Srila Giri Maharaja – Krishna’s appearance, Nanda Maharaja’s greatest gifts.
Date: 8/13/17
Dear Sriman Nila Madhava dasa,
Please accept my humble regards and well-wishes.
Tuesday we are celebrating Sri Krishna’s appearance. The following day is Sri Nandotsava, the day Sri Nanda Maharaja celebrated his son’s birth by distributing great quantities of his wealth in charity. That day also marks the appearance day of our Divine Master Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Maharaja. Therefore, we can consider Srila Swami Maharaja’s appearance to be the greatest gift of charity of Sri Nanda. Sri Krishna’s appearance “to annihilate the demons and establish the principals of religion” was fulfilled in our time by the appearance of Srila Prabhupada, who appeared to give everyone the gift of Sri Krishna in the form of Krishna consciousness.
In the time of Nanda Maharaja, he

Srila Giri Maharaja – “Your humble request.”
Date: 8/10/17
Dear Sriman Jagadananda dasa Adhikari,
Please accept my blessings and well-wishes in consonance with the wishes of my Divine Masters.
I know you have told me time and time again that if I have any questions to feel free to ask.
Yes. There is nothing wrong with your humble request that I direct your study with more specificity. Actually, I am the servant of my disciples, although appearances may seem to contradict that fact.
I find all our texts to be of great interest, worthy of thoughtful consideration and discussion, and vital to the understanding of my disciples. Therefore, I have not sought to push you too much in one particular direction for your study. My principal interest remains this: resist the temptation to explore texts not authored or published by our trinity of
On the observance of the disappearance of His Divine Grace Srila Bhakti Rakshaka Sridhara Deva-Goswami Maharaja, July 23, 2017.
Introduction:
The disappearance of Sri Guru reveals a great many things to those whose diligence applied to studying the event is sufficient to catch them. The day of his disappearance is a time to memorialize the greatness of Sri Gurudeva. The days following his disappearance are a time for those who proclaim his greatness to walk through the purificatory fire sparked by the event. Some will be burned by the fire while surviving it, others will be consumed by it, a few will emerge in a brilliant pure golden form as an example for all to follow.
So there may be disturbances, rather, we may say it should be, disturbance must come, because my most beloved Guru has withdrawn from amongst us. And should we like to live peacefully? Such a great curse, as it may

172 New Videos Of Srila Govinda Maharaja Just Added to the Archive!
One of the 172 new videos added to the Srila Govinda Maharaja Archive
We have just added 172 new videos to the Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev Goswami Maharaja Archive.
These videos were languishing in an old 1990s video tape format. Recently we were able to find a suitable encoder to allow us to upload them digitally.
No editing was done for content or duration. Each of these videos represent a single video tape. Each tape was ripped to MP4, with only slight corrections made for color and sound. Otherwise, they are presented here exactly as they were recorded during the 1990s and early 2000s.
We hope you find them as enlivening as we did while preparing them for this auspicious release.
Srila Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev Goswami Maharaja Ki Jai!
