[Guest guest]

Real Humility gives us Gauranga sambandha

for the mercy of Lord Nityananda

the book Gauranga Dharma is the key

 

I am sure Gauranga Dharma will spread more solidly

and tangibly

when the book is distributed far and wide and in many languages

from all the various scriptures

 

Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada

said that making money on the books

is like professionally recititation of Bhagavatam

I will personally die but never make any money on the books!!

 

the subline writings of the acharyas and scriputres are not ours

how can we earn on that.

 

no copyrights and no business.

 

how can you do business on something which actually is not coming from you

It is coming from the Lord and the acharyas

to spread quickly!!

 

but we want to build the temple of the Nityananda and Gauranga

Mantrarajas and the Hare Krishna Mahamantra in everyone's hearts,

 

A temple in every home in every heart

Yes structures cause despair, politics and aparadha

that is why Lord Gauranga did not

build any personally.

 

Should a renounced Vaisnava build mathas or asramas? Renounced

Vaisnavas should not endeavor to build mathas or asramas, because

this will entangle them in worldly matters. (Sajjana Tosani 11/12)

 

it even enttagles householders I have seen

they become attached to power and position

and maintainence is the biggest problem

 

In Gauranga Dharma we can have all our preaching centers as rented

as Shrila Prabhupada and Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura

Prabhupada suggested

 

so in case the preaching stops due to problems it can be give up

no investments and no commitments,

 

wherever there is life the preaching will go on

and where there is no life let it be given up.

 

we are not simply construction workers

we can rent a hall for the Sunday feast once in a week

 

and the weekly programs can be conducted in a big home of the

grihasthas and daily programs

because were there are properties then there is politics

so just rent.

 

Shrila Prabhupada said that his guru maharaja wanted to always rent

so that as long as the devotees are enthusiastic the preaching will

go on

we are more interested in sankirtana

Their Lordships Shri Shri Nityananda-Gauranga

where there are many devotees and brahmanas to assist

Their Lordships Shri Shri Radha Krishna can be there

only in major places.

 

Deity worship should be very simple

Their Lordships Shri Shri Nityananda-Gauranga

are happy with sankirtanaaaaaaa

That is their only food

 

Yes house Deities with simple Deity worship

two Aratis morning and evening and offerings

and lots of preaching and kirtana

 

the Yuga Dharma for this age is preaching and spreading of Nama

Deity Worship should not be so elaborate as to get no time for

spreading Nama.
