\"srsm\"<\/a>Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja<\/p>\n

[This year, 2014, the disappearance day of Sri Srimad Sri Rupa Siddhanti Maharaja is on September 14th (in America). He is one of the prominent disciples of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur Prabhupada. In honor of this sacred day, we present a discourse in his honor, given by Srila Gurudeva, Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Narayan Goswami Maharja (given on his appearance day, on November 9th of 2002 in Varsana, India).]<\/p>\n

Today is a very auspicious day. It is the appearance day of param-pujyapada nitya-lila-pravis\u1e6da om visnupada Srila Bhakti Sri Rupa Siddhanti Gosvami Maharaja. He was born and brought up in East Bengal. He was a learned scholar and a good writer. When he first came to Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, he saw that all the brahmacaris in the temple were very learned, and he thought, \u201cI am not learned, so I should return to my home. There I will study Sanskrit, law, and other subjects, and then I will join and serve Srila Prabhupada.\u201d<\/p>\n

He returned home and began to study law; but our Guru Maharaja, his elder god-brother and also like his father, went to his home and inspired him, \u201cOh, what will law do for you? Law cannot give you love and affection. At once return to the matha and study love and affection under the guidance of Srila Prabhupada. You are wasting so much time, and perhaps you will die in the meantime. Please come at once.\u201d By the inspiration of our Gurudeva, he returned to the matha.<\/p>\n

The name given to him by Srila Prabhupada was Bhakti Siddha-svarupa brahmacari, meaning \u201cthe personification of perfected bhakti.\u201d Srila Prabhupada selected a very good name him.<\/p>\n

Bhakti Siddha-svarupa brahmacari was so bold \u2013 very, very bold. He once went to preach in East Bengal, in Dhaka, with pujyapada Nemi Maharaja. Nemi Maharaja was an extremely learned person and an excellent scholar. Srila Prabhupada used to send him to learned circles. He inspired all audiences to laugh and weep, and he inspired all by his scholarship. Nemi Maharaja was giving class there in Dhaka, and because Siddha-svarupa brahmcari was a good speaker, he called out to him, “Oh, Siddha-svarupa brahmacari, please speak something.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bhakti Siddha-svarupa brahmacari began to speak boldly, saying that, \u201cVivekananda is not vivekananda (meaning \u201cone who has knowledge and a sense of discrimination).\u201d In other words he saw the real meaning of the word in connection to that person and proclaimed, \u201cVivekananda has no knowledge at all. Vivekananda went to Western countries like America and gave a class on zero, saying that the world is zero. In other words, he was speaking Buddhist and mayavada philosophy. So he is Vi-ve-ka-nan-da, not Vivekananda.\u201d *[See endnote 1]<\/p>\n

He added that Rabindranath Tagore, who had received a nobel prize, was nothing more than a ramachagal, a goat with a long beard. He should be in the kitchen where people who are interested only in cooking and not in hearing elevated hari-katha will hear him, but those who want pure bhakti will not be able to do so. *[See endnote 2]<\/p>\n

Hearing this, the people in the audience became upset and left that assembly, and they turned against the Gaudiya Vaisnavas. Nemi Maharaja sent a telegram to Srila Prabhupada in Mayapura complaining that, \u201cMy whole preaching has been spoiled by this boy. Please call him back to you. I cannot preach here because no one is willing to listen anymore. All are against us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prabhupada at once answered in a telegram, “Oh, Siddha-svarupa brahmacari is very bold. He has preached what I personally wanted to tell. I am coming just now, and I will prove that he is correct. He has done billions of rupees worth of preaching here \u2013 not small scale at all. The right audience is attracted. Those who are sincere and know how to discriminate \u2013 they are attracted. I am very, very happy. I am coming immediately.\u201d Prabhupada then very soon came to Dhaka, where he called the entire assembly. He proved that the words of Siddha-svarupa were true to the highest extent, and everyone became very inspired.<\/p>\n

Siddha-svarupa brahmcari had great regard for his god-brothers, and in fact he used to refer to my Gurudeva as his siksa-guru. Gurudeva and he sometimes went to markets together with him to collect vegetables. At that time our Gau\u1e0diya Ma\u1e6dha was very poor. The devotees used to take spinach and a few other varieties of bhoga, but they had no rice at that time. It wasn\u2019t until Bhakti Saranga Gosvami Maharaja came that everything changed.<\/p>\n

Siddha-svarupa brahmacari used to go to Howrah market, very nearby to the train station, two or three miles from Ulta Danga. He and Guru Maharaja would collect vegetables and put them in two big bags, one being heavier than the other. Siddha-svarupa prabhu used to run after the heavy one. My Gurudeva also used to run after that one, saying, \u201cI will take the bigger one,\u201d and he would say, \u201cNo, I will take the bigger one.\u201d Guru Maharaja told him, \u201cWhy should you take it?\u201d \u201cYou are my senior, so I must take it.\u201d Guru Maharaja replied, \u201cI am elder than you; I am stronger, so I should take it.\u201d Thus they quarrelled like this — a prema-kalaha, or loving quarrel.<\/p>\n

