ISKM Amalapuram has started a new centre in Raulpalm City, Andhrapradesh for their preaching and Prasadam distribution. They purchased a flat with one room, hall and kitchen.
Meanwhile, construction work of ISKM Amalapuram Goshala is going on at full swing too.
Creating a living Maṭha means to attract faithful persons to surrender at the lotus feet of the spiritual master. The highest welfare activity is to attract living entities to serve the spiritual master’s lotus feet by describing to them the spiritual master’s glories and service. For this we spend gallons of blood. Such preaching will please both guru and Krishna. Therefore, to dedicate body, mind, and speech to such philanthropic activities is the perfection of life. A Maṭha surcharged with talk of Krishna’s glories and service is non-different from Vaikuntha. Thus living in a Maṭha is just like living in a dhāma. Harikathā must be prominent in the Maṭha. There is no use in building a Maṭha simply to facilitate eating and sleeping. Maṭhas should be built only to spread hari-kathā. This will benefit us and others.
From Amrta Vani, collected teachings of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur.
