Now online: “Gita changes” for chapter seven

BBT press release The BBT is pleased to announce the release of the annotated scans for chapter seven of Bhagavad-gita As It Is. They are now online at www.BBTedit.com/changes. This is a historic chapter because here is where Srila Prabhupada switched from typing manuscripts himself to using a dictaphone. What sort of difference did that make? Included with the scans are twelve sample pages from the manuscript, including both typed and dictated portions. So you can see for yourself. In the annotated scans, you'll find examples of both big changes and small ones. Check them out and … [Read more...] about Now online: “Gita changes” for chapter seven

9/11: Items from a small chapter of history

September 11, 2011 by Jayadvaita Swami

Do I obsess about 9/11? At least I try not to. In short: The official story of the "terrorist attacks" appears to me a fraud; the fraud has apparently succeeded in accomplishing its objectives; and so goes yet another small chapter in the endless history of the material world. But though I have better things to think about than 9/11, I do sometimes think about it, especially on the anniversary of the event, or when I'm subjected to extra searches by airport security, or when something about 9/11 I didn't know before comes to my attention as particularly striking. Today, two such special … [Read more...] about 9/11: Items from a small chapter of history

Lost sentence appears in newly discovered page of Gita transcription

July 4, 2011 by Jayadvaita Swami

BBT press release A sentence handwritten by Srila Prabhupada for a purport of Bhagavad-gita As It Is but never included in any edition of the book has come to light at the Bhaktivedanta Archives. The sentence, written on a newly discovered transcribed page for Chapter 10, text 36, disparages "the unfortunate commentator who wants to cheat Krsna and the public by saying that there is something greater than Krsna." A letter from Jayadvaita Swami discusses the question, What should the BBT do with the newly discovered sentence? You can see the page and the letter. … [Read more...] about Lost sentence appears in newly discovered page of Gita transcription

June 13, 2011 by Jayadvaita Swami

The changes for the Preface, the Introduction, and the previous chapters are already … [Read more...] about Now online: “Gita changes” for chapter six
