The Heart of Transcendental Book Distribution

The Heart of Transcendental Book Distribution - AIl glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga! All glories to the thunderous congregational chanting of Radha-Krsna's Holy Names! All glories to the swan-like pure devotees of the Lord
 
The great necessity in the forward march of any growing religio-cultural institution is to recognize, encourage, responsibly guide, and positively facilitate the inner spiritual development of the society's progressive pure devotional aspirants. This treatise strives in its own unique way to inspire a revolution of understanding.
 
It attempts to deepen the self-searching thoughtfulness essentially required to bridge the apparent dichotomy between a sadhaka's inward bhajana and outward preaching by illustrating the relative importance of each, as well as their interrelation. Those fortunate souls who absorb this message will find the pathway to the highest regions of kysna-prema clearly open to them, whereas those unfortunates who turn from this message, preferring to attach themselves to shallow, self-aggrandizing materialistic modes of devotion, will find their path plagued with obstruction. We sincerely hope to at least touch the hearts of a fortunate few. That alone would be the hallmark of our success and a source of immense satisfaction.
 
This small volume will be well regarded by purified clear-headed individuals who are thoroughly honest. Narrow-souled superficialists or spiritually maladroit, externally oriented prakrta-bhaktas of meager metaphysical or internal devotional acumen will have to muster the requisite spiritual integrity to deeply enter into the spirit of this dissertation. The subject matter of this book, like the highly elevated topics revealed in the later cantos of Srimad-Bhagavatam, should not be intruded upon by the ineligible, hypocritical, corrupt, or envious. If the boot impacts, promptly close the book.
 
In alluding to various potential and kinetic religio-organizational irregularities in the course of this discourse, we aim not to rudely impute any wickedness to any individual or body of individuals. Rather, the objective is to practically illustrate how a serious devotional candidate must, when required, transcend institutional atmospheric conditions as a down-to-earth expression of the determination to achieve spiritual perfection, keeping the ultimate mission of guru and Krsna in view. In other words, all things considered, there is no excuse for failure in fulfilling the human mission.
 
Barring the overreliance on institutional ethos, sadhakas may certainly in all circumstances advance both the internal and external culture of Krsna consciousness - perhaps not so much because of, but rather in spite of, the institution with all of its inevitable shortcomings and tribulations. In other words, ultimately, we have only ourselves to blame for our lack of Krsna consciousness.
