Sri Slokamritam
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this Sloka book is to help the devotees study, remember and meditate on slokas. Slokas are pathways to the spiritual world. Memorizing and meditating on slokas is an integral part of our sadhana-bhajana. Hearing and reciting them create spiritual impressions which help one to make progress in bhakti. The slokas of the Bhagavatam are not merely words on paper; they are all transcendental personalities, and each and every sloka has its own svarupa (personal form and nature). Slokas are conscious and, like the Hare Krsna maha-mantra, nourish our bhakti and are food for the soul. Therefore, one should not try to master the slokas as if they were a mundane object of knowledge. Rather, one should approach them with humility and affection, coupled with a mood of service, just as one would approach Sri Guru. When we develop a little affection for someone, we naturally become interestd in them and they become interested in us. It is a matter of relationship (sambandha). Similarly, As we pray to the slokas and meditate on them, we develop a relationship with them. As this relationship becomes deeper, the slokas gradually unfold and reveal ever-new realisations. They become familiar like dear friends, walk into our hearts and enrich our spirtiual life with a higher taste. ( Please note the chapters are not in order in enclosed PDF file, however, you can search for page numbers. A new file will be available in December 2010 ).

The sincere devotee who has a deep thirst to enter into the sweetness of the land of Vraja will find ambrosial nectar flowing through these pages.“Blessed is the land of Vraja, where the creator of the universe, Lord Brahma, dwells in the form of a mountain range in Varsana, to have the dust of the Divine Couple Sri Radha-Krsna’s lotus feet on the head: where the maintainer, Lord Visnu, has assumed the forms of Govardhana and Visnu-parvata: where the moon-crested Lord Siva has taken up residence as Nandisvara Hill in Nandagrama: and where Sri Uddhava, the best of Hari’s servants, lives as a blade of grass, a small shrub or a creeper on the bank of Kusuma-sarovara.” |

The Way of Love
|
|
|
|
The basic principle of the living condition is that we have a general propensity to love someone. No one can live without loving someone else. This propensity is present in every living being. Even an animal like a tiger has this loving propensity at least in a dormant stage, and it is certainly present in the human beings. The missing point, however, is where to repose our love so that everyone can become happy. At the present moment the human society teaches one to love his country or family or his personal self, but there is no information about where to repose the loving propensity so that everyone can become happy. |

Venu Gita
|
|
|
|
“The Song of Krsna’s Flute” is translated from the Hindi commentary of Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Maharaja reveals the depth of the commentaries of Srila Jiva Gosvami and Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura. The Srimad-Bhagavatam is the fully ripened, nectarian fruit of the desire tree of Vedic literature which comprises the entirety of Indian thought. Within Srimad-Bhagavatam, gopi-prema has been ascertained to be the ultimate objective. A few towering waves of gopi-prema can be seen from the Venu-gita portion of Srimad-Bhagavatam. Rasika bhaktas drown themselves in these waves and even lose all consciousness of their own bodies. Greed to be immersed in this nectarian ocean sprouts even in the hearts of the faithful devotees who are situated on the shore of this ocean. |
