Multiverse

"Infinite crores of macrocosms shine forth on the palm of Bhagavan Shree MahaVishnu Hand, like a large number of amalaka-fruits on the palm of a magician, engrossed in demonstrating his tricks. 

Infinite crores of macrocosms, along with their veils, swirl round and round, like a continuous chain of pots attached to a water-wheel (used for baling water), in each interspace between the hair-follicles of Bhagavan Shree MahaVishnu".

Winter

Winter has conquered Moscow in 1 day, because yesterday it was autumn weather without snow. Now it is -3 Celsius and everything is under snow blanket.  

Bulgur

I have boiled up bulgur for the first time yesterday. 

It is a very good alternative to rice, as the nutrition value of bulgur is

Shree Saubhagya Sampradaya - The Tradition of Sweet Happiness

The book written by Sanjukta Gupta (yes, the translator of "Shree Lakshmi-Tantra" in English). The Chapter III is brilliant, I will scan later.

I have finally found "Shree Vaishnava Upanishads" in Adyar edition in English (had only Sanskrit and Hindi versions before). I will upload tomorrow.

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: I was mad with emotions, when found this edition. 

The 1st part is Sanskrit Khanda, the 2nd - English translation (English translation is more than flawless by Dr K. C. Varadachari and Panditharaja D.T. Thathacharya, Shiromani, MOL). 

For me the Tikas of OM VishnuPad Vedanta Deshika Maha Acharya have resolved long-standing contradiction about "jiva in deep slumber returning to Brahman" (as you know this is one the statements of "Shree Vedanta-Sutra"). 

I did not understand this Siddhanta for quite a long time, but OM VishnuPad Vedanta Deshika Maha Acharya cites "Shree Chandogya-Upanishad", 8.3.2 and the English translation is so superb, that now I have totally imbibed this Siddhanta, cite from this Grantha:

English annotation by Vishnudut1926: I fell in love with this Agama, as Tantra it is very simple, but very impressive! The Bhakti and Sadhana Khandas are truly fascinating!

The parlance of "Shree Narada-PanchaRatra" is rather simple and the appeal is definitely to common Bhakti folk (apart from more intellectual and highbrow Orthodox "Shree PanchaRatra", for example, "Shree Lakshmi-Tantra").

Sometimes "Shree Narada-PanchaRatra" is confused with "Shree Narada-Purana", because from one point "Shree Narada-Purana" gets very Tantric twist and becomes fully fledged Vaishnava-Shakti-Tantra.

But please don't confuse. Let's compare in brief, please see the following graph (backup on box, dropbox, minus, skydrive):

Shree Hamsa-Vidya, Aishwarya of Bhagavan Shree Krishna, balabuddhi

Back to selected Verses of "Shree Bhagavata-Purana", Song 11, now Chapter 04. 

Verse 11.4.2 - Numerous Gunas of Bhagavan Shree Krishna

Very classic Pramana about the impossibility to count Numerous Gunas of Bhagavan Shree Krishna! This Pramana is repeated in all The Puranas. 

The "balabuddhi" phrase ("infantile mind") is

मुकुट

मुकुट (mukuTa) - very Beautiful Sanskrit word, meaning not only crown, but "diadem and tiara"

I loved the following article about Shree Sapta-Matrikas - https://meerahrt3m.wikispaces.com/The+Sapta+Matrikas

The Images of Shreemati Vaishnavi-Devi (Shreemati Lakshmi-Devi) and Shreemati MahEshwari-Devi are in rather graphic style, but very adorable. 

And Shreemati MahEshwari-Devi in a very Shani-influenced style: Violet Dress (The Colour of Shani and Shani connected with Bhagavan Shree Shiva, of course), Skulls and Damaru. Very Beautiful!

2) Vaishnavi: represents the power of the Preserver God Vishnu, She is described as sitting on the Garuda. She is also depicted as having Four or Six Arms. She holds a Conch, a Discus (Chakra), a Mace, and Lotus and Bow and Sword, or Two Arms are in Varada Mudra. She is known for Her Crown which is cylindrical and known as Kirita Mukuta.

3) Maheshvari: represents The Power of God of destruction Shiva. She is seen sitting on the bull Nandhi. She has Four or Six Arms. She has a white complexion, She has Three Eyes and holds a Trident, a Damaru, a Garland of beads, a Drinking Vessel, and Axe, and Antelope, or a Skull Bow, or a Serpent. Rather than a crown She wears a Silver Crescent Moon on a headdress of piled matted hair this is known as Jata Mukuta.

