Srila Prabhupada: embodiment of simplicity……………….Nectarean Mellows 

Being simple is a very very great opulence in this age of Kali. Srila Prabhupada was so simple. He really didn’t want anything for himself. He just wanted to serve. He just wanted to speak the truth. Recently I was reading Srila Prabhupada’s Vyasa Puja offering in 1973 in London. There were hundreds and hundreds of devotees from all of the European continent and the UK coming to su

INCREDIBLE PREACHING IN ORISSA

I recently learnt through a first-hand experience how villagers in Orissa,India, are naturally seeking shelter of God and with a little training, Krishna consciousness becomes their second nature. And if Krishna consciousness doesn't reach them, there are others ready to mislead them and exploit their God consciousness.

Overeating, over-sense gratification, overdependence on another’s mercy and artificial standards of living sap the very vitality of human energy.  Therefore, the duration of life is shortened. Srimad Bhagavatam 1^st Canto, 1^st Chapter, Text 10.

Today, at 69 years old, Chaitanya Prema Dasa is a robust, healthy devotee, visiting the Potomac, Maryland ISKCON temple every Sunday and working at the Pentagon, where he has served for twenty-five years in the Department of the Defense Inspector General.

Seeing him, you would never guess that back in 1997, a
