Within the pages of the Chaitanya Charitamrta, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu glorifies Sila Madhavendra Puri's devotional service. Those who walk the spiritual path can gain deep insight and wisdom from the example and many lessons illustrated by the glories of Madhvendra Puri.

BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS - Chapter A Day (CHAD)

"As Arjuna set aside his bow and arrows, let us set aside any sense of confidence in our own abilities so that we may hear Krsna's words with full heart and attention.This kind of submissive hearing is the primary requirement for advancement in spiritual life. The devotee who hears Krsna's words with a submissive heart immediately feels an ingress of causeless knowledge and detachment." – H. G. Vaisesika Prabhu

CHAD is a worldwide alliance of devotees who chant at least one chapter of Bhagavad-gita As It Is every day. 

Please recite 18th Chapter (verses 1-39) of Bhagavad Gita every day along with one purport from 2 Mar 2019 to 30 Mar 2019.

Please recite 18th Chapter (verses 40-78) of Bhagavad Gita every day along with one purport from 31 Mar 2019 to 29 Apr 2019
