kalachandji katha banner

Wednesday, March 31st through Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

From Srila Prabhupada:
The bhaktas, they are not after any reward from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is difference between bhakti and other demigod worship. Just like Caitanya Mahaprabhu. He is teaching us bhakti. He says, na dhanam na janam na sundarim kavitam va jagad-isa kamaye: "My Lord, I do not wish to ask from You opulence, riches, nice wife or many followers." These are material opulences. So Caitanya Mahaprabhu says, "I do not want all these things." That is the desire of devotee. He doesn't want even liberation. Janmani janmani. He wants to serve the lotus feet of the Lord birth after birth. That is his aspiration. -- "Hear, Talk, Chant, Eat, Work, Sleep, Walk About Krsna," April 1, 1974, Bombay, Bhagavad-gita 4.12

Appreciating Kalachandji's Community
My name is Melissa. I was at Kalachandji's yesterday, 3/24/10, with my
English Professor Dr. Michael Raines and our World Literature class. I
just wanted to say thank you for a beautiful experience. The Palace was
amazing and the food was delicious. I enjoyed the experience very much. I wish we had more time to ask more questions and get a bit deeper into the
Philosophy and practice behind it. Once again thank you for the experience,  I look forward to going back and enjoying another peaceful evening.
