The Citta explained by Vaisnavapada Das Babaji

Posted on:

Citta – stores all samskaras compared to seeds, vasanas compared to trees, and the prakat compared to karma. Cleansing the citta – removes the samskaras, vasanas and karma. As we chant Hare Krishna mantra more and more, the atma separates from the body like a ripe coconut separates from the shell. Chanting and Bhakti detach our samskaras and vasanas from the citta. The soul tastes bhakti-rasa. Vaisnavapada Das Babaji

The form of Krishna – Vaisnavapada Das Babaji

Posted on:

Krishna is always in the Tribhanga form with his flute. He wears yellow clothes – Pitambara. He wears beautiful jewellery. He has a face like a million full moons with lotus eyes. Eyebrows like Rainbows. Body covered with both Chandan and Kasturi fragrances. Krishna has beautiful fragrances. Surrounded by thousands of peacocks with a Peacock feather on his crown. The red gem – Kaustubha gem – illuminates Krishna. Krishna is always talking and speaking about sastra. Krishna is always smiling. He is always singing and playing the flute.

The birth of Lord Krishna – Vaisnavapada Das Babaji

Posted on:

Lord Krishna took birth in Nandagram. Everything became auspicious and the weather became warm and summertime even though it was not summer yet and the flowers all bloomed after his birth. Mother Earth decorated itself for svayam bhagvan. The water, lakes, sea, sky – everything. The wind gave fragrances of roses and flowers. The clouds said my friend Syamsundara & Ghan-Syam is coming. Mother Yashoda gave birth to Lord Krishna in Gokul in the middle of the night. He was born in both, Mathura – Vasudev – 4 arm form (Aishvarya) and Gokul Vrindavan (Madhurya). Vaisnavapada Das Babaji
