He is giving a very important consideration about when ekadasi starts, and
in fact, it is what I thought myself. I hope that Bhanu Swami will not be
upset.

Here is what the Maharaj said:

>>Dear Harikesa Maharaja,

I am a member of your question and answer conference. Needless to say I
appreciate it very much and get enlightened with your wisdom. I very much
appreciate your
honest and straightforward answers. Recently there was a question on
Ekadasi and you
directed the questioner to get the answer from Bhanu Maharaja. One of your
disciples
provided the answer from Bhanu Maharaja that says that Ekadasi starts at
sunrise. However I would like to point out that this consideration that
Ekadasi starts at sunrise is the calculation of the smartas. The goswami
consideration is that it starts from Brahma Muhurta.
In Indian astrology it is a well-known controversy,. Hari Bhakti Vilas
clearly mentions
that Ekadasi begins with Brahma Muhurta. Needless to say that we are the
followers
of goswami calculation, and according to us Ekadasi should start from
Brahma
Muhurta - that is one hour and thirty-six minutes before sunrise. Instead
of throwing
this into your question and answer conference, I preferred to just let you
know. Please
consider what should be done about the answer.

Your servant,
Bhakti Charu Swami<<

Thank you very much Bhakti Caru Swami for this nice answer. We remain
your humble servants. Please continue to correct my foolishness and thus
assist me in my hard struggle to return to Krsna.
