The Meaning of Vyasa-puja

“Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Gosvami Prabhupada Maharaja introduced the first Vyasa-puja in our Gaudiya line on his fiftieth anniversary, and this has been duly performed from that time. Then on his fifty-second anniversary, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada Maharaja gave a lecture on Srimad- Bhagavatam and in conclusion he presented the meaning of Vyasa-puja. He said, ‘Vyasa-puja means the puja of all Gaudiya Vaisnava acaryas.’ Therefore from this statement we understand the purport of Vyasa-puja. It is not only the puja of Vyasadeva, or only the puja of Krsna, or only the puja of Gaurasundara, or only the puja of guru. That is not real Vyasa- puja. Vyasa-puja means the puja of all suddha, pure Gaudiya Vaisnava acaryas. That is real Vyasa-puja.”
