01 Apr 2024 midday – The Difference Between Seva and Aparadha (Bengali) – Kashinagar, India | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

Renunciation only happens when the desire for sense gratification ends. It is a great offence (aparadha) to receive money in the name of Krsna, or the Temple, and use it to maintain the enjoyment of your family. There is a specific type of hell only for those who practise these activities. There is...

31 Mar 2024 evening – The Birth of Sukadeva Gosvami (Bengali) – Kashinagar, India | Srila BV Vana Maharaja
Srimati Radhika gives clear instructions to Sukadeva Gosvami. Lila from when Siva explains Srimad Bhagavatam to Parvati Devi and Sukadeva Gosvami listens. History of the birth of Sukadeva Goswami. The false ego makes us think that we are the body, and material attachment is the cause of all sadness. Sloka: jīvera svarūpa haya kṛṣṇera nitya-dāsa (CC Madhya-lila 20.108-109).
