Story 25 Krsna's headache
1
00:00:01,347 --> 00:00:08,917
So, the point is that superficially
it may appear, sometimes,
2
00:00:08,918 --> 00:00:17,955
against the social and religious rules and
regulations, but if it is done for Kṛṣṇa…
3
00:00:17,956 --> 00:00:23,217
Ānukūlye… Bhakti means ānukūlyena
kṛṣṇānu-śīlanam [Madhya 19.167].
4
00:00:23,218 --> 00:00:25,549
Kṛṣṇa should be satisfied.
5
00:00:25,550 --> 00:00:27,095
That is bhakti.
6
00:00:27,096 --> 00:00:30,198
It doesn’t matter.
7
00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:31,364
Kṛṣṇa should be satisfied;
8
00:00:31,365 --> 00:00:39,210
just like Kṛṣṇa pretended that He
was sick, and many physicians came.
9
00:00:39,211 --> 00:00:41,087
He said, “No physician
[can cure] Me.
10
00:00:41,088 --> 00:00:49,099
If some devotee gives Me the dust of his
feet on My head, then I can be cured.”
11
00:00:49,100 --> 00:00:51,629
So all devotees were asked.
12
00:00:51,630 --> 00:00:56,570
And nobody… “Oh! [How] can I
give… My dust on the head of Kṛṣṇa?
13
00:00:56,571 --> 00:00:58,533
How it is possible?”
14
00:00:58,534 --> 00:01:01,064
Nobody [was] prepared.
15
00:01:01,065 --> 00:01:03,816
Then Kṛṣṇa asked that,
“Go to Vṛndāvana.
16
00:01:03,817 --> 00:01:09,796
Just ask the gopīs if they can give—they
are My best friends—if they are prepared?
17
00:01:09,797 --> 00:01:13,264
I am very much suffering
from headache.”
18
00:01:13,265 --> 00:01:14,860
So nobody was prepared to go…
19
00:01:14,861 --> 00:01:18,468
As soon as gopīs were
approached: “Oh, Kṛṣṇa is sick.
20
00:01:18,469 --> 00:01:19,916
[He] wanted; oh, dust of…?”
21
00:01:19,917 --> 00:01:24,663
Immediately: “Please take.
22
00:01:24,664 --> 00:01:26,367
Please take.”
23
00:01:26,368 --> 00:01:27,733
[They] did not care that,
24
00:01:27,734 --> 00:01:31,281
“We are going to hell by offering our
dust of feet on the head of Kṛṣṇa.
25
00:01:31,282 --> 00:01:36,190
Never mind; we shall go;
Kṛṣṇa will be happy; that’s all.”
26
00:01:36,191 --> 00:01:39,133
Kṛṣṇa will be happy.
27
00:01:39,134 --> 00:01:41,466
This is bhakti.
28
00:01:41,467 --> 00:01:44,642
It doesn’t matter the whole
world is going to hell,
29
00:01:44,643 --> 00:01:48,316
but if Kṛṣṇa is satisfied, a
devotee’s prepared to do that.
30
00:01:48,317 --> 00:01:50,307
That is Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
31
00:01:50,308 --> 00:02:00,505
That is called uttama-bhakti.
32
00:02:00,506 --> 00:02:00,507
