    Glories of Rudradvipa

    In this Rudradvipa, the eleven Rudras reside. Headed by Nila-lohita Siva, the Rudras chant Gauranga's glories and constantly dance in bliss. As the demigods watch their dancing, they become happy and shower flowers from the sky.

    On The Adhivāsa Of Sri Gaura Purnima

    It is important that you should perform ‘adhivāsa’, preliminary function, one day earlier. Adhivāsa, is preparing yourself, all arrangements should be done for puja, ritualistic performance before the appearance of Supreme Lord. The main reason for observing adhivāsa is to sanctify the heart. Supreme Lord is appearing continuously in unlimited brahmāṇḍa. That is why it is called as nitya-līlā. He appears in the heart of devotees who have viśuddha-antaḥkaraṇa—sanctified heart.
