Lectures by Sripad Bhakti Sharan Vaishnav Maharaj

Sripad Bhakti Sharan Vaishnav Maharaj
Sripad Vaishnav Maharaj’s exciting lectures convey his deep and contagious appreciation for Srila Govinda Maharaj and his teachings. Vaishnav Maharaj’s tone was always very honest and his advice focused on the essential aspects of Bhakti-yoga. Our recordings include Sunday Feast lectures, Saturday Feast lectures at the San Jose Ashram, classes on Sri Chaitanya Charitamrita, Srimad Bhagavatam, and Sri Sri Prapanna Jivanamritam, and short (1-5 minute) clips from those lectures.

Lectures delivered at the Sunday Feast:

110710 Reciprocating with Gurudev.mp3 (46 minutes, 32.1 MB)

110918 Controlling Anger.mp3 (48 minutes, 33 MB)

110828 Finding Beauty in the Company of Devotees.mp3 (33 minutes, 30.3 MB)

Evening Classes on Sri Sri Prapanna Jivanamritam:

Throughout the winter and spring of 2010/2011 Sripad Vaishnav Maharaj gave class on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from the holy scripture Sri Sri Prapanna Jivanamritam by Srila B.R. Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj. Vaishnav Maharaj insisted that everyone in the class would take turns reading the verses. Although various devotees read the particular Sanskrit and Bengali verses, Sripad Vaishnav Maharaj illuminates their meaning and mentions illuminating anecdotes from his early experiences in Krishna Consciousness as well as his long years of personal service to Srila Govinda Maharaj.

Srila Janardan Maharaj told stories about Srila Gurudev’s world tours and answered questions posed by guests. The prasadam was lovely and everyone was happy.
