Hare Krishna to all the devotees All glories to srila Prabhupada I have heard that out of all the senses , tounge is the hardest to control and that one who can't control the tounge can't advance in devotion.Also how uncontrolled tounge leads to uncontrolled other senses (especially genitals, i.e, illicit sex).But I find it very difficult to control it, even when I can control nonsense talking a little, overeating is very hard to reduce. How can I reduce both nonesense talking and eating?

Read more…Hare Krishna! Dandavat Pranam to all!I am in the creative field, pursuing the art of filmmaking. I've seen videos and heard of Devotees using Art, as in, painting as worship, as an offering to Krishna, which is aptly named 'Krishna Art'.I was wondering how I could use the Artform of film as an offering, as a form of worshiping the Lord. Do I chant his name throughout the process of writing,shooting, editing? Perhaps I carry a copy of the film and offer it to deities in a nearby temple or a…
Read more…Hare Krishna! Dandavat Pranam to all!I consider Krishna as a friend, but every now and then, almost every few hours, I feel like he's putting in all the effort, and I'm simply asking him things and not reciprocating. I do have some addictions which I'm trying to overcome, and I do achieve that, sometimes for a week, two weeks maybe, but ultimately when I think "oh I've done it", eventually I end up returning to it, even when I think "it's so easy to give up". Whenever that happens I feel…
Read more…Hare Krishna to all the devotees All glories to srila Prabhupada I was seeing that nowadays many people are creating content (even for selling clothes and stuff) using young girls, with their videos/photos. Even this AI influencer stuff . Isn't that like using the lust of people to attract them and make money? Does such things be done like using lust of others to make money out of it. Just a question arised in my mind, I would like to know whether such stuff is okay or should not be done or…
Read more…Hare Krishna to all the devotees All glories to srila Prabhupada According to upanishads there are two birds one enjoying the fruits of different tree and enjoying or suffering the results (soul) and other just witnessing his actions (SUPERSOUL). After suffering and enjoying so much we finally get to know about our svarup of surrendering unto krsna. Even after knowing that we have to and we must surrender unto Krishna and serve him, we is very difficult to do so. When we can easily go from one…

For nearly twenty years, New Vrindaban has hosted its beloved 24-Hour Kirtan, a festival built around a very simple formula: dedicated kirtan singers, a good sound system, water, lozenges, and plenty of prasadam. With these ingredients, the temple room naturally fills with transcendental sound and joyful devotion.
Last year, Ram Raya Dasa of the New York City Harinam group suggested expanding the spirit of the 24-hour kirtan by…

A staunch proponent of the philosophy of personalism, he taught that although the Supreme Lord and the individual souls…
Jaya Govinda and I took to the road with a rented four-wheel drive to address any springtime muddy roadway dynamics at the Saranagati farm community. We left Vancouver through rain on the Trans-Canada Highway (AKA ‘The #1’), and as we headed north for our destination-the rain let up. I was recalling how thirty years before, I tread this trail on foot for my first cross country…
