About this ebook
Dear Devotees,
Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga!
NBS#61 covers the life and activities of Maharaja Agnidhra and Maharaja Nabhi.
Features:
1) Activities Of Maharaja AgnidhraSukadeva Goswami
O Lord, You perform many wonderful activities. Our only aim in performing this great sacrifice was to acquire a son; therefore our intelligence is not very sharp. We are not experienced in ascertaining life’s true goal. By inviting You to this negligible sacrifice for some material motive, we have certainly committed a great offense at Your lotus feet. Therefore, O Lord of lords, pleaseexcuse our offense by Your causeless mercy and equanimity of mind.
2) Pure Devotee Never Wants To See The Lord UnnecessarilyHis Divine Grace A.C.Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
A pure devotee never wants to see the Lord unnecessarily. The Lord is engaged in various activities, and the pure devotee does notwant to see Him whimsically, for his own sense gratification. The pure devotee simply depends on the Lord's mercy, and when the Lord is pleased with him, he can see Him face to face.
3) The Duties Of A SādhakaSrila Bhaktivinoda Thakura
One should not read or explain various types of books, except those which lead to the advancement of devotional service. One should only discuss those scriptures where devotional service is instructed and explained, such as the Vedas, smṛtis, Purāṇas, Pañcarātra, and the writings of the mahājanas. Any books other than these can provide only useless arguments.
4)How Can One Achieve Devotional Service?Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura
Liberated souls are fully absorbed in the service of their worshipable Lord in Vaikuntha. If one wishes to become liberated from his conditioned state, he must not try to engage God in supplying him sense objects for his pleasure, nor should he reject sense objects simply to be renounced. Rather, he should accept those objects that are favorable for His service and reject only those that are unfavorable.
5) Pure Bhakti Is The Only Means To Perfection
Srila Vishvanatha Chakravarti Thakura
Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga!

Srila Vishvanatha Chakravarti Thakura
Bhakti is the only means to attain complete perfection. To abandon this path and accept voluntary hardships in pursuit of empirical knowledge is as futile as beating the empty husks of wheat.
