Be attached and engaged to the principle of love. May 10, 2015 from Germany

My dear devotees. 

I prayed to the Lord of great love, the incomparable, the one who in this world allows us to know something about Him through His ambassadors of love. To them I offer my obeisance and thank you for allowing me to speak about them and these sacred subjects that bring you strength and power.

The path of love is the path from Vrindavan, the land of love. The place where there is nothing more important than being united to the Supreme to engage in His service. No matter where you are, or what the circumstances in which one finds oneself, poor health or surrounded by the beauty of nature. Even in moments of despair caused by the difficult material circumstances, we can always turn to Him, we can always open our hearts to Him so that it becomes satisfied and we become closer to Him. For Him we can make music and dance, since He comes from that world in which every word is a song of love and every movement a dance, to express our enthusiasm how appreciative we are for what we have received and how much we would like to convey this to all who are giving us the opportunity to do so. Vrindavan Vilasini, the highest sound from the high goddess of love, who gives Herself to Krishna every second and moment with complete disposition, leading all souls in this world who are suffering because of their eager desires, who with their materialistic inclinations can never be satisfied.

Oh What a blessing this sacred mother! The original cause of love, the most complete compliment of the Supreme who by His side represents and teaches the principle of love. And because we have emerged from Them, for us there is no greater desire to also be attached to this principle of love and engage in this principle of love for all that happens around us can receive the full blessing of the holy mercy.

The longing to share this with those who are filled with wishes and who simply do not know in what way they should direct their longing. What can I do so that they too can learn something about God's love? I pray

  
                                                            Hare Krishna Hare Krishna
                                                            Hare Krishna Hare Krishna
                                                            Hare Rama Hare Rama
                                                            Rama Rama Hare Hare.

Supreme Lord, please let me be an instrument of Your love. Supreme Lord, grant me this, the greatest desire of my heart, to stay connected to You through my words and desire, my way of acting, through everything related with myself and others please take me to You, for only by Your side is there the shelter where my heart really is home.

Where does one find oneself at home? In the place of which one no longer has to leave. Where one is present and can be occupied in such a way that the realization of all our greatest skills within our heart is included, where the expression of what is creatively in our hearts is manifested. This gratitude, this joy in communication, this kindness to all other living entities, which logically originates from You, the Supreme of all loving. But in your love, you gave us all free will so that we could also decide to live and give this love. This is the gift, and anyone who represents this gift no matter which language or transcendental mystical tradition, that's quite secondary. The important thing here is to develop this desire and be ready at all times to correct what you still need to correct , which is an obstacle to understand You, reach You, love You, and to convey to others about You.

You, the Divine Couple, the divine Radharani, the divine Krishna, together performed the pastimes of Vrindavan with all Their happiness and all Their desires, which are satisfied to be with his devotees. Yes, I want to go there. That is my desire and in my life this I desire to bring You wherever I am. For how much longer will it take to get there and share in pastimes with You? But be as it has to be, as You desire, please let me be an instrument of Your love. This is the only hope of my life that matters. All the love I have received from my parents, friends, brothers, spiritual brothers, farmers, mother nature, from the elements. All pleasant moments of our existence, were all gifts from You. Everything You have planned to the smallest detail so that it may happen as it has been. And that is why I am so confident that everything will happen as You wish, even if they are gaps of separation that affect us deeply.

Separation is an opportunity to be united to God in a higher and intense manner, because He is the one that awaits us,  He gives us the gift of life, He gives us the ability to love and without falling in love with Him, all our other cases of infatuation are not satisfactory, because they are temporary, and everything moves in different directions, but the fact is that our heart is always yearning for the center, the place where we all can find one another, the place in which we are engaged together with the goal to please Your desires and we help each other, we protect, encourage each other, give each other encouragement, just as those do who have love for everyone.

My dear mother, I long to give this message to Your heart so I'll tell you through this recording. Please accept it and call to  the Supreme Lord of love so that He always keeps us in His arms for it is there where our souls belong.

Jay Srila Prabhupada, my love to all mothers of the world.
Haribol.

Your always well wisher,

Sri Balarama Purnima 8/10/2014. From Bulgaria.

These two are one and the same identity. They differ only in form. Lord Balarama is the first bodily expansion of Krishna, and He assists in Lord Krishna's transcendental pastimes. (CC Adi 5.5.)

