720525SB-LOS ANGELES - May 25, 1972 - 26:54 Minutes

Prabhupāda: (prema-dhvani) Thank you very much. (devotees offer obeisances) Hmm. So, where is Pradyumna?

Devotee: He's typing.

Prabhupāda: Why? One śloka. Yes, you can . . . anyone can chant.

(japa) (pause) One verse.

Pradyumna: (leads chanting)

dharmārtha uttama-ślokaṁ

tantuḥ tanvan pitṟn yajet

rakṣā-kāmaḥ puṇya-janān

ojas-kāmo marud-gaṇān

(SB 2.3.8)

Prabhupāda: Where are those books? These small books?

(pause) My spectacle? Nobody's here?

Devotee: . . . (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: Where is Nanda-kumāra? Sleeping? As soon as there is opportunity, sleep. (laughter)

(break) (japa)

Nidrāhāra-vihārakādi-vijitau. One has to conquer over sleeping, eating and sense enjoyment. Nidrā, nidrā means sleeping. Āhāra means eating or collecting more. Collecting. Eating, sleeping and vihāra, sense gratification. Vijitau: the Gosvāmīs, they conquered over that.

Śyāmasundara: He said he's making kacaurīs right now.

Prabhupāda: Hmm.

rājya-kāmo manūn devān

nirṛtiṁ tv abhicaran yajet

kāma-kāmo yajet som . . .

(SB 2.3.9)

No, not this. (leads chanting) (devotees repeat)

dharmārtha uttama-ślokam

tantuḥ tanvan pitṟn yajet

rakṣā-kāmaḥ puṇya-janān

ojas-kāmo marud-gaṇān

(SB 2.3.8)

Hmm. Repeat, repeat again.

Pradyumna: (leads chanting of śloka) (Prabhupāda and devotees repeat)

dharmārtha uttama-ślokam

tantuḥ tanvan pitṟn yajet

rakṣā-kāmaḥ puṇya-janān

ojas-kāmo marud-gaṇān

(SB 2.3.8)

Prabhupāda: Next, anybody? (devotee chants)

That's all right. So, word meaning?

Pradyumna: dharma-arthaḥ—for spiritual advancement; uttama-ślokam . . . er rājya-kāmaḥ—anyone desiring an empire or a kingdom . . .

Prabhupāda: No . . .

Pradyumna: . . . tantuḥ—for offspring; tanvan—and for their protection; pitṟn—the residents of the Pitṛloka; yajet—must worship; rakṣā-kāmaḥ—one who desires protection; puṇya-janān—pious persons; ojaḥ-kāmaḥ—one who desires strength should worship; marut-gaṇān—the demigods.

Translation: "One should worship Lord Viṣṇu or His devotee for spiritual advancement of knowledge, and for protection of heredity and advancement of the dynasty one should worship the different demigods."

Prabhupāda: Hmm. Other line is not translated? Hmm. Then?

Pradyumna: Purport?

Prabhupāda: Hm.

Pradyumna: Purport: "The path of religion entails making progress on the path of spiritual advancement, ultimately reviving the eternal relation with Lord Viṣṇu in His impersonal effulgence, localized Paramātmā feature and, ultimately, in His personal feature by spiritual advancement of knowledge. And one who wants to establish a good dynasty and be happy in the progress of temporary bodily relations should take shelter of the pitās and the demigods in other pious planets. Such different classes of worshipers of different demigods may ultimately reach the respective planets within the universe, but he who reaches the spiritual planets in the brahma-jyotir achieves the highest perfection."

Prabhupāda: That's all right. So, now . . . (devotees chant japa) (break)

Devotee: (indistinct) . . . water . . . (indistinct) . . . after every mantra I will chant oṁ apavitraḥ. (leads devotees in chanting)

oṁ apavitraḥ pavitro vā

sarvāvasthāṁ gato 'pi vā

yaḥ smaret puṇḍarīkākṣaṁ

sa bahyābhyantara-śuciḥ

śrī-viṣṇu śrī-viṣṇu śrī-viṣṇu

(Garuḍa Purāṇa)

Prabhupāda: The word is abhyantaram. The word is abhyantara. Abhyantara means inside. (japa)

Devotee: (leads devotees in chanting)

oṁ apavitraḥ pavitro vā

sarvāvasthāṁ gato 'pi vā

yaḥ smaret puṇḍarīkākṣaṁ

-Jayahari: So the translation to this mantra: "Unpurified or purified, or even having passed through all situations, one who remembers the lotus-eyed Supreme Personality of Godhead is cleansed without and within." So speaking from our own situation, we can understand that we've been brought up in a very degrading culture that right from the beginning is teaching propaganda how one must forget God. So Prabhupāda has so kindly given us a process to cleanse the mind. Ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam [[CC Antya 20.12]] . We want to clear our mind again so we can see things as they are. So this human form of life is very rare opportunity, and it is rare because out of so many species of life we have been given the opportunity to again remember God.
