The virus of lust, greed, pride, anger, envy, illusion and false ego easily attacks a diseased heart. Happiness gives way to helplessness and we constantly strug

Thought Of The Day

Prabhupada: To understand, you have to take the training, spiritual training. You have to understand the words which God wants to let you know about Him. These are spiritual training. Spiritual training means first of all you must have little faith that "I shall be intimately related with God." Unless you have got this faith, there is no question of spiritual training.

Are we not easily put into stress by it, and are miseries not coming closer to us, day by day, in the form of old age, sickness and death? Is there any way we can avoid being disheartened by its presence? Srimad Bhagavatam has a specific ability to show the positive side of things, even in regards to kaala, the time element. In fact, the Bhagavatam relates a few instances of perso
