Ambarisa Prabhu:
From Srila Prabhupada Tributes:
“I remarked one time on a morning walk with you, that materialists were always looking for the bright side. You said gravely that ‘there is no bright side in the material world.’ You are that bright side, Srila Prabhupada. You are the sun which is bringing light to this place of darkness. We only beg for your continued mercy. We are in so much need of the compassion you brought so many years ago. Please engage us in your eternal seva [service].”
भगवान् श्री कृष्ण ही सर्व-आकर्षक क्यों हैं? श्रीमद भगवद्गीता यथा रूप में प्रभुपाद जी ने दूसरे अध्याय के दूसरे श्लोक के भावार्थ में कहा है, कि व्यासदेव के पिता, पराशर मुनि ने भगवान् शब्द की परिभाषा इस प्रकार दी है, कि समस्त बल, धन, शक्ति, यश, सौंदर्य, ज्ञान तथा त्याग से युक्त परम पुरुष भगवान् कहलाते हैं. इस संसार में एक सीमित मात्रा में यह सभी ऐश्वर्य लोगों में पाए जा सकते हैं, परन्तु कोई ऐसा मनुष्य न है जिसमें समस्त ऐश्वर्य पाए जाते हों. श्री कृष्ण ही वे भगवान् हैं जिनमें यह समस्त ऐश्वर्य सम्पूर

We read from Srimad-Bhagavatam, Canto Ten, Chapter Two: “Prayers by the Demigods for Lord Krsna in the Womb.”

Srila Prabhupada gave the first Krishna deity in ISKCON to the temple in Washington DC. Sri Sri Radha Madana-Mohana were moved to a bigger temple situated on 12 acres of beautiful forested land in Potomac prior to Srila Prabhupada’s visit in 1976. The building where Srila Prabhupada stayed for a whole week has been nicely preserved by the devotees.
During his visit Srila Prabhupada met with scientist disciples from Bhaktivedanta Institute. They accompanied him on several morning walks in idylli
Expression reflects and reinforces emotion. The celebration of Vyasa-puja is an expression of the gratitude that the disciple feels for the spiritual master. And that feeling becomes reinforced when a disciple expresses one’s own gratitude and hears other disciples’ express their gratitude.
The spiritual master’s guidance and grace are indispensable for elevating and liberating souls caught in this dangerous and treacherous material existence. The spiritual master is non-different from the Supr
On Monday 14 August at 6.45pm, on the eve of Sri Krishna Janmastami, Mother Kulangana passed away surrounded by devotees chanting the names of Krishna. This morning sankirtan was performed as her body draped in sacred items was carried around the temple in circumambulations. Devotees gathered to offer their final respects with offering garlands, flower petals and prayers. Her cremation will take place today and a memorial service remembering her life of service will be held on Saturday evening.
1) O Krsna, Who descended in the province of Mathura, O Lord Who gives the great gift of pure love for Yourself, O Perfromer of extraordinary pastimes, O great Treasure-house of various kinds of sweetness, O Lord Who is full of transcendental opulences, great mercy and majesty. All glories unto You.
2) O Krsna, O Deliverer of the Pandavas and Protector of King Pariksit, everyone should hear talks in relation with You, just as King Pariksit who enquired about Your pastimes.
3) O Krsna, you are s
ISKCON’s Mission
Srila Prabhupada’s sole mission in life was, as was his spiritual master’s and his spiritual master’s before him, the mission of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, to help the fallen conditioned souls who are rotting within this material world by teaching them the process of Krsna consciousness, devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Sri Krsna. Not only teaching, but benedicting and practically forcing them in one way or other to get some transcendental benefit.
Hare Krishna Dear Devotees,

Prabhupada's appreciation
On his return from the program, Prabhupada entered the temple, bowed down before Radha-Gopinatha, then stood, palms together respectfully in traditional Indian greeting. The lone brahmacari pujari, absorbed in singing and offering the late evening arati was blissfully unaware that Prabhupada was standing right behind him.
Afterwards, Prabhupada asked, "Who was that?"
"That was Kurma dasa, Srila Prabhupada."
Prabhupada smiled brightly and said, "Oh -- Kurma deva".
