Srila Prabhupada Vani

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 

Unfortunately, the managers of the office building did not share the optimistic views of Srila Prabhupada and his followers. They disapproved of our loud kirtanas and received constant complaints from the building's other occupants, protesting the strong, pungent odors which bellowed out from the rear window into the offices above whenever prasadam was prepared. Suddenly, without prior warning, the management served a t

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 

Prabhupada's personal experiences and his instructions encouraged the devotees to carry on with their activities. Prabhupada worked with great concentration on his translation of the Bhagavatam, while Dayananda, in his off hours after work, looked for a new temple location, and the sankirtana party went out daily for chanting and Back to Godhead distribution. Prabhupada would still hold evening programs, but now, withou

Death - The final exam

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 

Everything is tested at the moment of death. Presently, we see that we are in a beautiful situation - beautiful body, beautiful environment, beautiful facilities. Now this beautiful situation should somehow or the other be utilized for a happy ending. The ending should be happy-that is the idea.If the end is not happy then the whole human life has been a failure.

Overall, Prabhupada was very pleased with this new facility. He was eager to establish Srila Prabhupada said a regular temple program as quickly as possible. It had not been easy for his disciples. Spread out in different locations, it had been difficult to keep everyone enthused. He had done as best as he could by holding regular evening classes, but without a proper temple, the preaching could not be developed properl

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

By His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedānta Swami Prabhupāda

 

Prabhupada in a jovial moodBhagavad-Gita proposes, that is wonderful thing, if you can stop death. And whole spiritual life means how to stop death.

It is advised in the Bhagavatam, “Don’t accept guru, don’t be father, don’t be mother, if you cannot stop death.” Either you don’t accept, or don’t become. Just like they want a guru (spiritual master) – so don’t accept a guru who cannot stop you

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Our sankirtana party had been going out daily, pushing Back to Godhead distribution and holding kirtanas throughout the city. The small house which we had rented was easy to maintain, and the low rent allowed us to save a major part of our collections. Prabhupada had discussed with me the possibility of a world tour beginning in Europe, and I had been saving money with this in mind. Our days were free of worry as we conc

Thought Of The Day

Prabhupada: Unless we are very sincere, we cannot cope with maya. That is not possible. If you remain a servant of maya, you cannot conquer over maya. You must be very sincere servant of Krsna. Then you can conquer. Mam eva ye prapadyante mayam etam taranti te. It is clearly said. Otherwise you are subjected to the tricks of maya.

Saptarsis: Founders of Vedic Civilization

Stars have captured our attention from our very childhood but unfortunately maayavad is so deeply rooted in our psyche that we have looked upon them as 'it' and not 'he'. This book helps break that misconception of viewing the seven stars as 'non-living' and 'inanimate constellation' called Ursa Major or Ursa Minor to respecting them as living entities as Saptarsis, with individual names and as interesting personalities. As we read their pastimes, we not only become more personal but also learn
