefore Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu recommends that one chant the holy name of Kṛṣṇa. Paraṁ vijayate śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtanam. If one is fortunate enough to hear from the mouth of realized devotees, he is very easily successful on the path of devotional service. Therefore hearing of the holy name, form and qualities of the Lord is essential.", + "In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.5.11) there is this verse:", + "tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavo

Therefore even if such verses are improperly composed, devotees hear them, describe them and accept them as bona fide and authorized.\" In this connection, Śrīdhara Svāmī has remarked that a pure devotee takes advantage of another pure devotee by trying to hear from him about the holy name, form and qualities of the Lord. If there is no such opportunity, he alone chants and hears the Lord's holy name.", + "(2) Kīrtanam. The hearing of the holy name has been described above. Now let us try to understand the chanting of the holy name, which is the second item in the consecutive order. It is recommended that such chanting be performed very loudly. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Nārada Muni says that without shame he began traveling all over the world, chanting the holy name of the Lord. Similarly, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has advised:", + "tṛṇād api sunīcena

Such qualifications make it easier to chant the holy name of the Lord. The process of transcendental chanting can be easily performed by anyone. Even if one is physically unfit, classified lower than others, devoid of material qualifications or not at all elevated in terms of pious activities, the chanting of the holy name is beneficial. An aristocratic birth, an advanced education, beautiful bodily features, wealth and similar results of pious activities are all unnecessary for advancement in spiritual life, for one can very easily advance simply by chanting the holy name. It is understood from the authoritative source of Vedic literature that especially in this age, Kali-yuga, people are generally short-living, extremely bad in their habits, and inclined to accept methods of devotional service that are not bona fide. Moreover, they are always disturbed by material conditions, and they are mostly unfortunate. Under the circumstances, the performance of other processes, such as yajña, dāna, tapaḥ and kriyā—sacrifices, charity and so on—are not at all possible.

Kīrtanād eva kṛṣṇasya mukta-saṅgaḥ paraṁ vrajet: simply by chanting the holy name of Kṛṣṇa, one is liberated and returns home, back to Godhead.

From Sanat-kumāra it is understood that even if a person is a severe offender in many ways, he is freed from offensive life if he takes shelter of the Lord's holy name. Indeed, even if a human being is no better than a two-legged animal, he will be liberated if he takes shelter of the holy name of the Lord. One should therefore be very careful not to commit offenses at the lotus feet of the Lord's holy name. The offenses are described as follows: (a) to blaspheme a devotee, especially a devotee engaged in broadcasting the glories of the holy name, (b) to consider the name of Lord Śiva or any other demigod to be equally as powerful as the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead (no one is equal to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, nor is anyone superior to Him), (c) to disobey the instructions of the spiritual master, (d) to blaspheme the Vedic literatures and literatures compiled in pursuance of the Vedic literatures, (e) to comment that the glories of the holy name of the Lord are exaggerated, (f) to interpret the holy name in a deviant way, (g) to commit sinful activities on the strength of chanting the holy name, (h) to compare the chanting of the holy name to pious activities, (i) to instruct the glories of the holy name to a person who has no understanding of the chanting of the holy name, (j) not to awaken in transcendental attachment for the chanting of the holy name, even after hearing all these scriptural injunctions.", + "There is no way to atone for any of these offenses. It is therefore recommended that an offender at the feet of the holy name continue to chant the holy name twenty-four hours a day. Constant chanting of the holy name will make one free of offenses, and then he will gradually be elevated to the transcendental platform on which he can chant the pure holy name and thus become a lover of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "It is recommended that even if one commits offenses, one should continue chanting the holy name. In other words, the chanting of the holy name makes one offenseless. In the book Nāma-kaumudī it is recommended that if one is an offender at the lotus feet of a Vaiṣṇava, he should submit to that Vaiṣṇava and be excused; similarly, if one is an offender in chanting the holy name, he should submit to the holy name and thus be freed from his offenses. In this connection there is the following statement, spoken by Dakṣa to Lord Śiva: \"I did not know the glories of your personality, and therefore I committed an offense at your lotus feet in the open assembly. You are so kind, however, that you did not accept my offense. Instead, when I was falling down because of accusing you, you saved me by your merciful glance. You are most great. Kindly excuse me and be satisfied with your own exalted qualities.\"", + "One should be very humble and meek to offer one's desires and chant prayers composed in glorification of the holy name, such as ayi mukta-kulair upāsya mānam and nivṛtta-tarṣair upagīyamānād. One should chant such prayers to become free from offenses at the lotus feet of the holy name.", + "(3) Smaraṇam. After one regularly performs the processes of hearing and chanting and after the core of one's heart is cleansed, smaraṇam, remembering, is recommended. In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (2.1.11) Śukadeva Gosvāmī tells King Parīkṣit:", + "etan nirvidyamānānām
icchatām akuto-bhayam
yogināṁ nṛpa nirṇītaṁ
harer nāmānukīrtanam", + "\"O King, for great yogīs who have completely renounced all material connections, for those who desire all material enjoyment and for those who are self-satisfied by dint of transcendental knowledge, constant chanting of the holy name of the Lord is recommended.\" According to different relationships with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, there are varieties of nāmānukīrtanam, chanting of the holy name, and thus according to different relationships and mellows there are five kinds of remembering. These are as follows: (a) conducting research into the worship of a particular form of the Lord, (b) concentrating the mind on one subject and withdrawing the mind's activities of thinking, feeling and willing from all other subjects, (c) concentrating upon a particular form of the Lord (this is called meditation), (d) concentrating one's mind continuously on the form of the Lord (this is called dhruvānusmṛti, or perfect meditation), and (e) awakening a likening for concentration upon a particular form (this is called samādhi, or trance). Mental concentration upon particular pastimes of the Lord in particular circumstances is also called remembrance. Therefore samādhi, trance, can be possible in five different ways in terms of one's relationship. Specifically, the trance of devotees on the stage of neutrality is called mental concentration.", + "(4) Pāda-sevanam. According to one's taste and strength, hearing, chanting and remembrance may be followed by pāda-sevanam. One obtains the perfection of remembering when one constantly thinks of the lotus feet of the Lord. Being intensely attached to thinking of the Lord's lotus feet is called pāda-sevanam. When one is particularly adherent to the process of pāda-sevanam, this process gradually includes other processes, such as seeing the form of the Lord, touching the form of the Lord, circumambulating the form or temple of the Lord, visiting such places as Jagannātha Purī, Dvārakā and Mathurā to see the Lord's form, and bathing in the Ganges or Yamunā. Bathing in the Ganges and serving a pure Vaiṣṇava are also known as tadīya-upāsanam. This is also pāda-sevanam. The word tadīya means \"in relationship with the Lord.\" Service to the Vaiṣṇava, Tulasī, Ganges and Yamunā are included in pāda-sevanam. All these processes of pāda-sevanam help one advance in spiritual life very quickly.", + "(5) Arcanam. After pāda-sevanam comes the process of arcanam, worship of the Deity. If one is interested in the process of arcanam, one must positively take shelter of a bona fide spiritual master and learn the process from him. There are many books for arcana, especially Nārada-pañcarātra. In this age, the Pañcarātra system is particularly recommended for arcana, Deity worship. There are two systems of arcana—the bhāgavata system and pāñcarātrikī system. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam there is no recommendation of pāñcarātrikī worship because in this Kali-yuga, even without Deity worship, everything can be perfectly performed simply through hearing, chanting, remembering and worship of the lotus feet of the Lord. Rūpa Gosvāmī states:", + "śrī-viṣṇoḥ śravaṇe parīkṣid abhavad vaiyāsakiḥ kīrtane
prahlādaḥ smaraṇe tad-aṅghri-bhajane lakṣmīḥ pṛthuḥ pūjane
akrūras tv abhivandane kapi-patir dāsye 'tha sakhye 'rjunaḥ
sarvasvātma-nivedane balir abhūt kṛṣṇāptir eṣāṁ param
[Brs. 1.2.265]", + "\"Parīkṣit Mahārāja attained salvation simply by hearing, and Śukadeva Gosvāmī attained salvation simply by chanting. Prahlāda Mahārāja attained salvation by remembering the Lord. The goddess of fortune, Lakṣmīdevī, attained perfection by worshiping the Lord's lotus feet. Pṛthu Mahārāja attained salvation by worshiping the Deity of the Lord. Akrūra attained salvation by offering prayers, Hanumān by rendering service, Arjuna by establishing friendship with the Lord, and Bali Mahārāja by offering everything to the service of the Lord.\" All these great devotees served the Lord according to a particular process, but every one of them attained salvation and became eligible to return home, back to Godhead. This is explained in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.", + "It is therefore recommended that initiated devotees follow the principles of Nārada-pañcarātra by worshiping the Deity in the temple. Especially for householder devotees who are opulent in material possessions, the path of Deity worship is strongly recommended. An opulent householder devotee who does not engage his hard-earned money in the service of the Lord is called a miser. One should not engage paid brāhmaṇas to worship the Deity. If one does not personally worship the Deity but engages paid servants instead, he is considered lazy, and his worship of the Deity is called artificial. An opulent householder can collect luxurious paraphernalia for Deity worship, and consequently for householder devotees the worship of the Deity is compulsory. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement there are brahmacārīs, gṛhasthas, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs, but the Deity worship in the temple should be performed especially by the householders. The brahmacārīs can go with the sannyāsīs to preach, and the vānaprasthas should prepare themselves for the next status of renounced life, sannyāsa. Gṛhastha devotees, however, are generally engaged in material activities, and therefore if they do not take to Deity worship, their falling down is positively assured. Deity worship means following the rules and regulations precisely. That will keep one steady in devotional service. Generally householders have children, and then the wives of the householders should be engaged in caring for the children, just as women acting as teachers care for the children in a nursery school.", + "Gṛhastha devotees must adopt the arcana-vidhi, or Deity worship according to the suitable arrangements and directions given by the spiritual master. Regarding those unable to take to the Deity worship in the temple, there is the following statement in the Agni Purāṇa. Any householder devotee circumstantially unable to worship the Deity must at least see the Deity worship, and in this way he may achieve success also. The special purpose of Deity worship is to keep oneself always pure and clean. Gṛhastha devotees should be actual examples of cleanliness.", + "Deity worship should be continued along with hearing and chanting. Therefore every mantra is preceded by the word namaḥ. In all the mantras there are specific potencies, of which the gṛhastha devotees must take advantage. There are many mantras preceded by the word namaḥ, but if one chants the holy name of the Lord, he receives the result of chanting namaḥ many times. By chanting the holy name of the Lord, one can reach the platform of love of Godhead. One might ask, then what is the necessity of being initiated? The answer is that even though the chanting of the holy name is sufficient to enable one to progress in spiritual life to the standard of love of Godhead, one is nonetheless susceptible to contamination because of possessing a material body. Consequently, special stress is given to the arcana-vidhi. One should therefore regularly take advantage of both the bhāgavata process and pāñcarātrikī process.", + "Deity worship has two divisions, namely pure and mixed with fruitive activities. For one who is steady, Deity worship is compulsory. Observing the various types of festivals, such as Śrī Janmāṣṭamī, Rāma-navamī and Nṛsiṁha-caturdaśī, is also included in the process of Deity worship. In other words, it is compulsory for householder devotees to observe these festivals.", + "Now let us discuss the offenses in Deity worship. The following are offenses: (a) to enter the temple with shoes or being carried on a palanquin, (b) not to observe the prescribed festivals, (c) to avoid offering obeisances in front of the Deity, (d) to offer prayers in an unclean state, not having washed one's hands after eating, (e) to offer obeisances with one hand, (f) to circumambulate directly in front of the Deity, (g) to spread one's legs before the Deity, (h) to sit before the Deity while holding one's ankles with one's hands, (i) to lie down before the Deity, (j) to eat before the Deity, (k) to speak lies before the Deity, (l) to address someone loudly before the Deity, (m) to talk nonsense before the Deity, (n) to cry before the Deity, (o) to argue before the Deity, (p) to chastise someone before the Deity, (q) to show someone favor before the Deity, (r) to use harsh words before the Deity, (s) to wear a woolen blanket before the Deity, (t) to blaspheme someone before the Deity, (u) to worship someone else before the Deity, (v) to use vulgar language before the Deity, (w) to pass air before the Deity, (x) to avoid very opulent worship of the Deity, even though one is able to perform it, (y) to eat something not offered to the Deity, (z) to avoid offering fresh fruits to the Deity according to the season, (aa) to offer food to the Deity which has already been used or from which has first been given to others (in other words, food should not be distributed to anyone else until it has been offered to the Deity), (bb) to sit with one's back toward the Deity, (cc) to offer obeisances to someone else in front of the Deity, (dd) not to chant proper prayers when offering obeisances to the spiritual master, (ee) to praise oneself before the Deity, and (ff) to blaspheme the demigods. In the worship of the Deity, these thirty-two offenses should be avoided.", + "In the Varāha Purāṇa the following offenses are mentioned: (a) to eat in the house of a rich man, (b) to enter the Deity's room in the dark, (c) to worship the Deity without following the regulative principles, (d) to enter the temple without vibrating any sound, (e) to collect food that has been seen by a dog, (f) to break silence while offering worship to the Deity, (g) to go to the toilet during the time of worshiping the Deity, (h) to offer incense without offering flowers, (i) to worship the Deity with forbidden flowers, (j) to begin worship without having washed one's teeth, (k) to begin worship after sex, (l) to touch a lamp, dead body or a woman during her menstrual period, or to put on red or bluish clothing, unwashed clothing, the clothing of others or soiled clothing. Other offenses are to worship the Deity after seeing a dead body, to pass air before the Deity, to show anger before the Deity, and to worship the Deity just after returning from a crematorium. After eating, one should not worship the Deity until one has digested his food, nor should one touch the Deity or engage in any Deity worship after eating safflower oil or hing. These are also offenses.", + "In other places, the following offenses are listed: (a) to be against the scriptural injunctions of the Vedic literature or to disrespect within one's heart the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam while externally falsely accepting its principles, (b) to introduce differing śāstras, (c) to chew pan and betel before the Deity, (d) to keep flowers for worship on the leaf of a castor oil plant, (e) to worship the Deity in the afternoon, (f) to sit on the altar or to sit on the floor to worship the Deity (without a seat), (g) to touch the Deity with the left hand while bathing the Deity, (h) to worship the Deity with a stale or used flower, (i) to spit while worshiping the Deity, (j) to advertise one's glory while worshiping the Deity, (k) to apply tilaka to one's forehead in a curved way, (l) to enter the temple without having washed one's feet, (m) to offer the Deity food cooked by an uninitiated person, (n) to worship the Deity and offer bhoga to the Deity within the vision of an uninitiated person or non-Vaiṣṇava, (o) to offer worship to the Deity without worshiping Vaikuṇṭha deities like Gaṇeśa, (p) to worship the Deity while perspiring, (q) to refuse flowers offered to the Deity, (r) to take a vow or oath in the holy name of the Lord.", + "If one commits any of the above offenses, one must read at least one chapter of Bhagavad-gītā. This is confirmed in the Skanda-Purāṇa, Avantī-khaṇḍa. Similarly, there is another injunction, stating that one who reads the thousand names of Viṣṇu can be released from all offenses. In the same Skanda-Purāṇa, Revā-khaṇḍa, it is said that one who recites prayers to tulasī or sows a tulasī seed is also freed from all offenses. Similarly, one who worships the śālagrāma-śilā can also be relieved of offenses. In the Brahmaṇḍa Purāṇa it is said that one who worships Lord Viṣṇu, whose four hands bear a conchshell, disc, lotus flower and club, can be relieved from the above offenses. In the Ādi-varāha Purāṇa it is said that a worshiper who has committed offenses may fast for one day at the holy place known as Śaukarava and then bathe in the Ganges.", + "In the process of worshiping the Deity it is sometimes enjoined that one worship the Deity within the mind. In the Padma Purāṇa, Uttara-khaṇḍa, it is said, \"All persons can generally worship within the mind.\" The Gautamīya Tantra states, \"For a sannyāsī who has no home, worship of the Deity within the mind is recommended.\" In the Nārada-pañcarātra it is stated by Lord Nārāyaṇa that worship of the Deity within the mind is called mānasa-pūjā. One can become free from the four miseries by this method. Sometimes worship from the mind can be independently executed. According to the instruction of Avirhotra Muni, one of the nava-yogendras, as mentioned in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, one may worship the Deity by chanting all the mantras. Eight kinds of Deities are mentioned in the śāstra, and the mental Deity is one of them. In this regard, the following description is given in the Brahma-vaivarta Purāṇa.", + "In the city of Pratiṣṭhāna-pura, long ago, there resided a brāhmaṇa who was poverty-stricken but innocent and not dissatisfied. One day he heard a discourse in an assembly of brāhmaṇas concerning how to worship the Deity in the temple. In that meeting, he also heard that the Deity may be worshiped within the mind. After this incident, the brāhmaṇa, having bathed in the Godāvarī River, began mentally worshiping the Deity. He would wash the temple within his mind, and then in his imagination he would bring water from all the sacred rivers in golden and silver waterpots. He collected all kinds of valuable paraphernalia for worship, and he worshiped the Deity very gorgeously, beginning from bathing the Deity and ending with offering ārati. Thus he felt great happiness. After many years had passed in this way, one day within his mind he cooked nice sweet rice with ghee to worship the Deity. He placed the sweet rice on a golden dish and offered it to Lord Kṛṣṇa, but he felt that the sweet rice was very hot, and therefore he touched it with his finger. He immediately felt that his finger had been burned by the hot sweet rice, and thus he began to lament. While the brāhmaṇa was in pain, Lord Viṣṇu in Vaikuṇṭha began smiling, and the goddess of fortune inquired from the Lord why He was smiling. Lord Viṣṇu then ordered His associates to bring the brāhmaṇa to Vaikuṇṭha. Thus the brāhmaṇa attained the liberation of sāmīpya, the facility of living near the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "(6) Vandanam. Although prayers are a part of Deity worship, they may be considered separately like the other items, such as hearing and chanting, and therefore separate statements are given herewith. The Lord has unlimited transcendental qualities and opulences, and one who feels influenced by the Lord's qualities in various activities offers prayers to the Lord. In this way he becomes successful. In this connection, the following are some of the offenses to be avoided: (a) to offer obeisances on one hand, (b) to offer obeisances with one's body covered, (c) to show one's back to the Deity, (d) to offer obeisances on the left side of the Deity, (e) to offer obeisances very near the Deity.", + "(7) Dāsyam. There is the following statement in regard to assisting the Lord as a servant. After many, many thousands of births, when one comes to understand that he is an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, one can deliver others from this universe. If one simply continues to think that he is an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, even without performing any other process of devotional service, he can attain full success, for simply by this feeling one can perform all nine processes of devotional service.", + "(8) Sakhyam. In regard to worshiping the Lord as a friend, the Agastya-saṁhitā states that a devotee engaged in performing devotional service by śravaṇam and kīrtanam sometimes wants to see the Lord personally, and for this purpose he resides in the temple. Elsewhere there is this statement: \"O my Lord, Supreme Personality and eternal friend, although You are full of bliss and knowledge, You have become the friend of the residents of Vṛndāvana. How fortunate are these devotees!\" In this statement the word \"friend\" is specifically used to indicate intense love. Friendship, therefore, is better than servitude. In the stage above dāsya-rasa, the devotee accepts the Supreme Personality of Godhead as a friend. This is not at all astonishing, for when a devotee is pure in heart the opulence of his worship of the Deity diminishes as spontaneous love for the Personality of Godhead is manifested. In this regard, Śrīdhara Svāmī mentions Śrīdāma Vipra, who expressed to himself his feelings of obligation, thinking, \"Life after life, may I be connected with Kṛṣṇa in this friendly attitude.\"", + "(9) Ātma-nivedanam. The word ātma-nivedanam refers to the stage at which one who has no motive other than to serve the Lord surrenders everything to the Lord and performs his activities only to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Such a devotee is like a cow that is cared for by its master. When cared for by its master, a cow is not in anxiety over its maintenance. Such a cow is always devoted to its master, and it never acts independently, but only for the master's benefit. Some devotees, therefore, consider dedication of the body to the Lord to be ātma-nivedanam, and as stated in the book known as Bhakti-viveka, sometimes dedication of the soul to the Lord is called ātma-nivedanam. The best examples of ātma-nivedanam are found in Bali Mahārāja and Ambarīṣa Mahārāja. Ātma-nivedanam is also sometimes found in the behavior of Rukmiṇīdevī at Dvārakā." + ], + "verse_end": 24 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4a650488 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,79 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 7.5.25", + "devanagari": "निशम्यैतत्सुतवचो हिरण्यकशिपुस्तदा\nगुरुपुत्रम् उवाचेदं रुषा प्रस्फुरिताधरः", + "transliteration": "niśamyaitat suta-vaco\nhiraṇyakaśipus tadā\nguru-putram uvācedaṁ\nruṣā prasphuritādharaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "niśamya", + "meanings": [ + "hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suta-vacaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "speech from his son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hiraṇyakaśipuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Hiraṇyakaśipu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tadā", + "meanings": [ + "at that time" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guru-putram", + "meanings": [ + "unto the son of Śukrācārya, his spiritual master" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "spoke" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ruṣā", + "meanings": [ + "with anger" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prasphurita", + "meanings": [ + "trembling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adharaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose lips." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After hearing these words of devotional service from the mouth of his son Prahlāda, Hiraṇyakaśipu was extremely angry.

So-called politicians, erudite scholars and philosophers who read Bhagavad-gītā try to twist some meaning from it to suit their material purposes, but their misunderstandings of Kṛṣṇa will not yield them any profit. Because such politicians, philosophers and scholars are interested in using Bhagavad-gītā as a vehicle for adjusting things materially, for them constant thought of Kṛṣṇa, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, is impossible (matir na kṛṣṇe). As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (18.55), bhaktyā mām abhijānāti: only through devotional service can one understand Kṛṣṇa as He is. The so-called politicians and scholars think of Kṛṣṇa as fictitious. The politician says that his Kṛṣṇa is different from the Kṛṣṇa depicted in Bhagavad-gītā. Even though he accepts Kṛṣṇa and Rāma as the Supreme he thinks of Rāma and Kṛṣṇa as impersonal because he has no idea of service to Kṛṣṇa. Thus his only business is punaḥ punaś carvita-carvaṇānām—chewing the chewed again and again. The aim of such politicians and academic scholars is to enjoy this material world with their bodily senses. Therefore it is clearly stated here that those who are gṛha-vrata, whose only aim is to live comfortably with the body in the material world, cannot understand Kṛṣṇa. The two expressions gṛha-vrata and carvita-carvaṇānām indicate that a materialistic person tries to enjoy sense gratification in different bodily forms, life after life, but is still unsatisfied.

The word śukra means \"semen,\" and ācārya refers to a teacher or guru. Hereditary gurus, or spiritual masters, have been accepted everywhere since time immemorial, but Prahlāda Mahārāja declined to accept such a seminal guru or take instruction from him. An actual guru is śrotriya, one who has heard or received perfect knowledge through paramparā, the disciplic succession. Therefore Prahlāda Mahārāja did not recognize a seminal spiritual master. Such spiritual masters are not at all interested in Viṣṇu. Indeed, they are hopeful of material success (bahir-artha-māninaḥ). The word bahiḥ means \"external,\" artha means \"interest,\" and mānina means \"taking very seriously.\" Generally speaking, practically everyone is unaware of the spiritual world.

The material world is such that a nondevotee father becomes an enemy of a devotee son. Having determined to kill even his son, Hiraṇyakaśipu gave the example of amputating a part of one's body that has become septic and therefore injurious to the rest of the body. The same example, of course, may also be applied to nondevotees. Cāṇakya Paṇḍita advises, tyaja durjana-saṁsargaṁ bhaja sādhu-samāgamam. Devotees actually serious about advancing in spiritual life should give up the company of nondevotees and always keep company with devotees. To be too attached to material existence is ignorance because material existence is temporary and miserable. Therefore devotees who are determined to perform tapasya (penances and austerities) to realize the self, and who are determined to become advanced in spiritual consciousness, must give up the company of atheistic nondevotees. Prahlāda Mahārāja maintained an attitude of noncooperation with the philosophy of his father, Hiraṇyakaśipu, yet he was tolerant and humble.

The demons, the Rākṣasas, can neither see nor touch the Supreme Lord, although they may superficially think that they are striking the Lord's transcendental body with their material weapons. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is described in this verse as anirdeśye. We cannot understand Him to be in a particular place, for He is all-pervasive.

There are two kinds of royal families—one whose members are simply attached to household life and the other consisting of rājarṣis, kings who govern with ruling power but are as good as great saints. Prahlāda Mahārāja wanted to become a rājarṣi, whereas Hiraṇyakśipu wanted him to become a king attached to sense enjoyment (gṛha-medhinām). Therefore in the Āryan system there is varṇāśrama-dharma, by which everyone should be educated according to his position in society's division of varṇa (brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra) and āśrama (brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa).", + "A devotee purified by devotional service is always in the transcendental position above the mundane qualities. Thus the difference between Prahlāda Mahārāja and Hiraṇyakaśipu was that Hiraṇyakaśipu wanted to keep Prahlāda in mundane attachment whereas Prahlāda was above the modes of material nature. As long as one is under the control of material nature, his occupational duty is different from that of a person not under such control. One's real dharma, or occupational duty, is described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (dharmaṁ tu sākṣād bhagavat-praṇītam). As described to his order carriers by Dharmarāja, or Yamarāja, a living being is a spiritual identity, and therefore his occupational duty is also spiritual. The real dharma is that which is advised in Bhagavad-gītā: sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja. One must give up one's material occupational duties, just as one must give up his material body. Whatever one's occupational duty, even according to the varṇāśrama system, one must give it up and engage in one's spiritual function. One's real dharma, or occupational duty, is explained by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa': every living being is an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa. That is one's real occupational duty." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/52.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/52.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..ae259cbb --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/05/verses/52.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 52, + "reference": "SB 7.5.52", + "devanagari": "धर्मम् अर्थं च कामं च नितरां चानुपूर्वशः\nप्रह्रादायोचतू राजन्प्रश्रितावनताय च", + "transliteration": "dharmam arthaṁ ca kāmaṁ ca\nnitarāṁ cānupūrvaśaḥ\nprahrādāyocatū rājan\npraśritāvanatāya ca", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dharmam", + "meanings": [ + "mundane occupational duty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "artham", + "meanings": [ + "economic development" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmam", + "meanings": [ + "sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nitarām", + "meanings": [ + "always" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anupūrvaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "according to order, or from the beginning to the end" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prahrādāya", + "meanings": [ + "unto Prahlāda Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ūcatuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "they spoke" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājan", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praśrita", + "meanings": [ + "who was humble" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avanatāya", + "meanings": [ + "and submissive" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter, Ṣaṇḍa and Amarka systematically and unceasingly taught Prahlāda Mahārāja, who was very submissive and humble, about mundane religion, economic development and sense gratification.", + "purport": [ + "There are four processes for human society—dharma, artha, kāma and mokṣa—and they culminate in liberation.

All these relationships are on the platform of love. Viṣṇu is the center of love for everyone, and therefore the duty of everyone is to engage in the loving service of the Lord. As stated by the Supreme Personality of Godhead (Bhāg. 3.25.38), yeṣām ahaṁ priya ātmā sutaś ca sakhā guruḥ suhṛdo daivam iṣṭam. In any form of life, we are related with Viṣṇu, who is the most beloved, the Supersoul, son, friend and guru. Our eternal relationship with God can be revived in the human form of life, and that should be the goal of education. Indeed, that is the perfection of life and the perfection of education." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/06/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/06/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a3dbbd7b --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/06/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 7.6.3", + "devanagari": "सुखम् ऐन्द्रियकं दैत्या देहयोगेन देहिनाम्\nसर्वत्र लभ्यते दैवाद्यथा दुःखम् अयत्नतः", + "transliteration": "sukham aindriyakaṁ daityā\ndeha-yogena dehinām\nsarvatra labhyate daivād\nyathā duḥkham ayatnataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sukham", + "meanings": [ + "happiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aindriyakam", + "meanings": [ + "with reference to the material senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daityāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "O my dear friends born in demoniac families" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deha-yogena", + "meanings": [ + "because of possessing a particular type of material body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dehinām", + "meanings": [ + "of all embodied living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvatra", + "meanings": [ + "everywhere (in any form of life)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "labhyate", + "meanings": [ + "is obtainable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daivāt", + "meanings": [ + "by a superior arrangement" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "just as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duḥkham", + "meanings": [ + "unhappiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ayatnataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without endeavor." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Prahlāda Mahārāja continued: My dear friends born of demoniac families, the happiness perceived with reference to the sense objects by contact with the body can be obtained in any form of life, according to one's past fruitive activities.

For this purpose Kṛṣṇa personally advises, sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja: \"Give up all other duties and surrender unto Me.\" While in the material world we manufacture so many duties in the name of so many isms, but our actual duty is to free ourselves from the cycle of birth, death, old age and disease. For this purpose, one must first be liberated from material bondage, and especially from household life. Household life is actually a kind of license for a materially attached person by which to enjoy sense gratification under regulative principles. Otherwise there is no need of entering household life.", + "Before entering household life, one should be trained as a brahmacārī, living under the care of the guru, whose place is known as the guru-kula. Brahmacārī guru-kule vasan dānto guror hitam (Bhāg. 7.12.1). From the very beginning, a brahmacārī is trained to sacrifice everything for the benefit of the guru. A brahmacārī is advised to go begging alms door to door, addressing all women as mother, and whatever he collects goes to the benefit of the guru. In this way he learns how to control his senses and sacrifice everything for the guru. When he is fully trained, if he likes he is allowed to marry. Thus he is not an ordinary gṛhastha who has learned only how to satisfy his senses. A trained gṛhastha can gradually give up household life and go to the forest to become increasingly enlightened in spiritual life and at last take sannyāsa. Prahlāda Mahārāja explained to his father that to be freed from all material anxieties one should go to the forest. Hitvātma-pātaṁ gṛham andha-kūpam. One should give up his household, which is a place for going further and further down into the darkest regions of material existence. The first advice, therefore, is that one must give up household life (gṛham andha-kūpam). However, if one prefers to remain in the dark well of household life because of uncontrolled senses, he becomes increasingly entangled by ropes of affection for his wife, children, servants, house, money and so on. Such a person cannot attain liberation from material bondage. Therefore children should be taught from the very beginning of life to be first-class brahmacārīs. Then it will be possible for them to give up household life in the future.", + "To return home, back to Godhead, one must be completely free from material attachment. Therefore, bhakti-yoga means vairāgya-vidyā, the art that can help one develop a distaste for material enjoyment.", + "vāsudeve bhagavati

One who perfectly engages in devotional service is therefore called gosvāmī or svāmī, master of the senses. Unless one is master of the senses, he should not accept the renounced order of life, sannyāsa. A strong inclination for sense enjoyment is the cause of the material body.

Similarly, a professional soldier is recruited into the army, and he accepts such service, with the risk of dying on the battlefield, only for the sake of money. In the same way, merchants go from one country to another on boats at the risk of their lives, or they dive into the water of the sea to collect pearls and valuable gems. Thus it is practically proved—and everyone will admit—that money is sweeter than honey. One may risk everything to acquire money, and this is especially true of rich men who are too attached to household life. Formerly, of course, the members of the higher castes—the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and vaiśyas (everyone but the śūdras)—were trained in the guru-kula to adhere to a life of renunciation and sense control by practicing brahmacarya and mystic yoga. Then they were allowed to enter household life. There have consequently been many instances in which great kings and emperors have given up household life. Although they were extremely opulent and were the masters of kingdoms, they could give up all their possessions because they were trained early as brahmacārīs.

Therefore animals and unintelligent men are called vimūḍha, or ignorant, bewildered, whereas an educated person is called vidvān. The real vidvān is one who tries to understand his own position within this material world. For example, when Sanātana Gosvāmī submitted to the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, his first question was 'ke āmi', 'kene āmāya jāre tāpa-traya'. In other words, he wanted to know his constitutional position and why he was suffering from the threefold miseries of material existence. This is the process of education. If one does not ask, \"Who am I? What is the goal of my life?\" but instead follows the same animal propensities as cats and dogs, what is the use of his education? As discussed in the previous verse, a living being is entrapped by his fruitive activities, exactly like a silkworm trapped in its own cocoon. Foolish persons are generally encaged by their fruitive actions (karma) because of a strong desire to enjoy this material world. Such attracted persons become involved in society, community and nation and waste their time, not having profited from having obtained human forms. Especially in this age, Kali-yuga, great leaders, politicians, philosophers and scientists are all engaged in foolish activities, thinking, \"This is mine, and this is yours.\" The scientists invent nuclear weapons and collaborate with the big leaders to protect the interests of their own nation or society. In this verse, however, it is clearly stated that despite their so-called advanced knowledge, they actually have the same mentality as cats and dogs. As cats, dogs and other animals, not knowing their true interest in life, become increasingly involved in ignorance, the so-called educated person who does not know his own self-interest or the true goal of life becomes increasingly involved in materialism.

Any education or activity not on the brahma-bhūta platform, the platform of self-realization, is considered to be material, and Prahlāda Mahārāja says that anything material cannot be the Absolute Truth, for the Absolute Truth is on the spiritual platform. This is also confirmed by Lord Kṛṣṇa in Bhagavad-gītā (2.45), where He says, traiguṇya-viṣayā vedā nistraiguṇyo bhavārjuna: \"The Vedas mainly deal with the subject of the three modes of material nature. Rise above these modes, O Arjuna. Be transcendental to all of them.\" To act on the material platform, even if one's activities are sanctioned by the Vedas, is not the ultimate goal of life. The ultimate goal of life is to stay on the spiritual platform, fully surrendered to the parama-puruṣa, the supreme person. This is the object of the human mission. In summary, the Vedic ritualistic ceremonies and injunctions are not to be discounted; they are means of being promoted to the spiritual platform.

Does this mean that Nārada Muni transgressed the Vedic injunctions? Certainly he did not. Such injunctions are intended for mundane creatures, but Nārada Muni is transcendental to mundane categories. Nārada Muni is a great saint and is transcendentally situated. Therefore, although he was a young man, he could give shelter to a young woman and accept her service. Haridāsa Ṭhākura also spoke with a young woman, a prostitute, in the dead of night, but the woman could not deviate his mind. Instead, she became a Vaiṣṇavī, a pure devotee, by the benediction of Haridāsa Ṭhākura. Ordinary persons, however, should not imitate such highly elevated devotees. Ordinary persons must strictly observe the rules and regulations by staying aloof from the association of women. No one should imitate Nārada Muni or Haridāsa Ṭhākura. It is said, vaiṣṇavera kriyā-mudrā vijñe nā bujhaya. Even if a man is very advanced in learning, he cannot understand the behavior of a Vaiṣṇava. Anyone can take shelter of a pure Vaiṣṇava, without fear. Therefore in the previous verse it has been distinctly said, devarṣer antike sākuto-bhayā: Kayādhu, the mother of Prahlāda Mahārāja, stayed under the protection of Nārada Muni without fear from any direction. Similarly, Nārada Muni, in his transcendental position, stayed with the young woman without fear of deviation. Nārada Muni, Haridāsa Ṭhākura and similar ācāryas especially empowered to broadcast the glories of the Lord cannot be brought down to the material platform.

The foolish theory of modern chemists that life can be produced by chemical interactions cannot be accepted as truth. The birth of a human being's material body takes place due to a mixture of the ovum and semen, but the history of birth is that although the ovum and semen mix together after sex, there is not always pregnancy. Unless the soul enters the mixture, there is no possibility of pregnancy, but when the soul takes shelter of the mixture the body takes birth, exists, grows, transforms and dwindles, and ultimately it is vanquished.

In the Vedas it is said, nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām: the Lord is the chief individual living entity, the leader of the subordinate living entities. Because the living entities are parts or samples of God, their qualities are not different from those of the Supreme Lord. The living entities have the same qualities as the Lord, just as a drop of sea water is composed of the same chemicals as the great sea itself. Thus there is oneness in quality but a difference in quantity. One can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead by understanding the sample, the living entity, because all the qualities of God exist in a minute quantity in the living entities. There is oneness, but God is great whereas the living entities are extremely small. Aṇor aṇīyān mahato mahīyān (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 1.2.20). The living entities are smaller than the atom, but God is greater than the greatest. Our conception of greatness may be represented by the sky because we think of the sky as being unlimitedly big, but God is bigger than the sky. Similarly, we have knowledge that the living entities are smaller than atoms, being one ten-thousandth the size of the tip of a hair, yet the quality of being the supreme cause of all causes exists in the living entity as well as in the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Indeed, it is due to the presence of the living entity that the body exists and bodily changes take place. Similarly, it is because the Supreme Lord is within this universe that the changes dictated by the material laws occur.", + "The word ekaḥ, meaning \"individual,\" is significant. As explained in Bhagavad-gītā (9.4), mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ. Everything, material and spiritual, including earth, water, air, fire, sky and the living entities, exists on the platform of spirit soul. Although everything is an emanation from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one should not think that the Supreme Lord is dependent upon anything else.", + "Both God and the living entity are fully conscious. As living entities, we are conscious of our bodily existence. Similarly, the Lord is conscious of the gigantic cosmic manifestation. This is confirmed in the Vedas. Yasmin dyauḥ pṛthivī cāntarīkṣam. Vijñātāram adhikena vijānīyāt. Ekam evādvitīyam. Ātma-jyotiḥ samrāḍ ihovāca. Sa imān lokān asṛjata. Satyaṁ jñānam anantam. Asaṅgo hy ayaṁ puruṣaḥ. Pūrṇasya pūrṇam ādāya pūrṇam evāvaśiṣyate. All these Vedic injunctions prove that both the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the minute soul are individual. One is great, and the other is small, but both of them are the cause of all causes—the corporally limited and the universally unlimited.", + "We should always remember that although we are equal to the Supreme Personality of Godhead in quality, we are never equal to Him in quantity. Persons with a small fund of intelligence, finding themselves equal in quality with God, foolishly think that they are equal in quantity also. Their intelligence is called aviśuddha-buddhayaḥ—unpolished or contaminated intelligence. When such persons, after endeavoring hard for many, many lives to understand the supreme cause, are finally in actual knowledge of Kṛṣṇa, Vāsudeva, they surrender unto Him (vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ). Thus they become great mahātmās, perfect souls. If one is fortunate enough to understand his relationship with God, knowing that God is great (vibhu) whereas the living entity is small (aṇu), he is perfect in knowledge. The individual exists in darkness when he thinks that he is the material body and that everything in relationship with the material body belongs to him. This is called ahaṁ mama (janasya moho 'yam ahaṁ mameti). This is illusion. One must give up his illusory conception and thus become fully aware of everything." + ], + "verse_end": 20 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/07/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/07/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1caad872 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/07/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,107 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 7.7.21", + "devanagari": "स्वर्णं यथा ग्रावसु हेमकारः क्षेत्रेषु योगैस्तदभिज्ञ आप्नुयात्\nक्षेत्रेषु देहेषु तथात्मयोगैर् अध्यात्मविद्ब्रह्मगतिं लभेत", + "transliteration": "svarṇaṁ yathā grāvasu hema-kāraḥ\nkṣetreṣu yogais tad-abhijña āpnuyāt\nkṣetreṣu deheṣu tathātma-yogair\nadhyātma-vid brahma-gatiṁ labheta", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "svarṇam", + "meanings": [ + "gold" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "just as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "grāvasu", + "meanings": [ + "in the stones of gold ore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hema-kāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the expert who knows about gold" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣetreṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in the gold mines" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by various processes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-abhijñaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "an expert who can understand where gold is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpnuyāt", + "meanings": [ + "very easily obtains" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣetreṣu", + "meanings": [ + "within the material fields" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deheṣu", + "meanings": [ + "the human bodies and all the rest of the 8,400,000 different bodily forms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā", + "meanings": [ + "similarly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-yogaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by spiritual processes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhyātma-vit", + "meanings": [ + "one who is expert in understanding the distinction between spirit and matter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma-gatim", + "meanings": [ + "perfection in spiritual life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "labheta", + "meanings": [ + "may obtain." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "An expert geologist can understand where there is gold and by various processes can extract it from the gold ore.

Here it is said, yogais tad-abhijñaḥ. This indicates that one who has connected himself with spiritual knowledge can understand that there is a spiritual soul within the body. However, one who is in an animalistic conception of life and has no spiritual culture cannot understand. As an expert minerologist or geologist can understand where there is gold and can then invest his money to dig there and chemically separate the gold from the ore, an expert spiritualist can understand where the soul is within matter. One who has not been trained cannot distinguish between gold and stone. Similarly, fools and rascals who have not learned from an expert spiritual master what is soul and what is matter cannot understand the existence of the soul within the body.

Such a person foolishly thinks that the material body has grown from a combination of chemicals, although he cannot find them. The Vedas inform us, however, that chemical combinations do not constitute the living force; the living force is the ātmā and Paramātmā, and the body grows on the basis of that living force. The fruit of a tree grows and undergoes six kinds of change because of the presence of the tree. If there were no tree, there could be no question of the growth and maturity of fruit. Therefore, beyond the existence of the body are the Paramātmā and ātmā within the body. This is the first understanding of spiritual knowledge explained in Bhagavad-gītā. Dehino 'smin yathā dehe. The body exists because of the presence of the Supreme Lord and the jīva, which is part of the Lord. This is further explained by the Lord Himself in Bhagavad-gītā (9.4):", + "mayā tatam idaṁ sarvaṁ
jagad avyakta-mūrtinā
mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni
na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ", + "\"By Me, in My unmanifested form, this entire universe is pervaded. All beings are in Me, but I am not in them.\" The Supreme Soul exists everywhere. The Vedas enjoin, sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma: everything is Brahman or an expansion of Brahman's energies. Sūtre maṇi-gaṇā iva: everything rests on the Lord, just like pearls strung together on a thread. The thread is the principal Brahman. He is the supreme cause, the Supreme Lord upon whom everything rests (mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyāt). Thus we must study the ātmā and Paramātmā—the individual soul and the Supersoul—upon whom the entire material cosmic manifestation rests. This is explained by the Vedic statement yato vā imāni bhūtāni jāyante. yena jātāni jīvanti." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/07/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/07/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c114b9e9 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/07/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,99 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 7.7.25", + "devanagari": "बुद्धेर्जागरणं स्वप्नः सुषुप्तिर् इति वृत्तयः\nता येनैवानुभूयन्ते सो ऽध्यक्षः पुरुषः परः", + "transliteration": "buddher jāgaraṇaṁ svapnaḥ\nsuṣuptir iti vṛttayaḥ\ntā yenaivānubhūyante\nso 'dhyakṣaḥ puruṣaḥ paraḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "buddheḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the intelligence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jāgaraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "the waking or active state of the gross senses" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svapnaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "dreaming (the activity of the senses without the gross body)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suṣuptiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "deep sleep or cessation of all activities (although the living entity is the seer)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛttayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the various transactions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "they" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anubhūyante", + "meanings": [ + "are perceived" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhyakṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "overseer (who is different from the activities)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the enjoyer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Intelligence can be perceived in three states of activity—wakefulness, dreaming and deep sleep.

The words guru-śuśrūṣayā mean that one should personally serve the spiritual master by giving him bodily comforts, helping him in bathing, dressing, sleeping, eating and so on. This is called guru-śuśrūṣaṇam. A disciple should serve the spiritual master as a menial servant, and whatever he has in his possession should be dedicated to the spiritual master. Prāṇair arthair dhiyā vācā. Everyone has his life, his wealth, his intelligence and his words, and all of them should be offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead through the via medium of the spiritual master. Everything should be offered to the spiritual master as a matter of duty, but the offering should be made to the spiritual master with heart and soul, not artificially to gain material prestige. This offering is called arpaṇa. Moreover, one should live among devotees, saintly persons, to learn the etiquette and proper behavior of devotional service. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura remarks in this connection that whatever is offered to the spiritual master should be offered with love and affection, not for material adoration. Similarly, it is recommended that one associate with devotees, but there must be some discrimination. Actually, a sādhu, a saintly person, must be saintly in his behavior (sādhavaḥ sad-ācārāḥ). Unless one adheres to the standard behavior, one's position as a sādhu, a saintly person, is not complete. Therefore a Vaiṣṇava, a sādhu, must completely adhere to the standard of behavior. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that a Vaiṣṇava, a person initiated into the Vaiṣṇava cult, should be offered the respect befitting a Vaiṣṇava, which means that he should be offered service and prayers.

The words brahma-nirvāṇa refer to connecting with the Absolute Truth, who is realized in three features: brahmeti paramātmeti bhagavān iti śabdyate. One feels brahma-sukha, spiritual happiness, by merging into the impersonal Brahman because the brahmajyoti is the effulgence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Yasya prabhā prabhavato jagad-aṇḍa-koṭi. Yasya prabhā, the impersonal Brahman, consists of the rays of Kṛṣṇa's transcendental body. Therefore whatever transcendental bliss one feels from merging in Brahman is due to contact with Kṛṣṇa. Contact with Kṛṣṇa is perfect brahma-sukha. When the mind is in touch with the impersonal Brahman one becomes satisfied, but one must advance further to render service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, for one's remaining merged in the Brahman effulgence is not always assured. As it is said, āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padaṁ tataḥ patanty adho 'nādṛta-yuṣmad-aṅghrayaḥ: one may merge in the Brahman feature of the Absolute Truth, but there is a chance that one may fall because of not being acquainted with Adhokṣaja, or Vāsudeva. Of course, such brahma-sukha undoubtedly eliminates material happiness, but when one advances through impersonal Brahman and localized Paramātmā to approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead in relationship with Him as a servant, friend, parent or conjugal lover, one's happiness becomes all-pervading. Then one automatically feels transcendental bliss, just as one becomes happy seeing the shining of the moon. One acquires natural happiness upon seeing the moon, but when one can see the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one's transcendental happiness increases hundreds and thousands of times. As soon as one is very intimately connected with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one surely becomes free from all material contamination. Yā nirvṛtis tanu-bhṛtām. This cessation of all material happiness is called nirvṛti or nirvāṇa. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī says in Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu (1.1.38):", + "brahmānando bhaved eṣa
cet parārdha-guṇīkṛtaḥ
naiti bhakti-sukhāmbhodheḥ

mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām", + "\"One who is transcendentally situated at once realizes the Supreme Brahman and becomes fully joyful. He never laments nor desires to have anything; he is equally disposed toward all living entities. In that state he attains pure devotional service unto the Lord.\" (Bg. 18.54) If one advances further from the brahma-nirvāṇa platform, one enters the stage of devotional service (mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām). The word adhokṣajālambham refers to keeping the mind always engaged in the Absolute Truth, who is beyond the mind and material speculation. Sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. This is the result of Deity worship. By constantly engaging in the service of the Lord and thinking of His lotus feet, one is automatically freed from all material contamination.

The history of the world has factually proved that attempts to increase economic development for bodily comfort through the advancement of material civilization have done nothing to remedy the inevitability of birth, death, old age and disease. Everyone has knowledge of huge empires throughout the history of the world—the Roman Empire, the Moghul Empire, the British Empire and so on—but all the societies engaged in such economic development (sarve 'rtha-kāmāḥ) have been frustrated by the laws of nature through periodic wars, pestilence, famine and so on. Thus all their attempts have been flickering and temporary. In this verse, therefore, it is said, kurvanti martyasya kiyat priyaṁ calāḥ: one may be very proud of possessing a vast empire, but such empires are impermanent; after one hundred or two hundred years, everything is finished. All such positions of economic development, although created with great endeavor and hardship, are vanquished very soon. Therefore they have been described as calāḥ. An intelligent man should conclude that material economic development is not at all pleasing. The entire world is described in Bhagavad-gītā as duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam—miserable and temporary. Economic development may be pleasing for some time, but it cannot endure. Thus many big businessmen are now very morose because they are being harassed by various plundering governments. In conclusion, why should one waste his time for so-called economic development, which is neither permanent nor pleasing to the soul?", + "On the other hand, our relationship with Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is eternal. Nitya-siddha kṛṣṇa-prema. The pure souls are eternally in love with Kṛṣṇa, and this permanent love, either as a servant, a friend, a parent or a conjugal lover, is not at all difficult to revive. Especially in this age, the concession is that simply by chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra (harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam) one revives his original relationship with God and thus becomes so happy that he does not want anything material. As enunciated by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, na dhanaṁ na janaṁ na sundarīṁ kavitāṁ vā jagad-īśa kāmaye. A very advanced devotee in Kṛṣṇa consciousness does not want riches, followers or possessions. Rāyaḥ kalatraṁ paśavaḥ sutādayo gṛhā mahī kuñjara-kośa-bhūtayaḥ. The satisfaction of possessing material opulences, although perhaps of a different standard, is available even in the lives of dogs and hogs, who cannot revive their eternal relationship with Kṛṣṇa. In human life, however, our eternal, dormant relationship with Kṛṣṇa is possible to revive. Therefore Prahlāda Mahārāja has described this life as arthadam.

This is confirmed by Lord Kṛṣṇa in His instruction in Bhagavad-gītā that this material world is duḥkhālayam, full of material conditions. Vi means viśeṣa, \"specifically,\" and nīta means \"brought in.\" By the mercy of the Supreme Lord, Prahlāda Mahārāja was especially brought to this material world to teach people how to get out of the material condition. Lord Kṛṣṇa says, yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati bhārata. When the entire population, or part of it, becomes forgetful of its own duty, Kṛṣṇa comes. When Kṛṣṇa is not present the devotee is present, but the mission is the same: to free the poor conditioned souls from the clutches of the māyā that chastises them.", + "Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura further explains that the word mandātman means manda—very bad or very slow in spiritual realization. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.1.10), mandāḥ sumanda-matayo manda-bhāgyā. Prahlāda Mahārāja is the guide of all the mandas, or bad living entities who are under the influence of māyā. He is the benefactor even of the slow and bad living entities in this material world. Kula-bheda-karādhama: by his actions, Prahlāda Mahārāja made great personalities who established big, big families seem insignificant. Everyone is interested in his own family and in making his dynasty famous, but Prahlāda Mahārāja was so liberal that he made no distinction between one living entity and another. Therefore he was greater than the great prajāpatis who established their dynasties. The word stabdham means obstinate. A devotee does not care for the instructions of the asuras. When they give instructions, he remains silent. A devotee cares about the instructions of Kṛṣṇa, not those of demons or nondevotees. He does not give any respect to a demon, even though the demon be his father. Mac-chāsanodvṛttam: Prahlāda Mahārāja was disobedient to the orders of his demoniac father. Yama-kṣayam: every conditioned soul is under the control of Yamarāja, but Hiraṇyakaśipu said that he considered Prahlāda Mahārāja his deliverer, for Prahlāda would stop Hiraṇyakaśipu's repetition of birth and death. Because Prahlāda Mahārāja, being a great devotee, was better than any yogī, Hiraṇyakaśipu was to be brought among the society of bhakti-yogīs. Thus Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura has explained these words in a very interesting way as they can be interpreted from the side of Sarasvatī, the mother of learning." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/08/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/08/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f0764385 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/08/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 7.8.6", + "devanagari": "क्रुद्धस्य यस्य कम्पन्ते त्रयो लोकाः सहेश्वराः\nतस्य मे ऽभीतवन्मूढ शासनं किं बलो ऽत्यगाः", + "transliteration": "kruddhasya yasya kampante\ntrayo lokāḥ saheśvarāḥ\ntasya me 'bhītavan mūḍha\nśāsanaṁ kiṁ balo 'tyagāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kruddhasya", + "meanings": [ + "when angered" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "he who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kampante", + "meanings": [ + "tremble" + ] + }, + { + "word": "trayaḥ lokāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the three worlds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saha-īśvarāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with their leaders" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "of that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "of me (Hiraṇyakaśipu)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhīta-vat", + "meanings": [ + "without fear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mūḍha", + "meanings": [ + "rascal" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śāsanam", + "meanings": [ + "ruling order" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "strength" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atyagāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "have overstepped." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My son Prahlāda, you rascal, you know that when I am angry all the planets of the three worlds tremble, along with their chief rulers.

