Hare Krishna, Welcome to the wonderful world of Krishna consciousness, the dimension of eternity, knowledge and bliss.

There are 16 participants in the conference.

Translation in Purport, by His Divine Grace, Shrila Prabhupada.

The great sage Narada said, My dear king, those 2, the man and the woman, supporting 1 another through mutual understanding, entered that city and enjoyed life for 100 years.

Puru Pura, 100 years is significant in this connection because every human being is given the concession to live up to a hundred years.

The span of life is different on different planets according to the planets distance from the sun.

In other words, 100 years on this planet is different from 100 years on another planet.

Lord Ramal lives for 100 years according to the time on Brahmaloka planet.

The 1 day of Brahma is equal to millions of years on this planet.

Similarly, The days on the heavenly planets are equal to 6 months on this planet.

On every planet, however, the span of life for a human being is roughly 100 years.

According to the lifespans on different planets, the standards of living also differ.

old because it is allowed to live 100 years in each life form.

depending on the distance from the sun, is different.

In other words, the 100 years of this planet is different from the 100

So, today here in Srivannam, how many people live to be a hundred?

I know in the US if somebody lives to be a hundred they put in the newspapers, oh so and so lived to be a hundred.

I think they have a word for it, centurion or something like that.

It's a special word, centurion, he lived to be a hundred years.

So why people aren't living to be a hundred?

know why they're not living to be a hundred?

That is called the influence of the age of Kali.

Just like in the US now we have mass shootings every day.

Somebody goes to a school, they start shooting kids.

They go to a church and start shooting everybody in the worship service.

You ask a little boy, do you think you are a boy or a girl?

I mean that's what's happening in the US right now.

are 13 years old be considered a grand old man.

At 13 a teenager is considered an old man.

So it's, what can I say, Kala Yuga, horrible age?

I have good news for all you Prabhus and Madajis and guests.

Just like during the period known as Ram Rajya, when the whole world was auspicious, there was no disease, There was no anxiety.

And even you didn't die unless you wanted to die.

You could live as long as you wanted to, you can imagine that.

If you wanted to live to be a thousand, you could live to be a thousand.

So that same atmosphere of Ramrajya, Srila Prabhupada has informed us, that same atmosphere can be manifested now through what method?

So just consider how fortunate we are, we've all been included into this Sankirtan movement.

The most auspicious blessing upon this planet, upon this universe, upon the entire material world.

So how do you actually become a potent member of this Sankirtan movement?

It's so potent that if even 1 devotee can chant the holy names of the Lord without any offense, by that 1 devotee the whole world will become Krishna conscious.

Everybody will be chanting and dancing in ecstasy.

All over India, all over Europe, All over America, all over Russia, all over China, they'll be chanting and dancing in extreme ecstasy.

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

So think about that when you chant your japa.

It's right there in Prabhupada's purport.

If a devotee can purely chant the names of the Lord without any offense, he becomes Jagadguru.

The brahmacharis, the grihasthas, not the grey medis though, they don't qualify.

The grihasthas, the vanaprasthas, the sannyasis, any, even a kid, if any devotee would chant, just think of Prahlad.

If even if 1 person in this movement can chant the holy names of the Lord without offense by his or her influence, the whole world will become inundated with Krishna bhakti.

So think about that when you're dancing in the kirtan.

Think about that when you say Hare Krishna to somebody.

We have an amazing, amazing mercy given to us by his divine grace Srila Prabhupada.

That each and every 1 of us can be instrumental in putting this Kali Yuga into a state of remission.

You may wonder, it's predicted the age of Kali is going to get worse.

Kalki avatar is going to come and By preaching?

How can Sankarshan Das say we can put the Kali in a state of remission, when it's already predicted Kalki is going to come and I know the rest goes.

Bhava explains, is something called the Chaitanya era.

We even calculate our calendars towards that.

It's either BC, AD, CE, the Chaitanya era.

