When Srila Prabhupada came to America, he came to establish an entirely new frontier of preaching Gaudiya Viashnavism. No Gaudiya Vaishnava has ever been to America to establish this philosophy. It was very similar for Goswami Maharaj to go to mainland China to establish Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s Movement, a brand-new frontier, a country with over one billion people, a place where religion is in out lord, communism. In Mayapur about 30 oriental people from Taiwan came to Sri Mayapur Dham, simply to have the purifying darshan of Srila Goswami Maharaj. It became one of the highlights of the whole festival for all of us to see these people coming from the Chinese nations, chanting and dancing in the temple. Srila Tamal Krishna Maharaj, during Prabhupada’s life and after Prabhupada’s departure was the puppet in his hands, to do the impossible.  One of the most successful devotee communities in all of America and in all the western worlds is Dallas and Houston, large congregation, beautiful temple in both places. Those devotees there, year after year will personally trained and nourished by Srila Goswami Maharaj, two of the most important temples of our society in the western world.

Prayers of the Vaisnava Acaryas II - Sri Gurvastakam | 29 Nov 2020

But Lord Varaha, what technology he has. He could roar with such volume, it’ s heard through all the different, through the 14 planetary systems from satya loka down to patalaloka, when he roar’s everybody hears it. And the sages who are right next to him, it sounded very sweet. It sounded powerful but beautiful. So, this is the Lord’s achintya shakti, inconceivable potencies. When he roared and when they saw that everybody could hear it and it was so nice, it was so beautiful. It’s described that Lord Chaitanya, sometimes he would roar when he was in ecstasy with the volume of ten million lions. It was so powerful this roar that by his yoga maya potency, he had to enter every single person’s ears to protect it from blasted to pieces. And everyone it was loud but everyone liked it, it was beautiful, it was sweet. So, when they heard this and they saw this gigantic form, they all understood ‘this is Bhagavan, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Varaha dev.’ Haribol!

Appearance Day of Lord Varahadev

It is a beautiful story. How Narottama Das Thakur, he was crying in separation from the Lord and Lord Chaitanya who is most magnificent and merciful incarnation of Lord Krishna appeared to him in a dream and told him to go to Vrindavan. So, Narottama who is still a child, he left secretly through the forest. His father and mother sent detectives to search for him and they found him deep into the forest, all alone, traveling by footpaths from Kethuri, which is in Bangladesh to Vrindavan, I believe it’s over a thousand Kilo meters. And he was walking alone, where will he get food? Who will protect him? These concerns never even crossed to the footpath of his mind. He wass going to Vrindavan, the eternal land of Krishna, the place that so many unlimited saints have taken shelter of since time immemorial.

Offering by HH Radhanath Swami on Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami Maharaj's Disappearance Festival

Radhanath Swami is a Vaishnava sanyassi (a monk in a Krishna-bhakti lineage) and teacher of the devotional path of Bhakti-yoga. He is author of The Journey Home, a memoir of his search for spiritual truth. His teachings draw from the sacred texts of India such as The Bhagavad-gita, Srimad Bhagavatam, and Ramayana, and aim to reveal the practical application of the sacred traditions, while focusing on the shared essence which unites apparently disparate religious or spiritual paths.
Born Richard Slavin, on December 7, 1950, in his teens he came to confront a deep sense of alienation from suburban Chicago life and the civil injustices of mid-century America. At the age of nineteen, while on a summer trip to Europe, his internal struggles culminated in a commitment to search for God wherever it might lead him. Meditating on the Isle of Crete, he felt a supernatural calling and the next morning set off alone to find spiritual India. The Journey Home documents his odyssey as a penniless hitch-hiker though Greece, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and finally India. There he lived as a wandering ascetic, first amongst the forest dwelling Himalayan yogis and later amongst a wide variety of gurus and spiritual practitioners throughout India and Nepal. Ultimately, he was led to the holy town of Vrindavan, where he found his path amongst the Bhakti-yogis.
In Vrindavan he found the teacher he was searching for in A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977) the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), and representative of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, (the Krishna-bhakti tradition stemming from the 16th century mystic avatar Sri Chaitanya). In choosing Bhaktivedanta Swami, as his guru, Radhanath Swami felt compelled to shear his matted locks and reenter Western society with a mission to share the sacred wisdom he had received. This return exemplifies the form of devotional yoga which is at the heart of Radhanath Swami’s teachings, a spiritual practice expressed as tangible action meant to bring about personal fulfillment and benefit the world.
At the the age of 31 he took the monastic vows of a Vaishnava sanyassin and became known as Radhanath Swami.
Today Radhanath Swami travels regularly throughout India, Europe and North America, sharing the teachings of Bhakti-yoga. He resides much of the year at the Radha Gopinath Ashram in Chowpatty, Mumbai. For the past twenty-five years he has guided the community’s development and has directed a number of acclaimed social action projects including Midday Meals, which daily serves more than 260,000 plates of sanctified vegetarian food to the children of the slums of Mumbai. He has also worked to establish missionary hospitals and eye camps, eco-friendly farms, schools and ashrams, an orphanage, and a number of emergency relief programs throughout India.
