"Loving search for the lost servant. When a son is lost, the father searches
for him—he gives an advertisement on TV, in newspapers, declares the boy
missing, etc. In the same way, the Lord has lost His children, and He is
searching for us everywhere, 'When will these souls start practising Krishna
consciousness and come back to Me?'"

Today in the calendar: Krishna Dvadashi. Disappearance of Srila Narahari Sarkar Thakur and Srila Kaliya Krishnadas.
His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad Srila B.N. Acharya Maharaj: "Even if you do not know anything about the Vaishnav mentioned in the calendar, you must still give them 'jay' on this day. We must always remember disappearance and appearance days of all Vaishnavs. If we can remember such personalities, such great souls, it will bring a great benefit to our spiritual life."
"We should always check the calendar, and when we see some dates mentioned there, even if we do not know anything about the Vaishnav or events mentioned there, we can at least give 'jay' to them—that also brings some good sukriti, some purification to us. Seeing the calendar and taking devotees' names early in the morning, from the beginning of the day, is very good for all devotees."
"Wake up, look into the calendar and give 'jay' to your Guru and Vaishnavs. Always pay obeisance to your Guru and Vaishnavs when you wake up in the morning, always give them 'jay'. Always keep faith and show respect to them. Always see the calendar—whose appearance day it is, whose disappearance day it is. Even if you cannot make a festival, at least you can give them 'jay', it will bring you benefit. When you give 'jay' to your Guru and Vaishnavs, it brings you sukriti. For example, today is the disappearance day of a Vaishnav—give 'jay' to him, remember him. We must always remember the words of Vaishnavs. If I remember the words of Vaishnavs, I get some benefit, some deposit through that."

Keep Yourself
On Track
"Those who have wealth should serve with wealth; those who have a body should
serve with their body; those who have a mind should serve with their mind;
those who have life in them should serve with their life. Whatever your
capacity is, whatever your qualification is, everyone must serve your Guru in
that capacity. Actually, we have no qualification: Gurudev's mercy is
everything. How can we get that mercy?"

Prabhupad, publisher of Nadiya Prakash; later, after Sripad B.V. Tirtha

If you remember the glories of Vaishnavs, if you speak about the glories of Vaishnavs, they can rescue you from all kinds of material bondage. We have heard a hundred times that if we glorify Vaishnavs, it gives great benefit, but even though we have heard it a thousand times, how much are we able to glorify Vaishnavs from our heart? How much can we serve Vaishnavs with heart and soul? This is the question."
CENTENARY ANTHOLOGY:
Part 2. Chapter 13. The Harmonizing Spirit
"Jesus's vision to Judas was something like: 'I am exploiting you, Judas.
It is not that you are exploiting me, rather I am utilising you as a traitor
to show the greatness of my life to the future world. I knew you were a
traitor, but I did not disclose you. I still took you within my group of
followers knowing full well that I am exploiting you.'" In perfect vision, in
the full-fledged consideration, every atom is helping the Pastimes of
Krishna. Whether it is direct or indirect—and although it seems to be
indirect at present, a deeper vision will reveal that it is coming towards
direct service."
The last recorded Hari-katha and Guidance of Sri Gurupadpadma:
Be Exclusive,
One-Pointed
[Part 3 | 2 May 2021]
"If you think about good things, then all bad things will automatically be
removed from you. Do not worry so much about this. When you think some
anartha is coming, you must give more and more attention to
practising—concentrate your mind on practising."
Sadhus' Fight
[Part 2 | 2 May 2021]
"This is a battlefield. We will not run away from the battlefield—we will
always stand and fight against Maya. You can see everywhere that finally
demons are always defeated by the sadhu. Om is always at the side of a
sadhu. Please you all take care yourself. In this situation, everybody
should practise on their own, do not be disheartened."
Take Care of Yourself
[Part 1 | 2 May 2021]
"...This is the situation now—we must all be careful. We must chant more and
more, we must preach more and more, and we must practise more and more.
Always continue following all the rules and regulations—we must distribute
the teachings that we have got from our Gurudev to others."
[২ মে ২০২১] "এটা যুদ্ধক্ষেত্র । আমরা যুদ্ধক্ষেত্র থেকে কখনও পালিয়ে যাব না—আমরা দাঁড়িয়ে থাকব আর মায়ার বিরুদ্ধে যুদ্ধ করব । সর্বত্রই দেখতে পাবেন যে, অসুররা সব সময় সাধুর দ্বারা পরাজিত হন । যেদিকে সাধু, সেইদিকে সব সময় ওঁ থাকে । দয়া করে নিজেদের দেখাশোনা করুন । এই অবস্থায় সকলের নিজেই সাধন করতে হয়, নিরুৎসাহিত হন না ।"

