Rays of the Harmonist - No. 21 - English

This special edition of Rays of The Harmonist monthly on line articles features excerpts from Srila Prabhupada's Upadesamrta, a compilation of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada's instructions, in question-and-answer form: "How will we recognize a messenger from Vaikuntha and the authenticity of his message?" "By what means can we gain the courage to surrender our very self?" The compelling answers to nearly 30 such question form just a portion of this issue. It also contains several short articles by him and his esteemed disciples and grand-disciples and an extraordinary treatise by Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja entitled "Sri Vyasapūja and Sri Gaudiya Vedanta". It also includes a map of the Gaudiya Maths on Bhaktisiddhanta Road, Mayapura.
