Track-00_prastavna_n_prak-kathan.mp3"Did you know that the Bhagavad-gita is the most widely read book in history?" I asked a gentleman, a senior at the University of Houston. We had just met late in the afternoon, after most people had left for home. I prayed that my behavior with this person would please Sri Guru, remembering that the opportunity to preach is a real gift.
"But I have a copy already, so not today, thank you," he replied.
"Wait, sir," I insisted, "I have two other books with me." After showing him "The Science of Sel

On a Sunday we were in Juinagar distributing books near a pandal put up on the occasion of a major spiritual discourse by some well-known organization. The distribution went nicely, so around 3o'clock in the afternoon, as the program concluded, we were getting ready to leave. Just then two girls about twelve and fifteen years old happened to pass by our stall. I thought they might be interested, so I asked them, "Please look over this 'Krsna' book. See the color pictures? This is the best storyb

The teaching of Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati on raganuga-bhakti is, that ajata ruci (without taste) raganuga sadhakas (practitioners) should adopt the methods of raganuga sadhana that they are qualified to adopt in proportion to their development of sacred greed (lobhamayi sraddha), while following the angas (limbs) of vaidhi bhakti (regulated devotional service).
This follows Sri Jiva Goswami's Bhakti-sandarbha 311

(based on a webinar class on Prabodhananda Sarasvati’s fifteenth century classic, Vrndavana Mahimamrta)
“In this verse, Prabhodananda Sarasvati says that for a male sadhaka, the embodiment of maya or illusion is woman. In fact, there are many verses in this book about the perils of woman, which we compare to icebergs on the ocean of devotion for a male sadhaka. But why is this rasika-vaisnava, Prabhodananda Sarasvati, discussing this, since this book is about amrta or the nectar of Vrndavana?
"Jan Gan Man" is national anthem of India written by Ravindranath Tagore.
Many people dont know that it have 5 paragraphs (Because all are not sung)
It was written in Bengali but most of the words are Sanskrit.
Linguist tried to understand why Tagore wrote it for King George V?
They were trying to find with what intention did Tagore compose this song?
And they arrived at the conclusion that it was not written for King nor it refers to 'Bharat Mata' or mother earth it was specifically written for Lord
I have been a devotee for going on 10 years. My family is small, and we live in the city. There are not a lot of opportunities for me to learn how to be the most devout that I can be and, in truth, one of my biggest obstacles was my Ekadasi-phobia. I was just terrified that I would ruin it somehow by using a spice I shouldn't, or that I would forget entirely in the morning and go for my cup of tea.
Terrible, right? 10 years & I have not yet observed Ekadasi. I looked at the beautiful pictu

In Tomsk, there's angst;
About a Scripture in fame,
That man goeth against;
Truth, is verily a shame.
"Consign to Siberia",
Oft' heard as nowhere;
But with a new criteria;
'tis here now somewhere !
'Cos to ban they chose,
The Gita - a love tale;
Then Of souls there arose;
In India, a gale !
To surrender soul and mail,
For pure Love is amiss,
The Gita doth detail;
'Cos religions' no bliss !
How be it extreme ?
For a father's such care;
Now, He is the Supreme,
& In Love 'tis all fair.
Extremist notion,

Moscow: The Indian government had been alerted to the move by a Russian court to ban the Bhagvad Gita, but it reportedly did not intervene, claims press agency IANS.
