ALL
OF US SHOULD
HEAR PRABHUPADA
|
 |
|
We
must admit that we have realized definitely that the divine message
from his holy lips is the congenial thing for suffering humanity. All
of us should hear him patiently. If we listen to the transcendental
sound without unnecessary opposition, he will surely have mercy upon
us. The Acarya's Message is to take us back to our original home, back
to God. Let me repeat, therefore, that we should hear him patiently,
follow him in the measure of our conviction, and bow down at his lotus
feet for releasing us from our present causeless unwillingness for serving
the Absolute and all souls.
(Srila Prabhupada's
Vyasa Puja offering, 1936)

|
 |
YOU
GO TO A PROPER PERSON, GURU,
AND

|
 |
HEARING
MUST BE FROM SADHU,
FROM DEVOTEE,
FROM
THE LIPS OF THE DEVOTEE.
|
 |
THE
PURPORT IS,
DON'T
BECOME OVER INTELLIGENT.
JUST
HEAR FROM THE SELF REALIZED SOUL
|
 |
HEARING THE
RECITATION
OF A
PURE DEVOTEE
|
 |

THAT WILL EFFECT.

 |
THE
POTENT WORDS
OF SUCH REALIZED SOULS
PENETRATE
THE HEART

A
DEVOTEE WHO SINCERELY HEARS
ABOUT
HIM FROM THE REALIZED SOUL,
HE
CAN CONQUER EVEN AJITA, KRSNA.
|
 |

TRY TO SEE
A
SAINTLY PERSON BY YOUR EYES.
YOU
SEE A SAINTLY PERSON
BY
THE EAR.
|
 |
THE DUTY OF THE SANE |
 |
UNLESS
ONE HEARS
FROM
THE BONA FIDE ACARYA

HE
SPEAKS PERFECTLY
|
 |
BY
THE ASSOCIATION
WITH
PURE DEVOTEE
HE
BECOMES STRONGEST
|
 |
ELIMINATING ALL OUR DIFFERENCES |
 |
WHEN

 |
RISING
ABOVE
THE
BODILY CONCEPTION

SO
THEY ARE SACRIFICING
THEIR
EVERTHING FOR ME. WHY?
SIMPLY
BY HEARING ME. THAT’S ALL.
|
 |
HEARING
OUR WAY CLEAR
TO
VARNASRAMA
|
 |
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS |
 |
HEARING IS BETTER RECEPTION |
 |
IF
ONE GIVES AURAL RECEPTION
TO
THE SOUND VIBRATED
BY
GREAT DEVOTEES AND ACARYAS,
THAT
ALONE WILL GIVE HIM RELIEF
FROM
ALL MATERIAL CONTAMINATION.