Although there is a tinge of goodness in this material world in terms of the brahminical qualifications, such qualifications sometimes become invisible because of the strong prevalence of the modes of passion and ignorance. But because the Lord is always transcendentally situated, the material modes of passion and ignorance cannot touch Him. Whenever the Lord is present, there cannot be any darkness from the mode of ignorance. It is stated in Caitanya-caritāmṛta (Madhya 22.31):", + "kṛṣṇa—sūrya-sama, māyā haya andhakāra

Where there is Godhead there is no nescience.\" This material world is full of darkness and ignorance of spiritual life, but by bhakti-yoga this ignorance is dissipated. The Lord appeared because of the bhakti-yoga exhibited by Prahlāda Mahārāja, and as soon as the Lord appeared, the influence of Hiraṇyakaśipu's passion and ignorance was vanquished as the Lord's quality of pure goodness, or the Brahman effulgence, became prominent. In that prominent effulgence, Hiraṇyakaśipu became invisible, or his influence became insignificant. An example illustrating how the darkness of the material world is vanquished is given in the śāstra. When Brahmā was created from the lotus stem growing from the abdomen of Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, Lord Brahmā saw everything to be dark, but when he received knowledge from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, everything became clear, as everything becomes clear when one comes from night to sunshine.

The Manus are sometimes incarnations of the Supreme Lord and sometimes empowered living entities. Formerly, many long years ago, Lord Kṛṣṇa instructed the sun-god. The Manus are generally sons of the sun-god. Therefore, while speaking to Arjuna about the importance of Bhagavad-gītā, Kṛṣṇa said, imaṁ vivasvate yogaṁ proktavān aham avyayam vivasvān manave prāha: \"This instruction was given to Vivasvān, the sun-god, who in turn instructed his son Manu.\" Manu gave the law known as Manu-saṁhitā, which is full of directions based on varṇa and āśrama concerning how to live as a human being. These are very scientific ways of life, but under the rule of demons like Hiraṇyakaśipu, human society breaks all these systems of law and order and gradually becomes lower and lower.

Therefore no condition of life is at all pleasing. If one wants the uncontaminated pleasure of blissful life, he must engage himself in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. Material opulence may be somewhat pleasing for the time being, but to come to that temporary pleasing condition one must work extremely hard. When a poor man is rich he may be better situated, but to come to that position he had to accept many miseries. The fact is that in material life, whether one is miserable or happy, both conditions are miserable. If one actually wants happy, blissful life, one must become Kṛṣṇa conscious and constantly engage in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. That is the real remedy. The entire world is under the illusion that people will be happy by advancing in materialistic measures to counteract the miseries of conditional life, but this attempt will never be successful. Humanity must be trained to engage in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. That is the purpose of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.

As soon as a devotee can chant the holy name and glories of the Supreme Lord, he certainly comes to the liberated position. Attachment for glorifying the Lord by hearing and chanting the holy name and activities of the Lord (śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ) certainly brings one to the position where material contamination is absent. One should chant the bona fide songs received from the disciplic succession. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that the chanting is powerful when one follows the disciplic succession (evaṁ paramparā-prāptam imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ). Manufacturing many ways of chanting will never be effective. However, chanting the song or the narration left by the previous ācāryas (mahājano yena gataḥ sa panthāḥ) is extremely effective, and this process is very easy. Therefore in this verse Prahlāda Mahārāja uses the word añjaḥ (\"easily\"). Accepting the thoughts of exalted authorities through disciplic succession is certainly much easier than the method of mental speculation, by which one tries to invent some means to understand the Absolute Truth. The best process is to accept the instructions of the previous ācāryas and follow them. Then God realization and self-realization become extremely easy. By following this easy method, one is liberated from the contamination of the material modes of nature, and thus one can certainly cross the ocean of nescience, in which there are many miserable conditions. By following in the footsteps of the great ācāryas, one associates with the haṁsas or paramahaṁsas, those who are completely freed from material contamination. Indeed, by following the instructions of the ācāryas one is always freed from all material contamination, and thus one's life becomes successful, for one reaches the goal of life. This material world is miserable, regardless of one's standard of life. Of this there is no doubt. Attempts to mitigate the miseries of material existence by material methods will never be successful. One must take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness to become really happy; otherwise happiness is impossible.

They may be beneficial temporarily, but they afford no permanent benefit. Despite the presence of a father and mother, a child cannot be protected from accidental death, disease and various other miseries. No one can help, including the parents. Ultimately the shelter is the Lord, and one who takes shelter of the Lord is protected. This is guaranteed. As the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (9.31), kaunteya pratijānīhi na me bhaktaḥ praṇaśyati: \"O son of Kuntī, declare it boldly that My devotee never perishes.\" Therefore, unless one is protected by the mercy of the Lord, no remedial measure can act effectively. One should consequently depend fully on the causeless mercy of the Lord. Although as a matter of routine duty one must of course accept other remedial measures, no one can protect one who is neglected by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In this material world, everyone is trying to counteract the onslaught of material nature, but everyone is ultimately fully controlled by material nature. Therefore even though so-called philosophers and scientists try to surmount the onslaught of material nature, they have not been able to do so. Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (13.9) that the real sufferings of the material world are four—janma-mṛtyu-jarā-vyādhi (birth, death, old age and disease). In the history of the world, no one has been successful in conquering these miseries imposed by material nature. Prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ. Nature (prakṛti) is so strong that no one can overcome her stringent laws. So-called scientists, philosophers, religionists and politicians should therefore conclude that they cannot offer facilities to the people in general. They should make vigorous propaganda to awaken the populace and raise them to the platform of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

All the activities in both the spiritual and material world are certainly conducted by the orders of the Supreme Personality of Godhead through the agency of either the material or spiritual nature. As further confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (9.10), mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sacarācaram: without the direction of the Supreme Lord, material nature cannot do anything; it cannot act independently. Therefore, in the beginning the living entity wanted to enjoy the material energy, and to give the living entity all facility, Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, created this material world and gave the living entity the facility to concoct different ideas and plans through the mind. These facilities offered by the Lord to the living entity constitute the sixteen kinds of perverted support in terms of the knowledge-gathering senses, the working senses, the mind and the five material elements. The wheel of repeated birth and death is created by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but to direct the bewildered living entity in progress toward liberation according to varied stages of advancement, different directions are given in the Vedas (chandomayam).

In this way he wanders throughout the entire universe, imprisoned in various species and thus engaging in various activities for which he must suffer the reactions.

Therefore He is the Supreme, and only He can deliver the conditioned soul from the onslaught of material nature (mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te). Māyā, the external energy, continuously imposes upon the conditioned souls the suffering of the threefold miseries of this material world. Therefore, in the previous verse, Prahlāda Mahārāja prayed to the Lord, \"But for Your Lordship, no one can save me.\" Prahlāda Mahārāja has also explained that a child's protectors, his parents, cannot save the child from the onslaught of birth and death, nor can medicine and a physician save one from death, nor can a boat or similar means of protection save a person drowning in the water, for everything is controlled by the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

A criminal is put in prison and punished by the government, but the same government, if it likes, can release the criminal from imprisoned life.

As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9), janma karma ca me divyam evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ. One should understand Kṛṣṇa in truth, and this one can do only by serving a pure devotee. Thus Prahlāda Mahārāja prays that Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva place him in touch with a pure devotee and servant instead of awarding him material opulence. Every intelligent man within this material world must follow Prahlāda Mahārāja. Mahājano yena gataḥ sa panthāḥ. Prahlāda Mahārāja did not want to enjoy the estate left by his father; rather, he wanted to become a servant of the servant of the Lord. The illusory human civilization that perpetually endeavors for happiness through material advancement is rejected by Prahlāda Mahārāja and those who strictly follow in his footsteps.", + "There are different types of material opulence, known technically as bhukti, mukti and siddhi. Bhukti refers to being situated in a very good position, like a position with the demigods in the higher planetary systems, where one can enjoy material sense gratification to the greatest extent. Mukti refers to being disgusted with material advancement and thus desiring to become one with the Supreme. Siddhi refers to executing a severe type of meditation, like that of the yogīs, to attain eight kinds of perfection (aṇimā, laghimā, mahimā, etc.). All who desire some material advancement through bhukti, mukti or siddhi are punishable in due course of time, and they return to material activities. Prahlāda Mahārāja rejected them all; he simply wanted to engage as an apprentice under the guidance of a pure devotee." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/09/verses/25.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/09/verses/25.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b514e1e1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/09/verses/25.json @@ -0,0 +1,142 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 25, + "reference": "SB 7.9.25", + "devanagari": "कुत्राशिषः श्रुतिसुखा मृगतृष्णिरूपाः क्वेदं कलेवरम् अशेषरुजां विरोहः\nनिर्विद्यते न तु जनो यद् अपीति विद्वान्कामानलं मधुलवैः शमयन्दुरापैः", + "transliteration": "kutrāśiṣaḥ śruti-sukhā mṛgatṛṣṇi-rūpāḥ\nkvedaṁ kalevaram aśeṣa-rujāṁ virohaḥ\nnirvidyate na tu jano yad apīti vidvān\nkāmānalaṁ madhu-lavaiḥ śamayan durāpaiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kutra", + "meanings": [ + "where" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśiṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "benedictions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śruti-sukhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "simply pleasing to hear of" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mṛgatṛṣṇi-rūpāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "exactly like a mirage in the desert" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kva", + "meanings": [ + "where" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalevaram", + "meanings": [ + "body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśeṣa", + "meanings": [ + "unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rujām", + "meanings": [ + "of diseases" + ] + }, + { + "word": "virohaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the place for generating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirvidyate", + "meanings": [ + "become satiated" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "people in general" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat api", + "meanings": [ + "although" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vidvān", + "meanings": [ + "so-called learned philosophers, scientists and politicians" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāma-analam", + "meanings": [ + "the blazing fire of lusty desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madhu-lavaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with drops of honey (happiness)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śamayan", + "meanings": [ + "controlling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "durāpaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very difficult to obtain." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In this material world, every living entity desires some future happiness, which is exactly like a mirage in the desert.

This is the meaning of causeless mercy. The causeless mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead may be bestowed upon anyone, regardless of his position in this material world. Everyone is eligible to worship the Supreme Lord, irrespective of his material position. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (14.26):", + "māṁ ca yo 'vyabhicāreṇa

sa guṇān samatītyaitān
brahma-bhūyāya kalpate", + "\"One who engages in full devotional service, who does not fall down in any circumstance, at once transcends the modes of material nature and thus comes to the level of Brahman.\" Anyone who engages in continuous devotional service to the Lord is situated in the spiritual world and has nothing to do with the material qualities (sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa).", + "Because Prahlāda Mahārāja was situated on the spiritual platform, he had nothing to do with his body, which had been born of the modes of passion and ignorance. The symptoms of passion and ignorance are described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.2.19) as lust and hankering (tadā rajas tamo-bhāvāḥ kāma-lobhādayaś ca ye). Prahlāda Mahārāja, being a great devotee, thought the body born of his father to be born of passion and ignorance, but because Prahlāda was fully engaged in the service of the Lord, his body did not belong to the material world. The pure Vaiṣṇava's body is spiritualized even in this life. For example, when iron is put into a fire it becomes red-hot and is no longer iron but fire. Similarly, the so-called material bodies of devotees who fully engage in the devotional service of the Lord, being constantly in the fire of spiritual life, have nothing to do with matter, but are spiritualized.", + "Śrīla Madhvācārya remarks that the goddess of fortune, the mother of the universe, could not get mercy similar to that which was offered to Prahlāda Mahārāja, for although the goddess of fortune is always a constant companion of the Supreme Lord, the Lord is more inclined to His devotees. In other words, devotional service is so great that when it is offered even by those born in low families, the Lord accepts it as being more valuable than the service offered by the goddess of fortune. Lord Brahmā, King Indra and the other demigods living in the upper planetary systems are situated in a different spirit of consciousness, and therefore they are sometimes troubled by demons, but a devotee, even if situated in the lower planets, enjoys life in Kṛṣṇa consciousness under any circumstances. Parataḥ svataḥ karmataḥ: as he acts himself, as he is instructed by others or as he performs his material activities, he enjoys life in every respect.

According to the service the living entity renders, he automatically receives benedictions from Kṛṣṇa, who does not make distinctions, thinking, \"Here is a person in an intimate relationship with Me, and here is a person I dislike.\" Kṛṣṇa advises everyone to surrender to Him (sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja). One's relationship with the Supreme Lord is in proportion to that surrender and the service one renders unto the Lord. Thus throughout the entire world the higher or lower positions of the living entities are selected by the living entities themselves. If one is inclined to dictate that the Lord grant something, one receives benedictions according to his desires. If one wants to be elevated to the higher planetary systems, the heavenly planets, he can be promoted to the place he desires, and if one wants to remain a hog or a pig on earth, the Lord fulfills that desire also.

This is the process for approaching the Supreme Lord.

This is the secret of success. First one should try to please the spiritual master, and then one should attempt to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura also says, yasya prasādād bhagavat-prasādo. One should not attempt to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead by concoction.

Thus the Supreme Lord extends everywhere, even throughout our bodies, because our bodies are made of material energy, which is the Lord's separated energy. One should realize that since the Supreme Lord spreads throughout one's body and since the individual soul is a part of the Supreme Lord, everything is Brahman (sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma). This realization was achieved by Lord Brahmā after he was purified, and it is possible for everyone. When one is completely in knowledge of ahaṁ brahmāsmi, he thinks, \"I am part of the Supreme Lord, my body is made of His material energy, and therefore I have no separate existence. Yet although the Supreme Lord is spread everywhere, He is different from me.\" This is the philosophy of acintya-bhedābheda-tattva. An example given in this regard is that of the aroma within the earth. In the earth there are aromas and colors, but one cannot see them. Actually we find that when flowers grow from the earth, they appear with different colors and aromas, which they have certainly gathered from the earth, although in the earth we cannot see them. Similarly, the Supreme Lord, by His different energies, spreads throughout one's body and soul, although we cannot see Him. An intelligent man, however, can see the Supreme Lord existing everywhere. Aṇḍāntara-stha-paramāṇu-cayāntara-stham: the Lord is within the universe and within the atom by His different energies. This is the real vision of the Supreme Lord for the intelligent man.

Therefore he told the Lord, paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān puruṣaṁ śāśvataṁ divyam: \"You are the Supreme Brahman, the ultimate, the supreme abode and purifier, the Absolute Truth and the eternal divine person.\" The Lord is parama-puruṣa, the supreme form.

To stop this attraction of the tongue, one is authoritatively advised not to accept meat or similar uneatable things nor to allow the tongue to hanker to drink or smoke.

Rather, one must seek a pure devotee, a servant of the Lord, and engage oneself in the service of such a servant. The more one becomes the servant of the servant, the more one becomes perfect in devotional service. This is also the injunction of Bhagavad-gītā: evaṁ paramparā-prāptam imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ. One can understand the science of the Supreme Personality of Godhead simply by the paramparā system. In this regard, Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says, tāṅdera caraṇa sevi bhakta-sane vāsa: \"Let me serve the lotus feet of the devotees of the Lord, and let me live with devotees.\" Janame janame haya, ei abhilāṣa. Following Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura, one should aspire to be a servant of the Lord's servant, life after life. Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura also sings, tumi ta' ṭhākura, tomāra kukura, baliyā jānaha more: \"O my Lord, O Vaiṣṇava, please consider me your dog.\" One must become the dog of a Vaiṣṇava, a pure devotee, for a pure devotee can deliver Kṛṣṇa without difficulty. Kṛṣṇa se tomāra, kṛṣṇa dite pāra. Kṛṣṇa is the property of His pure devotee, and if we take shelter of a pure devotee, he can deliver Kṛṣṇa very easily. Prahlāda wants to engage in the service of a devotee, and therefore he prays to Kṛṣṇa, \"My dear Lord, kindly give me the shelter of Your very dear devotee so that I may engage in his service and You may then be pleased.\" Mad-bhakta-pūjābhyadhikā. The Lord says, \"Engaging in the service of My devotee is better than trying to engage in My devotional service.\"", + "Another significant point in this verse is that by devotional service Prahlāda Mahārāja does not want to benefit alone. Rather, he prays to the Lord that all of us fallen souls in this material world may, by the grace of the Lord, engage in the service of His servant and thus be delivered. The grace of the Lord is not at all difficult for the Lord to bestow, and thus Prahlāda Mahārāja wants to save the whole world by spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/09/verses/43.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/09/verses/43.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f446a644 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/09/verses/43.json @@ -0,0 +1,127 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 43, + "reference": "SB 7.9.43", + "devanagari": "नैवोद्विजे पर दुरत्ययवैतरण्यास्त्वद्वीर्यगायनमहामृतमग्नचित्तः\nशोचे ततो विमुखचेतस इन्द्रियार्थ मायासुखाय भरम् उद्वहतो विमूढान्", + "transliteration": "naivodvije para duratyaya-vaitaraṇyās\ntvad-vīrya-gāyana-mahāmṛta-magna-cittaḥ\nśoce tato vimukha-cetasa indriyārtha-\nmāyā-sukhāya bharam udvahato vimūḍhān", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvije", + "meanings": [ + "I am disturbed or afraid" + ] + }, + { + "word": "para", + "meanings": [ + "O Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "duratyaya", + "meanings": [ + "insurmountable or very difficult to cross" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaitaraṇyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Vaitaraṇī, the river of the material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvat-vīrya", + "meanings": [ + "of Your Lordship's glories and activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gāyana", + "meanings": [ + "from chanting or distributing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-amṛta", + "meanings": [ + "in the great ocean of nectarean spiritual bliss" + ] + }, + { + "word": "magna-cittaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "whose consciousness is absorbed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śoce", + "meanings": [ + "I am simply lamenting" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimukha-cetasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the fools and rascals who are bereft of Kṛṣṇa consciousness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "indriya-artha", + "meanings": [ + "in sense gratification" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māyā-sukhāya", + "meanings": [ + "for temporary, illusory happiness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bharam", + "meanings": [ + "the false burden or responsibility (of maintaining one's family, society and nation and elaborate arrangements for that purpose)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvahataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who are lifting (by making grand plans for this arrangement)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vimūḍhān", + "meanings": [ + "although all of them are nothing but fools and rascals (I am thinking of them also)." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O best of the great personalities, I am not at all afraid of material existence, for wherever I stay I am fully absorbed in thoughts of Your glories and activities.

Karmīs therefore try to be happy by material adjustment, and jñānīs want to be happy by becoming one with the Supreme. The devotee has no such interest. He is not interested in so-called meditation in the Himalayas or the forest. Rather, his interest is in the busiest part of the world, where he teaches people Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement was started for this purpose. We do not teach one to meditate in a secluded place just so that one may show that he has become very much advanced and may be proud of his so-called transcendental meditation, although he engages in all sorts of foolish materialistic activity. A Vaiṣṇava like Prahlāda Mahārāja is not interested in such a bluff of spiritual advancement.

That is the purpose of the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement. The members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement must be fully convinced that without Kṛṣṇa one cannot be happy.

This is described by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī as vāco vegam. One who wants to say something can show himself to be a big orator, but rather than go on speaking nonsense, better to remain silent. This method of silence, therefore, is recommended for persons very attached to speaking nonsense. One who is not a devotee must speak nonsensically because he does not have the power to speak about the glories of Kṛṣṇa.

If this relationship continues, then real happiness exists eternally between the master and servant. Unfortunately, when this eternal relationship is disturbed, the living entity wants to become separately happy and thinks that the master is his order supplier. In this way there cannot be happiness. Nor should the master cater to the desires of the servant. If he does, he is not the real master. The real master commands, \"You must do this,\" and the real servant immediately obeys the order. Unless this relationship between the Supreme Lord and the subordinate living entity is established, there can be no real happiness. The living entity is āśraya, always subordinate, and the Supreme Personality of Godhead is viṣaya, the supreme objective, the goal of life.

Prahlāda Mahārāja had taken birth in the family of Hiraṇyakaśipu, who was the topmost materialist, and since Prahlāda was the bona fide heir of his father, the Supreme Lord allowed him to enjoy the kingdom created by his father for so many years that no materialist could calculate them. A devotee does not have to desire material opulence, but if he is a pure devotee, there is ample opportunity for him to enjoy material happiness also, without personal endeavor. Therefore, everyone is advised to take to devotional service under all circumstances. If one desires material opulence, he can also become a pure devotee, and his desires will be fulfilled.

Whatever material opulence is within his possession he engages to expand the glories and service of the Lord. A devotee never performs any fruitive or ritualistic ceremony to enjoy the results of such karma. Rather, a devotee knows that karma-kāṇḍa is meant for the less intelligent man.

One who is attracted to karma-kāṇḍa and jñāna-kāṇḍa spoils his existence as a human being.

Thus even when performing devotional service a devotee has to create many enemies. Prahlāda Mahārāja himself had experience of this, for even his father became his enemy. A devotee should expertly manage to think always of the Supreme Lord so that the reactions of suffering cannot touch him. This is the expert management of pāpa-puṇya—pious and impious activities.

Indeed, all the avatāras are described in the authentic scriptures. No one can become an avatāra, or incarnation, although this has become fashionable in the age of Kali. The avatāras are described in the authentic scriptures (śāstras), and therefore before one risks accepting a pretender as an avatāra, one should refer to the śāstras. The śāstras say everywhere that Kṛṣṇa is the original Personality of Godhead and that He has innumerable avatāras, or incarnations. Elsewhere in the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said, rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan: Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Varāha and many others are consecutive expansions of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. After Kṛṣṇa comes Balarāma, after Balarāma is Saṅkarṣaṇa, then Aniruddha, Pradyumna, Nārāyaṇa and then the puruṣa-avatāras—Mahā-Viṣṇu, Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu and Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu.

One who hears and chants can become puṇya, purified of material contamination.", + "Whenever there are references to the avatāras, religious principles are established, and demons who are against Kṛṣṇa are killed. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is spreading all over the world with two aims—to establish Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead and to kill all the pretenders who falsely present themselves as avatāras. The preachers of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement must carry this conviction very carefully within their hearts and kill the demons who in many tactful ways vilify the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa. If we take shelter of Nṛsiṁhadeva and Prahlāda Mahārāja, it will be easier to kill the demons who are against Kṛṣṇa and to thus reestablish Kṛṣṇa's supremacy. Kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam: Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Lord, the original Lord. Prahlāda Mahārāja is our guru, and Kṛṣṇa is our worshipable God. As advised by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde pāya bhakti-latā-bīja.

To attain such perfection, one must undergo a certain process—haṭha-yoga—and through this yoga system the practitioner achieves some uncommon mystic power. The asuras, however, instead of becoming devotees of Kṛṣṇa, utilize this mystic power for their personal sense gratification. Maya Dānava, for example, is mentioned here as mahā-yogī, a great mystic, but his business was to help the asuras. Nowadays we are actually seeing that there are some yogīs who cater to the senses of materialists, and there are imposters who advertise themselves as God. Maya Dānava was such a person, a god among the demons, and he could perform some wonderful feats, one of which is described here: he made a well filled with nectar and dipped the asuras into that nectarean well. This nectar was known as mṛta-sanjīvayitari, for it could bring a dead body to life. Mṛta-sanjīvayitari is also an Āyur-vedic preparation.

Even if one prefers to deviate from this principle he remains a servant because that is his eternal position; but one serves māyā, the illusory, material energy. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, therefore, is an attempt to guide human society to serving the Personality of Godhead instead of serving the material world with no real profit. Our actual experience is that every man, animal, bird and beast—indeed, every living entity—is engaged in rendering service. Even though one's body or one's superficial religion may change, every living entity is always engaged in the service of someone. Therefore, the mentality of service is called the eternal occupational duty. This eternal occupational duty can be organized through the institution of varṇāśrama, in which there are four varṇas (brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra) and four āśramas (brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa).

Therefore, without consideration of one's belonging to a sectarian religion, whether Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist or any other sect, everyone should be taught to become truthful. Similarly, everyone should be taught to be merciful, and everyone should observe fasting on certain days of the month. Everyone should bathe twice a day, cleanse his teeth and body externally, and cleanse his mind internally by remembering the holy name of the Lord. The Lord is one, whether one is Hindu, Muslim or Christian. Therefore, one should chant the holy name of the Lord, regardless of differences in linguistic pronunciation. Also, everyone should be taught to be very careful not to discharge semen unnecessarily. This is very important for all human beings. If semen is not discharged unnecessarily, one becomes extremely strong in memory, determination, activity and the vitality of one's bodily energy. Everyone should also be taught to be simple in thought and feeling and satisfied in body and mind. These are the general qualifications of a human being.

The śāstras especially stress that if one claims to be a brāhmaṇa, he cannot engage in the service of anyone else; otherwise he at once falls from his position and becomes a śūdra. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī and Sanātana Gosvāmī belonged to a very respectful family, but because they engaged in the service of Nawab Hussain Shah—not even as ordinary clerks, but as ministers—they were ostracized from brahminical society. Indeed, they became like Mohammedans and even changed their names. Unless a brāhmaṇa is very pure, he cannot accept charity from others. Charity should be given to those who are pure. Even if one is born in a family of brāhmaṇas, if one acts as a śūdra one cannot accept charity, for this is strictly prohibited. Although the kṣatriyas are almost as qualified as the brāhmaṇas, even they cannot accept charity. This is strictly prohibited in this verse by the word apratigraha. What to speak of the lower social orders, even the kṣatriyas must not accept charity. The king or government may levy taxes upon the citizens in various ways—by revenue duties, customs duties, realization of fines, and so on—provided the king is able to give full protection to his subjects to assure the security of their life and property.

In modern terms, the varṇa-saṅkara are the hippies, who do not follow any regulative injunctions. Another explanation is that when the population is varṇa-saṅkara, no one can know who is on what platform. The varṇāśrama system scientifically divides society into four varṇas and four āśramas, but in varṇa-saṅkara society there are no such distinctions, and no one can know who is who. In such a society, no one can distinguish between a brāhmaṇa, a kṣatriya, a vaiśya and a śūdra. For peace and happiness in the material world, the varṇāśrama institution must be introduced.

One is considered contaminated by the reactions of great sinful activities when one has not been purified according to the methods of the daśa-vidhā-saṁskāra. In Bhagavad-gītā, however, the Lord says, na māṁ duṣkṛtino mūḍhāḥ prapadyante narādhamāḥ: \"Those miscreants who do not surrender unto Me are the lowest of mankind.\" The word narādhama means \"nondevotee.\" Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu also said [Antya 4.67], yei bhaje sei baḍa, abhakta—hīna, chāra. Anyone who is a devotee is sinless. One who is not a devotee, however, is the most fallen and condemned. It is recommended, therefore, that a chaste wife not associate with a fallen husband. A fallen husband is one who is addicted to the four principles of sinful activity—namely illicit sex, meat-eating, gambling and intoxication. Specifically, if one is not a soul surrendered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is understood to be contaminated. Thus a chaste woman is advised not to agree to serve such a husband. It is not that a chaste woman should be like a slave while her husband is narādhama, the lowest of men. Although the duties of a woman are different from those of a man, a chaste woman is not meant to serve a fallen husband. If her husband is fallen, it is recommended that she give up his association. Giving up the association of her husband does not mean, however, that a woman should marry again and thus indulge in prostitution. If a chaste woman unfortunately marries a husband who is fallen, she should live separately from him. Similarly, a husband can separate himself from a woman who is not chaste according to the description of the śāstra. The conclusion is that a husband should be a pure Vaiṣṇava and that a woman should be a chaste wife with all the symptoms described in this regard.

paṇḍitāḥ sama-darśinaḥ", + "\"The humble sage, by virtue of true knowledge, sees with equal vision a learned and gentle brāhmaṇa, a cow, an elephant, a dog and a dog-eater [outcaste].\" (Bg. 5.18) On the spiritual platform, the learned person not only gives up the duality of man and woman, but also gives up the duality of man and animal. This is the test of self-realization. One must realize perfectly that the living being is spirit soul but is tasting various types of material bodies. One may theoretically understand this, but when one has practical realization, then he actually becomes a paṇḍita, one who knows. Until that time, the duality continues, and the conception of man and woman also continues. In this stage, one should be extremely careful about mixing with women. No one should think himself perfect and forget the śāstric instruction that one should be very careful about associating even with his daughter, mother or sister, not to speak of other women. Śrīla Madhvācārya cites the following ślokas in this regard:", + "bahutvenaiva vastūnāṁ

This is a wrong conception of gṛhastha life. In spiritual life, whether one is a gṛhastha, vānaprastha, sannyāsī or brahmacārī, everyone is under the control of the spiritual master. For brahmacārīs and sannyāsīs there are strong restrictions on sexual indulgence. Similarly, there are strong restrictions for gṛhasthas. Gṛhasthas should indulge in sex life only in accordance with the order of the guru. Therefore it is mentioned here that one must follow the orders of the spiritual master (guru-vṛttir vikalpena). When the spiritual master orders, the gṛhastha may accept sex life. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (7.11). Dharmāviruddho bhūteṣu kāmo 'smi: indulgence in sex life without disobedience to the religious rules and regulations constitutes a religious principle. The gṛhastha is allowed to indulge in sex life during the period favorable for procreation and in accordance with the spiritual master's order. If the spiritual master's orders allow a gṛhastha to engage in sex life at a particular time, then the gṛhastha may do so; otherwise, if the spiritual master orders against it, the gṛhastha should abstain. The gṛhastha must obtain permission from the spiritual master to observe the ritualistic ceremony of garbhādhāna-saṁskāra. Then he may approach his wife to beget children, otherwise not. A brāhmaṇa generally remains a brahmacārī throughout his entire life, but although some brāhmaṇas become gṛhasthas and indulge in sex life, they do so under the complete control of the spiritual master. The kṣatriya is allowed to marry more than one wife, but this also must be in accordance with the instructions of the spiritual master. It is not that because one is a gṛhastha he may marry as many times as he likes and indulge in sex life as he likes. This is not spiritual life. In spiritual life, one must conduct one's whole life under the guidance of the guru. Only one who executes his spiritual life under the direction of the spiritual master can achieve the mercy of Kṛṣṇa. Yasya prasādād bhagavat-prasādaḥ. If one desires to advance in spiritual life but he acts whimsically, not following the orders of the spiritual master, he has no shelter. Yasyāprasādān na gatiḥ kuto 'pi. Without the spiritual master's order, even the gṛhastha should not indulge in sex life." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/12/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/12/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d72405da --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/12/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 7.12.12", + "devanagari": "अंजनाभ्यंजनोन्मर्द स्त्र्यवलेखामिषं मधु\nस्रग्गन्धलेपालंकारांस्त्यजेयुर्ये बृहद्व्रताः", + "transliteration": "añjanābhyañjanonmarda-\nstry-avalekhāmiṣaṁ madhu\nsrag-gandha-lepālaṅkārāṁs\ntyajeyur ye bṛhad-vratāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "añjana", + "meanings": [ + "ointment or powder for decorating the eyes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhyañjana", + "meanings": [ + "massaging the head" + ] + }, + { + "word": "unmarda", + "meanings": [ + "massaging the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "strī-avalekha", + "meanings": [ + "to glance over a woman or to paint a woman's picture" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āmiṣam", + "meanings": [ + "meat-eating" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madhu", + "meanings": [ + "drinking liquor or honey" + ] + }, + { + "word": "srak", + "meanings": [ + "decorating the body with garlands of flowers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gandha-lepa", + "meanings": [ + "smearing the body with scented ointment" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alaṅkārān", + "meanings": [ + "decorating the body with ornaments" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tyajeyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "must give up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "those who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bṛhat-vratāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "have taken the vow of celibacy." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Brahmacārīs or gṛhasthas who have taken the vow of celibacy as described above should not indulge in the following: applying powder or ointment to the eyes, massaging the head with oil, massaging the body with the hands, seeing a woman or painting a woman's picture, eating meat, drinking wine, decorating the body with flower garlands, smearing scented ointment on the body, or decorating the body with ornaments.

The temples and monasteries should be used exclusively by devotees who are serious about spiritual advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura explains the word ārambhān as meaning maṭhādi-vyāpārān, which means \"attempts to construct temples and monasteries.\" The first business of the sannyāsī is to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness, but if, by the grace of Kṛṣṇa, facilities are available, then he may construct temples and monasteries to give shelter to the serious students of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

Indeed, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam itself is meant for the paramahaṁsas (paramo nirmatsarāṇām satām). Unless one is in the paramahaṁsa stage, he is not eligible to understand the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. For paramahaṁsas, or sannyāsīs in the Vaiṣṇava order, preaching is the first duty. To preach, such sannyāsīs may accept the symbols of sannyāsa, such as the daṇḍa and kamaṇḍalu, or sometimes they may not. Generally the Vaiṣṇava sannyāsīs, being paramahaṁsas, are automatically called bābājīs, and they do not carry a kamaṇḍalu or daṇḍa. Such a sannyāsī is free to accept or reject the marks of sannyāsa. His only thought is \"Where is there an opportunity to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness?\" Sometimes the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement sends its representative sannyāsīs to foreign countries where the daṇḍa and kamaṇḍalu are not very much appreciated.

This struggle of birth and death in different species may be called the evolutionary process, but in the Western world it has been wrongly explained. Darwin's theory of evolution from animal to man is incomplete because the theory does not present the reverse condition, namely evolution from man to animal. In this verse, however, evolution has been very well explained on the strength of Vedic authority. Human life, which is obtained in the course of the evolutionary process, is a chance for elevation (svargāpavarga) or for degradation (tiraścām punar asya ca). If one uses this human form of life properly, he can elevate himself to the higher planetary systems, where material happiness is many thousands of times better than on this planet, or one may cultivate knowledge by which to become free from the evolutionary process and be reinstated in one's original spiritual life. This is called apavarga, or liberation.", + "Material life is called pavarga because here we are subject to five different states of suffering, represented by the letters pa, pha, ba, bha and ma.

In spite of so much hard labor, at the end we find disappointment. Bha means bhaya, or fear. In material life, one is always in the blazing fire of fear, since no one knows what will happen next. Finally, ma means mṛtyu, or death. When one attempts to nullify these five different statuses of life—pa, pha, ba, bha and ma—one achieves apavarga, or liberation from the punishment of material existence.", + "The word tiraścām refers to degraded life. Human life, of course, provides an opportunity for the best living conditions. As Western people think, from the monkeys come the human beings, who are more comfortably situated. However, if one does not utilize his human life for svarga or apavarga, he falls again to the degraded life of animals like dogs and hogs. Therefore a sane human being must consider whether he will elevate himself to the higher planets, prepare to free himself from the evolutionary process, or travel again through the evolutionary process in higher and lower grades of life. If one works piously one may be elevated to the higher planetary systems or achieve liberation and return home, back to Godhead, but otherwise one may be degraded to a life as a dog, a hog and so on. As explained in Bhagavad-gītā (9.25), yānti deva-vratā devān. Those interested in being elevated to the higher planetary systems (Devaloka or Svargaloka) must prepare to do so.

In Bhagavad-gītā (13.22) it is clearly stated that different forms of life are obtained by association with the three modes of material nature (kāraṇaṁ guṇa-saṅgo 'sya sad-asad-yoni-janmasu). According to one's association with the material qualities of goodness, passion and ignorance in this life, in one's next life one receives an appropriate body.

Actually, however, they cannot be independent. This is foolishness. A foolish civilization is extremely risky, and therefore the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is trying to make people aware of their fully dependent condition under the stringent laws of nature and is trying to save them from being victimized by strong māyā, which is Kṛṣṇa's external energy. Behind the material laws is the supreme controller, Kṛṣṇa (mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sacarācaram). Therefore if one surrenders unto Kṛṣṇa (mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te), one may immediately be freed from the control of external nature (sa guṇān samatītyaitān brahma-bhūyāya kalpate).

Man and woman both seek sexual enjoyment, and when they are united by the ritualistic ceremony of marriage, they are happy for some time, but finally there is dissension, and thus there are so many cases of separation and divorce. Although every man and woman is actually eager to enjoy life through sexual unity, the result is disunity and distress. Marriage is recommended to give men and women a concession for restricted sex life, which is also recommended in Bhagavad-gītā by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Dharmāviruddho bhūteṣu kāmo 'smi: sex life not against the principles of religion is Kṛṣṇa. Every living entity is always eager to enjoy sex life because materialistic life consists of eating, sleeping, sex and fear. In animal life, eating, sleeping, sexual enjoyment and fear cannot be regulated, but for human society the plan is that although men, like animals, must be allowed to eat, sleep, enjoy sex and take protection from fear, they must be regulated. The Vedic plan for eating recommends that one take yajña-śiṣṭa, or prasāda, food offered to Kṛṣṇa. Yajña-śiṣṭāśinaḥ santo mucyante sarva-kilbiṣaiḥ: \"The devotees of the Lord are released from all kinds of sins because they eat food that is offered first for sacrifice.\" (Bg. 3.13) In material life, one commits sinful activities, especially in eating, and because of sinful activities one is condemned by nature's laws to accept another body, which is imposed as punishment. Sex and eating are essential, and therefore they are offered to human society under Vedic restrictions so that according to the Vedic injunctions people may eat, sleep, enjoy sex, be protected from fearful life and gradually be elevated and liberated from the punishment of material existence. Thus the Vedic injunctions for marriage offer a concession to human society, the idea being that a man and woman united in a ritualistic marriage ceremony should help one another advance in spiritual life. Unfortunately, especially in this age, men and women unite for unrestricted sexual enjoyment. Thus they are victimized, being obliged to take rebirth in the forms of animals to fulfill their animalistic propensities. The Vedic injunctions therefore warn, nāyaṁ deho deha-bhājāṁ nṛloke kaṣṭān kāmān arhate vid-bhujāṁ ye. One should not enjoy sex life like hogs, and eat everything, even to the limit of stool. A human being should eat prasāda offered to the Deity and should enjoy sex life according to the Vedic injunctions.

Both the Māyāvādīs and Vaiṣṇavas know that in materialistic activities there is no happiness. The Māyāvādī philosophers, therefore, adhering to the slogan brahma satyaṁ jagan mithyā, want to refrain from false, materialistic activities. They want to stop all activities and merge in the Supreme Brahman. According to the Vaiṣṇava philosophy, however, if one simply ceases from materialistic activity one cannot remain inactive for very long, and therefore everyone should engage himself in spiritual activities, which will solve the problem of suffering in this material world. It is said, therefore, that although the Māyāvādī philosophers strive to refrain from materialistic activities and merge in Brahman, and although they may actually merge in the Brahman existence, for want of activity they fall down again into materialistic activity (āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padaṁ tataḥ patanty adhaḥ). Thus the so-called renouncer, unable to remain in meditation upon Brahman, returns to materialistic activities by opening hospitals and schools and so on. Therefore, simply cultivating knowledge that materialistic activities cannot give one happiness, and that one should consequently cease from such activities, is insufficient. One should cease from materialistic activities and take up spiritual activities. Then the solution to the problem will be achieved. Spiritual activities are activities performed according to the order of Kṛṣṇa (ānukūlyena kṛṣṇānuśīlanam). If one does whatever Kṛṣṇa says, his activities are not material. For example, when Arjuna fought in response to the order of Kṛṣṇa, his activities were not material. Fighting for sense gratification is a materialistic activity, but fighting by the order of Kṛṣṇa is spiritual. By spiritual activities one becomes eligible to go back home, back to Godhead, and then enjoy blissful life eternally. Here, in the material world, everything is but a mental concoction that will never give us real happiness. The practical solution, therefore, is to cease from materialistic activities and engage in spiritual activities. Yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ.

There is danger for a preacher when he receives great quantities of money, for as soon as he spends even a single cent of the collection for his personal sense gratification, he becomes a fallen victim. The preachers of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement should be extremely careful not to misuse the immense quantities of money needed to spread this movement. Let us not make this money the cause of our distress; it should be used for Kṛṣṇa, and that will cause our eternal happiness. Money is Lakṣmī, or the goddess of fortune, the companion of Nārāyaṇa.

But the vaiśyas were satisfied with agricultural produce and milk from the cow, and if by chance there were excess, trade was allowed. The śūdras were also happy, for they would get food and shelter from the three higher classes. In the demoniac civilization of the present day, however, there is no question of brāhmaṇas or kṣatriyas; there are only so-called workers and a flourishing mercantile class who have no goal in life.", + "According to Vedic civilization, the ultimate perfection of life is to take sannyāsa, but at the present moment people do not know why sannyāsa is accepted. Because of misunderstanding, they think that one accepts sannyāsa to escape social responsibilities. But one does not accept sannyāsa to escape from responsibility to society. Generally one accepts sannyāsa at the fourth stage of spiritual life. One begins as a brahmacārī then becomes a gṛhastha, a vānaprastha and finally a sannyāsī to take advantage of the duration of one's life by engaging oneself fully in self-realization. Sannyāsa does not mean begging from door to door to accumulate money for sense gratification. However, because in Kali-yuga people are more or less prone to sense gratification, immature sannyāsa is not recommended.

We recommend that as soon as money accumulates in our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, fifty per cent of it should be invested in printing books, and fifty per cent for expenditures, especially in establishing centers all over the world. The managers of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement should be extremely cautious in regard to this point. Otherwise money will be the cause of lamentation, illusion, fear, anger, material attachment, material poverty, and unnecessary hard work. When I was alone in Vṛndāvana, I never attempted to construct maṭhās or temples; rather, I was fully satisfied with the small amount of money I could gather by selling Back to Godhead, and thus I would provide for myself and also print the literature.

The body is called kṣetra, and there are two kṣetra-jñas, or occupants of the body, namely the Supersoul (Paramātmā) and the individual soul. The Supersoul and the individual soul are like two birds sitting on the same tree (the material body). One bird, the individual, forgetful bird, is eating the fruit of the tree, not caring for the instructions of the other bird, which is only a witness to the activities of the first bird, who is his friend. When the forgetful bird comes to understand the supreme friend who is always with him and trying to give him guidance in different bodies, he takes shelter at the lotus feet of that supreme bird.

When Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu asked Rāmānanda Rāya about the goal of life, Rāmānanda Rāya described it in different ways, according to the recommendations of the revealed scriptures, and finally Śrī Rāmānanda Rāya explained that one may stay in his own position, whether as a brāhmaṇa, a śūdra, a sannyāsī or whatever, but one must try to inquire about life's goal (athāto brahma-jijñāsā). This is the proper utilization of the human form of life. When one misuses the gift of the human form by unnecessarily indulging in the animal propensities of eating, sleeping, mating and defending and does not try to get out of the clutches of māyā, which subjects one to repeated birth, death, old age and disease, one is again punished by being forced to descend to the lower species and undergo evolution according to the laws of nature. Prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ. Being completely under the grip of material nature, the living entity must evolve again from the lower species to the higher species until he at last returns to human life and gets the chance to be freed from the material clutches. A wise man, however, learns from the śāstras and guru that we living entities are all eternal but are put into troublesome conditions because of associating with different modes under the laws of material nature. He therefore concludes that in the human form of life he should not endeavor for unnecessary necessities, but should live a very simple life, just maintaining body and soul together. Certainly one requires some means of livelihood, and according to one's varṇa and āśrama this means of livelihood is prescribed in the śāstras. One should be satisfied with this. Therefore, instead of hankering for more and more money, a sincere devotee of the Lord tries to invent some ways to earn his livelihood, and when he does so Kṛṣṇa helps him. Earning one's livelihood, therefore, is not a problem. The real problem is how to get free from the bondage of birth, death and old age. Attaining this freedom, and not inventing unnecessary necessities, is the basic principle of Vedic civilization. One should be satisfied with whatever means of life comes automatically. The modern materialistic civilization is just the opposite of the ideal civilization.

This is the idea of modern economic development. Everyone is engaged in earning money, and the money is kept in the bank, which then offers money to the public. In this cycle of activities, everyone is engaged in getting more and more money, and therefore the ideal goal of human life is being lost. Concisely, it may be said that everyone is a thief and is liable to be punished. Punishment by the laws of nature takes place in the cycle of birth and death. No one dies fully satisfied by the fulfillment of material desires, for that is not possible. Therefore at the time of one's death one is very sorry, being unable to fulfill his desires.

In all of these activities, of course, householders are involved, and therefore it is advised here, with the use of the word api, that even though one is a householder, one should not engage himself in severe hardships. One's means of livelihood should be extremely simple. As for those who are not gṛhasthas—the brahmacārīs, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs—they don't have to do anything but strive for advancement in spiritual life. This means that three fourths of the entire population should stop sense gratification and simply be engaged in the advancement of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Only one fourth of the population should be gṛhastha, and that should be according to laws of restricted sense gratification. The gṛhasthas, vānaprasthas, brahmacārīs and sannyāsīs should endeavor together with their total energy to become Kṛṣṇa conscious. This type of civilization is called daiva-varṇāśrama. One of the objectives of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is to establish this daiva-varṇāśrama, but not to encourage so-called varṇāśrama without scientifically organized endeavor by human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/11.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/11.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..631082c8 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/11.json @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 11, + "reference": "SB 7.14.11", + "devanagari": "आश्वाघान्ते ऽवसायिभ्यः कामान्संविभजेद्यथा\nअप्य् एकाम् आत्मनो दारां नृणां स्वत्वग्रहो यतः", + "transliteration": "āśvāghānte 'vasāyibhyaḥ\nkāmān saṁvibhajed yathā\napy ekām ātmano dārāṁ\nnṛṇāṁ svatva-graho yataḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ā", + "meanings": [ + "even up to" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śva", + "meanings": [ + "the dog" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agha", + "meanings": [ + "sinful animals or living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ante avasāyibhyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "unto the caṇḍālas, the lowest of men (dog-eaters and hog-eaters)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmān", + "meanings": [ + "the necessities of life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁvibhajet", + "meanings": [ + "should divide" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as much as (deserved)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "even" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekām", + "meanings": [ + "one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dārām", + "meanings": [ + "the wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of the people in general" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svatva-grahaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the wife is accepted as being identical with one's self" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "because of which." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Dogs, fallen persons and untouchables, including caṇḍālas [dog-eaters], should all be maintained with their proper necessities, which should be contributed by the householders.

This kind of sacrifice—chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra and distribution of prasāda—is the most perfect and bona fide way of offering sacrifice for the pleasure of Yajña, or Viṣṇu." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..22cac57f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 7.14.18", + "devanagari": "तस्माद्ब्राह्मणदेवेषु मर्त्यादिषु यथार्हतः\nतैस्तैः कामैर्यजस्वैनं क्षेत्रज्ञं ब्राह्मणान् अनु", + "transliteration": "tasmād brāhmaṇa-deveṣu\nmartyādiṣu yathārhataḥ\ntais taiḥ kāmair yajasvainaṁ\nkṣetra-jñaṁ brāhmaṇān anu", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brāhmaṇa-deveṣu", + "meanings": [ + "through the brāhmaṇas and the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "martya-ādiṣu", + "meanings": [ + "through ordinary human beings and other living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā-arhataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "according to your ability" + ] + }, + { + "word": "taiḥ taiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with all those" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kāmaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "various objects of enjoyment such as sumptuous food, flower garlands, sandalwood paste, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajasva", + "meanings": [ + "you should worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "enam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣetra-jñam", + "meanings": [ + "Supreme Lord situated in the hearts of all beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brāhmaṇān", + "meanings": [ + "the brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anu", + "meanings": [ + "after." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Therefore, my dear King, first offer prasāda unto the brāhmaṇas and the demigods, and after sumptuously feeding them you may distribute prasāda to other living entities according to your ability.

The forest may be in goodness, the cities and villages in passion, and the brothels, hotels and restaurants in ignorance, but when one lives in the temple community he lives in Vaikuṇṭha.

But in Kali-yuga, worship of the Deity is being neglected. Therefore chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is more powerful than Deity worship. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu set a practical example in that He did not establish any temples or Deities, but He profusely introduced the saṅkīrtana movement. Therefore Kṛṣṇa consciousness preachers should give more stress to the saṅkīrtana movement, especially by distributing transcendental literature more and more. This helps the saṅkīrtana movement. Whenever there is a possibility to worship the Deity, we may establish many centers, but generally we should give more stress to the distribution of transcendental literature, for this will be more effective in converting people to Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "It is said in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (11.2.47):", + "arcāyām eva haraye

He certainly engages in worshiping the Deity, but he cannot appreciate the activities of a pure devotee. It has actually been seen that even an authorized devotee who is engaged in the service of the Lord by preaching the mission of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is sometimes criticized by neophyte devotees.

This does not mean, however, that the Vaiṣṇava thinks himself God, for this is blasphemous. Although a brāhmaṇa or Vaiṣṇava is worshiped as being as good as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, such a devotee always remains a faithful servant of the Lord and never tries to enjoy the prestige that might accrue to him from being the Supreme Lord's representative." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/42.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/42.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..61ec42e1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/07/chapters/14/verses/42.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 7, + "chapter": 14, + "verse": 42, + "reference": "SB 7.14.42", + "devanagari": "नन्व् अस्य ब्राह्मणा राजन्कृष्णस्य जगदात्मनः\nपुनन्तः पादरजसा त्रिलोकीं दैवतं महत्", + "transliteration": "nanv asya brāhmaṇā rājan\nkṛṣṇasya jagad-ātmanaḥ\npunantaḥ pāda-rajasā\ntri-lokīṁ daivataṁ mahat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "nanu", + "meanings": [ + "but" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asya", + "meanings": [ + "by Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brāhmaṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the qualified brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājan", + "meanings": [ + "O King" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇasya", + "meanings": [ + "by Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagat-ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who is the life and soul of the whole creation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "punantaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "sanctifying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāda-rajasā", + "meanings": [ + "by the dust of their lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tri-lokīm", + "meanings": [ + "the three worlds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daivatam", + "meanings": [ + "worshipable" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahat", + "meanings": [ + "most exalted." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear King Yudhiṣṭhira, the brāhmaṇas, especially those engaged in preaching the glories of the Lord throughout the entire world, are recognized and worshiped by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the heart and soul of all creation.

In this verse the words ānantyam icchatā refer to persons who desire to achieve liberation from material bondage and merge into the existence of the Lord.