Nowadays we see the opposite. Now, what to say of god-brothers, even the relation between disciples and Gurudeva has been changed. Gurudeva now has to see, and to fulfil, all the desires of his disciples, otherwise the disciples may leave him. Gurudeva is serving according to the wish and desire of his disciples, while the disciples don\u2019t care for Gurudeva. Nowadays they don’t think about the desire of Gurudeva, but at the time of Prabhupada the only thought was, \u201cHow to serve Gurudeva.\u201d<\/p>\n

They used to keep their lives in their hands for their gurudeva, as my gurudeva did for Srila Prabhupada at the time of Navadvipa parikrama. At that time disciples did not quarrel among themselves, whereas nowadays we see the opposite. A guru has to be very careful that, \u201cHow can I fulfil all the desires of my disciples so that they may not give up Bhakti?\u201d<\/p>\n

I see and realize this. Very few disciples want to offer their lives and souls for Gurudeva; one can count their names on one’s fingers. So, I request you all to follow your Gurudeva, the other disciples of Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, and Sri Srimad Bhakti Sri Rupa Siddhanti Gosvami Maharaja.<\/p>\n

Follow parama-pujyapada Srila Bhaktivedanta Svami Maharaja. He risked his life and went by boat to America. He was very ill, performing an illness pastime, but he was not concerned with this. Rather, he was praying to Krsna, \u201cWhat service can I do for You there?\u201d<\/p>\n

So many of Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Sarasvati Thakura’s disciples were like that. This was Srila Bhakti Sri Rupa Siddhanti Gosvami Maharaja, a perfect example of disciple. He did what his Prabhupada wanted, and what my Gurudeva wanted.<\/p>\n

He wrote a commentary on Srimad-Bhagavatam, establishing the link between Srimad-Bhagavatam and Brahma-sutra. He also published two Bhagavad-gitas \u2013 one with the commentary of Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti \u1e6chakura compiled by Srila Bharati Maharaja, and the second with the commentary of Srila Baladeva Vidyabhusana. Also, Sri Isopanisad and the books of Srila Vi\u015bvanatha Cakravarti \u1e6chakura: Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu-bindu, Ujjvala-nilamani Kirana and Brhad-Bhagavatamrta Kana.\u201d<\/p>\n

Srila Sri Rupa Siddhanti Maharaja was also a very strong ruler, so bold to speak the truth. He was a good controller and manager too. He was also a kavi, or poet. He had all good qualities.<\/p>\n

I am giving puspanjali in the lotus feet of Srila Bhakti Sri Rupa Siddhanti Gosvami Maharaja. I pray that he should be pleased to give us his causeless mercy — that we can follow his footprints.<\/p>\n

I want to say that Rasananda brahmacari [now Sripada Sridhara Maharaja, the disciple of Srila Sri Rupa Siddhanti Maharaja] has spoken very excellently about his Gurudeva. Now we must go to parikrama, and upon returning, Ramacandra prabhu or someone else will translate the Hindi into English so that all can benefit.<\/p>\n

Also, I want to give my blessings to Janardana prabhu [now Sripada Sagar Maharaja] of Venezuela. He has translated five of my books: \u201cAcarya Kesari Sri Srimad Bhakti Prajnana Kesava Gosvami \u2013 His Life and Teachings,\u201d with all siddhanta; \u201cTrue Conception of Guru-tattva,\u201d \u201cSecret Truths of the Bhagavatam,\u201d \u201cUpadesamrta\u201d of Srila Rupa Gosvami, and \u201cHappiness in a Fool’s Paradise.\u201d I am giving my blessings to him. Now he is going to translate our edition of Bhagavad-gita and many other books. My heartly blessings to him that in the future he may produce more publications. Vrndavanesvari devi dasi from Spain and Durlabha prabhu from Mexico City have also helped so much. My thanks to you.<\/p>\n

*Endnote 1: (excerpts from the books, lectures, and conversations of parama-pujyapada Sri Srimad Bhaktivedanta Svami Maharaja, quoted from his Vedabase folio):<\/p>\n

Disciple: For Kierkegaard, the important thing is not so much what one chooses but that one makes the choice. Through choosing one discovers his own integrity.<\/p>\n

Srila Prabhupada: But it is not clear how a person can make the right decision. One man may choose to slaughter, and another man may choose to help others. Or a man may give charity to others and yet at the same time encourage killing animals. For instance, on the one hand Vivekananda advocated feeding the poor, but on the other hand he suggested feeding them with Mother Kali\u2019s prasadam\u2014the flesh of bulls. So what kind of ethics is that? What is the value of ethics if it is based on imperfect knowledge? (\u201cBeyond Illusion and Doubt\u201d)<\/p>\n

There is no difficulty. Simply one must be sincere, not sinful. But a sinful man cannot understand Him. The sinful man, he will say, “Oh, Krsna is also man. I am also man. Why I am not God? He is simply God? No, I am also. I am God. You are God, you are God, every God.” Just like Vivekananda said, \u201cWhy you are searching after God? Don’t you see so many gods are loitering in the street?\u201d You see. This is his God realization. This is his God realization. And he became a big man: “Oh, he is seeing everyone God.”<\/p>\n

