Later as per his request Jamadagni gave back her life. To avenge Karthaveeryarjuna’s son’s who killed his parents, he killed 27 generations of Kshatriyas. With the Ramavatara his role came to an end. To wash of his sins in killing the Kshatriyas, he gave all the land he won in charity. So

Achyuthachutha, hare paramathman,
Rama Krishna purushottama vishno,
Vasudeva bhagawan aniruddha,
Sree pathe ! samaya dhukka masesham.
That Hari who is the soul of soul,
Who has no death,
Who causes death at time of deluge,
Who is Rama and Krisna rolled in one,
Who is the greatest among males,
Who is the God of all the world,
Who never can be stopped,
And who is the lord of Goddess Lakshmi,
Be pleased to destroy all my sorrows.

Arjuna Uvaacha:
Arjuna asked:

Yaanir Naamaani Divyaanee Taani Chaa chakshva Kesava.

Which of these thousand names, should be chanted again and again,
And which of these divine names would make me see Kesava.

[The octet on the child who gives immortal bliss]
[Among the several forms of devotion in Hinduism, possibly one of the most easy is that of loving him as if he is your baby. This devotional hymn on Lord Krishna follows that approach. Lord Krishna is supposed to sleep on a leaf of a banyan tree and float on the surging waters of final deluge. He is supposed to hold his feet by his hand and put his toe in to his mouth. This hymn in its first stanza brings this image of Lord Kr

Prabhupada: Krsna has sent you His grain. You cannot waste it. This is Krsna consciousness. Live that way. And Krsna is providing so much facilities for becoming Krsna conscious, and why should we deviate and spoil this life, take the risk of again going into the cycle of birth and death? Commonsense affair. We have got the good, greatest opportunity to solve this problem of repetition of birth. Tyaktva deham punar janma naiti mam eti [Bg. 4.9].

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, 
Founder and Acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness

The transcendental vibration established by the chanting of Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare is the sublime method for reviving our transcendental consciousness. As living spiritual souls, we are all originally Krishna Conscious entities, but due to our association with matter since time immemorial

In this world of Maya, which is averse to the Lord, full of trials and tribulations, only patience, humility and respect for others are our friends for Hari bhajana. - Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura

Govinda Swami: I made a terrible mistake yesterday evening after having experienced nectar at Srila Bhaktisiddhanta’s home.

I came back to my room and read the news of the strife, and death, in Kiev, Ukraine.

I understand that without knowledge of the science of the soul and the soul’s eternal relation to God, life in this world is an blazing fire which ends with our bodies being burned to ashes in the flames of death.

No one; no political party, no regime, no dictator, no fair and just lead

HH Bhakti Purusottama Swami: Because we are celebrating Kirtan Mela, so these 4-5 days, we are instructed to speak on the glories of the Holy Name. So in this regard, I have chosen one verse for today, the last verse of Srimad Bhagavatam. 12th Canto, text number 23. The conclusion of Bhagavatam and the conclusion of all Vedic literatures is been described in this verse.
