Difference Between Materialistic & Saintly Person....

Posted by Mayapur Vasi Das on June 28, 2011 at 12:24pm

In the material platform, in the material plane, everyone is self-centered. Everyone wants to exploit others. Everyone wants to cheat others just for his own advantage, that’s how one becomes a kripana. Kripana means very miserly. However, the saintly persons are very noble minded, very generous and extremely compassionate. They are always thinking for the well being of everyone. They are not even concerned for their own well being.

if I am genuinely searching for krishna-prema, I have not after all made any mistake in accepting the shelter of the lotus feet of pure vaishnav. Such vaishnav will not fuel our desire for dharma, artha, Kama and moksha or our hankering for wealth, women and adoration. The purpose of the Moaha is to help free us from these miserable conditions of life and attain Krishna-prema. By taking shelter of the lotus feet of pure devotee of Krishna, beggars for Krishna-prema become qualified to attain the

random desires and undisciplined impulses.

We just wanted to point out the forgiving nature of the Lord and His devotees. We
devotees also in our dealings with each other should be very forgiving and
magnanimous. Krishna forgave Brahma and Indra. Yudhishthira forgave
Dhritarashtra. Some may say that we are not so magnanimous. You may not be that
magnanimous but by attempting to follow the magnanimous you can also become
magnanimous. .(Srimad-Bhagavatam 7.13.28),Nizhny Novgorod, 10.06.03

Wednesday, 12 April 1972

Although originally their diet had been simple, it had lately become a habit with the cooks in Sydney to prepare "new and exciting" preparations for the devotees' lunch. As well as the standard dal and rice, the ladies now cooked bread buns, different types of vegetable dishes and big cookies with thick, sweet icing. But the most radical introduction had been the "brahmacari offering". Since somehow or other the devotees could not "hold out" till hot milk tim

Don’t Waste a Moment

Those who have realized that this human life offers an invaluable opportunity to work towards attaining the supreme goal, prize every moment of it. They are unwilling to waste even an instant in any other endeavor. They know that living entities in other species of life do not have the facility or good fortune to make progress towards the supreme goal and, accordingly, they see no value in living their lives in the manner of the lower species. Hence, upon attaining this extremely rare human life
