Sivaji

Siva Ratri 3rd Mar 2011


I have too many taped lectures to be able to re-format and upload them all at once. Considering which ones are already online I consider that it's possible that I have about one hundred that are not yet uploaded anywhere on the world wide web.

It'd be good if we could upload some of yours too. You may have some that you wish to share with the world of devotees. Please utilise our "Get in Touch" page to talk to me about it.


Later on if time is available to compile keywords we'll get the search function working and you can search by keyword or if you use Firefox, Ctrl+F will permit you to search any single page NOW, without a website search function by utilising Firefox's built in search function, which, incidentally, I think is more specific than most search functions.

Instructions

DOWNLOAD LECTURES: Right click on the Download Link and select "Save Link As" (or words to that effect)
LISTEN TO LECTURES: Simply left click the Download Link. Lecture should commence playing automatically on left click. You'll need your speakers turned on, of course.

There was another 20 min section at the front about Lord Nityananda which I will publish separately, later.

Quotes

Srimad Bhagavatam says:

  • It is said here, therefore, that such literatures should be discussed in the assembly of devotees. Unless they are discussed by devotees, such literatures cannot be relished by the higher class of men.
  •  
  • SB 2.3.14 purport
  •  
  • Seva - service, dedication, is the summum bonum of the teachings of the Vaisnava school, the third plane of life where every unit is a dedicating member in an organic whole. In such a normal adjustment, everyone mutually assists one another in their service to the centre, the higher recipient, the highest entity. Everything is existing to satisfy Him, because He must possess this qualification to be the Absolute. He is the prime cause of all causes - and everything exists for Him, to satisfy Him.
  •  
  • Swami BR Sridhar Maharaja (Sri Sri Prapanna-jivanamrtam, Preface pxvii)
  •  
  • Sri Bhagavan Himself has said to Sri Durvasa Rsi: "aham bhakta-paradhino hy asvatantra iva dvija - O brahmana, the sadhus, My topmost devotees, hold complete possession of My heart. Their love for me is so great that I accept their control. And because their heart is so infused with prema-rasa, I have no desire to leave it".
  •  
  • Srimad Bhagavatam 9.4.63
