The Glories of Sri Purushottama Month by Srila Saccidananda Bhaktivinoda Thakura
The most worshipable paramartha-sastra acclaims adhimasa as the most outstanding month for transcendental activities. Since life in this world is temporary, it is not proper to spend any part of one’s life meaninglessly. It is imperative for the jiva to remain continuously engaged in hari-bhajana at every moment. Thus, the adhimasa, which comes every third year, may also become useful for hari-bhajana. This is indeed the deep meaning of paramartha-sastras. Even though karmis perceive this month to be devoid of all auspicious activities, for the deliverance of all the jivas, paramartha sastra, on the other hand, has ascertained that period as the most conducive for hari-bhajana. Paramartha sastra says, “He jiva! During this adhimasa why should you remain lazy in hari-bhajana? Srimad Golokanatha Himself has ascertained that this month is the best of all. It is superior even to the greatly pious months of Karttika, Magha and Vaisakha. In this month, you should perform arcana of Sri Sri Radha-Krsna with special rules, or moods, for bhajana. You will thereby attain all types of perfection.”

We think that Guru-Vaiṣṇava-Bhagavan and their kṛpa very cheap
Śrīla Gurudeva is antaryāmī, we can never make fool of him, rather he can make fool of us by watching our interest for collecting lābha, pūjā, pratiṣṭhā .
Bonded souls — they are bound to have some material conception about pure Guru-Vaiṣṇava, this is their chronic disease
We cannot say that my Gurudeva has no knowledge about English or mathematics, or Sanskrit, this kind of conception is totally wrong. Rather we should think that it is there, but I am unable to see. If we think that Śrīla Gaura Kishore das Baba has no knowledge about English and mathematics, then our darśana is incomplete.
We should not be miser (kṛpaṇa) to seek our absolute interest
“‘My dear Vaiṣṇava, seeing a person like you is the perfection of one’s eyesight, touching your lotus feet is the perfection of the sense of touch, and glorifying your good qualities is the tongue’s real activity, for in the material world it is very difficult to find a pure devotee of the Lord.’ ”
Those mātājis they cannot act as ācārya to give dikṣā or sannyāsa but can give śikṣā if at all they are tattva –vettvi-viduṣi realized souls (Part 3)