My dear devotees,

Please receive all my affection on this day of Sri Balaram Purnima. Today we are celebrating it in Bulgaria and then I will be traveling to Venezuela and Colombia, and stopping by Frankfurt to meet with Purushottama Prabhu and celebrate together.

  This Balaram Purnima day is pretty significant to me. I took sannyas three times in my life, the first time was in a dream I had with Srila Prabhupada, where he gave me the renounced order. The second time was on the day of Sri Balaram Purnima, when in 1978 I received the sannyas order of my spiritual brothers who were in charge of the mission of Srila Prabhupada in Brazil. Then in 1984, I had the opportunity to hear the beautiful sannyas mantra from the lotus lips of Srila Sridhar Maharaj and with this I had the fortune to receive the traditional order of sannyasa in the line of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur Prabhupada.

On this day, I pray for the protection of Sri Balaramji and I ask Him to give me permission to renew this contract of the heart. This is a great responsibility to represent Srimati Radharani, Sri Balaramji, Sri Nityananda Prabhu, my spiritual masters and all the Guru - parampara and the great spiritual family. To serve as a sannyasi is not the most important, but serving with love is. Anyways, the sannyasi ashram is so beautiful. It translates into the constant sacrifice of personal privacy to be always open to the needs of those who are seeking God.

The sannyasi ashram is quite severe, because with discipline you get the chance to serve. The sannyasi ashram is the gift of Srila Prabhupada to develop more dedicated service. People like sannyasis because they feel they can rely on them. It is really difficult to count on any person in this world, but someone who is trying to follow in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and constantly preaching, builds trust. It is a great fortune to have contact with those who are trying to establish places where you can practice spiritual life. Srila Prabhupada gave us this fortune to us, it is difficult to measure.

Today we can see that there are thousands of places that keep the doors open for the thirsty souls of truth so they can come and practice Krishna Consciousness. Therefore I am very grateful to the Vrinda family, especially the sannyasis and maharanis who have given much of their energy and love into the wonderful projects offered to the Lotus Feet of Srila Prabhupada. Srila Prabhupada used to quote the slogan of the Indian Railway System which was "The wheels have to keep moving".We can say that "The doors of the temples and the hearts of the devotees must remain open forever", because closed doors means there is no refuge for the souls who seek it.

On this day, 30 years after the origin of this beautiful spiritual Vrinda family and 36 years after I entered this ashram, I express my deepest appreciation for every day that I have received, for each person with whom I have had the opportunity to associate with and I pray for this to continue for the rest of my days in the spirit of fortunate and humble sankirtan devotees. When I first got to know the mission of Srila Prabhupada, I immediately went out to the streets of Europe to preach, there were many hard years. So, as a beggar of love, our sankirtan was begging people to acquire the books of Srila Prabhupada.

I pray to my spiritual master to let me keep doing it for the rest of my life. In my time of sankirtan I only worried about visiting different places to be able to offer the books of Srila Prabhupada to others. But at some point I began to emerge intense feelings of concern for the temples and devotees. I myself was surprised by these feelings. A few days after that, I was sent to Denmark to take over the temple there.
Everything Sri Krsna does is perfect. Our desire is that everyone really can know about Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and (hopefully) you can join this movement, because this union creates a wonderful fraternity where service becomes a real pleasure. Service to the devotees and their association bring us entirely closer to the Lotus Feet of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Dancing in the kirtan with devotees is the introduction to the rasa dance with Krishna in His transcendental abode. But for this we need the protection and mercy of Sri Nityananda Prabhu, the force that gives us Sri Balaram and the constant association with Vaishnavas so we can continue to dance well together eternally in sankirtan with Gurudeva Atulananda with Harijan Maharaja and all of you. The Sankirtan Movement is completely mystical and the constant inspiration of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the centerpiece. He is Srimati Radharani's appearance in a very hidden manner that is full of complete mercy.

My dears, on this day of Sri Balaram Purnima I wish you all that, independent of your capabilities and limitations, to always remain steadfast and constantly keep your faith and positive attitudes towards all. I also pray especially on this day to Srila BB Tirtha Maharaj, one of the star sannyasis that is a part of our Guru - parampara who is always showing us to follow the path of devotion to the last moment of our lives. Only by the mercy of the Vaishnavas those things are possible. And of course, what would the reason be to dance here if there were no eternal dance waiting for us in the spirit world? There is, and there we will go someday if the Vaishnavas are merciful to us. The whole universe is dancing and it is inviting us to dance with Krishna eternally.

