In a conversation with Acintya Rupa last night I was reminded of an incident that occurred in Mayapur during the GBC meetings and the importance of mass prasadam distribution. I happened to be in earshot of a rather intense conversation between two old friends, Ramabhadra Prabhu and Ramesvara Prabhu. They are currently at loggerheads over the selling of the Brooklyn property. The conversation was intense but, might I add, entirely amicable and respectful. There are ways to dis

SOUL QUEST
In the tests and trials of life we sometimes forget that we are also been given certain abilities by the lord to help us discover our area of sacrifice and service which we can offer him. Kaliyuga the age of quarrel, chaos and confusion, not only deters us from the right path but also stagnates or delays the whole process.

Purushottam Nitai Das: He was so insignificant materially that no one cared about him. He was an unknown person living a life of penury. So, during the mahaprakash pastimes, when Lord Chaitanya told the devotees to bring Sridhar to him then all were amazed.
“Why is the Supreme Lord so concerned about him? And most importantly where could we find him?” The devotees were wondering.
“Go out and you will hear someone loudly chanting the holy names of the Lord. Follow the sound and you will come t

In pursuance of this vision, by the blessings of Sri Sri Radha Parthasarathi and Srila Prabhupada, we received the rare opportunity of visiting the Honorable

Dear devotees, this morning with a heavy heart we left the temple of Madana Gopal in Belpukur.
The beautiful Madan Gopal was worshipped by Sachimata’s father. The worship has been going on for about 1.700 years. From there we entered Simantadvipa which corresponds to the process of hearing sravanam. Soon enough the first katha of the day was held under a huge banyan tree. It wasn’t just tall in size but it vigorously spread in all directions with branches which were almost as thick as the main
