The item contains recordings of informal meetings between Babaji and his students and guests at Jiva Vrindavan.
These meetings took place during the previous Bhakti Ratna semester from January through March 2023. After the morning kirtan devotees would gather around Babaji and ask questions on a variety of śastric and devotional subjects and pose practical day-to-day queries. Thus the name śāstra-charcha — discussion on śāstra, mostly scriptures relevant to Gaudiya Vaishnavism. In between Babaji also reads from the book Chitta-vinodini, “a collection of ślokas that entertain the heart.“
Part 4 covers recording of meetings between February 15–27, 2023. It consist of 10 recordings (~4h) and a detailed content description.
If you forget your goal, then you will become deviated. It happens many times to people when they come to spiritual life – they get into other things and they forget why they came. If someone asks you why you are doing it? Is this behavior you are doing helping serve the purpose you came for? Often times the answer is no.
