The Varnasrama College Foundation (VCF) invites application for Retired Teachers who are interested to settle in Sridham Mayapur. 

VC Foundation is in the process of setting up its Varnasrama College Campus close to the existing educational facilities in Sridham Mayapur. 

Varnasrama College ONLINE (VCO) is the virtual “campus” of VC Foundation that will soon have its own website.

Human beings can inhabit any place on the surface of the earth by clearing jungles and converting land for agricultural purposes. People can keep cows, and all economic problems can be solved in that way. One need only work to produce grains and take care of the cows.

Every living creature is a son of the Supreme Lord, and He does not tolerate even an ant’s being killed. One has to pay for it. So indulgence in animal killing for the taste of the tongue is the grossest kind of ignorance. A human being has no need to kill animals, because God has supplied so many nice things. If one indulges in meat-eating anyway, it is to be understood that he is acting in ignorance and is making his future very dark.

The conception of four castes and four orders of life, as planned by the Lord Himself (Bg. 4.13), is to accelerate transcendental qualities of the individual person so that he may gradually realize his spiritual identity and thus act accordingly to get free from material bondage, or conditional life. In almost all the Purāṇas the subject matter is described in the same spirit, and so also in the Mahābhārata it is more elaborately described by Bhīṣmadeva in the Śānti-parva, beginning from the Sixtieth Chapter.

So in the beginning if we start a varnasrama college to teach internationally students from all over the world to learn to be educated as brahmanas, as Ksatriyas, as vaisyas, as sudras, by quality and work, that will be the basic principle of Krishna Consciousness. It is the duty of the government to see that everyone is employed. This is only possible when varnasrama is established.

COVID-19 ​is a pandemic currently ravaging almost every country in this world and as of 6th April 2020, over 1.3 million people have been infected and nearly 72,700 deaths have occurred. We, at the ​Prabhupada Research Institute for Integrative Medicine (PRIIMe), have compiled this handbook from various sources online and print material. We believe that this handbook would be a good manual in the hands of our learned devotees.
