It does not need any explanation as to why, from the day he got elected as the Prime Minister of India, and to a good extent even prior to that, Narendra Modi has been a prime target for the Islamic terrorists. His brief visit to Pakistan has just concluded and it’s a relief to many India lovers that no untoward incident took place while he was on Pakistan soil, and Navaz Sarif and Pakistan army deserve a big and sincere applause for this. It also shows that the government of Pakistan is still

Understanding the principles, then details become clear.
So basically what we would like to discuss, with the blessings from the assembled devotees and Maharaja, is that in approaching or understanding the Sadhana or the culture of Krishna consciousness there’s some basic philosophical points on which it’s all based and by understanding those then the rest of it becomes quite easy. If one understands the principles, then the details underlining those principles becom
Why Meditate on Prabhupada?
“Just as a person travelling on the road rests one foot on the ground and then lifts the other, whereas a worm on a vegetable transfers itself to one leaf and then gives up the previous one, a conditioned soul takes shelter of another body and then gives up the one he had before.”
Purport:
“This is the process of the whole transmigration from one body to another. At the time of death according to his mental condition, the living being is carried by the subtle bod

Lasting Impression…
Today was a beautiful day in Bournemouth, UK. At one point Nandan stopped someone who had received a “Science of Self Realisation” some time ago. The man was so amazed by the pictures that he decided to get one of them tattooed on his back!

Bhagavad Gita is fundamentally built on the platform that the soul is eternal and the body is temporary and that both are unique and distinct but co-existing. The entire theme the reader will encounter in the later chapters are founded on this fundamental idea. If we miss this point, Bhagavad Gita will seem incompatible with practical life. If we assimilate this point, Bhagavad Gita is the most practical book in life. So it is a matter of consciousness, are we reading the book as a
