October 24. ISKCON 50 – S.Prabhupada Daily Meditations.
Srila Prabhupada: So far as I have studied, the American people are very much eager to learn about the Indian way of spiritual realization, and there are so many so-called yoga ashrams in America. Unfortunately, they are not very much adored by the government, and it is learned that such yoga ashrams have exploited the innocent people, as has been the case in India also. The only hope is that they are spiritually inclined, and immediate
Question:
How is it possible to control the mind?
by Laxmimoni dasi
It is certainly worthwhile knowing how to control the mind. Lord Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita that the mind can be controlled by constant "practice and detachment."(—Bhagavad-gita, 6.35). He says that wherever and whenever the mind wanders, due to its flickering and unsteady nature, we must bring it back under the control of the Self (—Bhagavad-gita, 6.26).
The mind is like a child; a child is attracted to everything. It wants

what is the vaisnava way of celebrating new year?
Srila prabhupada told , For us everyday is new year because krishna is everfresh & evernew & we are celebrating him , but these materialist people need to drink this poison to forget all the frustrations, misgivings of past year , we dont need to celebrate by being intoxicated as that is pleasure in mode of ignorance, we can celebrate by being intoxicated in holyname.
Morever this is not new year according to vedic tradition, as per vedic calendar
Srila Prabhupada’s own words: My Guru Maharaja (Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura) when I was twenty-five years old he ordered me long, long ago, to go to the foreign countries and preach Lord Chaitanya’s message. Somehow or other I could not assimilate his order until I was seventy years old. But it was better late than never. So also I was trying how to make a successful tour for preaching Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s message. So by the grace of my Guru Maharaja and by all your blessings, I we
My dear devotees,
Please accept my best wishes. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Most resolutions take the form of “do’s”–things I resolve to do–and “don’ts”–things I resolve to not do. And Vedic wisdom tells us that all do’s and don’ts should support one main do–always remember Krishna (God)–and one main don’t–never forget Him.
Now, practically, what can we do to always remember Krishna and never forget Him? The item most favorable for remembering Him is chanting and hearing: chanting and hearing
- You will remove this image or else I will tear it off!
- No way, I do that!
In this way I and my Muslim sister started to fight over the subject matter of Krishna’s image on the wall at our flat.
I used to stay with my mom and brother. And my elder sister used to study in other country for 4 years now. So she never knew about Krishna Consciousness. Whereas living among Muslim students she also embraced that tradition.
Once she came home on her vacations for few days. That tim
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a celebrity book distributor at Malad stall. For a first few days scores at Malad were not upto the mark. We would sell around 20 books in 3 hours.

He also bought pictures of Sachin Tendulkar and Amitabh Bacchan receiving BG from devotees. While announcing we started showing this pictures in one hand and BG in other ha
The Glory of Madan Mohan: When the Pujari slapped the Deity

Vrindavan, 2014.11.23 (VT):
Yesterday, I went to visit the Madan Mohan Temple with my daughter. After having darshan of Radha Madan Mohan, we went to meet Shri Sanatan Kishor Goswami (Panchu ji), the present Mahant of the temple.

We are just a handful of devotees but we have been touched by Srila Prabhupada’s teachings and are determined to broadcast the eternal wisdom of Krishna consciousness in this Northern European country.

Had you not been there
I would have been a tree
Without even a root
Nowhere to put my foot
Brought out the Chariot
Letting all pull the lariat
Of the great Lord God
With thousands cheer and laud
To know you gave books
Filled not just with words
But with powerful message
And the ultimate knowledge
Your wisdom has flooded
At large, the barren world
My senses too small
To take and hold it full.
That which taken as well,
To practice, I am unable!
Prabhupad, unto you my Master,
I bow down and surrender.

Every person is engaged in several activities throughout the day and mobile has become an unavoidable part of his life. In such a situation, how glorious it could get, if our mobile devices would deliver us the messages of the Supreme Personality of Godhead – Lord Sri Krishna!
In an attempt to turn this thought into reality, we designed and developed an Android and an iPhone/iPad application called as “Krishna Drive”
