- A small child should be trained to serve the spiritual master while living at the guru-kula
- A student is sent to gurukula for practicing brahmacarya. This is tapasya, not comfortable life. Lying down on the floor, going door-to-door for begging alms for guru. But they are not tired

- As you have requested for the time being Vishambarji may stay for helping with the Gurukula construction. I know he is very much expert

- I am always eager to hear that Gurukula is going well so be very vigilant that this program with the older boys in New Vrindaban as well as all levels of teaching at Dallas are just to the standard as I introduced it
- I am always thinking of and appreciating the important work you are all doing there in our Krsna Conscious Gurukula. Please keep steadfast in the program as I have instructed
- I am concerned that the Gurukula experiment should come out nicely. These children are the future hope of our Society, so it is a very important matter how we are training them in Krishna consciousness from the very childhood
- I am referring your letter to Satsvarupa Goswami since he is the GBC Secretary for your zone. I have made him in charge of Gurukula
- I am very happy to see that you are learning our philosophy so nicely. You will grow up to be a great devotee of Krishna. You are very fortunate to have the opportunity of attending Gurukula, so don't waste this opportunity
- I can see from your letter that you are very sincere about Krsna Consciousness and Gurukula. Yes, you should always feel yourself most fortunate and glad that you are in the Krsna Consciousness movement where you can learn sanskrit and English

- I do not wish that the Gurukula should be closed. Please work combinedly and endeavour with great determination to keep it going on nicely
- I have just returned from Dallas Gurukula school, and the young students there require to learn Sanskrit language. So I think you may purchase minimum fifty copies of the primary Sanskrit book for learning Sanskrit language

- If you require more men and women to teach there at Gurukula, you can send from your jurisdiction as GBC man Central USA zone. You will not be too much involved with local temple management

- In my opinion all Gurukula students should be educated free of charge, but outside students may be charged
- In our movement, the guru-kula plays an extremely important part in our activities because right from childhood the boys at the guru-kula are instructed about Krsna consciousness. Thus they become steady within the cores of their hearts
- In the Vedic way of life the beginning of life is tapasya, brahmacari. Brahmacari. A student is sent to gurukula for practicing brahmacarya. This is tapasya, not comfortable life
- Instead of spending money there, if the government is specifically passing the act against us, then we can spend that money in the Gurukula in Vrindaban
- ISKCON or FISKCON, bring students. (laughter) So that I want. I want the number. It doesn't matter ISKCON or FISKCON

O
- One thing is, I am very much sad to learn that you have left the company of the devotees over this incident at Gurukula school
- Our children in Dallas school should be trained because I want that a new generation of devotees shall carry on this great mission successfully
- Our gurukula means how to teach them to become self-controlled. That is first business. This literary education secondary, grammar secondary. The first necessity is how to create them santa, danta, self-controlled
- Our gurukula should be ideal. Not all these boys . . . you should take care of these things from the very beginning - if we want actually spiritual life. If we want to progress like animals, that is different thing, as the whole world is doing
R
- Regarding Gurukula I am very happy to hear that the financial crisis has passed. That is very good. This is real management
- Regarding some misbehavior, that we have to check by training peacefully
- Regarding the ISKCON Gurukula presently situated in Dallas - The Gurukula must be based on the principle of renunciation; vairagya vidya nija bhakti yogam
- Regarding your questions about children at Gurukula, above ten years old they can be initiated first time, and after one year of perfectly chanting 16 rounds and observing the other regulative principles, they may receive second initiation
- Regarding your use of manpower in the Texas Gurukula, that is very good what you are doing now. There should not be more than twelve students for one teacher. This is tutorial system
S

- So far you are concerned, I am especially stressing the importance of our Dallas Gurukula for training up the next generation of Krishna Consciousness preachers. This is the most important task ahead

- Somehow or other our children in Gurukula may not be neglected due to our mismanagement
T
- That is a good proposal, that parents should not accompany their children. Actually that is the gurukula system. The children should take complete protection of the Spiritual Master
- That is real affection, to make sure my child gets back to Godhead, that is my real responsibility as a parent. And I have seen that Gurukula offers this opportunity more than any other place anywhere

- The gurukula is meant for this purpose. Teach them, and let them go around the world to teach. Taroho e bhava-sindhu. Durlabha manava-janama sat-sange, taroho e bhava-sindhu re (Bhajahu Re Mana). This is our mission
- The Gurukula standard should be free education, boarding, and lodging. People shall voluntarily contribute as far as possible. That should be introduced

- The old system of gurukula should be revived as the perfect example of a system designed to produce great men, sober and responsible leaders, who know what is the real welfare of the citizens
- The real education is life. The gurukula means it is a way of life training. It is said that brahmacari gurukule vasan danta. This is the way of life: how to learn controlling the senses

- The Vedic literature gives the knowledge that can lead one to understand the Absolute Truth - Brahman, Paramatma or Bhagavan. Guru-kula, or the reformatory educational institution, should be used only to understand Vedic knowledge
- These children are being educated from the very beginning of their life how to become responsible man. This is the idea of our gurukula. So these children should be taught

- This Gurukula I suggested, but Satsvarupa started it; so you can take practical advice from him
- This was brahmana's profession. They would not charge anything, but his disciples, students, would beg from door to door and bring. That is gurukula
- To take care of the children, to educate them, that will depend on their parents. Now our Pradyumna was complaining that in the Gurukula, his child was not educated to count one, two, three, four. So I have told him that "You educate your child"
- Trained in the guru-kula to adhere to a life of renunciation and sense control by practicing brahmacarya
W
- We are proposing to start a Gurukula here in London so that Indian children may be admitted. Indian gentlemen are perplexed because there is no institution to admit children to keep intact the Indian cult
- We have opened our gurukula asrama in Dallas. We are teaching from the very beginning of life small children how to become brahmacari. That is required
- We should be careful to educate our sons, our boys, with bhagavata-dharma from the very beginning of life. That was the Vedic system. Therefore, in the first twenty-five years of life, the children were sent to gurukula for learning this bhagavata-dharma
- We want to establish a small gurukula as mentioned in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, accommodating willing Vaisnavas who will follow the Vaisnava behavior strictly; arranging worship of the Deity by the sincere devotees who will not take any remuneration

- When one goes to a guru-kula, he immediately becomes the menial servant of the guru. If the guru orders him to perform some lowly service, he is prepared to do it. This is the business of a brahmacari
- When one spits on the sex pleasure, that means he is elevated in spiritual life. So in the material world that is not possible. But by training, by knowledge, one can be elevated. That is gurukula. So these are the general principles. Now arrange

- Which land did he show you? What is the area of the land? Is it suitable for Gurukula? I want the land just in front of our temple. The entrance to the Gurukula will be on the road, and we shall partition this land from the rest of the land with a wall
Y
- Yes, the process is to give the very best to the Spiritual Master no matter what the cost. Just like you'll recall in the story of Krishna and Sudama at the Gurukula of their Spiritual Master
- You are experienced and if you take up the charge of our gurukula, it will be a great relief for me, but the principles are described above. We do not want anything more or less
- You are very fortunate to be attending the Gurukula school. You please take advantage of it and become a pure devotee of Lord Krishna
- You have some experience now with Gurukula, so your full-time engagement should now be how to organize the Gurukulas all over the world
