"How to Avoid Pain"? 

1) When one comes under the umbrella of Krishna Consciousness, there will not be any pain at all

2) Even though, there is a pain, devotees take it as it a great pleasure and gift of Krishna, for Krishna giving us an opportunity to be more closer  to HIM, thinking of HIM, praying HIM, at all times and under all circumstances.

3) our mood should always be of queen Kunti that we should always invite and accept problems and sufferings because only and only when one has pains /

Wonderful experiences in life are not planned. Cannot be planned. They come in our life out of the blue just like a beautiful aroma which suddenly wafts through the air and reaches our nose. completley out of its own accord. Experiences are like little pieces of a jigsaw puzzle which come together and produce a beautiful picture. It makes a picture complete. A picture of YOU. We should not be stingy or miserly. We should go out into the world and experience each day, each moment, each person as

It was just really simple - back in the early seventies, very very simple, like

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. He keeps a small altar with Srila Prabhupada and a large, beautiful picture of Lord Krishna in his office, so that his boss and co-workers see the Lord every time they have meetings there.

Seeing him, you would never guess that back in

One day while meeting with an Indian man, Mr. R. B. Pandya from Mombasa, Kenya, Prabhupada mentioned his illness. Mr. Pandya said he owned a house on the ocean at Mombasa, where it was always sunny and warm to recover his health. Mr. Pandya invited Prabhupada to go and live there as he liked. Taking the offer se

Introduction

The transcendental talk - the all powerful discussions of Bhagavad Gita, was going on between intimate friends, namely the Hrisikesa and the Gudakesa. As friends, both of them were on the same level, but one of them voluntarily became a student of the other.

Krishna openly speaks Bhagavad Gita

Krsna was smiling because a friend had chosen to become a disciple. As Lord of all, He is always in the superior position as the master of everyone, and yet the Lord agrees to be a friend, a son

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

One CANNOT AVOID death, but certainly one can try to avoid re-birth by going back to GODHEAD.

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.

My travels in Orrissa have been an eye opener. I first went to a remote village called Godamatori, two hours' drive from the Khurda Road station
