Book Description
About five hundred years ago, Śri Caitanya Mahaprabhu predicted that His name would be chanted in every town and village of the world. Traveling on foot for almost six years, He inundated the Indian subcontinent with the mahamantra and established the superiority of kṛṣṇa-bhakti. Gaurāṅga traveled only in India, and to accomplish the phenomenal task of spreading the “great mantra for deliverance” to every nook and cranny of the planet, He sent His empowered senāpatī-bhakta – commander-in-chief and pure devotee – Śrīla Prabhupāda.

Book Description
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From USA TODAY bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones comes a “masterpiece” (Locus Magazine) of a novel about revenge, cultural identity, and the cost of breaking from tradition. Labeled “one of 2020’s buzziest horror novels” (Entertainment Weekly), this is a remarkable horror story that “will give you nightmares—the good kind of course” (BuzzFeed). From New York Times bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones comes a novel that is equal parts psychological horror and cutting social commentary on identity politics and the American Indian experience. Fans of Jordan Peele and Tommy Orange will love this story as it follows the lives of four American Indian men and their families, all haunted by a disturbing, deadly event that took place in their youth. Years later, they find themselves tracked by an entity bent on revenge, totally helpless as the culture and traditions they left behind catch up to them in a violent, vengeful way.

Book Description
The topic of forgiveness has been the subject of several seminars in ISKCON. Usually, such seminars take the modern psychological approach whereby one thinks: “He has behaved badly towards me in the past but I am so great and magnanimous that I will now forgive him out of the kindness of my heart.’’ This attitude is self-centered and egoistic. This is not the Vaiṣṇava view based on śāstric understanding, but a materialistic one based on false egoism. This book is a composite of the edited transcripts of a seminar on ‘The Quality of Forgiveness’, given by His Holiness Bhakti Vikāsa Swami in Russia in 2019. Many people today do not have the time required to hear lectures, which is considerably longer than the time required to read the same subject matter in a book format. Hence, Bhakti Vikas Trust is publishing this important discussion on the quality of forgiveness, in an e-book format.

Book Description
What happened to this dynamic spiritual movement? It is not that the movement is completely devoid of life, but what happened to the hope, the mission, and the revolutionary spirit of changing the world by bringing Kṛṣṇa consciousness to others? Many people who are joining now may not have any idea of this and may think that the way it is now is the way it should be. How did ISKCON become so wishy-washy? Well, obviously it didn’t happen overnight. There is a history behind that which we can learn for educational purposes. Such an account may be somewhat subjective and some facts may not be fully correct as it is difficult to chart the course of history in ISKCON when there have been different factors at work and multiple events unfolding simultaneously. Discussing these subjects may not be appreciated by all the members of ISKCON, but there are those who appreciate it. This discussion is not directly spiritual, but it is educational. We shouldn’t pretend that everything in the movement is glorious and wonderful. In one sense, it is and in another sense, it isn’t. One should have a realistic understanding of the history of the movement. This book is a composite of the edited transcripts of a series of talks titled ‘Why is ISKCON so Wishywashy?’, given by His Holiness Bhakti Vikāsa Swami in Croatia in 2019. Many people today do not have the time required to hear lectures, which is considerably longer than the time required to read the same subject matter in a book format. Hence, Bhakti Vikas Trust is publishing this important discourse in an e-book format.
