I appreciate your mini-magazine KK Bindu. It is highly nectarian. The most

important thing is that it removes certain misconceptions which exist within

the devotee community. In issue 111 the article on sannyasa and family life

is very instructive. Srila Prabhupada says that actual sannyasa means that

one has given everything to Krishna. So, it does not matter whether one is

in household life or in the renounced order of life, if s/he is dedicating

everything to Krishna. That is the opinion of Bhaktivinode Thakur as well.

But currently we find that some temple devotees have a very bad opinion

about grihastha devotees. They even consider them as karmis and directly

instruct their followers not to associate with the grihastha devotees, even

if the later are following the regulative principles very strictly and

dedicated their lives for Krishna.

 

You are doing a great service. Please continue it for ever. Your service is

being recorded in the abode of Lord Krishna. It is eternal.

 

In issue 112 I noticed a small typo in the song of Dvija Hari Dasa. I think

"ratri yaya dine" should be "ratri yaya nide".
