Команда ХВП поздравляет с Гаура-пурнимой 2019
- TOVP.org
В Гаура-пурниму 2022 года или ориентировочно в это время все члены ИСККОН будут с упоением вместе праздновать открытие величественного Храма Ведического Планетария во всемирной штаб-квартире ИСККОН в Шридхам Майяпуре в честь 50-ой годовщины его учреждения, и наши возлюбленные майяпурские Божества наконец-то переедут в Свой долгожданный новый дом.
После двенадцати лет планирования, строительства и сбора средств, а также крови, пота и слез многих преданных, мы наконец-то совершим это совместное подношение Шриле Прабхупаде, возвестив о его величии и триумфе по всей вселенной.
В этом году мы празднуем Гаура-пурниму именно с таким устремлением в наших сердцах. Хотя явление Шри Чайтаньи Махапрабху преследовало множество целей, в его основе лежало желание Господа освободить все души через харинама-санкиртану. В своих молитвах, обращённых к Господу, Шри Адвайта Ачарья просил Его, чтобы Он сошел на Землю именно с этой целью. ХВП также будет выполнять множество задач, но, в первую очередь, в храме будет располагаться самый большой в мире зал для киртана, который сможет одновременно вместить 10 000 преданных. Несомненно, все, кто посетит ХВП, смогут ощутить могущество Нама-аватары, и после этого, погруженные в трансцендентное блаженство, разъедутся по разным частям света, чтобы привести больше падших душ к лотосным стопам Господа.
В это время года команда ХВП призывает всех преданных оказать финансовую помощь и воспользоваться этой возможностью, которая выпадает раз во много жизней, чтобы помочь нам проявить этот храм. Мы просим тех, кто еще не жертвовал, внести свой вклад. Если вы ещё не выплатили полностью своё пожертвование, пожалуйста, выплатите его или сделайте очень крупный платеж. Если вы уже жертвовали, то прислушайтесь к своему сердцу, возможно, вы решите поддержать нас снова. Мы рассчитываем на то, что каждый внесет свою посильную лепту, маленькую или большую, для осуществления этой цели, и мы выражаем всем свою признательность за вашу помощь.
Не так давно мы запустили кампанию Столпы Преданности, чтобы предоставить спонсорам возможность профинансировать одну из 108 колонн внутри храма. Если к вам пришло такое воодушевление, пожалуйста, воспользуйтесь этой возможность служения во время Гаура-пурнимы. Среди прочих видов пожертвований – кирпичи Махапрабху и Гуру-парампары и другие уровни участия.
Пожалуйста, перейдите по ссылке ниже и сделайте пожертвование уже сегодня: https://tovp.org/donate/seva-opportunities/

Happy Gaura Purnima 2019 from the TOVP Team
- TOVP.org
On or around Gaura Purnima 2022 all of ISKCON will ecstatically celebrate together the Grand Opening of the magnificent Temple of the Vedic Planetarium at the World Headquarters of ISKCON in Sridham Mayapur on its 50th Anniversary, and our beloved Mayapur Deities will at last be moved into Their long-awaited new home.
After twelve years of planning, execution and fundraising mixed with the blood, sweat and tears of many, we will finally make this combined offering to Srila Prabhupada, increasing his glory and victory further throughout the universe.
This year, we celebrate Gaur Purnima with that objective embedded in our hearts. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s appearance, while having many purposes, has at its core the deliverance of all souls through Harinama sankirtana. The prayers of Sri Advaita Acharya were specifically for the Lord to descend for this purpose. The TOVP will also have multiple purposes, but foremost it will be the grandest kirtan hall in the world, capable of holding 10,000 devotees at any one time. The power of the Nama Avatar will assuredly be felt by all who visit the TOVP, and they will one and all leave for other parts of the world inspired with transcendental bliss to deliver more fallen souls to the Lord’s lotus feet.
During this time of the year the TOVP Team calls on all devotees to give their financial assistance and participate in this once-in-many-lifetimes opportunity to help manifest the temple. We encourage those who haven’t yet donated to please do so. If you have an outstanding balance on your pledge, please pay it off or make an extra-large payment. If you’ve already given, search your heart and consider giving again. We are counting on one and all to do their part, large or small, towards this purpose, and we gratefully acknowledge everyone for their help.
Most recently we launched the Pillars of Devotion Campaign to offer donors the opportunity to sponsor one of the 108 pillars inside the temple. If you feel so inspired, please take advantage of this seva opportunity during Gaura Purnima time. There are also the Mahaprabhu and Guru Parampara bricks, and many other levels of offering.
Please go to the link below and make your donation today: https://tovp.org/donate/seva-opportunities/

