From Prema-vivarta:

yadi bhajibe gorā sarala kara nija mana
kuṭināṭi chāḍi' bhaja gorāra caraṇa

gorāra āmi, gorāra āmi,
mukhe balile nāhe cale

gorāra ācāra, gorāra vicāra,
la-ile phala phale

If you desire to worship Lord Gaurāṅga, make your mind simple and straightforward. Giving up duplicity, worship the lotus feet of Lord Gaurāṅga. Merely saying "I am Gaura's, I am Gaura's" will not do. Following the example of His action and sentiment will bear fruit.

If you desire to worship Gauranga



I’ve been monitoring this story and was going to post some pictures yesterday but ran out of time. A lot of devotees were touched by Gulab Kali’s playful nature.

With great sadness we'd like to inform our readers that Gulab Kali, the Mayapur elephant, went Back To Krishna at around six pm last night (April 1st).

Ekendra’s got a couple of shots on his site. There’s a gallery of shots here.
