Answering Your Questions | Q & A Session Part 2

This is episode 13 of the Hari-katha Podcast, where Bhakti Lalita answers the following questions from our viewers: 1) Q: I just missed meeting Srila Govinda Maharaj, he left the world right when I arrived to the Math. He left so many qualified representatives I know, but I wanted his connection… 2) Q: It’s not always easy to share and speak such high things as the concepts of our Gurus to the people I come across, I can only share the little that I know and don’t have so much to say. I have a strong desire to preach but my understanding is simple and basic. Do we really need to have very extensive knowledge to speak to others we meet? 3) Q: Sometimes everything is so easy going in spiritual practice and other times I feel like it’s an uphill battle. How do we pace ourselves in both situations? 4) Q: What is the actual nature of Goloka Vrindavan, the land of Radha-Krishna situated at the highest point in the spiritual sky? 5) Q: How can we conceive that nothing is outside of or separate from the Lord? 6) Q: Srila Guru Maharaj said, ‘learn to give ashes’, just go through the learning process and the motions of giving. What does this mean? 7): Q: Actual spiritual attainment and realization seems like an impossibility. There are times I wonder why even bother trying? 8): Q: What do you say to people who still believe in Darwinian evolution? I come across them in school all the time. 9) Q: What is Bhakti, Krishna Consciousness, Gaudiya-Vaishnava culture, Prema Dharma? So many names for the same thing.
