CC daily 89 – M 6.50-57 – Sarvabhauma’s affection for the Lord awakens
Thank you I want to know I want to know What was this Purvashram? Where did you stay? What did you do? Sometimes when we come to We meet some devotees How did you come to Krishna Consciousness? What were you doing before you were introduced to Bhakti? So now somebody is a Sanyasi That person has renounced the world now But still if you want to know something more about a Sanyasi We would like to know How did you become a Sanyasi? So naturally that is related with Where were you before? What were you doing? So what was your Purvashram? So Sanyasa is the Highest Ashram And there has to be some Purvashram before that Few people may just go from Brahmachari Ashram Directly to Sanyasa Ashram And many more Who actually come to Sanyasa will be those Who have been Girl Stars before And then they come to Sanyasa Ashram So which was the Purvashram? Where was the Purvashram? So that is the question which Sarvabhattacharya naturally has in his mind When he sees Chitanya Mahaprabhu And he asks this question to Gopinathacharya And Gopinathacharya says Navadvipeghar Jagannath namapadavi Mishrapurandhar So Gopinathacharya says He replied Navadvipeghar He was residing in Navadvip And Jagannath Whose surname was Mishrapurandhar Jagannath Mishrapurandhar Vishwambhare nama ee har Tandra ee ho putra Nilambara chakravarti Rahena dauhitra So his name was Vishwambhare nama ee har Tandra ee ho putra So he is This person Whose name was Vishwambhare He was the son of Jagannath Mishra Nilambara chakravarti Rahena dauhitra And Who was this Jagannath Mishra Dauhitra Dauhitra is Here grandson from the Daughter's side So he says that He is the grandson of Nilambara chakravarti Jagannath Mishra Was himself Navadvip well known But Nilambara chakravarti as astrologer Was much much more well known He was also a great scholar And so The likelihood of Sarobhattacharya Knowing Nilambara chakravarti was greater And Bhupendacharya knew also The connection between Nilambara chakravarti and Sarobhattacharya That's why he brought that connection also Normally we may not tell Who is his grandfather Unless that grandfather is a very famous person But in this case because he was Because he was Connected with Because both Nilambara chakravarti was very famous And because Nilambara chakravarti was connected with Sarobhattacharya So he brought that name here Sarvabhauma kahe Nilambara chakravarti Visharadhera Samadhyay Eitanrakhyati Visharadhera Samadhyay Eitanrakhyati So Sarobhattacharya replied Oh Nilambara chakravarti I have heard of him He was a co-student With classmates Both of them studied together He studied with Maheshwar Visharadhera Now Visharadhera is one who was very expert Eitanrakhyati And that's how He is known That's how he was famous actually And I knew him So he said that he was Like he was my father's friend And they both studied together So often The relationship that are formed in Student age If we continue to maintain that relationship There is a special intimacy there And for a son to know that Oh that my father was a student like me At that time this person was his friend It's a special flavor in that relationship Visharapurandara tantra Manyahena jani Pitarasambandhe Doha ke puja kari mani Visharapurandara tantra Manyahena jani So Visharapuracharya Vishara was respected by my father He said Manyahena jani Pitarasambandhe Doha ke puja kari mani And In this way Because of their relationship with my father I consider them Respectable I consider both of them respectable Now if you see If you look from a generation point of view There is Nilambar Chakravarti was in the In the grandfather generation Jagannath Mishra in the father generation Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in the current generation So Nilambar Chakravarti's friend is Maheshwar Visharada Maheshwar Visharada's son is So Maheshwar Visharada is also in the Grandfather's generation And Sarvambattacharya is in the son's generation Sorry, is in the father's generation Same as Jagannath Mishra So he is saying that actually Because my father knew them, my father respected both of them So I respect both of them also At puja kari mani he says I consider them not just respectable I consider them very respectable, worshipable almost And then Nadiyasambandhe Sarvabhauma Sarvabhauma Rishtahaila And knowing about that He was from Nadia Sarvabhauma rishtahaila, he became happy He became jubilant Normally when we go and stay in a distant place Especially say some Indians go and stay in America Then If In America We meet someone from India And all the more if we meet someone from India More or less from the same place, let me say Maharashtra Same city Mumbai or whatever Then Not just from the same place but from the same cultural background Similar cultural background Then there is an instant kinship that is formed over there So Nadiyasambandhe sarvabhauma rishtahaila He became jubilant Knowing about him And Prithahaiya Feeling pleased So What did he do? Gosair kahite lagila Gosair Now in this particular conversation You will see that repeatedly Chaitanya Mahaprabhu will be referred to by the title Gosair Because he is in the sanyas order And Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya Will treat him very respectfully as a sanyasi So the word Gosair is more appropriate And that is the word that will be used Sahajai pujyatumi Arata sanyas Ataiva hana tomara Amini jadaas Sahajai ti pujyatumi He says You are naturally respectable to me Because you belong to the illustrious family You are respectable Arata sanyas And additionally you are in the renounced order You are sanyasi Ataiva hana tomara Amini jadaas See his humility He says therefore I become your servant Tomara amini jadaas I become your servant Which is the sweet and humble Mode of Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya Although in age he is in the generation Of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's father But seeing the respectful connection And seeing that he is In a higher ashram In the sanyas ashram He says Amini jadaas I am your servant Shuni Mahaprabhu Kailakshri Vishnu smaran Bhattacharya kahe kichu vinaya vachan Shuni Mahaprabhu When Mahaprabhu heard this Kailakshri Vishnu smaran He remembered Vishnu And Bhattacharya kahe Now why did he remember Vishnu Normally when a devotee is offered praise A devotee offers the praise He passes the praise on to Krishna The devotee doesn't think this is my glory This is not my greatness The devotee thinks this is Krishna's greatness And I am grateful to Krishna That he is manifesting Something through me He passes on the praise to Krishna Shuni Vishnu smaran Bhattacharya kahe kichu vinaya vachan And Vinaya with humility Bhattacharya started speaking to Bhattacharya Now conversation becomes relishable When both parties Exhibit appropriate Behavior, appropriate humility Appropriate modesty And culture If one person starts praising And other person starts getting Bloated up, puffed up Accepting all the praise Then it just becomes It seems like flattery and it seems Distasteful But when one person praises and the other person Rather than accepting the praise respects Rather than getting Getting Puffed up by the praise That person actually Accepts Responds humbly Then it is very Very pleasing that reciprocation Becomes very pleasing And that's what we will see that Vinaya Vachan Chaitanya Mahaprabhu Speaks very humbly In response And what he speaks we will discuss in our next session.
