Giriraj Swami's photo.

Hearing Srila Prabhupada on Sarat-purnima . . Last night was sarat-purnima, and I listened to Srila Prabhupada’s dictation of Krsna book, “The Rasa Dance: Introduction,” and was especially charmed by the following section:

“When Lord Krsna began to blow His flute, the gopis all over Vrndavana became enchanted. . . . Immediately upon hearing the vibration of the flute, they all left their respective engagements and proceeded to the spot where Krsna was standing. While they ran very swiftly, th

Devotees Worldwide Pray for Mukunda Goswami.
Maharaja is currently in the Intensive Care Unit, and his orthopedic surgeon plans to operate on his hip today. According to the surgeon, as well as the general risks of the operation associated with old age, Mukunda Goswami is especially high-risk due to having just undergone a major six-hour triple bypass surgery on top of his already weak heart. However, delaying the operation also carries a high mortality risk, as Maharaja’s lungs have begun to ra

When Swami Met Sally

By Satyaraja Dasa

The kindness of strangers played a pivotal role in ISKCON’s pre-history.

Last year I had the good fortune to meet Gopal and Sally Agarwal, an elderly couple who played a significant role in ISKCON’s origins. They are forever etched in the devotees’ collective memory as two of the Western world’s earliest recipients of Srila Prabhupada’s mercy. It was the Agarwals who hosted him in the fall of 1965, before ISKCON was even nominally born, giving him shelter, hospitality, friend

By Deva Madhava Das

They wear special cloth, prepare foods only eaten on these rare days, and congregate in mass around a few exceptional people that are taking part in a ceremony lasting over 3 hours. All the while they chant two and three word phrases together in cadence, which creates and encourages a collectively desired experience.
