I now have a new Shiksha guru. His name is H.G Nirantara das Prabhu. He is a Prabhupada disciple who is based in the state of California and normally preaches at the Los Angeles Temple.
I can't remember exactly how I found him. I think it was when I first found mayapur.tv was how I found him and clicked on his channel. I sat there listening to his classes and just got so inspired. He reminds me of my own guru Maharaj in several ways. I had found Nirantara Prabhu I think about a year ago on mayapur.tv.
A few days ago I asked Nirantara Prabhu if he could be my Shiksha guru. He said yes. He said that Srila Prabhupada had once said that we can have many shiksha gurus and only one diksha guru(initiating guru). Nirantara Prabhu had found me on facebook and and I immediately added him and that's when I asked him if he could be my shiksha guru. :) Another good excuse to keep my facebook pages. I don't think I will be getting rid of my facebook pages now because I have my Cleveland friends on there and now I have my Shiksha guru on there as well.
I also love the concerts that Nirantara Prabhu sometimes does on his webcasts. A lot of his songs sounds so much like the Beatles which is what got me attracted to his lectures and music. I had asked him yesterday if he could dedicate a class and song for my guru maharaj's upcoming appearance day and he had also agreed to do it. He is so kind just like my guru Maharaj.
My dad has met Nirantara Prabhu the night I first met him in person back in March earlier this year. He had given my dad blessings and I know my dad has gotten purification from that alone.
Nirantara Prabhu has his own website that you can take a look at www.nirantara.com or you can find him on www.iskcondesiretree.net and click under Prabhujis and click on Prabhujis K-R then scroll down and click on H.G Nirantara das Prabhu. He has many of his songs and lectures on there as well. He normally gives classes on Thursdays and Sundays as far as I know but there are other days he does classes online. Sometimes on tuesdays like tonight he is giving a class and concert which I am excited about. :) I cannot wait to hear it tonight.
