  Parikramā means pilgrimage. This book is a compilation of all the places of Pilgrimage in Europe, Prayag, Ayodhya, Varanasi, Navadvipa, Jagannatha Puri and Vrindavana that I have personally visited. In these specific places are unique and wonderful deity forms of Kṛṣṇa called arca-vigraha. It is to contemplate, remember and deepen the connection to Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Lord, whom I worship in the form His arca-vigraha, or bonafide Deity form.  
  The beautiful Śrīmad Bhāgavatam (11.27.44-45) describe the festival of Deity Worship: 
  “Singing along with others, chanting loudly and dancing, acting out My transcendental pastimes, and hearing and telling stories about Me, the devotee should for some time absorb himself in such festivity. The devotee should offer homage to the Lord with all kinds of hymns and prayers, both from the Purāṇas and from other ancient scriptures, and also from ordinary traditions. Praying, “O Lord, please be merciful to me!” he should fall down flat like a rod to offer his obeisances.” 
  Deity Worship, or Arcana, is a festival for the senses, because one can see the Supreme Lord, touch His Lotus Feet, dress Him, feed Him and offer everything to Him. Especially recommended for the neophyte, Deity Worship goes hand-in-hand with the other eight limbs of devotional service, namely hearing, chanting, remembering, serving His lotus feet, offering prayers, being a servant, making friends and surrendering everything for the pleasure of the Lord. 
  Writing about Kṛṣṇa is also sravanam, kirtanam, Kṛṣṇa Smaranam, and it helps to grasp the unlimited beauty of the Lord. In 2023/24 I already compiled a book about ARCANA, Deity Worship, while being trained as a Vedic priest. This freely available book is meant for the pleasure of my Guru, Śrīla Prabhupāda and everyone who can't make the journey to Śrīdhāma Māyāpur to learn the science of Bhakti-Yoga.

  Hints to Young Students of...

  "HINTS TO YOUNG STUDENTS OF OCCULTISM" is the title the editor of the American Theosophist, Louis William Rogers, has chosen for his first book on theosophy. The preface gives an idea of the purpose of the work: 
  "The growing interest in the higher life, and the general search for information that is helpful in attaining it, is sufficient reason for the publication of this little book. The purpose has not been to write of the subject in hand either exhaustively or systematically but to put forward helpful suggestions for taking some easy steps in self-development. 
  "Many who earnestly desire to escape from the bondage of the lower nature and rise to spiritual illumination are at a loss how to proceed, or even how to practically apply to daily life the occult information they may have gained by general reading. This little volume is an effort to assist them-hints on how to utilize time and energy-a few guide-boards in the evolutionary wilderness at doubtful turns in the road, indicating the advantageous way to go and displaying warning signs across some attractive by-ways that lead to perilous places." 
  The basis of the work is a series of articles that appeared last year in this magazine, and which have been revised, rearranged and extended. Among the subjects discussed in the twelve chapters are Self Examination, Original Thinking, Persistent Effort, Thought Assimilation an Essential to Soul Growth, Safe and Dangerous Mental Conditions, The One Protection Against Danger, The Conditions of Spiritual Progress, Conquering Delusions, Faults to be Guarded Against, The Right Road and the Wrong One.

  Fitness for Dancers - Building...

  Understanding the dancer's body is fundamental to achieving both peak performance and long-term physical health. A dancer's body is an intricate system, requiring a blend of strength, flexibility, balance, and endurance. Recognizing how these components work together is the first step toward unlocking potential and preventing injuries. 
  Anatomy plays a vital role in dance. Knowing the basic functions of muscles, joints, and bones can help dancers identify how their movements are executed. For instance, the core muscles provide stability and support, allowing for controlled motions and preventing strain on the back. Similarly, understanding the alignment of the spine and the role of the pelvic muscles can enhance posture, a critical aspect of nearly all dance forms. 
  Equally important is recognizing the challenges unique to dancers. Repetitive movements, high-impact landings, and the intense physical demands of practice and performance can lead to overuse injuries if not managed carefully. Awareness of common issues such as shin splints, tendonitis, and ligament sprains empowers dancers to address them proactively.
