"Although God has no parents as He is eternal and is the father of everyone, yet He can agree to become someone's child - have a little baby form and a devotee to serve Him as a parent. As a parent, the parents think that they are bigger than the child.
The parents always want to protect the child. Even though Krishna is the Supreme protector of everyone. His parents always think, "I have to protect Krishna. If I don't protect Krishna, some danger will befall Krishna."
So the parents a |
Sometimes, Krsna used to perform the rasa dance here with Radhaji and Her friends.
After Sri Krsna's departure to Mathura, all of Vraja drowned in an ocean of seperation from Him. What to speak of the gopas and gopis, even the birds and animals gave up eating and drinking, feeling distressed in seperation from Krsna. Krsna's beloved gopis followed Akrura's chariot to this point and then fell to the ground unconscious. They

1. As He walked down the King’s road, Lord Madhava then saw a young hunchback woman with an attractive face, who carried a tray of fragrant ointments as she walked along. The bestower of the ecstasy of love smiled and inquired from her as follows.
2. [Lord Krsna said:] Who are you, O beautiful-thighed one? Ah, ointment! Who is it for, my dear lady? Please tell Us truthfully. Give Us both some of y

Yesterday I came across this wonderful lecture on Holy Name by H.G Bhurijana Prabhu. In this lecture he is teaching a practical method to concentrate on Chanting.
Here is the link to lecture:

The real duty of person who is preaching the philosophy is not to entertain people with fanciful philosophy or to theoretically convince people of the right way of life, but to generate enthusiasm within a person’s heart to render service to the lord and chant the holy names of the lord. - Bodhamrit-II

Challenge: Science is Saving the World
Hare Krishna, Gurudeva,
Thank you for the inspirational daily thoughts. May Krishna elevate you tohighest level for bringing us joy even in our darkest moment. Blessed are youto have this blessing from Krishna Himself.
Regarding your statement in yesterday's "Thought for the Day" thatthe scientists will not be able to make us immortal. To me your statement iscalled vanity and fruitless work, misleading to the masses and disturbing theminds of devotees.

The power of just being in the presence of a pure chanter of the holy name cannot be overestimated. The potency “exudes” from his person. You want to chant because you see how blissful he is in chanting, and if you talk to him you hear the gems of wisdom.

We don't need to be in a hurry to chant our Japa, we just need to concentrate and steadily chant with determination and conviction to get back to Godhead. Don't be like the rabbit and race ahead to the end of your 16 rounds....relish the Holy names as you would relish delicious prasadam.

association.
If one is in good association he can develop the mode of goodness, and
if in bad association he may develop the mode of darkness or

BG 10.9: The thoughts of My pure devotees dwell in Me, their lives are fully devoted to My service, and they derive great satisfaction and bliss from always enlightening one another and conversing about Me.

Leaders who have fallen into ignorance and who mislead people by directing them to the path of destruction [as described in the previous verse] are, in effect, boarding a stone boat, and so too are those who blindly follow them. A stone boat would be unable to float and would sink i
