HARE KRISHNA,

Tomorrow is our most beloved Lord Sri Krishna's birthday , our creator who has created the whole universe would no doubt be adorned in the very best of silk, magnificent dazzling crown and various other priceless ornaments, etc.

It has always been my practice over the years that we all celebrate our birthday by wearing new clothes, eating cakes and sweets, etc , in addition to this every festival of our Lord Sri Krishna be it his birth, his float festival, his wonderful procession et

Recently, I have read one of interesting article from leading newspaper about spiritual organizations are started FMCG companies & become very successful in India. They are critics & generalized all the spiritual organizations. If you want to become successful business man in india first become spiritual teacher.

We all like a good story. It makes our day, inspires our heart, and we experience a gamut of emotions. When it comes to Krishna’s birth story he doesn’t disappoint. In Sanskrit, stories about God are called Lila. This is to remind us that His stories are not of the world, although sometimes taking place in the world.

There are many reasons Krishna comes here, and they converge, layer upon layer, story upon story, to create ”Lila”. For his birth Lila, Janmastami, we’ll pick up the action in the

As we approach Janmastami, Krishna’s birthday, we’ll be thinking of what to give. It’s a birthday celebration after all and everyone’s invited. The guest list is unlimited and when it’s a birthday we think of expressing our love with a gift.

Each of us has a unique and personal relationship with Krishna. Our world is not just me, myself and I. It’s me, the world, and Krishna. And still, this is our story as we are the main player. Everyone else is a supporting cast member. Even Krishna stands b

Every morning the meditation on theMahamantra offers us the possibility to discover important things, for example to achieve those intuitions which are rarely obtained during other moments of the day, because usually we are too busy in carrying out our worldly activities or mundane duties, which, of course, are also useful if we make them functional to our spiritual development.

But those sweet and sharp, enlightening and inspiring intuitions we can obtain during theBrahma Muhurta hours throug

The harmonium was born in Europe – so how did it become synonymous with Indian music?
The Indian harmonium similarly made its way to the United States in the first half of the 20th century, but it was the Asian immigration wave in the 1950s-1960s that popularised it.
This was also the period of the American Counterculture, an anti-establishment cultural movement fuelled by such disparate elements as women’s rights, race relations, and the Vietnam War. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, founder of

Who’d have thought? A Krishna temple in the heart of the Salt Lake Valley?

Caru (Cha-roo) and his wife, Vai Bhavi, are local leaders of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, started in New York City in 1966 by a devotee of Krishna — “God,” in the Hindu vernacular — named A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. It’s more commonly

Hundreds of devotees and guests attended two programs at the Sydney Opera House. One in the afternoon and the other at night.

The theme was, “The Transcendental Journey,” which depicted Srila Prabhupada’s coming to America and incorporating ISKCON 50 years ago.

It was a wonderful day with plays, dancing, kirtana and speeches.

“Mrs. Nair’s husband died, and eventually she had a a change of heart. She surrendered to Srila Prabhupada and said, ‘I really didn’t go along with my husband; I didn’t want him to do that.’ Srila Prabhupada replied, ‘Don’t worry. You are like my daughter. If a man is going on the wrong path in the morning and comes to the right path in the evening, he is not lost. Now you have taken the right path and have reached home. You can stay in any of our centers; we will take care of you. Now you just

The Bhagavad-gita likens knowledge to a sword (jnana-asina). Its sharp edge can lop off our doubts and give birth to firm conviction. Yet, the acquisition of knowledge comes with a great responsibility.

Question. 1. How to overcome depression? Right from my student days I have developed inferiority complex and at times I find it really difficult to overcome. My parents and brother have been extremely supportive to me in this regard. But still it is not totally gone. After getting introduced to Krishna Consciousness through my brother, things improved a lot but when my Sadhana started going down and is not consistent, this also started to lead me to hopeless mind state. Are there some practical

Most often, one question that keeps nagging  us when we are chronically sick, when our losses (financial , or any other) suffering and pain becomes unbearable prompting us to ask " WHY ME OF ALL THE PEOPLE"? . The more it hurts, when we review the balance sheet of our life in the most truthful manner and find that we have been fairly good in our conduct and if not the very best , at least we have never harmed any one intentionally then why the never ending dark clouds that hover ove
