Siddha means there is a Siddhaloka. The inhabitants of that planet, they are automatically yoga-siddhi. All the perfection of yogic principles are there, yoga siddha. There are different planets of different vibhutis. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anda-koti-kotisv asesa-vasudhadi-vibhuti-bhinnam [Bs. 5.40]. Every planet is differently exalted. And the more you go in the upper planetary systems, thousands and thousands of times better comfortable life than on this planet. I have several times explained. Vibhuti-bhinnam. All of them are differently situated. Not that all planets are of the same type. So there is a Siddhaloka. In that Siddhaloka, if anyone wants to go to another planet, he does not require any airplane or sputnik. He can go immediately. That is called Siddhaloka.

So ye sadhavah. Te deva-siddha-parigita-pavitra-gatha. Pavitra-gatha, varnita pavitra-katha. If they are discussed as Krsna's pastimes... Srnvatam sva-kathah krsnah punya-sravana-kirtanah [SB 1.2.17]. As Krsna's pastimes, Krsna's activities, are punya-sravana-kirtanah... If somebody hears and chants, if he does not understand even a farthing of it, still, he becomes pious. There is no need of understanding. Simply that holy sound will make his heart pure. Pavitra-gatha. This sound. Just like when kirtana is going on, an animal is standing. He does not understand what is the meaning of that kirtana, but that sound will purify him. There are many insects within this room, many small creatures, ants, mosquitos, flies. Simply by hearing this holy name, transcendental vibration, they will be purified. Pavitra-gatha. As soon as you discuss dealings of Krsna with the gopis... Because Krsna's pastimes means there must be the other party. And what is that other party? That is devotee. Dealings. There is a proverb like that. Some foolish persons were speaking that "This year I have seen many boys were married." What does it mean? Many boys are married means there must be many girls also. Otherwise, how he's married? Similarly, Krsna's pastimes means there must be devotees; otherwise, with whom Krsna will play? Krsna does not play with any other one unless they are devotees. Sadhavo hrdayam mahyam. As a devotee is always absorbed in thought of Krsna, similarly, Krsna is always absorbed in thought of His devotees.

The gopis... Krsna became absent from Vrndavana, so their mind was always absorbed in the thought of Krsna. When Krsna was present in Vrndavana, that time also. When Krsna used to go the forest, the gopis were thinking of Krsna always: "Oh, how Krsna is walking on the rough field. There are so many stone chips. Krsna's feet is so soft. How He is feeling?" And feeling this, they were crying. That was the gopis. So therefore, as Krsna and Krsna's thought, they are absolute, there is no difference... Therefore it is said Krsna never goes a step forward from Vrndavana because gopis have captured them. Krsna cannot go out of Vrndavana on account of gopis always thinking of Him. The gopis will never cease to think of Krsna; therefore it is not possible for Krsna to go out of Vrndavana, although physically He may not be present. He has no difference between physical or mental, or subtle or gross. He has no such difference. Krsna is absolute any way. Similarly, if you also think of Krsna, if you are also pure devotee, then Krsna is always with you. That is the advantage. Otherwise, how Krsna says, yoginam api sarvesam mad-gatena [Bg. 6.47]? The topmost yogi: those who are always thinking of Krsna. Pavitra-gatha.

Te deva-siddha-parigita-pavitra-gatha ye sadhavah samadrso bhagavat-prapannah. Bhagavat-prapannah sadhavah. Sadhus, sadhavah, bahuvacana, plural number. So only the bhagavat-prapannah sadhus, not others. Sadhur eva sa mantavyah [Bg. 9.30]. Api cet suduracarah. Sadhu, there is a word, sadhu, means "pious man." So pious man is he who is surrendered to Krsna, bhagavat-prapannah. They are sadhavah. Sadhavah sadhu-bhusanah. Sadhavah sadhu-bhusanah. Ajata-satravah... Suhrdah sarva-dehinam, titiksavah karunikah [SB 3.25.21]. These are the symptoms of sadhavah, sadhus. The first symptom is titiksavah, very tolerant. In any condition they'll go on thinking of Krsna, never mind what is happening externally. There may be so many dangerous things coming and going, but they cannot give up thinking of Krsna. Titiksavah. And karunikah. Karunikah means very compassionate. Just like Gosvamis. Nana-sastra-vicaranaika-nipunau sad-dharma-samsthapakau lokanam hita-karinau. The devotee's business is he's always thinking of how to do good to the people in general, how they will accept Krsna consciousness. Simply twenty-four hours thinking, making plan. Therefore karunikah. Although personally they are in so many inconveniencestolerating. But that planning, Krsna planning, is going on. Karunikah: how the people of the world will be happy. Titiksavah karunikah. Why they are planning like...? Suhrdah sarva-dehinam. They are not selfish, "Now I have become Krsna devotee. That's all right. Let others go to hell." No. They want to see that everyone becomes a devotee of Krsna. Therefore they are real friend. That is, he is real friend. Lokanam hita-karinau.

