Just wondering: Have you been able to start a class based on the Prabhupada

varnasrama book? That might be a good thing to start while your Bhaktishastri

teacher can't be there. Also, by hearing Srila Prabhupada's conversations

about the importance of cow protection and living off the land, your students

will more easily relish the concept of simple living, high thinking.

 

I was thinking, if you do start sessions based on the Prabhupada Varnasrama

book, you might start with Chapter 4: Get All Your Necessities from the Land --

instead of starting earlier.

 

Srila Prabhupada really packs that chapter (London, 25 Nov 1973) full of

analysis which is central to varnasrama -- including the principle that it is

the duty of human society to keep the cows happy, and that the land can supply

all our necessities of life.

 

Sound like you are rolling along, keep up the good work.

 

your servant,
