Dear devotees,
today, on the disappearance of Srila Madhavendra Puri, the celebration of Sri Advaitacarya’s Shantipur festival, just three days shy of Gaura Purnima, after months of work, it is with deep gratitude and joy that we present to the devotee community our latest film entitled For Tomorrow. Thank you very much.

Our politicians pay lip service to it. Our technology is indifferent to it. Our commerce despises it. Nonetheless, it is the weightiest and most im
Hare Krishna, so I’m very blessed today be sitting in this huge asana, actually I’m not qualified to do this. There is something that is called seva, by reading Srimad Bhagavatam it will purify you as well as purifies me as well. I see may senior Prabhupada disciples, sanyasis and senior matajis as well and gurus also. I’ll tell you, I’m not, my first language is French, I’m coming from Ivory Coast, Cote d’Ivoire, so French is my first language, and I’m trying to speak English. So you can bear

In a conversation with Acintya Rupa last night I was reminded of an incident that occurred in Mayapur during the GBC meetings and the importance of mass prasadam distribution. I happened to be in earshot of a rather intense conversation between two old friends, Ramabhadra Prabhu and Ramesvara Prabhu. They are currently at loggerheads over the selling of the Brooklyn property. The conversation was intense but, might I add, entirely amicable and respectful. There are ways to dis

Dear Maharajas and Prabhus,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Srila Prabhupada has set a vision for devotees to “hunt for the rhinoceros” and to “think big”. His Divine Grace personally believed in engaging the leaders of society in Krishna Consciousness in order to set an example to the common populace. In pursuance of this vision, by the blessings of Sri Sri Radha Parthasarathi and Srila Prabhupada, we received the rare opportunity of visiting the Honorable
Sridham Mayapur is actually the centre of the universe you can say Kurushetra you can say other places but Sridham Mayapur is the real centre of the universe.

Purushottam Nitai Das: He was so insignificant materially that no one cared about him. He was an unknown person living a life of penury. So, during the mahaprakash pastimes, when Lord Chaitanya told the devotees to bring Sridhar to him then all were amazed.
“Why is the Supreme Lord so concerned about him? And most importantly where could we find him?” The devotees were wondering.
“Go out and you will hear someone loudly chanting the holy names of the Lord. Follow the sound and you will come t
Sri Laghu-Bhagavatamrta is a magnum opus by Srila Rupa Gosvami further embellished with the intricate and vivid commentary by Gopiparanadhana Dasa. This theological milieu by the ace hermeneutic Srila Rupa Gosvami establishes Lord Sri Krsna as the Avatari, or the Source of all incarnations, upholding His pre-eminence as the superlative original Supreme Personality of Godhead.
