This is a question that is asked sometimes about the morality of Krsna – is Krsna immoral? Someone asked a question – “Do we have to give up our conception of mundane morality in order to worship Krsna in Braj?”
No, we answer. You don’t have to give up worldly morality, but we mustunderstand that Krsna is not immoral. He is the highest, most moralPerson. That is why we see throughout the vedic literature that the mostrespected and exalted persons in the universe are praying to thebraja-gopis.

This is Tattva Darshan, February 2009. Srila Prabhupada gives a very nice explanation about simple living and high thinking. This is a room conversation in Bhubaneshwar, 31st January 1977, about 32 years ago.
Srila Prabhupada said, our aim should be a simplified life. We should not be attracted by the modern city life. We should save time and utilize our free time for advancing in Krsna consciousness. That is perfect life.
Just like Vrndavan, Vrndavan life means agriculture, cowherd boys, uneducat

1. O queen, when, with great love, will I carefully light an abundance of aromatic incense, fan You, and perform other suitable services as You take Your meal?
2. O sweet-limbed girl, when, the hairs of my body standing upright in ecstasy, will I place a betel leaf filled with betel nuts and camphor into the lotus flower of Your mouth?
3. O girl with the beautiful face, on the strength of some good fortune will I, as a vine of devotion here, in a secre

Some of the most exciting book distribution incidents have taken place at the Mumbai Central Railway Station. It all began in the mid 80's, when book distribution as a part of regular service in the
Radha Gopinatha temple in Chowpatty was still at a nascent stage. With very few devotees distributing books, nobody had ever thought of going to the railway station.
One day Krishnananda Prabhu decided to take the initiative and told me to accompany him. I had just joined the temple. As a teenager comi

One day, the supremely playful Sri Krsna was sitting in the shade under the trees on the northen bank of this lake, together with the gopis, and was laughing and joking with vinodini Sri Radhika. At that time, many monkeys from nearby places descended from the trees, being attracted by Krsna's sweet beauty. They respectfully bowed at His lotus feet, sang in joy, jumped and danced. Severa
SB 4.5.22: Then Vīrabhadra, the giantlike personality, sat on the chest of Dakṣa and tried to separate his head from his body with sharp weapons, but was unsuccessful.
SB 4.5.23: He tried to cut the head of Dakṣa with hymns as well as weapons, but still it was hard to cut even the surface of the skin of Dakṣa's head. Thus Vīrabhadra was exceedingly bewildered.
SB 4.5.24: Then Vīrabhadra saw the wooden device in the sacrificial arena by which the animals were to have been killed. He took the opport

Scientists of various disciplines are working hard to discover the principles of the biological clock within the human body that sets the pace for aging and finally signals the time for death. Thus they hope to learn how to prolong man’s life, and apparently they are making some progress. How successful their efforts will prove remains to be seen, but perhaps even more important: If they do succeed, how shall we use our ext
WHAT EVERY LIVING ENTITY MUST KNOW
The Krishna consciousness movement is essential in human society, for it offers the highest perfection of life. How this is so is explained fully in the Bhagavad-gita. Unfortunately, mundane wranglers have taken advantage of Bhagavad-gita to push forward their demonic propensities and mislead people regarding right understanding of the simple principles of life.
Everyone should know how God, or Krishna, is great, and everyone should know the factual position of t

Dear Prabhujis and Mathajis,
Hare Krishna! Please accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Gurudev!
Our beloved spiritual master H.H. Mahavishnu Goswami Maharaj has deep love and affection for the young children and he always encourages them. When children recite the verses from Bhagavad gita and Srimad Bhagavatam, Maharaj becomes extremely pleased. So many parents took to Krishna consciousness just because of Maharaj’s encouragement and appreciation of the small children.

I gaze on a splendour that bears the name Radha, a splendour glorious like millions of lightning flashes, a splendour joyful with a festival of amorous pastimes, a festival that has beautiful jasmine-decorated braids, hair parted with a splendid line of red sindura, wonderful tilaka drawn with nine jewels, glistening earrings on its cheeks, a locket on its neck, a great necklace, and new red gar
