- Stay Connected to the System!

08.24.10

Srila Bhaktivinod Thakura establishes that all activities must be executed according to the rules and regulations given by the chief trader, Lord Nithyananda Prabhu, or by His representatives at the head office.

Just as Lord Nithyananda setup a system with rules and regulations, Srila Prabhupada founded the worldwide ISKCON movement – with specific rules and regulations, a Governing Body Commission (GBC), temple residents, and so forth – so that the marketing and preaching of the Hare Krishna mantra would progress smoothly and cooperatively in a coordinated manner.

Here it is said that all goods should be received with authorization. Therefore anyone who preaches should be authorized by his spiritual master and the disciplic succession. All Nama Hattas and congregational preachers should be connected to ISKCON, thus always receiving Srila Prabhupada’s blessings. One should not desire to be independent from this society of Krishna’s devotees.

- Potency of Mayapur Dham!

08.18.10

In Kali-Yuga, the potency of the holy abode of Sri Navadvipa-dhama ever increases. At the time when Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura was preaching, the primary marketing of the holy name was occuring at Surabhi Kunja, in Godrumadvipa, one of the nine islands of Navadvipa. Lord Nithyananda had also done marketing there. Across the Jalangi River, just in front of Bhaktivinod Thakura’s house, Srila Prabhupada established the world headquarters of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness: Sri Mayapur Candrodaya Mandir.

Srila Prabhupada quoted Bhaktivinoda Thakura, who had said that Navadvipa is the most sacred region in the universe, and added that within Navadvipa-dhama the Sri Mayapur Candrodaya Mandira is the most auspicious and important place, for it is Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s karma-sthana, His field of activity. Srila Prabhupada explained that Lord Caitanya’s karma-sthana is even more sacred and important than His birthplace.

- The Transcendental Marketplace!

08.09.10

“The mercy of Lord Caitanya and Lord Nithyananda decends through Their devotees. Devotees who have received krsna-prema by the mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu are able to distribute this love of Godhead. Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura illustrates this process by using the analogy: ‘the transcendental marketplace of the Lord.

In compliance with Lord Caitanya’s order, everyone must accept Krishna consciousness and also share it with others. According to individual capacity, everyone should become a vehicle for spreading the hold name of Krishna. It is not a stereotyped process. Anyone can do it under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master, who functions as the representative of Lord Nithyananda, the original spiritual master.
