foreword to Sri Narasimha

 

Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada brought this worship of Lord Narasimha to the west. On board Jaladutta in 1965 Srila Prabhupada had a dream of Krsna and His various incarnations protecting him. Srila Prabhupada had 2 heart attacks due to the rough sea journey and advanced age .

Lord Narasimha in Navadvipa and Vrindavan

In our Gaudiya line the most important place of worship of Lord Narasimha is in Nandagrama and in Godruma Dvipa, in Navadvipa   (Narasimha palli)  both is identical, Why is Narasimha being worshipped in Nandagrama ? Because Garga Muni asked Nanda Maharaja, that he had the worship of Lord Narasimha established in Nandagrama. No Demons ever attacked Krsna in Nanda Grama itself.

Radha and Krishna Engage in Nocturnal Pastimes

(10:48 p.m. - 3:36 a.m.)

 

 

Out of love for Her sakhis, Shri Radhika tried to arrange for their meeting with Krishna also, so She told Him, "O Priyatama, in this forest the greatly offensive king Cupid reigns, piercing My girlfriends, who are searching for You, with his arrows."

 

Acyuta said, "O You who are showered with the matchless nectar of affection, You know that it is My…

Advaita Prakash chapter 3

Chapter Three

All glories to Shri Chaitanya! All glories to Sitanatha! All glories to Nityananda, along with all the devotees!

One day Advaita Prabhu wrote a letter and sent it with someone to His parents in Lauda-dhama. Kuvera Acarya had looked for his son everywhere and was feeling great distress out of separation.