The Gosvamis, ideal. They left their comfortable position as ministers, went to Vrndavana, and became a mendicant. Kaupina-kanthasritau. Tyaktva turnam asesa-mandala-pati-srenim sada tucchavat. Because they were ministers, their associates, their friends, their companions were all rich men, aristocratic. Tyaktva turnam asesa-mandala-pati. Mandala-pati means "great leaders of aristocratic family." He gave up. Gosvamis, Rupa Gosvami, Sanatana Gosvami, they gave up this association of big aristocratic families. Tyaktva turnam asesa-mandala-pati-srenim sada tucchavat. Tucchavat means "There is no necessity. It is most insignificant. We don't want it." Tyaktva turnam asesa... Why you are standing? Huh?

So sadhavah, they are... Apparently, it appears that they are living in a very, in a poor condition. But they are very rich. Sadhavah. Sadhavah sadhu-bhusanah. These are the symptoms of sadhu.

So here it is said, ye sadhavah samadrsah. Samadrsah. Samadrsah means equally, equipoised. Not that "I shall simply serve this, my brothers or my community or my society or my nation or the human society." Nowadays there is a hobby. Just like Vivekananda: "daridra-narayana-seva," the human society, the poor men. And chaga-narayana, the goat narayana, they must be killed for this daridra-narayana-seva. This kind of discrimination of not for the sadhu. He's not a sadhu. Sadhu is equally disposed to all living entitiesnot only human society; animal society. In the material atmosphere... Because the material atmosphere is envious to one another. I am envious to you, you are envious to me. That is the position of the material world. So these so-called philanthropists or altruists, they take a section only, do good to them, but neglect others. Neglect others. Or others are enemies. But a sadhu is equipoised. He takes compassion for all kinds of living entities. Suhrdah sarva-dehinam. Ajata-satravah santah sadhavah sadhu-bhusanah. Ye sadhavah samadrso bhagavat-prapannah. So without being surrendered soul to Krsna, bhagavat-prapannah, there cannot be any sadhu and there cannot be any man equipoised to everyone. (short Hindi conversation with a woman) But these are the description of sadhu. Bhagavat-prapannah. Each and every word is so nice, perfect in Srimad-Bhagavatam, describing... Ye sadhavah. Sadhavah means those who are pious men. Who is a pious man? Samadrsah. Samadrsah, equipoised. And bhagavat-prapannah.

So therefore the conclusion is the same thing as we repeat several times: without being Krsna conscious, nobody can be a good man. That's all. We should not hate, that "Oh, he's not a good man; therefore we have to hate." No. That is not our business. No. But this is the conclusion. And because the world is full of no good men, therefore we have to preach. So we cannot hate, even he's not a good man. But this is a fact. One who is not a Krsna conscious person, he's not a good man. But our duty is preach. Because the world is full of no-good men, therefore we have to preach. Otherwise what is the use of preaching? Therefore we should not be envious, although a man is not good man. That is the time. Samadrsah. Just like Gosvamis. Krsnotkirtana-gana-nartana-parau premamrtambho-nidhi dhiradhira-jana-priyau. Dhira. Dhira means sober, and adhira means rascals. So dhiradhira-jana-priyau. They are priya, dear, both the rascals and good men because they were distributing Krsna consciousness. Just like Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Caitanya Mahaprabhu, just you saw in Benares. Not that all the men who joined the procession, they were all good men. From materialist's point of view... But this Caitanya Mahaprabhu is so kind, thousand of men joined Caitanya and they danced. Dhiradhira. Not that in the crowd only selected devotees were there. No. Most of them, ninety-nine percent all nondevotees. Similarly, in your country you have seen. That Caitanya Mahaprabhu statue attracted so many people in Berkeley.

Dhiradhira-jana-priyau. So Caitanya Mahaprabhu and His servant, they are dear both to the sober and rascals. Dhiradhira-jana-priyau. Because in their mind there is no such discrimination that "Here is a rascal. I shall not talk to him," or "Here is only good man. I shall talk to him." No. Nityananda Prabhu, He first of all selected, "Oh, here is Jagai-Madhai. All right, first..., My first business is with them," and delivered them. These are the examples. Sadhu. What is sadhu? Sadhu is not with a tilaka and in a secluded place chanting and not coming out and very, imitating Haridasa Thakura. And as soon as the throat is dry, "Oh, bidi. Give me bidi." You see? These imitations are going on. You see. Showing just like Haridasa Thakura, but chanting, chanting, the throat becomes dry, and immediately assistance of cigarette or bidi is required, or a ganja, (laughter) still more. What do you think, Muktananda? Is it not? Did you practice this?

