I thought the book was great and it gives you everything you need to know while and before you decide to be a devotee of Krishna conciousness. From bathroom etiquette to telling the difference between a married woman and a chaste woman it's all in this book. And if you've had the grace to meet the author,like I've had, then you'd know that this book is a mirror reflection of how the author conducts his vedic college. If you can make the time to take atleast a few weeks off from your regular rituals and enroll into the vedic college the book will become a living instruction on the life of a fortunate soul,your soul!

This book, by Danavir Goswami, is an excellent reference work for the neophyte as well as the advanced devotee. Maharaja is one of the nicest people you would ever want to meet and his understanding of Vedic culture is second to none. Learn from the best teacher... it's no suprise that ISKCON appointed him head of the Rupanuga Vedic College in Kansas City! This book is highly recommended!

Friends,

Once while rising very, very early in the morning i felt weary. The title popped out in it's bright yellow lettering, Fortunate Souls!!! I felt refreshed and let myself go on another day involved in Krishna Consciousness!!! One day at a time as the author notes himself, Danavir Maharaja ki jaya!!!

Your servant,
Jnana caksus dasa

After reading some of Bhaktivedanta Swami's books, I can only conclude that the author of this book missed out on a lot. He obviously has some private issues to deal with. His followers seem so too, as can be read from a previous review. 'What's the difference between a married and a chaste woman?' What's so unchaste about being married????? Very annoying and stuck up. Best to stick with Bhaktivedanta's Books. Maybe a suggestion for the author too.
