行程更新

6月6日，海德巴德，巴拉特🇮🇳：今天早上，我读了Canto 11 ，最后两节经文，其中Krishna勋爵结束了他对Uddhava关于Varnasrama话题的话语。“经授权的传统”这个词引起了我的注意。我们不应该盲目跟随任何传统，但特别是真诚的或由sastra授权的传统。

6月1日马来西亚槟城：在ISKCON Sri Sri Radha Krishna Kanhaiya寺上课，随后在Kulim地区的Kelang Lama广场开设Gopal Krishna讲道中心。关于母牛重要性的晚间节目，举例说明母牛的精神和物质利益。

MAY 25柬埔寨王国暹粒：关于保障奶牛福祉和保护的讨论。在任何国家/地区，此讨论应优先于所有其他主题。正如圣帕布帕德（ Srila Prabhupada ）在他的《博伽梵之光》（ Light of the Bhagavat ）一书中所写： “人类社会杀死奶牛是最严重的自杀政策之一，那些渴望培养人类精神的人必须将首先关注奶牛保护问题。”

菲律宾VRAJ生态村：这个乡村社区距离首都马尼拉一个半小时车程，提供许多重要设施，如房客小屋、瑜伽休闲瑜伽馆、寺庙、Goshala、托儿所、学校、花园、餐厅、接待处等。

5月15日Gita Nagari Baru ，苏门答腊，印度尼西亚： Gita Nagari Baru的奉献者社区仍然有一些最初的“创始成员” ，他们在年轻时作为新研究生勇敢地面对在150英亩贫瘠土地上开始一个全新的项目所涉及的许多挑战。经过26年的稳步增长， GNB成员已经成为跨越三代的祖父和祖母。

S之一rila Prabhupada珍视的愿望是创造这样的吠陀村社区，信徒们一起生活，通过实现以下三个格言来努力提高奎师那知觉：
1 ）神性之父（ Krishna ） ，
2 ）自然之母，
3 ）所有生物的童年

“According to the three gunas and the work associated with them, the four divisions of human society are created by Me.”- Lord Krishna, in Bhagavad-gita 4.13

Vaishnava devotees follow the Varnashrama Dharma as elaborated in Vedic scriptures. Devotees residing in New Mayapur abide by them. In the Vedic culture, society is organized as per varna (social divisions), depending on their tendencies to work and ashrama (stages in life), related to family and relationships, which is a natural system and not a man-made system. 

There are four varnas namely Brahmana (priestly class), Kshatriyas (warriors), Vaishyas (merchants) and Shudras (laborers) and four ashramas such as Brahmachari (student life), Grihasta (householder), Vanaprastha (retiree) and Sanyasi (renounced). 

Practically all countries or nations in the world have original residents called indigenous people or for Bharat called Adivasis or for Canada, called First Nation people.

It is most important for us to connect with these people who still have much knowledge in relation to natural resources and practice self-sufficiency. Many of these original tribes and adivasis have Ksatriya natures and still maintain various practices in connection with Mother Nature whom they respect. Much of the land in different countries still belongs to them.

Bhakti Raghava Swami祝福吠陀生态村hupada指示信徒建造Vrindavan村庄，让人们体验以牛为中心的农业社区的美妙氛围。

Around the world ISKCON maintains ethical dairy farms in the Vedic style that are completely different from modern day factory farms, built to produce meat and milk. ISKCON dairy farms are not run for profit, nor for meat. Cows and bulls are protected and taken care of until their natural death and never sent to slaughterhouses when they are old. 

These Vedic model dairy farms, or “goshalas” as they are called in Vedic India, are built to promote humane treatment of cows and bulls, to give them peaceful lives and render service unto them. In exchange, they supply nutritious milk and help the devotees in fertilising the land. Cow manure is used as fertilisers for agriculture and bulls help to plough the fields. 

One of the seven purposes of ISKCON is to teach people to return to a more natural way of life. To fulfil this aim, ISKCON helps people realise their innate connection with Krishna, the Supreme Lord, Who owns this planet we live in and teaches them to respect the environment and all living beings, all of which is a part of the Lord. The Vedas teach that the world is one family and we are all connected. 

The Vedic teaching Vasudeva kutumbakam, means that the whole world is the family of Vasudeva or Krishna, forms the basis of ISKCON’s sustainability, underscoring an undeniable relationship with all living and non-living beings. Thus ISKCON promotes care, protection and love for Mother Earth, knowing all her wonders and resources to be the blessings of the Divine.