That's the secret invitation of Sri Vrindavan that has become visible in Navadvip by the Grace of Sri Caitanya. And it will be expanded worldwide by the grace of Srila Prabhupada and all of you. For all of you, whether grihastas, children, brahmacaris, sannyasis, you are all representatives of Srila Prabhupada fulfilling their momentous duties. You are all representatives of this transcendental dance.

Again once more I pray to Sri Balarama so that all of you stay spiritually healthy and happy and that by His grace itself, we can stay under the shelter of the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada.
Jay Sri Balarama!
Jay Sri Nityananda Prabhu!

Your always well wisher,

The importance of Oida in our lives. 02/02/2014

Dear devotees,
Today I want to share a theme about the importance of Oida in our lives.

There is something called Eugenics philosophy. The eugenicist wants to create a human race that is the "best" race, they handled and viewed the human beings as an evolving race, then to quickly have many geniuses like Einstein, " nice " people, blue eyes, white, so then they had to study to eliminate negative influences, the Jews with the curved noses, or rather they were going to kill them to be safer. They are demoniacs. These are speculated symptoms that are allegedly showing different states of traumatized behaviors and then comes the drugs that try to invent calming drugs to relieve such symptoms. But a psychologist can not give drugs, only psychiatrists, therefore the psychologists study in a more gentle manner :

 "Hello, how are you? Bad? Come here sit on the couch we're going to find a solution, yes, yes, yes. "
Then the psychologist appears as very kind but in actuality it is the prelude to give you drugs that only a psychiatrist can give you. They all sleep under the same blanket, they are atheists using the discomfort and sadness, because the first point of discomfort is to forget that you are a spiritual soul, because you try to be happy without taking into account that you are a spiritual soul, that is wrong.

The purpose of treatment of Oida Therapy is to regain the beauty of faith, the right to have convictions, ideals. You make payments to feel repentance, thankful . One of the best therapies is to give applause to God. Appreciation through applause to God is a tremendous therapy. It's very nice to applaud while sitting, but a true applause, in the material world there is something called a standing ovation, have you heard of it? When people continue applausing and are standing.

God must be given a standing ovation and that's  through dancing and sankirtana . Then you can explain to people what is Hairnam Sankirtan, it is not just a standing ovation, but a dance in applause to God. Amazing is not it? So can you explain why we do kirtan for hours, it is nothing but an applause for God and the therapy of harinam.

In the original Oida that is how it is done: an applause for God, a standing ovation to God and songs to glorify God but overall, not even Hare Krsna kirtan, Hare Krsna kirtan is introduced rapidly at times to the people and that isn't allowed in Oida. Therefore we sing: Pachamama jaya, Pachamama jayaya, Paramapurusha jaya ... as soon as you start with Sanskrit terms everyone likes, but in Oida Therapy we start with prayers, general music, " I only ask of God" as Mercedes Sosa sings.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gvyl_zdji2k&list=PL74d6P6gL5a0dAPjz9riZt5Jhp9eREehd

Then you can sing a song like that. It is a therapy that awakens in people a religiosity without specifying which stream to use for worship, but because they are glorifying God, it is perfectly acceptable. That's a tremendous preaching effort.

Then the standing ovation comes and as we stand at that moment, and we can hear one of these songs and then we are no longer left standing, we begin to dance, a dancing ovation . And that is called Oida Therapy .
All this will have a major impact, and Oida therapy works with the House of Wisdom, and the House performs healing through service and Oida Therapy means doing service. Oida therapy is not passive, it is completely active! And everything that has been done is monumental, but the effect has not been seen yet, because the theme has not been completely presented, it was fragmented, until now.

We may use the familiar constellations too, " OIDA constellations therapy," which first shows how we fail God when we fail our family, someone should always represent God and should be aware of how God views situations, because He is the well -wisher of all participants, equally, it is actually a very good idea, you have to have the experience, it is a very good idea.

What happens is that a man speaks of all the issues with the woman and the woman speaks all her issues with the man, and God speaks as the transparent medium with the content of Krsna consciousness.

