So Pariksit Maharaja had a notice of death for seven days, but we do not know what is the notice. We can die immediately. So how much for us it is necessary to chant Hare Krsna mantra. Pariksit Maharaja had some time. This Bhagavata-saptaha is imitated under Pariksit Maharaja's...

A New Year's Message of Hope
Night is falling quickly this winter evening, and it is snowing again. I am sitting in our little Gaura Bhavan Ashram, on the shore of Lake Wannensee, and thinking about each of you whom I met during the past year. I want to send you a message of hope - realistic hope.
Throughout my pilgrimage to Vrindavan, India, a sweet realization entered my awareness again and again. That is, Krishna is unlimitedly merciful. We simply
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.

Krsna is within everyone. Isvarah sarva-bhutanam hrd-dese 'rjuna tisthati [Bg. 18.61]. So He is called caitya-guru, means guru within the heart. And when Krsna understands... Because Krsna knows everything, whatever we are willing, whatever we are doing. He is the Paramatma; He's sitting within our hearts as witness. Anumanta upadrsta. Upadrsta means simply observing what we are doing, and what we are desiring. So as we desire, Krsna is very kind, He gives us facility. We have many times explain
Hare Krishna,
I am extremely sorry for the last post (now deleted). I was adding another page, copying whatever verses I had saved on the sweetness of Krishna, and instead of adding it like a page I sent it as a new blog, a fallout of waking up in the middle of the night on a spiritual burst!
Kindly check the new page entitled My Sweet Lord by clicking HERE.
I haven’t made new year resolutions since many years but right now I feel inspired to write that my new year resolution is that henceforth I w

30th Dec, 2014. Gurgaon
Over last some months I developed a habit that as I would read purports by Srila Prabhupada I will look for answers that Prabhupada has given in his writings. Many a times I have shared them on this blog as Q&A. I have tons of them, while reading on my phone or ipad I simply copy paste them on the device itself and hence its very convenient for me to do it.
Two days back I felt as if Srila Prabhupada is telling me that why am I holding all that information with
