# April 3 *Lectures from this day: 7 recordings* --- **[[spoken/720403sb.syd|SB 1.2.5 — April 3, 1972, Sydney]]** **Prabhupāda:** > munayaḥ sādhu pṛṣṭo 'haṁ > bhavadbhir loka-maṅgalam > yat kṛtaḥ kṛṣṇa-sampraśno > yenātmā suprasīdati > [[sb/1/2/5|[SB. 1.2.5] ]] Just I wish to thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your coming here to participate in this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. This movement is not a new thing or something concocted, but it is authorized and very old movement. There was a meeting about five thousand years ago in a place which is called Naimiṣāraṇya. That Naimiṣāraṇya is still there in India. There is a railway station which is called Nimsar. It is near Lucknow, in the northern part of India. Those who have gone to India, they may know this place. This is very old place. And still, if you go, you will find there immediately a spiritual atmosphere. There are many places in India where, if you go, you will find immediately a spiritual atmosphere. So this verse I am just now quoting is the verse given by Sūta Gosvāmī, the president of the meeting. In that meeting many learned scholars, *brāhmaṇas,* they assembled to discuss about Kṛṣṇa. The question was that "After departure of Kṛṣṇa from this planet, *dharma* and *jñāna*"—*dharma* means religious principles, and *jñāna* means knowledge—"these two things, who has taken care of them?" *Dharma-jñānādibhiḥ saha[[sb/1/3/43|[SB. 1.3.43] ]].* Actually, human society should be concerned with two things: *dharma* and *jñāna. Dharma* means the characteristic. --- **[[spoken/740403bg.bom|Bg 4.14 — April 3, 1974, Bombay]]** **Translation:** "There is no work that affects Me; nor do I aspire for the fruits of action. One who understands this truth about Me also does not become entangled in the fruitive reactions of work." **Prabhupāda:** > na māṁ karmāṇi limpanti > na me karma-phale spṛhā > iti māṁ yo 'bhijānāti > karmabhir na sa badhyate > [[bg/4/14|[Bg. 4.14] ]] --- **[[spoken/740403mw.bom|Morning Walk — April 3, 1974, Bombay]]** **Prabhupāda:** *Bhūya.* He has already spoken so many important things; still, He wants to give information of further important part. **Prabhupāda:** Yes. "Because these things are to be spoken to My dear devotees, *priyamāṇāya,* for the special benefit of the devotees, not for the ordinary man." *Bhūya eva mahā-bāho* [[bg/10/1|[Bg. 10.1] ]]. Mahā-bāho,* this word is used, "mighty-armed," who is very strong in devotional service. *Mahā-bāho. Bhūya eva mahā-bāho* *śṛṇu* *me paramaṁ vacaḥ." Mahā-bāho:* because you are My great devotee, therefore I am speaking further, very important subject matter." Next line? --- **[[spoken/750403cc.may|Cc.

From the navel of Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu sprouts the lotus that is the birthplace of Brahmā, the engineer of the universe. The stem of that lotus is the resting place of the multitude of planets." --- **[[spoken/750403mw.may|Morning Walk — April 3, 1975 , Māyāpur]]** **Prabhupāda:** ... go into the fighting place. But the still, they... That the... What this? Red Cross. They go in same spirit. **Haṁsadūta:** In Ireland, the devotees go there. The Catholics and the Protestants are always fighting. But everybody likes the devotees. **Prabhupāda:** No, it is... That is the meaning of God. Everything comes from Him, but He's self-sufficient. That is God. --- **[[../../spoken/1976/760403mw.vrn.md|Morning Walk [partially recorded] — April 3, 1976, Vṛndāvana]]** *[Lecture file not found]* --- **[[spoken/760403sb.vrn|SB 7.9.48 — April 3, 1976, Vṛndāvana]]** Anantarām Śāstrījī*:* *Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.
