Bhakti Visrambha Madhava Maharaja


This morning HH Bhakti Visrambha Madhava Maharaja gave a wonderful class. He was sharing such deep topics that it is hard to get into. The essence was how the cultivation of spiritual life is so very important. Though we may think ourselves eternal - at some point we all gotta go and spiritual life is the preperation for that journey. No one goes on holiday without preparing for it. So we should also be prepared for this most important trip. He explained how he has witnessed many of his godbrothers and sisters departing this world with big smiles on their faces and sincere expression of Krishna presence.

The thing is that this type of shelter will not be easy without practice and this is what spiritual life is all about. Preparing for the big test. Of course the mercy of the Lord is there, but it is explained that the Lord helps those who help themselves.

After the class all of the devotees gathered around Maharaja to get more personal association. I was very fortunate that he recognised me from London and pulled me in close to him and gave me a big hug. He will be in London in a few weeks - I will miss that association.
