अभंग आणि गीता
A verse from Sant Tukaram's Varkari tradition meets a verse from the Bhagavad Gita — the path walked each year to Pandharpur, and the path Srila Prabhupada carried around the world, meeting at one threshold.
Sant Tukaram · Abhanga
जे का रंजले गांजले । त्यासी म्हणे जो आपुले ॥ तोचि साधु ओळखावा । देव तेथेचि जाणावा ॥
Je ka ranjale ganjale, tyasi mhane jo aapule — tochi sadhu olakhava, dev tethechi janava.
Whoever calls the suffering and the afflicted their own — know that person to be a true saint; know that God dwells right there.
Bhagavad Gita
समोऽहं सर्वभूतेषु न मे द्वेष्योऽस्ति न प्रियः । ये भजन्ति तु मां भक्त्या मयि ते तेषु चाप्यहम् ॥
I am equal to all beings; none is hateful to Me, nor dear. But those who worship Me with devotion dwell in Me, and I in them.
Bhagavad Gita 9.29अन्नदान सेवा प्रायोजित करा
Your seva feeds visiting devotees, students, and anyone who walks through our doors hungry. Every contribution, large or small, becomes an offering.
