### Summary of the Lecture: In this lecture, Śrīla Prabhupāda emphasizes the nature of divine incarnations, the distinction between demigods and demons, and the importance of recognizing Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He discusses how the Lord incarnates to protect devotees and restore dharma whenever there is a disturbance caused by demonic activities. --- ### Key Teachings: 1. **Kṛṣṇa as the Original Godhead**: - Unlike other incarnations who are plenary portions or portions of the plenary portions, Kṛṣṇa is the original Supreme Personality of Godhead. - His divine mission is to protect theists, destroy the atheists, and reestablish dharma (righteousness). 2. **God’s Ownership of the Universe**: - Everything in the material world belongs to Kṛṣṇa, even if people deny His existence. - Denying God’s authority is likened to prisoners rejecting the government's rule within the prison. 3. **Characteristics of Demons**: - Demons prioritize their self-interest, ignoring morality, relationships, or compassion. - Kaṁsa exemplifies demonic behavior by attempting to kill Kṛṣṇa and showing no regard for his sister's life during her wedding. 4. **Characteristics of Demigods**: - Demigods are selfless and consider the consequences of their actions carefully. - Arjuna, despite facing injustices, hesitated to harm his relatives, exemplifying godly qualities. 5. **Suffering in the Material World**: - Human suffering, such as birth, death, old age, and disease, is controlled by māyā (illusion) and God. - Demons fail to recognize this control, falsely claiming independence while being subjected to inevitable miseries. 6. **Kṛṣṇa’s Protection**: - The Lord’s devotees should remain fearless, even amidst demonic oppression, as Kṛṣṇa is always present to protect them. 7. **Modern Demonic Tendencies**: - The world increasingly faces godless governance, with policies that create artificial scarcity, control populations, and suppress spirituality. - Historical examples, like the artificial famine in India under British rule, highlight demonic manipulation for self-serving goals. 8. **Hope in Kṛṣṇa Consciousness**: - Despite rising demonic influence, Kṛṣṇa's devotees should continue their mission fearlessly. - Kṛṣṇa promises to intervene whenever righteousness is threatened. This lecture underscores the importance of surrendering to Kṛṣṇa, understanding His supreme position, and remaining steadfast in devotion, even in challenging times.
Am I the only one who didn't hear a word about ISKCON in this lecture? SP said:" So this sankirtana movement, Hare Krishna movement ia also incarnation of Krishna ..."
Hare krishna... plz accept my obeisances... most of the population is impure but if you take up the process of Chanting Hare Krishna hare krishna krishna krishna hare hare hare ram hare ram ram ram hare hare ..your heart gradually becomes pure over the period of time and you start developing love for krishna.. so plz take this krishna conscious in your life and make it perfect 🥰
Iskcon was turned to kaliscon at the GBC meeting of March 1978 at Sri Dham Mayapur. Back then the 11 leading men who were supposed to act as rittviks based on the July 9 1977 letter were diabolically assigned to the posts of zonal acaryas uttama adhikara diksa gurus. Thus ISKCON was derailed and became spiritually useless.
@@sanatsevajay Spiritually useless ? Hardly. The Hare Krishna movement is constantly expanding despite the demons efforts, like changing Srila Prabhupada's original books, implementing the bogus guru voting system amongst many other bogus changes. Remember, prabhu, Prahlad Maharaja had to endure a lot of suffering under his father until Lord Nrisimhadeva eventually killed him. Krishna is allowing all these bogus gurus to do as they like, until He decides enough is enough. Sripad Aindra Prabhu predicted there would be a revolution in Iskcon. I can barely wait and I pray that Krishna asks me to assist Him in cleansing Iskcon of all these charalatans. 🙏
Actually as Krsna says in ch7 4 types of people come to him out of 4, 2 arth aarthi and arta are people having different motives to come to Krsna they don't come to Krsna for love they have their own motives so likewise ISKCON as institution provides all the knowledge to pursue spiritual life now it is upto to the person, what motives does it have so there is no problem in what srila Prabhupada has given us but it is us who are problematic and have other desires besides serving Krsna
Hare Krishna Jaya Srila Prabhupada 🙏🏻
Hare Krishna thanks for upload lecture 😊
All Glories to Jagad Guru Srila Prabhupada 🙌🙌🙇🙇

It is an incarnation of krshna but there is need of incarnation to clean it internally .
Dear vasu, harekrushna, don't worry about the existing impediments and tribulations within, just carry on krushna chanting
Srila prabhupada did say in the third generation pure devotees will be born who will take the movement forward.
J😢
An Incarnation of Sri Krishna can't be polluted, the present iskcon corporation is a fraud like the Maya Sita Ravana got😮

@@prithvichauhan58 When one is able to practise sankhya one doesn't need to chant the hare krishna mantra.
If iskcon is incarnation of krshna then why some things go wrong in iskcon .
