seeing through the eyes of scriptures

flowers alone will not please Srila Bhaktivnoda Thakura!

dear devotees Please accept my humble obaisences All glories to Srila Prabhupada Many devotees talk about Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura and think their offerings of flowers will be enough on his holy disapperance day: Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura about chanting 64 rounds. Sadhu-vritti, Sajjana Toshani 11/12: tinei sad-grihastha-jini pratyah laksha-nama grahana karena, tanhara grihei shuddha-vaishnava-gana prasada grahana karibena. “Only those devotees are sad-grihasthas (true and ideal householders) who chant 1,00,000 names of Krishna (64 rounds) daily. The pure devotees should accept prasada (foodstuffs) only in the homes of these sad-grihasthas and nowhere else so what to speak for grhasthas this is certainly the standard for sannyasis and brahmacaries also ,Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupada stated those who do not chant 64 rounds daily are pattita ,fallen in Hari-nama-cintamani Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura has stated: mane habe-aja laksha nama ye kariba; krame krame tina laksha nama ye smariba. mahagraha habe citte namera sankhyaya; acire jabe jadya sadhura kripaya. “When one’s mind desires to chant and remember one hundred thousand holy names (64 rounds) daily and furthur desires to slowly increase it to three hundred thousand and when one’s mind becomes very attached and eager to complete the fixed number of rounds daily and pushes one to complete the sankhya everyday, then it is understood that very soon the laziness or apathy in chanting the Hare Krishna maha-mantra will vanish by the mercy of the devotees and one’s chanting will bring one the desired fruit of pure love for Krishna.” The question are we taking advantage of his many holy books such as Caitanya Siksamrta ,Jaiva Dharma, Kalyana Kalpa Taru,Saranagati etc are you chanting minimum 64 rounds daily? These questiones should be asked ,
