Thus they are unable to sleep at night, and they have to take pills for mental tranquillity to invite sleep. And sometimes even the pills are a failure.
Consequently the result of having accumulated money by so much labor is certainly not happin

Letter from Yamaraja
Different people are afraid of different things in life and one person's object of fear is not an object of fear for another person. However in general, fear of death is common to all. Some people may boast that they are not scared of death. However when they get some fatal disease which paralyse them or in case of dangers, the fear of death will be clearly visible in their eyes. There is no material

You accept these principles of life, no meat-eating, no intoxication, no illicit sex, and there will be no cancer. Those who are strictly on this line, they never suffer from cancer or any such disease. Now take for example me. I’ve come here in this country for the last eight years. How many times have I gone to the doctor? That one heart attack. That is serious, t

Once ‘Saunaka’, Son of ‘Sunaka’, a great householder approached Angiras as prescribed and asked, ‘Venerable Sir, Which is that thing by knowing which all this becomes known? [Mundaka Upanishad 1.1.3]

One day it was Govardhana Puja and we built a big mountain of rice and fed many people. The people took their leaf plates after taking prasadam, and threw them behind the building. Prabhupada was living up on the second floor, and we were sitting in the room together. He heard dogs barking and kids shouting so he got up and walked back on the veranda behind his room. Looking over, he saw that there was this big pile of discarded leaf plates and there were little scraps of
Prabhupada: So according to Vedic way, Krsna is the Absolute Truth. Krsna is Absolute Truth, accepted by the acaryas. Indian civilization is carried on the advice of the acarya-sampradaya. So all the acaryas like Sankaracarya, Ramanujacarya, Madhvacarya, they all accept Krsna as the Absolute Truth. So when we hear from Krsna then we get absolute knowledge.

Construction Company Gammon India and chairman Ambarisa Das (Alfred B. Ford) have addressed concerns raised by a former employee about the structural stability of the Temple of the Vedic Planetarium in Mayapur, India.
A former TOVP site supervisor had come across several internal operational emails between Gammon and the engineers of the TOVP, ISKCON’s currently under-construction headquarters. In the emails, Gamm

While being crucified, Jesus cried. But he did not cry for himself, instead he cried for those who were committing the gravest sin. Jesus was continuously praying to God to forgive those who were menacingly torturing and trying to kill him. Jesus, the son of God, had come to this world to spread the message of peace and love and to effect this change he was ready to sacrifice everything. This is the foremost quality of a holy man, for spreading God consciousness he is ready to brook any kinds of

By now many of you have heard of the sad, untimely passing of Keshava Dasi, wife and dear friend of Shaunaka Rishi Prabhu.
Keshava struggled with poor health for many years and passed away in the early hours of 19 December.
Keshava was the warmest of friends and with her sharp intellect it is no platitude to say that she was one of the forces behind the founding of the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, of which Shaunaka is the Director.
As a devotee of Krishna, Keshava was a wonder. The deep