Consequently, when Vaiṣṇavas distribute charity, they do not need to find a brāhmaṇa performing the activities of jñāna-kāṇḍa or karma-kāṇḍa. The best example in this regard is provided by Advaita Gosvāmī, who, after performing the śrāddha ceremony for his father, offered charity to Haridāsa Ṭhākura, although it was known to everyone that Haridāsa Ṭhākura was born in a Mohammedan family, not a brāhmaṇa family, and was not interested in the activities of jñāna-kāṇḍa or karma-kāṇḍa.", + "Charity, therefore, should be given to the first-class transcendentalist, the devotee, because the śāstras recommend:", + "muktānām api siddhānāṁ

If one does not enter the devotional service of the Lord but artificially considers himself Brahman or Nārāyaṇa, not perfectly understanding that the soul and body are different, one certainly falls down (patanty adhaḥ). Such a person again gives importance to the body. There are many sannyāsīs in India who stress the importance of the body. Some of them give special importance to the body of the poor man, accepting him as daridra-nārāyaṇa, as if Nārāyaṇa had a material body. Many other sannyāsīs stress the importance of the social position of the body as a brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya or śūdra. Such sannyāsīs are considered the greatest rascals (asattamāḥ). They are shameless because they have not yet understood the difference between the body and the soul and instead have accepted the body of a brāhmaṇa to be a brāhmaṇa. Brahmanism (brāhmaṇya) consists of the knowledge of Brahman. But actually the body of a brāhmaṇa is not Brahman. Similarly, the body is neither rich nor poor. If the body of a poor man were daridra-nārāyaṇa, this would mean that the body of a rich man, on the contrary, must be dhanī-nārāyaṇa. Therefore sannyāsīs who do not know the meaning of Nārāyaṇa, those who regard the body as Brahman or as Nārāyaṇa, are described here as asattamāḥ, the most abominable rascals.

It is also said, traiguṇya-viṣayā vedāḥ: \"The Vedas deal mainly with the three modes of material nature.\" The Vedas, especially three Vedas, namely Sāma, Yajur and Ṛk, vividly describe this process of ascending to the higher planets and returning.

Those who are not brāhmaṇas but atheists do not know what is pravṛtti-mārga or nivṛtti-mārga; they simply want to obtain pleasure at any cost. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is therefore training devotees to give up the pravṛtti-mārga and accept the nivṛtti-mārga in order to return home, back to Godhead. This is a little difficult to understand, but it is very easy if one takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness seriously and tries to understand Kṛṣṇa.

In this present age of Kali, when people are mandāḥ sumanda-matayaḥ—very bad because of a śūdra mentality—such free mingling is prominent. Among the higher classes—brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya and vaiśya—there is no chance for men to mingle with women freely, but in the śūdra community such mingling is open. Because there is no cultural education in this age of Kali, everyone is spiritually untrained, and everyone is therefore to be considered śūdra (aśuddhāḥ śūdra-kalpā hi brāhmaṇāḥ kali-sambhavāḥ). When all the people become śūdras, certainly they are very bad (mandāḥ sumanda-matayaḥ).

Especially nowadays, we are building skyscrapers and developing other material facilities. We should know, however, that the ingredients of the skyscrapers and machines cannot be manufactured by anyone but the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The whole world is nothing but a combination of the five material elements (tejo-vāri-mṛdāṁ yathā vinimayaḥ). A skyscraper is a transformation of earth, water and fire. Earth and water are combined and burnt into bricks by fire, and a skyscraper is essentially a tall construction of bricks. Although the bricks may be manufactured by man, the ingredients of the bricks are not. Of course, man, as a manufacturer, may accept a salary from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is stated here: tena tyaktena bhuñjīthāḥ. One may construct a big skyscraper, but neither the constructor, the merchant nor the worker can claim proprietorship. Proprietorship belongs to the person who has spent for the building. The Supreme Personality of Godhead has manufactured water, earth, air, fire and the sky, and one can use these and take a salary (tena tyaktena bhuñjīthāḥ). However, one cannot claim proprietorship. This is perfect communism. Our tendency to construct great buildings should be used only for constructing large and valuable temples in which to install the Deity of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Then our desire for construction will be fulfilled.", + "Since all property belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, everything should be offered to the Lord, and we should take only prasāda (tena tyaktena bhuñjīthāḥ).

There is no need for economic development; everything is provided. Therefore one should understand that everything belongs to Kṛṣṇa, and with this idea, one may take prasāda. However, if one interferes with the allotments of others, he is a thief. We should not accept more than what we actually need. Therefore, if by chance we get an abundance of money, we should always consider that it belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In Kṛṣṇa consciousness we are getting sufficient money, but we should never think that the money belongs to us; it belongs to the Supreme Personality of Godhead and should be equally distributed to the workers, the devotees. No devotee should claim that any money or property belongs to him.

When the disciple is awakened from ignorance to knowledge, he can see the Supreme Personality of Godhead everywhere because the Lord actually is everywhere. Aṇḍāntara-stha-paramāṇu-cayāntara-stham. The Lord resides within this universe, He resides within the hearts of all living entities, and He resides even within the atom. Because we lack perfect knowledge, we cannot see God, but a little deliberation can help us to see God everywhere. This requires training. With a little deliberation, even the most degraded person can perceive the presence of God. If we take into account whose property is the vast ocean, whose property is the vast land, how the sky exists, how the numberless millions of stars and planets are set in the sky, who has made this universe and whose property it is, we should certainly come to the conclusion that there is a proprietor of everything. When we claim proprietorship over a certain piece of land, whether individually or for our families or nations, we should also consider how we became the proprietors. The land was there before our birth, before we came to the land. How did it become our property? Such deliberation will help us understand that there is a supreme proprietor of everything—the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "The Supreme Godhead is always awake. In the conditioned stage we forget things because we change our bodies, but because the Supreme Personality of Godhead does not change His body, He remembers past, present and future. Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.1), imaṁ vivasvate yogaṁ proktavān aham avyayam: \"I spoke this science of God—Bhagavad-gītā—to the sun-god at least forty million years ago.\" When Arjuna inquired from Kṛṣṇa how He could remember incidents that had taken place so long ago, the Lord answered that Arjuna was also present at that time. Because Arjuna is Kṛṣṇa's friend, wherever Kṛṣṇa goes, Arjuna goes. But the difference is that Kṛṣṇa remembers everything, whereas the living entity like Arjuna, being a minute particle of the Supreme Lord, forgets. Therefore it is said, the Lord's vigilance is never diminished. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15). Sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca: the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His Paramātmā feature is always present within the hearts of all living entities, and from Him come memory, knowledge and forgetfulness. This is also indicated in this verse by the word suparṇam, which means \"friend.\" In the Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad it is therefore said, dvā suparṇa sayujā sakhāyā samānaṁ vṛkṣaṁ pariṣasvajāte: two birds are sitting on the same tree as friends. One bird is eating the fruit of the tree, and the other is simply observing. This observing bird is always present as a friend to the eating bird and giving him remembrance of things he wanted to do. Thus if we take into account the Supreme Personality of Godhead in our daily affairs, we can see Him or at least perceive His presence everywhere.", + "The words cakṣur yasya na riṣyati mean that although we cannot see Him, this does not mean that He cannot see us. Nor does He die when the cosmic manifestation is annihilated. The example is given in this connection that the sunshine is present when the sun is present, but when the sun is not present, or when we cannot see the sun, this does not mean that the sun is lost. The sun is there, but we cannot see it. Similarly, although we cannot see the Supreme Personality of Godhead in our present darkness, our lack of knowledge, He is always present, seeing our activities. As the Paramātmā, He is the witness and adviser (upadraṣṭā and anumantā). Therefore, by following the instructions of the spiritual master and studying authorized literatures, one can understand that God is present before us, seeing everything, although we have no eyes with which to see Him." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/01/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/01/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..3e75fdc6 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/01/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,137 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 8.1.12", + "devanagari": "न यस्याद्यन्तौ मध्यं च स्वः परो नान्तरं बहिः\nविश्वस्यामूनि यद्यस्माद्विश्वं च तद् ऋतं महत्", + "transliteration": "na yasyādy-antau madhyaṁ ca\nsvaḥ paro nāntaraṁ bahiḥ\nviśvasyāmūni yad yasmād\nviśvaṁ ca tad ṛtaṁ mahat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "neither" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasya", + "meanings": [ + "of whom (the Supreme Personality of Godhead)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ādi", + "meanings": [ + "a beginning" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antau", + "meanings": [ + "end" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madhyam", + "meanings": [ + "middle" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "nor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "antaram", + "meanings": [ + "inside" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "outside" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the whole cosmic manifestation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amūni", + "meanings": [ + "all such considerations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whose form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from He who is the cause of everything" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvam", + "meanings": [ + "the whole universe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "all of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "truth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahat", + "meanings": [ + "very, very great." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Personality of Godhead has no beginning, no end and no middle.

The crocodile, however, being an animal of the water, had no difficulties. He was getting food and was therefore getting mental strength and sensual encouragement. Thus while the elephant became reduced in strength, the crocodile became more and more powerful. Now, from this we may take the lesson that in our fight with māyā we should not be in a position in which our strength, enthusiasm and senses will be unable to fight vigorously. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has actually declared war against the illusory energy, in which all the living entities are rotting in a false understanding of civilization. The soldiers in this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement must always possess physical strength, enthusiasm and sensual power. To keep themselves fit, they must therefore place themselves in a normal condition of life. What constitutes a normal condition will not be the same for everyone, and therefore there are divisions of varṇāśrama—brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya, śūdra, brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa.

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu showed us an example in taking sannyāsa at the age of twenty-four years, but even Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya advised Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to be extremely careful because He had taken sannyāsa at an early age. For preaching we give young boys sannyāsa, but actually it is being experienced that they are not fit for sannyāsa. There is no harm, however, if one thinks that he is unfit for sannyāsa; if he is very much agitated sexually, he should go to the āśrama where sex is allowed, namely the gṛhastha-āśrama. That one has been found to be very weak in one place does not mean that he should stop fighting the crocodile of māyā. One should take shelter of the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, as we shall see Gajendra do, and at the same time one can be a gṛhastha if he is satisfied with sexual indulgence. There is no need to give up the fight. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu therefore recommended, sthāne sthitāḥ śruti-gatāṁ tanu-vān-manobhiḥ. One may stay in whichever āśrama is suitable for him; it is not essential that one take sannyāsa. If one is sexually agitated, he can enter the gṛhastha-āśrama. But one must continue fighting. For one who is not in a transcendental position, to take sannyāsa artificially is not a very great credit. If sannyāsa is not suitable, one may enter the gṛhastha-āśrama and fight māyā with great strength.

No one can say, \"I do not fear death.\" This is a false proposition. Everyone fears death. However, one who seeks shelter of the Supreme Personality of Godhead can be saved from death. One may argue, \"Does the devotee not die?\" The answer is that a devotee certainly must give up his body, for the body is material. The difference is, however, that for one who surrenders to Kṛṣṇa fully and who is protected by Kṛṣṇa, the present body is his last; he will not again receive a material body to be subjected to death. This is assured in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9). Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti so'rjuna: a devotee, after giving up his body, does not accept a material body, but returns home, back to Godhead. We are always in danger because at any moment death can take place. It is not that only Gajendra, the King of the elephants, was afraid of death.

Therefore, a devotee who engages in the service of the Supreme Lord and who constantly thinks of Him should never be considered to have a material body. It is therefore enjoined, guruṣu nara-matiḥ: one should stop thinking of the spiritual master as an ordinary human being with a material body. Arcye viṣṇau śilā-dhīḥ: everyone knows that the Deity in the temple is made of stone, but to think that the Deity is merely stone is an offense. Similarly, to think that the body of the spiritual master consists of material ingredients is offensive. Atheists think that devotees foolishly worship a stone statue as God and an ordinary man as the guru. The fact is, however, that by the grace of Kṛṣṇa's omnipotence, the so-called stone statue of the Deity is directly the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and the body of the spiritual master is directly spiritual. A pure devotee who is engaged in unalloyed devotional service should be understood to be situated on the transcendental platform (sa guṇān samatītyaitān brahma-bhūyāya kalpate).

Oṁ tat sad iti nirdeśo brahmaṇas tri-vidhaḥ smṛtaḥ: the three words oṁ tat sat immediately invoke the Supreme Person.

The Vedic mantras are pronounced beginning with oṁkāra to indicate immediately the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, for example, begins with the words oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. There is no difference between the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva, and oṁkāra (praṇava). We should be careful to understand that oṁkāra does not indicate anything nirākāra, or formless. Indeed, this verse immediately says, oṁ namo bhagavate. Bhagavān is a person. Thus oṁkāra is the representation of the Supreme Person. Oṁkāra is not meant to be impersonal, as the Māyāvādī philosophers consider it to be. This is distinctly expressed here by the word puruṣāya. The supreme truth addressed by oṁkāra is puruṣa, the Supreme Person; He is not impersonal. Unless He is a person, how can He control the great, stalwart controllers of this universe? Lord Viṣṇu, Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva are the supreme controllers of this universe, but Lord Viṣṇu is offered obeisances even by Lord Śiva and Lord Brahmā. Therefore this verse uses the word pareśāya, which indicates that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is worshiped by exalted demigods. Pareśāya means parameśvara. Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva are īśvaras, great controllers, but Lord Viṣṇu is parameśvara, the supreme controller." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/03/verses/03.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/03/verses/03.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..12febccd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/03/verses/03.json @@ -0,0 +1,125 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 3, + "reference": "SB 8.3.3", + "devanagari": "यस्मिन्न् इदं यतश्चेदं येनेदं य इदं स्वयम्\nयो ऽस्मात्परस्माच्च परस्तं प्रपद्ये स्वयम्भुवम्", + "transliteration": "yasminn idaṁ yataś cedaṁ\nyenedaṁ ya idaṁ svayam\nyo 'smāt parasmāc ca paras\ntaṁ prapadye svayambhuvam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yasmin", + "meanings": [ + "the basic platform on which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "the universe rests" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the ingredients from which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "the cosmic manifestation is produced" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yena", + "meanings": [ + "by whom" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this cosmic manifestation is created and maintained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "He who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "idam", + "meanings": [ + "this material world" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "is Himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "He who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the effect (this material world)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the cause" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental or different" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prapadye", + "meanings": [ + "I surrender" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayambhuvam", + "meanings": [ + "unto the supreme self-sufficient." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Godhead is the supreme platform on which everything rests, the ingredient by which everything has been produced, and the person who has created and is the only cause of this cosmic manifestation.

As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (4.8) by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām. The Lord's activities of saving the devotees and annihilating the demons are transcendental. Anyone annihilated by the Supreme Personality of Godhead gets the same result as a devotee who is protected by the Lord; both of them are transcendentally promoted. The only difference is that a devotee goes directly to the spiritual planets and becomes an associate of the Supreme Lord, whereas demons are promoted to brahmaloka, the impersonal effulgence of the Lord. Both of them, however, are transcendentally promoted. The Lord's killing or annihilating of the demons is not exactly like the killing of this material world. Although He appears to act within the modes of material nature, He is nirguṇa, above the modes of nature. His name is not material; otherwise how could one get liberation by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Rāma? The names of the Lord like Rāma and Kṛṣṇa are nondifferent from the person Rāma and Kṛṣṇa. Thus by chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra one constantly associates with Rāma and Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and therefore becomes liberated. A practical example is Ajāmila, who always remained transcendental to his activities simply by chanting the name Nārāyaṇa. If this was true of Ajāmila, what is to be said of the Supreme Lord? When the Lord comes to this material world, He does not become a product of matter. This is confirmed throughout Bhagavad-gītā (janma-karma ca me divyam, avajānanti māṁ mūḍhāḥ mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam). Therefore, when the Supreme Personality of Godhead—Rāma or Kṛṣṇa—descends to act transcendentally for our benefit, we should not consider Him an ordinary human being. When the Lord comes, He does so on the basis of His spiritual potency (sambhavāmy ātma-māyayā). Because He is not forced to come by the material energy, He is always transcendental. One should not consider the Supreme Lord an ordinary human being.

The living entity, who is also kṣetra-jña, or the knower of the body, is not the body's only proprietor; the actual proprietor of the body is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the supreme kṣetra-jña.

Sometimes, when there is no alternative, a pure devotee, being fully dependent on the mercy of the Supreme Lord, prays for some benediction. But in such a prayer there is also regret. One who always hears and chants about the transcendental pastimes of the Lord is always situated on a platform on which he has nothing to ask in terms of material benefits. Unless one is a completely pure devotee, one cannot enjoy the transcendental bliss derived from chanting and dancing in the ecstasy of the saṅkīrtana movement. Such ecstasy is not possible for an ordinary devotee. Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu showed us how one can enjoy transcendental bliss simply by chanting, hearing and dancing in ecstasy. This is bhakti-yoga. Therefore the King of the elephants, Gajendra, said, ādhyātmika-yoga-gamyam, indicating that unless one is situated on this transcendental platform, one cannot approach the Supreme Lord. The benediction of being able to approach the Lord can be achieved after many, many births, yet Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has awarded this benediction to everyone, even to the fallen souls who have no heritage of anything in spiritual life. That is actually being seen in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Therefore the path of bhakti-yoga is the spotless process by which to approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Bhaktyāham ekayā grāhyaḥ: only through devotional service can one approach the Supreme Lord. The Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (7.1):", + "mayy āsakta-manāḥ pārtha

In this regard, there is a relevant verse in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.14.8):", + "tat te 'nukampāṁ susamīkṣamāṇo

The word dāya-bhāk refers to a hereditary right to the Lord's mercy. A devotee must simply engage in devotional service, not caring about material situations. Then he automatically becomes a rightful candidate for promotion to Vaikuṇṭhaloka. The devotee who renders unalloyed service to the Lord gets the right to be promoted to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, just as a son inherits the property of his father.", + "When a devotee gets liberation, he becomes free from material contamination and engages as a servant of the Lord. This is explained in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (2.10.6): muktir hitvānyathā rūpaṁ svarūpena vyavasthitiḥ. The word svarūpa refers to sārūpya-mukti—going back home, back to Godhead, and remaining the Lord's eternal associate, having regained a spiritual body exactly resembling that of the Lord, with four hands, holding the śaṅkha, cakra, gadā and padma. The difference between the mukti of the impersonalist and that of the devotee is that the devotee is immediately appointed an eternal servant of the Lord, whereas the impersonalist, although merging in the effulgence of the brahmajyoti, is still insecure and therefore generally falls again to this material world. Āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padaṁ tataḥ patanty adho 'nādṛta-yuṣmad-aṅghrayaḥ (Bhāg. 10.2.32). Although the impersonalist rises to the Brahman effulgence and enters into that effulgence, he has no engagement in the service of the Lord, and therefore he is again attracted to materialistic philanthropic activities. Thus he comes down to open hospitals and educational institutions, feed poor men and perform similar materialistic activities, which the impersonalist thinks are more precious than serving the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Anādṛta-yuṣmad-aṅghrayaḥ. The impersonalists do not think that the service of the Lord is more valuable than serving the poor man or starting a school or hospital.

A devotee sometimes accepts a sinful person as his disciple, and to counteract the sinful reactions he accepts from the disciple, he has to see a bad dream. Nonetheless, the spiritual master is so kind that in spite of having bad dreams due to the sinful disciple, he accepts this troublesome business for the deliverance of the victims of Kali-yuga. After initiation, therefore, a disciple should be extremely careful not to commit again any sinful act that might cause difficulties for himself and the spiritual master. Before the Deity, before the fire, before the spiritual master and before the Vaiṣṇavas, the honest disciple promises to refrain from all sinful activity.

It is also said that for ten thousand years this era will continue. This means that simply by accepting the saṅkīrtana movement and chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, the fallen souls of this Kali-yuga will be delivered. After the Battle of Kurukṣetra, at which Bhagavad-gītā was spoken, Kali-yuga continues for 432,000 years, of which only 5,000 years have passed. Thus there is still a balance of 427,000 years to come. Of these 427,000 years, the 10,000 years of the saṅkīrtana movement inaugurated by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu 500 years ago provide the opportunity for the fallen souls of Kali-yuga to take to the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra and thus be delivered from the clutches of material existence and return home, back to Godhead.", + "Chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra is potent always, but it is especially potent in this age of Kali.

It is that simply by chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, one can become free from material bondage and be promoted to the transcendental kingdom.\" (Bhāg. 12.3.51) Those who have accepted the task of spreading the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra in full Kṛṣṇa consciousness should take this opportunity to deliver people very easily from the clutches of material existence. Our duty, therefore, is to follow the instructions of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and preach the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement all over the world very sincerely.

Paraṁ vijayate śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtanam: \"All glories to the Śrī Kṛṣṇa saṅkīrtana!\" Why is it so glorious? This has also been explained by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam: by the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, one's heart is cleansed. The whole difficulty is that in this age of Kali there is no sattva-guṇa and no clearance of the heart, and therefore people are making the mistake of identifying with their bodies. Even the big philosophers and scientists with whom we deal are practically all under the impression that they are their bodies. The other day we were discussing a prominent philosopher, Thomas Huxley, who was proud of being an Englishman. This means that he was in the bodily conception of life. Everywhere we find this same misunderstanding. As soon as one is in the bodily conception of life, one is nothing but an animal like a cat or a dog (sa eva go-kharaḥ). Thus the most dangerous of the dirty things within our hearts is this misidentification of the body as the self. Under the influence of this misunderstanding, one thinks, \"I am this body. I am an Englishman. I am an Indian. I am an American. I am Hindu. I am Muslim.\" This misconception is the strongest impediment, and it must be removed. That is the instruction of Bhagavad-gītā and of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Indeed, Bhagavad-gītā begins with this instruction:", + "dehino 'smin yathā dehe
kaumāraṁ yauvanaṁ jarā
tathā dehāntara-prāptir
dhīras tatra na muhyati", + "\"As the embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. The self-realized soul is not bewildered by such a change.\" (Bg. 2.13) Although the soul is within the body, nevertheless, because of misunderstanding and animal propensities one accepts the body as the self. Caitanya Mahāprabhu therefore says, ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam. To cleanse the core of the heart, which is full of misunderstanding, is possible only through śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtana. The leaders of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement should very seriously take this opportunity to be kind to the fallen souls by delivering them from the misunderstanding of materialistic life.", + "One cannot be happy in any way within this material world. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (8.16):", + "ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ
punar āvartino 'rjuna", + "\"From the highest planet in this material world down to the lowest, all are places of misery wherein repeated birth and death take place.\" Therefore, not to speak of going to the moon, even if one is promoted to the highest planetary system, Brahmaloka, there cannot be any happiness in this material world. If one actually wants happiness, one must go to the spiritual world. The material world is characterized by a struggle for existence, and survival of the fittest is a well-known principle, but the poor souls of this material world do not know what is survival and who is fit. Survival does not mean that one should die; survival means that one should not die, but should enjoy an everlastingly blissful life of knowledge. This is survival. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is meant to make every person fit for survival. Indeed, it is meant to stop the struggle for existence. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Bhagavad-gītā give definite directions on how to stop the struggle for existence and how to survive in eternal life. The saṅkīrtana movement, therefore, is a great opportunity. Simply by hearing Bhagavad-gītā and chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, one becomes completely purified. Thus the struggle for existence ceases, and one goes back home, back to Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/05/verses/24.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/05/verses/24.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..e6b2dce1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/05/verses/24.json @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 24, + "reference": "SB 8.5.24", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nइत्य् आभाष्य सुरान्वेधाः सह देवैर् अरिन्दम\nअजितस्य पदं साक्षाज्जगाम तमसः परम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\nity ābhāṣya surān vedhāḥ\nsaha devair arindama\najitasya padaṁ sākṣāj\njagāma tamasaḥ param", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ābhāṣya", + "meanings": [ + "talking" + ] + }, + { + "word": "surān", + "meanings": [ + "unto the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vedhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Brahmā, who is the head of this universe and who gives everyone good sense in Vedic knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saha", + "meanings": [ + "with" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arim-dama", + "meanings": [ + "O Mahārāja Parīkṣit, subduer of all kinds of enemies (such as the senses)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ajitasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "padam", + "meanings": [ + "to the place" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sākṣāt", + "meanings": [ + "directly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagāma", + "meanings": [ + "went" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tamasaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the world of darkness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental to, beyond." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Mahārāja Parīkṣit, subduer of all enemies, after Lord Brahmā finished speaking to the demigods, he took them with him to the abode of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, which is beyond this material world.

When Kṛṣṇa was on earth, many, many people saw Him but could not understand that He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam. Even though the rascals and fools saw Kṛṣṇa personally, they could not understand that He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Even upon seeing God personally, one who is unfortunate cannot understand Him. Therefore we have to hear about God, Kṛṣṇa, from the authentic Vedic literature and from persons who understand the Vedic version properly. Even though Brahmā had not seen the Supreme Personality of Godhead before, he was confident that the Lord was there in Śvetadvīpa. Thus he took the opportunity to go there and offer prayers to the Lord.", + "These prayers were not ordinary concocted prayers. Prayers must be approved by Vedic literature, as indicated in this verse by the words daivībhir gīrbhiḥ. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement we do not allow any song that has not been approved or sung by bona fide devotees. We cannot allow cinema songs to be sung in the temple. We generally sing two songs. One is śrī-kṛṣṇa-caitanya prabhu nityānanda śrī-advaita gadādhara śrīvāsādi-gaura-bhakta-vṛnda. This is bona fide. It is always mentioned in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, and it is accepted by the ācāryas. The other, of course, is the mahā-mantra—Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. We may also sing the songs of Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura, Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura and Locana dāsa Ṭhākura, but these two songs—\"śrī-kṛṣṇa-caitanya\" and the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra—are sufficient to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although we cannot see Him. Seeing the Lord is not as important as appreciating Him from the authentic literature or the authentic statements of authorized persons." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/05/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/05/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1766f440 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/05/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,131 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 5, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 8.5.26", + "devanagari": "त्वं ब्रह्म पूर्णम् अमृतं विगुणं विशोकम् आनन्दमात्रम् अविकारम् अनन्यद् अन्यत्\nविश्वस्य हेतुर् उदयस्थितिसंयमानाम् आत्मेश्वरश्च तदपेक्षतयानपेक्षः", + "transliteration": "tvaṁ brahma pūrṇam amṛtaṁ viguṇaṁ viśokam\nānanda-mātram avikāram ananyad anyat\nviśvasya hetur udaya-sthiti-saṁyamānām\nātmeśvaraś ca tad-apekṣatayānapekṣaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "Your Lordship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "the all-pervading Absolute Truth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūrṇam", + "meanings": [ + "fully complete" + ] + }, + { + "word": "amṛtam", + "meanings": [ + "never to be vanquished" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viguṇam", + "meanings": [ + "spiritually situated, free from the material modes of nature" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśokam", + "meanings": [ + "without lamentation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ānanda-mātram", + "meanings": [ + "always in transcendental bliss" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avikāram", + "meanings": [ + "changeless" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ananyat", + "meanings": [ + "separated from everything" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anyat", + "meanings": [ + "yet You are everything" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viśvasya", + "meanings": [ + "of the cosmic manifestation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hetuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the cause" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udaya", + "meanings": [ + "of the beginning" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthiti", + "meanings": [ + "maintenance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁyamānām", + "meanings": [ + "and of all the directors controlling the various departments of the cosmic manifestation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-īśvaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul giving direction to everyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat-apekṣatayā", + "meanings": [ + "everyone depends upon You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anapekṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "always fully independent." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My Lord, You are the Supreme Brahman, complete in everything.

This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (bhaktyā mām abhijānāti yāvān yaś cāsmi tattvataḥ) and in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (bhaktyāham ekayā grāhyaḥ). Thus by devotional service one can achieve the favor of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although He is not visible or understandable to materialistic persons.", + "In this verse, the cultivation of bhakti-yoga is compared to many material activities. By friction one can get fire from wood, by digging the earth one can get food grains and water, and by agitating the milk bag of the cow one can get nectarean milk. Milk is compared to nectar, which one can drink to become immortal. Of course, simply drinking milk will not make one immortal, but it can increase the duration of one's life. In modern civilization, men do not think milk to be important, and therefore they do not live very long. Although in this age men can live up to one hundred years, their duration of life is reduced because they do not drink large quantities of milk. This is a sign of Kali-yuga. In Kali-yuga, instead of drinking milk, people prefer to slaughter an animal and eat its flesh. The Supreme Personality of Godhead, in His instructions of Bhagavad-gītā, advises go-rakṣya, which means cow protection. The cow should be protected, milk should be drawn from the cows, and this milk should be prepared in various ways. One should take ample milk, and thus one can prolong one's life, develop his brain, execute devotional service, and ultimately attain the favor of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As it is essential to get food grains and water by digging the earth, it is also essential to give protection to the cows and take nectarean milk from their milk bags.", + "The people of this age are inclined toward industrial enterprises for comfortable living, but they refuse to endeavor to execute devotional service, by which they can achieve the ultimate goal of life by returning home, back to Godhead. Unfortunately, as it is said, na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ hi viṣṇuṁ durāśayā ye bahir-artha-māninaḥ. People without spiritual education do not know that the ultimate goal of life is to go back home, back to Godhead. Forgetting this aim of life, they are working very hard in disappointment and frustration (moghāśā mogha-karmāṇo mogha-jñānā vicetasaḥ). The so-called vaiśyas—the industrialists or businessmen—are involved in big, big industrial enterprises, but they are not interested in food grains and milk. However, as indicated here, by digging for water, even in the desert, we can produce food grains; when we produce food grains and vegetables, we can give protection to the cows; while giving protection to the cows, we can draw from them abundant quantities of milk; and by getting enough milk and combining it with food grains and vegetables, we can prepare hundreds of nectarean foods. We can happily eat this food and thus avoid industrial enterprises and joblessness.", + "Agriculture and cow protection are the way to become sinless and thus be attracted to devotional service. Those who are sinful cannot be attracted by devotional service. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (7.28):", + "yeṣāṁ tv anta-gataṁ pāpaṁ

The devotee is always eager to see the Lord face to face, but if he is brokenhearted because he cannot see the Lord, even life after life, he will never command the Lord to appear. This is a sign of pure devotion. Therefore in this verse we find the word ati-cira-īpsita-artham, meaning that the devotee aspires for a long, long time to see the Lord. If the Lord, by His own pleasure, appears before the devotee, the devotee feels extremely happy, as Dhruva Mahārāja felt when he personally saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead. When Dhruva Mahārāja saw the Lord, he had no desire to ask the Lord for any benediction. Indeed, simply by seeing the Lord, Dhruva Mahārāja felt so satisfied that he did not want to ask the Lord for any benediction (svāmin kṛtārtho 'smi varaṁ na yāce).

We are advocating cow protection and encouraging people to drink more milk and eat palatable preparations made of milk, but the demons, just to protest such proposals, are claiming that they are advanced in scientific knowledge, as described here by the words svādhyāya-śruta-sampannāḥ. They say that according to their scientific way, they have discovered that milk is dangerous and that the beef obtained by killing cows is very nutritious. This difference of opinion will always continue. Indeed, it has existed since days of yore. Millions of years ago, there was the same competition. The demons, as a result of their so-called Vedic study, preferred to hold the side of the snake near the mouth. The Supreme Personality of Godhead thought it wise to catch hold of the dangerous part of the snake and allow the demons to hold the tail, which was not dangerous, but because of a competitive desire, the demons thought it wise to hold the snake near the mouth. If the demigods were going to drink poison, the demons would resolve, \"Why should we not share the poison and die gloriously by drinking it?\"", + "In regard to the words svādhyāya-śruta-sampannāḥ prakhyātā janma-karmabhiḥ, another question may be raised. If one is actually educated in Vedic knowledge, is famous for performing prescribed activities and has been born in a great aristocratic family, why should he be called a demon? The answer is that one may be highly educated and may have been born in an aristocratic family, but if he is godless, if he does not listen to the instructions of God, then he is a demon. There are many examples in history of men like Hiraṇyakaśipu, Rāvaṇa and Kaṁsa who were well educated, who were born in aristocratic families and who were very powerful and chivalrous in fighting, but who, because of deriding the Supreme Personality of Godhead, were called Rākṣasas, or demons. One may be very well educated, but if he has no sense of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, no obedience to the Supreme Lord, he is a demon. That is described by the Lord Himself in Bhagavad-gītā (7.15):", + "na māṁ duṣkṛtino mūḍhāḥ
prapadyante narādhamāḥ
māyayāpahṛta-jñānā
āsuraṁ bhāvam āśritāḥ", + "\"Those miscreants who are grossly foolish, lowest among mankind, whose knowledge is stolen by illusion, and who partake of the atheistic nature of demons, do not surrender unto Me.\" Āsuraṁ bhāvam refers to not accepting the existence of God or the transcendental instructions of the Personality of Godhead. Bhagavad-gītā clearly consists of transcendental instructions imparted directly by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But asuras, instead of accepting these instructions directly, make commentaries according to their own whimsical ways and mislead everyone, without profit even for themselves. One should therefore be very careful of demoniac, godless persons. According to the words of Lord Kṛṣṇa, even if a godless demon is very well educated, he must be considered a mūḍha, narādhama and māyayāpahṛta-jñāna." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/07/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/07/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..edcdcd3d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/07/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 8.7.4", + "devanagari": "इति तूष्णीं स्थितान्दैत्यान्विलोक्य पुरुषोत्तमः\nस्मयमानो विसृज्याग्रं पुच्छं जग्राह सामरः", + "transliteration": "iti tūṣṇīṁ sthitān daityān\nvilokya puruṣottamaḥ\nsmayamāno visṛjyāgraṁ\npucchaṁ jagrāha sāmaraḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tūṣṇīm", + "meanings": [ + "silently" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthitān", + "meanings": [ + "staying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "daityān", + "meanings": [ + "the demons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vilokya", + "meanings": [ + "seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣa-uttamaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "smayamānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "smiling" + ] + }, + { + "word": "visṛjya", + "meanings": [ + "giving up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agram", + "meanings": [ + "the front portion of the snake" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puccham", + "meanings": [ + "the rear portion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagrāha", + "meanings": [ + "grasped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-amaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the demigods." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thus the demons remained silent, opposing the desire of the demigods.

No one can excel him in satisfying Me by worship.\" There are different kinds of welfare activities in this material world, but the supreme welfare activity is the spreading of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Other welfare activities cannot be effective, for the laws of nature and the results of karma cannot be checked. It is by destiny, or the laws of karma, that one must suffer or enjoy. For instance, if one is given a court order, he must accept it, whether it brings suffering or profit. Similarly, everyone is under obligations to karma and it reactions. No one can change this.

The Lord is automatically very pleased with him. If the Lord is pleased with him, what is left for him to achieve? If one has been recognized by the Lord, even if he does not ask the Lord for anything, the Lord, who is within everyone, supplies him whatever he wants. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (teṣāṁ nityābhiyuktānāṁ yoga-kṣemaṁ vahāmy aham). Again, as stated here, tapyante loka-tāpena sādhavaḥ prāyaśo janāḥ.

People generally desire material enjoyment, material opulence and the association of aristocratic family members (bhogaiśvarya-prasaktānām). Material enjoyment entails money, beauty and the reputation they bring, which can all be achieved by the mercy of the goddess of fortune. The goddess of fortune, however, never remains alone. As indicated in the previous verse by the word bhagavat-parā, she is the property of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and is enjoyable only by Him. If one wants the favor of the goddess of fortune, mother Lakṣmī, because she is by nature bhagavat-parā one must keep her with Nārāyaṇa. The devotees who always engage in the service of Nārāyaṇa (nārāyaṇa-parāyaṇa) can easily achieve the favor of the goddess of fortune without a doubt, but materialists who try to get the favor of the goddess of fortune only to possess her for personal enjoyment are frustrated. Theirs is not a good policy. The celebrated demon Rāvaṇa, for example, wanted to deprive Rāmacandra of Lakṣmī, Sītā, and thus be victorious, but the result was just the opposite. Sītā, of course, was taken by force by Lord Rāmacandra, and Rāvaṇa and his entire material empire were vanquished. The goddess of fortune is desirable for everyone, including human beings, but one should understand that the goddess of fortune is the exclusive property of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One cannot achieve the mercy of the goddess of fortune unless one prays both to her and to the supreme enjoyer, the Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/08/verses/10.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/08/verses/10.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..1ab7f467 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/08/verses/10.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 8, + "verse": 10, + "reference": "SB 8.8.10", + "devanagari": "तस्या आसनम् आनिन्ये महेन्द्रो महदद्भुतम्\nमूर्तिमत्यः सरिच्छ्रेष्ठा हेमकुम्भैर्जलं शुचि", + "transliteration": "tasyā āsanam āninye\nmahendro mahad-adbhutam\nmūrtimatyaḥ saric-chreṣṭhā\nhema-kumbhair jalaṁ śuci", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "for her" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsanam", + "meanings": [ + "a sitting place" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āninye", + "meanings": [ + "brought" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-indraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the King of heaven, Indra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahat", + "meanings": [ + "glorious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adbhutam", + "meanings": [ + "wonderful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mūrti-matyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "accepting forms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarit-śreṣṭhāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the best of various sacred waters" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hema", + "meanings": [ + "golden" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kumbhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with waterpots" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jalam", + "meanings": [ + "water" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śuci", + "meanings": [ + "pure." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The King of heaven, Indra, brought a suitable sitting place for the goddess of fortune.

Women in general should not be trusted, and what to speak of a woman loitering like a prostitute?\" The word kāminī is significant in this connection. Women, especially beautiful young women, invoke the dormant lusty desires of a man.

The karmīs transmigrate through different bodies in the cycle of birth and death, sometimes going upward and sometimes downward, thus suffering the results of their actions in the karma-cakra, the cycle of birth and death. The devotees, however, because of fully surrendering at the lotus feet of the Lord, are never baffled in their attempts. Although externally they work almost like the karmīs, the devotees go back home, back to Godhead, and achieve success in every effort. The demons or atheists have faith in their own endeavors, but although they work very hard day and night, they cannot get any more than their destiny. The devotees, however, can surpass the reactions of karma and achieve wonderful results, even without effort. It is also said, phalena paricīyate: one's success or defeat in any activity is understood by its result. There are many karmīs in the dress of devotees, but the Supreme Personality of Godhead can detect their purpose. The karmīs want to use the property of the Lord for their selfish sense gratification, but a devotee endeavors to use the Lord's property for God's service. Therefore a devotee is always distinct from the karmīs, although the karmīs may dress like devotees. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (3.9), yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ. One who works for Lord Viṣṇu is free from this material world, and after giving up his body he goes back home, back to Godhead. A karmī, however, although externally working like a devotee, is entangled in his nondevotional activity, and thus he suffers the tribulations of material existence. Thus from the results achieved by the karmīs and devotees, one can understand the presence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who acts differently for the karmīs and jñānīs than for the devotees. The author of Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta [Madhya 19.149] therefore says:", + "kṛṣṇa-bhakta—niṣkāma, ataeva 'śānta'
bhukti-mukti-siddhi-kāmī—sakali 'aśānta'", + "The karmīs who desire sense gratification, the jñānīs who aspire for the liberation of merging into the existence of the Supreme, and the yogīs who seek material success in mystic power are all restless, and ultimately they are baffled. But the devotee, who does not expect any personal benefit and whose only ambition is to spread the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is blessed with all the auspicious results of bhakti-yoga, without hard labor." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/09/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/09/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..db7608cd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/09/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,147 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 8.9.29", + "devanagari": "यद्युज्यते ऽसुवसुकर्ममनोवचोभिर्देहात्मजादिषु नृभिस्तद् असत्पृथक्त्वात्\nतैर् एव सद्भवति यत्क्रियते ऽपृथक्त्वात्सर्वस्य तद्भवति मूलनिषेचनं यत्", + "transliteration": "yad yujyate 'su-vasu-karma-mano-vacobhir\ndehātmajādiṣu nṛbhis tad asat pṛthaktvāt\ntair eva sad bhavati yat kriyate 'pṛthaktvāt\nsarvasya tad bhavati mūla-niṣecanaṁ yat", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whatever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yujyate", + "meanings": [ + "is performed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asu", + "meanings": [ + "for the protection of one's life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vasu", + "meanings": [ + "protection of wealth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karma", + "meanings": [ + "activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the acts of the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vacobhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the acts of words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deha-ātma-ja-ādiṣu", + "meanings": [ + "for the sake of one's personal body or family, etc., with reference to the body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛbhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the human beings" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat", + "meanings": [ + "that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asat", + "meanings": [ + "impermanent, transient" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛthaktvāt", + "meanings": [ + "because of separation from the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "taiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the same activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat bhavati", + "meanings": [ + "becomes factual and permanent" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "which" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kriyate", + "meanings": [ + "is performed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apṛthaktvāt", + "meanings": [ + "because of nonseparation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvasya", + "meanings": [ + "for everyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tat bhavati", + "meanings": [ + "becomes beneficial" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mūla-niṣecanam", + "meanings": [ + "exactly like pouring water on the root of a tree" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "which." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In human society there are various activities performed for the protection of one's wealth and life by one's words, one's mind and one's actions, but they are all performed for one's personal or extended sense gratification with reference to the body.

The entire world is active, and this includes the karmīs, the jñānīs, the yogīs and the bhaktas.

Moghāśā mogha-karmāṇo mogha-jñānā vicetasaḥ: if one is not a devotee, his hopes, his activities and his knowledge are all baffled. A nondevotee works for his personal sense gratification or for the sense gratification of his family, society, community or nation, but because all such activities are separate from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they are considered asat. The word asat means bad or temporary, and sat means permanent and good. Activities performed for the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa are permanent and good, but asat activity, although sometimes celebrated as philanthropy, altruism, nationalism, this \"ism\" or that \"ism,\" will never produce any permanent result and is therefore all bad. Even a little work done in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is a permanent asset and is all-good because it is done for Kṛṣṇa, the all-good Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is everyone's friend (suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānām). The Supreme Personality of Godhead is the only enjoyer and proprietor of everything (bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ sarva-loka-maheśvaram). Therefore any activity performed for the Supreme Lord is permanent. As a result of such activities, the performer is immediately recognized. Na ca tasmān manuṣyeṣu kaścin me priya-kṛttamaḥ. Such a devotee, because of full knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is immediately transcendental, although he may superficially appear to be engaged in materialistic activities. The only distinction between materialistic activity and spiritual activity is that material activity is performed only to satisfy one's own senses whereas spiritual activity is meant to satisfy the transcendental senses of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. By spiritual activity everyone factually benefits, whereas by materialistic activity no one benefits and instead one becomes entangled in the laws of karma." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff

Apparently, therefore, as stated elsewhere in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the sun, not the moon, is the planet nearest the earth. We have already discussed this point in many places. The sun is first, then the moon, then Mars, Jupiter and so on. The sun is supposed to be 93,000,000 miles above the surface of the earth, and from the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam we understand that the moon is 1,600,000 miles above the sun. Therefore the distance between the earth and the moon would be about 95,000,000 miles. So if a space capsule were traveling at the speed of 18,000 miles per hour, how could it reach the moon in four days? At that speed, going to the moon would take at least seven months.

Nonetheless, Bali Mahārāja challenged Indra by saying that Indra was not a very learned person. In Bhagavad-gītā (2.11) Kṛṣṇa rebuked Arjuna by saying:", + "aśocyān anvaśocas tvaṁ

Those who are wise lament neither for the living nor the dead.\" Thus as Kṛṣṇa challenged Arjuna by saying that he was not a paṇḍita, or a learned person, Bali Mahārāja also challenged King Indra and his associates. In this material world, everything happens under the influence of time. Consequently, for a learned person who sees how things are taking place, there is no question of being sorry or happy because of the waves of material nature. After all, since we are being carried away by these waves, what is the meaning of being jubilant or morose? One who is fully conversant with the laws of nature is never jubilant or morose because of nature's activities. In Bhagavad-gītā (2.14), Kṛṣṇa advises that one be tolerant: tāṁs titikṣasva bhārata. Following this advice of Kṛṣṇa's, one should not be morose or unhappy because of circumstantial changes. This is the symptom of a devotee. A devotee carries out his duty in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and is never unhappy in awkward circumstances. He has full faith that in such circumstances, Kṛṣṇa protects His devotee. Therefore a devotee never deviates from his prescribed duty of devotional service. The material qualities of jubilation and moroseness are present even in the demigods, who are very highly situated in the upper planetary system. Therefore, when one is undisturbed by the so-called favorable and unfavorable circumstances of this material world, he should be understood to be brahma-bhūta, or self-realized.

Since the energy and the energetic are not different and since the material and marginal energies are both energies of the supreme energetic, the Supreme Lord, ultimately the Supreme Personality of Godhead is everything. In this regard, the example may be given of gold that has not been molded and gold that has been molded into various ornaments. A gold earring and the gold in a mine are different only as cause and effect; otherwise they are the same. The Vedānta-sūtra describes that Brahman is the cause of everything. Janmādy asya yataḥ. Everything is born of the Supreme Brahman, from which everything emanates as different energies. None of these energies, therefore, should be considered false. The Māyāvādīs' differentiation between Brahman and māyā is only due to ignorance.", + "Śrīmad Vīrarāghava Ācārya, in his Bhāgavata-candra-candrikā, describes the Vaiṣṇava philosophy as follows. The cosmic manifestation is described as sat and asat, as cit and acit. Matter is acit, and the living force is cit, but their origin is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, in whom there is no difference between matter and spirit. According to this conception, the cosmic manifestation, consisting of both matter and spirit, is not different from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Idaṁ hi viśvaṁ bhagavān ivetaraḥ: \"This cosmic manifestation is also the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although it appears different from Him.\" In Bhagavad-gītā (9.4) the Lord says:", + "mayā tatam idaṁ sarvaṁ
jagad avyakta-mūrtinā
mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni
na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ", + "\"By Me, in My unmanifested form, this entire universe is pervaded. All beings are in Me, but I am not in them.\" Thus although someone may say that the Supreme Person is different from the cosmic manifestation, actually He is not. The Lord says, mayā tatam idaṁ sarvam: \"In My impersonal feature I am spread throughout the world.\" Therefore, this world is not different from Him. The difference is a difference in names. For example, whether we speak of gold earrings, gold bangles or gold necklaces, ultimately they are all gold. In a similar way, all the different manifestations of matter and spirit are ultimately one in the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Ekam evādvitīyaṁ brahma. This is the Vedic version (Chāndogya Upaniṣad 6.2.1). There is oneness because everything emanates from the Supreme Brahman. The example already given is that there is no difference between a golden earring and the gold mine as it is. The Vaiśeṣika philosophers, however, because of their Māyāvāda conception, create differences. They say, brahma satyaṁ jagan mithyā: \"The Absolute Truth is real, and the cosmic manifestation is false.\" But why should the jagat be considered mithyā? The jagat is an emanation from Brahman. Therefore the jagat is also truth.", + "Vaiṣṇavas, therefore, do not consider the jagat to be mithyā; rather, they regard everything as reality in connection with the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "anāsaktasya viṣayān

If one accepts something without attachment and accepts it because it is related to Kṛṣṇa, one's renunciation is called yuktaṁ vairāgyam. Whatever is favorable for the rendering of service to the Lord should be accepted and should not be rejected as a material thing.\" (Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu 1.2.255-256) The jagat should not be rejected as mithyā. It is truth, and the truth is realized when everything is engaged in the service of the Lord. A flower accepted for one's sense gratification is material, but when the same flower is offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead by a devotee, it is spiritual. Food taken and cooked for oneself is material, but food cooked for the Supreme Lord is spiritual prasāda. This is a question of realization. Actually, everything is given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and therefore everything is spiritual, but those who are not advanced in proper knowledge make distinctions because of the interactions of the three modes of material nature. In this regard, Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī says that although the sun is the only light, the sunshine, which is exhibited in seven colors, and darkness, which is the absence of sunshine, are not different from the sun, for without the existence of the sun such differentiations cannot exist.

jyotsnā vistāriṇī yathā

tathedam akhilaṁ jagat", + "\"Just as the illumination of a fire, which is situated in one place, is spread all over, the energies of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Parabrahman, are spread all over this universe.\" (Viṣṇu Purāṇa 1.22.53) Materially, we can directly perceive the sunshine spreading itself according to different names and activities, but ultimately the sun is one. Similarly, sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma: everything is an expansion of the Supreme Brahman. Therefore, the Supreme Lord is everything, and He is one without differentiation. There is no existence separate from the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/12/verses/09.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/12/verses/09.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4409c618 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/12/verses/09.json @@ -0,0 +1,133 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 9, + "reference": "SB 8.12.9", + "devanagari": "त्वां ब्रह्म केचिद् अवयन्त्य् उत धर्मम् एके एके परं सदसतोः पुरुषं परेशम्\nअन्ये ऽवयन्ति नवशक्तियुतं परं त्वां केचिन्महापुरुषम् अव्ययम् आत्मतन्त्रम्", + "transliteration": "tvāṁ brahma kecid avayanty uta dharmam eke\neke paraṁ sad-asatoḥ puruṣaṁ pareśam\nanye 'vayanti nava-śakti-yutaṁ paraṁ tvāṁ\nkecin mahā-puruṣam avyayam ātma-tantram", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tvām", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme truth, the Absolute Truth, Brahman, kecit—some people, namely the group of Māyāvādīs known as the Vedāntists" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avayanti", + "meanings": [ + "consider" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uta", + "meanings": [ + "certainly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dharmam", + "meanings": [ + "religion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eke", + "meanings": [ + "some others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eke", + "meanings": [ + "some others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sat-asatoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "to both cause and effect" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pareśam", + "meanings": [ + "the supreme controller" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anye", + "meanings": [ + "others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avayanti", + "meanings": [ + "describe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nava-śakti-yutam", + "meanings": [ + "endowed with nine potencies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "transcendental" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvām", + "meanings": [ + "unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kecit", + "meanings": [ + "some" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-puruṣam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avyayam", + "meanings": [ + "without loss of energy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-tantram", + "meanings": [ + "supremely independent." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Those who are known as the impersonalist Vedāntists regard You as the impersonal Brahman.

In Tretā-yuga, however, these principles are somewhat neglected, and only three fourths of the religious duties continue. In Dvāpara-yuga only half of the religious principles continue, and in Kali-yuga only one fourth of the religious principles, which gradually disappear.

The duty of saintly persons, therefore, is to take up seriously the cause of sanātana-dharma and try to reestablish it for the benefit of the entire human society.

The eternal occupational duty of the human being is to serve Kṛṣṇa. Jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa.' This is the purport of sanātana-dharma.

