    Hare Krishna! Accept my bow, my dear spiritual master. Glory to Guru and Gauranga. All glory to SrilaPrabhupada. Thank you so much for coming for me in this incarnation.

Chaitanya Chandra CharanPrabhu said only two words, but these two words still warm my soul: “Take care of the food.” Then in His book “The Evolution of Consciousness” I read that food for the spiritual soul is love for God. Without japayajna, Krishna katha, praises and prayers for the glory of Lord Sri Krishna, everything would have faded, the whole sadhana bhaktiwould have turned…
