Navadvipa dham Mahatmya narrates Ramanujacarya’s arrival to Navadvipa as follows:

Dear Devotees
I just received a message to communicate to devotees that Ramesvar prabhu’s lungs have been completely compromised by the virus, doctors said they can’t do anything and have given him a few hours. Please pray for Ramesvar prabhu and Krisangi mataji at this very difficult time.
He is a disciple of HH Bhakti Caru Swami and HG Srutidharma prabhu’s close friend and a major part of the temple council of Bhaktivedanta Manor.
May Lord Krsna ease his passage and award him His lotus feet.

Ramanujacarya was born in India during the year 1017 A.D. His parents were Asuri Keshava and Kantimati, both from aristocratic families.
Ramanuja was a great acarya in the Sri Sampradaya.
Prior to Ramanuja, the Sri Sampradaya was already an established organisation under Yamunacharya, and bhakti songs and devotional ideas already a part of south Indian culture because of the twelve Alvars (great saints).
Ramanuja’s fame grew because he was considered the first thinker in centuries that disputed

On March 26th, 2020, well-known ISKCON spiritual master and published author Sivarama has released one of his books for free. He shares:
“At this time our planet and our devotees need prayer. No doubt many devotees have their own prayers. Yet some do not. Some years back, in response to repeated requests to write something about prayer, we published the prayers I recite daily upon rising.”
The name of Sivarama Swami’s book is My Daily Prayers. While that book is now out of print, Lal Publish
All day, we are talking about money. At work, money is the centre. That is what it is basically all about; doing all these things to make money. We make money, the company makes money. So money is all we are doing it for. Having a nice meeting – for money! Everyone is present – for money! That is all that is for.
At work, one is busy with money. But then at home, that is enough! How much time can we spend for money? Money comes anyway on it’s own accord. And its also to be remembered that one s

I am now situated in my house in Vrindavan, India where I will stay in isolation for as many days, weeks and months as required during the Coronavirus pandemic. This is what governments around the world are recommending and even imposing upon their citizens. Social distancing is one of the practical keys to alleviating the Coronavirus. At the same time it poses a problem for devotees who thrive on sadhu sanga – associating with other vaisnavas, which is a key to spiritual advancement. To encour

I am deeply sorry to inform you that Jairama prabhu (aged 78) from Paris (initiated by me 6 years ago), is at present in hospital in Paris with Covid 19, and the doctors say there is nothing they can do for him – within hours he may pass away.
Many of you know, or would have met Jairama prabhu, who rendered unconditional service to Sri Sri Radha Paris Isvara, Jaganantha Baladeva Subhadra and Sri Sri Nitai Saci Sut
As the ground in Zagreb is still periodically trembling, after two major earthquakes which happened on the morning of March 22nd, when all inhabitants of Zagreb run out of their homes, we are glad to inform you that our beloved deities Sri Sri Gaura Nitai are regularly worshiped without disruption, the Nova Jaladuta temple building did not suffer any major damage, while nobody of the devotees from Zagreb was reported as seriously affected. As an immediate precaution measure the upper part of t
People we meet or know who impress us the most are those that extend us kindness and heartfelt interest. We may appreciate a person’s beauty, strength, wealth, knowledge, fame, or renunciation (qualities Krishna has in full), but if a person is not kind it stands out like a huge blemish. A lessor person who is kind and friendly appears more valuable, and greater. Of the twenty-six qualities of a devotee given in the great Gaudiya Vaishnava scripture, Shri Chaitanya Charitamrita, we find that ki

Since last few months I have come across devotees who have lost their chanting beads. If this in itself was not bad enough, then what was even more painful for them was that in all the cases, save one, their spiritual master declined to chant again on new chanting beads.
For the devotees the most precious and dear most treasure are their chanting beads- on which their spiritual master has chanted and which they had been given at the time of their initiation ceremony. If the chanting beads are m