Sri Sri Radha-Londonisvara are some of ISKCON’s famous Deities, in fact Srila Prabhupada’s Lilamrita recalls the story of Their installation with great affection. Therefore as a result the Deity worship department at our Temple is always striving to serve Their most beautiful Lordships with ever increasing love and devotion. One way in which this endeavour is manifest is through constant training. As such, we recently held the course ‘Introduction to Pujari’, facilitated by the our Head Priest HG Murli Manohara dasa.

Meet Divya Alter, the chef, cookbook author and co-owner of Divya's Kitchen, the first Ayurvedic restaurant in New York City, operating in the East Village at the ground floor of the Bhakti Center, fully devoted to your feelings. Feelings matter in food. Moreso, Divya explains, they matter when it comes to digestion. Many of us suffer or have suffered after a meal because we did not honor this simple rule: Eat for how you feel. Meaning, eat mindfully for balance to maximize wellness.
Dare to Think of Krsna as Your Friend!

Dare to Think of Krsna as Your Friend!
HH Sacinandana Swami: For many devotees in our movement, Krsna is anything but a friend. They do not dare to think in this direction. Some feel it is sahajiyaism, or taking things too lightly, while others think, “He is so far away and inaccessible. A friend is someone I can call with my smartphone or write a whatsapp to. Krsna is a friend? Is this just a swami-hype? How can we relate to this?” My dear devotees, you can only find peace in your life if you become aware that:

Every five years the Mayapur devotees organise a Maha Abhiseka for Sri Panca Tattva during the festival time. There were so many devotees and guests who came that they couldn’t all fit into the temple but spilled outside by the thousands.
This year I was most fortunate because I was asked by the management to help bathe Sri Gadadhara Pandit. We all climbed up stairs at the back of the deities onto a large platform just behind Them so we could perform the abhiseka.

Become Prabhupada?
→ Dandavats

"So you want to become Prabhupada?" These words of a senior devotee rang in my ears, and I started pondering. He had asked me about the purpose of my stay in Mayapur. I told him that I'm attending the Bhaktivedanta Course. Although appreciating his fervor, I have mixed feelings regarding the connotations of his question, some of which I'll address in this thesis. Reflecting on his undertone, I conclude the topic must be worthy to explore, if it stirs up such a reaction. As devotees in ISKCON we often casually use the term "Bhaktivedanta" dozens of times daily. Are we doing this simply mindlessly, or do we fully understand the real meaning and significance of Bhaktivedanta? Continue reading "Become Prabhupada?

For this project we got 100% support from the police, the Mayor, local politicians, local charities, local businesses, supermarkets, football clubs and one unique aspect of the project is we made solid friendships with some ministers from a Christian church and we are working together as a serious team. The cafe is beautiful, clean and friendly. So many people came for the opening ceremony that many couldn't get through the door. The Mayor loved the taste of so many different preps and remarked that only people who serve out of love can produce such food. Continue reading "Grand Opening of Unique Cafe in Watford UK

The Lord’s Potencies are inconceivable (acintya): That which cannot be thought of, understood, imagined or believed. While taking Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma to Mathura, and taking bath in the Yamunā, what Akrura saw in the water was four-armed Lord Vāsudeva. His complexion was dark blue like a fresh raincloud, He wore yellow garments and He lay on the lap of thousand-hooded Ananta Śeṣa. Lord Vāsudeva was receiving the prayers of perfected beings, celestial serpents and demons, and He was encircled by His personal attendants. Continue reading "Potencies of Lord Sri Krishna

Dhruva Maharaja, by HH Niranjana Swami.
SB 4.9.11: Dhruva Maharaja continued: O unlimited Lord, kindly bless me so that I may associate with great devotees who engage in Your transcendental loving service constantly, as the waves of a river constantly flow. Such transcendental devotees are completely situated in an uncontaminated state of life. By the process of devotional service I shall surely be able to cross the nescient ocean of material existence, which is filled with the waves of blazing, firelike dangers. It will be very easy for me, for I am becoming mad to hear about Your transcendental qualities and pastimes, which are eternally existent.
