Os editores 7 O Autor Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura Notas biográficas extraídas da revista Back to Godhead de Shri Shrimad Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Índia, 1952 Filho do grande santo, escritor e preceptor vaishnava Shrila Bhaktivinoda Thakura, Shri Shrimad Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura Prabhupada nasceu em Jagannatha Puri, Índia, em 6 de fevereiro de 1874 e partiu deste mundo mortal no dia primeiro de janeiro de 1937. Desde sua tenra infância, demonstrou sintomas de uma alma liberada. Ainda bebê, foi trazido aos pés da magnífica Deidade de Jagannatha, cuja procissão milenar, conduzida em carruagem enorme, estacou em frente à sua casa. Belas flores caíram miraculosamente das mãos de Jagannatha sobre o me- nino, e a carruagem só voltou a se mover depois disso. Ainda jovem, tornou-se o mais poderoso acharya (mestre espiritual modelar) da nona geração da sampradya gaudiya vaishnava (escola filosófica dos devotos de Krishna – leia en- trevista a respeito de nossa sampradaya no Apêndice deste livro), tendo restabelecido a forma pura de teísmo proposta pelo Senhor Chaitanya, o Avatara do Amor Divino. Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Maharaja, inspirado pelo movimento missionário iniciado por seu pai, fez con- tribuições de vulto para a preservação da tradição gaudiya vaishnava: excavou o local sagrado onde o Senhor Chai- tanya nascera no século XV; publicou e distribuiu os textos sagrados de grandes santos vaishnavas; escreveu seus pró- Introdução 9 prios comentários a estas obras; fundou a Gaudiya Matha, missão vaishnava que se espalhou por toda a Índia para pregar o culto de bhakti conforme os ensinamentos divinos de Shri Chaitanya; iniciou milhares de buscadores sinceros, A expressão sânscrita Shri Guruvani-pradipa significa conscientizando-os da importância de divulgar a cultura iluminação (pradipa) pelos ensinamentos divinos (vani) espiritual védica como um legado de toda a humanidade; de shri guru, o mestre espiritual fidedigno.

Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada ao London Times, espe- lham o espírito verdadeiro e categórico das palavras de seu próprio mestre espiritual, Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura, o autor deste livro. Ao mesmo tempo, revelam um modelo perfeito de relacionamento guru-discípulo, a chave para o sucesso no caminho espiritual. Shrila Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977) Trechos de entrevista concedida ao London Times: Repórter m Mais do que nunca, as pessoas estão bus- cando algum tipo de vida espiritual. O senhor poderia explicar por quê? Shrila Prabhupada m O desejo de vida espiritual é um anseio absolutamente natural. Por sermos almas espiri- tuais, não podemos estar satisfeitos na atmosfera material. Um peixe fora d’água não pode ser feliz. Analogamente, se não temos consciência espiritual, não podemos ser felizes. Hoje em dia, muitos andam atrás de avanço e desenvol- 10 vimento econômico, mas não são felizes, porque não são Orientação perfeita para o bem-estar verdadeiro 11 essas as verdadeiras metas da vida. Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Repórter m O que me preocupa é que de repente foram Thakura Prabhupada surgindo muitos gurus do nada. E nem todos parecem ser ge- nuínos.

  • Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja
    SRILA BHAKTISIDDHANTA SARASVATI GOSWAMI MAHARAJA INTRODUCTION FOR THE BOOK ON BHAKTISIDDHANTA Sarasvati THAKURA During the late '70's and '80's, preaching duties in Bengal now and then broughtme in contact with direct disciples of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, and also with disciples of his disciples. From them I heard stories and teachings of Sarasvati Thakura. Hearing little bits here and there, my heart filled with wonder, and also pride on being connected with such a powerful transcendental personality. My eagerness to hear more increased. From my very beginning days in Krsna consciousness I--and surely all others in ISKCON also--was attracted by the personality of Saraswati Thakura. I would often look up at the big painting of him on the wall of our Bury Place (London) temple. It was as if his serious gaze came down directly from Goloka Vrindavana. He was known as "singha-guru"--a spiritual master as fearsome to non-devotees as a lion. Who would not be impressed on hearing of his austerity, learning, strictness, and above all his unflinching devotion to the lotus feet of Sri-Sri Gaura-Nitai and Sri-Sri Radha-Krsna, and his uncompromising, determined preaching of Their glories? Our own glorious spiritual master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Srila Prabhupada, was another transcendental "superman." Srila Prabhupada was utterly surrendered at the lotus feet of his guru, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, and always considered himself a humble servant of his spiritual master. Those of unbiased mind understand both to be empowered acaryas, saktyavesa-avataras. By his unbreakable bond of devotion to Srila Saraswati Thakura, Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada has, by initiating us, linked us also eternally to his spiritual master.

    Dedication Dedicated to my spiritual master, His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Acharya of the Brahma-Gaudiya Vaishnava Sampradaya, Founder- Acharya of the Hare Krishna Movement. “He lives forever by his divine instructions, and the follower lives with him.” mukam karoti vachalam pangum langhayate girim yat-kripa tam aham vande sri gurum dina tarinam “By the mercy of the Guru even a dumb man can become a great speaker, and even a lame man can cross mountains.” “All my disciples will take the legacy. If you want, you can also take it. Sacrifice everything. I, one, may soon pass away. But they are hundreds, and this movement will increase. It is not that I give an order, ‘Here is the next leader.’ Anyone who follows the previous leadership is the leader…. All of my disciples are leaders, as much as they follow purely. If you want to follow, you can also lead. But you don’t want to follow. Leader means one who is a first class disciple. Evam parampara praptam. One who is following is perfect.” (Srila Prabhupada, Back to Godhead magazine, Vol. 13, No. 1-2) Phalgun Krishna Panchami By His Divine Grace A.C.

  • The Ever Growing Banyan Tree
    Chapter 2 Spirituality in India: The Ever Growing Banyan Tree Comparing Western and Indian knowledge, Rolland (1960, p. 91) described Western knowledge as the “science of facts” and spirituality as “the science of the soul, a peculiarly Indian science.” A major difference between philosophy and spirituality, or for that matter religion and spirituality, is that spirituality, as prac- ticed in India, has an action bias over and above cognitive (thinking or thoughts) or value (considering something important) concerns. Spirituality has been valued in the Indian culture from time immemorial, and it is no surprise that many innova- tions in the field of spirituality originated in India. Since people strive to excel in areas that are compatible with their cultural values, India has seen the emergence of many geniuses in the field of spirituality even in the modern times. I combine two qualitative methods, historical analysis and case analysis, to document how spirituality is valued in India, and much like a banyan tree, how it continues to grow even today. An examination of the life of the list of spiritual gurus presented in the chapter shows that they were all practitioners, and they practiced what they preached. Also, the case analysis shows that Ramakrishna was a practitioner, and both the Maharishi and Rajneesh recommended daily practice of meditation. A historical evolution of spirituality in India is traced by generating a list of spiritual gurus over the last 2,500 years by using published sources both in the West (Kroeber, 1944) and in India.
