Upcoming seminar by His Grace Ramabhadra Priya Dasa
Vaisnava-ninda is an article given by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura, published in three parts in the Sajjana Tosani magazine. There he very clearly and lucidly explains who is a Vaisnava in the context of vaisnava-aparadha and who isn’t. What constitutes vaisnava-aparadha and what doesn’t. We will study this article along with insights from Srila Jova Gosvami, Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura and Srila Prabhupada’s commentaries. Let us get a clear and indepth understanding of what is criticism of vaisnavas by which we can avoid the greatest hurdle in the path of bhakti.