"First you are not the false ego, that you think you are "
" ... And that everything should be as it seems. And although it is totally wrong, you have forgotten the essence of the divine mother which your wife is a representative of, and you abused her, treated her as a sexual object, forgetting that your children are sensitive and you fight with her in front of them .... "
 Rather, it gives a devastating message, that's powerful , right? You can make special songs for that.

- God forgive me, for all the bad treatment I gave to my family, God forgive me, for the abuse of the body you gave me, God forgive me for the bad treatment of animals, God forgive me for ignoring your presence in my life, I'm sorry and I want to always have you in my memory, I can not continue to forget you anymore because you are the Lord of my life.

- God forgive me for the bad words out of my mouth, God forgive me for my diverted thoughts of your will, God forgive me for not having looked to you with hope and living influenced by the material ambition, God forgive me  for unconsciously consuming, for polluting the earth with chemicals, God forgive me for being ignorant and not worrying, for not volunteering in educating and caring for my people, for such an unconscious life, God please guide me to serve you every moment, ... God allow me to serve you in all parts, you are present in the sun and the moon and the earth that nourishes us in a wonderful way, you are in the wind and water, purifying and refreshing me. God forgive me, for every bad treatment I gave to the water, in avoiding my own realization, being engrossed in novels and politics ... worshiping you through money and being so far from you, being in ignorance.

From this you can do more than 10 songs ... even as kirtan ... and so people can repeat :
God forgive me ... I've been in gnorance, God forgive me! , I have been cruel to those around me, God forgive my ignorance to my own children, God forgive me feeding them junk food, God forgive me for being glutinous and not waking up ... God forgive me for not having prayed from the heart, God forgive me for not seeing your beauty, God forgive me for eat without thanking you, God forgive me for forgetting that you are the center, God forgive me for forgetting that only in your worship everything is resolved, God forgive me my life is yours and I have ignored.

God forgive me, I wanted to enjoy but not receive, God forgive me, for the theft I've done, you have given me all the facility to serve you, and I am left with more debt because I took from others, God forgive me for ignoring the sensitivity of others, forgive me for always putting myself in the center and hold you to blame for my suffering, God forgive me I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, God forgive me, I can not live without you , so I ask you to reveal your will,

How I can always remember your mercy ? ...

Now let's meditate on the Lord of all souls, who loves me and loves you, because we are all brothers under His mercy.

Oh Divine Mother, Mother Nature, the most wanted, because you do everything perfectly that He has put in your divine projection. Oh divine mother, you are the cause of my body, but I 've ignored and mistreated my own body and I have abused my body with bad materialistic education. Oh God forgive me, you are male and female, mother and father, my unconditional well wisher, God forgive me, I'm yours from now on, I promise I'll will follow you as you let me follow my heart by Your will.

God forgive me, my life is pure joy, because when one is depending on you then there is no regret of anything. Oh my lord I thank you, I wanna dance for your name that You have revealed to this world so we can be close to You.

Oh Sri Krsna , and Dear Radha, Oh Sri Govinda, the most beloved Srimati Radharani,
Oh Kakusarankwa, you manifest as Atisenekan, Oh Lord of the universe, You come here in female form, giving birth to your appearance and bringing the pure devotees. Your presence is always here, you're so loving, and I've been so bad, cruel and diverted... how can I obtain your forgiveness, You alone my Lord with Your infinite goodness can heal my heart ...Oh Lord of the universe, your feminine energy is like a mother without limits, who has cared for us, has come to us, even in times when we misbehaved, who has never left us .

Lord of my heart , I am very sorry and I stand before You , I kneel always thinking of you the biggest importance there is in this creation, indeed, infinite space, infinite time, are just fragments of your divine opulence, one of your smiles or care are worth more than anyone can imagine.

Your flowers are your smile, your vegetables your laugh, your water is the unlimited mercy flowing from the highest levels to feed us all. What are we before Thee?

We are nothing more than your dear children and we can remember and serve You, we can create what You want, a healthy family, a sincere community ... We can become as you wish us to become, representatives who see everyone as your children. Parents who see their family as a reexamination in their devotion to You, brothers who are after Murari to protect their sisters from being mere sex objects of a depraved industry and  so much more ...

So here we will remain for the day..

 I leave you my affection
 Jay Srila Prabhupada!
Your always well wisher,
Swami B. A. Paramadvaiti swami .
