Happy and blessed Birthday!
Your Birth day is very auspicious due to Gaura Purnima.
Please take the blessing of Lord Gaura Sundara by chanting more and reading at least one page of Prabhupada's book everyday without fail from today itself.
Today is Gaura Purnima Festival!
Today devotees observe fasting to purify themselves till the moonrise.
The program starts at 6 P.M to 9 P.M followed by Music, Drama, and sumptuous Vegetarian Prasadam.
Please take advantage of holy association of devotees and mercy of Lord Caitanya.
Lord Caitanya who is the Supreme Personality of God Head, descended on this earth in 1407 Saka Era on the full moon evening of the month of Phalguna, during the constellation of Simhalagna as the son of Sri Sacidevi and Jagannath Misra in Navadvipa in the district of Srihatta. Lord Krishna is all sweetness. Radharani’s attraction for Krishna is sublime, and to experience that attraction and understand the transcendental sweetness of Himself, He accepted the mentality of Radharani to enjoy the bliss tested by Radharani.
It is confirmed in Srimad Also from Cc Mad.20.330
“In the Satya, Treta, Dvapara, and Kali yugas, Krishna accepts four different colors: white, red , black, and yellow respectively. These are the colors of the different incarnations in different millenniums.”
Lord Caitanya was in yellow color. It proved that Lord Caitanya was the Krishna Himself.
The Lord Caitanya is the pioneer Leader of Hare Krishna congregational Chanting. Lord Caitanya started spreading Hare Krishna Movement on the Public with His associates to save fallen souls—who are grossly engrossed with demoniac mentality and activities.
Lord Ramacandra appeared to kill one demon king Ravana who had kidnapped Goddess Sita Devi. However, Lord Caitanya appeared to kill the demoniac mentality of countless demons of this age that are found in every house in this Modern age thorough the Hare Krishna Mahamantra. So, Lord Caitanya’s incarnation is known as the Magnanimous incarnation. Lord Caitanya had forecasted that His holy name will be broadcasted in every town and Villages throughout the world which was implemented by His Devine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada through ISKCON. So, we are all indebted to Lord Caitanaya for His causeless mercy to save us.
All Glories to Lord Caitanya!
Thank you,
Your servant,
