Always say positive things and, on Facebook, block those who make negative comments. Even a blade of grass is suffering in the ocean of material sadness. The material world is full of lust, anger and criticism. Sing the holy names! Don’t see anyone’s faults, just see your own faults. Facebook is full of insults. Whoever commits offences is a disciple of Kali Maharaja, he is not a disciple of Srila Gurudeva Vana Gosvami Maharaja! Do not comment or retaliate against offensive comments...

Sloka: tṛṇād api sunīcenataror api sahiṣṇunā (Siksastaka 3). Mahaprabhu said that in Kali-yuga, the only sadhana is harinama. Dvadasi, the day after ekadasi, is very auspicious, it is the day of Vaisnava-seva. We only receive the pious merits of ekadasi when we break the fast at the right time. There are ten types of offences when chanting the holy names (nama aparadha). The first offence is satāṁ nindā. Nama Prabhu does not tolerate anyone who criticises the Vaisnavas. The second offence is...

20 Oct 2023 evening – Sadhu-sanga and Nama Sankirtana are Very Powerful (English) – Auckland, New Zealand | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

October 20, 2023 6:20 PM

Human life is very rare, there is no guarantee that we will get a human body again; sadhu-sanga is our only hope. Association with the sadhu, and listening to harikatha, are the only process to conquer Maya, in this Kali-yuga. Our aim is how to serve Guru and Krsna. How to chant the holy names? Forsaking all offences. Sadhu-sanga and nama-sankirtana are very powerful. By chanting the holy names with the sadhu, potency will come. There is only one God. He has many names. The holy names are the...

16 Oct 2023 evening – Where the Jivas Come From (English) – Christchurch, New Zealand | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

October 16, 2023 7:36 PM

The jivas manifest out of Krsna’s marginal potency, tatastha-sakti. The two functions of Maya-devi that cover the jiva: viksepa-atmika-vrtti and avarana-atmika-vrtti. The three bodies of the jiva and the three modes of the nature of the material world. Through sadhu-sanga we get the opportunity to come out of this cycle of repeated birth and death. Two verses: brahmāṇḍa bhramite kona bhāgyavān; mālī hañā kare sei bīja āropaṇa (CC Madhya-lila 19.151-152). The nine limbs of bhakti. Verse:...

14 Oct 2023 morning – The Prema of the Gopis (Hindi) – Brisbane, Australia | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

October 14, 2023 9:17 AM

The prema in the heart of the sadhu is reflected in the heart of the disciple who has no offences. The example of the stone reflecting the brightness of the sun, surya kant mani. The cleaner the heart, the more the bhava of the sadhu will be reflected in it. About a lila from the Venu Gita, when the gopis suffered separation from Krsna. On the logic of economic policy. The prema in the hearts of the queens of Dvaraka. Both the aroma of camphor in a small container and a lighted ghee lamp can be...
