Bhakti Sastri

[Guest guest]

Dear Devotees

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

 

As previously announced a 3-month, VTE Bhakti Sastri course is being held in

Radhadesh, Belgium. The course begins 26th March and will end 27th June.

This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone who wants to deeply study Srila

Prabhupada's books in the association of devotees. We still have a few

places left so please contact me as soon as possible if you want to be sure

of a place.

 

The VTE (Vaisnava Training and Education) Bhakti Sastri course has taken

almost five years to complete, this course has been designed and written by

experienced devotee-teachers. Going well beyond theory, it aims to equip the

student with practical skills in applying scripture (in our own lives and in

guiding others). It specifically focuses on behaviour and character,

nurturing students in appropriate Vaisnava values.

 

The teachers for this course are: Rasamandala Dasa, Braja Bihari Dasa, Rati

Manjari Devi and Anumanta Dasa

 

This highly participatory and interactive course covers Bhagavad Gita,

Nectar of Devotion, Sri Isopanisad and Nectar of Instruction, with 2 1½ hour

lessons a day and one day a week free, students will also require 1- 1½

hours of self study per lesson (67% of the assessment is coursework/project

work). All participants will receive comprehensive student's handbooks and

workbooks and those who successfully pass the exams will also get official

VTE Bhakti Sastri Cetificates.

 

This course is meant for devotees who have been seriously practicing Krsna

Consciousness for some time and have some basic backround sastric knowledge

and understanding, (equivalent to a serious devotee residing in the temple

for one year). All students must follow the 4 regulative principles and

chant 16 rounds and are expected to attend the daily morning program.

 

Radhadesh will provide an environment conducive for devotees to study and

practice Krsna consciousness. Participants will have places to study, a

complete reference library, good association, gorgeous Deities to worship,

an enlivening morning and evening program, nice accommodations, and

delicious prasadam.

 

Registration:

The fee for this highly participatory and interactive, 3 month VTE bhakti

sastri course is 900 Euros inclusive of tuition, accommodation, prasadam and

all course materials. Places are limited, so register quickly if you don't

want to be disappointed. Devotees wishing to register are requested to pay a

100 Euro registration fee to reserve their place.

I spoke with Dhira Govinda prabhu in Mayapur and I offered to become his

personal secretary, as he happens to need someone to assist him with many

projects which he has in mind, or has been unable to finish, he welcomed the

proposal. He said that you are assisting many devotees who want immigrate to

US. My wife is a Dutch citizen and I am British, we are presently living in

Belgium. I would like to know from you how to proceed?

Please give me an idea of the time it will take us to get the necessary

papers so that we legally work in th US and approximately how much it will

cost us?

I will be in India until March 15, so my communication will be slow until I

am back in Belgium.