Such gṛhamedhīs have only one aim in life—sense gratification. Therefore it is said, yan maithunādi-gṛhamedhi-sukhaṁ hi tuccham: the householder's life is based on sense gratification, and therefore the happiness derived from it is very meager. Nonetheless, the Vedic process is so comprehensive that even in householder life one can adjust his activities according to the regulative principles of dharma, artha, kāma and mokṣa. One's aim should be to achieve liberation, but because one cannot at once give up sense gratification, in the śāstras there are injunctions prescribing how to follow the principles of religion, economic development and sense gratification. As explained in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.2.9), dharmasya hy āpavargyasya nārtho 'rthāyopakalpate: \"All occupational engagements are certainly meant for ultimate liberation. They should never be performed for material gain.\" Those who are in household life should not think that religion is meant to improve the process of the householder's sense gratification. Household life is also meant for advancement in spiritual understanding, by which one can ultimately gain liberation from the material clutches. One should remain in household life with the aim of understanding the ultimate goal of life (tattva-jijñāsā). Then household life is as good as the life of a yogi. Kaśyapa Muni therefore inquired from his wife whether the principles of religion, economic development and sense gratification were being properly followed in terms of the śāstric injunctions. As soon as one deviates from the injunctions of the śāstra, the purpose of household life is immediately lost in confusion." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/16/verses/06.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/16/verses/06.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9f68302d --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/16/verses/06.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 6, + "reference": "SB 8.16.6", + "devanagari": "अपि वातिथयो ऽभ्येत्य कुटुम्बासक्तया त्वया\nगृहाद् अपूजिता याताः प्रत्युत्थानेन वा क्वचित्", + "transliteration": "api vātithayo 'bhyetya\nkuṭumbāsaktayā tvayā\ngṛhād apūjitā yātāḥ\npratyutthānena vā kvacit", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "whether" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "either" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atithayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "guests who come without an invitation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhyetya", + "meanings": [ + "coming to the home" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kuṭumba-āsaktayā", + "meanings": [ + "who were too attached to the family members" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvayā", + "meanings": [ + "by you" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛhāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the house" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apūjitāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "without being properly welcomed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yātāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "went away" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyutthānena", + "meanings": [ + "by standing up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vā", + "meanings": [ + "either" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kvacit", + "meanings": [ + "sometimes." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "I wonder whether because of being too attached to the members of your family, you failed to properly receive uninvited guests, who therefore were not welcomed and went away.", + "purport": [ + "It is the duty of a householder to receive guests, even if a guest be an enemy.

The Vedic civilization, however, is based on spiritual education, and spiritual education is the special basis on which Bhagavad-gītā was spoken to Arjuna. In the beginning of Bhagavad-gītā, Kṛṣṇa instructed Arjuna to understand that the spirit soul is different from the body.", + "dehino 'smin yathā dehe

The self-realized soul is not bewildered by such a change.\" (Bg. 2.13) Unfortunately, this spiritual education is completely absent from modern human civilization. No one understands his real self-interest, which lies with the spirit soul, not with the material body. Education means spiritual education. To work hard in the bodily conception of life, without spiritual education, is to live like an animal. Nāyaṁ deho deha-bhājāṁ nṛ-loke kaṣṭān kāmān arhate vid-bhujāṁ ye (Bhāg. 5.5.1). People are working so hard simply for bodily comforts, without education regarding the spirit soul. Thus they are living in a very risky civilization, for it is a fact that the spirit soul has to transmigrate from one body to another (tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ). Without spiritual education, people are kept in dark ignorance and do not know what will happen to them after the annihilation of the present body. They are working blindly, and blind leaders are directing them. Andhā yathāndhair upanīyamānās te 'pīśa-tantryām uru-dāmni baddhāḥ (Bhāg. 7.5.31). A foolish person does not know that he is completely under the bondage of material nature and that after death material nature will impose upon him a certain type of body, which he will have to accept. He does not know that although in his present body he may be a very important man, he may next get the body of an animal or tree because of his ignorant activities in the modes of material nature. Therefore the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is trying to give the true light of spiritual existence to all living entities. This movement is not very difficult to understand, and people must take advantage of it, for it will save them from the risky life of irresponsibility." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/16/verses/20.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/16/verses/20.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..633e90e9 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/16/verses/20.json @@ -0,0 +1,65 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 16, + "verse": 20, + "reference": "SB 8.16.20", + "devanagari": "उपतिष्ठस्व पुरुषं भगवन्तं जनार्दनम्\nसर्वभूतगुहावासं वासुदेवं जगद्गुरुम्", + "transliteration": "upatiṣṭhasva puruṣaṁ\nbhagavantaṁ janārdanam\nsarva-bhūta-guhā-vāsaṁ\nvāsudevaṁ jagad-gurum", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "upatiṣṭhasva", + "meanings": [ + "just try to worship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣam", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Person" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavantam", + "meanings": [ + "the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janārdanam", + "meanings": [ + "who can kill all the enemies" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-bhūta-guhā-vāsam", + "meanings": [ + "living within the core of the heart of everyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsudevam", + "meanings": [ + "Vāsudeva, Kṛṣṇa, who is all-pervading and is the son of Vasudeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jagat-gurum", + "meanings": [ + "the spiritual master and teacher of the whole world." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "My dear Aditi, engage in devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the master of everything, who can subdue everyone's enemies, and who sits within everyone's heart.

In the material world, the mode of goodness is considered the best, but because of material contamination, even the mode of goodness is sometimes overpowered by the modes of passion and ignorance. But when one transcends the competition between these modes and engages himself in devotional service, he rises above the three modes of material nature. In that transcendental position, one is situated in pure consciousness. Sattvaṁ viśuddhaṁ vasudeva-śabditam (Bhāg. 4.3.23). Above material nature is the position called vasudeva, or freedom from material contamination. Only in that position can one perceive the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva. Thus the vasudeva condition fulfills a spiritual necessity. Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ.

He was not so foolish that he would present himself as an exalted personality, as good as God. He was actually a bona fide guru because he advised his wife to seek shelter at the lotus feet of Vāsudeva. One who trains his subordinate or disciple to worship Vāsudeva is the truly bona fide spiritual master. The word jagad-gurum is very important in this regard. Kaśyapa Muni did not falsely declare himself to be jagad-guru, although he actually was jagad-guru because he advocated the cause of Vāsudeva. Actually, Vāsudeva is jagad-guru, as clearly stated here (vāsudevaṁ jagad-gurum). One who teaches the instructions of Vāsudeva, Bhagavad-gītā, is as good as vāsudevaṁ jagad-gurum. But when one who does not teach this instruction—as it is—declares himself jagad-guru, he simply cheats the public. Kṛṣṇa is jagad-guru, and one who teaches the instruction of Kṛṣṇa as it is, on behalf of Kṛṣṇa, may be accepted as jagad-guru.

Kṛṣṇa is dīna-anukampana: He is very merciful to everyone. Therefore if one wants to fulfill his material desires, Kṛṣṇa helps him. Of course, sometimes if a devotee is very sincere, the Lord, as a special favor to him, refuses to fulfill his material desires and directly blesses him with pure, unalloyed devotional service.

This is the Lord's special favor to devotees. Otherwise, if one takes to Kṛṣṇa's devotional service but still has material desires to fulfill, he may become free from all material desires, as Dhruva Mahārāja did, but this may take some time.

This is a statement made by Lord Śiva to Pārvatī. Worshiping Lord Viṣṇu is the supreme process of worship. And how Lord Viṣṇu is worshiped in this payo-vrata ceremony has now been fully described. The ultimate goal of life is to please Lord Viṣṇu by varṇāśrama-dharma. The Vedic principles of four varṇas and four āśramas are meant for worship of Viṣṇu (viṣṇur ārādhyate puṁsāṁ nānyat tat-toṣa-kāraṇam). The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is also viṣṇu-ārādhanam, or worship of Lord Viṣṇu, according to the age. The payo-vrata method of viṣṇu-ārādhanam was enunciated long, long ago by Kaśyapa Muni to his wife, Aditi, in the heavenly planets, and the same process is bona fide on earth even now. Especially for this age of Kali, the process accepted by the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is to open hundreds and thousands of Viṣṇu temples (temples of Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa, Jagannātha, Balarāma, Sītā-Rāma, Gaura-Nitāi and so on). Performing prescribed worship in such temples of Viṣṇu and thus worshiping the Lord is as good as performing the payo-vrata ceremony recommended here. The payo-vrata ceremony is performed from the first to the thirteenth day of the bright fortnight of the moon, but in our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement Lord Viṣṇu is worshiped in every temple according to a schedule of twenty-four hours of engagement in performing kīrtana, chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, offering palatable food to Lord Viṣṇu and distributing this food to Vaiṣṇavas and others. These are authorized activities, and if the members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement stick to these principles, they will achieve the same result one gains by observing the payo-vrata ceremony. Thus the essence of all auspicious activities, such as performing yajña, giving in charity, observing vratas, and undergoing austerities, is included in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. The members of this movement should immediately and sincerely follow the processes already recommended. Of course, sacrifice is meant to please Lord Viṣṇu.

He is the same person, with the same potency, the same eternity and the same spiritual existence, but He can simultaneously assume various forms. When Vāmanadeva appeared from the womb of His mother, He appeared in the form of Nārāyaṇa, with four hands equipped with the necessary symbolic weapons, and then immediately transformed Himself into a brahmacārī (vaṭu). This means that His body is not material. One who thinks that the Supreme Lord assumes a material body is not intelligent. He has to learn more about the Lord's position.

One mahājana follows another mahājana, and by following the paramparā system of mahājana activities one can become advanced in spiritual consciousness. The water of the Ganges is sanctified because it emanates from the toe of Lord Viṣṇu. Bali Mahārāja washed the lotus feet of Vāmanadeva, and the water with which he did so became equal to the Ganges. Bali Mahārāja, who perfectly knew all religious principles, therefore took that water on his head, following in the footsteps of Lord Śiva." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/18/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/18/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..daca931e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/18/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 18, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 8.18.29", + "devanagari": "श्रीबलिर् उवाच\nस्वागतं ते नमस्तुभ्यं ब्रह्मन्किं करवाम ते\nब्रह्मर्षीणां तपः साक्षान्मन्ये त्वार्य वपुर्धरम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-balir uvāca\nsvāgataṁ te namas tubhyaṁ\nbrahman kiṁ karavāma te\nbrahmarṣīṇāṁ tapaḥ sākṣān\nmanye tvārya vapur-dharam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-baliḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Bali Mahārāja said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-āgatam", + "meanings": [ + "all welcome" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "namaḥ tubhyam", + "meanings": [ + "I offer my respectful obeisances unto You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahman", + "meanings": [ + "O brāhmaṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karavāma", + "meanings": [ + "can we do" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "for You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma-ṛṣīṇām", + "meanings": [ + "of the great brāhmaṇa sages" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tapaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "austerity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sākṣāt", + "meanings": [ + "directly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manye", + "meanings": [ + "I think" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvā", + "meanings": [ + "You" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārya", + "meanings": [ + "O noble one" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vapuḥ-dharam", + "meanings": [ + "personified." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Bali Mahārāja then said to Lord Vāmanadeva: O brāhmaṇa, I offer You my hearty welcome and my respectful obeisances.

As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.88.8), yasyāham anugṛhṇāmi hariṣye tad-dhanaṁ śanaiḥ. The Lord said to Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, \"The first installment of My mercy toward a devotee is that I take away all his possessions, especially his material opulence, his money.\" This is the special favor of the Lord toward a sincere devotee. If a sincere devotee wants Kṛṣṇa above everything but at the same time is attached to material possessions, which hinder his advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, by tactics the Lord takes away all his possessions. Here Śukrācārya says that this dwarf brahmacārī would take away everything. Thus he indicates that the Lord will take away all one's material possessions and also one's mind. If one delivers his mind to the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa (sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ), one can naturally sacrifice everything to satisfy Him.

Even if for the sake of argument the material world is accepted as untruth, the living entity entangled in the illusory energy cannot come out of it without the help of the body. Without the help of the body, one cannot follow a system of religion, nor can one speculate on philosophical perfection.

As long as the body exists one can thoroughly study the Vedic instructions, and thus at the end of life one can achieve perfection.

No one is prepared to accept any religious principle if it hampers material prosperity. Śukrācārya, being a person of this material world, did not know the principles of a devotee. A devotee is determined to serve the Supreme Personality of Godhead to His full satisfaction. Anything that hampers such determination should certainly be rejected. This is the principle of bhakti.

Therefore, he was a pure devotee, although born in a family of demons. There are two kinds of highly elevated devotees, called sādhana-siddha and kṛpā-siddha. Sādhana-siddha refers to one who has become a devotee by regular execution of the regulative principles mentioned in the śāstras, as ordered and directed by the spiritual master. If one regularly executes such devotional service, he will certainly attain perfection in due course of time. But there are other devotees, who may not have undergone all the required details of devotional service but who, by the special mercy of guru and Kṛṣṇa—the spiritual master and the Supreme Personality of Godhead—have immediately attained the perfection of pure devotional service. Examples of such devotees are the yajña-patnīs, Mahārāja Bali and Śukadeva Gosvāmī. The yajña-patnīs were the wives of ordinary brāhmaṇas engaged in fruitive activities. Although the brāhmaṇas were very learned and advanced in Vedic knowledge, they could not achieve the mercy of Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma, whereas their wives achieved complete perfection in devotional service, despite their being women. Similarly, Vairocani, Bali Mahārāja, received the mercy of Prahlāda Mahārāja, and by Prahlāda Mahārāja's mercy he also received the mercy of Lord Viṣṇu, who appeared before him as a brahmacārī beggar. Thus Bali Mahārāja became a kṛpā-siddha because of the special mercy of both guru and Kṛṣṇa. Caitanya Mahāprabhu confirms this favor: guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde pāya bhakti-latā-bīja (Cc. Madhya 19.151). Bali Mahārāja, by the grace of Prahlāda Mahārāja, got the seed of devotional service, and when that seed developed, he achieved the ultimate fruit of that service, namely love of Godhead (premā pum-artho mahān), immediately upon the appearance of Lord Vāmanadeva. Bali Mahārāja regularly maintained devotion for the Lord, and because he was purified, the Lord appeared before him. Because of unalloyed love for the Lord, he then immediately decided, \"I shall give this little dwarf brāhmaṇa whatever He asks from me.\" This is a sign of love. Thus Bali Mahārāja is understood to be one who received the highest perfection of devotional service by special mercy." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/20/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/20/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..2f13311a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/20/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,111 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 8.20.4", + "devanagari": "न ह्य् असत्यात्परो ऽधर्म इति होवाच भूर् इयम्\nसर्वं सोढुम् अलं मन्ये ऋते ऽलीकपरं नरम्", + "transliteration": "na hy asatyāt paro 'dharma\niti hovāca bhūr iyam\nsarvaṁ soḍhum alaṁ manye\nṛte 'līka-paraṁ naram", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asatyāt", + "meanings": [ + "than compulsion to untruthfulness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "more" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adharmaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "irreligion" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ha uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "indeed had spoken" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mother earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iyam", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarvam", + "meanings": [ + "everything" + ] + }, + { + "word": "soḍhum", + "meanings": [ + "to bear" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alam", + "meanings": [ + "I am able" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manye", + "meanings": [ + "although I think" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛte", + "meanings": [ + "except" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alīka-param", + "meanings": [ + "the most heinous liar" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naram", + "meanings": [ + "a human being." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "There is nothing more sinful than untruthfulness.

Although he may appear to have gone to hell or heaven, he does not live in either place; rather, he always lives in Vaikuṇṭha (sa guṇān samatītyaitān brahma-bhūyāya kalpate).

A devotee does not live alone. Of course, everyone lives with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but because the devotee is engaged in His service, he actually does not live in any material condition. Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura says, kīṭa-janma hao yathā tuyā dāsa. Thus he prays to take birth as an insignificant insect in the association of devotees.

This is the qualification of the demigods. But the demons, instead of accepting the exclusive proprietorship of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, claim the property of the universe for themselves through demarcations of nationalism. \"This part is mine, and that part is yours,\" they say. \"This part I can give in charity, and this part I can keep for my enjoyment.\" These are all demoniac conceptions.

In this way I shall be the greatest proprietor of everything.

He thought that since he had been defamed for his inability to fulfill his promise of charity, and since the body belonged to him, he would free himself from defamation by offering his body. Actually, however, the body does not belong to anyone but the Supreme Personality of Godhead, by whom the body is given. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (18.61):", + "īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ

Otherwise, Bali Mahārāja was nothing but a shameless demon, specifically described as tyakta-hriyas tvad-avaropita-kartṛ-vādāḥ, a foolish person claiming proprietorship over the property of the Supreme Person. In the present age, Kali-yuga, the number of such shameless men, who are agnostics disbelieving in the existence of God, has increased. Trying to defy the authority of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, so-called scientists, philosophers and politicians manufacture plans and schemes for the destruction of the world. They cannot do anything good for the world, and unfortunately, because of Kali-yuga, they have plunged the affairs of the world into mismanagement. Thus there is a great need for the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement for the benefit of innocent people who are being carried away by propaganda of such demons.

In other words, everyone can take shelter at the lotus feet of the Lord to enjoy equal benedictions from the Lord, but nondevotees do not do so, and therefore they suffer the consequences created by the material energy. We can understand this fact by a simple example. The king or government is equal to all citizens. Therefore, if a citizen capable of receiving special favors from the government is offered such favors, this does not mean that the government is partial. One who knows how to receive favors from the authority can receive them, but one who does not neglects these favors and does not receive them. There are two classes of men—the demons and the demigods. The demigods are fully aware of the Supreme Lord's position, and therefore they are obedient to Him, but even if demons know about the supremacy of the Lord they purposely defy His authority. Therefore, the Lord makes distinctions according to the mentality of the living being, but otherwise He is equal to everyone. Like a desire tree, the Lord fulfills the desires of one who takes shelter of Him, but one who does not take such shelter is distinct from the surrendered soul.

There is no other way.\" (Bṛhan-nāradīya Purāṇa 38.126) In this age of Kali, it is extremely difficult to perform Vedic ritualistic ceremonies or sacrifices perfectly. Hardly anyone can chant the Vedic mantras with perfect pronunciation or accumulate the paraphernalia for Vedic performances. Therefore the sacrifice recommended in this age is saṅkīrtana, constant chanting of the holy name of the Lord. Yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi sumedhasaḥ (Bhāg. 11.5.29). Instead of wasting time performing Vedic sacrifices, those who are intelligent, those who possess good brain substance, should take to the chanting of the Lord's holy name and thus perform sacrifice perfectly. I have seen that many religious leaders are addicted to performing yajñas and spending hundreds and thousands of rupees for imperfect sacrificial performances. This is a lesson for those who unnecessarily execute such imperfect sacrifices. We should take the advice of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu (yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi sumedhasaḥ). Although Śukrācārya was a strict brāhmaṇa addicted to ritualistic activities, he also admitted, niśchidram anusaṅkīrtanaṁ tava: \"My Lord, constant chanting of the holy name of Your Lordship makes everything perfect.\" In Kali-yuga the Vedic ritualistic ceremonies cannot be performed as perfectly as before. Therefore Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has recommended that although one should take care to follow all the principles in every kind of spiritual activity, especially in worship of the Deity, there is still a chance of discrepancies, and one should compensate for this by chanting the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement we therefore give special stress to the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra in all activities." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/23/verses/17.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/23/verses/17.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b4c19eae --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/23/verses/17.json @@ -0,0 +1,79 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 17, + "reference": "SB 8.23.17", + "devanagari": "तथापि वदतो भूमन्करिष्याम्य् अनुशासनम्\nएतच्छ्रेयः परं पुंसां यत्तवाज्ञानुपालनम्", + "transliteration": "tathāpi vadato bhūman\nkariṣyāmy anuśāsanam\netac chreyaḥ paraṁ puṁsāṁ\nyat tavājñānupālanam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tathāpi", + "meanings": [ + "although there was no fault on the part of Bali Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vadataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "because of Your order" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhūman", + "meanings": [ + "O Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kariṣyāmi", + "meanings": [ + "I must execute" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anuśāsanam", + "meanings": [ + "because it is Your order" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "this is" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śreyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that which is the most auspicious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṁsām", + "meanings": [ + "of all persons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "because" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tava ājñā-anupālanam", + "meanings": [ + "to obey Your order." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Lord Viṣṇu, I must nonetheless act in obedience to Your order because obeying Your order is most auspicious and is the first duty of everyone.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/23/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/23/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9383fc13 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/08/chapters/23/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,85 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 8, + "chapter": 23, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 8.23.18", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nप्रतिनन्द्य हरेर् आज्ञाम् उशना भगवान् इति\nयज्ञच्छिद्रं समाधत्त बलेर्विप्रर्षिभिः सह", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\npratinandya harer ājñām\nuśanā bhagavān iti\nyajña-cchidraṁ samādhatta\nbaler viprarṣibhiḥ saha", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratinandya", + "meanings": [ + "offering all obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ājñām", + "meanings": [ + "the order" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uśanāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Śukrācārya" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the most powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yajña-chidram", + "meanings": [ + "discrepancies in the performance of sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samādhatta", + "meanings": [ + "made it a point to fulfill" + ] + }, + { + "word": "baleḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of Bali Mahārāja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vipraṛṣibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the best brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saha", + "meanings": [ + "along with." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: In this way, the most powerful Śukrācārya accepted the order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead with full respect.

The Lord expands Himself through the living beings (nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām). His personal viṣṇu-tattva forms, which are all spiritual, are called svāṁśa, and the living entities who are differentiated parts are called vibhinnāṁśa. Some of the vibhinnāṁśa forms are spiritual, and some are a combination of matter and spirit. The conditioned souls in the material world are different from their external bodies made of material energy. Thus the demigods living in the upper planetary systems and the living entities living in the lower planetary system are of the same nature. Nonetheless, those living as human beings on this planet are sometimes attracted to worshiping the demigods in the higher planetary systems. Such worship is temporary. As the human beings on this planet have to change their bodies (tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ), the living entities known as Indra, Candra, Varuṇa and so on will also have to change their bodies in due course of time. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, antavat tu phalaṁ teṣāṁ tad bhavaty alpa-medhasām: \"Men of small intelligence worship the demigods, and their fruits are limited and temporary.\" Kāmais tais tair hṛta-jñānāḥ prapadyante 'nya-devatāḥ: those who do not know the position of the demigods are inclined to worship the demigods for some material purpose, but the results of such worship are never permanent. Consequently, here it is said, yathetareṣāṁ pṛthag-ātmanāṁ satām, padopasarpaṇaṁ mṛṣā bhavet. In other words, if one is to worship someone else, he must worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Then his worship will never be fruitless. Svalpam apy asya dharmasya trāyate mahato bhayāt: even a slight attempt to worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead is a permanent asset. Therefore, as recommended in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, tyaktvā sva-dharmaṁ caraṇāmbujaṁ hareḥ. One should take to the worship of the lotus feet of Hari, even if this means giving up the so-called occupational duty assigned because of the particular body one has accepted. Because worship in terms of the body is temporary, it does not bear any permanent fruit.

Brahmā's night takes place when Brahmā goes to sleep, but in the daytime there are fourteen Manus, one of whom is Cākṣuṣa Manu. Therefore, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura comments that although it was daytime for Lord Brahmā, Brahmā felt sleepy for a short time by the supreme will of the Lord. This short period is regarded as Lord Brahmā's night. This has been elaborately discussed by Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī in his Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛta. The following is a summary of his analysis. Because Agastya Muni cursed Svāyambhuva Manu, during the time of Svāyambhuva Manu a devastation took place. This devastation is mentioned in the Matsya Purāṇa. During the time of Cākṣuṣa Manu, by the supreme will of the Lord, there was suddenly another pralaya, or devastation. This is mentioned by Mārkaṇḍeya Ṛṣi in the Viṣṇu-dharmottara. At the end of Manu's time there is not necessarily a devastation, but at the end of the Cākṣuṣa-manvantara, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, by His illusory energy, wanted to show Satyavrata the effects of devastation. Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī also agrees with this opinion. The Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛta says:", + "ayam ākasmiko jātaś

The Lord reveals Himself in proportion to one's surrender to Him. Ye yathā māṁ prapadyante tāṁs tathaiva bhajāmy aham. In responsive cooperation, the Lord reveals Himself in proportion to one's surrender. That which is revealed to one who fully surrenders is different from what is revealed to one who surrenders partially. Everyone naturally surrenders to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, either directly or indirectly. The conditioned soul surrenders to the laws of nature in material existence, but when one fully surrenders to the Lord, material nature does not act upon him. Such a fully surrendered soul is favored by the Supreme Personality of Godhead directly. Mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te. One who has fully surrendered to the Lord has no fear of the modes of material nature, for everything is but an expansion of the Lord's glories (sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma), and these glories are gradually revealed and realized. The Lord is the supreme purifier (paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān). The more one is purified and the more he wants to know about the Supreme, the more the Lord reveals to him. Full knowledge of Brahman, Paramātmā and Bhagavān is revealed to the pure devotees. The Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (10.11):", + "teṣām evānukampārtham

When the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is chanted by many men together, the chanting is called saṅkīrtana, and as a result of such a yajña there will be clouds in the sky (yajñād bhavati parjanyaḥ). In these days of drought, people can gain relief from scarcity of rain and food by the simple method of the Hare Kṛṣṇa yajña. Indeed, this can relieve all of human society. At present there are droughts throughout Europe and America, and people are suffering, but if people take this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement seriously, if they stop their sinful activities and chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, all their problems will be solved without difficulty. In other processes of yajña there are difficulties because there are no learned scholars who can chant the mantras perfectly well, nor is it possible to secure the ingredients to perform the yajña. Because human society is poverty-stricken and men are devoid of Vedic knowledge and the power to chant the Vedic mantras, the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra is the only shelter. People should be intelligent enough to chant it. Yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi sumedhasaḥ.

Similarly, a brāhmaṇa or kṣatriya may be changed into a vaiśya, and a vaiśya into a brāhmaṇa or kṣatriya. This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ).

A great personality like Cyavana Muni has the temperament of always wanting to be in a superior position. Such a person cannot submit to anyone. Therefore, Cyavana Muni had an irritable temperament. His wife, Sukanyā, could understand his attitude, and under the circumstances she treated him accordingly. If any wife wants to be happy with her husband, she must try to understand her husband's temperament and please him. This is victory for a woman. Even in the dealings of Lord Kṛṣṇa with His different queens, it has been seen that although the queens were the daughters of great kings, they placed themselves before Lord Kṛṣṇa as His maidservants. However great a woman may be, she must place herself before her husband in this way; that is to say, she must be ready to carry out her husband's orders and please him in all circumstances. Then her life will be successful. When the wife becomes as irritable as the husband, their life at home is sure to be disturbed or ultimately completely broken. In the modern day, the wife is never submissive, and therefore home life is broken even by slight incidents. Either the wife or the husband may take advantage of the divorce laws. According to the Vedic law, however, there is no such thing as divorce laws, and a woman must be trained to be submissive to the will of her husband. Westerners contend that this is a slave mentality for the wife, but factually it is not; it is the tactic by which a woman can conquer the heart of her husband, however irritable or cruel he may be. In this case we clearly see that although Cyavana Muni was not young but indeed old enough to be Sukanyā's grandfather and was also very irritable, Sukanyā, the beautiful young daughter of a king, submitted herself to her old husband and tried to please him in all respects.

Therefore, before anything happened, He had already arranged for His cakra to protect Mahārāja Ambarīṣa. This protection is offered to a devotee even from the very beginning of his devotional service. Kaunteya pratijānīhi na me bhaktaḥ praṇaśyati (Bg. 9.31). If one simply begins devotional service, he is immediately protected by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (18.66): ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi. Protection begins immediately. The Lord is so kind and merciful that He gives the devotee proper guidance and all protection, and thus the devotee very peacefully makes solid progress in Kṛṣṇa consciousness without outward disturbances.

Because of this transcendental qualification, the Supreme Lord is extremely favorable to the devotees—indeed, not only the devotees, but also the devotees of the devotees. Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says, chāḍiyā vaiṣṇava-sevā nistāra pāyeche kebā: without being a devotee of a devotee, one cannot be released from material entanglement. Therefore Caitanya Mahāprabhu identified Himself as gopī-bhartuḥ pada-kamalayor dāsa-dāsānudāsaḥ. Thus he instructed us to become not directly servants of Kṛṣṇa but servants of the servant of Kṛṣṇa. Devotees like Brahmā, Nārada, Vyāsadeva and Śukadeva Gosvāmī are directly servants of Kṛṣṇa, and one who becomes a servant of Nārada, Vyāsadeva and Śukadeva, like the six Gosvāmīs, is still more devoted. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura therefore says, yasya prasādād bhagavat-prasādaḥ: if one very sincerely serves the spiritual master, Kṛṣṇa certainly becomes favorable to such a devotee.

Such pure devotees, who can increase the pleasure potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, are certainly most dear to Him. Not only does the Supreme Personality of Godhead enjoy the company of His devotees, but because He is unlimited He wants to increase His devotees unlimitedly. Thus, He descends to the material world to induce the nondevotees and rebellious living entities to return home, back to Godhead. He requests them to surrender unto Him because, unlimited as He is, He wants to increase His devotees unlimitedly. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is an attempt to increase the number of pure devotees of the Supreme Lord more and more. It is certain that a devotee who helps in this endeavor to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead becomes indirectly a controller of the Supreme Lord. Although the Supreme Lord is full in six opulences, He does not feel transcendental bliss without His devotees. An example that may be cited in this regard is that if a very rich man does not have sons in a family he does not feel happiness. Indeed, sometimes a rich man adopts a son to complete his happiness. The science of transcendental bliss is known to the pure devotee. Therefore the pure devotee is always engaged in increasing the transcendental happiness of the Lord." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/04/verses/65.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/04/verses/65.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7df0ef76 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/04/verses/65.json @@ -0,0 +1,118 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 4, + "verse": 65, + "reference": "SB 9.4.65", + "devanagari": "ये दारागारपुत्राप्त प्राणान्वित्तम् इमं परम्\nहित्वा मां शरणं याताः कथं तांस्त्यक्तुम् उत्सहे", + "transliteration": "ye dārāgāra-putrāpta-\nprāṇān vittam imaṁ param\nhitvā māṁ śaraṇaṁ yātāḥ\nkathaṁ tāṁs tyaktum utsahe", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "ye", + "meanings": [ + "those devotees of Mine who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dāra", + "meanings": [ + "wife" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agāra", + "meanings": [ + "house" + ] + }, + { + "word": "putra", + "meanings": [ + "children, sons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āpta", + "meanings": [ + "relatives, society" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāṇān", + "meanings": [ + "even life" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vittam", + "meanings": [ + "wealth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "imam", + "meanings": [ + "all these" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "elevation to the heavenly planets or becoming one by merging into Brahman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hitvā", + "meanings": [ + "giving up (all these ambitions and paraphernalia)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "unto Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇam", + "meanings": [ + "shelter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yātāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "having taken" + ] + }, + { + "word": "katham", + "meanings": [ + "how" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tān", + "meanings": [ + "such persons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tyaktum", + "meanings": [ + "to give them up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utsahe", + "meanings": [ + "I can be enthusiastic in that way (it is not possible)." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Since pure devotees give up their homes, wives, children, relatives, riches and even their lives simply to serve Me, without any desire for material improvement in this life or in the next, how can I give up such devotees at any time?", + "purport": [ + "The Supreme Personality of Godhead is worshiped by the words brahmaṇya-devāya go-brāhmaṇa-hitāya ca.

Formerly, such an offering was allowed, but in this age it is forbidden. In this age, Kali-yuga, everyone is expert in hunting animals, but most of the people are śūdras, not kṣatriyas. According to Vedic injunctions, however, only kṣatriyas are allowed to hunt, whereas śūdras are allowed to eat flesh after offering goats or other insignificant animals before the deity of goddess Kālī or similar demigods. On the whole, meat-eating is not completely forbidden; a particular class of men is allowed to eat meat according to various circumstances and injunctions. As far as eating beef is concerned, however, it is strictly prohibited to everyone. Thus in Bhagavad-gītā Kṛṣṇa personally speaks of go-rakṣyam, cow protection.

Thus in plain language it is advised that an exalted saintly person avoid the association of those who are materially inclined. Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura also recommends that one engage in the service of the ācāryas, and if one wants to live in association, he must live in the association of devotees (tāṅdera caraṇa sevi bhakta-sane vāsa). The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is creating many centers just to create devotees so that by associating with the members of such a center people will automatically become uninterested in material affairs. Although this is an ambitious proposal, this association is proving effective by the mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

Formerly, Viśvāmitra was a kṣatriya, and by undergoing severe austerities he wanted to become a brāhmaṇa, but Vasiṣṭha would not agree to accept him. In this way there was always disagreement between the two. Later, however, Vasiṣṭha accepted him because of Viśvāmitra's quality of forgiveness. Once Hariścandra performed a yajña for which Viśvāmitra was the priest, but Viśvāmitra, being angry at Hariścandra, took away all his possessions, claiming them as a contribution of dakṣiṇā. Vasiṣṭha, however, did not like this, and therefore a fight arose between Vasiṣṭha and Viśvāmitra. The fighting became so severe that each of them cursed the other. One of them said, \"May you become a bird,\" and the other said, \"May you become a duck.\" Thus both of them became birds and continued fighting for many years because of Hariścandra. We can see that such a great mystic yogī as Saubhari became a victim of sense gratification, and such great sages as Vasiṣṭha and Viśvāmitra became birds. This is the material world. Ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino 'rjuna. Within this material world, or within this universe, however elevated one may be in material qualities, one must suffer the conditions of birth, death, old age and disease (janma-mṛtyu-jarā-vyādhi). Therefore Kṛṣṇa says that this material world is simply miserable (duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam). The Bhāgavatam says, padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadām: at every step here there is danger. Therefore, because the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement provides the opportunity for the human being to get out of this material world simply by chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, this movement is the greatest benediction in human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/07/verses/08.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/07/verses/08.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..052bcd64 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/07/verses/08.json @@ -0,0 +1,79 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 8, + "reference": "SB 9.7.8", + "devanagari": "सो ऽनपत्यो विषण्णात्मा नारदस्योपदेशतः\nवरुणं शरणं यातः पुत्रो मे जायतां प्रभो", + "transliteration": "so 'napatyo viṣaṇṇātmā\nnāradasyopadeśataḥ\nvaruṇaṁ śaraṇaṁ yātaḥ\nputro me jāyatāṁ prabho", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "that Hariścandra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anapatyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being without a son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣaṇṇa-ātmā", + "meanings": [ + "therefore very morose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāradasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Nārada" + ] + }, + { + "word": "upadeśataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the advice" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varuṇam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Varuṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śaraṇam yātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "took shelter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "putraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "of me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jāyatām", + "meanings": [ + "let there be born" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabho", + "meanings": [ + "O my lord." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Hariścandra had no son and was therefore extremely morose.

But here we see that mother Ganges fears being burdened with the sins of the people in general who would bathe in her waters. This indicates that no one but the Supreme Personality of Godhead is able to neutralize the reactions of sinful deeds, whether one's own or those of others. Sometimes the spiritual master, after accepting a disciple, must take charge of that disciple's past sinful activities and, being overloaded, must sometimes suffer—if not fully, then partially—for the sinful acts of the disciple. Every disciple, therefore, must be very careful not to commit sinful activities after initiation. The poor spiritual master is kind and merciful enough to accept a disciple and partially suffer for that disciple's sinful activities, but Kṛṣṇa, being merciful to His servant, neutralizes the reactions of sinful deeds for the servant who engages in preaching His glories.

The living entity is within the material world to fulfill the mission of going back home, back to Godhead. In the material world, one hankers for happiness, but because one does not know the ultimate destination, one changes bodies one after another. However, if one gets the opportunity to possess a human form of body, in this body he can fulfill the four principles of dharma, artha, kāma and mokṣa, and if one is properly regulated he makes further progress, after liberation, to engage in the service of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa. This is the success of life: to stop the process of repeated birth and death and go back home, back to Godhead (mām eti), to be engaged in the service of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa. Therefore, taking a human body is meant for completing one's progress in life. Throughout human society, killing of a human being is taken very seriously. Hundreds and thousands of animals are killed in slaughterhouses, and no one cares about them, but the killing of even one human being is taken very seriously. Why?

Kṛṣṇa says, man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru: \"Engage your mind always in thinking of Me, offer obeisances and worship Me.\" (Bg. 9.34) Anyone can always think of Kṛṣṇa, without difficulties or obstacles. This is called kṛṣṇa-bhāvanāmṛta. One who is absorbed in kṛṣṇa-bhāvanāmṛta has no material benefits to ask from Kṛṣṇa. Instead, such a person prays to the Lord for the benediction of being able to spread His glories all over the world. Mama janmani janmanīśvare bhavatād bhaktir ahaitukī tvayi.

Dhyānāvasthita-tad-gatena manasā paśyanti yaṁ yoginaḥ [Bhāg. 1.2.11]. Because in material conditions the mind and senses are always agitated, by the yogic procedures like dhāraṇā, āsana and dhyāna one must quiet the mind and concentrate it upon the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In other words, the yogic process is a material attempt to realize the Lord, whereas bhakti, devotional service, is the spiritual process by which to realize Him. Mahārāja Khaṭvāṅga accepted the spiritual path, and therefore he was no longer interested in anything material. Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (18.55), bhaktyā mām abhijānāti: \"Only by devotional service can I be understood.\" One can understand Kṛṣṇa, the Parabrahman, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, only through devotional service. The Lord never says that one can understand Him by performing mystic yoga or by philosophically speculating. Bhakti is above all such material attempts. Anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyaṁ jñāna-karmādy-anāvṛtam.

Formerly men used to travel without conveyances, but still, as far as possible, when one leaves home one should not take his wife with him, especially if one is in such a condition as Lord Rāmacandra when banished by the order of His father. Whether in the forest or at home, if one is attached to women this attachment is always troublesome, as shown by the Supreme Personality of Godhead by His personal example.", + "Of course, this is the material side of strī-saṅgī, but the situation of Lord Rāmacandra is spiritual, for He does not belong to the material world. Nārāyaṇaḥ paro 'vyaktāt: Nārāyaṇa is beyond the material creation. Because He is the creator of the material world, He is not subject to the conditions of the material world. The separation of Lord Rāmacandra from Sītā is spiritually understood as vipralambha, which is an activity of the hlādinī potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead belonging to the śṛṅgāra-rasa, the mellow of conjugal love in the spiritual world. In the spiritual world the Supreme Personality of Godhead has all the dealings of love, displaying the symptoms called sāttvika, sañcārī, vilāpa, mūrcchā and unmāda. Thus when Lord Rāmacandra was separated from Sītā, all these spiritual symptoms were manifested. The Lord is neither impersonal nor impotent. Rather, He is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, the eternal form of knowledge and bliss. Thus He has all the symptoms of spiritual bliss. Feeling separation from one's beloved is also an item of spiritual bliss. As explained by Śrīla Svarūpa Dāmodara Gosvāmī, rādhā-kṛṣṇa-praṇaya-vikṛtir hlādinī-śaktiḥ: the dealings of love between Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa are displayed as the pleasure potency of the Lord. The Lord is the original source of all pleasure, the reservoir of all pleasure. Lord Rāmacandra, therefore, manifested the truth both spiritually and materially. Materially those who are attached to women suffer, but spiritually when there are feelings of separation between the Lord and His pleasure potency the spiritual bliss of the Lord increases.

āsurīṣv eva yoniṣu", + "\"Those who are envious and mischievous, who are the lowest among men, are cast by Me into the ocean of material existence, into various demoniac species of life.\" Thus the destination of godless atheists such as Rāvaṇa, Hiraṇyakaśipu, Kaṁsa and Dantavakra is a hellish condition of life. Mandodarī, the wife of Rāvaṇa, could understand all this because she was a chaste woman. Although lamenting for the death of her husband, she knew what would happen to his body and soul, for although one cannot see directly with one's material eyes, one can see with eyes of knowledge (paśyanti jñāna-cakṣuṣaḥ). In Vedic history there are many instances of how one becomes godless and is condemned by the laws of nature." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/10/verses/29.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/10/verses/29.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9b6feaef --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/10/verses/29.json @@ -0,0 +1,63 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 29, + "reference": "SB 9.10.29", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nस्वानां विभीषणश्चक्रे कोसलेन्द्रानुमोदितः\nपितृमेधविधानेन यद् उक्तं साम्परायिकम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\nsvānāṁ vibhīṣaṇaś cakre\nkosalendrānumoditaḥ\npitṛ-medha-vidhānena\nyad uktaṁ sāmparāyikam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svānām", + "meanings": [ + "of his own family members" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibhīṣaṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Vibhīṣaṇa, the brother of Rāvaṇa and devotee of Lord Rāmacandra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakre", + "meanings": [ + "executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kosala-indra-anumoditaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "approved by the King of Kosala, Lord Rāmacandra" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitṛ-medha-vidhānena", + "meanings": [ + "by the funeral ceremony performed by the son after the death of his father or some family member" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat uktam", + "meanings": [ + "which have been prescribed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sāmparāyikam", + "meanings": [ + "duties to be performed after a person's death to save him from the path to hell." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: Vibhīṣaṇa, the pious brother of Rāvaṇa and devotee of Lord Rāmacandra, received approval from Lord Rāmacandra, the King of Kosala.

It is sometimes said that people want the kingdom of God without God. Such an aspiration, however, is never to be fulfilled. Good government can exist when the relationship between the citizens and the government is like that exemplified by Lord Rāmacandra and His citizens. Lord Rāmacandra ruled His kingdom exactly as a father takes care of his children, and the citizens, being obliged to the good government of Lord Rāmacandra, accepted the Lord as their father. Thus the relationship between the citizens and the government should be exactly like that between father and son. When the sons in a family are well trained, they are obedient to the father and mother, and when the father is well qualified, he takes good care of the children. As indicated here by the words sva-dharma-niratā varṇāśrama-guṇān-vitāḥ, the people were good citizens because they accepted the institution of varṇa and āśrama, which arranges society in the varṇa divisions of brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra and the āśrama divisions of brahmacarya, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa. This is actual human civilization. People must be trained according to the different varṇāśrama occupational duties. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (4.13), cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ: the four varṇas must be established according to varying qualities and work. The first principle for good government is that it must institute this varṇāśrama system. The purpose of varṇāśrama is to enable people to become God conscious. Varṇāśramācāravatā puruṣeṇa paraḥ pumān viṣṇur ārādhyate. The entire varṇāśrama scheme is intended to enable people to become Vaiṣṇavas. Viṣṇur asya devatā. When people worship Lord Viṣṇu as the Supreme Lord, they become Vaiṣṇavas. Thus people should be trained to become Vaiṣṇavas through the system of varṇa and āśrama, as they were during the reign of Lord Rāmacandra, when everyone was fully trained to follow the varṇāśrama principles.", + "Simply enforcing laws and ordinances cannot make the citizens obedient and lawful. That is impossible. Throughout the entire world there are so many states, legislative assemblies and parliaments, but still the citizens are rogues and thieves. Good citizenship, therefore, cannot be enforced; the citizens must be trained. As there are schools and colleges to train students to become chemical engineers, lawyers or specialists in many other departments of knowledge, there must be schools and colleges to train students to become brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas, śūdras, brahmacārīs, gṛhasthas, vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs. This will provide the preliminary condition for good citizenship (varṇāśrama-guṇān-vitāḥ). Generally speaking, if the king or president is a rājarṣi, the relationship between the citizens and the chief executive will be clear, and there will be no possibility of disruption in the state, because the number of thieves and rogues will decrease. In Kali-yuga, however, because the varṇāśrama system is neglected, people are generally thieves and rogues. In the system of democracy, such thieves and rogues naturally collect money from other thieves and rogues, and thus there is chaos in every government, and no one is happy. But here the example of good government is to be found in the reign of Lord Rāmacandra.

This does not, of course, justify the Māyāvāda philosophy, by which one thinks himself the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The jīva, the living entity, is always different from the Supreme Lord. The living entities (vibhinnāṁśa) never become one with the Lord, although Māyāvādīs sometimes imitate the Lord's worship of Himself. Lord Kṛṣṇa meditated upon Himself every morning as a gṛhastha, and similarly Lord Rāmacandra performed yajñas to satisfy Himself, but this does not mean that an ordinary living being should imitate the Lord by accepting the process of ahaṅgraha-upāsanā.

The brāhmaṇas acted exactly like brāhmaṇas, the kṣatriyas exactly like kṣatriyas, and so on. Therefore, when Lord Rāmacandra gave everything in charity to the brāhmaṇas, the brāhmaṇas, being qualified, wisely considered that brāhmaṇas are not meant to possess property to make a profit from it. The qualifications of a brāhmaṇa are given in Bhagavad-gītā (18.42):", + "śamo damas tapaḥ śaucaṁ

Therefore, although the brāhmaṇas did not refuse Lord Rāmacandra's gift, after accepting it they returned it to the King. The brāhmaṇas were so pleased with Lord Rāmacandra's affection toward them that their hearts melted. They saw that Lord Rāmacandra, aside from being the Supreme Personality of Godhead, was fully qualified as a kṣatriya and was exemplary in character. One of the qualifications of a kṣatriya is to be charitable. A kṣatriya, or ruler, levies taxes upon the citizens not for his personal sense gratification but to give charity in suitable cases. Dānam īśvara-bhāvaḥ. On one hand, kṣatriyas have the propensity to rule, but on the other they are very liberal with charity. When Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira gave charity, he engaged Karṇa to take charge of distributing it. Karṇa was very famous as Dātā Karṇa. The word dātā refers to one who gives charity very liberally. The kings always kept a large quantity of food grains in stock, and whenever there was any scarcity of grains, they would distribute grains in charity. A kṣatriya's duty is to give charity, and a brāhmaṇa's duty is to accept charity, but not more than needed to maintain body and soul together.

One who becomes a devotee for some material profit is not a pure devotee. Brāhmaṇas are always enlightened by the Supreme Personality of Godhead within the heart (sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca). And because the brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas are always directed by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they are not greedy for material wealth. What is absolutely necessary they possess, but they do not want an expanded kingdom. An example of this was given by Vāmanadeva. Acting as a brahmacārī, Lord Vāmanadeva wanted only three paces of land.

In other words, the brahmajyoti stays outside the Vaikuṇṭha planets, just as the sunshine stays outside the sun. To enter the sun planet, one must go through the sunshine. Similarly, when the Lord or His devotees enter the Vaikuṇṭha planets, they go through the brahmajyoti.

Now, here is one example of the opulence of the Lord's kingdom. The streets of Ayodhyā were not only cleaned but also sprinkled with perfumed water and drops of perfumed liquor, which were distributed by elephants through their trunks. There was no need of sprinkling machines, for the elephant has a natural ability to suck water through its trunk and again throw it out in a shower. We can understand the opulence of the city from this one example: it was actually sprinkled with perfumed water. Moreover, the citizens had the opportunity to see the Lord personally supervising the affairs of the state. He was not a sleeping monarch, as we can understand from His activities in sending His brothers to see to affairs outside the capital and punish anyone who did not obey the emperor's orders. This is called dig-vijaya. The citizens were all given facilities for peaceful life, and they were also qualified with appropriate attributes according to varṇāśrama. As we have seen from the previous chapter, varṇāśrama-guṇānvitāḥ: the citizens were trained according to the varṇāśrama system. A class of men were brāhmaṇas, a class of men were kṣatriyas, a class were vaiśyas, and a class were śūdras. Without this scientific division, there can be no question of good citizenship. The King, being magnanimous and perfect in His duty, performed many sacrifices and treated the citizens as His sons, and the citizens, being trained in the varṇāśrama system, were obedient and perfectly ordered.

In a spiritual body the devotee becomes a direct associate of the Lord, but even though a devotee may superficially appear to be in a material body, he is always liberated and is engaged in the same duties of service to the Lord as a devotee in Vaikuṇṭhaloka. There is no distinction. It is said, sādhur jīvo vā maro vā. Whether a devotee is alive or dead, his only concern is to serve the Lord. Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti.

But in this connection the example may be given that a cat carries a mouse in its mouth and also carries a kitten in its mouth. Both the mouse and the kitten are carried in the same mouth, but the perception of the mouse is different from that of the kitten. When a devotee gives up his body (tyaktvā deham), he is ready to go back home, back to Godhead. Thus his perception is certainly different from that of a person being taken away by Yamarāja for punishment. A person whose intelligence is always concentrated upon the service of the Lord is unafraid of accepting a material body, whereas a nondevotee, having no engagement in the service of the Lord, is very much afraid of accepting a material body or giving up his present one. Therefore, we should follow the instruction of Caitanya Mahāprabhu: mama janmani janmanīśvare bhavatād bhaktir ahaitukī tvayi.

A kṣatriya is one who saves the citizens from being injured. In the so-called people's government there is no trained kṣatriya king; as soon as someone strong accumulates votes, he becomes the minister or president, without training from the learned brāhmaṇas expert in the śāstras. Indeed, we see that in some countries the government changes from party to party, and therefore the men in charge of the government are more eager to protect their position than to see that the citizens are happy. The Vedic civilization prefers monarchy. People liked the government of Lord Rāmacandra, the government of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and the governments of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, Mahārāja Ambarīṣa and Mahārāja Prahlāda. There are many instances of excellent government under a monarch. Gradually the democratic government is becoming unfit for the needs of the people, and therefore some parties are trying to elect a dictator.

The purpose of yajña is to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In this age, as we have explained many times, the yajña of chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra is the only sacrifice that can satisfy the Supreme Lord. When the Lord is satisfied, one can fulfill any desire, material or spiritual. Bhagavad-gītā (3.14) also says, yajñād bhavati parjanyaḥ: by offering sacrifices to Lord Viṣṇu, one can have sufficient rainfall. When there is sufficient rainfall, the earth becomes fit to produce everything (sarva-kāma-dughā mahī). If one can utilize the land properly, one can get all the necessities of life from the land, including food grains, fruits, flowers and vegetables. Everything one gets for material wealth is produced from the earth, and therefore it is said, sarva-kāma-dughā mahī (Bhāg. 1.10.4). Everything is possible by performing yajña. Therefore although Purūravā desired something material, he factually performed yajña to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord is adhokṣaja, beyond the perception of Purūravā and everyone else. Consequently, some kind of yajña must be performed to fulfill the desires of the living entity. Yajñas can be performed in human society only when society is divided by varṇāśrama-dharma into four varṇas and four āśramas. Without such a regulative process, no one can perform yajñas, and without the performance of yajñas, no material plans can make human society happy at any time. Everyone should therefore be induced to perform yajñas. In this age of Kali, the yajña recommended is saṅkīrtana, the individual or collective chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra.

Later, before the beginning of Kali-yuga, this one Veda, the Atharva Veda (or, some say, the Yajur Veda), was divided into four—Sāma, Yajur, Ṛg and Atharva—for the facility of human society. In Satya-yuga the only mantra was oṁkāra (oṁ tat sat). The same name oṁkāra is manifest in the mantra Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. Unless one is a brāhmaṇa, one cannot utter oṁkāra and get the desired result. But in Kali-yuga almost everyone is a śūdra, unfit for pronouncing the praṇava, oṁkāra. Therefore the śāstras have recommended the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra. Oṁkāra is a mantra, or mahā-mantra, and Hare Kṛṣṇa is also a mahā-mantra. The purpose of pronouncing oṁkāra is to address the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva (oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya). And the purpose of chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is the same. Hare: \"O energy of the Lord!\" Kṛṣṇa: \"O Lord Kṛṣṇa!\" Hare: \"O energy of the Lord!\" Rāma: \"O Supreme Lord, O supreme enjoyer!\" The only worshipable Lord is Hari, who is the goal of the Vedas (vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ). By worshiping the demigods, one worships the different parts of the Lord, just as one might water the branches and twigs of a tree. But worshiping Nārāyaṇa, the all-inclusive Supreme Personality of Godhead, is like pouring water on the root of the tree, thus supplying water to the trunk, branches, twigs, leaves and so on. In Satya-yuga people knew how to fulfill the necessities of life simply by worshiping Nārāyaṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The same purpose can be served in this age of Kali by the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, as recommended in the Bhāgavatam. Kīrtanād eva kṛṣṇasya mukta-saṅgaḥ paraṁ vrajet.

