Democratic country. Kaun kaun hindi main sunna chahta hai? (who wants to hear me in hindi?)
kaun kaun English main sunna chahta hai? (who wants to hear me in english?)
Hare krishna. So actually hum bhartiya hai, humari bhaasha kya honi chahiye? Hindi. Lekin
humm international society hai. Toh humko bharatiya nahi hona chahiye, humko international
hona chahiye. English. International International देश म नह रहना चाहि ए, हमेउसको केया कहना चाइए, भगव धाम वहा बगं ला भाषा म बात होता ह. Toh woh bhi sikhna chahiye. Kewal hindi seekhne chalega nahi.

Hare krishna. We are saying in bhagavad gita, srimad bhagavatam, what is the essence,
teachings, the essence of the teachings? We know "চতুঃর্শ্ল োর্শ্লকে ভাগবত, চতুঃর্শ্ল োর্শ্লকে গীতা, ত্রি শশ্ল োকে গীতা,
what does it mean? Why Trish Shloka? What is the importance here? Means within four verses,
everything is there. What is everything? What is everything? “Sambandha- Abhidheya and
Prayojana.” Everything is actually Prayojana. For Prayojana, For the goal, how to get that? and for getting the relationship? Here we'll see in bhagavad-gita 10th chapter:-

ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo
mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate
iti matvā bhajante māṁ
budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ
“Oh I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds; everything emanates from me. the voice
perfectly knows this, engage in my devotional service and worship me with all their hearts.”

So without knowing relationship, we cannot proceed. What is the goal of playing football? What
is the goal of playing football? to make a goal. Without making goal, what is the purpose of
playing football? not for exercise. Purpose of playing football is to make a goal. so that is the
goal. pray agent. So how to achieve that goal? how do they achieve that goal? huh? you have
to play. Without play, how can you make a goal? So play. Play is the process. And for play, what
do you need? Knowledge of the game. You have knowledge of the game, can you play football?
India Pakistan's final match? If you practice, can you get a chance in the national team? you are
in the stadium, some are the audience, some the referee, but you know your relationship. Which
team are you playing? Red jersey or Yellow jersey? you're helping people get jerseys, ‘i didn't
get jersey’, are you playing? people will kick you. So you know the relationship which team I am
playing. not only which team, in your team if you're a goalkeeper only you can touch, other
cannot. so before playing, you should know the relationship. I am not the referee. Referee can

stop us but I cannot stop it. So before playing, We should know our relationship. By knowing the
relationship before playing football, two teams referees introduce yeah “You are this, You are
this. What is doing?” Relationship. Start playing. Why are they playing? To make a goal. In
every square of Life why people are going to job? goal is? money. For getting the money at least
you have to work- one month and for working one month, what do you have to do? you should
get appointment letter, otherwise how will you work there? So appointment letter summon,
summon them with their pleasure. very very important in every square of life. “BhaktiVinoda
Thakur” wrote one book, "Dashama Mul Tatva" Mul Tatva means "Ten", what are the ten? There
he mentioned, "Praman & Prameya”. What is Praman? Evidence. Through evidence, what do
you want to prove? That is a Prameyo. The thing should be proved, that's called through
Praman that is called Prameyo. So what is praman what is Prameyo? What is Praman? Srimad
Bhagavatam 14:21-14:24. So Praman means shastra. Through shastra what should be proved?
Summon with pleasure. through scripture, scripture is giving these three things and here,
BhaktiVinoda Thakur has nicely mentioned. Here, Bhaktivinoda thakur is writing another book
named “updesh Kalyana Kalpataru.” Kalyana kalpatru, you can easily understand. Means?
Kalyan. Auspicious. Kalyan kalpataru is udvit. You know udvit? You don't know udvit? Sanskrit
udvid. Udvid means tree. So it has just three branches- updesh, uplabdhi, and Uchswash. The
first thing that you want? some updesh. advice. by getting advice what do you get? some
realization. after realizing what you get? Ecstasy. Toh in updesh section, Bhaktivinod Thakur has
nicely mentioned Sambandha- Abhidheya and Prayojana. That is more explained, more
elaborately explained by Srila Prabhupada in vrindavan bhajans in 27 songs. But here shortly,
we are reading from there.

“ore mana boli śuno tattwa-bibaraṇa”

Tattva Means? absolute truth. But tattwa means excellent knowledge. Tattwa means English
Theory. In science, tattwa means Theory, where it's knowledge. butt here, tattwa is absolute
knowledge. Absolute.

“ore mana boli śuno tattwa-bibaraṇa”

Oh mind, please listen. what is the purpose of life?

“jāhāra bismṛti-janya jībera bandhana”

it is so important because, by forgetting that we are entangled here. So just try to understand
how important it is, it just by forgetting that, we are interrupt. What is the tattva?

tattwa eka adwitīya atulya apāra
sei tattwa para-brahma sarba sārāt sāra”

Again I'm telling you, what will be here today is nothing new to us. because Prabhupada has
already given. Prabhupada is already given, you will not get anything new. but just we'll see how
nicely with the very few words bhaki vinod thakur has presented this one.

“tattwa eka adwitīya atulya apāra
sei tattwa para-brahma sarba sārāt sāra”

what is tattva? Tattva is adwitiya. What is adwitiya? Who has heard that tattva is adwitiya?
advayam - Nondual, "vadanti tat tattva-vidas tattvaṁ yaj jñānam advayam”. But? but people
think is three ways. he's right or wrong? though it is one, but people think in three ways, it is
right or wrong? who thinks in such way?”Tattva-Vidas”
Even intelligent person, though it is one, they think in three different ways.

Yad Jnanam Advayam

brahmeti paramātmeti
bhagavān iti śabdyate
Though it is one, but smelling is different, beauty is different, taste is different. but it is one.
vadanti tat tattva-vidas
tattvaṁ yaj jñānam advayam
tattwa eka adwitīya atulya apāra
