Dutch society enriched with Vedic culture - Bhakti Caru Swami

24/7/12 'We offer the talisman for happiness that leads also to the fulfilment of the human form of life', declared His Holiness Bhakti Caru Swami Maharaj appealing the audience on the 10th year celebration of the Naamhat in Boxtel, The Netherlands.

If one wants to practice physics one has to approach a Physician, if one wants to learn music one to learn it from a musician. Just opening  a book to learn something shall not be sufficient for a successful result. So, similarly if one wants to know the science of the soul, whose natural position is blissful, being it the part and parcel of the supreme divine, the Lord Krishna, one has to go and listen to the transcendentalist who is linked to the disciplic succession. As mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita, chapter 4 of As It Is version, the purest of the renderings, Swami appealed the congregation of people from various background to try to go beyound the bodily concept of life and develop the divine nature, spiritual, so that the hankering for the happiness can be fulfilled. In the bodily concept of life one sees only the differences in human. Yet trying to enjoy, but being this a material and temporary, their search for happiness will be flickering and ends with frustration. Instead, if one learns the transcendental wisdom from the Vedic literature, rendered in hundred of languages, without any personal motives by His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, directly linked to disciplic succssion with the Lord Krishna, one attains the trancendental happiness in this life and make the human form of life a success. Peace in the society can prevail through this approach. Its beyound bias and everyone irrespective of their faith and background are welcomed with love, said Swami Maharaj.

The congregation included people from different nationalities and background, namely, Dutch and  Belgians, few Nepalese and Bhutanese and a promiment figure from the Saibaba tradition, saint Premananda. More than 70 people attenden the program that marked 10th anniversary of Naamhat Boxtel, that  has been actively integrating the Vedic cultural values in the Dutch society.

Guru Maharaj Bhakti Caru Swami rendered the message of the revealed literatures, the Vedas, mainly from the Bhagavad Gita As It Is with interactive approach.There was constant flow of questions and answers. More than two hours long exchange of the transcendental wisdom ended with bhajan kirtan and Gaura arati. Then followed sumptious vegetarian dinner.

All the attendants felt a level of transcendental bliss during this program and expressed the important valuse the Naamhat has shared with great success. Naamhat means a scheduled divine market for the public making the commodities for the spiritual welbeing easily available.This type of program continues every third Saturdays however the tenth anniversary graced by His Holiness was unprecendeted one that will be cherished in the heart of the devotees ever after.

Een kort omschrijving Ekadasi

In elke maand zijn er twee Ekadasi. Ekadasi betekent letterlijk de 11e van de dag voor volle maan en nieuwe maan. Deze dag is ook als een Madhava tithi genoemd, de favorite dag van de Heer Krishna. Om  Ekadasi  volledig na te leven, zoals Ambarisha Maharaja dat deed, is erg zeldzaam. We zouden het zo moeten proberen te doen, maar worden beïnvloedt door dit huidige tijdperk, Kali- yuga . Maharaja Ambarisha leefde in Satya- yuga , en hij was zo sterk dat hij een jaar lang zou hebben kunnen vasten zonder te slapen, terwijl hij op één been zou staan, zonder water te drinken of zelfs maar adem te halen. In Kali- yuga  zijn we echter noch sterk noch vergevorderd; maar we zijn toch fortuinlijk. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu heeft uitgelegd dat als we hongerig zijn op  Ekadasi , we wat fruit, sap of melk mogen nemen. We dienen niet voortdurend te eten. Het is niet zo dat we een liter van een bepaalde soort sap drinken, en een half uur later weer een ander soort sap nemen, om daarna binnen een

Offerings to His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Maharaj

HH Jayapataka Maharaj I was very fortunate to have a long and intimate association with His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Maharaja since I joined ISKCON. Undoubtedly he is one of the most exemplary leaders of ISKCON today. With the sincerity he is serving Srila Prabhupada is extremely praiseworthy. As a matter of fact ever since he met Srila Prabhupda he offered himself completely to his service and the way he is serving him till today is a wonderful example for all of us. In the early days in Mayapur there were not so many devotees. Therefore, we had the oportunity to have a very close relationship with each other. Although he was the leader of Maypur, he was very humble and carin

The time to harvest the spiritual and the material yeilds - Kartik

The auspicious month of Kartik, (8th October to 19th November) more popular known as the Month of Damodara, is here once again heralding the spiritually enlivening ‘Festival of Lights’. Its the month for harvesting material yeild from the corn, maize and barley field and also harvest the stpiritual wealth by devotional service to Damodar. Mother Yasoda bound little mischievous Krishna with ropes to the grinding mortar for having stolen butter and thus He came to be known as Damodara. The significance is in that the Lord of the Universe can be bound only by the rope of pure love. During thus Damodara month, devotees get the opportunity to personally offer Arati to Lord Damodara with ghee lamps and sing the very enchanting ‘Damodara astakam’, to receive the special mercy of the Lord. The Glories Of Kartik month “Pure devotional service to Me which, because it places Me under My devotee’s dominion, is very difficult to attain, is easily attained by following this vow in Mathura dur