This is possible for everyone. Thus we find that in Bhagavad-gītā Lord Kṛṣṇa advises go-rakṣya, the protection of cows. This is essential because if cows are cared for properly they will surely supply sufficient milk. We have practical experience in America that in our various ISKCON farms we are giving proper protection to the cows and receiving more than enough milk. In other farms the cows do not deliver as much milk as in our farms; because our cows know very well that we are not going to kill them, they are happy, and they give ample milk. Therefore this instruction given by Lord Kṛṣṇa—go-rakṣya—is extremely meaningful. The whole world must learn from Kṛṣṇa how to live happily without scarcity simply by producing food grains (annād bhavanti bhūtāni) and giving protection to the cows (go-rakṣya). Kṛṣi-gorakṣya-vāṇijyaṁ vaiśya-karma svabhāvajam. Those who belong to the third level of human society, namely the mercantile people, must keep land for producing food grains and giving protection to cows. This is the injunction of Bhagavad-gītā. In the matter of protecting the cows, the meat-eaters will protest, but in answer to them we may say that since Kṛṣṇa gives stress to cow protection, those who are inclined to eat meat may eat the flesh of unimportant animals like hogs, dogs, goats and sheep, but they should not touch the life of the cows, for this is destructive to the spiritual advancement of human society." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/15/verses/26.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/15/verses/26.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..4eec73a0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/15/verses/26.json @@ -0,0 +1,93 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 15, + "verse": 26, + "reference": "SB 9.15.26", + "devanagari": "हविर्धानीम् ऋषेर्दर्पान्नरान्हर्तुम् अचोदयत्\nते च माहिष्मतीं निन्युः सवत्सां क्रन्दतीं बलात्", + "transliteration": "havirdhānīm ṛṣer darpān\nnarān hartum acodayat\nte ca māhiṣmatīṁ ninyuḥ\nsa-vatsāṁ krandatīṁ balāt", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "haviḥ-dhānīm", + "meanings": [ + "the kāmadhenu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ṛṣeḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the great sage Jamadagni" + ] + }, + { + "word": "darpāt", + "meanings": [ + "because of his being puffed up with material power" + ] + }, + { + "word": "narān", + "meanings": [ + "all his men (soldiers)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hartum", + "meanings": [ + "to steal or take away" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acodayat", + "meanings": [ + "encouraged" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "the men of Kārtavīryārjuna" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "māhiṣmatīm", + "meanings": [ + "to the capital of Kārtavīryārjuna" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ninyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "brought" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-vatsām", + "meanings": [ + "with the calf" + ] + }, + { + "word": "krandatīm", + "meanings": [ + "crying" + ] + }, + { + "word": "balāt", + "meanings": [ + "because of being taken away by force." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Being puffed up by material power, Kārtavīryārjuna encouraged his men to steal Jamadagni's kāmadhenu.

Yajña, therefore, is essential. For performing yajña, clarified butter is essential, and for clarified butter, cow protection is essential. Therefore, if we neglect the Vedic way of civilization, we shall certainly suffer. So-called scholars and philosophers do not know the secret of success in life, and therefore they suffer in the hands of prakṛti, nature (prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ). Nonetheless, although they are forced to suffer, they think they are advancing in civilization (ahaṅkāra-vimūḍhātmā kartāham iti manyate).

If according to astrological calculations the boy and girl were compatible in every respect, the match was called yoṭaka and the marriage would be accepted. Even fifty years ago, this system was current in Hindu society. Regardless of the affluence of the boy or the personal beauty of the girl, without this astrological compatibility the marriage would not take place. A person is born in one of three categories, known as deva-gaṇa, manuṣya-gaṇa and rākṣasa-gaṇa. In different parts of the universe there are demigods and demons, and in human society also some people resemble demigods whereas others resemble demons. If according to astrological calculations there was conflict between a godly and a demoniac nature, the marriage would not take place. Similarly, there were calculations of pratiloma and anuloma. The central idea is that if the boy and girl were on an equal level the marriage would be happy, whereas inequality would lead to unhappiness. Because care is no longer taken in marriage, we now find many divorces. Indeed, divorce has now become a common affair, although formerly one's marriage would continue lifelong, and the affection between husband and wife was so great that the wife would voluntarily die when her husband died or would remain a faithful widow throughout her entire life. Now, of course, this is no longer possible, for human society has fallen to the level of animal society. Marriage now takes place simply by agreement. Dāmpatye 'bhirucir hetuḥ (Bhāg. 12.2.3). The word abhiruci means \"agreement.\" If the boy and girl simply agree to marry, the marriage takes place.

For instance, when Vasudeva married Devakī, the mother of Kṛṣṇa, he married all six of her sisters, and she also had many friends who accompanied her. A king would maintain not only his wife but also the many friends and maidservants of his wife. Some of these maidservants would become pregnant and give birth to children. Such children were accepted as dāsī-putra, the sons of the maidservants, and the king would maintain them. The female population is always greater than the male, but since a woman needs to be protected by a man, the king would maintain many girls, who acted either as friends or as maidservants of the queen. In the history of Kṛṣṇa's household life we find that Kṛṣṇa married 16,108 wives. These were not maidservants but direct queens, and Kṛṣṇa expanded Himself into 16,108 forms to maintain different establishments for each and every wife. This is not possible for ordinary men.

Generally, unless one enjoys material happiness, one cannot attain renunciation. Varṇāśrama therefore gives the opportunity for gradual elevation. Yadu, the son of Mahārāja Yayāti, explained that he was unable to give up his youth, for he wanted to use it to attain the renounced order in the future.", + "Mahārāja Yadu was different from his brothers. As stated in the next verse, turvasuś coditaḥ pitrā druhyuś cānuś ca bhārata/ pratyācakhyur adharmajñāḥ. Mahārāja Yadu's brothers refused to accept their father's proposal because they were not completely aware of dharma. To accept orders that follow religious principles, especially the orders of one's father, is very important. Therefore when the brothers of Mahārāja Yadu refused their father's order, this was certainly irreligious. Mahārāja Yadu's refusal, however, was religious. As stated in the Tenth Canto, yadoś ca dharma-śīlasya: Mahārāja Yadu was completely aware of the principles of religion. The ultimate principle of religion is to engage oneself in devotional service to the Lord. Mahārāja Yadu was very eager to engage himself in the Lord's service, but there was an impediment: during youth the material desire to enjoy the material senses is certainly present, and unless one fully satisfies these lusty desires in youth, there is a chance of one's being disturbed in rendering service to the Lord. We have actually seen that many sannyāsīs who accept sannyāsa prematurely, not having satisfied their material desires, fall down because they are disturbed. Therefore the general process is to go through gṛhastha life and vānaprastha life and finally come to sannyāsa and devote oneself completely to the service of the Lord. Mahārāja Yadu was ready to accept his father's order and exchange youth for old age because he was confident that the youth taken by his father would be returned. But because this exchange would delay his complete engagement in devotional service, he did not want to accept his father's old age, for he was eager to achieve freedom from disturbances. Moreover, among the descendants of Yadu would be Lord Kṛṣṇa. Therefore, because Yadu was eager to see the Lord's appearance in his dynasty as soon as possible, Yadu refused to accept his father's proposal. This was not irreligious, however, because Yadu's purpose was to serve the Lord. Because Yadu was a faithful servant of the Lord, Lord Kṛṣṇa appeared in his dynasty. As confirmed in the prayers of Kuntī, yadoḥ priyasyānvavāye. Yadu was very dear to Kṛṣṇa, who was therefore eager to descend in Yadu's dynasty. In conclusion, Mahārāja Yadu should not be considered adharma-jña, ignorant of religious principles, as the next verse designates his brothers. He was like the four Sanakas (catuḥ-sana), who refused the order of their father, Brahmā, for the sake of a better cause. Because the four Kumāras wanted to engage themselves completely in the service of the Lord as brahmacārīs, their refusal to obey their father's order was not irreligious." + ] +} \ No newline at end

If one continuously or permanently concentrates on living with his family, he should be understood to be killing himself. In the Vedic civilization, therefore, it is recommended that one retire from family life at the end of his fiftieth year and go to vana, the forest. When he becomes expert or accustomed to forest life, or retired life as a vānaprastha, he should accept sannyāsa. Vanaṁ gato yad dharim āśrayeta [Bhāg. 7.5.5].

Therefore a woman must take shelter of her father, as Devayānī did when under the care of Śukrācārya, and then the father must give the daughter in charity to a suitable man, or a suitable man should help the woman by placing her under the care of a husband. This is shown vividly by the life of Devayānī. When King Yayāti delivered Devayānī from the well, she felt great relief and requested Yayāti to accept her as his wife. But when Mahārāja Yayāti accepted Devayānī, he became too attached and had sex life not only with her but with others, like Śarmiṣṭhā. Yet still he was dissatisfied.

Unless one gives up such desires, one's mind cannot be freed from material contamination. Therefore, if one is at all interested in being freed from the bondage of repeated birth, death, old age and disease, after a certain age one must go to the forest. Pañcāśordhvaṁ vanaṁ vrajet. After fifty years of age, one should voluntarily give up family life and go to the forest. The best forest is Vṛndāvana, where one need not live with the animals but can associate with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who never leaves Vṛndāvana. Cultivating Kṛṣṇa consciousness in Vṛndāvana is the best means of being liberated from material bondage, for in Vṛndāvana one can automatically meditate upon Kṛṣṇa. Vṛndāvana has many temples, and in one or more of these temples one may see the form of the Supreme Lord as Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa or Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma and meditate upon this form. As expressed here by the words brahmaṇy adhyāya, one should concentrate one's mind upon the Supreme Lord, Parabrahman. This Parabrahman is Kṛṣṇa, as confirmed by Arjuna in Bhagavad-gītā (paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān). Kṛṣṇa and His abode, Vṛndāvana, are not different. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, ārādhyo bhagavān vrajeśa-tanayas tad-dhāma vṛndāvanam. Vṛndāvana is as good as Kṛṣṇa. Therefore, if one somehow or other gets the opportunity to live in Vṛndāvana, and if one is not a pretender but simply lives in Vṛndāvana and concentrates his mind upon Kṛṣṇa, one is liberated from material bondage. One's mind is not purified, however, even in Vṛndāvana, if one is agitated by lusty desires. One should not live in Vṛndāvana and commit offenses, for a life of offenses in Vṛndāvana is no better than the lives of the monkeys and hogs there. Many monkeys and hogs live in Vṛndāvana, and they are concerned with their sexual desires. Men who have gone to Vṛndāvana but who still hanker for sex should immediately leave Vṛndāvana and stop their grievous offenses at the lotus feet of the Lord. There are many misguided men who live in Vṛndāvana to satisfy their sexual desires, but they are certainly no better than the monkeys and hogs. Those who are under the control of māyā, and specifically under the control of lusty desires, are called māyā-mṛga. Indeed, everyone in the conditional stage of material life is a māyā-mṛga. It is said, māyā-mṛgaṁ dayitayepsitam anvadhāvad: Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu took sannyāsa to show His causeless mercy to the māyā-mṛgas, the people of this material world, who suffer because of lusty desires. One should follow the principles of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and always think of Kṛṣṇa in full Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

Therefore Kṛṣṇa descends to teach the conditioned soul about spiritual realization and how to become free from material bondage. Yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati bhārata. The words dharmasya glāniḥ mean \"pollution of one's existence.\" Our existence is now polluted, and it must be purified (sattvaṁ śuddhyet). The human life is meant for this purification, not for thinking of happiness in terms of the external body, which is the cause of material bondage. Therefore, in this verse, Mahārāja Yayāti advises that whatever material happiness we see and whatever is promised for enjoyment is all merely flickering and temporary. Ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino 'rjuna. Even if one is promoted to Brahmaloka, if one is not freed from material bondage one must return to this planet earth and continue in the miserable condition of material existence (bhūtvā bhūtvā pralīyate). One should always keep this understanding in mind so as not to be allured by any kind of sense enjoyment, in this life or in the next. One who is fully aware of this truth is self-realized (sa ātma-dṛk), but aside from him, everyone suffers in the cycle of birth and death (mṛtyu-saṁsāra-vartmani). This understanding is one of true intelligence, and anything contrary to this is but a cause of unhappiness. Kṛṣṇa-bhakta—niṣkāma, ataeva 'śānta.'

To induce Śakuntalā to accept the marriage, Mahārāja Duṣmanta reminded her that as the daughter of a king she could select her husband in an open assembly. In the history of Āryan civilization there have been many instances in which famous princesses have selected their husbands in open competitions. For example, it was in such a competition that Sītādevī accepted Lord Rāmacandra as her husband and that Draupadī accepted Arjuna, and there are many other instances. So marriage by agreement or by selecting one's own husband in an open competition is allowed. There are eight kinds of marriage, of which marriage by agreement is called gāndharva marriage. Generally the parents select the husband or wife for their daughter or son, but gāndharva marriage takes place by personal selection. Still, although marriage by personal selection or by agreement took place in the past, we find no such thing as divorce by disagreement. Of course, divorce by disagreement took place among low-class men, but marriage by agreement was found even in the very highest classes, especially in the royal kṣatriya families. Mahārāja Duṣmanta's acceptance of Śakuntalā as his wife was sanctioned by Vedic culture.

This is also confirmed in the Vedas. Eko bahūnāṁ yo vidadhāti kāmān: although God is one, He maintains all living entities with their necessities for life. The living entities in different forms are sons of the Lord, and therefore the father, the Supreme Lord, supplies them food according to their different bodies. The small ant is supplied a grain of sugar, and the elephant is supplied tons of food, but everyone is able to eat. Therefore there is no question of overpopulation. Because the father, Kṛṣṇa, is fully opulent, there is no scarcity of food, and because there is no scarcity, the propaganda of overpopulation is only a myth. Actually one suffers for want of food when material nature, under the order of the father, refuses to supply him food. It is the living entity's position that determines whether food will be supplied or not. When a diseased person is forbidden to eat, this does not mean that there is a scarcity of food; rather, the diseased person requires the treatment of not being supplied with food. In Bhagavad-gītā (7.10) the Lord also says, bījaṁ māṁ sarva-bhūtānām: \"I am the seed of all living entities.\" A particular type of seed is sown within the earth, and then a particular type of tree or plant comes out.

Consequently, husband and wife should not separate under any condition, for if they have a child whom they raise to be a Vaiṣṇava, he can save both the father and mother from the custody of Yamarāja and punishment in hellish life." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/20/verses/23.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/20/verses/23.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..be75c584 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/20/verses/23.json @@ -0,0 +1,89 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 20, + "verse": 23, + "reference": "SB 9.20.23", + "devanagari": "पितर्य् उपरते सो ऽपि चक्रवर्ती महायशाः\nमहिमा गीयते तस्य हरेर् अंशभुवो भुवि", + "transliteration": "pitary uparate so 'pi\ncakravartī mahā-yaśāḥ\nmahimā gīyate tasya\nharer aṁśa-bhuvo bhuvi", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "pitari", + "meanings": [ + "after his father" + ] + }, + { + "word": "uparate", + "meanings": [ + "passed away" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the King's son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakravartī", + "meanings": [ + "the emperor" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahā-yaśāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "very famous" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mahimā", + "meanings": [ + "glories" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gīyate", + "meanings": [ + "are glorified" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "his" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hareḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṁśa-bhuvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a partial representation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvi", + "meanings": [ + "upon this earth." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: When Mahārāja Duṣmanta passed away from this earth, his son became the emperor of the world, the proprietor of the seven islands.

This verse says, māmateyaṁ purodhāya: Mahārāja Bharata engaged the son of Mamatā, Bhṛgu Muni, to take charge of performing this yajña. Now, however, such brāhmaṇas are impossible to find.

Therefore the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has taken charge of introducing the chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa all over the world. This Hare Kṛṣṇa movement is also yajña, but without the difficulties involved in securing paraphernalia and qualified brāhmaṇas. This congregational chanting can be performed anywhere and everywhere. If people somehow or other assemble together and are induced to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, all the purposes of yajña will be fulfilled. The first purpose is that there must be sufficient rain, for without rain there cannot be any produce (annād bhavanti bhūtāni parjanyād anna-sambhavaḥ). All our necessities can be produced simply by rainfall (kāmaṁ vavarṣa parjanyaḥ), and the earth is the original source of all necessities (sarva-kāma-dughā mahī). In conclusion, therefore, in this age of Kali people all over the world should refrain from the four principles of sinful life—illicit sex, meat-eating, intoxication and gambling—and in a pure state of existence should perform the simple yajña of chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra.

māyām etāṁ taranti te", + "\"This divine energy of Mine, consisting of the three modes of material nature, is difficult to overcome. But those who have surrendered unto Me can easily cross beyond it.\" If one wants to be free from the influence of māyā, the illusory energy, one must become Kṛṣṇa conscious and always keep Kṛṣṇa prominent within the core of his heart. In Bhagavad-gītā (9.34) the Lord advises that one always think of Him (man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru). In this way, by always being Kṛṣṇa-minded or Kṛṣṇa conscious, one can surpass the influence of māyā (māyām etāṁ taranti te). Because Rantideva was Kṛṣṇa conscious, he was not under the influence of the illusory energy. The word svapnavat is significant in this connection. Because in the material world the mind is absorbed in materialistic activities, when one is asleep many contradictory activities appear in one's dreams. When one awakens, however, these activities automatically merge into the mind. Similarly, as long as one is under the influence of the material energy he makes many plans and schemes, but when one is Kṛṣṇa conscious such dreamlike plans automatically disappear." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/21/verses/18.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/21/verses/18.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f3e49100 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/21/verses/18.json @@ -0,0 +1,53 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 21, + "verse": 18, + "reference": "SB 9.21.18", + "devanagari": "तत्प्रसंगानुभावेन रन्तिदेवानुवर्तिनः\nअभवन्योगिनः सर्वे नारायणपरायणाः", + "transliteration": "tat-prasaṅgānubhāvena\nrantidevānuvartinaḥ\nabhavan yoginaḥ sarve\nnārāyaṇa-parāyaṇāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tat-prasaṅga-anubhāvena", + "meanings": [ + "because of associating with King Rantideva (when talking with him about bhakti-yoga)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rantideva-anuvartinaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the followers of King Rantideva (that is, his servants, his family members, his friends and others)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhavan", + "meanings": [ + "became" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yoginaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "first-class mystic yogīs, or bhakti-yogīs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarve", + "meanings": [ + "all of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa-parāyaṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "devotees of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nārāyaṇa." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "All those who followed the principles of King Rantideva were totally favored by his mercy and became pure devotees, attached to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Nārāyaṇa.

The Lord's forms are proof of His inconceivable qualities. Although the Lord maintains innumerable universes within the period of His breath, He is dressed with a form exactly like that of a human being. That does not mean, however, that He is a human being.

The body is a kind of machine created and offered to the living entity by the material energy under the direction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore the living entity must accept a particular type of body awarded to him by māyā, the material energy, according to his karma.

Foolish people who because of a poor fund of knowledge think that one can equal Kṛṣṇa or become Kṛṣṇa are condemned in every way.

According to the Viśva-kośa dictionary, the word māyā is used in the sense of \"false pride\" and also in the sense of \"compassion.\" For an ordinary living being, the body in which he appears is his punishment.

Due to conditioned life, they are struggling very hard with the six senses, which include the mind.\" All the living entities are part and parcel of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and are as good as the Lord qualitatively, but quantitatively there is a great difference between them, for the Lord is unlimited whereas the living entities are limited. Thus the Lord possesses unlimited potency for pleasure, and the living entities have a limited pleasure potency. Ānandamayo 'bhyāsāt (Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.12). Both the Lord and the living entity, being qualitatively spirit soul, have the tendency for peaceful enjoyment, but when the part of the Supreme Personality of Godhead unfortunately wants to enjoy independently, without Kṛṣṇa, he is put into the material world, where he begins his life as Brahmā and is gradually degraded to the status of an ant or a worm in stool. This is called manaḥ ṣaṣṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛti-sthāni karṣati. There is a great struggle for existence because the living entity conditioned by material nature is under nature's full control (prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ). Because of his limited knowledge, however, the living entity thinks he is enjoying in this material world. Manaḥ ṣaṣṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛti-sthāni karṣati. He is actually under the full control of material nature, but still he thinks himself independent (ahaṅkāra-vimūḍhātmā kartāham iti manyate). Even when he is elevated by speculative knowledge and tries to merge into the existence of Brahman, the same disease continues. Āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padaṁ tataḥ patanty adhaḥ (Bhāg. 10.2.32).

Therefore out of compassion Kṛṣṇa creates this material world to give the living entity a chance to understand his real position. Bhagavad-gītā and similar Vedic literatures are presented so that the living being may understand his relationship with Kṛṣṇa. Vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ (Bg. 15.15). All these Vedic literatures are meant to enable the human being to understand what he is, what his actual position is, and what his relationship is with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is called brahma-jijñāsā. Every conditioned soul is struggling, but human life provides the best chance for him to understand his position.

Actually, however, this is not the fact. The fact is that there is a purpose for this creation: to give the conditioned soul a chance to return to his original consciousness, Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and then return home, back to Godhead, and be completely happy in the spiritual world. In the material world the conditioned soul is given a chance to satisfy his senses, but at the same time he is informed by Vedic knowledge that this material world is not his actual place for happiness. Janma-mṛtyu-jarā-vyādhi-duḥkha-doṣānudarśanam (Bg. 13.9). One must stop the repetition of birth and death.

But the asuras, the demons, impede the advancement of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, and therefore Kṛṣṇa arranges occasional fights between different asuras who are very much interested in increasing their military power. The duty of the government or king is not to increase military power unnecessarily; the real duty of the government is to see that the people of the state advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. For this purpose, Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.13), cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ: \"According to the three modes of material nature and the work ascribed to them, the four divisions of human society were created by Me.\" There should be an ideal class of men who are bona fide brāhmaṇas, and they should be given all protection. Namo brahmaṇya-devāya go-brāhmaṇa-hitāya ca. Kṛṣṇa is very fond of brāhmaṇas and cows. The brāhmaṇas promulgate the cause of advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and the cows give enough milk to maintain the body in the mode of goodness. The kṣatriyas and the government should be advised by the brāhmaṇas. Next, the vaiśyas should produce enough foodstuffs, and the śūdras, who cannot do anything beneficial on their own, should serve the three higher classes (the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas and vaiśyas). This is the arrangement of the Supreme Personality of Godhead so that the conditioned souls will be released from the material condition and return home, back to Godhead.

This liberation is the purpose of the creation and Kṛṣṇa's descent upon the surface of the earth. Demons are very much interested in advancing a plan by which people will labor hard like cats, dogs and hogs, but Kṛṣṇa's devotees want to teach Kṛṣṇa consciousness so that people will be satisfied with plain living and Kṛṣṇa conscious advancement. Although demons have created many plans for industry and hard labor so that people will work day and night like animals, this is not the purpose of civilization. Such endeavors are jagato'hitaḥ; that is, they are meant for the misfortune of the people in general. Kṣayāya: such activities lead to annihilation. One who understands the purpose of Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, should seriously understand the importance of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement and seriously take part in it. One should not endeavor for ugra-karma, or unnecessary work for sense gratification. Nūnaṁ pramattaḥ kurute vikarma yad indriya-prītaya āpṛṇoti (Bhāg. 5.5.4). Simply for sense gratification, people make plans for material happiness. Māyā-sukhāya bharam udvahato vimūḍhān (Bhāg. 7.9.43). They do this because they are all vimūḍhas, rascals.

Among the Bhojas, Vṛṣṇis, Andhakas, Pāṇḍavas and many other kings intimately related with Kṛṣṇa, the intimate relationship between Kṛṣṇa and the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana is especially to be noted. That relationship is described in this verse by the words nityotsavaṁ na tatṛpur dṛśibhiḥ pibantyaḥ. The inhabitants of Vṛndāvana especially, such as the cowherd boys, the cows, the calves, the gopīs and Kṛṣṇa's father and mother, were never fully satisfied, although they saw Kṛṣṇa's beautiful features constantly. Seeing Kṛṣṇa is described here as nitya-utsava, a daily festival. The inhabitants of Vṛndāvana saw Kṛṣṇa almost every moment, but when Kṛṣṇa left the village for the pasturing grounds, where He tended the cows and calves, the gopīs were very much afflicted because they saw Kṛṣṇa walking on the sand and thought that Kṛṣṇa's lotus feet, which they dared not place on their breasts because they thought their breasts not soft enough, were being pierced by broken chips of stone. By even thinking of this, the gopīs were affected, and they cried at home. These gopīs, who were therefore the exalted friends of Kṛṣṇa, saw Kṛṣṇa constantly, but because their eyelids disturbed their vision of Kṛṣṇa, the gopīs condemned the creator, Lord Brahmā. Therefore the beauty of Kṛṣṇa, especially the beauty of His face, is described here. At the end of the Ninth Canto, in the Twenty-fourth Chapter, we find a hint of Kṛṣṇa's beauty. Now we are proceeding to the Tenth Canto, which is considered Kṛṣṇa's head. The entire Śrīmad-Bhāgavata Purāṇa is the embodiment of Kṛṣṇa's form, and the Tenth Canto is His face. This verse gives a hint of how beautiful His face is. Kṛṣṇa's smiling face, with His cheeks, His lips, the ornaments in His ears, His chewing of betel nuts—all this was minutely observed by the gopīs, who thus enjoyed transcendental bliss, so much so that they were never fully satisfied to see Kṛṣṇa's face, but instead condemned the creator of the body for making eyelids that obstructed their vision. The beauty of Kṛṣṇa's face was therefore much more appreciated by the gopīs than by His friends the cowherd boys or even by Yaśodā Mātā, who was also interested in decorating the face of Kṛṣṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/24/verses/66.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/24/verses/66.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..622806b9 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/09/chapters/24/verses/66.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 9, + "chapter": 24, + "verse": 66, + "reference": "SB 9.24.66", + "devanagari": "जातो गतः पितृगृहाद्व्रजम् एधितार्थो हत्वा रिपून्सुतशतानि कृतोरुदारः\nउत्पाद्य तेषु पुरुषः क्रतुभिः समीजे आत्मानम् आत्मनिगमं प्रथयञ्जनेषु", + "transliteration": "jāto gataḥ pitṛ-gṛhād vrajam edhitārtho\nhatvā ripūn suta-śatāni kṛtorudāraḥ\nutpādya teṣu puruṣaḥ kratubhiḥ samīje\nātmānam ātma-nigamaṁ prathayañ janeṣu", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "jātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "after taking birth as the son of Vasudeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "went away" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pitṛ-gṛhāt", + "meanings": [ + "from the houses of His father" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vrajam", + "meanings": [ + "to Vṛndāvana" + ] + }, + { + "word": "edhita-arthaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "to exalt the position (of Vṛndāvana)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hatvā", + "meanings": [ + "killing there" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ripūn", + "meanings": [ + "many demons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "suta-śatāni", + "meanings": [ + "hundreds of sons" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛta-urudāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "accepting many thousands of wives, the best of women" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utpādya", + "meanings": [ + "begot" + ] + }, + { + "word": "teṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puruṣaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Person, who exactly resembles a human being" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kratubhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by many sacrifices" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samīje", + "meanings": [ + "worshiped" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmānam", + "meanings": [ + "Himself (because He is the person worshiped by all sacrifices)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātma-nigamam", + "meanings": [ + "exactly according to the ritualistic ceremonies of the Vedas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prathayan", + "meanings": [ + "expanding the Vedic principles" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "among the people in general." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, known as līlā-puruṣottama, appeared as the son of Vasudeva but immediately left His father's home and went to Vṛndāvana to expand His loving relationship with His confidential devotees.

The center of Vedic sacrifice is Kṛṣṇa (vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ). To advance in human life, human society must follow the Vedic principles personally demonstrated by Lord Kṛṣṇa in His householder life. The real purpose of Kṛṣṇa's appearance, however, was to manifest how one can take part in loving affairs with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Reciprocations of loving affairs in ecstasy are possible only in Vṛndāvana. Therefore just after His appearance as the son of Vasudeva, the Lord immediately left for Vṛndāvana. In Vṛndāvana, the Lord not only took part in loving affairs with His father and mother, the gopīs and the cowherd boys, but also gave liberation to many demons by killing them.

In Bhagavad-gītā the Lord is understood by Arjuna to be puruṣaṁ śāśvataṁ divyam—the eternal, transcendental Supreme Person. Here also we find the words utpādya teṣu puruṣaḥ.

Although the planetary systems are so arranged that the sun comes first, before the moon, Parīkṣit Mahārāja gave more respect to the dynasty of the moon-god, the soma-vaṁśa, because in the Yādava dynasty, descending from the moon, Kṛṣṇa had appeared. There are two different kṣatriya families of the royal order, one descending from the king of the moon planet and the other descending from the king of the sun. When the Supreme Personality of Godhead appears, He generally appears in a kṣatriya family because He comes to establish religious principles and the life of righteousness. According to the Vedic system, the kṣatriya family is the protector of the human race. When the Supreme Personality of Godhead appeared as Lord Rāmacandra, He appeared in the sūrya-vaṁśa, the family descending from the sun-god, and when He appeared as Lord Kṛṣṇa, He did so in the Yadu dynasty, or yadu-vaṁśa, whose descent was from the moon-god. In the Ninth Canto, Twenty-fourth Chapter, of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, there is a long list of the kings of the yadu-vaṁśa. All the kings in both the soma-vaṁśa and sūrya-vaṁśa were great and powerful, and Mahārāja Parīkṣit praised them very highly (rājñāṁ cobhaya-vaṁśyānāṁ caritaṁ paramādbhutam). Nonetheless, he wanted to hear more about the soma-vaṁśa because that was the dynasty in which Kṛṣṇa had appeared.", + "The supreme abode of the Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, is described in Brahma-saṁhitā as the abode of cintāmaṇi: cintāmaṇi-prakara-sadmasu kalpa-vṛkṣa-lakṣāvṛteṣu surabhīr abhipālayantam. The Vṛndāvana-dhāma on this earth is a replica of that same abode. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (8.20), in the spiritual sky there is another, eternal nature, transcendental to manifested and unmanifested matter. The manifested world can be seen in the form of many stars and planets such as the sun and moon, but beyond this is the unmanifested, which is imperceptible to those who are embodied. And beyond this unmanifested matter is the spiritual kingdom, which is described in Bhagavad-gītā as supreme and eternal. That kingdom is never annihilated. Although material nature is subject to repeated creation and annihilation, that spiritual nature remains as it is eternally. In the Tenth Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, that spiritual nature, the spiritual world, is described as Vṛndāvana, Goloka Vṛndāvana or Vraja-dhāma.

Although India is now fallen, when there is a message that someone will speak about Bhagavad-gītā or Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, thousands of people still gather to hear. This verse indicates, however, that such recitation of Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam must be done by persons completely freed from material desires (nivṛtta-tarṣaiḥ). Everyone within this material world, beginning from Brahmā down to the insignificant ant, is full of material desires for sense enjoyment, and everyone is busy in sense gratification, but when thus engaged one cannot fully understand the value of kṛṣṇa-kathā, either in the form of Bhagavad-gītā or in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.", + "If we hear the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead from liberated persons, this hearing will certainly free us from the bondage of material activities, but hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam spoken by a professional reciter cannot actually help us achieve liberation. Kṛṣṇa-kathā is very simple. In Bhagavad-gītā it is said that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As He Himself explains, mattaḥ parataraṁ nānyat kiñcid asti dhanañjaya: \"O Arjuna, there is no truth superior to Me.\" (Bg. 7.7) Simply by understanding this fact—that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead—one can become a liberated person. But, especially in this age, because people are interested in hearing Bhagavad-gītā from unscrupulous persons who depart from the simple presentation of Bhagavad-gītā and distort it for their personal satisfaction, they fail to derive the real benefit. There are big scholars, politicians, philosophers and scientists who speak on Bhagavad-gītā in their own polluted way, and people in general hear from them, being uninterested in hearing the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead from a devotee. A devotee is one who has no other motive for reciting Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam than to serve the Lord. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has therefore advised us to hear the glories of the Lord from a realized person (bhāgavata paro diya bhāgavata sthane). Unless one is personally a realized soul in the science of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, a neophyte should not approach him to hear about the Lord, for this is strictly forbidden by Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī, who quotes from the Padma Purāṇa:", + "avaiṣṇava-mukhodgīrṇaṁ
pūtaṁ hari-kathāmṛtam
śravaṇaṁ naiva kartavyaṁ

A Vaiṣṇava is nivṛtta-tṛṣṇa; that is, he has no material purpose, for his only purpose is to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So-called scholars, philosophers and politicians exploit the importance of Bhagavad-gītā by distorting its meaning for their own purposes. Therefore this verse warns that kṛṣṇa-kathā should be recited by a person who is nivṛtta-tṛṣṇa. Śukadeva Gosvāmī epitomizes the proper reciter for Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and Parīkṣit Mahārāja, who purposefully left his kingdom and family prior to meeting death, epitomizes the person fit to hear it. A qualified reciter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives the right medicine (bhavauṣadhi) for the conditioned souls. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is therefore trying to train qualified preachers to recite Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and Bhagavad-gītā throughout the entire world, so that people in general in all parts of the world may take advantage of this movement and thus be relieved of the threefold miseries of material existence.", + "The instructions of Bhagavad-gītā and the descriptions of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are so pleasing that almost anyone suffering from the threefold miseries of material existence will desire to hear the glories of the Lord from these books and thus benefit on the path of liberation. Two classes of men, however, will never be interested in hearing the message of Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam—those who are determined to commit suicide and those determined to kill cows and other animals for the satisfaction of their own tongues. Although such persons may make a show of hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam at a Bhāgavata-saptāha, this is but another creation of the karmīs, who cannot derive any benefit from such a performance. The word paśu-ghnāt is important in this connection. Paśu-ghna means \"butcher.\" Persons fond of performing ritualistic ceremonies for elevation to the higher planetary systems must offer sacrifices (yajñas) by killing animals. Lord Buddhadeva therefore rejected the authority of the Vedas because his mission was to stop animal sacrifices, which are recommended in Vedic ritualistic ceremonies.", + "nindasi yajña-vidher ahaha śruti-jātaṁ

Such a person cannot be interested in kṛṣṇa-kathā because he still has a desire for material sense gratification; he is not nivṛtta-tṛṣṇa. As it is said, traivargikās te puruṣā vimukhā hari-medhasaḥ. Those interested in trivarga—that is, in dharma, artha and kāma—are religious for the sake of achieving a material position with which to gain better facilities for sense gratification. Such persons are killing themselves by willingly keeping themselves in the cycle of birth and death. They cannot be interested in Kṛṣṇa consciousness.", + "For kṛṣṇa-kathā, topics about Kṛṣṇa consciousness, there must be a speaker and a hearer, both of whom can be interested in Kṛṣṇa consciousness if they are no longer interested in material topics. One can actually see how this attitude automatically develops in persons who are Kṛṣṇa conscious. Although the devotees of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement are quite young men, they no longer read materialistic newspapers, magazines and so on, for they are no longer interested in such topics (nivṛtta-tarṣaiḥ). They completely give up the bodily understanding of life. For topics concerning Uttamaśloka, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the spiritual master speaks, and the disciple hears with attention. Unless both of them are free from material desires, they cannot be interested in topics of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The spiritual master and disciple do not need to understand anything more than Kṛṣṇa because simply by understanding Kṛṣṇa and talking about Kṛṣṇa, one becomes a perfectly learned person (yasmin vijñāte sarvam evaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavati). The Lord sits within everyone's heart, and by the grace of the Lord the devotee receives instructions directly from the Lord Himself, who says in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15):", + "sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo
mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca
vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyo
vedānta-kṛd veda-vid eva cāham", + "\"I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness. By all the Vedas, I am to be known; indeed, I am the compiler of Vedānta, and I am the knower of the Vedas.\" Kṛṣṇa consciousness is so exalted that one who is perfectly situated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, under the direction of the spiritual master, is fully satisfied by reading kṛṣṇa-kathā as found in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad-gītā and similar Vedic literatures. Since merely talking about Kṛṣṇa is so pleasing, we can simply imagine how pleasing it is to render service to Kṛṣṇa.", + "When discourses on kṛṣṇa-kathā take place between a liberated spiritual master and his disciple, others also sometimes take advantage of hearing these topics and also benefit. These topics are the medicine to stop the repetition of birth and death. The cycle of repeated birth and death, by which one takes on different bodies again and again, is called bhava or bhava-roga. If anyone, willingly or unwillingly, hears kṛṣṇa-kathā, his bhava-roga, the disease of birth and death, will certainly stop. Therefore kṛṣṇa-kathā is called bhavauṣadha, the remedy to stop the repetition of birth and death. Karmīs, or persons attached to material sense enjoyment, generally cannot give up their material desires, but kṛṣṇa-kathā is such a potent medicine that if one is induced to hear kṛṣṇa-kīrtana, he will certainly be freed from this disease. A practical example is Dhruva Mahārāja, who at the end of his tapasya was fully satisfied. When the Lord wanted to give Dhruva a benediction, Dhruva refused it. Svāmin kṛtārtho'smi varaṁ na yāce. \"My dear Lord,\" he said, \"I am fully satisfied. I do not ask for any benediction for material sense gratification.\" We actually see that even young boys and girls in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement have given up their long practice of bad habits like illicit sex, meat-eating, intoxication and gambling. Because Kṛṣṇa consciousness is so potent that it gives them full satisfaction, they are no longer interested in material sense gratification." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git

As the Lord promises in Bhagavad-gītā (18.66), ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi mā śucaḥ: \"I shall deliver you from all sinful reactions. Do not fear.\" By taking shelter of Lord Kṛṣṇa, one comes under the safest protection. Thus when the Pāṇḍavas took shelter at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, all of them were on the safe side of the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra. Parīkṣit Mahārāja, therefore, felt obliged to think of Kṛṣṇa in the last days of his life. This is the ideal result of Kṛṣṇa consciousness: ante nārāyaṇa-smṛtiḥ. If at the time of death one can remember Kṛṣṇa, one's life is successful. Parīkṣit Mahārāja, therefore, because of his many obligations to Kṛṣṇa, intelligently decided to think of Kṛṣṇa constantly during the last days of his life. Kṛṣṇa had saved the Pāṇḍavas, Mahārāja Parīkṣit's grandfathers, on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra, and Kṛṣṇa had saved Mahārāja Parīkṣit himself when he was attacked by the brahmāstra of Aśvatthāmā. Kṛṣṇa acted as the friend and worshipable Deity of the Pāṇḍava family. Moreover, apart from Lord Kṛṣṇa's personal contact with the Pāṇḍavas, Kṛṣṇa is the Supersoul of all living entities, and He gives everyone liberation, even if one is not a pure devotee. Kaṁsa, for example, was not at all a devotee, yet Kṛṣṇa, after killing him, gave him salvation. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is beneficial to everyone, whether one is a pure devotee or a nondevotee. This is the glory of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Considering this, who will not take shelter at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa? Kṛṣṇa is described in this verse as māyā-manuṣya because He descends exactly like a human being. He is not obliged to come here, like karmīs, or ordinary living beings; rather, He appears by His own internal energy (sambhavāmy ātma-māyayā) just to show favor to the fallen conditioned souls. Kṛṣṇa is always situated in His original position as sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, and anyone who renders service to Him is also situated in his original, spiritual identity (svarūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ).

In relation to the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, we actually see that those who have tasted the nectar of kṛṣṇa-kathā lose all material desires, whereas those who cannot understand Kṛṣṇa or kṛṣṇa-kathā regard the Kṛṣṇa conscious life as \"brainwashing\" and \"mind control.\" While the devotees enjoy spiritual bliss, the nondevotees are surprised that the devotees have forgotten material hankerings." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/01/verses/14.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/01/verses/14.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5b846d12 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/01/verses/14.json @@ -0,0 +1,114 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 14, + "reference": "SB 10.1.14", + "devanagari": "सूत उवाच\nएवं निशम्य भृगुनन्दन साधुवादं वैयासकिः स भगवान् अथ विष्णुरातम्\nप्रत्यर्च्य कृष्णचरितं कलिकल्मषघ्नं व्याहर्तुम् आरभत भागवतप्रधानः", + "transliteration": "sūta uvāca\nevaṁ niśamya bhṛgu-nandana sādhu-vādaṁ\nvaiyāsakiḥ sa bhagavān atha viṣṇu-rātam\npratyarcya kṛṣṇa-caritaṁ kali-kalmaṣa-ghnaṁ\nvyāhartum ārabhata bhāgavata-pradhānaḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "sūtaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Sūta Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "niśamya", + "meanings": [ + "hearing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhṛgu-nandana", + "meanings": [ + "O son of the Bhṛgu dynasty, Śaunaka" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sādhu-vādam", + "meanings": [ + "pious questions" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vaiyāsakiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the son of Vyāsadeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhagavān", + "meanings": [ + "the most powerful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viṣṇu-rātam", + "meanings": [ + "unto Parīkṣit Mahārāja, who was always protected by Viṣṇu" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratyarcya", + "meanings": [ + "offering him respectful obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛṣṇa-caritam", + "meanings": [ + "topics of Lord Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kali-kalmaṣa-ghnam", + "meanings": [ + "which diminish the troubles of this age of Kali" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyāhartum", + "meanings": [ + "to describe" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ārabhata", + "meanings": [ + "began" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāgavata-pradhānaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the chief among the pure devotees." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Sūta Gosvāmī said: O son of Bhṛgu [Śaunaka Ṛṣi], after Śukadeva Gosvāmī, the most respectable devotee, the son of Vyāsadeva, heard the pious questions of Mahārāja Parīkṣit, he thanked the King with great respect.

Even long, long ago, asuras, persons devoid of God consciousness, became the heads of state, and now this is happening again. The various states of the world are preoccupied with arranging for military strength. Sometimes they spend sixty-five percent of the government's revenue for this purpose. But why should people's hard-earned money be spent in this way? Because of the present world situation, Kṛṣṇa has descended in the form of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.

This is confirmed in the beginning of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.1.1): tene brahma hṛdā ya ādi-kavaye. Ādi-kavi is Lord Brahmā. In the beginning of the creation, Lord Brahmā received the instructions of Vedic knowledge from Lord Viṣṇu through the medium of the heart (hṛdā). The same principle is confirmed herewith. While Brahmā was in trance, he was able to hear the words of Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and he carried the Lord's message to the demigods. Similarly, in the beginning, Brahmā first received the Vedic knowledge from the Supreme Personality of Godhead through the core of the heart.

There are innumerable universes, and the Lord is appearing in one of these universes at every moment. Therefore His pastimes are called nitya-līlā, eternal pastimes. The Lord's appearance as a child in the house of Devakī takes place continuously in one universe after another. Therefore, the devotee is first transferred to that particular universe where the pastimes of the Lord are current. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, even if a devotee does not complete the course of devotional service, he enjoys the happiness of the heavenly planets, where the most pious people dwell, and then takes birth in the house of a śuci or śrīmān, a pious brāhmaṇa or a wealthy vaiśya (śucīnāṁ śrīmatāṁ gehe yoga-bhraṣṭo 'bhijāyate). Thus a pure devotee, even if unable to execute devotional service completely, is transferred to the upper planetary system, where pious people reside. From there, if his devotional service is complete, such a devotee is transferred to the place where the Lord's pastimes are going on. Herein it is said, sambhavantu sura-striyaḥ. Sura-strī, the women of the heavenly planets, were thus ordered to appear in the Yadu dynasty in Vṛndāvana to enrich the pastimes of Lord Kṛṣṇa.

With the association of Lord Kṛṣṇa, either at Dvārakā-purī, Mathurā-purī or Vṛndāvana, they would certainly return home, back to Godhead.

In the spiritual world the Lord's potency works as yogamāyā, and in the material world the same potency works as mahāmāyā, exactly as electricity works in both a heater and a cooler. In the material world, this potency, working as mahāmāyā, acts upon the conditioned souls to deprive them more and more of devotional service. It is said, yayā sammohito jīva ātmānaṁ tri-guṇātmakam. In the material world the conditioned soul thinks of himself as a product of tri-guṇa, the three modes of material nature. This is the bodily conception of life. Because of associating with the three guṇas of the material potency, everyone identifies himself with his body. Someone is thinking he is a brāhmaṇa, someone a kṣatriya, and someone a vaiśya or śūdra. Actually, however, one is neither a brāhmaṇa, a kṣatriya, a vaiśya nor a śūdra; one is part and parcel of the Supreme Lord (mamaivāṁśaḥ), but because of being covered by the material energy, mahāmāyā, one identifies himself in these different ways.

Bhagavad-gītā compares the body to a dress and elaborately explains how one changes dresses one after another. The same Vedic knowledge is confirmed here. The living being, the soul, is constantly changing bodies one after another. Even in the present life, the body changes from childhood to boyhood, from boyhood to youth, and from youth to old age; similarly, when the body is too old to continue, the living being gives up this body and, by the laws of nature, automatically gets another body according to his fruitive activities, desires and ambitions.

The laws of nature are not subservient to the whimsical desires of the conditioned soul. Our endeavor, therefore, should be to associate always with sattva-guṇa and not indulge in rajo-guṇa or tamo-guṇa (rajas-tamo-bhāvāḥ).

The presence of the soul is perceived by consciousness, and one must purify his consciousness from material to spiritual, or, in other words, to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That which is spiritual is eternal, and that which is material is temporary. Without Kṛṣṇa consciousness, one's consciousness is always absorbed in temporary things. For everyone, therefore, Kṛṣṇa recommends in Bhagavad-gītā (9.34), man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru. One should always be absorbed in thought of Kṛṣṇa, one should become His devotee, one should always engage in His service and worship Him as the supreme great, and one should always offer Him obeisances. In the material world one is always a servant of a greater person, and in the spiritual world our constitutional position is to serve the Supreme, the greatest, paraṁ brahma. This is the instruction of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa' (Cc. Madhya 20.108).", + "To act in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the perfection of life and the highest perfection of yoga. As Lord Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (6.47):", + "yoginām api sarveṣāṁ

tyajaty ante kalevaram
taṁ tam evaiti kaunteya
sadā tad-bhāva-bhāvitaḥ", + "\"Whatever state of being one remembers when he quits his body, that state he will attain without fail.\" (Bg. 8.6) Therefore one must train the mind in the system of bhakti-yoga, as did Mahārāja Ambarīṣa, who kept himself always in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. One must fix the mind at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa twenty-four hours a day. If the mind is fixed upon Kṛṣṇa's lotus feet, the activities of the other senses will be engaged in Kṛṣṇa's service. Hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate: to serve Hṛṣīkeśa, the master of the senses, with purified senses is called bhakti. Those who constantly engage in devotional service are situated in a transcendental state, above the material modes of nature. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (14.26):", + "māṁ ca yo 'vyabhicāreṇa
bhakti-yogena sevate
sa guṇān samatītyaitān
brahma-bhūyāya kalpate", + "\"One who engages in full devotional service, who does not fall down in any circumstance, at once transcends the modes of material nature and thus comes to the level of Brahman.\" One must learn the secret of success from the Vedic literatures, especially when the cream of Vedic knowledge is presented by Bhagavad-gītā as it is.", + "Because the mind is ultimately controlled by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, the word apasmṛtiḥ is significant. Forgetfulness of one's own identity is called apasmṛtiḥ. This apasmṛtiḥ can be controlled by the Supreme Lord, for the Lord says, mattaḥ smṛtir jñānam apohanaṁ ca: \"From Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness.\" Instead of allowing one to forget one's real position, Kṛṣṇa can revive one's original identity at the time of one's death, even though the mind may be flickering. Although the mind may work imperfectly at the time of death, Kṛṣṇa gives a devotee shelter at His lotus feet. Therefore when a devotee gives up his body, the mind does not take him to another material body (tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti); rather, Kṛṣṇa takes the devotee to that place where He is engaged in His pastimes (mām eti), as we have already discussed in previous verses. One's consciousness, therefore, must always be absorbed in Kṛṣṇa, and then one's life will be successful. Otherwise the mind will carry the soul to another material body. The soul will be placed in the semen of a father and discharged into the womb of a mother. The semen and ovum create a particular type of body according to the form of the father and mother, and when the body is mature, the soul emerges in that body and begins a new life. This is the process of transmigration of the soul from one body to another (tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ).

Therefore Arjuna admitted that controlling the mind is not at all possible; this would be as difficult as controlling the wind. For example, if one were in a boat moving according to the wind on a river or the sea, and the wind were uncontrollable, the tilting boat would be very much disturbed and extremely difficult to control. It might even capsize. Therefore, in the bhava-samudra, the ocean of mental speculation and transmigration to different types of bodies, one must first control the mind.", + "By regulative practice one can control the mind, and this is the purpose of the yoga system (abhyāsa-yoga-yuktena). But there is a chance of failure with the yoga system, especially in this age of Kali, because the yoga system uses artificial means. If the mind is engaged in bhakti-yoga, however, by the grace of Kṛṣṇa one can very easily control it. Therefore Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has recommended, harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam. One should chant the holy name of the Lord constantly, for the holy name of the Lord is nondifferent from Hari, the Supreme Person.", + "By chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra constantly, one can fix the mind on the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa (sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ) and in this way achieve the perfection of yoga. Otherwise, the flickering mind will hover on the platform of mental speculation for sense enjoyment, and one will have to transmigrate from one type of body to another because the mind is trained only in relation to the material elements, or, in other words, to sense gratification, which is false. Māyā-sukhāya bharam udvahato vimūḍhān (Bhāg. 7.9.43). Rascals (vimūḍhān), being controlled by mental speculation, make huge arrangements by which to enjoy life temporarily, but they must give up the body at the time of death, when everything is taken away by Kṛṣṇa's external energy (mṛtyuḥ sarva-haraś cāham). At that time, whatever one has created in this life is lost, and one must automatically accept a new body by the force of material nature. In this life one may have constructed a very tall skyscraper, but in the next life, because of one's mentality, one may have to accept a body like that of a cat, a dog, a tree or perhaps a demigod. Thus the body is offered by the laws of material nature. Kāraṇaṁ guṇa-saṅgo 'sya sad-asad-yoni janmasu (Bg. 13.22).

