Message Of Godhead

by A.C. Bhaktivedanta

This introductory book offers a brief look at karma-yoga and transcendental knowledge. God has a message for we're not the body; we are spiritual beings. The book "message of godhead" talks about these two simple truths will bring us to self-realization and god realization. Human society has been divided into four social orders by lord krishna, the personality of godhead. This natural division has existed since time immemorial and divides society into brahmanas (intellectual class), kshatriyas (administrative class), vaishyas (mercantile class) and shudras (laborer class). In every part of the globe one can observe that the human population is naturally divided on this basis - a person's psychology and work. When these four social orders cooperatively serve god, then all will be happy.

About the author

His Divine Grace Abhay Charanaravinda Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (अभय चरणारविन्द भक्तिवेदान्त स्वामी प्रभुपाद)was born as Abhay Charan De on 1 September 1896 in Calcutta, India.

He first met his spiritual master, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami, in Calcutta in 1922. Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati, a prominent devotional scholar and the founder of sixty-four branches of Gaudiya Mathas (Vedic institutes), liked this educated young man and convinced him to dedicate his life to teaching Vedic knowledge in the Western world. Srila Prabhupada became his student, and eleven years later (1933) at Allahabad, he became his formally initiated disciple.

At their first meeting, in 1922, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura requested Srila Prabhupada to broadcast Vedic knowledge through the English language. In the years that followed, Srila Prabhupada wrote a commentary on the Bhagavad-gita and in 1944, without assistance, started an English fortnightly magazine.

In the last ten years of his life, in spite of his advanced age, Srila Prabhupada circled the globe twelve times on lecture tours that have took him to six continents. In spite of such a vigorous schedule, Srila Prabhupada continued to write prolifically. His writings constitute a veritable library of Vedic philosophy, religion, literature and culture.
