His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad

Today is the appearance day of Nitai Gaurachandra in Puri.

Actually, you know that Deities always come through devotees. Nitai Gaura eagerly came in Kalna through a devotee's hand—through Gauri Das Pandit's hand; and our Gaura Nitai in Puri came through Gurudev's hand. The Lord takes the hand of His devotee and comes in the form of a Deity...

Deity can talk, Deity bears witness, Deity is nondifferent from Krishna of Vrindavan (saksad Vrajendra Nandan)—the Lord Himself comes in the form of a Deity. What does Lord Krishna come for? What do Gaura Nitai come for? To distribute, to spread out all mercy. Why did Srila Sridhar Maharaj make this temple here and established Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Gandharva Govindasundar? What is the benefit?

Today is a very nice day, Gaura Nitai's manifestation festival. When the Deities were installed, there was a big festival at that time—the King of Odisha also came to the inauguration ceremony.

Attachment To Prasadam
'The festival in Ekachakra was very successful, and we are also very happy that we could give some prasadam to the devotees. Yesterday by the evening everything had finished, but still, at 5-6 o'clock people came asking for a drop of prasadam.'

 

Thakura vaisnava-gana
'Destiny is very powerful. It does not listen to my knowledge of religion and always binds me with the ropes of karma. I do not see even a trace of hope. All I see is hardship. Thus helpless and distressed, I cry.'
ঠাকুর বৈষ্ণবগণ

It is very rare—but if you follow properly, you can be a proper devotee.
