Damodarastakam ~ Hare Krishna ~ Agnideva Dasa

3 Tulasi Arati (Vrindavan)

Agnidev Prabhu Bhajans - Jaya Sacinandana Sura Kuli Vandana

pancha-tattva mantra
(jaya) sri-krsna-caitanya prabhu nityananda
sri-advaita gadadhara srivasadi-gaura-bhakta-vrnda

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is always accompanied by His plenary expansion Sri Nityananda Prabhu, His incarnation Sri Advaita Prabhu, His internal potency Sri Gadadhara Prabhu, and His marginal potency Srivasa Prabhu. He is in the midst of them as the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

One should know that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is always accompanied by these other tattvas. Therefore our obeisances to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu are complete when we say, sri-krsna-caitanya prabhu nityananda sri-advaita gadadhara srivasadi-gaura-bhakta-vrinda.

As preachers of the Krsna consciousness movement, we first offer our obeisances to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu by chanting this Panca-tattva mantra; then we say Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. There are ten offenses in the chanting of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra, but these are not considered in the chanting of the Panca-tattva mantra, namely sri-krsna-caitanya prabhu nityananda sri-advaita gadadhara srivasadi-gaura-bhakta-vrnda.

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is known as maha-vadanyavatara, the most magnanimous incarnation, for He does not consider the offenses of the fallen souls. Thus to derive the full benefit of the chanting of the maha-mantra (Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare), we must first take shelter of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, learn the Panca-tattva mantra, and then chant the Hare Krsna maha-mantra. That will be very effective.

Srila Prabhupada Bhajans:  Pancha-Tattva Maha-mantra:

English Translation:

SRI GURV-ASTAKAM:
The spiritual master is receiving benediction from the ocean of mercy. Just as a cloud pours water on a forest fire to extinguish it, so the spiritual master delivers the materially afflicted world by extinguishing the blazing fire of material existence. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master, who is an ocean of auspicious qualities.
Chanting the holy name, dancing in ecstasy, singing, and playing musical instruments, the spiritual master is always gladdened by the sańkīrtana movement of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Because he is relishing the mellows of pure devotion within his mind, sometimes his hair stands on end, he feels quivering in his body, and tears flow from his eyes like waves. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.
The spiritual master is always engaged in the temple worship of Srī Srī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa. He also engages his disciples in such worship. They dress the Deities in beautiful clothes and ornaments, clean Their temple, and perform other similar worship of the Lord. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.
The spiritual master is always offering Kṛṣṇa four kinds of delicious food [analyzed as that which is licked, chewed, drunk, and sucked]. When the spiritual master sees that the devotees are satisfied by eating bhagavat-prasāda, he is satisfied. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.
The spiritual master is always eager to hear and chant about the unlimited conjugal pastimes of Rādhikā and Mādhava, and Their qualities, names, and forms. The spiritual master aspires to relish these at every moment. I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.
The spiritual master is very dear, because he is expert in assisting the gopīs, who at different times make different tasteful arrangements for the perfection of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa's conjugal loving affairs within the groves of Vṛndāvana. I offer my most humble obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.
The spiritual master is to be honored as much as the Supreme Lord, because he is the most confidential servitor of the Lord. This is acknowledged in all revealed scriptures and followed by all authorities. Therefore I offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master, who is a bona fide representative of Srī Hari [Kṛṣṇa].
By the mercy of the spiritual master one receives the benediction of Kṛṣṇa. Without the grace of the spiritual master, one cannot make any advancement. Therefore, I should always remember and praise the spiritual master. At least three times a day I should offer my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of my spiritual master.
One who, with great care and alteration, loudly recites this beautiful prayer to the spiritual master during the Brahma-muhurta hour obtains direct service to Krsna, the Lord of Vrndavana, at the time of his death.

Srila Prabhupada Bhajans: Sri Sri Gurv-Astaka ~ Prayers To The Spiritual Master

Par Karenge

(traditional song)

 

par karenge naiya re, bhaja krishna kanhaiya,

krishna kanhaiya dauji ke bhaiya

krishna kanhaiya vamshi bajaiya,

makhana curaiya re, bhaja krishna kanhaiya (1)

 

Worship Kanhaiya*, the brother of Balarama. Kanhaiya’s lotus feet are the boat to

take us across the ocean of material life. Worship Kanhaiya, that Krishna who stays in

Vraja, playing the flute and from every gopi’s house steals butter (that is, the soft and

pure white hearts that are like butter).

[*Kanhaiya - Yashoda-maiya’s pet name for her darling son. This name is brimming over with sweetness and affection.]

 

krishna kanhaiya girivara uthaiya,

krishna kanhaiya rasa racaiya

para karenge naiya re, bhaja krishna kanhaiya (2)

 

Worship Kanhaiya, that Krishna who lifted Govardhana Hill and performed the Rasali

la. His lotus feet are the boat to take us across the ocean of material life.

 

mitra sudama tandula lae,

gale laga prabhu bhoga lagaye

kaha kaha kaha bhaiya re, bhaja krishna kanhaiya (3)

 

When His friend Sudama brought Him some low-grade rice, He accepted it, embraced

him and cried, “O My brother, you haven’t come for such a long time! Where have

you been? Did you forget Me?” Worship that Krishna!

 

arjuna ka ratha rana me haka,

shyamaliya giridhari baka

kali-naga nathaiya re, bhaja krishna kanhaiya (4)

 

In the Mahabharata war Shyamaliya became Arjuna’s

chariot driver, directing the horses on the battlefield. He lifted Govardhana Hill at

such a tender age and He subdued Kaliya-naga by putting a rope through his nose,

dragging him out of the Yamuna. Worship that Krishna!

 

drupata-suta jaba dushtana gheri,

rakhi laja na kini deri

agaye cira badhaiya re, bhaja krishna kanhaiya (5)

 

Worship that Kanhaiya who immediately came to protect Draupadi by increasing

her cloth unlimitedly when she was surrounded by so many wicked men.