The moon is stationary and is one, but when it is reflected in water or oil, it appears to take different shapes because of the movements of the wind. Similarly, the soul is the eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but when put into the material modes of nature, it takes different bodies, sometimes as a demigod, sometimes a man, a dog, a tree and so on. By the influence of māyā, the illusory potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the living entity thinks that he is this person, that person, American, Indian, cat, dog, tree or whatever. This is called māyā. When one is freed from this bewilderment and understands that the soul does not belong to any shape of this material world, one is situated on the spiritual platform (brahma-bhūta).", + "This realization is sometimes explained as nirākāra, or formlessness. This formlessness, however, does not mean that the soul has no form. The soul has form, but the external, agitating form he has acquired because of material contamination is false. Similarly, God is also described as nirākāra, which means that God has no material form but is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha. The living entity is part and parcel of the supreme sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, but his material forms are temporary, or illusory. Both the living entity and the Supreme Lord have original, spiritual forms (sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha), but the Lord, the Supreme, does not change His form. The Lord appears as He is, whereas the living entity appears because material nature forces him to accept different forms. When the living entity receives these different forms, he identifies with them, and not with his original, spiritual form. As soon as the living entity returns to his original, spiritual form and understanding, he immediately surrenders to the supreme form, the Personality of Godhead. This is explained in Bhagavad-gītā (7.19). Bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate. When the living entity, after many, many births in different forms, returns to his original form of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he immediately surrenders unto the lotus feet of the supreme form, Kṛṣṇa. This is liberation. As the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (18.54):", + "brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā
na śocati na kāṅkṣati
samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu
mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām", + "\"One who is thus transcendentally situated at once realizes the Supreme Brahman and becomes fully joyful. He never laments nor desires to have anything; he is equally disposed to every living entity. In that state he attains pure devotional service unto Me.\" Surrender unto the supreme form is the result of bhakti. This bhakti, or understanding of one's own position, is the complete liberation. As long as one is under an impersonal understanding of the Absolute Truth, he is not in pure knowledge, but must still struggle for pure knowledge. Kleśo 'dhikataras teṣām avyaktāsakta-cetasām (Bg. 12.5). Although one may be spiritually advanced, if one is attached to the impersonal feature of the Absolute Truth one must still work very hard, as indicated by the words kleśo 'dhikataraḥ, which mean \"greater suffering.\" A devotee, however, easily attains his original position as a spiritual form and understands the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His original form.", + "Kṛṣṇa Himself explains the forms of the living entities in the Second Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā, where He clearly says to Arjuna that He, Arjuna and all other living entities, who were previously in their original forms, are separate individual identities. They were individuals in the past, they are now situated in individuality, and in the future they will all continue to maintain their individual forms. The only difference is that the conditioned living entity appears in various material forms, whereas Kṛṣṇa appears in His original, spiritual form. Unfortunately, those who are not advanced in spiritual knowledge think that Kṛṣṇa is like one of them and that His form is like their material forms. Avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam (Bg. 9.11). Kṛṣṇa is never puffed up by material knowledge and is therefore called acyuta, whereas the living entities fall down and are agitated by material nature. This is the difference between the Supreme Lord and the living entities.", + "In this connection it is to be noted that Vasudeva, who was situated in a transcendental position, advised Kaṁsa not to commit further sinful activities. Kaṁsa, a representative of the demons, was always ready to kill Kṛṣṇa, or God, whereas Vasudeva represents a transcendentally situated person to whom Kṛṣṇa is born (Vāsudeva is the son of Vasudeva). Vasudeva wanted his brother-in-law Kaṁsa to refrain from the sinful act of killing his sister, since the result of being agitated by material nature would be that Kaṁsa would have to accept a body in which to suffer again and again.

An intelligent person, therefore, must free himself from the influence of the three modes of material nature and revive his original, spiritual body by engaging in the service of the Supreme Person, Kṛṣṇa. As long as one is materially attached, one must accept the process of birth, death, old age and disease. One is therefore advised that an intelligent person, instead of being entangled in so-called good and bad fruitive activities, should engage his life in advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness so that instead of accepting another material body (tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti), he will return home, back to Godhead." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/01/verses/44.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/01/verses/44.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..41439d5c --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/01/verses/44.json @@ -0,0 +1,101 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 1, + "verse": 44, + "reference": "SB 10.1.44", + "devanagari": "तस्मान्न कस्यचिद्द्रोहम् आचरेत्स तथाविधः\nआत्मनः क्षेमम् अन्विच्छन्द्रोग्धुर्वै परतो भयम्", + "transliteration": "tasmān na kasyacid droham\nācaret sa tathā-vidhaḥ\nātmanaḥ kṣemam anvicchan\ndrogdhur vai parato bhayam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tasmāt", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kasyacit", + "meanings": [ + "of anyone" + ] + }, + { + "word": "droham", + "meanings": [ + "envy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ācaret", + "meanings": [ + "one should act" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "a person (Kaṁsa)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tathā-vidhaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who has been advised in such a way (by Vasudeva)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "his own" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṣemam", + "meanings": [ + "welfare" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvicchan", + "meanings": [ + "if he desires" + ] + }, + { + "word": "drogdhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of one who is envious of others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vai", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from others" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhayam", + "meanings": [ + "there is a cause of fear." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Therefore, since envious, impious activities cause a body in which one suffers in the next life, why should one act impiously?

By the grace of the guru, the spiritual master, one can understand the different kinds of devas. The word deva refers to God, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the original source of all the demigods, who are also called devas. In Bhagavad-gītā (10.2) the Lord says, aham ādir hi devānām: \"I am the source of all the devas.\" The Supreme Lord, Viṣṇu, the Original person, expands in different forms. Tad aikṣata bahu syām (Chāndogya Upaniṣad 6.2.3). He alone has expanded into many. Advaitam acyutam anādim ananta-rūpam (Brahma-saṁhitā 5.33). There are different grades of forms, known as svāṁśa and vibhinnāṁśa. The svāṁśa expansions, or viṣṇu-tattva, are the Supreme Personality of Godhead, whereas the vibhinnāṁśa are jīva-tattva, who are part and parcel of the Lord (mamaivāṁśo jīva-loke jīva-bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥ). If we accept Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead and worship Him, all the parts and expansions of the Lord are automatically worshiped. Sarvārhaṇam acyutejyā (Bhāg. 4.31.14). Kṛṣṇa is known as Acyuta (senayor ubhayor madhye rathaṁ sthāpaya me 'cyuta). By worshiping Acyuta, Kṛṣṇa, one automatically worships all the demigods. There is no need of separately worshiping either the viṣṇu-tattva or jīva-tattva. If one concentrates upon Kṛṣṇa, one worships everyone.

When one is awake, whatever one sees or hears is impressed upon the mind, which later works in dreams to show one different experiences, although in dreams one appears to accept a different body. For example, when one is awake one does business and talks with customers, and similarly in dreams one meets various customers, talks about business and gives quotations. Madhvācārya says, therefore, that dreams take place according to what one sees, hears and remembers. When one reawakens, of course, one forgets the body of the dream. This forgetfulness is called apasmṛti. Thus we are changing bodies because we are sometimes dreaming, sometimes awake and sometimes forgetful. Forgetfulness of our previously created body is called death, and our work in the present body is called life. After death, one cannot remember the activities of one's previous body, whether imaginary or factual.", + "The agitated mind is compared to agitated water reflecting the sun and the moon. Actually the sun and moon reflected on the water do not exist there; nonetheless, they are reflected according to the movements of the water. Similarly, when our minds are agitated, we wander in different material atmospheres and receive different types of bodies. This is described in Bhagavad-gītā as guṇa-saṅga. Kāraṇaṁ guṇa-saṅgo 'sya. Madhvācārya says, guṇa-nubaddhaḥ san. And Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu says, brahmāṇḍa bhramite kona bhāgyavān jīva (Cc. Madhya 19.151). The living entity rotates up and down throughout the universe, sometimes in the upper planetary system, sometimes in the middle and lower planetary systems, sometimes as a man, sometimes a god, a dog, a tree and so on. This is all due to the agitation of the mind. The mind must therefore be steadily fixed. As it is said, sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayoḥ. One should fix one's mind at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, and then one will become free from agitation. This is the instruction of the Garuḍa Purāṇa, and in the Nāradīya Purāṇa the same process is described. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, yānti deva-vratā devān. The agitated mind goes to different planetary systems because it is attached to different kinds of demigods, but one does not go to the abode of the Supreme Personality of Godhead by worshiping the demigods, for this is not supported by any Vedic literature. Man is the architect of his own fortune. In this human life one has the facility with which to understand one's real situation, and one can decide whether to wander around the universe forever or return home, back to Godhead. This is also confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (aprāpya māṁ nivartante mṛtyu-saṁsāra-vartmani).", + "There is no such thing as chance. When a tree is burning in a forest fire and although the nearest tree is spared a distant tree catches fire, this may appear to be chance. Similarly, one may seem to get different types of bodies by chance, but actually one receives these bodies because of the mind. The mind flickers between accepting and rejecting, and according to the acceptance and rejection of the mind, we receive different types of bodies, although we superficially seem to obtain these bodies by chance. Even if we accept the theory of chance, the immediate cause for the change of body is the agitation of the mind.", + "Notes on aṁśa. This chapter describes that Kṛṣṇa appeared aṁśena, with His parts and parcels or His partial manifestation. In this connection, Śrīdhara Svāmī says that Kṛṣṇa is one hundred percent Bhagavān (kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam). Because of our imperfections, however, we cannot appreciate Kṛṣṇa in fullness, and therefore whatever Kṛṣṇa exhibited when present on earth was but a partial manifestation of His opulence. Again, Kṛṣṇa appeared with His plenary expansion Baladeva. Kṛṣṇa, however, is full; there is no question of His appearing partially. In the Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī, Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī says that to accept that Kṛṣṇa was partially manifested would contradict the statement kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī says that the word aṁśena means that Kṛṣṇa appeared with all His plenary expansions. The words aṁśena viṣṇoḥ do not mean that Kṛṣṇa is a partial representative of Viṣṇu. Rather, Kṛṣṇa appeared in fullness, and He manifests Himself partially in the Vaikuṇṭhalokas. In other words, Lord Viṣṇu is a partial representation of Kṛṣṇa; Kṛṣṇa is not a partial representation of Viṣṇu. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā, Chapter Four, this subject matter is explained very clearly. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura also notes that no one can describe Kṛṣṇa in fullness. Whatever descriptions we find in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are partial explanations of Kṛṣṇa. In conclusion, therefore, the word aṁśena indicates that Lord Viṣṇu is a partial representation of Kṛṣṇa, not that Kṛṣṇa is a partial representation of Viṣṇu.", + "Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī's Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī has explained the word dharma-śīlasya. The exact meaning of dharma-śīla is \"an unadulterated devotee.\" Real dharma consists of full surrender to Kṛṣṇa (sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja). One who has fully surrendered to Kṛṣṇa is actually religious. One such religious person was Mahārāja Parīkṣit. Anyone who accepts the principle of surrender to the lotus feet of the Lord, giving up all other systems of religion, is actually dharma-śīla, perfectly religious.", + "The word nivṛtta-tarṣaiḥ refers to one who no longer has any material desires (sarvopādhi-vinirmuktam). One may have many material desires because of contamination in this material world, but when one is completely free from all material desires, he is called nivṛtta-tṛṣṇa, which indicates that he no longer has any thirst for material enjoyment. Svāmin kṛtārtho 'smi varaṁ na yāce (Hari-bhakti-sudhodaya [7.28]). Materialistic persons want some material profit from executing devotional service, but this is not the purpose of service. The perfection of devotional service lies in complete surrender unto the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, with no material desires. One who surrenders in this way is already liberated. Jīvan-muktaḥ sa ucyate. One who is always busy serving Kṛṣṇa, in whatever condition he may live, is understood to be liberated even in this life. Such a person, who is a pure devotee, does not need to change his body; indeed, he does not possess a material body, for his body has already been spiritualized. An iron rod kept constantly within a fire will ultimately become fire, and whatever it touches will burn. Similarly, the pure devotee is in the fire of spiritual existence, and therefore his body is cin-maya; that is, it is spiritual, not material, because the pure devotee has no desire but the transcendental desire to serve the Lord. In text four the word upagīyamānāt is used: nivṛtta-tarṣair upagīyamānāt. Who will chant the glories of the Lord unless he is a devotee? Therefore the word nivṛtta-tarṣaiḥ indicates the devotee, and no one else. These are the remarks of ācāryas like Vīrarāghava Ācārya and Vijayadhvaja. To desire anything other than devotional service will diminish one's freedom from material desires, but when one is free from all such desires one is called nivṛtta-tarṣaiḥ [Bhāg. 10.1.4].", + "Vinā paśu-ghnāt. The word paśu means \"animal.\" An animal killer, paśu-ghna, cannot enter into Kṛṣṇa consciousness. In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, therefore, animal killing is completely prohibited.", + "Uttamaśloka-guṇānuvādāt. The word uttamaśloka means \"one who is famous as the best of those who are good.\" The Lord is good in all circumstances. That is His natural reputation. His goodness is unlimited, and He uses it unlimitedly. A devotee is also sometimes described as uttamaśloka, meaning that he is eager to glorify the Supreme Personality of Godhead or the Lord's devotees. Glorifying the Lord and glorifying the Lord's devotees are the same. Or, rather, glorifying the devotee is more important than glorifying the Lord directly. Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura explains this fact: chāḍiyā vaiṣṇava-sevā, nistāra pāyeche kebā. One cannot be liberated from material contamination without sincerely serving a devotee of Kṛṣṇa.", + "Bhavauṣadhāt means \"from the universal remedy.\" Chanting the holy name and glorifying the Supreme Lord are the universal remedy for all the miseries of materialistic life. Persons who desire to be freed from this material world are called mumukṣu. Such persons can understand the miseries of materialistic life, and by glorifying the activities of the Lord they can be released from all these miseries. The transcendental sound vibrations concerning the Lord's name, fame, form, qualities and paraphernalia are all nondifferent from the Lord. Therefore the very sound vibration of the Lord's glorification and name are pleasing to the ears, and by understanding the absolute nature of the Lord's name, form and qualities the devotee becomes joyful. Even those who are not devotees, however, enjoy the pleasing narrations of the Lord's transcendental activities. Even ordinary persons not very much advanced in Kṛṣṇa consciousness take pleasure in describing the narrations depicted in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. When a materialistic person is purified in this way, he engages in hearing and chanting the glories of the Lord. Because glorification of the Lord's pastimes is very pleasing to the ear and heart of the devotee, it is simultaneously his subject and object.", + "In this world there are three kinds of men: those who are liberated, those trying to be liberated, and those entangled in sense enjoyment. Of these three, those who are already liberated chant and hear the holy name of the Lord, knowing perfectly that to glorify the Lord is the only way to keep oneself in a transcendental position. Those who are trying to be liberated, the second class, may regard the chanting and hearing of the Lord's holy name as a process of liberation, and they too will feel the transcendental pleasure of this chanting. As for karmīs and persons engaged in sense gratification, they also may take pleasure in hearing the pastimes of the Lord, like His fighting on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra and His dancing in Vṛndāvana with the gopīs.", + "The word uttamaśloka-guṇānuvāda refers to the transcendental qualities of the Supreme Lord, such as His affection for Mother Yaśodā and His friends the cowherd boys and His loving attitude toward the gopīs. The Lord's devotees like Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira are also described by the qualification uttamaśloka-guṇānuvāda. The word anuvāda refers to describing the qualities of the Supreme Lord or His devotees. When these qualities are described, other devotees are interested in hearing them. The more one is interested in hearing about these transcendental qualities, the more one transcendentally enjoys. Everyone, therefore, including the mumukṣus, the vimuktas and the karmīs, should chant and hear the glories of the Lord, and in this way everyone will benefit.", + "Although the sound vibration of the transcendental qualities of the Lord is equally beneficial to all, for those who are muktas, liberated, it is especially pleasing. As described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Eighth Canto, Third Chapter, verse twenty, because pure devotees, who no longer have any material desires, surrender fully to the lotus feet of the Lord, they always merge in the ocean of bliss by chanting and hearing the Lord's holy name. According to this verse, devotees like Nārada and other residents of Śvetadvīpa are seen always engaged in chanting the holy name of the Lord because by such chanting they are always externally and internally blissful. The mumukṣus, persons desiring to be liberated, do not depend on the pleasures of the senses; instead, they concentrate fully on becoming liberated by chanting the holy name of the Lord. Karmīs like to create something pleasing to their ears and hearts, and although they sometimes like to chant or hear the glories of the Lord, they do not do it openly. Devotees, however, always spontaneously hear, chant about and remember the activities of the Lord, and by this process they are fully satisfied, even though these may seem like topics of sense gratification. Simply by hearing the transcendental narrations of the Lord's activities, Parīkṣit Mahārāja was liberated. He was therefore śrotramano-'bhirāma; that is, he glorified the process of hearing. This process should be accepted by all living entities.", + "To distinguish persons who are bereft of these transcendental pleasures, Parīkṣit Mahārāja has used the words virajyeta pumān. The word pumān refers to any person, whether man, woman or in-between. Because of the bodily conception of life, we are subject to lamentation, but one who has no such bodily conceptions can take pleasure in transcendental hearing and chanting. Therefore a person fully absorbed in the bodily concept of life is surely killing himself by not making spiritual progress. Such a person is called paśu-ghna. Especially excluded from spiritual life are the animal hunters, who are not interested in hearing and chanting the holy name of the Lord. Such hunters are always unhappy, both in this life and in the next. It is therefore said that a hunter should neither die nor live because for such persons both living and dying are troublesome. Animal hunters are completely different from ordinary karmīs, and thus they have been excluded from the process of hearing and chanting. Vinā paśu-ghnāt. They cannot enter into the transcendental pleasure of chanting and hearing the holy name of the Lord.", + "The word mahā-ratha refers to a great hero who can fight alone against eleven thousand other heroes, and the word atiratha, as found in text five, refers to one who can fight against an unlimited number. This is mentioned in the Mahābhārata as follows:", + "ekādaśa-sahasrāṇi
yodhayed yas tu dhanvinām
astra-śastra-pravīṇaś ca
mahā-ratha iti smṛtaḥ
amitān yodhayed yas tu
samprokto 'tirathas tu saḥ", + "This is the description given in the Bṛhad-vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī by Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī.", + "Māyā-manuṣyasya (10.1.17). Because of being covered by yogamāyā (nāhaṁ prakāśaḥ sarvasya yogamāyā-samāvṛtaḥ), Kṛṣṇa is sometimes called māyā-manuṣya, indicating that although He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He appears like an ordinary person. A misunderstanding arises because yogamāyā covers the vision of the general public. The Lord's position is actually different from that of an ordinary person, for although He appears to act like an ordinary man, He is always transcendental. The word māyā also indicates \"mercy,\" and sometimes it also means \"knowledge.\" The Lord is always full of all transcendental knowledge, and therefore although He acts like a human being, He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, full of knowledge. In His original identity, the Lord is the controller of māyā (mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sa-carācaram). Therefore the Lord may be called māyā-manuṣya, or the Supreme Personality of Godhead playing like an ordinary human being, although He is the controller of both the material and spiritual energies. The Lord is the Supreme Person, Puruṣottama, but because we are deluded by yogamāyā, He appears to be an ordinary person. Ultimately, however, yogamāyā induces even a nondevotee to understand the Lord as the Supreme Person, Puruṣottama. In Bhagavad-gītā we find two statements given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. For the devotees, the Lord says:", + "teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ
bhajatāṁ prīti-pūrvakam
dadāmi buddhi-yogaṁ taṁ
yena mām upayānti te", + "\"To those who are constantly devoted and worship Me with love, I give the understanding by which they can come to Me.\" (Bg. 10.10) Thus for the willing devotee the Lord gives intelligence by which to understand Him and return home, back to Godhead. For others, for nondevotees, the Lord says, mṛtyuḥ sarva-haraś cāham: \"I am all-plundering, inevitable death.\" A devotee like Prahlāda enjoys the activities of Lord Nṛsiṁha-deva, whereas nondevotees like Prahlāda's father, Hiraṇyakaśipu, meet death before Lord Nṛsiṁha-deva. The Lord therefore acts in two ways, by sending some onto the path of repeated birth and death and sending others back home, back to Godhead.", + "The word kāla, meaning \"black,\" indicates the color of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa. Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Rāmacandra, who both look blackish, give liberation and transcendental bliss to Their devotees. Among persons possessing material bodies, sometimes someone is able to subject death to his own will. For such a person, death is almost impossible because no one wants to die. But although Bhīṣmadeva possessed this power, Bhīṣma, by the supreme will of the Lord, died very easily in the Lord's presence. There have also been many demons who had no hope of salvation, yet Kaṁsa attained salvation by the supreme will of the Lord. Not to speak of Kaṁsa, even Pūtanā attained salvation and reached the level of the Lord's mother. Parīkṣit Mahārāja, therefore, was very eager to hear about the Lord, who has inconceivable qualities by which to give liberation to anyone. Parīkṣit Mahārāja, at the point of his death, was certainly interested in his liberation. When such a great and exalted personality as the Lord behaves like an ordinary human being although possessing inconceivable qualities, His behavior is called māyā. Therefore the Lord is described as māyā-manuṣya. This is the opinion of Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī. Mu refers to mukti, or salvation, and ku refers to that which is bad or very obnoxious. Thus muku refers to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who saves one from the bad condition of material existence. The Lord is called mukunda because He not only saves the devotee from material existence but offers him transcendental bliss in love and service.", + "As for Keśava, ka means Brahmā, and īśa means Lord Śiva. The Personality of Godhead captivates both Lord Brahmā and Lord Mahādeva, or Śiva, by His transcendental qualities. Therefore He is called Keśava. This opinion is given by Sanātana Gosvāmī in his Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī commentary.", + "It is said that all the demigods, accompanied by Tri-nayana, Lord Śiva, went to the shore of the ocean of milk and offered their prayers through the mantra known as puruṣa-sūkta. From this statement it is understood that the demigods cannot directly approach Lord Viṣṇu, who lies on the ocean of milk, or enter His abode. This is also clearly stated in the Mahābhārata, Mokṣa-dharma, and the next chapter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has His abode in Goloka (goloka-nāmni nija-dhāmni tale ca tasya). From Lord Kṛṣṇa come the catur-vyūha, the quadruple expansions Saṅkarṣaṇa, Aniruddha, Pradyumna and Vāsudeva. There are innumerable brahmāṇḍas, all of which emanate from the pores of Kāraṇodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, and in every brahmāṇḍa there is a Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, who is a partial expansion of Aniruddha. This Aniruddha is a partial expansion of Pradyumna, who is partially represented as Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, the Supersoul of all living entities. These Viṣṇu expansions are different from Kṛṣṇa, who resides in Goloka Vṛndāvana. When it is said that the demigods offered prayers to the Lord by chanting the puruṣa-sūkta, this indicates that they pleased the Lord by enunciating prayers of bhakti.", + "The word vṛṣākapi refers to one who satisfies His devotee in every way and frees His devotee from all material anxieties. Vṛṣa refers to religious performances like sacrifices. Even without the execution of sacrifices, the Lord can still enjoy the supermost comforts of the heavenly planets. The statement that Puruṣottama, Jagannātha, would appear in the house of Vasudeva distinguishes the Supreme Personality of Godhead from ordinary persons. The statement that He personally appeared indicates that He did not send His plenary expansion. The word priyārtham indicates that the Lord appeared to please Rukmiṇī and Rādhārāṇī. Priyā means \"the most beloved.\"", + "In the commentary of Śrī Vīrarāghava Ācārya, the following extra verse is accepted after text twenty-three:", + "ṛṣayo 'pi tad-ādeśāt
kalpyantāṁ paśu-rūpiṇaḥ
payo-dāna-mukhenāpi
viṣṇuṁ tarpayituṁ surāḥ", + "\"O demigods, even great sages, following the order of Viṣṇu, appeared in the forms of cows and calves to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead by delivering milk.\"", + "Rāmānujācārya sometimes accepts Baladeva as a śaktyāveśa-avatāra, but Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has explained that Baladeva is an expansion of Kṛṣṇa and that a part of Baladeva is Saṅkarṣaṇa. Although Baladeva is identical with Saṅkarṣaṇa, He is the origin of Saṅkarṣaṇa. Therefore the word svarāṭ has been used to indicate that Baladeva always exists in His own independence. The word svarāṭ also indicates that Baladeva is beyond the material conception of existence. Māyā cannot attract Him, but because He is fully independent, He can appear by His spiritual potency wherever He likes. Māyā is fully under the control of Viṣṇu. Because the material potency and yogamāyā mingle in the Lord's appearance, they are described as ekānaṁśā. Sometimes ekānaṁśā is interpreted to mean \"without differentiation.\" Saṅkarṣaṇa and Śeṣa-nāga are identical. As stated by Yamunādevī, \"O Rāma, O great-armed master of the world, who have extended Yourself throughout the entire universe by one plenary expansion, it is not possible to understand You fully.\" Therefore ekāṁśā refers to Śeṣa-nāga. In other words, Baladeva, merely by His partial expansion, sustains the entire universe.", + "The word kāryārthe refers to one who attracted the pregnancy of Devakī and bewildered Mother Yaśodā. These pastimes are very confidential. The Supreme Personality of Godhead ordered yogamāyā to bewilder His associates in His pastimes and bewilder demons like Kaṁsa. As stated previously, yogamāyāṁ samādiśat. To give service to the Lord, yogamāyā appeared along with mahāmāyā. Mahāmāyā refers to yayā sammohitaṁ jagat, \"one who bewilders the entire material world.\" From this statement it is to be understood that yogamāyā, in her partial expansion, becomes mahāmāyā and bewilders the conditioned souls. In other words, the entire creation has two divisions-transcendental, or spiritual, and material. Yogamāyā manages the spiritual world, and by her partial expansion as mahāmāyā she manages the material world. As stated in the Nārada Pañcarātra, mahāmāyā is a partial expansion of yogamāyā. The Nārada Pañcarātra clearly states that the Supreme Personality has one potency, which is sometimes described as Durgā. The Brahma-saṁhitā says, chāyeva yasya bhuvanāni bibharti durgā [Bs. 5.44]. Durgā is not different from yogamāyā. When one understands Durgā properly, he is immediately liberated, for Durgā is originally the spiritual potency, hlādinī-śakti, by whose mercy one can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead very easily. Rādhā kṛṣṇa-praṇaya-vikṛtir hlādinī-śaktir asmād [Ādi 1.5]. The mahāmāyā-śakti, however, is a covering of yogamāyā, and she is therefore called the covering potency. By this covering potency, the entire material world is bewildered (yayā sammohitaṁ jagat). In conclusion, bewildering the conditioned souls and liberating the devotees are both functions belonging to yogamāyā. Transferring the pregnancy of Devakī and keeping Mother Yaśodā in deep sleep were both done by yogamāyā; mahāmāyā cannot act upon such devotees, for they are always liberated. But although it is not possible for mahāmāyā to control liberated souls or the Supreme Personality of Godhead, she did bewilder Kaṁsa. The action of yogamāyā in presenting herself before Kaṁsa was the action of mahāmāyā, not yogamāyā. Yogamāyā cannot even see or touch such polluted persons as Kaṁsa. In Caṇḍī, in the Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa, Eleventh Chapter, Mahāmāyā says, \"During the twenty-eighth yuga in the period of Vaivasvata Manu, I shall take birth as the daughter of Yaśodā and be known as Vindhyācala-vāsinī.\"", + "The distinction between the two māyās—yogamāyā and mahā-māyā—is described as follows. Kṛṣṇa's rāsa-līlā with the gopīs and the gopīs' bewilderment in respect to their husbands, fathers-in-law and other such relatives were arrangements of yogamāyā in which mahāmāyā had no influence. The Bhāgavatam gives sufficient evidence of this when it clearly says, yogamāyām upāśritaḥ. On the other hand, there were asuras headed by Śālva and kṣatriyas like Duryodhana who were bereft of devotional service in spite of seeing Kṛṣṇa's carrier Garuḍa and the universal form, and who could not understand Kṛṣṇa to be the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This was also bewilderment, but this bewilderment was due to mahāmāyā. Therefore it is to be concluded that the māyā which drags a person from the Supreme Personality of Godhead is called jaḍamāyā, and the māyā which acts on the transcendental platform is called yogamāyā. When Nanda Mahārāja was taken away by Varuṇa, he saw Kṛṣṇa's opulence, but nonetheless he thought of Kṛṣṇa as his son. Such feelings of parental love in the spiritual world are acts of yogamāyā, not of jaḍamāyā, or mahāmāyā. This is the opinion of Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura.", + "Śūrasenāṁś ca. The son of Kārtavīryārjuna was Śūrasena, and the countries he ruled were also called Śūrasena. This is noted by Sanātana Gosvāmī in his Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī commentary.", + "In regard to Mathurā, we find this quotation:", + "mathyate tu jagat sarvaṁ
brahma-jñānena yena vā
tat-sāra-bhūtaṁ yad yasyāṁ
mathurā sā nigadyate", + "When a self-realized soul acts in his transcendental position, his situation is called Mathurā. In other words, when one acts in the process of bhakti-yoga, he may live anywhere, but actually he lives in Mathurā, Vṛndāvana. Devotion to Kṛṣṇa, the son of Nanda Mahārāja, is the essence of all knowledge, and wherever such knowledge is manifested is called Mathurā. Also, when one establishes bhakti-yoga, excluding all other methods, one's situation is called Mathurā. Yatra nityaṁ sannihito hariḥ: the place where Hari, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, lives eternally is called Mathurā. The word nitya indicates eternality. The Supreme Lord is eternal, and His abode is also eternal. Goloka eva nivasaty akhilātma-bhūtaḥ. Although the Lord is always stationed in His abode, Goloka Vṛndāvana, He is present everywhere in fullness. This means that when the Supreme Lord descends on the surface of the world, His original abode is not vacant, for He can remain in His original abode and simultaneously descend upon Mathurā, Vṛndāvana, Ayodhyā and other places. He does not need to descend, since He is already present there; He simply manifests Himself.", + "Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī has addressed Mahārāja Parīkṣit as tāta, or \"beloved son.\" This is due to parental love in the heart of Śukadeva Gosvāmī. Because Kṛṣṇa was soon coming as the son of Vasudeva and Devakī, out of parental affection Śukadeva Gosvāmī addressed Mahārāja Parīkṣit as tāta, \"my dear son.\"", + "In the Viśva-kośa dictionary, the word garbha is explained: garbho bhrūṇe arbhake kukṣāv ity ādi. When Kaṁsa was about to kill Devakī, Vasudeva wanted to dissuade him by the diplomacy of sāma and bheda. Sāma means \"pacifying.\" Vasudeva wanted to pacify Kaṁsa by indicating relations, gain, welfare, identity and glorification. Reference to these five concerns constitutes sāma, and Vasudeva's presentation of fear in two situations—in this life and the next—is called bheda. Thus Vasudeva used both sāma and bheda to pacify Kaṁsa. Praising Kaṁsa's qualifications was glorification, and praising him as a descendant of the bhoja-vaṁśa appealed to sambandha, relationship. Speaking of \"your sister\" was an appeal to identity. Speaking about killing a woman raises questions about fame and welfare, and arousing fear of the sinful act of killing one's sister during her marriage ceremony is an aspect of bheda. The Bhoja dynasty refers to those who were simply interested in sense gratification and were therefore not very aristocratic. Another meaning of bhoja is \"fighting.\" These were indications of defamation for Kaṁsa. When Vasudeva addressed Kaṁsa as dīna-vatsala, this was excessive praise. Kaṁsa would accept calves as a form of revenue from his poor constituents, and therefore he was called dīna-vatsala. Vasudeva knew very well that he could not by force rescue Devakī from the imminent danger. Devakī was actually the daughter of Kaṁsa's uncle, and therefore she is described as suhṛt, meaning \"relative.\" It is stated that Kaṁsa refrained from killing his close relation Devakī because if he had killed her, a great fight would have ensued among the other members of the family. Kaṁsa refrained from provoking this great danger of a family fight, for it would have caused many persons to lose their lives.", + "Formerly an asura named Kālanemi had six sons, named Haṁsa, Suvikrama, Krātha, Damana, Ripurmardana and Krodhahantā. They were known as the ṣaḍ-garbhas, or six garbhas, and they were all equally powerful and expert in military affairs. These ṣaḍ-garbhas gave up the association of Hiraṇyakaśipu, their grandfather, and underwent great austerities to satisfy Lord Brahmā, who, upon being satisfied, agreed to give them whatever benediction they might desire. When asked by Lord Brahmā to state what they wanted, the ṣāḍ-garbhas replied, \"Dear Lord Brahmā, if you want to give us a benediction, give us the blessing that we will not be killed by any demigod, mahā-roga, Yakṣa, Gandharva-pati, Siddha, Cāraṇa or human being, nor by great sages who are perfect in their penances and austerities.\" Brahmā understood their purpose and fulfilled their desire. But when Hiraṇyakaśipu came to know of these events, he was very angry at his grandsons. \"You have given up my association and have gone to worship Lord Brahmā,\" he said, \"and therefore I no longer have any affection for you. You have tried to save yourselves from the hands of the demigods, but I curse you in this way: Your father will take birth as Kaṁsa and kill all of you because you will take birth as sons of Devakī.\" Because of this curse, the grandsons of Hiraṇyakaśipu had to take birth from the womb of Devakī and be killed by Kaṁsa, although he was previously their father. This description is mentioned in the Hari-vaṁśa, Viṣṇu-parva, Second Chapter. According to the comments of the Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī, the son of Devakī known as Kīrtimān was the third incarnation. In his first incarnation he was known as Smara and was the son of Marīci, and later he became the son of Kālanemi. This is mentioned in the histories.", + "An additional verse in this chapter of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is accepted by the Madhvācārya-sampradāya, represented by Vijayadhvaja Tīrtha.

This is confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (13.3): kṣetra-jñaṁ cāpi māṁ viddhi sarva-kṣetreṣu bhārata. Lord Kṛṣṇa is the kṣetra jña, or Supersoul, of all living entities. He is the original source of all expansions of the Personality of Godhead. There are hundreds and thousands of plenary expansions of Viṣṇu, such as Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna, Aniruddha and Vāsudeva, but here in this material world, the Viśvātmā, the Supersoul for all living entities, is Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu.

Knowing this fact, a pure devotee acts in such a way that he will not have his life spoiled by being obliged to accept another body and undergo the tribulations of material existence. This is bhayam, or fear. Bhayaṁ dvitīyābhiniveśataḥ syāt (Bhāg. 11.2.37). This fear is due to material existence. Properly speaking, everyone should always be alert and fearful of material existence, but although everyone is prone to be affected by the ignorance of material existence, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, is always alert to the protection of His devotees. Kṛṣṇa is so kind and affectionate toward His devotees that He helps them by giving them the intelligence by which to exist in this material world without forgetting Him even for a moment.

Out of affection for His devotees, the Lord always stays in spiritual touch with them, although otherwise His māyā potency is so strong that she bewilders even exalted demigods like Brahmā.

Everything is an expansion of Brahman, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, yet everything is not the Supreme Godhead, and He is not everywhere. Everything rests upon Him and yet does not rest upon Him. This can be explained only through the acintya-bhedābheda philosophy. Such truths cannot be understood, however, unless one is a pure devotee, for the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (18.55), bhaktyā mām abhijānāti yāvān yaś cāsmi tattvataḥ: \"One can understand the Supreme Personality as He is only by devotional service.\" Even though the Lord cannot be understood by ordinary persons, this principle should be understood from the statement of the śāstras.", + "A pure devotee is always transcendentally situated because of executing nine different processes of bhakti-yoga (śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ smaranaṁ pāda-sevanam/ arcanaṁ vandanaṁ dāsyaṁ sakhyam ātma-nivedanam).

A pure devotee should always fear material association, and in this way all the asuras of material association will be killed, as the ṣaḍ-garbhāsuras were killed by Kaṁsa. It is said that from the mind, Marīci appears. In other words, Marīci is an incarnation of the mind. Marīci has six sons: Kāma, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada and Mātsarya (lust, anger, greed, illusion, madness and envy). The Supreme Personality of Godhead appears in pure devotional service. This is confirmed in the Vedas: bhaktir evainaṁ darśayati. Only bhakti can bring one in contact with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Supreme Personality of Godhead appeared from the womb of Devakī, and therefore Devakī symbolically represents bhakti, and Kaṁsa symbolically represents material fear. When a pure devotee always fears material association, his real position of bhakti is manifested, and he naturally becomes uninterested in material enjoyment. When the six sons of Marīci are killed by such fear and one is freed from material contamination, within the womb of bhakti the Supreme Personality of Godhead appears. Thus the seventh pregnancy of Devakī signifies the appearance of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. After the six sons Kāma, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Mada and Mātsarya are killed, the Śeṣa incarnation creates a suitable situation for the appearance of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Yogamāyā naturally could not see how it was possible for her to attract Saṅkarṣaṇa. Therefore Kṛṣṇa addressed her as śubhe, auspicious, and said, \"Be blessed. Take power from Me, and you will be able to do it.\" By the grace of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, anyone can do anything, for the Lord is present in everything, all things being His parts and parcels (aṁśa-bhāgena) and increasing or decreasing by His supreme will. Balarāma was only fifteen days older than Kṛṣṇa.

As stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.39), rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan: the Lord is always situated with all His plenary expansions, such as Rāma, Nṛsiṁha and Varāha. Therefore the word acyutāṁśam is specifically used here, signifying that the Lord is always present with His plenary expansions and opulences. There is no need to think of the Lord artificially as yogīs do. Dhyānāvasthita-tad-gatena manasā paśyanti yaṁ yoginaḥ (Bhāg. 12.13.1). Yogīs meditate upon the Supreme person within the mind. For a devotee, however, the Lord is present, and His presence need only be awakened through initiation by a bona fide spiritual master. The Lord did not need to live within the womb of Devakī, for His presence within the core of her heart was sufficient to carry Him. One is here forbidden to think that Kṛṣṇa was begotten by Vasudeva within the womb of Devakī and that she carried the child within her womb.", + "When Vasudeva was sustaining the form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead within his heart, he appeared just like the glowing sun, whose shining rays are always unbearable and scorching to the common man. The form of the Lord situated in the pure, unalloyed heart of Vasudeva is not different from the original form of Kṛṣṇa.

In this way, Devakī became the residence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is one without a second and the cause of all creation. Devakī became the residence of the Absolute Truth, but because she was within the house of Kaṁsa, she looked just like a suppressed fire, or like misused education. When fire is covered by the walls of a pot or is kept in a jug, the illuminating rays of the fire cannot be very much appreciated.

Now, therefore, the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement has been set up to distribute this knowledge as it is, without distortion. Although previously there were attempts to distribute the knowledge of Bhagavad-gītā, these attempts involved distortion and compromise with mundane knowledge. But now the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, without mundane compromises, is distributing Bhagavad-gītā as it is, and people are deriving the benefits of awakening to Kṛṣṇa consciousness and becoming devotees of Lord Kṛṣṇa. Therefore the proper distribution of knowledge has begun by which not only will the whole world benefit, but India's glory will be magnified in human society. Kaṁsa tried to arrest Kṛṣṇa consciousness within his house (bhojendra-gehe), with the result that Kaṁsa, with all his opulences, was later vanquished. Similarly, the real knowledge of Bhagavad-gītā was being choked by unscrupulous Indian leaders, with the result that India's culture, and knowledge of the Supreme were being lost.

As clearly stated in Bhagavad-gītā (dehino 'smin yathā dehe), within the body is the body's proprietor, the living force, which is more important. But human society has become so fallen that instead of understanding the living force within the body, people have become busy with external things. This is a discrepancy in human duties. Therefore Kṛṣṇa has taken birth or taken shelter within the womb of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Men of Kaṁsa's class, therefore, are very much afraid and are busy trying to stop this movement, especially in the Western countries. One politician has remarked that the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is spreading like an epidemic and that if not checked immediately, within ten years it may capture governmental power. There is, of course, such potency in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. As stated by authorities (Cc. Ādi 17.22), kali-kāle nāma-rūpe kṛṣṇa-avatāra: in this age, Kṛṣṇa has appeared in the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is spreading like wildfire all over the world, and it will go on doing so. Men who are like Kaṁsa are very much afraid of the movement's progress and acceptance by the younger generation, but as Kṛṣṇa could not be killed by Kaṁsa, this movement cannot be checked by men of Kaṁsa's class. The movement will go on increasing more and more, provided the leaders of the movement remain firmly Kṛṣṇa conscious by following the regulative principles and the primary activities of chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra regularly." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/21.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/21.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a4734270 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/21.json @@ -0,0 +1,135 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 21, + "reference": "SB 10.2.21", + "devanagari": "किम् अद्य तस्मिन्करणीयम् आशु मे यद् अर्थतन्त्रो न विहन्ति विक्रमम्\nस्त्रियाः स्वसुर्गुरुमत्या वधो ऽयं यशः श्रियं हन्त्य् अनुकालम् आयुः", + "transliteration": "kim adya tasmin karaṇīyam āśu me\nyad artha-tantro na vihanti vikramam\nstriyāḥ svasur gurumatyā vadho 'yaṁ\nyaśaḥ śriyaṁ hanty anukālam āyuḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adya", + "meanings": [ + "now, immediately" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasmin", + "meanings": [ + "in this situation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karaṇīyam", + "meanings": [ + "is to be done" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āśu", + "meanings": [ + "without delay" + ] + }, + { + "word": "me", + "meanings": [ + "my duty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "because" + ] + }, + { + "word": "artha-tantraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is always determined to protect the sādhus and kill the asādhus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "does not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vihanti", + "meanings": [ + "give up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vikramam", + "meanings": [ + "His prowess" + ] + }, + { + "word": "striyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of a woman" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svasuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of my sister" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guru-matyāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "especially when she is pregnant" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vadhaḥ ayam", + "meanings": [ + "the killing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaśaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "fame" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śriyam", + "meanings": [ + "opulence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hanti", + "meanings": [ + "will vanquish" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anukālam", + "meanings": [ + "forever" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āyuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and the duration of life." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Kaṁsa thought: What is my duty now?

This is the difference between a devotee and a nondevotee. A nondevotee or atheist also cultivates God consciousness—by trying to avoid God in everything. For example, so-called scientists who want to create life by a combination of chemicals regard the external, material elements as supreme. Such scientists do not like the idea that life is part and parcel of the Supreme Lord.

If one can understand the position of the living entity as a separated portion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, by studying the nature of the living entity one can understand the nature of the Supreme Godhead, since the living entity is a fragmental sample of the Godhead.

When a devotee is in distress, he sees that the Lord has appeared as distress just to relieve or purify the devotee from the contamination of the material world. While one is within this material world, one is in various conditions, and therefore a devotee sees a condition of distress as but another feature of the Lord. Tat te'nukampāṁ susamīkṣamāṇaḥ (Bhāg. 10.14.8). A devotee, therefore, regards distress as a great favor of the Lord because he understands that he is being cleansed of contamination. Teṣām ahaṁ samuddhartā mṛtyu-saṁsāra-sāgarāt (Bg. 12.7). The appearance of distress is a negative process intended to give the devotee relief from this material world, which is called mṛtyu-saṁsāra, or the constant repetition of birth and death. To save a surrendered soul from repeated birth and death, the Lord purifies him of contamination by offering him a little distress. This cannot be understood by a nondevotee, but a devotee can see this because he is vipaścit, or learned. A nondevotee, therefore, is perturbed in distress, but a devotee welcomes distress as another feature of the Lord. Sarvaṁ khalv idaṁ brahma.

After wandering throughout the universe, a fortunate person within this material world seeks shelter of such a guru, or ācārya, who trains the devotee in the suitable ways to render service according to the circumstances so that the Supreme Personality of Godhead will accept the service. This makes it easier for the candidate to reach the ultimate destination. The ācārya's duty, therefore, is to find the means by which devotees may render service according to references from śāstra.

In our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, this same path is being prescribed and followed. Thus the devotees have been advised to refrain from four sinful activities—illicit sex, intoxication, meat-eating and gambling—and to chant sixteen rounds a day. These are bona fide instructions.

I do not want any material benediction.\" (Hari-bhakti-sudhodaya 7.28) This is the perfection of life. Yaṁ labdhvā cāparaṁ lābhaṁ manyate nādhikaṁ tataḥ (Bg. 6.22).

Those who are attached to the Supreme Personality of Godhead in love always see the Lord's lotus eyes and lotus feet, whereas others cannot see the Lord's beauty and are therefore classified as anādṛta-yuṣmad-aṅghrayaḥ, or neglectful of the Lord's personal form. Those who neglect the Lord's form are surely failures on every path in life, but if one develops even a little love for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one is liberated without difficulty (svalpam apy asya dharmasya trāyate mahato bhayāt). Therefore the Supreme Personality of Godhead recommends in Bhagavad-gītā (9.34), man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru: \"Simply think of Me, become My devotee, worship Me and offer some slight homage to Me.\" Simply by this process, one is guaranteed to return home, back to Godhead, and thus attain the highest perfection.

Thus a case that was expected to continue for years was settled in a day because of the protection of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who has promised in Bhagavad-gītā (9.31), kaunteya pratijānīhi na me bhaktaḥ praṇaśyati: \"O son of Kuntī, declare it boldly that My devotee never perishes.\" In history there are many instances of devotees like Citraketu, Indradyumna and Mahārāja Bharata who circumstantially fell down but were still protected. Mahārāja Bharata, for example, because of his attachment to a deer, thought of the deer at the time of death, and therefore in his next life he became a deer (yaṁ yaṁ vāpi smaran bhāvaṁ tyajaty ante kalevaram). Because of protection by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, however, the deer remembered his relationship with the Lord and next took birth in a good brahminical family and performed devotional service (śucīnāṁ śrīmatāṁ gehe yoga-bhraṣṭo 'bhijāyate). Similarly, Citraketu fell down and became a demon, Vṛtrāsura, but he too was protected. Thus even if one falls down from the path of bhakti-yoga, one is ultimately saved.

Everyone imagines the form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead according to his mode of material nature. In the Brahma-saṁhitā it is said that the Lord is the oldest person. Therefore a section of religionists imagine that God must be very old, and therefore they depict a form of the Lord like a very old man. But in the same Brahma-saṁhitā, that is contradicted; although He is the oldest of all living entities, He has His eternal form as a fresh youth. The exact words used in this connection in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are vijñānam ajñāna-bhidāpamārjanam. Vijñāna means transcendental knowledge of the Supreme Personality; vijñāna is also experienced knowledge. Transcendental knowledge has to be accepted by the descending process of disciplic succession as Brahmā presents the knowledge of Kṛṣṇa in the Brahma-saṁhitā. Brahma-saṁhitā is vijñāna as realized by Brahmā's transcendental experience, and in that way he presented the form and the pastimes of Kṛṣṇa in the transcendental abode. Ajñāna-bhidā means \"that which can match all kinds of speculation.\" In ignorance, people are imagining the form of the Lord; sometimes He has no form and sometimes He has form, according to their different imaginations. But the presentation of Kṛṣṇa in the Brahma-saṁhitā is vijñāna—scientific, experienced knowledge given by Lord Brahmā and accepted by Lord Caitanya. There is no doubt about it. Śrī Kṛṣṇa's form, Śrī Kṛṣṇa's flute, Kṛṣṇa's color—everything is reality. Here it is said that this vijñānam is always defeating all kinds of speculative knowledge. \"Therefore,\" the demigods prayed, \"without Your appearing as Kṛṣṇa, as You are, neither ajñāna-bhidā (the nescience of speculative knowledge) nor vijñānam would be realized. Ajñāna-bhidāpamārjanam—by Your appearance the speculative knowledge of ignorance will be vanquished, and the real, experienced knowledge of authorities like Lord Brahmā will be established. Men influenced by the three modes of material nature imagine their own God according to the modes of material nature. In this way God is presented in various ways, but Your appearance will establish what the real form of God is.\"", + "The highest blunder committed by the impersonalist is to think that when the incarnation of God comes, He accepts a form of matter in the mode of goodness. Actually the form of Kṛṣṇa or Nārāyaṇa is transcendental to any material idea. Even the greatest impersonalist, Śaṅkarācārya, has admitted, nārāyaṇaḥ paro 'vyaktāt: the material creation is caused by the avyakta, the impersonal manifestation of matter or the nonphenomenal total reservoir of matter, and Kṛṣṇa is transcendental to that material conception. This is expressed in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam as śuddha-sattva, or transcendental. The Lord does not belong to the material mode of goodness, for He is above the position of material goodness. He belongs to the transcendental, eternal status of bliss and knowledge.", + "\"Dear Lord,\" the demigods prayed, \"when You appear in Your different incarnations, You take different names and forms according to different situations. Lord Kṛṣṇa is Your name because You are all-attractive; You are called Śyāmasundara because of Your transcendental beauty. Śyāma means blackish, yet they say that You are more beautiful than thousands of cupids. Kandarpa-koṭi-kamanīya. Although You appear in a color which is compared to that of a blackish cloud, You are the transcendental Absolute, and therefore Your beauty is many, many times more attractive than the delicate body of Cupid. Sometimes You are called Giridhārī because You lifted the hill known as Govardhana. You are sometimes called Nanda-nandana or Vāsudeva or Devakī-nandana because You appear as the son of Mahārāja Nanda or Devakī or Vasudeva. Impersonalists think that Your many names or forms are according to a particular type of work and quality because they accept You from the position of a material observer.", + "\"Our dear Lord, the way of understanding is not to study Your absolute nature, form and activities by mental speculation. One must engage himself in devotional service; then one can understand Your absolute nature and Your transcendental form, name and quality. Actually, only a person who has a little taste for the service of Your lotus feet can understand Your transcendental nature or form and quality. Others may go on speculating for millions of years, but it is not possible for them to understand even a single part of Your actual position.\" In other words, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, cannot be understood by the nondevotees because there is a curtain of yogamāyā which covers Kṛṣṇa's actual features. As confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (7.25), nāhaṁ prakāśaḥ sarvasya. The Lord says, \"I am not exposed to anyone and everyone.\" When Kṛṣṇa came, He was actually present on the battlefield of Kurukṣetra, and everyone saw Him.

This is due to a lack of transcendental knowledge and a failure to awaken Kṛṣṇa consciousness. One should have the common sense to ask why, if Kṛṣṇa or Rāma were fictitious, stalwart scholars like Śrīdhara Svāmī, Rūpa Gosvāmī, Sanātana Gosvāmī, Vīrarāghava, Vijayadhvaja, Vallabhācārya and many other recognized ācāryas would have spent so much time to write about Kṛṣṇa in notes and commentaries on Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/36.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/36.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..eeae1ee7 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/36.json @@ -0,0 +1,141 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 36, + "reference": "SB 10.2.36", + "devanagari": "न नामरूपे गुणजन्मकर्मभिर्निरूपितव्ये तव तस्य साक्षिणः\nमनोवचोभ्याम् अनुमेयवर्त्मनो देव क्रियायां प्रतियन्त्य् अथापि हि", + "transliteration": "na nāma-rūpe guṇa-janma-karmabhir\nnirūpitavye tava tasya sākṣiṇaḥ\nmano-vacobhyām anumeya-vartmano\ndeva kriyāyāṁ pratiyanty athāpi hi", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāma-rūpe", + "meanings": [ + "the name and form" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guṇa", + "meanings": [ + "with attributes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma", + "meanings": [ + "appearance" + ] + }, + { + "word": "karmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "activities or pastimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nirūpitavye", + "meanings": [ + "are not able to be ascertained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tava", + "meanings": [ + "Your" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tasya", + "meanings": [ + "of Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sākṣiṇaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who is the direct observer" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vacobhyām", + "meanings": [ + "words" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anumeya", + "meanings": [ + "hypothesis" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vartmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the path" + ] + }, + { + "word": "deva", + "meanings": [ + "O Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kriyāyām", + "meanings": [ + "in devotional activities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pratiyanti", + "meanings": [ + "they realize" + ] + }, + { + "word": "atha api", + "meanings": [ + "still" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hi", + "meanings": [ + "indeed (You can be realized by the devotees)." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O Lord, Your transcendental name and form are not ascertained by those who merely speculate on the path of imagination.

