TAKING SHELTER OF SRI GURU AND VAISNAVAS.

By  Respected Srimati Uma didi

Brief Introduction:

Around 1944-1945 , Srimati Uma didi’s mother and sister were initiated  Harinam by Our Beloved Param Gurudeva, Nitya lila Pravista Om Visnupada Srila Bhakti Prajnana Keshava Goswami Maharaja ,( Our Srila Prabhupada’s Godbrother and Sannyasa Guru,and  Beloved Guruji of Our Srila Gurudeva,  His Divine Grace Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Goswami Maharaja ).  Within 1950, they received Diksha and probably were one of His first ladies disciples. At that time Srimati Uma didi was not having much faith in Vaisnavism, her vision  was more like of Ramakrishna Mission, that whomever you worship , God , Demidods or Godesses, will bring you to the same place.

I would like to share with you some of my summer, and hope my little effort will inspire and broaden the horizon toward dynamic seva. January 1st, 2007, a bit of heart and a bit of mind pulled me to New Zealand. There I was to be a part of a prasadam catering venture.
