The messages of Sri Bhakti-siddhanta Saraswati Goswami Maharajah Paramahamsa Thakura demolish the illusions of the entire world, finishes the intellectuals’ mad pursuit of liberation, properly adjusts scriptural regulations, and is an abode of loving attachment for Sri Radha’s Lord. May that message play within our hearts eternally.
