Hare Kṛṣṇa. So we have published our Nectar of Devotion. So every one of you should read this Nectar of Devotion repeatedly. The whole substance of Vaiṣṇava philosophy and activities, everything is there. So every one of you read this Nectar of Devotion once, twice, thrice. Unless you have got full-fledged ideas what is this devotional service.
That was written by . . . actually, it was spoken by Lord Caitanya to Rūpa Gosvāmī. For ten days continually He instructed Rūpa Gosvāmī at Prayāga, Daśāśvamedha-ghāṭa (CC Madhya 23.102). You have seen the picture in TLC (Teachings of Lord Caitanya). Caitanya Mahāprabhu was Allahabad, Prayāga, and Rūpa Gosvāmī met Him there. He was offering obeisances flat. You have seen that picture.
So at that time Caitanya Mahāprabhu personally gave him instruction what is this cult of bhakti. So for ten days. And he took note of it, and later on he placed this book in the form of Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu. That is in Sanskrit. It will be difficult for you. Therefore I have presented a summary study, and the summary study has come to 407 pages. If we would have elaborately described each and every verse, then it would have come to at least thousand pages.
So the whole substance is creamed. You should take advantage of this. And don't indulge in much unnecessary talks. Time should be very properly utilized. Āyuṣaḥ kṣaṇa eko 'pi na labhyaḥ svarṇa-koṭibhiḥ (Cāṇakya Paṇḍita). Value of time is so great that one moment of your life lost, it cannot be returned even in exchange of millions of dollars. Therefore every moment should be properly utilized. Avyartha kālatvam (CC Madhya 23.18-19). When one is advanced in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, his business becomes to see, "Whether I am wasting my time?" That is one of the sign, advanced devotee. Avyartha kālatvam.
Nāma-gāne sadā ruci (CC Madhya 23.32): attachment for chanting always. Prītis tad-vasati sthale (CC Madhya 23.18-19): and attraction or attachment for living in the temple, vasati, where Kṛṣṇa lives. Kṛṣṇa lives everywhere, but specifically, to give us chance to meet, He lives in the temple or in places like Vṛndāvana. So prītis tad-vasati sthale: one should be enhanced in attachment for living where Kṛṣṇa is living. Prītis tad . . . nāma-gāne sadā ruci: and taste for singing always the holy name. These are development.
Ādau śraddhā tataḥ sādhu-saṅgaḥ (CC Madhya 23.14-15). All of you who come here, it is out of śraddhā, some, what is called . . . what is the exact English word for śraddhā? Devotion, you can take. Devotion. Those who come here, that first principle is they have some regard that, "This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is nice. Let me see." So this is the beginning. Ādau śraddhā. And then sādhu-saṅgaḥ: then associate with these devotees. Then, after some time, when he's little advanced more, then he is eager to become initiated. This is third stage, as some of these students are going to be initiated today.
