The Story of Sakshi Gopal and classes at ISV this week!

  

   Address: 951 S Bascom Avenue San Jose CA 95128 

 http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/

 

 

Dear Friends,

 

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making yesterday's Gaura Purnima festival a grand success. It was nostalgic as we celebrated our one of our last festivals at this location. The evening started with kirtans while the most wonderful abhishek ceremony was performed to the deity of Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu. HG Vaisesika Prabhu spoke so eloquently on the pastimes of the Lord Caitanya as depicted in Sri Caitanya Carimrita which was followed by Arotik and Prasadam. On this occasion, we also offered the astounding MSF results to our dear Srila Prabhupada and Their Lordships. Our deepest gratitude to all those who graciously donated tiles yesterday for the "Million Dollar Wall for Krishna" for the new temple construction. We will be moving to the new temple at Mountain View shortly. Stay tuned for more updates!

Priceless Articles! Special Auction at ISV: Srila Prabhupada's dhoti and gumsha and many more!

  

   Address: 951 S Bascom Avenue San Jose CA 95128 

http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/ 

 

 

PRICELESS ARTICLES: SRILA PRABHUPADA'S DHOTI AND OTHER ITEMS

 

Dear Friends,

 

One of the devotees in our congregation who is a disciple of Srila Prabhupada has put up for auction some precious items, including a set of Srila Prabhupada's original Srimad-Bhagavatams that Srila Prabhupada brought with him on the Jaladuta as well as a gumsha worn by Prabhupada. And there's more!

 

Now you can own these items, keep them in your home and worship them. There is an auction going on today here @ http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/auction/. And this auction will culminate on Gaura Purnima day (tomorrow) at ISV. The profits from the auction will go to the new temple fund toward building a new altar for Sri Sri Radha Madan Mohan. When Parvati inquired from Lord Siva about the highest process of worship in this world, Lord Siva answered that worship of Lord Visnu is the highest. But then he added that even higher than the worship of Lord Visnu is the worship of the 'tadiya' of Lord Visnu. Tadiya means, those things dear to Lord Visnu."O Devi, the most exalted system of worship is the worship of Lord Visnu. Greater than that is the worship of tadiya, or anything belonging to Visnu." (Padma Purana)

 

In Bhagavatam, Krsna says that His devotees are dearer to Him than His own self. Similarly, the things used by pure devotees are also dear to Visnu and are most sacred. Following this principle, when Maharaja Prataparudra, the king of Orissa, upon receiving a garment used by Lord Caitanya, worshipped it as a Deity, accepting it to be non-different from Mahaprabhu.

 

There are a limited number of sacred articles in this world that were actually used by Srila Prabhupada. Here's your chance to obtain some of these articles. The remnants of a saintly person are highly potent to re-awaken one's devotion and a great opportunity for spiritual advancement. Participate in this auction and take the mercy home!

 

The following items are listed in the auction:

1.    Dhoti and Ghumsha of Srila Prabhupada

2.    Painting of Srila Prabhupada

3.    15 original pen and ink drawings done by Ramnath

4.    Original sets (3) of Srimad Bhagavatam

5.    Original painting of Lord Nityananda and Jiva Goswami

 

Please write to us if you have any questions!

Discover Your Self - An Introductory course on the Bhagavad Gita starting Saturday, Mar 23 2013 @ Fremont

Dear Friends

ISKCON Of Silicon Valley (ISV) is pleased to present a FREE 9-SESSION (WEEKLY) INTRODUCTORY COURSE ON THE BHAGAVAD GITA starting in Fremont (Mission area) from Saturday,Mar 23, 2013. The course includes systematic presentation of the teachings of the Gita with PPT slide shows, MultiMedia, etc. Please see the message below for more information and/or contact Sundar @ 408 705 0316.  It is a kids friendly environment, so please feel free to come as a family!


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Dear All,

 

Modern science and technology in recent years has showered the modern human society with comforts unimaginable just a few decades back. It has also tried to reason many of our questions and  satisfied some of our curiosities. But has science been able to solve all our problems, has it been able to answer some of our inherent questions, like?

 

- Who am I?

- What is the purpose of my life? Who created this world and why?

- How do I solve the mystery of death? What happens after death?

- Does God exist?

- Why do bad things happen to good people?

 

Surprisingly, modern science doesn't even attempt to answer many of these questions or rather answers with missing links. Does that mean that there could be no objective/scientific explanation to these questions? The ancient text from India (Vedas) especially Srimad Bhagavad Gita ponders upon these questions that has plagued us from time immemorial and it has satisfied the curiosity of great thinkers and philosophers over many centuries. Here's a reference:

Ralph Waldo Emerson - "I owed a magnificent day to the Bhagavad Gita. It was the first of books; it was as if an empire spoke to us, nothing small or unworthy, but large, serene, consistent, the voice of an old intelligence which in another age and climate had pondered and thus disposed of the same questions which exercise us."

Therefore, our proposal is let's give Srimad Bhagavad Gita a chance.  Spoken 5000 years ago, this knowledge is as applicable in today's modern world as it was to sages, kings, and people millenniums before.

 

We would like to extend a warm welcome & invitation to all of  you to this comprehensive program on the "The Introduction to Bhagavad Gita". Please join us on this journey of Self Discovery. Our first session starts this Saturday. Below are the timing and venue details:

 

Date:   Saturday, August 25

Time:   6:30- 8:30 pm

Venue : Rajesh and Swati's home

12 Montevideo Circle, Fremont CA 94539

 

Delicious vegetarian food (prasadam) (dinner) will be served at the end of the session. We eagerly look forward to your presence. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at 408 705 0316

 

Regards,

Sundar & Vidya