In honour of the holy divine appearance day of Srila B.S. Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj:
gurvvabhista-supurakam guru-ganair asisa-sambhusitam "I offer my obeisance unto he who perfectly fulfils his Gurudev's most cherished desires; who is fully adorned with the blessings of his Gurudev’s associates; who is expert in all aspects of Vedic knowledge, both conceivable and inconceivable; who is the pre-eminent follower of Srila Rupa Goswami Prabhu's line; who is known as 'Govinda'—Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj; whose beautiful, effulgent, exalted form is infused with pure devotion; who is the Guru of the entire universe; and who is the giver of the seed of divine love for the Supreme Lord." |

Question: It seems that we have one type of fear that having got some connection with your self we may lose that at death. I do not want to have connection with anyone else, I want to stay with you. So, I feel some type of fear... Srila B.S. Govinda Dev-Goswami Maharaj: Fear? But why have fear? I cannot understand it. Devotee: Because if we do not finish our sadhana nicely, then next life we do not know where we will go—we may not find Govinda Maharaj there. Srila Govinda Maharaj: What do you think about Govinda Maharaj? Devotee: We think that we want to serve you. Srila Govinda Maharaj: No, it is okay that you want to serve Govinda Maharaj, but what do you think about Govinda Maharaj? He is your guru, but in which form do you think about him? Do you think that Govinda Maharaj is a mundane man or an incarnation of the Lord coming in front of you to give you connection with Him? If you think he is an incarnation of the Lord, then he cannot leave your heart and you cannot leave your Lord. Even if you die, you will get that connection in another form, perhaps, but you will not be able to leave your Lord. When you have faith that the Lord always lives with you, then there will be no fear. That is the main thing. By the mercy of Vaishnavs I also always feel that my Srila Guru Maharaj (Srila B.R. Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj) is present with us. By the mercy of Vaishnavs and the supremacy of Srila Guru Maharaj, such feeling always comes to us that Srila Guru Maharaj has not left us, that he is with us. I have service of Srila Guru Maharaj, and I must do that. Service to Srila Guru Maharaj is my only goal of life, and whichever way that service comes to me, I will try to serve. Devotee: In my next life, I want to forever be a blade of grass wherever you walk... Srila Govinda Maharaj: I do not want to wait for the next life. Actually, we must finish all our job here this life, then we shall all go to Goloka! (8 June 1992) |

Today in the calendar:
Krishna Chaturthi. Disappearance festival of the founder of the Sri Chaitanya
Math and worldwide Sri Gaudiya Maths, Bhagavan Sri Srila Bhakti Siddhanta
Saraswati Goswami Prabhupad.
His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad Srila B.N. Acharya Maharaj: "Even if you do not know anything about the Vaishnav mentioned in the calendar, you must still give them 'jay' on this day. We must always remember disappearance and appearance days of all Vaishnavs. If we can remember such personalities, such great souls, it will bring a great benefit to our spiritual life. If you remember the glories of Vaishnavs, if you speak about the glories of Vaishnavs, they can rescue you from all kinds of material bondage. We have heard a hundred times that if we glorify Vaishnavs, it gives great benefit, but even though we have heard it a thousand times, how much are we able to glorify Vaishnavs from our heart? How much can we serve Vaishnavs with heart and soul? This is the question."