Only when one becomes spiritually saturated by transcendental service to the Lord are the transcendental name, form, quality and pastimes of the Lord revealed to him.\" Since Kṛṣṇa and His transcendental name, form and activities are all of a transcendental nature, ordinary persons or those who are only slightly advanced cannot understand them. Even big scholars who are nondevotees think that Kṛṣṇa is fictitious. Yet although so-called scholars and commentators do not believe that Kṛṣṇa was factually a historical person whose presence on the Battlefield of Kurukṣetra is recorded in the history of Mahābhārata, they feel compelled to write commentaries on Bhagavad-gītā and other historical records. Sevonmukhe hi jihvādau svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ: Kṛṣṇa's transcendental name, form, attributes and activities can be revealed only when one engages in His service in full consciousness. This confirms Kṛṣṇa's own words in Bhagavad-gītā (18.55):", + "bhaktyā mām abhijānāti

In the material world there is a difference between form and name. The mango fruit is different from the name of the mango. One cannot taste the mango fruit simply by chanting, \"Mango, mango, mango.\" But the devotee who knows that there is no difference between the name and the form of the Lord chants Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, and realizes that he is always in Kṛṣṇa's company.", + "For persons who are not very advanced in absolute knowledge of the Supreme, Lord Kṛṣṇa exhibits His transcendental pastimes. They can simply think of the pastimes of the Lord and get the full benefit. Since there is no difference between the transcendental name and form of the Lord, there is no difference between the transcendental pastimes and the form of the Lord. For those who are less intelligent (like women, laborers or the mercantile class), the great sage Vyāsadeva wrote Mahābhārata. In the Mahābhārata, Kṛṣṇa is present in His different activities. Mahābhārata is history, and simply by studying, hearing, and memorizing the transcendental activities of Kṛṣṇa, the less intelligent can also gradually rise to the standard of pure devotees.", + "The pure devotees, who are always absorbed in the thought of the transcendental lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa and who are always engaged in devotional service in full Kṛṣṇa consciousness, are never to be considered to be in the material world. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī has explained that those who are always engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness by body, mind and activities are to be considered liberated even within this body. This is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā: those who are engaged in the devotional service of the Lord have already transcended the material position.", + "Kṛṣṇa appears in order to give a chance to both the devotees and the nondevotees for realization of the ultimate goal of life. The devotees get the direct chance to see Him and worship Him. Those who are not on that platform get the chance to become acquainted with His activities and thus become elevated to the same position.", + "The Brahma-saṁhitā (5.38) says:", + "premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena

His eyes are like lotus flowers, He is decorated with peacock plumes, and His bodily color resembles the color of a fresh black cloud, although His bodily features are more beautiful than millions of Cupids.\" This beauty of the Supreme Lord can be seen by devotees who are in love with Him, devotees whose eyes are anointed with love of Godhead (premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena).", + "The Lord is also known as Giridhārī or Girivara-dhārī. Because Kṛṣṇa, for the sake of His devotees, lifted Govardhana Hill, the devotees appreciate the Lord's inconceivable strength; but nondevotees, in spite of directly perceiving the Lord's inconceivable strength and power, regard the Lord's activities as fictitious. This is the difference between a devotee and a nondevotee. Nondevotees cannot give any nomenclature for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, yet the Lord is known as Śyāmasundara and Giridhārī. Similarly, the Lord is known as Devakī-nandana and Yaśodā-nandana because He accepted the role of son for mother Devakī and Mother Yaśodā, and He is known as Gopāla because He enjoyed the sport of maintaining the cows and calves. Therefore, although He has no mundane name, He is addressed by devotees as Devakī-nandana, Yaśodā-nandana, Gopāla and Śyāmasundara. These are all transcendental names that only devotees can appreciate and nondevotees cannot.", + "The history of Kṛṣṇa the person has been openly seen by everyone, yet only those who are in love with the Supreme Personality of Godhead can appreciate this history, whereas nondevotees, who have not developed their loving qualities, think that the activities, form and attributes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are fictitious. Therefore this verse explains, na nāma-rūpe guṇa janma-karmabhir nirūpitavye tava tasya sākṣiṇaḥ. In this connection, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura has given the example that persons suffering from jaundice cannot taste the sweetness of sugar candy, although everyone knows that sugar candy is sweet. Similarly, because of the material disease, nondevotees cannot understand the transcendental name, form, attributes and activities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although they actually see the Lord's activities, either through authority or through history. The Purāṇas are old, authentic histories, but nondevotees cannot understand them, especially Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, which is the essence of Vedic knowledge. Nondevotees cannot understand even the preliminary study of transcendental knowledge, Bhagavad-gītā. They simply speculate and present commentaries with absurd distortions. In conclusion, unless one elevates himself to the transcendental platform by practicing bhakti-yoga, one cannot understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His name, form, attributes or activities. But if by chance, by the association of devotees, one can actually understand the Lord and His features, one immediately becomes a liberated person. As the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9):", + "janma karma ca me divyam
evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ

naiti mām eti so 'rjuna", + "\"One who knows the transcendental nature of My appearance and activities does not, upon leaving the body, take his birth again in this material world, but attains My eternal abode, O Arjuna.\"", + "Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī has therefore said that by affection and love for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, devotees can express their mind to Him with their words. Others, however, cannot do this, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (bhaktyā mām abhijānāti yāvān yaś cāsmi tattvataḥ)." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/37.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/37.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..09111fb8 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/37.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 37, + "reference": "SB 10.2.37", + "devanagari": "शृण्वन्गृणन्संस्मरयंश्च चिन्तयन्नामानि रूपाणि च मंगलानि ते\nक्रियासु यस्त्वच्चरणारविन्दयोर् आविष्टचेता न भवाय कल्पते", + "transliteration": "śṛṇvan gṛṇan saṁsmarayaṁś ca cintayan\nnāmāni rūpāṇi ca maṅgalāni te\nkriyāsu yas tvac-caraṇāravindayor\nāviṣṭa-cetā na bhavāya kalpate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śṛṇvan", + "meanings": [ + "constantly hearing about the Lord (śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛṇan", + "meanings": [ + "chanting or reciting (the holy name of the Lord and His activities)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saṁsmarayan", + "meanings": [ + "remembering (constantly thinking of the Lord's lotus feet and His form)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cintayan", + "meanings": [ + "contemplating (the transcendental activities of the Lord)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nāmāni", + "meanings": [ + "His transcendental names" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rūpāṇi", + "meanings": [ + "His transcendental forms" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṅgalāni", + "meanings": [ + "which are all transcendental and therefore auspicious" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "of Your Lordship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kriyāsu", + "meanings": [ + "in being engaged in the devotional service" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he who" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvat-caraṇa-aravindayoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "at Your lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āviṣṭa-cetāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the devotee who is completely absorbed (in such activities)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "na", + "meanings": [ + "not" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhavāya", + "meanings": [ + "for the material platform" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kalpate", + "meanings": [ + "is fit." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Even while engaged in various activities, devotees whose minds are completely absorbed at Your lotus feet, and who constantly hear, chant, contemplate and cause others to remember Your transcendental names and forms, are always on the transcendental platform, and thus they can understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "purport": [ + "How bhakti-yoga can be practiced is explained in this verse.

Even though such a devotee is in a material body, he has nothing to do with this body, for he is transcendentally situated. Nārāyaṇa-parāḥ sarve na kutaścana bibhyati: because a devotee is engaged in transcendental activities, he is not afraid of being materially embodied. (Bhāg. 6.17.28) Illustrating this liberated position, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu prayed, mama janmani janmanīśvare bhavatād bhaktir ahaitukī tvayi: \"All I want is Your causeless devotional service in My life, birth after birth.\" (Śikṣāṣṭaka 4) Even if a devotee, by the supreme will of the Lord, takes birth in this material world, he continues his devotional service. When King Bharata made a mistake and in his next life became a deer, his devotional service did not stop, although some slight chastisement was given to him because of his negligence. Nārada Muni says that even if one falls from the platform of devotional service, he is not lost, whereas nondevotees are lost entirely because they are not engaged in service.

There is no need for Him to come as an incarnation, since He is not forced to do anything like ordinary living entities. The living entities come to this material world in the spirit of enjoyment, but because they want to enjoy without Kṛṣṇa (kṛṣṇa-bahirmukha haiyā bhoga-vāñchā kare), they suffer birth, death, old age and disease under the control of the illusory energy. When the Supreme Personality of Godhead appears, however, no such causes are involved; His descent is an act of His pleasure potency. We should always remember this distinction between the Lord and the ordinary living entity and not uselessly argue that the Lord cannot come. There are philosophers who do not believe in the Lord's incarnation and who ask, \"Why should the Supreme Lord come?\" But the answer is, \"Why should He not come? Why should He be controlled by the desire of the living entity?\" The Lord is free to do whatever He likes. Therefore this verse says, vinā vinodaṁ bata tarkayāmahe. It is only for His pleasure that He comes although He does not need to come.", + "When the living entities come to this world for material enjoyment, they are entangled in karma and karma-phala by the Lord's illusory energy. But if one seeks shelter at the Lord's lotus feet, one is again situated in his original, liberated state. As stated here, kṛtā yatas tvayy abhayāśrayātmani: one who seeks shelter at the lotus feet of the Lord is always fearless. Because we are dependent on the Supreme Personality of Godhead, we should give up the idea that without Kṛṣṇa we can enjoy freedom in this material world. This idea is the reason we have become entangled. Now it is our duty to seek shelter again at the Lord's lotus feet. This shelter is described as abhaya, or fearless. Since Kṛṣṇa is not subject to birth, death, old age or disease, and since we are part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa, we also are not subject to birth, death, old age and disease, but we have become subject to these illusory problems because of our forgetfulness of Kṛṣṇa and our position as His eternal servants (jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa'). Therefore, if we practice devotional service by always thinking of the Lord, always glorifying Him and always chanting about Him, as described in text 37 (śṛṇvan gṛṇan saṁsmarayaṁś ca cintayan), we will be reinstated in our original, constitutional position and thus be saved. The demigods, therefore, encouraged Devakī not to fear Kaṁsa, but to think of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who was already within her womb." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/40.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/40.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9d433945 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/02/verses/40.json @@ -0,0 +1,147 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 2, + "verse": 40, + "reference": "SB 10.2.40", + "devanagari": "मत्स्याश्वकच्छपनृसिंहवराहहंस राजन्यविप्रविबुधेषु कृतावतारः\nत्वं पासि नस्त्रिभुवनं च यथाधुनेश भारं भुवो हर यदूत्तम वन्दनं ते", + "transliteration": "matsyāśva-kacchapa-nṛsiṁha-varāha-haṁsa-\nrājanya-vipra-vibudheṣu kṛtāvatāraḥ\ntvaṁ pāsi nas tri-bhuvanaṁ ca yathādhuneśa\nbhāraṁ bhuvo hara yadūttama vandanaṁ te", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "matsya", + "meanings": [ + "the fish incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aśva", + "meanings": [ + "the horse incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kacchapa", + "meanings": [ + "the tortoise incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nṛsiṁha", + "meanings": [ + "the Narasiṁha incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varāha", + "meanings": [ + "the Varāha incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "haṁsa", + "meanings": [ + "the swan incarnation" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rājanya", + "meanings": [ + "incarnations as Lord Rāmacandra and other kṣatriyas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vipra", + "meanings": [ + "incarnations as brāhmaṇas like Vāmanadeva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vibudheṣu", + "meanings": [ + "among the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛta-avatāraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "appeared as incarnations" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvam", + "meanings": [ + "Your Lordship" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāsi", + "meanings": [ + "please save" + ] + }, + { + "word": "naḥ", + "meanings": [ + "us" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tri-bhuvanam ca", + "meanings": [ + "and the three worlds" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yathā", + "meanings": [ + "as well as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adhunā", + "meanings": [ + "now" + ] + }, + { + "word": "īśa", + "meanings": [ + "O Supreme Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhāram", + "meanings": [ + "burden" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bhuvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of the earth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hara", + "meanings": [ + "please diminish" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yadu-uttama", + "meanings": [ + "O Lord Kṛṣṇa, best of the Yadus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vandanam te", + "meanings": [ + "we offer our prayers unto You." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "O supreme controller, Your Lordship previously accepted incarnations as a fish, a horse, a tortoise, Narasiṁhadeva, a boar, a swan, Lord Rāmacandra, Paraśurāma and, among the demigods, Vāmanadeva, to protect the entire world by Your mercy.

time for the appearance of the Lord, the entire universe was surcharged with all the qualities of goodness, beauty and peace. The constellation Rohiṇī appeared, as did stars like Aśvinī. The sun, the moon and the other stars and planets were very peaceful. All directions appeared extremely pleasing, and the beautiful stars twinkled in the cloudless sky. Decorated with towns, villages, mines and pasturing grounds, the earth seemed all-auspicious. The rivers flowed with clear water, and the lakes and vast reservoirs, full of lilies and lotuses, were extraordinarily beautiful. In the trees and green plants, full of flowers and leaves, pleasing to the eyes, birds like cuckoos and swarms of bees began chanting with sweet voices for the sake of the demigods. A pure breeze began to blow, pleasing the sense of touch and bearing the aroma of flowers, and when the brāhmaṇas engaging in ritualistic ceremonies ignited their fires according to Vedic principles, the fires burned steadily, undisturbed by the breeze. Thus when the birthless Lord Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, was about to appear, the saints and brāhmaṇas, who had always been disturbed by demons like Kaṁsa and his men, felt peace within the core of their hearts, and kettledrums simultaneously vibrated from the upper planetary system.", + "purport": [ + "As stated in the Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord says that His appearance, birth, and activities are all transcendental and that one who factually understands them is immediately eligible to be transferred to the spiritual world.

The Lord's appearance is explained in the previous chapter: He appears out of His own sweet pleasure.", + "When the time was mature for the appearance of the Lord, the constellations became very auspicious. The astrological influence of the constellation known as Rohiṇī was also predominant because this constellation is considered very auspicious. Rohiṇī is under the direct supervision of Brahmā, who is born of Viṣṇu, and it appears at the birth of Lord Viṣṇu, who in fact is birthless. According to the astrological conclusion, besides the proper situation of the stars, there are auspicious and inauspicious moments due to the different situations of the different planetary systems. At the time of Kṛṣṇa's birth, the planetary systems were automatically adjusted so that everything became auspicious.", + "At that time, in all directions, east, west, south, north, everywhere, there was an atmosphere of peace and prosperity. Auspicious stars were visible in the sky, and on the surface in all towns and villages or pasturing grounds and within the mind of everyone there were signs of good fortune. The rivers were flowing full of water, and the lakes were beautifully decorated with lotus flowers. The forests were full with beautiful birds and peacocks. All the birds within the forests began to sing with sweet voices, and the peacocks began to dance with their consorts. The wind blew very pleasantly, carrying the aroma of different flowers, and the sensation of bodily touch was very pleasing. At home, the brāhmaṇas, who were accustomed to offer sacrifices in the fire, found their homes very pleasant for offerings. Because of disturbances created by the demoniac kings, the sacrificial fire had been almost stopped in the houses of brāhmaṇas, but now they could find the opportunity to start the fire peacefully. Being forbidden to offer sacrifices, the brāhmaṇas were very distressed in mind, intelligence and activities. But just on the point of Kṛṣṇa's appearance, automatically their minds became full of joy because they could hear loud vibrations in the sky of transcendental sounds proclaiming the appearance of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "On the occasion of Lord Kṛṣṇa's birth, seasonal changes took place throughout the entire universe. Kṛṣṇa was born during the month of September, yet it appeared like springtime. The atmosphere, however, was very cool, although not chilly, and the rivers and reservoirs appeared just as they would in śarat, the fall. Lotuses and lilies blossom during the day, but although Kṛṣṇa appeared at twelve o'clock midnight, the lilies and lotuses were in bloom, and thus the wind blowing at that time was full of fragrance.

Kṛṣṇa's father, His mother, His friends the cowherd boys, and the cows are all expansions of Kṛṣṇa, as will be explained in the brahma-vimohana-līlā. When Brahmā took away Kṛṣṇa's associates to test the supremacy of Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Lord expanded Himself again in the forms of the many cowherd boys and calves, all of whom, as Brahmā saw, were viṣṇu-mūrtis. Devakī is also an expansion of Kṛṣṇa, and therefore this verse says, devakyāṁ deva-rūpiṇyāṁ viṣṇuḥ sarva-guhā-śayaḥ.", + "At the time for the Lord's appearance, the great sages and the demigods, being pleased, began to shower flowers. At the seashore, there was the sound of mild waves, and above the sea there were clouds in the sky which began to thunder very pleasingly.", + "When things were adjusted like this, Lord Viṣṇu, who is residing within the heart of every living entity, appeared in the darkness of night as the Supreme Personality of Godhead before Devakī, who appeared as one of the demigoddesses. The appearance of Lord Viṣṇu at that time could be compared to the rising of the full moon in the sky on the eastern horizon. The objection may be raised that since Lord Kṛṣṇa appeared on the eighth day of the waning moon, there could be no rising of the full moon. In answer to this it may be said that Lord Kṛṣṇa appeared in the dynasty which is in the hierarchy of the moon; therefore, although the moon was incomplete on that night, because of the Lord's appearance in the dynasty wherein the moon is himself the original person, the moon was in an overjoyous condition, so by the grace of Kṛṣṇa he could appear as a full moon. To welcome the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the waning moon became a full moon in jubilation.", + "Instead of deva-rūpiṇyām, some texts of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam clearly say viṣṇu-rūpiṇyām. In either case, the meaning is that Devakī has the same spiritual form as the Lord. The Lord is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, and Devakī is also sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha. Therefore no one can find any fault in the way the Supreme Personality of Godhead, sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha, appeared from the womb of Devakī.", + "Those who are not in full knowledge that the appearance and disappearance of the Lord are transcendental (janma karma ca me divyam) are sometimes surprised that the Supreme Personality of Godhead can take birth like an ordinary child. Actually, however, the Lord's birth is never ordinary. The Supreme Personality of Godhead is already situated within the core of everyone's heart as antaryāmī, the Supersoul. Thus because He was present in full potency in Devakī's heart, He was also able to appear outside her body.", + "One of the twelve great personalities is Bhīṣmadeva (svayambhūr nāradaḥ śambhuḥ kumāraḥ kapilo manuḥ prahlāda, janako bhīṣmaḥ). In Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (1.9.42), Bhīṣma, a great authority to be followed by devotees, says that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is situated in the core of everyone's heart, just as the sun may be on everyone's head. Yet although the sun may be on the heads of millions and millions of people, this does not mean that the sun is variously situated. Similarly, because the Supreme Personality of Godhead has inconceivable potencies, He can be within everyone's heart and yet not be situated variously. Ekatvam anupaśyataḥ (Īśopaniṣad 7). The Lord is one, but He can appear in everyone's heart by His inconceivable potency. Thus although the Lord was within the heart of Devakī, He appeared as her child. According to the Viṣṇu Purāṇa, therefore, as quoted in the Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī, the Lord appeared like the sun (anugrahāsaya). The Brahma-saṁhitā (5.35) confirms that the Lord is situated even within the atom (aṇḍāntara-stha-paramāṇu-cayāntara-stham). He is situated in Mathurā, in Vaikuṇṭha and in the core of the heart. Therefore one should clearly understand that He did not live like an ordinary child in the heart or the womb of Devakī. Nor did He appear like an ordinary human child, although He seemed to do so in order to bewilder asuras like Kaṁsa. The asuras wrongly think that Kṛṣṇa took birth like an ordinary child and passed away from this world like an ordinary man. Such asuric conceptions are rejected by persons in knowledge of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Ajo 'pi sann avyayātmā bhūtānām īśvaro 'pi san (Bg. 4.6). As stated in Bhagavad-gītā, the Lord is aja, unborn, and He is the supreme controller of everything. Nonetheless, He appeared as the child of Devakī. This verse describes the inconceivable potency of the Lord, who appeared like the full moon.

The first wonder was that the Lord was not afraid to appear within the prison house of Kaṁsa, where Vasudeva and Devakī were interned. Second, although the Lord, the Supreme Transcendence, is all-pervading, He had appeared from the womb of Devakī. The third point of wonder, therefore, was that a child could take birth from the womb so nicely decorated. Fourth, the Supreme Personality of Godhead was Vasudeva's worshipable Deity yet had taken birth as his son. For all these reasons, Vasudeva was transcendentally jubilant, and he wanted to perform a festival, as kṣatriyas do to celebrate the birth of a child, but because of his imprisonment he was unable to do it externally, and therefore he performed the festival within his mind. This was just as good. If one cannot externally serve the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one can serve the Lord within one's mind, since the activities of the mind are as good as those of the other senses. This is called the nondual or absolute situation (advaya jñāna). People generally perform ritualistic ceremonies for the birth of a child.

In the above-mentioned verse from Bhagavad-gītā, therefore, it is said that although He is all-pervading, everywhere present, He is not conceivable by the material senses. But actually, although we cannot see Him, everything is resting in Him. As discussed in the Seventh Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā, the entire material cosmic manifestation is only a combination of His two different energies, the superior, spiritual energy and the inferior, material energy. Just as the sunshine is spread all over the universe, the energy of the Lord is spread all over the creation, and everything is resting in that energy.", + "Yet one should not conclude that because He is spread all over He has lost His personal existence. To refute such arguments, the Lord says, \"I am everywhere, and everything is in Me, but still I am aloof.\" For example, a king heads a government which is but the manifestation of the king's energy; the different governmental departments are nothing but the energies of the king, and each department is resting on the king's power. But still one cannot expect the king to be present in every department personally. That is a crude example. Similarly, all the manifestations that we see, and everything that exists, both in this material world and in the spiritual world, are resting on the energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The creation takes place by the diffusion of His different energies, and, as stated in the Bhagavad-gītā, He is everywhere present by His personal representation, the diffusion of His different energies.", + "One may argue that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who creates the whole cosmic manifestation simply by His glance, cannot come within the womb of Devakī, the wife of Vasudeva. To eradicate this argument, Vasudeva said, \"My dear Lord, it is not very wonderful that You appeared within the womb of Devakī, for the creation was also made in that way. You were lying in the Causal Ocean as Mahā-viṣṇu, and by Your breathing, innumerable universes came into existence. Then You entered into each of the universes as Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Then again You expanded Yourself as Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu and entered into the heart of all living entities and entered even within the atoms. Therefore Your entrance into the womb of Devakī is understandable in the same way. You appear to have entered, but You are simultaneously all-pervading. We can understand Your entrance and nonentrance from material examples. The total material energy remains intact even after being divided into sixteen elements. The material body is nothing but a combination of the five gross elements—namely earth, water, fire, air and ether. Whenever there is a material body, it appears that such elements are newly created, but actually the elements are always existing outside of the body. Similarly, although You appear as a child in the womb of Devakī, You are also existing outside. You are always in Your abode, but still You can simultaneously expand Yourself into millions of forms.", + "\"One has to understand Your appearance with great intelligence because the material energy is also emanating from You. You are the original source of the material energy, just as the sun is the source of the sunshine. The sunshine cannot cover the sun globe, nor can the material energy—being an emanation from You—cover You. You appear to be in the three modes of material energy, but actually the three modes of material energy cannot cover You. This is understood by the highly intellectual philosophers. In other words, although You appear to be within the material energy, You are never covered by it.\"", + "We hear from the Vedic version that the Supreme Brahman exhibits His effulgence and therefore everything is illuminated.

It is further stated in the Bhagavad-gītā that the Lord is the support of the Brahman effulgence. Originally He is the root cause of everything.

Yet ultimately the Lord does not need to do anything, and therefore He is nirvikāra, changeless. Because everything is done under His direction, He is called sṛṣṭi-kartā, the master of creation. Similarly, He is the master of annihilation. When a master sits in one place while his servants work in different duties, whatever the servants are doing is ultimately an activity of the master, although he is doing nothing (na tasya kāryaṁ karaṇaṁ ca vidyate).

Illustrating the logic called bakāndha-nyāya, the duck is such a fool that it runs after the testicles of a bull, thinking them to be a hanging fish that can be taken when it drops. Thus the duck is always in darkness. Vyāsadeva, however, the compiler of the Vedic literature, is blackish, but this does not mean that he is in tamo-guṇa; rather, he is in the highest position of sattva-guṇa, beyond the material modes of nature. Sometimes these colors (śukla-raktas tathā pītaḥ) are used to designate the brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras. Lord Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu is celebrated as possessing a blackish color, Lord Śiva is whitish, and Lord Brahmā is reddish, but according to Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī in the Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī-ṭīkā, this exhibition of colors is not what is referred to here.", + "The real understanding of śukla, rakta and kṛṣṇa is as follows.

You are original because all Your forms as incarnations are outside of this material creation. Your form was existing before this cosmic manifestation was created. Your forms are eternal and all-pervading. They are self-effulgent, changeless and uncontaminated by the material qualities. Such eternal forms are ever-cognizant and full of bliss; they are situated in transcendental goodness and are always engaged in different pastimes.

As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (8.17), sahasra-yuga-paryantam ahar yad brahmaṇo viduḥ: one day of Brahmā equals 1,000 yugas, and each yuga consists of 4,300,000 years. Similarly, Brahmā has a night of 1,000 times 4,300,000 years. In this way, we may calculate Brahmā's month and year, but even Brahmā, who lives for millions and millions of years (dvi-parārdha-kāla), also must die. According to Vedic śāstra, the inhabitants of the higher planetary systems live for 10,000 years, and just as Brahmā's day is calculated to equal 4,300,000,000 of our years, one day in the higher planetary systems equals six of our months. Karmīs, therefore, try for promotion to the higher planetary systems, but this cannot free them from death. In this material world, everyone from Brahmā to the insignificant ant must die. Therefore this world is called martya-loka. As Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (8.16), ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino'rjuna: as long as one is within this material world, either on Brahmaloka or on any other loka within this universe, one must undergo the kāla-cakra of one life after another (bhūtvā bhūtvā pralīyate). But if one returns to the Supreme Personality of Godhead (yad gatvā na nivartante), one need not reenter the limits of time. Therefore, devotees who have taken shelter of the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord can sleep very peacefully with this assurance from the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Then one is assured of eternal life, with no fear of death.

If our so-called scientists are going to the moon, why should they come back here? We must conclude without a doubt that they have never gone to the moon. To go to the moon, one must have the qualification of pious activities. Then one may go there and live.

If Kaṁsa were to come, she thought, upon seeing the Viṣṇu form he would immediately kill the child, but if he saw a human child, he might reconsider. Devakī was afraid of Ugrasena-ātmaja; that is, she was afraid not of Ugrasena and his men, but of the son of Ugrasena.

My Lord Madhusūdana, Kaṁsa may know that You are already born. Therefore I request You to conceal this four-armed form of Your Lordship, which holds the four symbols of Viṣṇu—namely the conchshell, the disc, the club and the lotus flower.

According to Vedic principles, before creating progeny one must fully control the senses. This control takes place through the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra.

As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (13.9), janma-mṛtyu jarā-vyādhi-duḥkha-doṣānudarśanam: birth, death, old age and disease are certainly the primary distresses of the material world. People are trying to control birth, but they are not able to control death; and if one cannot control death, one cannot control birth either. In other words, artificially controlling birth is not any more feasible than artificially controlling death.", + "According to Vedic civilization, procreation should not be contrary to religious principles, and then the birthrate will be controlled.

People should be educated in how to give birth to good children through saṁskāras, beginning with the garbhādhāna-saṁskāra; birth should not be controlled by artificial means, for this will lead to a civilization of animals. If one follows religious principles, he automatically practices birth control because if one is spiritually educated he knows that the after-effects of sex are various types of misery (bahu-duḥkha-bhāja). One who is spiritually advanced does not indulge in uncontrolled sex. Therefore, instead of being forced to refrain from sex or refrain from giving birth to many children, people should be spiritually educated, and then birth control will automatically follow.", + "If one is determined to make spiritual advancement, he will not beget a child unless able to make that child a devotee. As stated in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (5.5.18), pitā na sa syāt: one should not become a father unless one is able to protect his child from mṛtyu, the path of birth and death. But where is there education about this? A responsible father never begets children like cats and dogs. Instead of being encouraged to adopt artificial means of birth control, people should be educated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness because only then will they understand their responsibility to their children. If one can beget children who will be devotees and be taught to turn aside from the path of birth and death (mṛtyu-saṁsāra-vartmani), there is no need of birth control. Rather, one should be encouraged to beget children. Artificial means of birth control have no value. Whether one begets children or does not, a population of men who are like cats and dogs will never make human society happy.

Instead of bringing the Lord here for some material purpose, to have a son or whatever else, if we go back home, back to Godhead, our real relationship with the Lord is revealed, and we eternally engage in our eternal relationship.

On the other hand, the Supreme Lord was also anxious, thinking that if He appeared as an ordinary child, she would not believe that Lord Viṣṇu had appeared. Such are the dealings between devotees and the Lord. The Lord deals with His devotees exactly like a human being, but this does not mean that the Lord is one of the human beings, for this is the conclusion of nondevotees (avajānanti māṁ mūḍhā mānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam). Devotees know the Supreme Personality of Godhead under any circumstances. This is the difference between a devotee and a nondevotee. The Lord says, man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru: \"Engage your mind always in thinking of Me, become My devotee, offer obeisances and worship Me.\" A nondevotee cannot believe that simply by thinking of one person, one can achieve liberation from this material world and go back home, back to Godhead. But this is a fact. The Lord comes as a human being, and if one becomes attached to the Lord on the platform of loving service, one's promotion to the transcendental world is assured." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/03/verses/45.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/03/verses/45.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..6faa6ae0 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/03/verses/45.json @@ -0,0 +1,82 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 3, + "verse": 45, + "reference": "SB 10.3.45", + "devanagari": "युवां मां पुत्रभावेन ब्रह्मभावेन चासकृत्\nचिन्तयन्तौ कृतस्नेहौ यास्येथे मद्गतिं पराम्", + "transliteration": "yuvāṁ māṁ putra-bhāvena\nbrahma-bhāvena cāsakṛt\ncintayantau kṛta-snehau\nyāsyethe mad-gatiṁ parām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yuvām", + "meanings": [ + "both of you (husband and wife)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mām", + "meanings": [ + "unto Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "putra-bhāvena", + "meanings": [ + "as your son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma-bhāvena", + "meanings": [ + "knowing that I am the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "and" + ] + }, + { + "word": "asakṛt", + "meanings": [ + "constantly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cintayantau", + "meanings": [ + "thinking like that" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛta-snehau", + "meanings": [ + "dealing with love and affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yāsyethe", + "meanings": [ + "shall both obtain" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mat-gatim", + "meanings": [ + "My supreme abode" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parām", + "meanings": [ + "which is transcendental, beyond this material world." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Both of you, husband and wife, constantly think of Me as your son, but always know that I am the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, however, is fighting against this principle of regarding Kṛṣṇa as a fictitious person and of accepting that there was no Battle of Kurukṣetra, that everything is symbolic, and that nothing in Bhagavad-gītā is true. In any case, if one truly wants to be successful, one can do so by reading the text of Bhagavad-gītā as it is.

Ordinary people may have difficulty accepting the supreme controller, God, as a human being because they forget that He can do everything by spiritual energy (ātma-māyayā). Nonbelievers say, \"How can the supreme controller descend as an ordinary being?\" This sort of thinking is materialistic. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī says that unless we accept the energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead as inconceivable, beyond the conception of our words and mind, we cannot understand the Supreme Lord.

How was this possible?\" Śukadeva Gosvāmī answered that Kṛṣṇa, by His own energy, destroyed the entire family and then thought of making His own body disappear. In this connection, Śukadeva Gosvāmī described how the Lord gave up His body. But this was not the destruction of Kṛṣṇa's body; rather, it was the disappearance of the Supreme Lord by His personal energy.", + "Actually, the Lord does not give up His body, which is eternal, but as He can change His body from the form of Viṣṇu to that of an ordinary human child, He can change His body to any form He likes. This does not mean that He gives up His body. By spiritual energy, the Lord can appear in a body made of wood or stone. He can change His body into anything because everything is His energy (parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate). As clearly said in Bhagavad-gītā (7.4), bhinnā prakṛtir aṣṭadhā: the material elements are separated energies of the Supreme Lord. If He transforms Himself into the arcā-mūrti, the worshipable Deity, which we see as stone or wood, He is still Kṛṣṇa. Therefore the śāstra warns, arcye viṣṇau śilā-dhīr guruṣu nara-matiḥ. One who thinks that the worshipable Deity in the temple is made of wood or stone, one who sees a Vaiṣṇava guru as an ordinary human being, or one who materially conceives of a Vaiṣṇava as belonging to a particular caste is nārakī, a resident of hell. The Supreme Personality of Godhead can appear before us in many forms, as he likes, but we must know the true facts: janma karma ca me divyam evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ (Bg. 4.9).

When Arjuna inquired from Kṛṣṇa in His universal form, \"Who are You?\" the Lord presented Himself as kāla, death personified to kill. By nature's law, when there is an unwanted increase in population, kāla appears, and by some arrangement of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, people are killed wholesale in different ways, by war, pestilence, famine and so on. At that time, even atheistic political leaders go to a church, mosque or temple for protection by God or gods and submissively say, \"God willing.\" Before that, they pay no attention to God, not caring to know God or His will, but when kāla appears, they say, \"God willing.\" Death is but another feature of the supreme kāla, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. At the time of death, the atheist must submit to this supreme kāla, and then the Supreme Personality of Godhead takes away all his possessions (mṛtyuḥ sarva-haraś cāham) and forces him to accept another body (tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ). This the atheists do not know, and if they do know, they neglect it so that they may go on with their normal life. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is trying to teach them that although for a few years one may act as a great protector or great watchman, with the appearance of kāla, death, one must take another body by the laws of nature. Not knowing this, they unnecessarily waste their time in their occupation as watchdogs and do not try to get the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Even though there may be doubts about the cutting of the umbilical cord, and even though it is possible that this was not done, when the Supreme Personality of Godhead appears, such events are regarded as factual. Kṛṣṇa appeared as Varāhadeva from the nostril of Brahmā, and therefore Brahmā is described as the father of Varāhadeva. Also significant are the words kārayām āsa vidhivat. Being overwhelmed with jubilation over the birth of his son, Nanda Mahārāja did not see whether the cord was cut or not. Thus he performed the ceremony very gorgeously. According to the opinion of some authorities, Kṛṣṇa was actually born as the son of Yaśodā.

Not satisfying Lord Viṣṇu but instead attempting to become happy through material adjustments (bahir-artha-māninaḥ) is the wrong way for happiness. Because Viṣṇu is the root of everything, if Viṣṇu is pleased, everyone is pleased; in particular, one's children and family members become happy in all respects. Nanda Mahārāja wanted to see his newborn child happy. That was his purpose. Therefore he wanted to satisfy Lord Viṣṇu, and to satisfy Lord Viṣṇu it was necessary to satisfy His devotees, such as the learned brāhmaṇas, māgadhas and sūtas.

As described here, they knew how to wave about the switch of a cow so as to protect the child from all types of danger. There are so many facilities afforded by cow protection, but people have forgotten these arts. The importance of protecting cows is therefore stressed by Kṛṣṇa in Bhagavad-gītā (kṛṣi-go-rakṣya-vāṇijyaṁ vaiśya-karma svabhāvajam). Even now in the Indian villages surrounding Vṛndāvana, the villagers live happily simply by giving protection to the cow. They keep cow dung very carefully and dry it to use as fuel.

Therefore Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has recommended, kīrtanīyaḥ sadā hariḥ paraṁ vijayate śrī-kṛṣṇa-saṅkīrtanam, and kīrtanād eva kṛṣṇasya mukta-saṅgaḥ paraṁ vrajet." + ], + "verse_end": 29 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/06/verses/30.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/06/verses/30.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5cf0a143 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/06/verses/30.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 6, + "verse": 30, + "reference": "SB 10.6.30", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nइति प्रणयबद्धाभिर्गोपीभिः कृतरक्षणम्\nपाययित्वा स्तनं माता सन्न्यवेशयद् आत्मजम्", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\niti praṇaya-baddhābhir\ngopībhiḥ kṛta-rakṣaṇam\npāyayitvā stanaṁ mātā\nsannyaveśayad ātmajam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "in this way" + ] + }, + { + "word": "praṇaya-baddhābhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "who were bound with maternal affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gopībhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by the elderly gopīs, headed by Mother Yaśodā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛta-rakṣaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "all measures were taken to protect the child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāyayitvā", + "meanings": [ + "and after that, feeding the child" + ] + }, + { + "word": "stanam", + "meanings": [ + "the nipple" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mātā", + "meanings": [ + "Mother Yaśodā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sannyaveśayat", + "meanings": [ + "made to lie down on the bed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmajam", + "meanings": [ + "her son." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: All the gopīs, headed by Mother Yaśodā, were bound by maternal affection.

The Lord took all this into consideration, and thus she was automatically promoted to a position like that of Mother Yaśodā. As explained by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura, there are various roles one may play in such a position. Pūtanā was immediately promoted to Vaikuṇṭhaloka, which is also sometimes described as Svarga.

Kṛṣṇa consciousness gradually develops on the transcendental platform. One may think of Kṛṣṇa as the supreme personality, one may think of Kṛṣṇa as the supreme master, one may think of Kṛṣṇa as the supreme friend, one may think of Kṛṣṇa as the supreme son, or one may think of Kṛṣṇa as the supreme conjugal lover. If one is connected with Kṛṣṇa in any of these transcendental relationships, the course of one's material life is understood to have already ended. As confirmed in Bhagavad-gītā (4.9), tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti: for such devotees, going back home, back to Godhead, is guaranteed. Na punaḥ kalpate rājan saṁsāro jñāna-sambhavaḥ. This verse also guarantees that devotees who constantly think of Kṛṣṇa in a particular relationship will never return to this material world. In this material world of saṁsāra, there are the same relationships. One thinks, \"Here is my son,\" \"Here is my wife,\" \"Here is my lover,\" or \"Here is my friend.\" But these relationships are temporary illusions. Ajñāna-sambhavaḥ: such a consciousness awakens in ignorance. But when the same relationships awaken in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, one's spiritual life is revived, and one is guaranteed to return home, back to Godhead. Even though the gopīs who were friends of Rohiṇī and Mother Yaśodā and who allowed their breasts to be sucked by Kṛṣṇa were not directly Kṛṣṇa's mothers, they all had the same chance as Rohiṇī and Yaśodā to go back to Godhead and act as Kṛṣṇa's mothers-in-law, servants and so on. The word saṁsāra refers to attachment for one's body, home, husband or wife, and children, but although the gopīs and all the other inhabitants of Vṛndāvana had the same affection and attachment for husband and home, their central affection was for Kṛṣṇa in some transcendental relationship, and therefore they were guaranteed to be promoted to Goloka Vṛndāvana in the next life, to live with Kṛṣṇa eternally in spiritual happiness. The easiest way to attain spiritual elevation, to be liberated from this material world, and to go back home, back to Godhead, is recommended by Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura: kṛṣṇera saṁsāra kara chāḍi' anācāra.

Kṛṣṇa's appearance on this planet like a human being makes us more fortunate than the demigods in the higher planets, and therefore Mahārāja Parīkṣit was very much interested in hearing about Him." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/07/verses/04.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/07/verses/04.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..eba1fd79 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/07/verses/04.json @@ -0,0 +1,81 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 4, + "reference": "SB 10.7.4", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nकदाचिद् औत्थानिककौतुकाप्लवे जन्मर्क्षयोगे समवेतयोषिताम्\nवादित्रगीतद्विजमन्त्रवाचकैश्चकार सूनोर् अभिषेचनं सती", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\nkadācid autthānika-kautukāplave\njanmarkṣa-yoge samaveta-yoṣitām\nvāditra-gīta-dvija-mantra-vācakaiś\ncakāra sūnor abhiṣecanaṁ satī", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued to speak (at the request of Mahārāja Parīkṣit)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kadācit", + "meanings": [ + "at that time (when Kṛṣṇa was three months old)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "autthānika-kautuka-āplave", + "meanings": [ + "when Kṛṣṇa was three or four months old and His body was developing, He attempted to turn around, and this pleasing occasion was observed with a festival and bathing ceremony" + ] + }, + { + "word": "janma-ṛkṣa-yoge", + "meanings": [ + "at that time, there was also a conjunction of the moon with the auspicious constellation Rohiṇī" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samaveta-yoṣitām", + "meanings": [ + "(the ceremony was observed) among the assembled women, a ceremony of mothers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāditra-gīta", + "meanings": [ + "different varieties of music and singing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dvija-mantra-vācakaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with chanting of Vedic hymns by qualified brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cakāra", + "meanings": [ + "executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sūnoḥ", + "meanings": [ + "of her son" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiṣecanam", + "meanings": [ + "the bathing ceremony" + ] + }, + { + "word": "satī", + "meanings": [ + "Mother Yaśodā." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: When Mother Yaśodā's baby was slanting His body to attempt to rise and turn around, this attempt was observed by a Vedic ceremony.

Even before the child is born, when the mother is pregnant, many recommended ritualistic ceremonies are performed. For example, when the child has been within the womb for three months and for seven months, there is a ceremony the mother observes by eating with neighboring children. This ceremony is called svāda-bhakṣaṇa. Similarly, before the birth of the child there is the garbhādhāna ceremony. In Vedic civilization, childbirth or pregnancy is never regarded as a burden; rather, it is a cause for jubilation. In contrast, people in modern civilization do not like pregnancy or childbirth, and when there is a child, they sometimes kill it.

Then, while the hymns were being chanted, he bathed the child with water mixed with pure herbs, and after performing a fire ceremony, he sumptuously fed all the brāhmaṇas with first-class grains and other food.", + "purport": [ + "Nanda Mahārāja was very confident about the qualifications of the brāhmaṇas and their blessings. He was fully confident that simply if the good brāhmaṇas showered their blessings, the child Kṛṣṇa would be happy. The blessings of qualified brāhmaṇas can bring happiness not only to Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but to everyone. Because Kṛṣṇa is self-sufficient, He does not require anyone's blessings, yet Nanda Mahārāja thought that Kṛṣṇa required the blessings of the brāhmaṇas. What then is to be said of others? In human society, therefore, there must be an ideal class of men, brāhmaṇas, who can bestow blessings upon others, namely, upon the kṣatriyas, vaiśyas and śūdras, so that everyone will be happy. Kṛṣṇa therefore says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.13) that human society must have four social orders (cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ); it is not that everyone should become a śūdra or a vaiśya and human society will prosper. As enunciated in Bhagavad-gītā, there must be a class of brāhmaṇas with qualities like satya (truthfulness), śama (peacefulness), dama (self-control) and titikṣā (tolerance).", + "Here also, in the Bhāgavatam, Nanda Mahārāja invites qualified brāhmaṇas. There may be caste brāhmaṇas, and we have all respect for them, but their birth in brāhmaṇa families does not mean that they are qualified to bestow blessings upon the other members of human society. This is the verdict of the śāstras. In Kali-yuga, caste brāhmaṇas are accepted as brāhmaṇas. Vipratve sūtram eva hi (Bhāg. 12.2.3): in Kali-yuga, simply by putting on a thread worth two paise, one becomes a brāhmaṇa. Such brāhmaṇas were not called for by Nanda Mahārāja. As stated by Nārada Muni (Bhāg. 7.11.35), yasya yal lakṣaṇaṁ proktam. The symptoms of a brāhmaṇa are stated in śāstra, and one must be qualified with these symptoms.", + "The blessings of brāhmaṇas who are not envious, disturbed or puffed up with pride and false prestige and who are fully qualified with truthfulness will be useful. Therefore a class of men must be trained as brāhmaṇas from the very beginning. Brahmacārī guru-kule vasan dānto guror hitam (Bhāg. 7.12.1). The word dāntaḥ is very important. Dāntaḥ refers to one who is not envious, disturbing or puffed up with false prestige. With the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, we are trying to introduce such brāhmaṇas in society. Brāhmaṇas must ultimately be Vaiṣṇavas, and if one is a Vaiṣṇava, he has already acquired the qualifications of a brāhmaṇa. Brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā (Bg. 18.54). The word brahma-bhūta refers to becoming a brāhmaṇa, or understanding what is Brahman (brahma jānātīti brāhmaṇaḥ). One who is brahma-bhūta is always happy (prasannātmā). Na śocati na kāṅkṣati: he is never disturbed about material necessities. Samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu: he is ready to bestow blessings upon everyone equally. Mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām: then he becomes a Vaiṣṇava. In this age, Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura introduced the sacred thread ceremony for his Vaiṣṇava disciples, with the idea that people should understand that when one becomes a Vaiṣṇava he has already acquired the qualifications of a brāhmaṇa. Therefore in the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, those who are twice initiated so as to become brāhmaṇas must bear in mind their great responsibility to be truthful, control the mind and senses, be tolerant, and so on. Then their life will be successful. It was such brāhmaṇas that Nanda Mahārāja invited to chant the Vedic hymns, not ordinary brāhmaṇas. Verse thirteen distinctly mentions hiṁsā-māna. The word māna refers to false prestige or false pride. Those who were falsely proud, thinking that they were brāhmaṇas because they were born in brāhmaṇa families, were never invited by Nanda Mahārāja on such occasions.", + "Verse fourteen mentions pavitrauṣadhi. In any ritualistic ceremony, many herbs and leaves were required. These were known as pavitra-patra. Sometimes there were nimba leaves, sometimes bael leaves, mango leaves, aśvattha leaves or āmalakī leaves. Similarly, there were pañca-gavya, pañca-śasya and pañca-ratna. Although Nanda Mahārāja belonged to the vaiśya community, everything was known to him.", + "The most important word in these verses is mahā-guṇam, indicating that the brāhmaṇas were offered very palatable food of exalted quality. Such palatable dishes were generally prepared with two things, namely food grains and milk products. Bhagavad-gītā (18.44) therefore enjoins that human society must give protection to the cows and encourage agriculture (kṛṣi-go-rakṣya-vāṇijyaṁ vaiśya-karma svabhāvajam). Simply by expert cooking, hundreds and thousands of palatable dishes can be prepared from agricultural produce and milk products. This is indicated here by the words annaṁ mahā-guṇam. Still today in India, from these two things, namely food grains and milk, hundreds and thousands of varieties of food are prepared, and then they are offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. (Catur-vidha-śrī-bhagavat-prasāda. [Gurv-aṣṭaka 4] Patraṁ puṣpaṁ phalaṁ toyaṁ yo me bhaktyā prayacchati.) Then the prasāda is distributed. Even today in Jagannātha-kṣetra and other big temples, very palatable dishes are offered to the Deity, and prasāda is distributed profusely. Cooked by first-class brāhmaṇas with expert knowledge and then distributed to the public, this prasāda is also a blessing from the brāhmaṇas or Vaiṣṇavas. There are four kinds of prasāda (catur-vidha). Salty, sweet, sour and pungent tastes are made with different types of spices, and the food is prepared in four divisions, called carvya, cūṣya, lehya and peya—prasāda that is chewed, prasāda that is licked, prasāda tasted with the tongue, and prasāda that is drunk. Thus there are many varieties of prasāda, prepared very nicely with grains and ghee, offered to the Deity and distributed to the brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas and then to the general public. This is the way of human society. Killing the cows and spoiling the land will not solve the problem of food. This is not civilization. Uncivilized men living in the jungle and being unqualified to produce food by agriculture and cow protection may eat animals, but a perfect human society advanced in knowledge must learn how to produce first-class food simply by agriculture and protection of cows." + ], + "verse_end": 15 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/07/verses/16.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/07/verses/16.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..bd8eaea1 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/07/verses/16.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 7, + "verse": 16, + "reference": "SB 10.7.16", + "devanagari": "गावः सर्वगुणोपेता वासःस्रग्रुक्ममालिनीः\nआत्मजाभ्युदयार्थाय प्रादात्ते चान्वयुंजत", + "transliteration": "gāvaḥ sarva-guṇopetā\nvāsaḥ-srag-rukma-mālinīḥ\nātmajābhyudayārthāya\nprādāt te cānvayuñjata", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "gāvaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "cows" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sarva-guṇa-upetāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "being fully qualified by giving sufficient milk, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "well dressed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "srak", + "meanings": [ + "with flower garlands" + ] + }, + { + "word": "rukma-mālinīḥ", + "meanings": [ + "and with garlands of gold" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ātmaja-abhyudaya-arthāya", + "meanings": [ + "for the purpose of his son's affluence" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prādāt", + "meanings": [ + "gave in charity" + ] + }, + { + "word": "te", + "meanings": [ + "those brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ca", + "meanings": [ + "also" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anvayuñjata", + "meanings": [ + "accepted them." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Nanda Mahārāja, for the sake of the affluence of his own son Kṛṣṇa, gave the brāhmaṇas cows fully decorated with garments, flower garlands and gold necklaces.

But although a demon may acquire such powers to a very limited extent, he cannot compete with the mystic power of Kṛṣṇa, for Kṛṣṇa is Yogeśvara, the source of all mystic power (yatra yogeśvaro hariḥ). No one can compete with Kṛṣṇa. Sometimes, of course, having acquired a fragmental portion of Kṛṣṇa's mystic power, asuras demonstrate their power to the foolish public and assert themselves to be God, not knowing that God is the supreme Yogeśvara.

When Mother Yaśodā was carrying Him, He became so heavy that His mother, who was usually accustomed to carrying Him, could not bear Him and had to place Him down on the ground. Thus Tṛṇāvarta had been able to take Kṛṣṇa away in the presence of Mother Yaśodā. But when Kṛṣṇa, high in the sky, assumed the mahimā-siddhi, the demon, unable to go further, was obliged to stop his force and come down according to Kṛṣṇa's desire. One should not, therefore, compete with Kṛṣṇa's mystic power.", + "Devotees automatically have all mystic power, but they do not like to compete with Kṛṣṇa. Instead, they fully surrender to Kṛṣṇa, and their yogic power is demonstrated by Kṛṣṇa's mercy. Devotees can show mystic yoga so powerful that a demon could not even dream of it, but they never try to demonstrate it for their personal sense gratification.

Nanda Mahārāja represented himself as gṛhiṇām, a householder. A brahmacārī factually has no needs, but gṛhī, householders, are engaged in sense gratification. As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (2.44), bhogaiśvarya-prasaktānāṁ tayāpahṛta-cetasām. Everyone has come to this material world for sense gratification, and the position of those who are too attached to sense gratification and who therefore accept the gṛhastha-āśrama is very precarious. Since everyone in this material world is searching for sense gratification, gṛhasthas are required to be trained as mahat, great mahātmās. Therefore Nanda Mahārāja specifically used the word mahad-vicalanam. Gargamuni had no interest to serve by going to Nanda Mahārāja, but Nanda Mahārāja, as a gṛhastha, was always perfectly ready to receive instructions from a mahātmā to gain the real benefit in life.

