Remembering Gaura Purnima Dear devotees, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and all the other Vaisnavas. I am writing just a short note about my simple realizations to share with everyone. Recently, when many of the devotees went to Mayapur, I stayed back to cover their services. But after seeing the photos of the installations of the Panca Tattva Deities, I felt as if I were there in Mayapur. In fact, this is the proof that everyone has now witnessed with his or her own eyes the appearance of the Panca Tattva Deities. They are in Their full size. This means that They have come to pour Their complete mercy upon all, at a time when the world is filled with people who are overcome by the stress of materialistic life, with anxiety constantly coming from every direction of material life. The newspapers are filled with reports of this disastrous existence. On the other hand, the devotees of ISKCON have the real news, the positive news of the Panca Tattva Deities, news of the most amazing maha abhisek being performed in the presence of many devotees from around the globe, of ecstatic kirtans led with great devotional feeling by wonderful Vaisnavas and sannyasis. This is yet another beginning of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's revolution for rewakening the eternal love of the conditioned jivas for Krsna. After seeing such grand installation ceremonies, who would not melt in ecstatic love of Godhead? Even a stonehearted person would melt in spiritual emotions. Lord Caitanya's appearance in a huge size shows that the International Society for Krsna Consciousness is the movement recognized by the previous acaryas and all of the Vaisnavas. We must serve and work together to spread the mission of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu wherever we are. This is how Srila Prabhupada and the previous acaryas and all of the other Vaisnavas will be pleased. Hare Krsna! Your servant, © dipika.org April 12, 2004 |
