His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad

Kolkata-Worldwide, 18 April 2021, part 1

Dandavat. Last week on Sunday I was in Vrindavan, and today in the morning I came back to Kolkata. I started from Mathura yesterday in the morning and arrived in Kolkata very early in the morning today, it is not so many hours, about twenty-four.

I went to Vrindavan and Govardhan to make some little changes in the management there. That was my service in Vrindavan. This is why I suddenly left for Vrindavan.

This was my seva there because Gurudev told me to take care of his mission, that is why I had to go there. I always take care of all temples, particularly in Puri and Vrindavan. Now it is all very clean. This was the main service, and there was also other service. In his time, Gurudev said that he wanted to make a chabutara (hut) in Govardhan, and Uma Didi is taking good care of that chabutara. I saw she had made a big wall also because the neighbours had been causing disturbance, she did a good service. She also takes a very good care of all the trees, made a garden behind the temple.

In his time, Gurudev also said that it was necessary to keep one-two cows in Govardhan, so this time I also made one goshala and got two cows and two calves. The cows are giving a lot of milk, so it is not necessary to buy milk now. I got very big cows.

This was the main service in Vrindavan and Govardhan this time. I spent there about ten-seven days and came back this morning. Tomorrow I have a train to Siliguri. Every year I make Gurudev's festival here in different temples, but this year I want to stay in Siliguri. I always make the temple anniversary festival in Siliguri, but I could not go there last year because there was a lockdown right after Gaura Purnima. Besides, the preaching in Siliguri is not going on properly because there is no good preacher there. That is why I was thinking to stay there seven days and make Gurudev's festival there, it will also bring much happiness to the devotees in Siliguri, North Bengal. Because there is no proper preaching there, not so many devotees come from Siliguri.

Actually, a temple is for preaching. If there is no preaching, then it is very difficult. That is why I have to go there. My train is tomorrow. I only came to Kolkata today to have a little rest and to take some books from here to Siliguri. I also took some books for Vrindavan because almost all books had finished there. So, I have been resting today, some devotees also came and I spoke to them...
