Vaishnav means sevak of VISHNU ,but krishna is original supreme personality of godhead ,Vishnu is

expanded form ,of Krishna

Devotees - life centrered around krishna

Non devotees - life centered around everyone

HH RADHANATH SWAMI SAYS -"To make grihasta life successfull ,there should be divine couple
between the couple"

In life of devotees ,newtons 3rd law does not works as the karma reactions are destroyed

Doing bhakti ,all karma is destroyed by its root

Material life centered around me (mamatva)

Spiritual life centered around Krishna and his devootees

First disease is bhavrog

Second is unlimited desires

Symtom of kaliyuga
Quarrel and hyppocracy

But devotee is without envy ,nirmatsaranam

Why vaishnav etiquete?
To beaware of aparadh ,and prachar and our behaviour
As in 2.54 Arjuna asks about the behaviour of person in samadhi ,or deep devotion

Vaishanv sadachar

Divided in 2 parts
ACHAR AND PRACHAR

ACHAR - tilak ,a jwellery of a devotee, always dharan tilak , tilak pehte hai lagate nahi
Its a vijay symbol against maya
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu said that a person without tilak is like a walking shamshan ghat ,

With tilak ,Yamdutas cannot touch you ,even its light

Eveil forces cannot harm anyone if tilak is there.

Left side of tilak brahama ,right side shiva ,centre is Krishnas lotus feet, and its offered with tulsi
below
How and where to put ?
12 places
All must be applied
If non devotee family ,put every where ,not no forehead ,or dilute it and put

Kanthi
2 rounds - soul and supresoul ,
3 rounds - soul supersoul and gurudev - initiated devotees wear

A person heard mahima of kanthi ,although he ate nonveg ,some purity comes from wearing it , he
died near Tulsi plant ,wearing kanthi ,yamduta could not touch him ,went to vaikuntha.

3 main Guna of vaishnav ,

1 tilak
2 Kanthi
3 Ekadshi fasting

Once on Srila Bhaktivnod Thakur one tantrik to kill him he used tantrik vidya at the end it he only
dies because Srila Bhaktivnod Thakur was so pure
Dress
Dhoti kurta ,saree
Its our culture ,

Its not for style its a vaishnav dress.

Its a dress of demigod
Its the dress of Goloka
Dress effects our conciousness
It brings positive thought
Be always humble

Nitya karm

4 things
1 Waking up - after we wake up we make Krishna wake up
Then remember the whole parampara
Its imp to remember the meaning of shlokas , more than just remembering the shlokas

Wake up at 4:00
Mangala arti attend ,to do mangal in your life

After waking AFTER suryoday

Surya takes your energy
And brahaman and gau hatya ka paap lagta hai

If not remember anything wakeup chant hare krishna ,thanks Krishna ,attend mangala arti

What if we sleep late ?

Melatonin a harmone ,helps in sleeping ,if not slept early it will not be released , in future ,it brings
disease
All the other jivas(animals birtds etc.) ,they follow the rules of nature

THERE ARE 2 gods

Pratyaksha and Apratyaksha ,suryanarayan and krishna , try to wakeup before ,Suryadev ,expansion
of Suryanarayana.
2 Sleeping - before sleeping ,chant vanchakalp .........
Before sleeping ,wash hand legs and face and brush
bhoot pairo se ghuste hai-SO WASH FEET

3 Bathing -
After tilak our snan is complete ,
mangla is done under stars,if not full mangal arti ,offer agarbatti ,deep and flowers , if not mentally
offer it .
Srila Prabhupada said that we can miss mangala arti if one is dead

Srila Prabhupada said :normal People die ,saints sleep and wakeup in goloka
4 Prasadam - devotees relish it ,honour it ,nondevotees ,they just grab it
Have it sitting in nort or east facing

Once Gurumaharaj came late ,Maharaj sang FULL mahaprasade govinde ...then he honoured ,
