In the quieter days after most of the pilgrims who attended the annual Gaura Purnima festival at the Sri Chaitanya Saraswat Math in Navadwip have left, the iMonk remains in the association of his guru.
Week 1
India: West Bengal: Navadwip
Our first service
Srila Gurudeva reminds us just how important it is to chant the Holy Name:
the very first service that he gave us at initiation.
Another reminder
We waste our lives seeking a shortcut to Krishna consciousness instead of
following this simple formula Srila Gurudeva gave us.
Week 2
India: West Bengal: Calcutta
Sadhana is also service
Because service is stressed above all else, we may think sadhana
is not important, but sadhana is also service to Srila
Gurudeva.
Week 3
India: West Bengal: Calcutta
Sevak Bhavan
Srila Gurudeva's humility gives us an idea of what an honor it is to be
allowed to stay in the servants' quarters (Sevak Bhavan).
Week 4+
India: West Bengal: Calcutta
Mind games
It's funny what we remember, isn't it? How will we keep these images and
ideas from subverting our consciousness at death?
