Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
We are now accepting your Vyasa puja offerings for publishing in the Vyasa puja
book 2024.
Please use the attached template to write your
offerings. We request you to not use any other template or a new word document to send your offering. Otherwise it consumes a lot of our time to format and add the necessary
details.
Kindly note the
following guidelines and follow them strictly:-
- There is a box to
upload your photo in the template. Click on the centre of this box and you will
be able to upload your photo. This is mandatory for all devotees.
- Next to the photo is
a table where the current place of residence (city & state) should be
mentioned along with 1st and 2nd initiation dates
(if applicable). Guru Maharaja very much requires these details of all
devotees. So please do not take it lightly. Without these details, the offering
will not be accepted.
- After writing your
offering, please do a spelling check and format the paragraphs accordingly. Those
who are familiar with Microsoft Word can “justify” the paragraphs.
- Sanskrit verses can
be typed in ScaGoudy/Balarama/Tamal fonts with diacritics. No need to convert them to Unicode. Devanagari fonts can be used for verses as well.
- Once done, upload your offering in Microsoft Word format (DOC
or DOCX) only. Those devotees who do not have Microsoft Word can use Google
Docs and save the file as DOCX and then upload.
- We request all the devotees to type their offerings in either English,
Hindi or Bengali
language and then upload them in the given link.
- Handwritten offerings will NOT be accepted since it is very difficult to read the handwriting and many times
the photo of the written page is not clear.
- Offerings in any other language must be translated to English otherwise
will not be considered.
Once you are ready to upload your offering, you can do so by using this
link - https://bit.ly/BVKSVP2024
Please note that the last
date of submission is 4th December 2023 - 11:59 PM
Indian Standard Time. The link will not accept any offerings after this date and time.
The Vyasa Puja e-book
should be available on www.bvks.com after the Vyasa Puja in Puri.
Thank you
Your servants,
Rama Kumara Dasa & Gaura Bhagavan Dasa
