09 May 2024 evening – Sadhu Sanga Mahima (English) – San Nicolao, Italy | Srila BV Vana Maharaja
“I am trying my best to satisfy the hearts of Srila Gurudeva and Guru Parampara.” ”I do not know the mercy of Radha Krsna, Nitai and Gouranga, nor of other Vaisnavas, I know the mercy of my Gurudeva.” Every disciple is indebted to his Gurudeva. In this material world, if you tell the truth, people start criticising. Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupada’s life was threatened.

08 May 2024 morning – Appearance Day of Sri Gadadhara Pandita (English) – San Nicolao, Italy | Srila BV Vana Maharaja
