Message from GM

My dear Diksa, Siksa, Shelter, Aspiring disciples and well wishers,

Please accept my blessings. All glories to Srila Prabhupada whose books can

save the entire world.

 

In this month of the book distribution marathon, I would like to share a few

thoughts with you and encourage you to implement them in your daily Krsna

Conscious life.

 

In a letter dated April 17 1970, Srila Prabhupada personally wrote the

following words to me:

 

“The books are being written specifically for my students and I am so glad

to learn that you read them so carefully. The words are ambrosial because

they are not my personal words, they are instructions of my predecessors and

I am just trying to administer them to my best knowledge. That is the way of

Parampara system.”

 

I desire that those who are inspired by me take these instructions from

Srila Prabhupada very seriously. I want that all my followers read Srila

Prabhupada’s books very carefully. Srila Prabhupada in his letter to me

informs us that he becomes very glad by that. We all have to please Srila

Prabhupada and our success in Krishna Consciousness is measured by how much

we can please him.

 

We should not only read these books carefully but also regularly. In a

letter to Urvasi Patel dated July 25, 1975, Srila Prabhupada writes:

 

“Be sure to read my books very carefully, Bhagavad-gita, then

Srimad-Bhagavatam, and then Caitanya Caritamrta. You should read every day

without fail and become fixed in our philosophy.”

 

In this month of Book Distribution Marathon, I request all of you to begin

serious and regular study of Srila Prabhupada’s books and simultaneously

preach by distributing these books profusely:

 

“Be assured that there is no more direct way to preach than to distribute

Krishna conscious books. Whoever gets a book is benefited. If he reads the

book he is benefited still more, or if he gives the book to someone else for

reading, both he and the other person is benefited. Even if one does not

read the book but simply holds it and sees it, he is benefited. If he simply

gives small donation towards the work of Krishna consciousness he is

benefited. And anyone who distributes these transcendental literatures, he

is also benefited. Therefore Sankirtana is the prime benediction for the

age.” Srila Prabhupada [Letter to German disciples, 6 May 1977]

 

Mokshada Ekadasi usually falls in the month of December every year. It is on

this holy day that Lord Sri Krishna spoke the Bhagavad-gita to Arjuna. I was

informed that this year, a very nice program was arranged in Sri Mayapur.

Devotees assembled in the Pancha Tattva Temple and from 8.30 am onwards

began to recite each verse of the Bhagavad-gita beginning with the first

chapter. The temple room was packed. The recitation took about four hours.

There was a fire yagna towards the end and beginning with it the entire 18th

chapter was recited while offering oblations unto the fire. HH Bhakti Caru

Maharaja and HH Bhakti Purusottama Maharaja were present in Mayapur during

this event. The devotees who recited the entire Bhagavad-gita were all very

ecstatic. Maybe other parts of the world may also be interested to organise

this program in their yatras in future years.

 

Srila Prabhupada trancendental book distribution ki jai!

Bhagavad-gita ki jai!

 

Your well wisher always,

Jayapataka Swami

Balabhadra Prabhu’s 60th birthday report and GM’s offering.

My Dear GuruMaharaj

Please accept my respectful obeisances.  All glories to YDG.
We have a great 60th birthday celebration for HH Sriman Balabhadra Bhattacharya Prabhu.  I will post the pictures on facebook and send you the link. I read your offering to start of the program, after that we had talk from Vedasara, and a few other God-brothers.  Several devotees offered Garlands, gifts and came forward to get Balabhadra Prabhu’s blessings.  Also we chanted for about 30-45 minutes to seek their Lordships Blessings.
Also at the same time we celebrated your disciple Madan Mohan Prabhu and his wife Mohini Radha Devi Dasi (the old Gujarathi couple) 60th wedding anniversary.  Not sure if you have heard, but Madana Mohan prabhu is 85 years old and he was just diagnosed of Lung Cancer.  It is 4th stage.  It will be really nice if you can write him letter and give your blessings.
Madana Mohan prabhu has become very weak.  There were about 150+ congregation in attendance.
Balabhadra Prabhu was very touched and moved to hear your offering.
