Krsna is God; whatever He likes, you have to supply. That is God. Why He likes, we cannot question. That is not the business of the servant. So as servant we simply obey the orders. That's all. That is real servant.

Hare Krsna
Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada
By His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Caitanya Mahāprabhu has given one line of Vaishnava behavior: asat-sanga tyāga ei vaishnava ācāra [Cc. Madhya 22.87]. Simply give up these rascals’ association. Rascal means the Māyāvādī, karmī, jnānī, yogi – they are all rascals. It is our open declaration. So we have to give up the company of these rascals. If we are actually serious about advancing in Krishna co

Once upon a time a certain tradesman was leading a caravan to another country to sell his goods. Along the way they came to the edge of a severe hot-sand desert. They asked about, and found that during the daytime the sun heats up the fine sand until it's as hot as charcoal, so no one can walk on it - not even bullocks or camels! So the caravan leader hired a desert guide, one who could follow the stars, so they could tr

The propensity of fear is due to a strong bodily attachment. We are very much attached to this body. You know that the body will suffer but since you want to use the body as the medium of sense enjoyment; you don’t want the body to suffer. If you could get the sense enjoyment without the body then you would not care for this body.

Many a times we come in spiritual life, we get initiated but anchor is still stuck to our material attachments, to our possessions etc. so even if you keep rowing the boat, it does not move forward.Therefore, we should carefully and attentively chant the holy names. On doing so, you will be able to make spiritual advancement. Attentive chanting means that when you sit down to do sixteen rounds of japa we should focus fo

It’s extremely seductive, when sharing with others about your workday, to focus primarily on the negative. A fairly typical response to the question, “How was your day?” is, “I had a really tough one.”
If you elaborate, it’s likely that you’ll focus on how little time you had, the tough issues and conflicts, problems, difficult people, hassles, your sense of hurry and being rushed, negative employees, all the things that

There are two living entities. One is trying to forget God, and another is trying to remember God. That's all. There are two kinds of people, or men. Men, not the animals. Animals cannot understand what is God. It is the business of human beings. So if you want to know God sincerely, seriously, then God is within yourself. He'll give you intelligence how you can know Him. But if you want to forget God, challenge God, "There is no God. God is dead," then He'll give you such intelligence that you'
Why is Shri Radhaji's name not openly stated in the Shrimad Bhagavat?
Today is the birthday of Shri Radhaji. On this holy day, enjoy reading Pujya Bhaishri's Sandesh on the significance of Shri Radhaji and why her name is not explicitly stated in the entire Shrimad Bhagavat. Many people say, "Bhagavat is mainly the story of Lord Krishna but Shri Radhaji is not explicitly mentioned anywhere within it!"
It is true that Shri Radhaji's name is not mentioned in the Shrimad Bhagavat, but it is untru
Question Answer Session from a Lecture by H.H. Giriraj Swami Maharaj at San Diego, CA on 21 Aug 2004 on Sri Radhastami
Devotee : Swamiji, you said that Srimati Radharani is supervising the devotional service. Is it because She knows what the standard of the service is that She is able to supervise the service?
Giriraj Swami : Yes, that is true. She Herself exemplifies the highest standard of pure devotional service to Krsna. But we cannot expect Her to personally supervise our service. For that
