The Glories of Lord Nrsimhadev

A lecture delivered by Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami in Bhubaneswar 14 May, 1995 on Lord Nrsimhadev’s appearance day.

It was appearing like a flower garland on the chest of Nrsimhadev. It seems as if a lion had killed an elephant. So many of Hiranyakasipu’s soldiers came out to fight against the Lord, but the Lord, with His sharp nails, tore them apart and all were killed. There are many descriptions.

“Lord Nrsimhadev’s mouth and mane were sprinkled with drops of blo

Prahlad Maharaj's Preaching Begins

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 

Prahlad Maharaj was a boy who, at 5 years of age, preached to his school-fellows of their urgent need for taking to Krishna Consciousness without delay. Prahlad was the son of a very powerful atheist king, Hiranya Kashipu, and so from the moment of his birth he was in the hands of "Daityas," or enemies of God.

A Hospice Miracle--Serving Jayananda's Mother

Remembering Jayananda Prabhu

“Jayananda's death is glorious. It is very good that he had stated, what is the use of such a useless body, better to give it up. He has left his body very wonderfully, and he has been transferred to Vaikuntha. I have already sent a condolence letter for publication in Back To Godhead. Everyone should follow the example of Jayananda. I am very proud that I had such a nice disciple" (Srila Prabhupada's Letter to Rameshvara – Hrishikesh, May 11, 1977)

Anyone who wishes to acknowledge the simple truth that “I am Lord Krishna’s servant” can wear tilaka, the clay mark devotees wear on the forehead and other places on their body. You may not feel you have much devotion to Krishna, but you’re not prohibited from wearing tilaka, because it’s a sign that you’re trying to be His devotee. What’s more, the qualifications for being Krishna’s devotee
