Establishing Varṇāśrama

 While acknowledging the near impossibility of establishing varṇāśrama in the modern age, His Divine Grace Śrīla A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda cited his spiritual predecessors and put forth a challenging mission for the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement to revive the varṇāśrama-dharma social structure and save human society from gliding down to hellish life. Accordingly, Śrī Śrīmad Gour Govinda Swami, as always, very strictly following the instructions of his most beloved spiritual master, delivered numerous lectures on this topic.

 ‘Vedic Dharma and the Ghastha-āśrama’ is a series of lectures, elaborating on the purports of Śrīla Prabhupāda, delivered by Śrī Śrīmad Gour Govinda Swami explaining the system of varṇāśrama-dharma and how it functions in the society, the basic Vedic rules and regulations, and the purpose of Vedic marriage, to assist us on our path of hari-bhajana.