So simply become Krsna devotee, your life is successful. That's all. You are well protected and you are very recognized. Your qualities, your everything becomes all transcendental, immediately. It is so nice. Krsna says, sarva-dharman parityajya mam [Bg. 18.66]. "I'll give you." That is... These are things are stated. Tan nopasidata harer gadayabhiguptan naisam vayam na ca vayah prabhavama dande. "They are not our candidates and neither we have got any power to punish them. Even he's in wrong, that is not our jurisdiction. That is Krsna's jurisdiction. Krsna will see to it what to do, even if he's wrong." That is called departmental punishment. That is Krsna's departmental punishment. Not outside. "Krsna may punish him or excuse him; that is Krsna's business, not ours." Therefore a devotee knows, when he's fully surrendered to Krsna, if there is some punishment from the side of Krsna, they accept it as mercy of Krsna. Tat te 'nukampam susamiksamanah [SB 10.14.8]. They have the eyes to see that "This is mercy of Krsna. Krsna has put me into some dangerous position. That is Krsna's mercy." And actually it is so. By a little inconvenience, immediately he's rectified.

So Yamaraja says, naisam vayam na ca vayah prabhavama dande. Atas tan nopasidata samipan api na gacchat.(?) Sridhara Svami says, "Do not try to go their vicinity even, what to speak of going directly before them. Where they are sitting, don't go hundreds of thousands years away's time." Vayah kalo 'pi na prabhavati. Then the Yamadutas can say that "We may not go, but the time factor will act on them." So that is also, "No. There is no question of time factor for them." Such are the facilities. Now, Yamaraja is a mahajana. We have to take his statement, how devotees are stated. Krsna says summarily that "I'll give you protection." And how they are protected you have to learn from the mahajana. Mahajano yena gatah sa panthah [Cc. Madhya 17.186]. Then next question will be: "Then what is our business? Where to go? Suppose they're all devotee?" Sometimes a rascal question is there, that "If everyone becomes devotee, how this world will go on?" That is their concern. If everyone becomes honest, how the prison house will go on? What is the use of prison house? If it is closed, that is good. Similarly, if the whole world becomes devotee and the business of the material world is closed for good, that is very good. But that will not happen. That is not possible.

So Yamaraja says, tan anayadhvam. Tan anayadhvam asato vimukhan mukunda-padaravinda-makaranda-rasad ajasram [SB 6.3.28]. "You simply approach to persons who are averse to the lotus feet of Mukunda, Krsna. One who does not relish the honey in the lotus feet..." Because in the lotus there is honey. So devotees, they take the honey at the lotus feet of Krsna... But how? What they are tasting? They are tasting: niskincanaih paramahamsa-kulair asangair justad grhe niraya-vartmani baddha-trsnan. Those who are not associating with pure devotees, niskincanaih. One who has no other business than to taste the honey at the lotus feet of Krsna... The persons who are not associating, that means those who are not becoming life members of Krsna conscious movement. (chuckles) Yamaraja is advising, "Go there." (laughter) "Go there." Why? Why? Justad grhe niraya-vartmani baddha-trsnan. They are staying at home, which is the path to hell, and they are absorbed in unlimited desires. Grhe. Grhe. Grhe means staying at home, not going out for canvassing for Krsna. Grhe niraya-vartmani. What is this grhe? Niraya means hell, and vartmani means path. Grhe means "the path of going to hell." That was also advised by Prahlada Maharaja. Grham andha-kupam. Tyaktva grham andha-kupam. Andha-kupam means blind well. I saw one blind well in Ascot when I was at... What is his name?

(reads commentary): Ke tarhi dandartham anaya tat praha tan iti darbhyam asatah.(?) Asatah, dustan. Asat means dustan, rogues. Asato dustan tan eva aha mukunda padaravindayoh.(?) How one can distinguish that he's a rogue? That's what I say, that rogue you can understand immediately: who is not Krsna conscious. He's a rogue. So tan evaha mukunda-padaravindayo marakanda-rupa-rasam tasmad vimukhan. Those who are averse to taste the honey in Krsna consciousness, they are rogues. They are rogues. And the Yamaraja is advising, "Go there. Bring them here, and I shall chastise them nicely." That is Yamaraja. Dustan tan eva aha mukunda-padaravindayo yo makaranda-rupa tasmad vimukhan. Katham bhutat? Niskincinair ajasram justad tesam jnapakam aha niraya-vartmani sva-dharma-sunye grhe baddha trsnad ye tan.(?) So what is their symptoms? Their symptoms we shall describe tomorrow. [break]

The advantages of Krsna consciousness. Yes. Mahajano yena gatah sa panthah [Cc. Madhya 17.186]. Yamaraja personally explains. He is mahajana. Anyone who is not Krsna conscious, he's a candidate for Yamaraja. [break] ...incarnations are as unlimited as there are waves in the sea. As there is no limit how may waves are there, similarly there is no limit of Krsna's incarnation. But some of the prominent incarnations connected with this world, they have been mentioned. Now this boy is advancing in Krsna consciousness by this method. So Kausalya has transferred Krsna consciousness to him?
