๐ฌ๐ง GURU PURNIMA 2025 โ A Light that Guides the Heart
July 10th, 2025 โ On the sacred occasion of Guru Purnima, devotees from all over the world gathered via Zoom under the loving and quietly powerful guidance of ลrฤซla Bhakti Niskama Shanta Maharaja, to celebrate this deeply meaningful day in the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition.
Following an introductory reflection on the spiritual lineage and the importance of an authentic Guru, the session delved into teachings from ลrฤซla Vedavyฤsa, Nฤrada Muni, and Sanฤtana Goswฤmฤซ. Devotees contemplated the eternal relationship between the soul and Kแนแนฃแนa (sambandha), and the mood of living as a servant of the servant of the servant.
Gurudeva remained in gentle silence, allowing the sevฤ to speak. His calm smile, his absence of authoritarian tone, and his graceful, scientific humility deeply moved those present. The session reminded everyone that true spiritual realization lies in pleasing Kแนแนฃแนa by serving the Guru and the Vaiแนฃแนavas, through self-sacrifice and heartfelt dedication.
โจ The meeting also marked the beginning of Chฤturmฤsya, a four-month period of spiritual retreat and focused devotion.
On this holy day, the inner sun of the Guruโs guidance shone brighter than ever.
