11 Mar 2026|English|Safari Lectures|Śrī Māyāpur, India

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-gurun dina tāriṇam
paramānanda-mādhavam śrī caitanya īśvaram
Harihi oṁ tat sat

Jayapatākā Swami: Tomorrow, the Safari devotees are going to Habibpur, Śāntipura and Phuliyā. Śāntipura is the house of Advaita Gosāñī and there we have established the lotus footprints of Advaita Gosāñī and Lord Nityānanda and Lord Caitanya. So, they have built a very nice temple for Their lotus feet. You will go there and bathe the lotus feet and circumambulate Them. Then you can see the Habibpur temple. They have large Deities of  Jagannātha and Rādhā Kṛṣṇa and Nitāi Gaura. Phuliyā, I think Phuliyā comes between Śāntipura and Habibpur. There we did some development work under the Bhaktivedanta Swami Charity Trust. So that is the place Haridāsa Ṭhākura was staying. You can see the Habibpur temple. Then you will go to Kolkata and see the Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura Āśrama and see the birthplace of Śrīla Prabhupāda. See the Rādhā Govinda, Gaura Naṭarāja, Jagannātha, Baladeva, Subhadrā Mandir. Also the Victoria Memorial, Śrīla Prabhupāda walked there, sometime he walked by the Ganges side. You can see how it looks like inside the Victoria Memorial. So that is a place to walk around. I hope to join you in Pānihāṭi, I don’t know what the program is.

Kṛṣṇe matir astu!
