New mailing list (conference) on Bhaktivedanta Swami Charity Trust

[Guest guest]

Dear Maharajas, Prabhus and Matajis,

 

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and his

followers!

 

One day in the month of November in 1977, His Divine Grace A.C.

Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada suddenly began to shed tears lamenting about

the dilapidated condition of many of the temples founded by the followers of

Lord Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. At this time, he expressed his desire that a

trust be established for the purpose of renovating these ancient holy

places.

 

Accordingly, on November 5, 1977, the Bhaktivedanta Swami Charity Trust

(BVSCT) was officially formed to renovate and develop the old temples of the

followers of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu as well as to reunite the Gaudiya

Vaishnava Sampradaya, especially the disciplic descendants of His Divine

Grace Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada.

 

Srila Prabhupada also made some of his Godbrothers Trustees of the BVSCT and

HH Jayapataka Maharaja its Chairman.

 

In an attempt to fulfill Srila Prabhupada's abovementioned desires, BVSCT is

directly involved in the renovation and development of the old temples as

mentioned above. BVSCT has also taken up the initiative to form the

Sarasvata Gaudiya Vaishnava Association (SGVA), a confederation of the

disciplic descendants of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, thereby

attempting to reunite them.

 

"BVSCT Information" is a moderated information-only mailing list

("conference" in PAMHO), where periodically I shall post updates on the

ongoing activities of BVSCT.

Your servant,

Bhaktajana Priya Das
