On the way back to South Africa

Posted: 05 Dec 2011 07:37 PM PST

From the Panchakula Ratha Yatra, Kadamba Kanana Maharaja headed to the ISKCON temple in Dehli. On his way he gave a homeprogram at Patiala . He sang beautiful bhajanas and gave a lecture, establishing the supremacy of Krsna. After prasadam he again hit the road to Dehli.

Arriving there late, Maharaja still decided to take part in a program centered around book distribution at an auditorium in the temple area. He gave a short talk in Hindi and finished off by distributing around 50 of Srila Prabhupada’s Bhagavad Gitas, straight from the Vyasasana.

The next morning than, after taking part in the darsana arati, greeting the local deities called Sri Sri Radha-Partha Sarathi, Maharaja went off to catch his flight back to South Africa

Kadamba Kanana Swami Govinda Valley, 2011) Lecture – Caitanya-caritāmṛta

The vacuum inside of our heart – that empty feeling is still not filled. Still there is a need for more, no matter how much we are experiencing in this world. So Lord Caitanya in this way came to drive out that ignorance. He also came to drive out the impersonalist concept. The concept that our identity, our sense of self is false, and when we come to spiritual realization, then we can actually realize that we are not that…..that we are not this temporary material energy, but that we are eternal beings!

Kicked to a next destination

Kadamba Kanana Swami Govinda Valley, 2011) Lecture – Caitanya-caritāmṛta

Srila Prabhupada was speaking about football (lets say soccer and not football) and the point was that people were playing with that ball, and they considered themselves the players. So Prabhupada said:

"They think they are the players, when they are in actuality the ball".

So have we ever thought of ourselves as the ball in the game?

So Prabhupada said:

"As the player….. no everyone is the player in this world".

Playing somehow or other, manipulating, arranging ….trying to get a good result – we know what we're doing, but Srila Prabhupada said:

"No, in reality we are the ball and in any point in time we can be kicked. Kicked to a next destination!"