We can calculate our calendars according to the time from Lord Caitanya's appearance as 2 CE, Caitanya era.

So Srila Prabhupada explains how this Caitanya era, It lasts for 10,000 years.

For 5,000 years, increasing, increasing, increasing, increasing.

Because we are 550 years into the Chaitanya era.

And which is going to get better and better and better.

This movement is going to grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, until it engulfs the entire material existence.

We get to be the representatives of that Chaitanya era.

Just imagine somebody, 1 of your friends, 1 of your housemates is having a nightmare, you see.

In the Brahmacharya ashram, 1 of the Brahmacharys is having a nightmare.

Or in your home, your wife is having a nightmare, your husband is having a nightmare, 1 of your kids is having a nightmare, what will you do?

So the whole world is having a big nightmare, you see.

The fourfold miseries, the threefold miseries, it's bad news Prabhus.

So 1 great representative of Dorje Tendulkar has come to wake us up.

He's come to wake us up from our nightmare.

And he told us, now the whole world is having a nightmare.

Jeep Jago, Jeep Jago, Gora Chandra Bole, wake them up, wake them up, wake them up.

So the whole world is waiting to be woken up.

Even the Jagais and Madais, the woman hunters, the rapists, the meat eaters, the cow killers, every single 1 of them wants to be awakened up.

So they dedicate their lives For waking up these fallen conditioned souls, will go down in history as the deliverers of the world.

So would you like to be 1 of those souls who are waking up the fallen souls?

Wake them up, wake them up, wake them up.

As I've said many times before, the more you give Krishna, the more you get Krishna.

And the more you get Krishna, the more you have Krishna, and the more you have Krishna, the more you can give Krishna.

The more that you give Krishna, the more you have Krishna.

So it just goes on expanding, expanding, expanding,

There's no end to how much you can have Krishna.

You just have to take up this activity of cultivating pure bhakti within your heart.

Driving away all the lust, the anger, the greed, the madness, the illusion and the envy.

All this lust, anger, greed is like stool in the toilet.

What do you do when there's stool in the toilet?

nice smell no, you flush it get rid of that damn stuff So that lust, anger, greed is a stool in the toilet.

You gave it all that stool, urine, lust, anger, madness and grief, then what do you have left?

Actually you are already Krishna's pure devotee.

You are 1 of his associates in his transcendental pastimes in the spiritual world.

So why are you cheating yourself by identifying with this bag of stolen urine?

transgender, stop misidentifying yourself

Identifying yourself and cheating yourself.

Come back, come back, come back to that place where

At the lotus feet of Sri Radha and Krishna, you will taste unbelievable, ever increasingly sweet nectar.

Turn on your identity as an eternal servant of

then you'll be blissing out in the transcendental ecstasy of prema bhakti.

So I'm going to ask you now if you have any questions.

Guru Maharaj Ji, you want to add some points?

Krishna Maharishi has said recently, I think, I think of that, I think it's not true.

Unlimited force and as you have mentioned that India is not as far as 1 becoming as Western countries.

The other day in the telephone we saw that same gender marriage.

Now, we can learn the Mleccha, Mleccha dash.

is not a Vaidya culture, but a culture of mental disorder.

This land is of the Dharma, should not be an Adharma.

So, people in India are following the Adharma, Rama Rajyoti.

Shri Lokdev, you raised the issue of preach.

However, I am not able to do it expertly.

Not just preaching, Shri Lokdev, anything that I am trying to do, there are so many errors.

So he wants to preach, but he cannot do it expertly.

The first time you got in the car, could you drive it expertly?

So, Just start off preaching in expertly.

They have a saying in English, practice makes perfect.

more you practice, the more you become expert.

So Prabhupada said, preach, preach, preach to the world.

Krishna within your heart will guide you and inspire you what to say.

Just like when I sat down to give this class, I was thinking what will I say.

It was an anxiety, I don't know what to say.
