In one warm welcome back again to our continued series on the glories of our

beloved Shriven dandan, as well as many of the chariots who have had their pastimes
there. Nama on Vishna Padiya Krishna pasta. But Le Srimati book given onto Samante
nominee Namaste Saraswati Dave Gravani Charine Vishesh Suniva Pasta Deshar name a
glorious to shephard. So today I would like to discuss the life and teachings of
another second generation Devoting who was instrumental in continuing the Sanata
movement of Lord Chatanya Mahaprabhu pretty much just after his departure.

Oh, several decades after his departure.

And that is the illustrious Rasino he's known as the foremost disciple of Sheen on
dependent. You remember that Rossi Cananda is the author of The shamonna stake,
which we quoted a few times when speaking about shamonna worrying Rossi Cananda
glorifies the spiritual master. And I chose to speak about Rossi Cananda today
because although he may be somewhat lesser known, he's certainly not less important
or less successful in his one preaching 450 years ago. And fortunately, one of his
own disciples, a Gopi John Apollo adus, wrote a biography about Rose Cananda in the
seventeenth century, and he entitled it Rosica mangala, and it opens up.

It begins with some very beautiful prayers to Rossi cananda, which I would like to
recite today before we move on.

So his disciple rights, the wicked age of Colly keeps one and then limited darkness
of ignorance. The devotees who endeavor to preach are the only persons who can
destroy it. Listening to the qualities of Krishna can surely help us to cross over
this material world. However, listening to the glorious qualities of a purity
voting helps one cross the three phases of time, past, present, and future, and
bestows upon one love of God. Give up all unnecessary occupations and listen to the
qualities of Rossi Cananda in this way eliminate the misery of material existence.

Rossi cananda, the crest jewel of vaishnavas, is our life and soul. Whoever
develops faith in hearing his glories will quickly attain the shelter of his Lotus
feet, the snakes in hell, the gods in heaven, and the wise people on Earth. All
hanker to listen to his glories, the snakes in hell, the gods in heaven and the
wise people on Earth. All, Hanker listen to his glories. So very beautiful
glorification of his guru, Rassi cananda.

So our Russian under appeared in this world in the year 15 90 in the town of Roni
Roni in South West bengal, exactly 56 years after Large Atanya had departed. And he
was the son of a very powerful samandar. Amanda means someone who owns a lot of
land because in media culture, when we understood one to be wealthy, depending not
just on how many coins they owned, but how much land in cows they have. So Russian.
And his father was a Zemindar landowner and his name was actenuda and russ,
Canada's mother was named botany.

And the specific reason for Rossi Cadenas appearance is given by our charges, who
say that at the time of his birth, much of the population of well, Bengal and
Harissa were engaged in sinful activities. In fact, people had lost all respect for
Brahmanas Invision loves. And it was common that Sodus or pilgrims were attacked
and robbed on their way to Holy places like Nova Deep in bengal, or Jugnauth Puri
in arista. And because of their sinful ways, people had no interest any longer in
hearing about Krishna or to speak about chanting his Holy names.

In fact, if people would hear a chanting party on the Street at the vice, novelist
were having hainan, people would rush towards them and beat the Curtains.

The singers and I was reading that whenever people saw a vision of us, they accuse
them of being beggars, and they would throw them out of their villages into the
wilderness. But in the book Russia mongalo, it's described how those Vaishnavas
took all of that abuse, all that harassment. And I'll quote, the Vice novels were
thinking as follows, quote, Oh lord, please bless these people who are attacking
them with a true understanding of your glories by bestowing upon them praying body
pure love for you. And we humbly request you to deliver us by sending a servant of
yours into our midst because we can no longer bear the suffering.

Very humble attitude of the Vice is praying that their accusers get pray inbox by
the mercy of the lord, but also asking for the Lord to send some special devote
into their midst because they could no longer bear this suffering.

So the charas say that, quote, Lord krishna, who is known as Buck devata, the lover
of his devotes, thereby obliged their request by sending his dear devoted rate
Cananda to deliver them. They go on to say, therefore, one should know that the
town of rainy, where Asian under appeared, is nondifferent from navidi, madavin,
mathura, and hayoja. They say all the places where Lord Christian resides are equal
to VA kunta, and the same is true whatever his devotees reside. And the same is
true wherever his devotes reside.

All places where Krishna resides are equal to VI quinta, and the same is true
wherever his devotees reside.

Pretty powerful statement.

When Russian undertook birth on that day that he took birth, there's a beautiful
description of what he looked like. Well, first of all, it's described that as soon
as he appeared from the womb of his mother, the whole entire house filled up with
his effulgens. But Here's a nice description of him. His moon like face was
decorated with the broad forehead. His nose looked very firm, and his eyes were
like that of the leaves of a Lotus.

He had finally shaped ears and a head for the black curly hair and his lips with
the color of a red Bimbo fruit. His shoulders were like that of an elephant, and
his hands were like the stalk of a Lotus. His fingers were decorated with nails
resembling Kunda flowers and his broad chest charmed the three worlds. This is a
baby. His naval was very beautiful.

The threefold curve of his waist was like that of a lion. His knees and ways were
beautifully shaped like a banana tree. And the marks on his Lotus feet were very
charming. His nails shone brightly and his complexion was a light bluish black. A
light bluish black.

In fact, if you see a painting of rosa, Cananda you'll notice? So we hit that
little tinge of bright bluish black like Krishna. And when Rosie and under turn six
months old, it was time for his unprecise ceremony on Apache ceremonies when the
child takes their first grains.
