PRABHUPADA FARM HAWAII - GOLOKA COW SANCTUARY: The Prabhupada Sankirtan Society is now in Hawaii.
Varnāśrama in action - in the original Vedic tradition.
“The social institution known as varṇāśrama-dharma - the institution dividing society into four divisions or castes - is not meant to divide human society according to birth. Such divisions are in terms of educational qualifications. They are to keep the society in a state of peace and prosperity. The qualities mentioned herein are explained as transcendental qualities meant for making a person progress in spiritual understanding so he can get liberated from the material world.”
- Bhagavad-gita As It Is - Macmillan 1972 Edition : Bg 16: The Divine and Demoniac Natures : Bg 16.1, Bg 16.2, Bg 16.3, Bg 16.1-3 : PURPORT - [Bold/italic emphasis added.]
THE BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS - Praised By All ~
The Srila Prabhupada edition of Bhagavad gita As It Is praised by scholars, philosophers, religionists, and scientists:
“The Gita can be seen as the main literary support for the great religious civilization of India, the oldest surviving culture in the world. The present translation and commentary is another manifestation of the permanent living importance of the Gita.” — Thomas Merton, Theologian

WHAT SERVICES DO YOU LIKE TO DO FOR SRILA PRABHUPADA?
I like to do exactly what Prabhupada wants me to do, and that is to preach Krsna consciousness, or the glories of the Supreme Personality of Godhead which is made possible by the distribution of Prabhupadas sacred literature. I like to encourage people in developing their relationship with Srila Prabhupada and help them gain their attachment to Prabhupada. Only Srila Prabhupada can instill in us the confidence, determination and faith to go forward to reestablish our forgotten loving relationship with God, Lord Krsna..
HOW DID YOU COME TO THE SHELTER OF SRILA PRABHUPADA?
After becoming exasperated investigating so many philosophies, religions and spiritual healers, yogis, swamis and gurus, I concluded that the only guidance on the path of spirituality was His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. By meeting his very sincere and beautiful disciples, I saw in them the undeniable genuineness which was reflected in their adherence in following Srila Prabhupada. I accepted Srila Prabhupada as my spiritual master in July 1970.
WHAT MAKES PRABHUPADAS MISSION REAL TO YOU?
Srila Prabhupada. He is the reality.
HOW DO YOU FEEL YOU ARE BENIFITTING BY ASSOCIATING IN THIS MISSION?
Im benefiting by becoming my real true self, free from the contaminations of material existence. And simultaneously getting the array of light of my understanding and appreciation of God, Lord Sri Krsna.
