Prabhupada: [chants word-for-word, as written, and devotees repeat in response]

etam,

[indistinct conversation, now only Siddha-svarupananda repeats]

etam, sasthaya, paratma, nistham, adhyasitam [indistinct] adhyasitam?

Siddha-svarupananda: adhyasitam

Prabhupada:

Now read this [indistinct].

Siddha-svarupananda: etam-this; samasthaya-taking shelter of; par ra...

Prabhupada: paratma-means the accepting this sannyasa order,

[break]... master accepting this order.

Siddha-svarupananda: paratma-the Supreme Personality of Godhead; nistham-means firm conviction.

Prabhupada: Firm conviction in the Supreme Personality of Godhead as he instructs: sarva-dharman parityajya mam ekam saranam vraja [Bg 18.66]. So after taking sannyasa there is no other business than to take shelter of Krsna's lotus feet. Go on.

Siddha-svarupananda: adhyasitam-means worship by; purva tamair-means by previous acaryas.

Prabhupada: So it is not a new thing most of the acaryas they accepted. Just like in the beginning all the four acaryas namely Ramanujacarya, Madhvacarya, Nimbarka, Visnu Svami, they accepted sannyasa and in that line Caitanya Mahaprabhu He accepted sannyasa. Then further down to my Guru Maharaja he accepted sannyasa, I have accepted sannyasa, so purvatamair mahadbhih [SB 11.23.57]. As previous acaryas accepted, so I am accepting also. Mahat eh?, paratma-nistham. Full faith for developing full faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead [indistinct]. Go on.

Siddha-svarupananda: mahadbhih-means great...

Prabhupada: mahadbhih, mahadbhih means great acaryas, previous guru's acaryas, yes?

Siddha-svarupananda: aham-myself; tarisyami-means, shall crossover.

Prabhupada: That's all, this material existence is very difficult to crossover but by accepting this sannyasa order, by preaching Krsna consciousness I shall also crossover the ocean of nescience.

Siddha-svarupananda: durat.

Prabhupada: duranta.

Siddha-svarupananda: duranta-param-insurmountable;

Prabhupada: Yes.

Siddha-svarupananda: tamo-the darkness of ignorance; mukundaṅghri-the lotus feet of Mukunda who gives all liberation's.

Prabhupada: Mukunda, muk means liberation and one who gives liberation as, transcendental bliss he is called Mukunda-Krsna. Go on.

Siddha-svarupananda: nise va yaiva.

Prabhupada: nisevayaiva.

Siddha-svarupananda: nisevayaiva.

Prabhupada: Simply by rendering service unto Him. Go on.
