Arya-siddhanta Dasa the foolish speaker

[Paramananda das]

PAMHO AGTSP

Danavir Swami has a very foolish disciple called Arya Siddhanta, he thinks that chanting 16 rounds is superior to 64 rounds.

This philosophy is shared by many lazy persons. The GBC in the past had chastised the biggest Guru in ISKCON that you are not chanting your 16 rounds, we want to see you chant.

  16 rounds is a bare minimum, but Lord Caitanya ,who is the Supreme personality of Godhead, though some have zero faith in His words has stated:

In Shri Chaitanya-bhagavata, Antya Khanda 9.121-122, Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu instructed everyone on whose worship and service He will accept:
(121) prabhu bale,-"jana, 'lakshesvara' bali kare? prati-dina laksha-nama ye grahana kare"
"Do you know who is a laksesvara? He is someone who chants one laksa or 100,000 holy names (64 rounds of the Hare Krishna maha-mantra) everyday."
Purport by Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada:
shri gaurasundera balibena-"jini pratidina laksha-nama grahana karibena, tanharai grihe bhagavan sevita hana.
Shri Gaurasundera spoke as follows-"The Supreme Personality of Godhead accepts service only in the home of those who chant one hundred thousand names daily.
"bhagavan tanharai nikate bhoga-dravyadi grahana karena.
"The Lord accepts bhoga (foodstuffs) and other ingredients only from such personalities.
"jini laksha-nama grahana karena na, tahara nikate haite bhagavan naivedya svikara-dvara seva-saubhagya pradana karena na.
"Those who don't chant 100,000 names (64 rounds) daily, are never awarded the great fortune of rendering service to the Lord by offering Him naivedya (bhoga). This is because the Lord never accepts (svikara) their offerings.
Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada:
"bhagavad-bhakta matrei pratyaha laksha-nama grahana karibena natuva vividha visaye asakta haiya bhagavad-seva karite asamartha haibena."
The Lord continued-"Those who consider themselves devotees of the Lord must compulsorily chant 100,000 names of Krishna everyday otherwise they will gradually but surely become attached to varieties of sense-objects and thus become incapable to rendering any kind of service to the Lord

 

 

I wrote this some time back:

PAMHO AGTSP here is more nectar To not chant 64 rounds daily is an act of impersonalism because Lord Gauranga asked for it, and to not do it shows one is not fully sincere in KC, because Lord Gauranga asked for it,what is your excuse for not chanting 64 rounds daily ? http://nimaipandit.ning.com/profiles/blogs/gbc-proposal-to-chant-64 I know this seems heavy, yes Srila Prabhupada set the minimum standard as 16 rounds a day. but should we not advance and come up to the standard he asked us to get too?He tried to bring the "horse to the water" will we still refuse to take his instruction to heart,at least after having been a devotee for so many years, to have doubled ones chanting or come to the "minimum 64 rounds" is a must,we can not stay spiritual infants our whole life? NoI 7: The holy name, character, pastimes and activities of Kṛṣṇa are all transcendentally sweet like sugar candy. Although the tongue of one afflicted by the jaundice of avidyā [ignorance] cannot taste anything sweet, it is wonderful that simply by carefully chanting these sweet names every day, a natural relish awakens within his tongue, and his disease is gradually destroyed at the root.
NoI 8: The essence of all advice is that one should utilize one's full time — twenty-four hours a day — in nicely chanting and remembering the Lord's divine name, transcendental form, qualities and eternal pastimes, thereby gradually engaging one's tongue and mind. In this way one should reside in Vraja [Goloka Vṛndāvana dhāma] and serve Kṛṣṇa under the guidance of devotees. One should follow in the footsteps of the Lord's beloved devotees, who are deeply attached to His devotional service.
There is no intend in offending any devotee, but remind us all of the standard set by Lord Caitanya and Nityananda Prabhu, and that Srila Prabhupada tried to introduce in ISKCON
Best wishes your servant Paramananda das

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhu stated one should not associate with anyone unwilling to chant this much.. But you will avoid bad association in the name of socalled "vaisnava sanga"

I liked the association of my Gurudeva Bhaktivedanta Narayaan Maharaja ,that never failed to chant one lakh, or Aindra Prabhu , who always chanted at least one lahk, and of Bhakti Promoda Puri Maharaja, they where my real vaisnava sanga.I   live to give inspiration to hopefully a few

that will come to this standard, and I avoid the rest as much as possible....
