No; he was driven by lust for Sita, not love for Shurapankha.

After Shurapanakha’s nose was cut and her brothers Khara and Dushaan were killed singlehandedly by Rama, Shurapanakha went temporarily mad with fury and frustration, and wandered about crazily in the forest before thinking of going to Ravana. Meanwhile, the only survivor from the army at Janasthana, a warrior named Akampana, fled to Lanka and informed Ravana about the destruction of his army. The incensed Ravana wanted to immediately

Love is a big word

2515064975?profile=original
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, November 2015, Vrindavan, India, Video interview)

I have no love at all. I selfishly go to Vrindavan, just thinking of how much benefit I can get. Thinking of whatever little bit of mercy and dust I can get, so that I can be delivered from all this suffering in the material world. It is selfish motivation. I have no love for Vrindavan. What can I say!? Love is a big word – it is beyond a conditioned soul like myself.

I have no love for Srila Prabhupada because my heart

Close encounters of the B.B. King kind.
Jiva Nath: The year was 1977 and i was distributing books in O'Hare airport. One day while between concourses I noticed B.B. King walking towards me with a few other companions .

In this paper he points out that a moral-religious foundation is the default position for a sustainable spiritual life for the individual and the community.

Some spiritual practitioners think that now they have achieved some reasonable control of the physical sex urge, they are well nigh up there in the wispy clouds of victorious abstinence, deserving of respect and honour. Wrong! Congratulations on becoming a decent human being. Welcome to the world of subtle selfishness.

By Kesava Krsna Dasa

Srila Prabhupada states: ‘Illicit sex is the most prominent sin due to lusty desire.’ (SB 5.14.22 purport) This is because it is sometimes called ‘ adi-rasa
