| So this verse we discussed last night, that this bhagavad-bhakti-yoga is not a new thing. It is purātanaḥ. Kṛṣṇa says, yogaḥ proktaḥ purātanaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 4.3|BG 4.3]]). So just like I was discussing now with Dr. Kapoor, our philosophy is not new: purātanaḥ—the old thing. At the present moment it is a fashion to propound a new kind of philosophy. Not only now; formerly also, as it is said in the Bhāgavatam, nāsāv munir yasya mataṁ na bhinnam ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 17.186|CC Madhya 17.186]]). A muni is not a muni… Muni means mental speculators; manansi, thoughtful muni, thoughtful also—always absorbed in thoughts. So a thoughtful man or a great saintly person is not a great saintly person if he hasn’t got to propound a new theory—nāsāv munir yasya mataṁ na bhinnam ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 17.186|CC Madhya 17.186]]). That is the modern philosophical way, researchment. This philosopher's contribution is up to this; and this philosopher… We have also such things. Just like our Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava and Rāmānujācārya Vaiṣṇava. Rāmānujācārya Vaiṣṇava, they appreciate the service of the Lord up to sakhya-rasa—viśrambha-sakhya—with awe and veneration. Śānta, dāsya, sakhya, up to this information, Rāmānujācārya. But Mādhavācārya sampradāya, they have got up to mādhurya-rasa. And Caitanya Mahāprabhu propounded this mādhurya-rasa. | | So this verse we discussed last night, that this ''bhagavad-bhakti-yoga'' is not a new thing. It is ''purātanaḥ''.
