Bhagavad-Gita CHAD Plan 2022 to worship Lord Krishna through your intelligence everyday


Dear Devotees,

Please accept our most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupad!

Everyone in the material world is in a precarious and hopeless situation. However, in Maya's warm embrace, we think that we are Okay. But actually, we are not. The forceful wheel of time will soon loosen our grips on all that we possess now. Our cherished hopes for comfort, permanency, and happiness in the material world will slip away. In this precarious condition, Bhagavad-gita is our wake-up call. We must recite it and hear it every day and this will provide us real relief from all the sufferings!

Below is the CHAD calendar, approved by H.G Vaisesika Prabhu for the rest of the year. Let us follow this plan and take true shelter of Lord Krishna's instructions through our intelligence!

CHAPTER-A-DAY (CHAD) - BHAGAVAD GITA 

"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
