Enlightening Discourse on Swami Abhedananda,Shivananda, Greatness of Chennai,Namakirtan about Kaliyuga - Part-17

[Guest guest]

Radhe Krishna To all,

 

Discourse contd.....

 

Srivasa Pandit had a beautiful image of Lord Nrisimha. After his daily bath and

other ordained rituals, he worshipped Lord Nrisimha. After ‘abhishek’ and

‘archana’ he was about to do 'karpoora aarati'. At this time, Mahaprabhu was

reading the Bhagavatam at his own home. He was reading the chapter in the

Seventh Canto dealing with Prahlad charitra.

 

When he began to read the scene of Lord Nrisimha appearing in Hiranyakasippu's

court for the sake of His devotee Prahlad, Mahaprabhu closed the Bhagavatam. He

was filled with Nrisimha 'avesh'. Mahaprabhu himself had turned into Lord

Nrisimha. He was totally unaware of the world.

Some great power drew

him to Srivasa Pandit's house. On reaching his house he banged at the door with

both his hands. Srivasa Pandit heard the loud noise and wondered who would bang

so loudly at the door.

 

Mahaprabhu had a very thin, soft physique. He was as delicate as a soft creeper.

Srivasa Pandit moved swiftly to the door and opened it. On seeing Mahaprabhu, he

at once realized that Mahaprabhu was not his own self but was in Nrisimha avesh.

When Lord Nrisimha Himself had come to his home would one worship the idol?

Therefore, Srivasa Pandit kept the idol of Nrisimha aside and led Mahaprabhu to

the seat. Mahaprabhu, in Nrisimha avesh, sat in yogaasana. Srivasa Pandit

performed puja to Mahaprabhu in Nrisimha avesh. When the puja was over,

Mahaprabhu in Nrisimha avesh, roared like a lion. Srivasa Pandit shivered from

head to foot on hearing the loud roar. Mahaprabhu then exclaimed, " Srinivasa!

All the people in the world can experience fear. But how can you

experience fear? "

It was a hard slap across his face. He thought, 'God! He knows all my thoughts!'

 

But it was not surprising that Mahaprabhu could read his thoughts. Mahaprabhu

continued, " Do you know why I have come down? Only to bring out Hari Naama from

the lips of all – animals, birds, creepers, plants, trees, sentient and

insentient things! With some I would plead, to some I would speak sweet words,

some I would beat, some I would threaten, I would fall at the feet of some –

using various means I would make everyone chant the Naama. That is verily the

purpose behind my Avatar. Don't think that you are doing this job. Where there

is my Will, even trees, plants, creepers, wood and everything will chant the

Naama. If you doubt my words, I will prove it to you. "

 

Mahaprabhu was still in Nrisimha 'avesh'. He got up from the seat and moved into

the room where Srivasa

Pandit's little granddaughter was in the cradle. The baby's name was Narayani.

All the devotees followed him.

 

Mahaprabhu tapped the baby and said, " Narayani! Chant the Naama! "

At once the baby, clapping its tender hands, began to sing,

" Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare!

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare! "

Mahaprabhu fell down in a swoon. He came out of the 'bhav'. The very purpose of

Mahaprabhu's Avatar was only to teach all, in Kali, the Naama spoken in that

Upanishad.
