Welcome...
...to  the
Canadian branch of the Sri Chaitanya Saraswath Math. 
Presently the word Yoga has been used to indicate exercises
in more or less physical form. But if we look into the fundamental
basis of Yoga we will find that it has been dealt with in the remote
past by Krishna Himself on the pages of Bhagavadgita in
more profound way. In this, more than 5000 year old, boook we find
theosophical and spiritual topics categorized in different chapters
as sankhya yoga, karma yoga, gyana yoga, (see
more...)
Bhakti Yoga has been described
in 12th Chapter of
Bhagavadgita as path of devotion to the Supreme
Person, and not to oneself or other people, Unmanifested Brahman,
Wind or Earth etc. ( bhaktya mam
abhijanati )
Bhakti Yoga embraces all types of relationships as all of them spung
from the Supreme Center. The
example is given in Upanishadas: "just
like by watering roots of a tree all branches are nourished or just
by putting food in the stomach one nourishes the whole body, similarly
one creates harmony in whole universe by worshipping the Supreme." True
bhakta is a true friend of all as he sees the Divine Hand every
where.
This website is
dedicated to our beloved spiritual master Srila
Bhakti Sundar Govinda Dev Goswami Maharaja, the recepient and master
of ancient line bhakti yoga, who has given us more guidance, hope
and affection than we can ever imagine. We are simply to share the
great gift given unconditionally to us to you and all sincere seekers.
Regardless of age, background, or any material qualification or circumstance,
this gift is beneficial to all. Not everyone is looking for spiritual
life but most definitely everyone is looking for love, beauty, for
harmony and happiness. Unfortunately all transactions in this mortal
world can never bring us satisfaction for what we're truely looking
for. How can we find what can give this satisfaction? Here at our asram,
it is our hope that you will find the answer.
Our meetings are based on happily hearing about God (hari katha), glorifying
God (kirtan) and tasting prasadam (food offered to Lord Krishna). If
you
want to uplift your conscious heart please come as you are .
Thank you,
Editors

Kirtan comes from word kirti - indicating some one worth of glory. So kirtan is an act of giving honor to such a person. The supreme glory is with the supreme person. Thus kirtan is not just singing a nice tune. Rather it is based on devotion, and its quality depends on the intensity of devotion. One needs to chant kirtan under the guidance of one whose devotion is pure, unmotivated and clear. Kirtan should be chanted without any petition as far as possible.
