Description: Caitanya Mahāprabhu got the real thing directly from the Kūrma Purāṇa. He took that and He had it copied; and then He came all the way back here to Madurai, specifically to assuage the anxiety of Rāmadāsa Vipra—his anxiety that Sītā had been stolen—and He showed him the original passage of the Kūrma Purāṇa, which definitively states what Mahāprabhu had concluded and had presented to Rāmadāsa Vipra. We can learn much from this. First of all, when there is genuine, spontaneous devotion in the heart of a devotee, Mahāprabhu is greatly appreciative; and in this case, He moved heaven and earth in order to assuage the spiritual anxiety of this pure devotee. What is also apparent from this pastime is that śāstra is of paramount importance; because Caitanya Mahāprabhu presented the truth of the situation, but He wasn’t satisfied until He got the original manuscript, had it copied, and brought it back to Rāmadāsa Vipra from the Kūrma Purāṇa to show him the proof. So, every system of knowledge has to have an ultimate proof, and it has to be knowledge that proves itself. It has to be self-luminous, self-evident. That is the śāstra. So, our movement, although it’s based on spontaneous devotional service—and you see that in this pastime—it’s also foundationally situated in śāstra at the same time. Otherwise, Caitanya Mahāprabhu could have just appreciated the sentiment of the brāhmaṇa and left it at that, but He walked hundreds of miles to and from, found the śāstra, and found it so important to bring the original leaf back. So, think how important it is for us that we have availability to the Bhagavad-gītā, to the entire Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, to the Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu, and Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta. I was berating the so-called "glory" of technology this morning, but the upside in yukta-vairāgya is that because of modern digital capabilities, we’re able to have all these śāstras at our fingertips. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #globalyouthretreat #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
