Course description
Śrī Satyanarayana Dasa Babaji reads Śrī Jīva Gosvāmī's Gopāla-campū. We practice and apply the sūtras from Śrī Harināmāmṛta-vyākaraṇam while relishing Śrī Kṛṣṇa's astonishing līlā as per Śrīmad Bhāgavata and other Purāṇas. This work is Jīva Gosvāmī's poetic masterpiece and we listen to Babaji unlocking it.
You will get:
• Babaji's first 20 video lectures, around 45 min each;
• One new class every Saturday (May 2024–October 2024);
• The Sanskrit text in Roman and Devanagari script;
Gopāla-campū is a mahā-kāvya and Jīva Gosvāmī’s literary masterpiece because:
- he uses all grammatical rules at least once;
- it contains all words from the 3 most popular Sanskrit dictionaries;
- it depicts all 12 rasas and many poetic ornaments;
- contains many songs of the caliber of Jayadeva's Gīta-govinda;
- is of enormous length;
- contains the entire theology of Kṛṣṇa-sandarbha.
External situations cannot force you to give up Bhakti. External situations can force you to give up specific actions of Bhakti. But the essence of Bhakti is fixity of mind on Krishna. Only an offense can trigger you to give up Bhakti. But then you will come back to Bhakti anyway once the offense has given its result.
