Read more…A humble inquiry to the devoteesAll glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!Hare Kṛṣṇa, dear devotees. 🙏I have a humble question regarding the narrations of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and I would be very grateful if the senior devotees could kindly help me understand this point.As we know, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam was first spoken by Śrīla Śukadeva Gosvāmī to Mahārāja Parīkṣit approximately 5,000 years ago, on the banks of the Ganges at a place traditionally identified as Śukratal, near present-day Delhi.

When beads are not practical,…

“How are you?” I asked.
“Great! I don’t like those hot, hot, hot days. This (weather) is just fine. And the leaves... (referring to the fall colours).”
He wasn’t at all…

In Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Srila Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami says that the pastimes of Lord Chaitanya are like a lake with many beautiful lotus flowers, which are love for Krishna—Radha and Krishna.
