Bhaktivinoda Thakura happens to be one of the acaryas. And he has left behind him many books: Caitanya-siksamrta, Jaiva Dharma. These are very important books. They’re in Bengali, in Sanskrit. And many songs. He has prepared many books of song. The song, Ei nam gaya gauracand madhura svare, that is Bhaktivinoda Thakura’s song. So we are trying to present Bhaktivinoda Thakura’s books also in English translation. Gradually you will get it. So our adoration, our worship to Bhaktivinoda Thakura today, because he may bless us to make peacefully progress in Krsna consciousness. Acarya-upasana: simply by the blessings of acaryas we can make very rapid progress.
