Suppose that we invest our hard earned money in a company’s share which promises to give a very high return at the end of the year. But we find that throughout the year the market value of the share keeps depreciating and at the end of the year we have lost all our money. Next year the same company again launches a new scheme and asks us to purchase its share. How many of us would ever think of buying the share from the same company again? Probably no one because the company would have lost its

                                                                       Service is something inseparable from man whether he wants or not.    So on one hand Krishna & the other Maya, It is just an alternative choice between the two. You must serve Krrishna or bound to be misfortuned. That is all..............Jay Srrila Prabhupad.....................Hare Krishna.

The material world is full of contamination, and one who is immunized by accepting prasadam of the Lord, food offered to Visnu, is saved from the attack, whereas one who does not do so becomes subjected to contamination. Food grains or vegetables are factually eatables. The human being eats different kinds of food grains, vegetables, fruits, etc., and the animals eat the refuse of the food grains and vegetables, grass, plants, etc. Human beings who are accustomed to eating meat and flesh must al

                                                                      "SADHU SANGA", The most indispensable requirement for true spiritual realization is so scare & rare during this Kali Yug, that men, in their desperate search for the same often fall prey to the "VANDAS" in the disguise of "SADHUS". This so happens due to the logical ignorance of inquisitiveness. Unless one knows what is really good, how can he search for something really good.

Prabhupada: Therefore you are individual. You know the pleasure and pains of your body. I know the pleasure and pains of my body. But there is another soul; that is Supersoul. Sarva-ksetresu bharata. He knows your pleasure, pains. He knows my pleasure and pains. He knows everyone's pleasure and pains. Isvarah sarva-bhutanam hrd-dese 'rjuna tisthati [Bg. 18.61]. Therefore, as soul they are one in quality, but in consciousness they're different. He knows everyone's pleasure and pains; I know my pl

One evening, Ramesvara prabhu called us all into the temple room for an emergency istagosthi and told us that Srila Prabhupada was in Hawaii but he was very, very ill and he was coming to Los Angeles that night; but no one should go to the airport and greet him, we should be very quiet around the temple and no one should try to ask for darsanas or anything like that. Prabhupada was ill and he was coming to rest, we wouldn’t see him at all. At the end he asked for question

Prabhupada: No, total human being, 400,000 species. Altogether, 8,400,000 species of living entities. So these are coming, evolution, by the laws of nature. You cannot stop it. The laws of nature, you cannot interfere. In this way we come to the human form of body, and especially civilized human being. Supposedly, it is the Aryans. The Aryan family, they are the topmost civilized group amongst the living entities. Now, in this life one has to enquire about himself that what is the difference bet

A Summary of Srila Prabhupada’s (Founder Iskcon)Miraculous Accomplishments from 1965 to 1977
by Paratrikananda dasa;

In reading many of the profiles of Srila Prabhupada, I’m saddened that a number of his important projects, programs and achievements are never mentioned. In the following summary I’ve tried to compile a more comprehensive list of his credits. Although this list is also incomplete, I hope it presents a fuller picture of Srila Prabhupada’s greatness.

                                                                  Questioning is something a spontaneous phenomena with almost all the living entities, whether seen & heard or not. This instinct continues to go on till his normal ways of living goes on. So,when this is bound to persist,then should it not be one's mind set to go on asking,....'Am I thinking as I should ?' Why this is happening to me ?  Why this is happening to me ? Something I de

 Prabhupada:" Yes. This is the order. Guru-mukha-padma-vakya, cittete koriya aikya. Now citta means consciousness or heart. "I shall do this only, bas. My Guru Maharaja told me; I shall do this."

Srila Prabhupada Says - [Regarding how ignorance of the law is no excuse]

Guest (4): The false wrong is that he is misled by material consciousness execute the things, really. If he is misled by other, by circumstances, this is... He has no fault of his own.

Prabhupada: That's all right, but innocence is no excuse of law. If you say that "Somebody misled me to go to the left side" in the court, oh, that does not mean that
