Who is God?

Who is God?

God is that, which is the cause of itself, and the cause of all causes - sarva kaaran kaaranam.

God is all pervading - Omnipresent. Vasudeva or Vishnu means one who is present everywhere.

God is all powerful - Omnipotent. Everything is possible for God. Tena vina trnam api na calati - not a blade of grass moves without the consent of God.

God is all knowing - Omniscient, one who knows everything - past, present and future.

God is Imminent and Transcendental

God is Creator, Maintainer and D

Drinking chocolate

I went up to the front gate tonight to check out the fare at a new snack bar that Mahavira prabhu has set up. Situated just inside and to the right of the front entrance as you enter our property, it sells French fries, lassi, kachuries, and other small snacks. With three picnic tables, it has quickly become a social spot for the devotees, especially after the evening arati. Now that the weather is getting colder, some like to gather and chat over a fried snack or hot drink.

Thought Of The Day

Prabhupada: When our eyes are anointed with love of God, we can see Him everywhere. That is the injunction of the sastras. We have to develop our seeing power by developing love of Godhead. Premanjana-cchurita bhakti-vilocanena [Bs. 5.38]. When one is sufficiently developed in Krsna consciousness, he can see the Lord every moment within his heart and everywhere, wherever he goes. So this Krsna consciousness movement is an attempt to teach people how to see God, how to see Krsna. Krsna can be see

Bhagavad Gita Mahatyam in my Life.

Pranam

Hare Krishna Devotees

Bhagavad Gita is the greatest ever scripture on the earth.

The content and message in Bhagavad Gita through the own mouth of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is nothing but a great message to mankind.

My Personal Experience:

I am a Doctor and my study comprised of 6 years from 2008 to 2014. In 2008 I was a person who was not so much indulged in god worship and a happy go lucky person. I used to be like a person who was so much engaged in this material existence preoccup

The Lower Birth of Women

2514991698?profile=original

Throughout the sastra we will find statements that being in a woman's body is a lower birth. Let us try to understand these statements more deeply.

To begin with, let us remember that this refers to the birth, meaning the material body, which we can compare to a vehicle the eternal soul is driving for this life time. The male and female vehicle have very different qualities and natures in order to fulfill certain roles and functions in this world. Not only do they differ in the gross body, but

Is Scripture the word of God?

Scripture is the word of God who speaks directly or through His pure Devotee. 

Man is imperfect and cannot produce perfect revelation.

Lord Krishna - the Supreme Personality of Godhead, directly spoke the Bhagavad Gita to His devotee Arjuna. 

The Lord also speaks less directly through Prophets and Saints who commune with Him in their heart. These revelations are also Scriptures.

 

The Vedic Scriptures are Apaurusheya -they have no human author. The Vedas are Shabda Brahma - the direct word of God rea

Gatekeeper of Moksha - Sadhu Sanga

Once upon a time, the Sages Vishwamitra and Vasishtha, debated the relative merits of tapasya and satsanga.  Vasishtha asserted that satsang is the most spiritually powerful path. Vishwamitra insisted that tapasya is supreme. 

 

Vishwamitra, burst into the Vasishtha's satsang, and demanded that they ask Ananta Sesha Naga to resolve this difference of views. Although the satsanga started only 10 minutes before this interruption, Vasishtha agreed to humor Vishwamitra.

 

Soon, they reached Ananta Sesha
