I am very grateful to be with all of you this evening. Our Gaurasundar Prabhu spoke according to his very generous hearted perceptions. Actually I have not come out of compassion. But I have come out of deep gratitude to Himansu prabhu and Gita Devi mataji because they invited. Their invitation is all attractive to my heart. Thank You.
I am so glad to be with all of you this evening. Gaurasundara Pr
There is nothing sweeter than chanting the holy names of God in a mood of loving devotion because such chanting brings one into direct contact with the Supreme Person Himself. Such chanting is best done in the early morning hours before sunrise when the material world is not offering many distractions to lure the mind away from Krishna's holy names.
