Book Description
This book is full of memories of more than seventy devotees who attended the Mayapur - Vrndavana Festivals. Each chapter makes you feel as if you were personally present at the festival, dancing and chanting, or hearing Srila Prabhupada speak. Even if you couldn’t be there, or if nowadays you cannot attend the Mayapur - Vrndavana Festivals, you can relax at home or wherever you are and relish these first hand memories of Prabhupada. The Mayapur-Vrndavana Festivals book will also help you prepare mentally, culturally and spiritually for a pilgrimage to holy places.

Book Description
This is a book about a deeply beloved place—many call it the spiritual capital of India. Located at a dramatic bend in the River Yamuna, a hundred miles from the center of Delhi, Vrindavan is the spot where the god Krishna is believed to have spent his childhood and youth. For Hindus it has always stood for youth writ large—a realm of love and beauty that enables one to retreat from the weight and harshness of the world. Now, though, the world is gobbling up Vrindavan. Delhi’s megalopolitan sprawl inches closer day by day—half the town is a vast real-estate development—and the waters of the Yamuna are too polluted to drink or even bathe in. Temples now style themselves as theme parks, and the world’s tallest religious building is under construction in Krishna’s pastoral paradise. What happens when the Anthropocene Age makes everything virtual? What happens when heaven gets plowed under? Like our age as a whole, Vrindavan throbs with feisty energy, but is it the religious canary in our collective coal mine?

Book Description
Madhurya-Kadambini (Cloud Bank of Nectar), by the renowned Gaudiya Vaisnava acarya Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura, is a short work, and it is a commentary on an even shorter work – just two verses that appear in Srila Rupa Gosvami’s Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu.
