Foreword to the First Edition

 

I am feeling very fortunate to have come within the personal association of Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj, our Srila Guru Maharaj, and now to have this chance to present this introductory booklet. Throughout his whole life, Srila Guru Maharaj practised what he preached. Sincere practitioners are themselves an introduction to the subject of genuine, joyful, spiritual life, but they are not able to visit everyone personally. Therefore, we are taking the opportunity afforded by the modern scientific age to print books to broadcast such wisdom widely. The vibration emanating from a printing press in this way can not only beneficially influence this mundane world but can also even conquer the souls already established in the spiritual plane. It is, therefore, very joyful and satisfying to see the manifestation of this publication, Home Comfort (An Introduction to Inner Fulfilment). It is a selection from our Divine Master’s lectures introducing the subject of theistic spiritual life—for the service of his Divine Mission, it has been reproduced in a printed form by the sincere efforts of the student practitioners here.

Up until his last days in this mundane plane, Srila Guru Maharaj would bestow his mercy upon conditioned souls in the form of lectures, which he would sometimes deliver continuously hour after hour. From his example, we can understand the injunction of the scriptures that until our last breath we must try to practise service to the transcendental service world and give that same opportunity to others.

If anyone carefully reads this booklet with sincerity, they must be benefitted and receive inspiration, as well as an opportunity, to reach that life of true inner fulfilment.

Humbly,
Swami B.S. Govinda

who is a devotee and who is not just by their external behaviour.