Ох, девчонки, я не поклонница длинных статей (блог обычно предполагает короткие посты, так как не книга, хахаха), но стала писать и получилось много! Тем не менее, я очень рекомендую ознакомиться с данной статьей, так как она о Самом Главном для нас - Сапфировом Муже, Любви и Супружестве!

Джива всё-таки Служанка или Супруга Кришны?

Cначала напишу причину по которой пишу эту статью. Шри Рамануджа-Сампрадая и Шри Гаудия-Сампрадая очень масштабно завязаны именно на Дасья-Расу, но,

Shree Ganesha-Ji about the literacy in Worship of Bhagavan Shree Hari

The passage itself reminds very much the

OM VishnuPad Sanatana Goswami about Nama-Sankirtana burning prarabdha-karma

This is the excerpt from "Shree Brihad-Bhagavatamrita", the crucial Grantha of Shree Gaudiya-Sampradaya. The question about burning prarabdha-karma is rather uncertain one, because some Vaishnava-Acharyas say, that prarabdha can be burnt instantly, in a flash, but some Acharyas say, that

Этот вопрос меня долго мучал, потому что Грантхи Гаудия-Сампрадайи переводят

English annotation by Vishnudut1926:I refer to The Glosses of OM VishnuPad Madhwa-Acharya very often, because OM VishnuPad Ramanuja-Acharya cites "Shree Chandogya-Upanishad" very often in His "Shree Bhashya". 

The Translation of S.C.Vasu is great as usually, the only drawback of the Book is the references to Christ (written by Basu for the unknown reason). 

But I suppose it is just a fad of early 19th century, as The Book was published in 1909 and some Books of the period suffer from such references. 

I used to find in libraries the Books of the same period with the same problem - Hinduism compared with Christianity, which is just futile, as Both Systems are extremely different.

Tatkratu nyaya from "Shree Chandogya-Upanishad" and The Sole Devotion to Krishna

Some time ago I stumbled across a remark about "tatkratu nyaya" in one of Vaishnava-Granthas (with losing bookmark to The Grantha afterwards, so I can't tell what Grantha it had been).

In brief: for Vaishnavas "tatkratu nyaya" means that Dhyana of a bhakta in this life will determine his state in the next life (or Moksha).

11.10.2015

Synopsis in English: I have gone through advanced Prapatti Rite today, asking speedified Moksha from Shreemati MahaLakshmi-Devi and Bhagavan Shree VenkatEshwara. Generally speaking, I have made shift - earlier Prapatti was auxiliary anga to Krishna-Bhakti for me, now it is vice-versa. So, if my blog is not updated it means I have been granted Moksha by Our Adored Dampatti (Shreemati Padmavati-Devi and Bhagavan Shree VenkatEshwara). 

Да, девчонки я переприняла сегодня Прапатти (более подробно о Прапатти здесь) у Шримати МахаЛакшми-Деви и Бхагавана Шри Венкатешвары. Теперь я запросила максимально убыстренную Мокшу (спасибо большое МахаЛакшмике, именно благодаря МахаЛакшмёнышу у нас в Шри Рамануджа-Сампрадае есть подобный вариант с мгновенным сжиганием кармы). 

В общем, пока принимала, разнылась перед МахаЛакшмикой, сказала, что мне стыдно за то, что я выросла у Неё такой младшей дурой и что никогда толком не поклонялась Ей, потому что все время думаю только о Кришне и о том, как стану Его служанкой. 

Госпожа МахаЛакшмика меня утешила, потому что с самого начала было ясно, что я именно даси Кришны и даси МахаЛакшмики/Радхики из меня просто никакая. Хотя во всех Сампрадаях есть девчонки, которые совмещают именно двойную Дасью (то есть являются служанками Радхики и Кришны одновременно). 

В общем, если мой блог вдруг затухнет, то я уже умерла и вовсю сосусь с Писёнышем (Верховным Господом Шри Кришной) на Голоке. 

Уникальность Шри Пурушоттама-Кшетры

Да, девчонки, Шри Пурушоттама-Кшетра (Орисса, Бхагаван Шри Джаганнатха) действительно уникальна  и дополнительно уникальность подтверждает то, что - это единственный случай в Пуранах, когда о Святом Месте рассказывает Шримати МахаЛакшми-Деви (когда в "Шри Сканда-Пуране" Яма задает Верховному Господу Шри Кришне вопрос о Шри Пурушоттама-Кшетре, то Господь Шри Вишну отстраняется и говорит: "МахаЛакшмика расскажет лучше" и дальше Госпожа МахаЛакшмика начинает петь Махатмью).
