Swami B. V. Tripurari Live Q&A; September 7, 2025: Grounding Your Faith in Objectivity
Description
Questions on today’s Swami call:
It appears that Gaura-lila is a meeting place for devotees from different spiritual realms. Is this so only in the pastimes manifest in the world (prakata-lila) or also in the spiritual world (aprakata-lila)?
Are there devotees with the love of servitude (dasya-rati) as their dominant emotion (sthayi-bhava) in Vraja-lila?
Do the pastimes of separation draw jivas into the lila as there is a need for their service there?
Guru Maharaja, please accept my humble obeisances. What is the relationship between our actions and our inner states? On what should we base the latter?
When we go on pilgrimage, for example to Vrindavan, is it enough to see the place as an excitant (uddipana) for our bhakti, or is it important to emphasize as a historical fact that Sri Krishna was physically there 5000 years ago?
What would you answer to the argument that one could meditate on anything, such as a flame, and experience the same results as from meditating on Sri Sri Radha Krishna?
What should I keep in mind as I serve Srimati Tulasi-devi?
Do you have any thoughts or advice to share about today’s lunar eclipse?
The description of the Gopala yantra in Gopala-tapani Upanisad is very complicated and technical. Can you explain it?
The Vraja-vasis are not aware that Sri Krishna is God, but in times of calamity they take shelter of him. Why is that?
