Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.20 - A devotee is never alone, they are always with Krsna, the ultimate shelter.
Second article from Hari Sauri on Prabhupada's 1975 visit to Melbourne...
Here's the last of my unpublished pics. (unless I find some more!) from Melbourne 1975. Srila Prabhupada came in mid-May and installed what were then the largest brass Deities in ISKCON and in fact, the largest brass Deities ever cast in Bengal--Sri Sri Nitai Gaura. It was a brilliant event because along with Their Lordships' appearance, ISKCON Australia also revealed to the world its new headquarters at 197 Danks St. Albert Park. A beautiful 2 acre property that started off as a stately home, became a Christian Brother's college and then a Heritage-listed monument, and finally a Hare Krishna temple.
The first of a couple of nice articles by Hari Sauri regarding Prabhupada's visits to Melbourne...

In 1973 Srila Prabhupada had promised to attend the Melbourne Rathayatra. We had built two new rathas, but the main factor in attracting him to come was the prominence of the small Australian yatra in the book distribution listings. Inspired by Buddhimanta prabhu, the Australians were leading the world in their attempts to spread Krsna consciousness and Srila Prabhupada therefore promised to attend the 1973 Rathayatra. Unfortunately he got sick in India and had to cancel.He flew into Melbourne on June 25 1974 for his fourth trip to Australia with his secretary Satsvarupa Das Goswami. This time he only visited Melbourne whereas for his first three trips he had visited Sydney as well.
The Rathayatra on June 29 was glorious and Srila Prabhupada, after joining up with the rathas in the main city square, walked the whole route, terminating at the Royal Exhibition Gardens.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.18 - Caitanya Mahaprabhu ordered His followers to beg others to chant the names of Radha and Krsna.
Radha Krsna Bol from Gitavali (Srila Bhaktivinode Thakur) and Jaya Radha Madhava.

Class given on 07-03-2010
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.16 - Get the higher taste in the purifying activities of Krishna consciousness.

Gangesvara Prabhu would like you to know that in order to accommodate the Teacher’s Training Course presented by Atul Krshna Prabhu, it is necessary to delay the Bhakti-vaibhava (1) Course that Gangesvara is facilitating.
The introductory class to Bhakti-vaibhava (1) will now be on Saturday the 27th of March, from 3pm to 6pm.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.14 - Pay no attention to endless glitter of material energy. Continue your duties of devotional service and go back home, back to Godhead.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.11-12 - The austerities of vanaprastha life are like the light of a match compared to the fire of devotional service.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.10 - The Srimad Bhagavtam is been called amala purana (pure ancient literature) since it has no influence of any of the modes of material nature.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.6 - Following varnasrama-dharma is useless without worship of the Supreme Lord.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.5-6 - Krishna manifests His purna-uttama rupa exclusively in Vrindavana.
Srimad Bhagavatam 11.18.1-4 - jnana (knowledge) and vairagya (renunciation) are not the anga (limbs) of Bhakti (devotional service) indeed bhakti itself creates jnana and vairagya.
