How to cultivate unflinching faith & determination in Spiritual Life | HG Umapati Prabhu (GKG)

Описание: Faith, Determination & The Africa Mission

"Faith is not just words; it is practical action."

In this session at Vamshivat Voice, Umapati Prabhu explains how Shraddha (Faith) and Determination are the foundation of Bhakti, using his 36-year journey in Kenya as a powerful example.

Key Highlights:
What is Real Faith?: Like a child trusts their mother to identify their father, a devotee must trust the "Vedic Mother" (scriptures) to find Krishna.
The Africa Miracle: In 1986, Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaj took over a struggling temple in Mombasa where there wasn't even food for the next meal.

Growth Against Odds: Through unshakeable determination, the mission expanded from one lonely devotee to 7 major temples and a 150-cow Goshala in Kenya.

3 Levels of People:
3rd Class: Those who don't start out of fear of rules.
2nd Class: Those who start but quit when troubles come.
1st Class: The rare soul who never leaves the task once it is started.
Practical Bhakti: Why traditional dress (Dhoti-Kurta) and tilak are not just rituals, but tools to please the Lord and overcome shyness.