This foolishness, this rascaldom, is going on all over the world. One does not know what is God, what is power of God, what is meant by God. They are accepting some rascal as God. (London: July 17, 1973)<\/p>\n

I have read one speech, Chicago speech by late Vivekananda Swami. He’s talking to the audience that “You work so hard, why you give credit to God?” (LA: Dec. 16, 1968)<\/p>\n

Now we are speaking of Krsna and the Supreme Person. Mattah parataram nanyat [Bg. 7.7]. So there is no need of Vivekananda. When the Supreme Person is speaking, accepted by all. In the Bhagavad-gita it is said that \u201cYou are accepted by authorities.\u201d Vyasa, Devala, Asita, Narada. We have to accept authority who is accepted by authorities. Vyasadeva, Narada, Devala, Asita, Ramanujacarya, Madhvacarya, Caitanya, even Sankaracarya\u2014they have accepted Krsna as the supreme authority. You take the authorities statement. Don’t go elsewhere. Then you’ll be misled. When the supreme authority is speaking, take it and apply it in life. You’ll be happy. Hare Krsna. (India: Aug. 17, 1976)<\/p>\n

Therefore sometimes we find that although they say it [the world] is mithya [false], jagan mithya, and take sannyasa and for some days they remain meditation or aloof from any worldly affairs, but later on, when they do not find Brahman, they come again to this m\u00e4y\u00e4 to open hospitals, schools, as sannyasi. Just like in our country there are many. The beginning we see that… Vivekananda Swami, he took sannyasa and meditation. Later on, after his touring in the Western countries, he came to India to open hospitals, schools, like that. But if the world is false, then why you are coming to open school and hospitals? (SA: Oct 18, 1975)<\/p>\n

Hayagriva dasa: For Kierkegaard, the important thing is not so much what one chooses, but how one makes the choice. Through choosing one discovers his own integrity.<\/p>\n

Srila Prabhupada: But it is not clear how a person can make the right decision. One man may choose to slaughter, and another man may choose to help others. Or a man may give charity to others and yet at the same time encourage killing animals. For instance, on the one hand Vivekananda was advocating feeding the poor, but on the other hand he was suggesting feeding them with Mother Kali’s prasada\u2014the flesh of bulls. So what kind of ethics is that? What is the value of ethics if it is based on imperfect knowledge? (Back To Godhead Magazine)<\/p>\n

*Endnote 2 (excerpts from his lectures and conversations, quoted from his Vedabase folio):<\/p>\n

Bhaktijana: Is he a nice poet?<\/p>\n

Prabhupada: He is nice poet from materialistic point of view. That’s all. To satisfy the materialistic person. He is not a nice poet from spiritualistic point of view. We have nothing to do with him. (chuckles) We have to do with the poet like Vyasadeva. Don’t you see how nicely he has written Srimad-Bhagavatam? There is no comparison, even from the literary point of view. He is perfect poet. (NY: Oct 26, 1966)<\/p>\n

Prabhupada: Because they have no conception of Godhead. Nirakara [the conception of a formless, qualitiless God]. So nirakara, where is the loving affairs with nirakara? I cannot love the air. If I want to love, if somebody says, \u201cYou love this air, nirakara,\u201d oh, where is my love? Love must be there. Just like here we have got Krsna. We can love. We cannot love this sky. So they have no conception of God; therefore their love of God is all fictitious. Just like Rabindranath Tagore, he has written Gitanjali, \u201cTumi.\u201d Who is that tumi, he does not know. All the poetry’s \u201ctumi, tomara,\u201d and who is that rascal, tumi or tomara? But that he does not know. This is going on. Now if I say, \u201cMy husband, tumi,\u201d I know, he’s my husband. Or his form is like that. Then I can say. But he does not know who is that tumi. Everyone… The impersonalists will pray, tam eva mata tam eva pita. But who is that mata, who is that pita? That he does not know. We say, \u201cHere is your mata, pita, Krsna. Here is Krsna.\u201d That is tangible. Fact. Not fictitious. (Calcutta: Jan. 29, 1973)<\/p>\n

Rabindranath became very popular on account of his introducing Maghmela, where young boys and girls could easily meet. (Delhi: Nov, 29 1975)<\/p>\n

Gopala Krsna: How do you feel about Rabindranath Tagore, the poet?<\/p>\n

Prabhupada: (laughs) So you want my right answer? The answer is that anyone who has no Krsna consciousness, he has no good qualification. Or he’s a fool, in simple word. So we have to test whether one has got Krsna consciousness or God consciousness. If one has no God consciousness, then according to Bhagavata: harav abhaktasya kuto mahad-guna [SB 5.18.12]. Those who are not Krsna conscious, they cannot have any good qualification. Why? Manorathena asato dhavato bahih. Because they are, they have no God consciousness means they do not know what is God; therefore their consciousness is either on the bodily platform or mental platform or intellectual platform. God consciousness is on the spiritual platform. (NY: July 28, 1971)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
