My dear Achyuta Krsna prabhu,
OM SURABHYAI NAMAH!
OM SRI GURAVE NAMAH!
Please accept the kind blessings of Sri Sri Gaura Nitai, Sri Sri Krishna Balarama and Sri Sri Radha Madhava. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Thank you very much for your kind mail sent on January 17, 2013 entitled “About Vedic Farming”. You have written:
As you may know we have a national ministry here in India called Daiva Varnasrama Based Rural Development Ministry also known as ISKCON Daiva Varnasrama Ministry (IDVM) for India where we encourage devotees to seriously take up the varnasrama mission. It is not only about Vedic Farming but varnasrama encompasses a whole lifestyle, the one promoted in our Vedic culture based on principles of Simple Living that in turn more easily favors High Thinking.
There is an urgent need for young educated devotees to take up this yet unfulfilled part of Srila Prabhupada’s mission, that of helping develop and establish self-sufficient communities and thus redirect society to its more natural and practical lifestyle based on cow protection, production of natural organic foods and a more simplified lifestyle based on Krishna consciousness. This can be summarized as our varnasrama culture.
I invite you to correspond with our National Directorate office in Sri Mayapur to find out how you can be connected and involved with this noble endeavor. You may visit some of our websites where you can avail of more information about our activities: www.iskconvarnasrama.com and www.sahyadriksetra.com
Trusting this finds you well and always engaged in promoting Lord Caitanya’s Sankirtan mission by helping to implement Srila Prabhupada’s vision. Krsne matir astu.
Your well wisher,
RP Bhakti Raghava Swami
