Question: Today in Alachua it is the appearance of Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur. What should our prayer be to him? Vijayaradha devi dasi
Guru maharaj: So you could pray to him that you can serve the guru parampara, Srila Prabhupad and satisfy the Lord. You can also pray to him that you can preach the message. He empowered P to go all over the world and spread Krishna consciousness. Prabhupad established 108 temples and so you can ask to be empowered to serve the guru parampara, preach the message of Lord C. You can ask him to forgive you for all offences, knowingly or unknowingly committed. These are a few things.
Question: Divya Govinda das: You mentioned that how on Govinda Dvadasi if you eat prasadam from Shantipur then you will get love of Godhead. (Guru maharaj said: I said pure devotion from Govinda). He is wondering how everyone goes there every year and still does not get love of Godhead?
Guru maharaj: Lord Caitanya said, one who takes prasadam at this place, on this thithi, in this place, in this thithi, gets bhakti for Govinda. That is the first step to get love of Krishna, to get pure devotion for the Lord. Next question.
The appearance day of Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur was the same day that Gaur Govinda Maharaj left? What about broadcasting in Mayapur TV? So tomorrow we will have both Facebook and Mayapur TV. Today is just Facebook. Any broadcasting in Bengali? Why not? There is translation now there is! FM. If anyone would like to offer prasadam, we can give that out.
Question: Kaivalya Sundari dd: How do you like your new quarters?
Guru maharaj: I am still getting used to it. How do you like it? Italian marble, glass room! Don’t lean too much on it, it may fall down!
Alright, thank you all very much. Haribol!
