  • Sri Isopanisad Mantras 13-15 - May 18, 1970 - Los Angeles
    A class on Sri Isopanisad Mantras 13-15 given by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 18, 1970 in Los Angeles, CA.
    Sri Isopanisad Mantra 13
    anyad evāhuḥ sambhavād
    anyad āhur asambhavāt
    iti śuśruma dhīrāṇāṁ
    ye nas tad vicacakṣire
    It is said that one result is obtained by worshiping the supreme cause of all causes and that another result is obtained by worshiping what is not supreme. All this is heard from the undisturbed authorities, who clearly explained it.
    Sri Isopanisad Mantra 14
    sambhūtiṁ ca vināśaṁ ca
    yas tad vedobhayaṁ saha
    vināśena mṛtyuṁ tīrtvā
    sambhūtyāmṛtam aśnute
    One should know perfectly the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa and His transcendental name, form, qualities and pastimes, as well as the temporary material creation with its temporary demigods, men and animals. When one knows these, he surpasses death and the ephemeral cosmic manifestation with it, and in the eternal kingdom of God he enjoys his eternal life of bliss and knowledge.
    Sri Isopanisad Mantra 15
    hiraṇmayena pātreṇa
    satyasyāpihitaṁ mukham
    tat tvaṁ pūṣann apāvṛṇu
    satya-dharmāya dṛṣṭaye
    O my Lord, sustainer of all that lives, Your real face is covered by Your dazzling effulgence. Kindly remove that covering and exhibit Yourself to Your pure devotee.
