Jai Narasimhadeva, AGTSP,
Bhakti Yoga has been healing addiction for 50 years almost, and the world is
not aware of the things we do, especially related to overcoming this
terrible disease of addiction.
Of course Bhakti Yoga does many more wonderful things than just heal
addiction, however for the hundreds of millions of people affected by
addicion - what we have is very very valuable.
We like to start a publicity and education campaign to share this knowledge
and practice, and invite people
I have a white bodied best friend who once told me the white man is the most hated being on earth. I was shocked to hear this. I did not like it and replied how can you say something like that? But then he explained by pointing out the historical bad things done by white males in different parts of the world, to people of darker skin and I could understand why he would say this. However once I read in a philosophy text book that all generalisations are false, . We have seen this to be true in th

There are two tracks (vidhis) required to walk safely on the spiritual path, as Srila Prabhupada often mentioned: In the same way as the physical train needs two parallel tracks, also the train of bhakti needs two tracks: one is the bhagavatvidhi or the path of sravanam and kirtana, also known as rag-marg and the pancaratrika-vidhi or the path of arcana, also known as vidhi-marg.

The chanting of the Holy Names of Lord Krishna is the supreme panacea for the age of Kali. Those who chant attentively with a sincere feeling will carry the purity and the ability to influence and create a lasting change in their own lives as well as that of others in the misguided civilization of this dark age. Small wonder that devotees are constantly encouraged to participate in programmes like the Holy Name retreats to help them with their chanting and thus lead their lives closer to Krishn

A famous comedian now passed on was famous for his routine that “I Don’t get no respect”. Not getting respect means receiving disrespect. Respect is an important word, and a word with many meanings. Here is something to start on from the dictionary which I think would be useful to consider in beginning our brief discussion:
RESPECT: esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a pers

In the beginning of Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna gets anxiety attack and then Krishna reacts to his anxiety. Interestingly, Krishna never gives a direct answer to Arjuna’s anxiety attack in terms of problems of war and the people involved in it, which was the basis for Arjuna’s argument. Instead Krishna gave His opinion based on a higher principle.
Similarly, when we face problems in our own lives, we should wear the hat of Krishna in the sense that we should step back from our problem and try to ree