The whole system of Vedic knowledge is based on this principle, but people have lost the clue (na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ hi viṣṇum), and they are simply pursuing sense gratification, with the risk of gliding down to a lower grade of life (mṛtyu-saṁsāra-vartmani). It doesn't matter whether one is born a brāhmaṇa or not. No one is born a brāhmaṇa; everyone is born a śūdra. But by the guidance of a brāhmaṇa and by saṁskāra, one can become dvija, twice-born, and then gradually become a brāhmaṇa. Brāhmaṇism is not a system meant to create a monopoly for a particular class of men. Everyone should be educated so as to become a brāhmaṇa. At least there must be an opportunity to allow everyone to attain the destination of life. Regardless of whether one is born in a brāhmaṇa family, a kṣatriya family or a śūdra family, one may be guided by a proper brāhmaṇa and be promoted to the highest platform of being a Vaiṣṇava.

In other words, He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and may therefore do whatever He desires. In Vedic literature the different colors assumed by the Personality of Godhead in different millenniums are stated, and therefore when Gargamuni said, \"Your son has assumed these colors,\" he indirectly said, \"He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead.\" Because of Kaṁsa's atrocities, Gargamuni tried to avoid disclosing this fact, but he indirectly informed Nanda Mahārāja that Kṛṣṇa, his son, was the Supreme Personality of Godhead.", + "It may be noted that Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, in his book Krama-sandarbha, has enunciated the purport of this verse.

Other incarnations are partial representations of Kṛṣṇa, who is the full-fledged incarnation of the Supreme Being. It is to be understood that the Supreme Being, whether appearing as śukla, rakta or pīta (white, red or yellow), is the same person. When He appears in different incarnations, He appears in different colors, just like the sunshine, which contains seven colors. Sometimes the colors of sunshine are represented separately; otherwise the sunshine is observed mainly as bright light. The different avatāras, such as the manvantara-avatāras, līlā-avatāras and daśa-avatāras, are all included in the kṛṣṇa-avatāra. When Kṛṣṇa appears, all the avatāras appear with Him.

All living entities, including us, are aṁśas (mamaivāṁśo jīva-loke jīva-bhūtaḥ sanātanaḥ). These aṁśas are of different magnitude. Human beings (who are minute aṁśas) and the demigods, viṣṇu-tattva and all other living beings are all part of the Supreme. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13).

We actually see that in Kali-yuga, Bhagavān has appeared in pīta-varṇa, or a yellow color, as Gaurasundara, although the Bhāgavatam speaks of kṛṣṇa-varṇam. To adjust all these statements, one should understand that although in some yugas some of the colors are prominent, in every yuga, whenever Kṛṣṇa appears, all the colors are present. Kṛṣṇa-varṇaṁ tviṣākṛṣṇam: although Caitanya Mahāprabhu appears without kṛṣṇa, or a blackish color, He is understood to be Kṛṣṇa Himself. Idānīṁ kṛṣṇatāṁ gataḥ.

One is to understand our relationship with Kṛṣṇa (sambandha), another is to act according to that relationship (abhidheya), and the third is to reach the ultimate goal (prayojana). The word prayojana means \"necessities,\" and the ultimate necessity is explained by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

When one reaches the complete, perfect stage of upāsanā-kāṇḍa, one comes to worship Nārāyaṇa, or Lord Viṣṇu. When Pārvatī asked Lord Mahādeva, Lord Śiva, what is the best method of upāsanā, or worship, Lord Śiva answered, ārādhanānāṁ sarveṣāṁ viṣṇor ārādhanaṁ param. Viṣṇūpāsanā, or viṣṇv-ārādhana, worship of Lord Viṣṇu, is the highest stage of perfection, as realized by Devakī. But here Mother Yaśodā performs no upāsanā, for she has developed transcendental ecstatic love for Kṛṣṇa. Therefore her position is better than that of Devakī. In order to show this, Śrīla Vyāsadeva enunciates this verse, trayyā copaniṣadbhiḥ etc.", + "When a human being enters into the study of the Vedas to obtain vidyā, knowledge, he begins to take part in human civilization. Then he advances further to study the Upaniṣads and gain brahma jñāna, impersonal realization of the Absolute Truth, and then he advances still further, to sāṅkhya-yoga, in order to understand the supreme controller, who is indicated in Bhagavad-gītā (paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān/puruṣaṁ śāśvatam). When one understands that puruṣa, the supreme controller, to be Paramātmā, one is engaged in the method of yoga (dhyānāvasthita-tad-gatena manasā paśyanti yaṁ yoginaḥ). But Mother Yaśodā has surpassed all these stages. She has come to the platform of loving Kṛṣṇa as her beloved child, and therefore she is accepted to be on the highest stage of spiritual realization. The Absolute Truth is realized in three features (brahmeti paramātmeti bhagavān iti śabdyate), but she is in such ecstasy that she does not care to understand what is Brahman, what is Paramātmā or what is Bhagavān. Bhagavān has personally descended to become her beloved child. Therefore there is no comparison to Mother Yaśodā's good fortune, as declared by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu (ramyā kācid upāsanā vrajavadhū-vargeṇa yā kalpitā).

These contradictions cannot be understood by one who is not a devotee, but a devotee can understand how powerful is unalloyed devotional service to Kṛṣṇa; it is so powerful that Kṛṣṇa can be controlled by an unalloyed devotee. This bhṛtya-vaśyatā does not mean that He is under the control of the servant; rather, He is under the control of the servant's pure love. In Bhagavad-gītā (1.21) it is said that Kṛṣṇa became the chariot driver of Arjuna. Arjuna ordered Him, senayor ubhayor madhye rathaṁ sthāpaya me 'cyuta: \"My dear Kṛṣṇa, You have agreed to be my charioteer and to execute my orders. Place my chariot between the two armies of soldiers.\" Kṛṣṇa immediately executed this order, and therefore one may argue that Kṛṣṇa also is not independent. But this is one's ajñāna, ignorance. Kṛṣṇa is always fully independent; when He becomes subordinate to His devotees, this is a display of ānanda-cinmaya-rasa, the humor of transcendental qualities that increases His transcendental pleasure. Everyone worships Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and therefore He sometimes desires to be controlled by someone else.

Kṛṣṇa has the transcendental quality of bhṛtya-vaśyatā, becoming subordinate to His bhṛtya, or servant. Now, although everyone is bhṛtya and although Kṛṣṇa has the quality of becoming subordinate to His bhṛtya, the position of Mother Yaśodā is the greatest. Lord Brahmā is bhṛtya, a servant of Kṛṣṇa, and he is ādi-kavi, the original creator of this universe (tene brahma hṛdā ya ādi-kavaye). Nonetheless, even he could not obtain such mercy as Mother Yaśodā. As for Lord Śiva, he is the topmost Vaiṣṇava (vaiṣṇavānāṁ yathā śambhuḥ). What to speak of Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva, the goddess of fortune, Lakṣmī, is the Lord's constant companion in service, since she always associates with His body. But even she could not get such mercy. Therefore Mahārāja Parīkṣit was surprised, thinking, \"What did Mother Yaśodā and Nanda Mahārāja do in their previous lives by which they got such a great opportunity, the opportunity to be the affectionate father and mother of Kṛṣṇa?\"", + "In this verse there are three negative pronouncements—na, na, na. When anything is uttered three times—\"do it, do it, do it\"—one should understand that this is meant to indicate great stress on a fact. In this verse, we find na lebhire, na lebhire, na lebhire. Yet Mother Yaśodā is in the supermost exalted position, and thus Kṛṣṇa has become completely subordinate to her.", + "The word vimuktidāt is also significant. There are different types of liberation, such as sāyujya, sālokya, sārūpya, sārṣṭi and sāmīpya, but vimukti means \"special mukti.\" When after liberation one is situated on the platform of prema-bhakti, one is said to have achieved vimukti, \"special mukti.\" Therefore the word na is mentioned. That exalted platform of premā is described by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu as premā pum-artho mahān, and Mother Yaśodā naturally acts in such an exalted position in loving affairs.

Although they may sometimes be called śānta-bhaktas, real bhakti begins with dāsya-rasa. Kṛṣṇa says in Bhagavad-gītā (4.11):", + "ye yathā māṁ prapadyante
tāṁs tathaiva bhajāmy aham
mama vartmānuvartante
manuṣyāḥ pārtha sarvaśaḥ", + "\"As living entities surrender unto Me, I reward them accordingly. Everyone follows My path in all respects, O son of Pṛthā.\" Everyone is seeking Kṛṣṇa, for He is the Supersoul of all individual souls. Everyone loves his body and wants to protect it because he is within the body as the soul, and everyone loves the soul because the soul is part and parcel of the Supersoul. Therefore, everyone is actually seeking to achieve happiness by reviving his relationship with the Supersoul. As the Lord says in Bhagavad-gītā (15.15), vedaiś ca sarvair aham eva vedyaḥ: \"By all the Vedas, it is I who am to be known.\" Therefore, the karmīs, jñānīs, yogīs and saintly persons are all seeking Kṛṣṇa. But by following in the footsteps of devotees who are in a direct relationship with Kṛṣṇa, especially the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana, one can reach the supreme position of associating with Kṛṣṇa. As it is said, vṛndāvanaṁ parityajya padam ekaṁ na gacchati: Kṛṣṇa does not leave Vṛndāvana even for a moment. The vṛndāvana-vāsīs—Mother Yaśodā, Kṛṣṇa's friends and Kṛṣṇa's conjugal lovers, the younger gopīs with whom He dances—have very intimate relationships with Kṛṣṇa, and if one follows in the footsteps of these devotees, Kṛṣṇa is available. Although the nitya-siddha expansions of Kṛṣṇa always remain with Kṛṣṇa, if those engaged in sādhana-siddhi follow in the footsteps of Kṛṣṇa's nitya-siddha associates, such sādhana-siddhas also can easily attain Kṛṣṇa without difficulty. But there are those who are attached to bodily concepts of life. Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva, for example, have very prestigious positions, and thus they have the sense of being very exalted īśvaras. In other words, because Lord Brahmā and Lord Śiva are guṇa-avatāras and have exalted positions, they have some small sense of being like Kṛṣṇa. But the pure devotees who inhabit Vṛndāvana do not possess any bodily conception. They are fully dedicated to the service of the Lord in sublime affection, premā. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has therefore recommended, premā pum-artho mahān: the highest perfection of life is premā, pure love in relationship with Kṛṣṇa. And Mother Yaśodā appears to be the topmost of devotees who have attained this perfection." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/09/verses/22.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/09/verses/22.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..c362c41f --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/09/verses/22.json @@ -0,0 +1,73 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 22, + "reference": "SB 10.9.22", + "devanagari": "कृष्णस्तु गृहकृत्येषु व्यग्रायां मातरि प्रभुः\nअद्राक्षीद् अर्जुनौ पूर्वं गुह्यकौ धनदात्मजौ", + "transliteration": "kṛṣṇas tu gṛha-kṛtyeṣu\nvyagrāyāṁ mātari prabhuḥ\nadrākṣīd arjunau pūrvaṁ\nguhyakau dhanadātmajau", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kṛṣṇaḥ tu", + "meanings": [ + "in the meantime" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gṛha-kṛtyeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in engagement in household affairs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vyagrāyām", + "meanings": [ + "very busy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mātari", + "meanings": [ + "when His mother" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabhuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Lord" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adrākṣīt", + "meanings": [ + "observed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arjunau", + "meanings": [ + "the twin arjuna trees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pūrvam", + "meanings": [ + "before Him" + ] + }, + { + "word": "guhyakau", + "meanings": [ + "which in a former millennium had been demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhanada-ātmajau", + "meanings": [ + "the sons of Kuvera, the treasurer of the demigods." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "While Mother Yaśodā was very busy with household affairs, the Supreme Lord, Kṛṣṇa, observed twin trees known as yamala-arjuna, which in a former millennium had been the demigod sons of Kuvera.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/09/verses/23.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/09/verses/23.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..08e3ee1a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/09/verses/23.json @@ -0,0 +1,73 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 9, + "verse": 23, + "reference": "SB 10.9.23", + "devanagari": "पुरा नारदशापेन वृक्षतां प्रापितौ मदात्\nनलकूवरमणिग्रीवाव् इति ख्यातौ श्रियान्वितौ", + "transliteration": "purā nārada-śāpena\nvṛkṣatāṁ prāpitau madāt\nnalakūvara-maṇigrīvāv\niti khyātau śriyānvitau", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "purā", + "meanings": [ + "formerly" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārada-śāpena", + "meanings": [ + "being cursed by Nārada Muni" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vṛkṣatām", + "meanings": [ + "the forms of trees" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prāpitau", + "meanings": [ + "obtained" + ] + }, + { + "word": "madāt", + "meanings": [ + "because of madness" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nalakūvara", + "meanings": [ + "one of them was Nalakūvara" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṇigrīvau", + "meanings": [ + "the other was Maṇigrīva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iti", + "meanings": [ + "thus" + ] + }, + { + "word": "khyātau", + "meanings": [ + "well known" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śriyā anvitau", + "meanings": [ + "very opulent." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In their former birth, these two sons, known as Nalakūvara and Maṇigrīva, were extremely opulent and fortunate.

One who is in direct touch with the Supreme Personality of Godhead in devotional service remains pure, uncontaminated by material desires (anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyaṁ jñāna-karmādy-anāvṛtam).", + "By karma-miśra-bhakti one is elevated to the celestial kingdom, by jñāna-miśra-bhakti one is able to merge in the Brahman effulgence, and by yoga-miśra-bhakti one is able to realize the omnipotency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But pure bhakti does not depend on karma, jñāna or yoga, for it simply consists of loving affairs. The liberation of the bhakta, therefore, which is called not just mukti but vimukti, surpasses the five other kinds of liberation—sāyujya, sārūpya, sālokya, sārṣṭi and sāmīpya. A pure devotee always engages in pure service (ānukūlyena kṛṣṇānuśīlanaṁ bhaktir uttamā). Taking birth in the upper planetary system as a demigod is a chance to become a further purified devotee and go back home, back to Godhead. Nārada Muni indirectly gave Maṇigrīva and Nalakūvara the greatest opportunity by his so-called curse." + ], + "verse_end": 22 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/10/verses/23.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/10/verses/23.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f28042db --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/10/verses/23.json @@ -0,0 +1,75 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 10, + "verse": 23, + "reference": "SB 10.10.23", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nएवम् उक्त्वा स देवर्षिर्गतो नारायणाश्रमम्\nनलकूवरमणिग्रीवाव् आसतुर्यमलार्जुनौ", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\nevam uktvā sa devarṣir\ngato nārāyaṇāśramam\nnalakūvara-maṇigrīvāv\nāsatur yamalārjunau", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued to speak" + ] + }, + { + "word": "evam uktvā", + "meanings": [ + "thus uttering" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "he" + ] + }, + { + "word": "devarṣiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the greatest saintly person, Nārada" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "left that place" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nārāyaṇa-āśramam", + "meanings": [ + "for his own āśrama, known as Nārāyaṇa-āśrama" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nalakūvara", + "meanings": [ + "Nalakūvara" + ] + }, + { + "word": "maṇigrīvau", + "meanings": [ + "and Maṇigrīva" + ] + }, + { + "word": "āsatuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "remained there to become" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yamala-arjunau", + "meanings": [ + "twin arjuna trees." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: Having thus spoken, the great saint Devarṣi Nārada returned to his āśrama, known as Nārāyaṇa-āśrama, and Nalakūvara and Maṇigrīva became twin arjuna trees.", + "purport": [ + "Arjuna trees are still found in many forests, and their skin is used by cardiologists to prepare medicine for heart trouble.

By our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, we are trying to distribute Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam so that anyone in any part of the world can be absorbed in the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement by chanting and hearing about the activities of Kṛṣṇa and be free from all material tribulations." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/11/verses/59.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/11/verses/59.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..cacabab5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/11/verses/59.json @@ -0,0 +1,73 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 11, + "verse": 59, + "reference": "SB 10.11.59", + "devanagari": "एवं विहारैः कौमारैः कौमारं जहतुर्व्रजे\nनिलायनैः सेतुबन्धैर्मर्कटोत्प्लवनादिभिः", + "transliteration": "evaṁ vihāraiḥ kaumāraiḥ\nkaumāraṁ jahatur vraje\nnilāyanaiḥ setu-bandhair\nmarkaṭotplavanādibhiḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "evam", + "meanings": [ + "in this way" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vihāraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by different pastimes" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaumāraiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "childish" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kaumāram", + "meanings": [ + "the age of childhood" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jahatuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "(Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma) passed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vraje", + "meanings": [ + "in Vrajabhūmi" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nilāyanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by playing hide-and-seek" + ] + }, + { + "word": "setu-bandhaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by constructing an artificial bridge on the ocean" + ] + }, + { + "word": "markaṭa", + "meanings": [ + "like the monkeys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "utplavana-ādibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by jumping here and there, etc." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "In this way Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma passed Their childhood age in Vrajabhūmi by engaging in activities of childish play, such as playing hide-and-seek, constructing a make-believe bridge on the ocean, and jumping here and there like monkeys.", + "purport": [] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/01.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/01.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b39537a5 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/01.json @@ -0,0 +1,103 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 1, + "reference": "SB 10.12.1", + "devanagari": "श्रीशुक उवाच\nक्वचिद्वनाशाय मनो दधद्व्रजात्प्रातः समुत्थाय वयस्यवत्सपान्\nप्रबोधयञ्छृंगरवेण चारुणा विनिर्गतो वत्सपुरःसरो हरिः", + "transliteration": "śrī-śuka uvāca\nkvacid vanāśāya mano dadhad vrajāt\nprātaḥ samutthāya vayasya-vatsapān\nprabodhayañ chṛṅga-raveṇa cāruṇā\nvinirgato vatsa-puraḥsaro hariḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "śrī-śukaḥ uvāca", + "meanings": [ + "Śrī Śukadeva Gosvāmī said" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kvacit", + "meanings": [ + "one day" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vana-āśāya", + "meanings": [ + "just to enjoy a picnic in the forest" + ] + }, + { + "word": "manaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "dadhat", + "meanings": [ + "gave attention" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vrajāt", + "meanings": [ + "and went out of Vrajabhūmi" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prātaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "early in the morning" + ] + }, + { + "word": "samutthāya", + "meanings": [ + "waking up" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vayasya-vatsa-pān", + "meanings": [ + "the cowherd boys and the calves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prabodhayan", + "meanings": [ + "to get everyone to rise, waking up and informing them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "śṛṅga-raveṇa", + "meanings": [ + "by sounding the bugle made of horn" + ] + }, + { + "word": "cāruṇā", + "meanings": [ + "very beautiful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vinirgataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "came out of Vrajabhūmi" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vatsa-puraḥsaraḥ", + "meanings": [ + "keeping the respective groups of calves in front" + ] + }, + { + "word": "hariḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Śukadeva Gosvāmī continued: O King, one day Kṛṣṇa decided to take His breakfast as a picnic in the forest.

The cowherd boys, having accumulated the results of pious activities for many lives, were able to associate in this way with the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Somehow or other, whether one thinks of Kṛṣṇa as an ordinary human child, as the source of the Brahman effulgence, as the origin of Paramātmā, or as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one should concentrate one's full attention upon the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa. That is also the instruction of Bhagavad-gītā (18.66): sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the easiest way of directly approaching Kṛṣṇa. Īśvaraḥ sadyo hṛdy avarudhyate 'tra kṛtibhiḥ śuśrūṣubhis tat-kṣaṇāt (Bhāg. 1.1.2). Diverting even a little of one's attention toward Kṛṣṇa and activities in Kṛṣṇa consciousness immediately enables one to achieve the highest perfection of life. This is the purpose of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Lokasyājānato vidvāṁś cakre sātvata-saṁhitām (Bhāg. 1.7.6). The secret of success is unknown to people in general, and therefore Śrīla Vyāsadeva, being compassionate toward the poor souls in this material world, especially in this age of Kali, has given us the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Śrīmad-bhāgavataṁ purāṇam amalaṁ yad vaiṣṇavānāṁ priyam (Bhāg. 12.13.18). For Vaiṣṇavas who are somewhat advanced, or who are fully aware of the glories and potencies of the Lord, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is a beloved Vedic literature. After all, we have to change this body (tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ). If we do not care about Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, we do not know what the next body will be. But if one adheres to these two books—Bhagavad-gītā and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam—one is sure to obtain the association of Kṛṣṇa in the next life (tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti so 'rjuna). Therefore, distribution of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam all over the world is a great welfare activity for theologians, philosophers, transcendentalists and yogīs (yoginām api sarveṣām), as well as for people in general. Janma-lābhaḥ paraḥ puṁsām ante nārāyaṇa-smṛtiḥ (Bhāg. 2.1.6): if we can somehow or other remember Kṛṣṇa, Nārāyaṇa, at the end of life, our life will be successful." + ], + "verse_end": 11 +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/12.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/12.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..97ad473e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/12.json @@ -0,0 +1,123 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 12, + "reference": "SB 10.12.12", + "devanagari": "यत्पादपांसुर्बहुजन्मकृच्छ्रतो धृतात्मभिर्योगिभिर् अप्य् अलभ्यः\nस एव यद्दृग्विषयः स्वयं स्थितः किं वर्ण्यते दिष्टम् अतो व्रजौकसाम्", + "transliteration": "yat-pāda-pāṁsur bahu-janma-kṛcchrato\ndhṛtātmabhir yogibhir apy alabhyaḥ\nsa eva yad-dṛg-viṣayaḥ svayaṁ sthitaḥ\nkiṁ varṇyate diṣṭam ato vrajaukasām", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "yat", + "meanings": [ + "whose" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pāda-pāṁsuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "dust of the lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "bahu-janma", + "meanings": [ + "in many births" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kṛcchrataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from undergoing severe austerities and penances as a way of practicing yoga, meditation, etc." + ] + }, + { + "word": "dhṛta-ātmabhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by persons able to control the mind" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yogibhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by such yogīs (jñana-yogīs, rāja-yogīs, dhyāna-yogīs, etc.)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "api", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "alabhyaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "cannot be achieved" + ] + }, + { + "word": "saḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "eva", + "meanings": [ + "indeed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "yat-dṛk-viṣayaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "has become the object of direct vision, face to face" + ] + }, + { + "word": "svayam", + "meanings": [ + "personally" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sthitaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "present in front of them" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "varṇyate", + "meanings": [ + "can be described" + ] + }, + { + "word": "diṣṭam", + "meanings": [ + "about the fortune" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "therefore" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vraja-okasām", + "meanings": [ + "of the inhabitants of Vrajabhūmi, Vṛndāvana." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Yogīs may undergo severe austerities and penances for many births by practicing yama, niyama, āsana and prāṇāyāma, none of which are easily performed.

Entering the body of Kṛṣṇa is called sāyujya-mukti, but later verses prove that Aghāsura, like Dantavakra and others, received sārūpya-mukti. This has been broadly described by Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura with references from the Vaiṣṇava-toṣaṇī of Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī. Aghāsura attained sārūpya-mukti, being promoted to the Vaikuṇṭha planets to live with the same four-armed bodily features as Viṣṇu. The explanation of how this is so may be summarized as follows.", + "The effulgence came out from the python's body and became purified, attaining spiritual śuddha-sattva, freedom from material contamination, because Kṛṣṇa had stayed within the serpent's body, even after the serpent's death. One may doubt that such a demon, full of mischievous activities, could attain the liberation of sārūpya or sāyujya, and one may be astonished about this. But Kṛṣṇa is so kind that in order to drive away such doubts, He had the effulgence, the individual life of the python, wait for some time in its individuality, in the presence of all the demigods.", + "Kṛṣṇa is the full effulgence, and every living being is part and parcel of that effulgence. As proved here, the effulgence in every living being is individual. For some time, the effulgence remained outside the demon's body, individually, and did not mix with the whole effulgence, the brahma-jyoti. The Brahman effulgence is not visible to material eyes, but to prove that every living being is individual, Kṛṣṇa had this individual effulgence stay outside the demon's body for some time, for everyone to see. Then Kṛṣṇa proved that anyone killed by Him attains liberation, whether sāyujya, sārūpya, sāmīpya or whatever.", + "But the liberation of those who are on the transcendental platform of love and affection is vimukti, special liberation. Thus the serpent first entered the body of Kṛṣṇa personally and mixed with the Brahman effulgence. This merging is called sāyujya-mukti. But from later verses we find that Aghāsura attained sārūpya-mukti. Text 38 explains that Aghāsura attained a body exactly like that of Viṣṇu, and the verse after that also clearly states that he attained a completely spiritual body like that of Nārāyaṇa. Therefore in two or three places the Bhāgavatam has confirmed that Aghāsura attained sārūpya-mukti. One may then argue, How is it that he mixed with the Brahman effulgence? The answer is that as Jaya and Vijaya, after three births, again attained sārūpya-mukti and association with the Lord, Aghāsura received a similar liberation." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/34.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/34.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..07b5f4dd --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/12/verses/34.json @@ -0,0 +1,122 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 12, + "verse": 34, + "reference": "SB 10.12.34", + "devanagari": "ततो ऽतिहृष्टाः स्वकृतो ऽकृतार्हणं पुष्पैः सुगा अप्सरसश्च नर्तनैः\nगीतैः सुरा वाद्यधराश्च वाद्यकैः स्तवैश्च विप्रा जयनिःस्वनैर्गणाः", + "transliteration": "tato 'tihṛṣṭāḥ sva-kṛto 'kṛtārhaṇaṁ\npuṣpaiḥ sugā apsarasaś ca nartanaiḥ\ngītaiḥ surā vādya-dharāś ca vādyakaiḥ\nstavaiś ca viprā jaya-niḥsvanair gaṇāḥ", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "thereafter" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ati-hṛṣṭāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "everyone becoming very much pleased" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sva-kṛtaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "own respective duty" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṛta", + "meanings": [ + "executed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "arhaṇam", + "meanings": [ + "in the shape of worshiping the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "puṣpaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by showering flowers grown in Nandana-kānana from the heavens" + ] + }, + { + "word": "su-gāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the celestial singers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apsarasaḥ ca", + "meanings": [ + "and the celestial dancing girls" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nartanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by dancing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gītaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by singing celestial songs" + ] + }, + { + "word": "surāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "all the demigods" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vādya-dharāḥ ca", + "meanings": [ + "those who played on musical drums" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vādyakaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "by playing respectively" + ] + }, + { + "word": "stavaiḥ ca", + "meanings": [ + "and by offering prayers" + ] + }, + { + "word": "viprāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "the brāhmaṇas" + ] + }, + { + "word": "jaya-niḥsvanaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "simply by glorifying the Supreme Personality of Godhead" + ] + }, + { + "word": "gaṇāḥ", + "meanings": [ + "everyone." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Thereafter, everyone being pleased, the demigods began to shower flowers from Nandana-kānana, the celestial dancing girls began to dance, and the Gandharvas, who are famous for singing, offered songs of prayer.

Kṛṣṇa is also described as having His lotus feet always within the hearts of His devotees (bhagavān bhakta-hṛdi sthitaḥ). In the case of Aghāsura, one may argue that he was not a devotee. The answer to this is that he thought of Kṛṣṇa for a moment with devotion. Bhaktyāham ekayā grāhyaḥ. Without devotion, one cannot think of Kṛṣṇa; and, conversely, whenever one thinks of Kṛṣṇa, one undoubtedly has devotion. Although Aghāsura's purpose was to kill Kṛṣṇa, for a moment Aghāsura thought of Kṛṣṇa with devotion, and Kṛṣṇa and His associates wanted to sport within Aghāsura's mouth. Similarly, Pūtanā wanted to kill Kṛṣṇa by poisoning Him, but Kṛṣṇa took her as His mother because He had accepted the milk of her breast. Svalpam apy asya dharmasya trāyate mahato bhayāt (Bg. 2.40). Especially when Kṛṣṇa appears as an avatāra, anyone who thinks of Kṛṣṇa in His different incarnations (rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan), and especially in His original form as Kṛṣṇa, attains salvation. There are many instances of this, and among them is Aghāsura, who attained the salvation of sārūpya-mukti. Therefore the process is satataṁ kīrtayanto māṁ yatantaś ca dṛḍha-vratāḥ (Bg. 9.14). Those who are devotees always engage in glorifying Kṛṣṇa.

It does not matter that he was born of a lotus and not of any man, animal or material father. A lotus is also material, and anyone born through the material energy must be subject to the four material deficiencies: bhrama (the tendency to commit mistakes), pramāda (the tendency to be illusioned), vipralipsā (the tendency to cheat) and karaṇāpāṭava (imperfect senses).

Māyārbhakasya īśituḥ. This bewilderment, this māyā, was caused by the supreme controller, prabhavataḥ—the all-potent Supreme person, Kṛṣṇa—and we shall see the result. Anyone materially born is subject to bewilderment. This pastime is therefore called brahma-vimohana-līlā, the pastime of bewildering Brahmā. Mohitaṁ nābhijānāti mām ebhyaḥ param avyayam (Bg. 7.13).

There are two māyās working under the direction of Kṛṣṇa—mahāmāyā, the energy of the material world, and yogamāyā, the energy of the spiritual world. These uncommon events were taking place because of the influence of yogamāyā. From the very day on which Brahmā stole the calves and boys, yogamāyā acted in such a way that the residents of Vṛndāvana, including even Lord Balarāma, could not understand how yogamāyā was working and causing such uncommon things to happen. But as yogamāyā gradually acted, Balarāma in particular was able to understand what was happening, and therefore He inquired from Kṛṣṇa." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/36.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/36.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..7ce99670 --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/36.json @@ -0,0 +1,87 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 36, + "reference": "SB 10.13.36", + "devanagari": "किम् एतद् अद्भुतम् इव वासुदेवे ऽखिलात्मनि\nव्रजस्य सात्मनस्तोकेष्व् अपूर्वं प्रेम वर्धते", + "transliteration": "kim etad adbhutam iva\nvāsudeve 'khilātmani\nvrajasya sātmanas tokeṣv\napūrvaṁ prema vardhate", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "kim", + "meanings": [ + "what" + ] + }, + { + "word": "etat", + "meanings": [ + "this" + ] + }, + { + "word": "adbhutam", + "meanings": [ + "wonderful" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva", + "meanings": [ + "just as" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vāsudeve", + "meanings": [ + "in Vāsudeva, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akhila-ātmani", + "meanings": [ + "the Supersoul of all living entities" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vrajasya", + "meanings": [ + "of all the inhabitants of Vraja" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-ātmanaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "along with Me" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tokeṣu", + "meanings": [ + "in these boys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "apūrvam", + "meanings": [ + "unprecedented" + ] + }, + { + "word": "prema", + "meanings": [ + "affection" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vardhate", + "meanings": [ + "is increasing." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "What is this wonderful phenomenon?

And why are You expanding Yourself as the cows, calves and boys? Will You kindly tell Me what is the cause?\" At the request of Balarāma, Kṛṣṇa briefly explained the whole situation: how the calves and boys were stolen by Brahmā and how He was concealing the incident by expanding Himself so that people would not know that the original cows, calves and boys were missing. Balarāma understood, therefore, that this was not māyā but Kṛṣṇa's opulence. Kṛṣṇa has all opulences, and this was but another opulence of Kṛṣṇa.", + "\"At first,\" Lord Balarāma said, \"I thought that these boys and calves were a display of the power of great sages like Nārada, but now I see that all these boys and calves are You.\" After inquiring from Kṛṣṇa, Lord Balarāma understood that Kṛṣṇa Himself had become many. That the Lord can do this is stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.33). Advaitam acyutam anādim ananta-rūpam: although He is one, He can expand Himself in so many forms. According to the Vedic version, ekaṁ bahu syām: He can expand Himself into many thousands and millions but still remain one. In that sense, everything is spiritual because everything is an expansion of Kṛṣṇa; that is, everything is an expansion either of Kṛṣṇa Himself or of His potency. Because the potency is nondifferent from the potent, the potency and the potent are one (śakti-śaktimatayor abhedaḥ). The Māyāvādīs, however, say, cid-acit-samanvayaḥ: spirit and matter are one. This is a wrong conception. Spirit (cit) is different from matter (acit), as explained by Kṛṣṇa Himself in Bhagavad-gītā (7.4-5):", + "bhūmir āpo 'nalo vāyuḥ
khaṁ mano buddhir eva ca
ahaṅkāra itīyaṁ me
bhinnā prakṛtir aṣṭadhā", + "apareyam itas tv anyāṁ
prakṛtiṁ viddhi me parām
jīva-bhūtāṁ mahā-bāho
yayedaṁ dhāryate jagat", + "\"Earth, water, fire, air, ether, mind, intelligence and false ego—all together these eight comprise My separated material energies. But besides this inferior nature, O mighty-armed Arjuna, there is a superior energy of Mine, which consists of all living entities who are struggling with material nature and are sustaining the universe.\" Spirit and matter cannot be made one, for actually they are superior and inferior energies, yet the Māyāvādīs, or Advaita-vādīs, try to make them one. This is wrong. Although spirit and matter ultimately come from the same one source, they cannot be made one. For example, there are many things that come from our bodies, but although they come from the same source, they cannot be made one. We should be careful to note that although the supreme source is one, the emanations from this source should be separately regarded as inferior and superior. The difference between the Māyāvāda and Vaiṣṇava philosophies is that the Vaiṣṇava philosophy recognizes this fact. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's philosophy, therefore, is called acintya-bhedābheda—simultaneous oneness and difference. For example, fire and heat cannot be separated, for where there is fire there is heat and where there is heat there is fire. Nonetheless, although we cannot touch fire, heat we can tolerate.

Sat and asat-svabhāva—one's higher or lower nature—is formed by association with the different qualities, namely sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa. We should gradually come to the sattva-guṇa, so that we may avoid the two lower guṇas. This can be done if we regularly discuss Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and hear about Kṛṣṇa's activities. Naṣṭa-prāyeṣv abhadreṣu nityaṁ bhāgavata-sevayā (Bhāg. 1.2.18). All the activities of Kṛṣṇa described in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, beginning even with the pastimes concerning Pūtanā, are transcendental.

One should therefore be brought to sattva-guṇa by the establishment of varṇāśrama-dharma and should develop the brahminical qualifications of being very neat and clean, rising early in the morning and seeing maṅgala-ārātrika, and so on.

The members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, for example, being engaged in vāsudeva-bhakti, very quickly come to the stage of being nice Vaiṣṇavas, so much so that people are surprised that mlecchas and yavanas are able to come to this stage. This is possible by vāsudeva-bhakti.

If one associates with bhaktas, then one's svabhāva, or nature, will change. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is meant to give people good association so that this change may take place, and we actually see that by this method people all over the world are gradually becoming devotees.", + "As for saṁskāra, or reformation, this is possible by good association, for by good association one develops good habits, and habit becomes second nature. Therefore, bhakta-sane vāsa: let people have the chance to live with bhaktas. Then their habits will change. In the human form of life one has this chance, but as Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura sings, hari hari viphale janama goṅāinu: if one fails to take advantage of this opportunity, one's human life is wasted. We are therefore trying to save human society from degradation and actually elevate people to the higher nature.", + "As for kāma and karma—desires and activities—if one engages in devotional service, one develops a different nature than if one engages in activities of sense gratification, and of course the result is also different. According to the association of different natures, one receives a particular type of body. Kāraṇaṁ guṇa-saṅgo 'sya sad-asad-yoni janmasu (Bg. 13.22). Therefore we should always seek good association, the association of devotees. Then our life will be successful. A man is known by his company.

This proves that Brahman and Paramātmā can actually he understood only through devotion, as confirmed by the Lord Himself in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam: bhaktyāham ekayā grāhyaḥ (Bhāg. 11.14.21). To establish that Brahman indeed has transcendental form, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura gives various quotations from the śāstras.

Bhaktas know that the form of Kṛṣṇa, or Brahman, is not at all material. Rather, Brahman has a transcendental form, and when one is absorbed in it, being fully developed in bhakti, one can understand Him (premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena). The Māyāvādīs, however, cannot understand this transcendental form, for they think that it is material.", + "Transcendental forms of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His person are so great that the impersonal followers of the Upaniṣads cannot reach the platform of knowledge to understand them.

The cows, calves and boys transformed into viṣṇu-mūrtis, or Viṣṇu forms, were not displays of viṣṇu-māyā, or Viṣṇu energy, but were Viṣṇu Himself. The respective qualifications of Viṣṇu and viṣṇu-māyā are just like those of fire and heat. In heat there is the qualification of fire, namely warmth; and yet heat is not fire. The manifestation of the Viṣṇu forms of the boys, cows and calves was not like the heat, but rather like the fire—they were all actually Viṣṇu. Factually, the qualification of Viṣṇu is full truth, full knowledge and full bliss. Another example may be given with material objects, which may be reflected in many, many forms. For example, the sun is reflected in many waterpots, but the reflections of the sun in many pots are not actually the sun.

But even Brahmā, the lord of Sarasvatī, was bewildered about Kṛṣṇa. Although he tried, he could not understand Lord Kṛṣṇa. In the beginning the boys, the calves and Kṛṣṇa Himself had been covered by yogamāyā, which later displayed the second set of calves and boys, who were Kṛṣṇa's expansions, and which then displayed so many four-armed forms. Now, seeing Brahmā's bewilderment, Lord Kṛṣṇa caused the disappearance of that yogamāyā. One may think that the māyā taken away by Lord Kṛṣṇa was mahāmāyā, but Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura comments that it was yogamāyā, the potency by which Kṛṣṇa is sometimes manifest and sometimes not manifest. The potency which covers the actual reality and displays something unreal is mahāmāyā, but the potency by which the Absolute Truth is sometimes manifest and sometimes not is yogamāyā. Therefore, in this verse the word ajā refers to yogamāyā.", + "Kṛṣṇa's energy—His māyā-śakti, or svarūpa-śakti—is one, but it is manifested in varieties. Parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate (Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad 6.8). The difference between Vaiṣṇavas and Māyāvādīs is that Māyāvādīs say that this māyā is one, whereas Vaiṣṇavas recognize its varieties. There is unity in variety. For example, in one tree, there are varieties of leaves, fruits and flowers. Varieties of energy are required for performing the varieties of activity within the creation. To give another example, in a machine all the parts may be iron, but the machine includes varied activities. Although the whole machine is iron, one part works in one way, and other parts work in other ways. One who does not know how the machine is working may say that it is all iron; nonetheless, in spite of its being iron, the machine has different elements, all working differently to accomplish the purpose for which the machine was made. One wheel runs this way, another wheel runs that way, functioning naturally in such a way that the work of the machine goes on. Consequently we give different names to the different parts of the machine, saying, \"This is a wheel,\" \"This is a screw,\" \"This is a spindle,\" \"This is the lubrication,\" and so on.

The saṁvit, sandhinī and āhlādinī potencies—Kṛṣṇa's potency for existence, His potency for knowledge and His potency for pleasure—are distinct from yogamāyā. Each is an individual potency. The āhlādinī potency is Rādhārāṇī. As Svarūpa Dāmodara Gosvāmī has explained, rādhā kṛṣṇa-praṇaya-vikṛtir hlādinī śaktir asmāt (Cc. Ādi 1.5).

With one's limited senses, one cannot argue about that which is inconceivable. Therefore the inconceivable is called acintya, that which is beyond cintya, our thoughts and arguments. Acintya refers to that which we cannot contemplate but have to accept. Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has said that unless we accept acintya in the Supreme, we cannot accommodate the conception of God. This must be understood. Therefore we say that the words of śāstra should be taken as they are, without change, since they are beyond our arguments. Acintyāḥ khalu ye bhāvā na tāṁs tarkeṇa yojayet: \"That which is acintya cannot be ascertained by argument.\" People generally argue, but our process is not to argue but to accept the Vedic knowledge as it is. When Kṛṣṇa says, \"This is superior, and this is inferior,\" we accept what He says. It is not that we argue, \"Why is this superior and that inferior?\" If one argues, for him the knowledge is lost.", + "This path of acceptance is called avaroha-panthā. The word avaroha is related to the word avatāra, which means \"that which descends.\" The materialist wants to understand everything by the āroha-panthā—by argument and reason—but transcendental matters cannot be understood in this way. Rather, one must follow the avaroha-panthā, the process of descending knowledge. Therefore one must accept the paramparā system. And the best paramparā is that which extends from Kṛṣṇa (evaṁ paramparā-prāptam). What Kṛṣṇa says, we should accept (imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ). This is called the avaroha-panthā.", + "Brahmā, however, adopted the āroha-panthā. He wanted to understand Kṛṣṇa's mystic power by his own limited, conceivable power, and therefore he himself was mystified. Everyone wants to take pleasure in his own knowledge, thinking, \"I know something.\" But in the presence of Kṛṣṇa this conception cannot stand, for one cannot bring Kṛṣṇa within the limitations of prakṛti. One must submit. There is no alternative. Na tāṁs tarkeṇa yojayet. This submission marks the difference between Kṛṣṇa-ites and Māyāvādīs.", + "The phrase atan-nirasana refers to the discarding of that which is irrelevant.

In describing a pencil, one may say, \"It is not this; it is not that,\" but this does not tell us what it is. This is called definition by negation. In Bhagavad-gītā, Kṛṣṇa also explains the soul by giving negative definitions. Na jāyate mriyate vā: \"It is not born, nor does it die. You can hardly understand more than this.\" But what is it? It is eternal. Ajo nityaḥ śāśvato 'yaṁ purāṇo na hanyate hanyamāne śarīre: \"It is unborn, eternal, ever-existing, undying and primeval.

Envy develops because of sense gratification, but in Vṛndāvana there is no sense gratification, for the only aim is Kṛṣṇa's satisfaction.

Everyone wants to serve Kṛṣṇa in a different capacity, and thus there is no envy. One may sometimes think that the monkeys in Vṛndāvana are envious, because they cause mischief and steal food, but in Vṛndāvana we find that the monkeys are allowed to take butter, which Kṛṣṇa Himself distributes. Kṛṣṇa personally demonstrates that everyone has the right to live. This is Vṛndāvana life. Why should I live and you die? No. That is material life. The inhabitants of Vṛndāvana think, \"Whatever is given by Kṛṣṇa, let us divide it as prasāda and eat.\" This mentality cannot appear all of a sudden, but it will gradually develop with Kṛṣṇa consciousness; by sādhana, one can come to this platform.", + "In the material world one may collect funds all over the world in order to distribute food freely, yet those to whom the food is given may not even feel appreciative. The value of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, however, will gradually be very much appreciated. For instance, in an article about the temple of the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement in Durban, South Africa, the Durban Post reported, \"All the devotees here are very active in the service of Lord Kṛṣṇa, and the results are obvious to see: happiness, good health, peace of mind, and the development of all good qualities.\" This is the nature of Vṛndāvana. Harāv abhaktasya kuto mahad-guṇāḥ: without Kṛṣṇa consciousness, happiness is impossible; one may struggle, but one cannot have happiness. We are therefore trying to give human society the opportunity for a life of happiness, good health, peace of mind and all good qualities through God consciousness." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/61.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/61.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9caa2d7e --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/61.json @@ -0,0 +1,120 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 61, + "reference": "SB 10.13.61", + "devanagari": "तत्रोद्वहत्पशुपवंशशिशुत्वनाट्यं ब्रह्माद्वयं परम् अनन्तम् अगाधबोधम्\nवत्सान्सखीन् इव पुरा परितो विचिन्वद् एकं सपाणिकवलं परमेष्ठ्य् अचष्ट", + "transliteration": "tatrodvahat paśupa-vaṁśa-śiśutva-nāṭyaṁ\nbrahmādvayaṁ param anantam agādha-bodham\nvatsān sakhīn iva purā parito vicinvad\nekaṁ sa-pāṇi-kavalaṁ parameṣṭhy acaṣṭa", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "tatra", + "meanings": [ + "there (in Vṛndāvana)" + ] + }, + { + "word": "udvahat", + "meanings": [ + "assuming" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paśupa-vaṁśa-śiśutva-nāṭyam", + "meanings": [ + "the play of being a child in a family of cowherd men (another of Kṛṣṇa's names is Gopāla, \"He who maintains the cows\")" + ] + }, + { + "word": "brahma", + "meanings": [ + "the Absolute Truth" + ] + }, + { + "word": "advayam", + "meanings": [ + "without a second" + ] + }, + { + "word": "param", + "meanings": [ + "the Supreme" + ] + }, + { + "word": "anantam", + "meanings": [ + "unlimited" + ] + }, + { + "word": "agādha-bodham", + "meanings": [ + "possessing unlimited knowledge" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vatsān", + "meanings": [ + "the calves" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sakhīn", + "meanings": [ + "and His friends, the boys" + ] + }, + { + "word": "iva purā", + "meanings": [ + "just as before" + ] + }, + { + "word": "paritaḥ", + "meanings": [ + "everywhere" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vicinvat", + "meanings": [ + "searching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "ekam", + "meanings": [ + "alone, all by Himself" + ] + }, + { + "word": "sa-pāṇi-kavalam", + "meanings": [ + "with a morsel of food in His hand" + ] + }, + { + "word": "parameṣṭhī", + "meanings": [ + "Lord Brahmā" + ] + }, + { + "word": "acaṣṭa", + "meanings": [ + "saw." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "Then Lord Brahmā saw the Absolute Truth—who is one without a second, who possesses full knowledge and who is unlimited—assuming the role of a child in a family of cowherd men and standing all alone, just as before, with a morsel of food in His hand, searching everywhere for the calves and His cowherd friends.", + "purport": [ + "The word agādha-bodham, meaning \"full of unlimited knowledge,\" is significant in this verse.

Don't try to measure Kṛṣṇa.", + "The word advayam, meaning \"one without a second,\" is also significant. Because Brahmā was overcast by Kṛṣṇa's māyā, he was thinking himself the Supreme. In the material world, everyone thinks, \"I am the best man in this world. I know everything.\" One thinks, \"Why should I read Bhagavad-gītā? I know everything. I have my own interpretation.\" Brahmā, however, was able to understand that the Supreme Personality is Kṛṣṇa. Īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ. Another of Kṛṣṇa's names, therefore, is parameśvara.", + "Now Brahmā saw Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, appearing as a cowherd boy in Vṛndāvana, not demonstrating His opulence but standing just like an innocent boy with some food in His hand, loitering with His cowherd boyfriends, calves and cows. Brahmā did not see Kṛṣṇa as catur-bhuja, the opulent Nārāyaṇa; rather, he simply saw an innocent boy. Nonetheless, he could understand that although Kṛṣṇa was not demonstrating His power, He was the same Supreme person. People generally do not appreciate someone unless he shows something wonderful, but here, although Kṛṣṇa did not manifest anything wonderful, Brahmā could understand that the same wonderful person was present like an ordinary child, although He was the master of the whole creation. Thus Brahmā prayed, govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi: \"You are the original person, the cause of everything. I bow down to You.\" This was his realization. Tam ahaṁ bhajāmi. This is what is wanted. Vedeṣu durlabham: one cannot reach Kṛṣṇa merely by Vedic knowledge. Adurlabham ātma-bhaktau: but when one becomes a devotee, then one can realize Him. Brahmā, therefore, became a devotee. In the beginning he was proud of being Brahmā, the lord of the universe, but now he understood, \"Here is the Lord of the universe. I am simply an insignificant agent. Govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi.\"", + "Kṛṣṇa was playing like a dramatic actor. Because Brahmā had some false prestige, thinking that he had some power, Kṛṣṇa showed him his real position. A similar incident occurred when Brahmā went to see Kṛṣṇa in Dvārakā. When Kṛṣṇa's doorman informed Lord Kṛṣṇa that Lord Brahmā had arrived, Kṛṣṇa responded, \"Which Brahmā? Ask him which Brahmā.\" The doorman relayed this question, and Brahmā was astonished. \"Is there another Brahmā besides me?\" he thought. When the doorman informed Lord Kṛṣṇa, \"It is four-headed Brahmā,\" Lord Kṛṣṇa said, \"Oh, four-headed. Call others. Show him.\" This is Kṛṣṇa's position. For Kṛṣṇa the four-headed Brahmā is insignificant, to say nothing of \"four-headed scientists.\" Materialistic scientists think that although this planet earth is full of opulence, all others are vacant. Because they simply speculate, this is their scientific conclusion. But from the Bhāgavatam we understand that the entire universe is full of living entities everywhere. Thus it is the folly of the scientists that although they do not know anything, they mislead people by presenting themselves as scientists, philosophers and men of knowledge." + ] +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/62.json b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/62.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..80387b4a --- /dev/null +++ b/app/lib/books/sb/cantos/10/chapters/13/verses/62.json @@ -0,0 +1,108 @@ +{ + "book_title": "Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam", + "canto": 10, + "chapter": 13, + "verse": 62, + "reference": "SB 10.13.62", + "devanagari": "दृष्ट्वा त्वरेण निजधोरणतो ऽवतीर्य पृथ्व्यां वपुः कनकदण्डम् इवाभिपात्य\nस्पृष्ट्वा चतुर्मुकुटकोटिभिर् अंघ्रियुग्मं नत्वा मुदश्रुसुजलैर् अकृताभिषेकम्", + "transliteration": "dṛṣṭvā tvareṇa nija-dhoraṇato 'vatīrya\npṛthvyāṁ vapuḥ kanaka-daṇḍam ivābhipātya\nspṛṣṭvā catur-mukuṭa-koṭibhir aṅghri-yugmaṁ\nnatvā mud-aśru-sujalair akṛtābhiṣekam", + "synonyms": [ + { + "word": "dṛṣṭvā", + "meanings": [ + "after seeing" + ] + }, + { + "word": "tvareṇa", + "meanings": [ + "with great speed, hastily" + ] + }, + { + "word": "nija-dhoraṇataḥ", + "meanings": [ + "from his swan carrier" + ] + }, + { + "word": "avatīrya", + "meanings": [ + "descended" + ] + }, + { + "word": "pṛthvyām", + "meanings": [ + "on the ground" + ] + }, + { + "word": "vapuḥ", + "meanings": [ + "his body" + ] + }, + { + "word": "kanaka-daṇḍam iva", + "meanings": [ + "like a golden rod" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhipātya", + "meanings": [ + "fell down" + ] + }, + { + "word": "spṛṣṭvā", + "meanings": [ + "touching" + ] + }, + { + "word": "catuḥ-mukuṭa-koṭi-bhiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the tips of his four crowns" + ] + }, + { + "word": "aṅghri-yugmam", + "meanings": [ + "the two lotus feet" + ] + }, + { + "word": "natvā", + "meanings": [ + "making obeisances" + ] + }, + { + "word": "mut-aśru-su-jalaiḥ", + "meanings": [ + "with the water of his tears of joy" + ] + }, + { + "word": "akṛta", + "meanings": [ + "performed" + ] + }, + { + "word": "abhiṣekam", + "meanings": [ + "the ceremony of bathing His lotus feet." + ] + } + ], + "translation": "After seeing this, Lord Brahmā hastily got down from his swan carrier, fell down like a golden rod and touched the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa with the tips of the four crowns on his heads.
