The Special Deal

from The Bhakti Podcast · host Gauranga Sundara Dasa

Perfection after many birth of practice. Above the ritualistic principles of the scriptures. Attracted like an iron to a magnet. Pure bhakti defined. No sunlight, moonlight or electricity. The culmination of Bhagavad Gītā. Impersonal interpretations. The position and incredible mercy of Srila Prabhupada. Krishna established the parampara system at the beginning of creation. 24 hours connected with Krishna. Who can capture Krishna? Building alliances. Loving Krishna or exploiting His energies. Playing the part of a materialist. Everybody needs a guru, the jñani thinks otherwise. Stopping all karma. The special deal to stop birth and death. The escape of Raghunatha dasa. First guru, then Krishna. Krishna is guru’s property. Seva apardha discussed. 0:00:11 Talk0:02:31 What is pure bhakti?0:04:55 Deluded by impersonal interpretation0:10:10 The escalator of bhakti0:12:20 The parampara system0:17:16 Arjuna is representing all of us0:19:35 The peace mission0:21:56 Krishna sides with Arjuna0:25:38 We want Krishna0:35:05 What about karma if we are not the doer?0:40:28 The special deal0:43:20 I have created your pious credits0:49:28 Surrender to my devotee0:57:41 Our great fortune1:00:31 Krishna is the property of the pure devotee1:03:07 Spiritual emotions1:08:22 Karma and jñana must be aiming for bhakti1:09:51 Impediments to bhakti1:16:56 The priest, the lady and the goat
