His Krishna consciousness was awakened by the inspiration of His Grace Devamrita prabhu, his siksha guru and His Holiness Radhanath swami who initiated him in 1993. The following year he joined ISKCON as a fulltime celibate at ISKCON, Chowpatty temple for preaching the sublime message of Bhagavad-gita, and was subsequently deputed to preach at Pune. He began the Youth Forum in Pune in 1996, which later took shape as in Pune and many other parts of India. His main focus is preaching to youth and children, and publishing books and notes materials for the preachers of Krishna consciousness. He was conferred by ISKCON the ‘Global Excellency’ award in 2004 for youth preaching and ‘Jiva Goswami’ award in 2005 for innovative youth preaching. Besides preaching at Pune, he travels to oversee the VOICEs at IITKGP, ITBHU-Varanasi, NIT Warrangal, NIT Suratkal, NIT Jamshedpur, etc. Currently he is the President of ISKCON, Pune and the Director of VOICE, Pune. This book is a result of his ripe experience in preaching, counseling and guiding people in Krishna consciousness over a decade. Cover Page: It is concluded in Bhagavad-gita itself that, “Wherever there is Shri Krishna, the master of all mystics, and wherever there is Arjuna, the supreme archer, there will also certainly be opulence, victory, extraordinary power, and morality.” Also it is said, ‘jayas tu Pandu putranam yesham pakshe Janardhana’ - ‘All victory will go to the Pandavas on whose side the Supreme Lord Krishna is personally present’. We wish all our readers opulence, victory, extraordinary power and morality in their lives by reading and applying this book. The back cover of the book shows a sample of readers and users of the book. Srila Prabhupada, Founder Acharya of ISKCON is the exponent who presented Krishna conscious knowledge for the suffering people of Kaliyuga. Thus if the reader finds Krishna consciousness awakened in his or her heart by reading this book, all glory should be given to Srila Prabhupada. Published by Radheshyam das, Director, VOICE, Pune.

C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, for their blessings, inspiration and empowerment, without which I would have had no substance in my life. Their mercy has opened my eyes of knowledge and brought me out of the dark region of multiple philosophies, contradictions, arguments and opinions, and placed me on the path of unmotivated loving devotional service to the lotus feet of Shri, Shri Radha Kunjabihariji. I have compiled this book only to show the lucidity, clarity, and beauty of their teachings coming directly from Lord Shri Krishna in the authorized disciplic succession of Brahma–Madhva–Gaudiya sampradaya. My respects are also to my siksha gurus – His Grace Devamrita prabhu, His Grace Radha Gopinath prabhu, His Grace Shyamananda prabhu, His Grace Govinda prabhu, His Grace Rasaraja prabhu, His Grace Mukunda Madhava prabhu, and His Grace Kapila prabhu, from whose lectures I have obtained much of the valuable information that I have presented in this book. My special respects are to His Holiness Gopalakrishna Goswami, His Holiness Lokanath Swami, His Holiness Bhaktiswarupa Damodar Swami, His Holiness Jayadvaita Swami, His Holiness Romapada Swami, His Holiness Bhaktivikas Swami, His Holiness Bhakticaru Swami, His Holiness Jayapataka Swami, His Holiness Mahanidhi Swami, His Hoiness Radha Govinda Swami, His Holiness Navayogendra Swami, His Holiness Sukadeva Goswami, His Holiness Vedavyaspriya Swami, His Holiness Bhakti Purushottam Swami, Jananivas prabhu, and Krishnasmarana prabhu, whose constant encouragement in my preaching activities inspired me to come up with this publication. Any credit given for this compilation should be given to all these personalities, since I have but just repeated, like a child, what I have learnt and assimilated from them. This book is aims-driven and focused on teaching the concepts through groupwork, quizzes, dramas, comprehension writing, etc. The credit for this goes to my teachers His Grace Rasamandala prabhu and His Grace Atul Krishna prabhu, who taught me at Teachers Training Courses (TTC1, TTC2 and Bhakti Sastri TTC), and whose teaching completely changed my outlook to learning. I thank His Grace Janmashtami prabhu who organizes these courses at Shri Mayapur dham. The book has come out successfully by the sincere efforts of many devotees. Hard working Bhakta Satish has conceived and designed the fascinating cover page. Bhakta Hitesh, Her grace Radhika mataji and Her grace Radhapadadhuli mataji have contributed photos to the cover page. Special thanks are due to Jagannathkirtan prabhu, Bhakta Arulnath, and Sankirtan Anand prabhu for their unflinching dedication in bringing out this book by doing all the taxing computer work. Chaitanya Charan prabhu, Bamsigopal prabhu, Bhakta Haresh, and Mukundananda prabhu deserve special appreciation for their Peace Formula 5 valuable proofreading and editing. I express my gratitude to Sundari mataji, Shrivatsachandra prabhu and Vaishali mataji who gave ideas for improving the book. My special thanks to Shriman Ramnath Lakshman for his kind contribution in bringing out this book. I also express my heartfelt gratitude to the many other devotees to whom I could not pay personal attention and who tolerated me in my busy schedules of preparing the book. My gratitude to Dr. Jitendra Arya and his ‘Institute of Nature Cure and Yogic Sciences’, where he offered me a serene atmosphere in the mode of goodness for completing this work. Radheshyam Das, VOICE, Pune. 6 Peace Formula Introduction In modern days, people have very little time for joining spiritual courses. When I had released ‘Essence of Bhagavad gita’ as a jumbosize book, many preachers had difficulty enrolling candidates for a year-long course. Keeping this in mind, I have now made it into five small courses. Hope this idea will help preachers set up short-term courses that will attract hundreds of candidates. Each course has a ‘material name’ and a ‘spirtiual name’. Thus the participants will be awarded two certificates upon completion of each course, that they can use in material and spiritual circles. The Vedic texts are the panacea for all problems, for all times. They give a crystal clear understanding of all the fundamental and essential truths of life including who we are, what the true goal of life is, and how we can attain permanent happiness. The books published earlier were meant for engineering college students.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • How I Came to Krishna Consciousness by Lokanath Swami
    How I Came to Krishna Consciousness by Lokanath Swami The unseen merciful hand of Lord Krsna helps a determined young student become one of Srila Prabhupada’s first Indian disciples. I was born in Aravade, a small village in the Indian state of Maharashtra that differs little from more than seven hundred thousand others in India. After I graduated from high school, my family sent me to Bombay to study chemistry in college. But my college career was not to be. In the year 1971, in late March, something happened to prevent me from following the program my family had so carefully laid out for me. For the first time, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada was touring India with his foreign disciples. They had arrived in Bombay just before I had, and now they were going to have a pandal (a spiritual festival) at Cross Maidan. The devotees publicized the pandal very widely, in newspapers and on billboards. In the advertisements, Srila Prabhupada’s disciples were described as American, Canadian, European, African, and Japanese sadhus (saintly devotees). This was unprecedented. Previously, whenever the word sadhu had been applied to someone, it was understood that the person was Indian. There could be no other consideration. But these advertisements were talking about sadhus from all over the world. This was indeed a novelty for every Bombayite, and it especially fascinated me. Intrigued, I went to the Hare Krishna Festival, which was quite well organized. The Hare Krsna sadhus were the biggest attraction for me. I appreciated their singing, dancing, walking, and talking.
