Swami B. V. Tripurari Live Q&A; May 19, 2024: The Unconscious, the Brain, and Krishna Consciousness
Description
Sri Pundarika Vidyanidhi was at one point critical of the pujaris in Jagannatha Puri for covering the deities in new cloth without washing out the starch. In response to this, Lord Jagannatha and Lord Balarama appeared to him in a dream an slapped him on his cheeks. Can you explain the significance of this pastime?
Earlier in Gaura-lila, Sri Gadadhara Pandit criticized Sri Pundarika Vidyanidhi which he later realized was a grave mistake. Here Pundarika Vidyanidhi is critical. This makes me wonder, who is Pundarika Vidyanidhi in Krishna-lila?
What is the role of the unconscious in Krishna consciousness?
What is the relationship between the mind and the brain, and what is the function of the brain?
Why do we refer to Srila Sridhara Maharaja with the title Deva?
If Sri Ramananda Raya is identified with Pandava Arjuna, and Arjuna is identified with Nara-Narayana, who is VIshnu-tattva, might this be the reason that Ramananda Raya is also identified with many other personalities, as Vishnu-tattva may have several sthayi-bhavas simultaneously while jivas do not?
