In educated society today, we are exposed to this concept of 'Great Men'. These Giants, these Tall men are said to rewrite the history of the world with their magnificent ideas and actions.

From a very young age, we are advised to read their biographies, their books etc. We are advised to emulate them and strive to develop a character like them. We are encouraged to be just like them.

The realization that I had never possessed the inclination to do all of the above, came to me a few days ago.

And

No Moment to Reflect

Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Mathajis,

Please accept my humble obeisances! All Glories to Srila Prabhupada and Gurudev!

Now the auspicious Damodar month is going on and it is a very great opportunity to remind ourselves how the unconquerable Lord is conquered by the tassle of loving devotion unto Him. We are all offering lamp to Lord Damodar and

In conversation with Srila Prabhupada

Tamāla Krishna: How do we enter into the modes of goodness?

Prabhupāda: Just try to follow the four principles as we have prescribed: no intoxication, no gambling, no illicit sex, and no meat-eating. That’s all. This is goodness. These prohibitions are there. Why? Just to keep you in goodness. In every religion… Now, in the Ten Commandments also, I see that “Thou shall not kill.” The

So Krsna consciousness movement means to bring him to the right position of consciousness. Consciousness we have got. The more it is covered, dull, it cannot respond. But it can be brought into the proper existence, and the process is hearing, hearing. Go on hearing, hearing. Krsna has given us one chance, this ear. If we properly use it... Therefore Vedic knowledge is to be heard, hearing. Listen. It is therefore called sruti. The Vedic instruction has to be gotten from the right person through

Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Matajis,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudeva.

Few days ago the festival of Deepavali was celebrated. It is the day wherein Lord Sri Krishna was tied in the wooden mortar by Yashoda mata. Also this is the day of victorious entry of Lord Rama into Ayodhya after

But for one who takes pleasure in the self, whose human life is one of self-realization, and who is satisfied in the self only, fully satiated -- for him there is no duty. A self-realized man has no purpose to fulfill in the discharge of his prescribed duties, nor has he any reason not to perform such work. Nor

जन्मस्थली नन्दभवन से प्राय: एक मील पूर्व में ब्रह्माण्ड घाट विराजमान है। यहाँ पर बालकृष्ण ने गोप-बालकों के साथ खेलते समय मिट्टी खाई थी। माँ यशोदा ने बलराम से इस विषय में पूछा। बलराम ने भी कन्हैया के मिट्टी खाने की बात का समर्थन किया। मैया ने घटनास्थल पर पहुँच कर कृष्ण से पूछा-'क्या तुमने मिट्टी खाई?' कन्हैया ने उत्तर दिया- नहीं मैया! मैंने मिट्टी नहीं खाईं।' यशोदा मैया ने कहा-कन्हैया ! अच्छा तू मुख खोलकर दिखा।' कन्हैया ने मुख खोल कर कहा- 'देख ले मैया।' मैया तो स्तब्ध रह गई। अगणित ब्रह्माण्ड, अगण

Scientific Fact No. 6 - DNA Error Checking Proves Evolution is Wrong.

The scientific fact that DNA replication, including a built-in error checking method and a DNA repair process, proves the evolutionary theory is wrong. The fact is, any attempt by the DNA to change is stopped and reversed.

Chromosomes, Chromatin, DNA Replication and Repair

"Replication also contains built-in error checking. The frequency of errors is about 1 per 100 million bonds (1 x 10^-8). Over the entire human genome, that wor

The lastest Pew Research study reveals that 51% of scientists believe in God or a higher power, while 41% do not.  As reported in today’s Los Angeles Times, “Today, a century and a half after Charles Darwin published “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection,” the overwhelming majority of scientists in the United States accept
Darwinian evolution as the basis for understanding how life on Earth developed. But although evolutionary theory is often portrayed as antithetical to religi

Scientific Fact No. 1 - Birds Prove Natural Selection is Naturally Wrong.

The body and soul of Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution was his idea that evolution was made possible through natural selection. This concept is based on the suggestion that those members of a species that are a little stronger, a little larger, or run a little faster will live longer to procreate offspring with these superior adaptations. Darwin's theory suggests that millions of generations later the changes will result

The Theory of Evolution is not a scientific law or a law of biology. A scientific law must be 100% correct. Failure to meet only one challenge proves the law is wrong. This web page will prove that the Theory of Evolution fails many challenges, not simply one. The Theory of Evolution will never become a law of science because it is wrought with errors. This is why it is called a theory, instead of a law.

The process of natural selection is not an evolutionary process. The DNA in plants and animal

So it is required that we develop our attachment for Krsna. Then every moment you'll see Krsna. There is no need of asking anybody, "Can you show me Krsna? Can you show me God?" You will see automatically. Sevonmukhe hi jihvadau svayam eva sphuraty adah [Brs. 1.2.234]. You cannot ask Krsna, "Please come here. I'll see You," just like you ask your dog or your servant. Krsna is nobody's servant. Krsna is the master. He may like you; He may not like. Naham prakasah sarvasya yoga-maya-samavrtah [Bg.

     AS YEAR 2012 is coming to a close, I am reflecting on all the service rendered to Lord Krsna by the prison ministry, and I feel very grateful to all who have been involved in pleasing the Lord in this way.

            In preparing more excerpts from inmates’ letters to share with the devotee community, I had to go over the ones that haven’t been published yet. Although a majority of them are from letters I have received in the course of the year, reading them again was as refreshing and

The following essay is an analysis of the modern, western, atheistic cosmology.

There is a Controller

At night the stars come out, and overhead are 100 billion stars in our galaxy. Beyond them are 1 trillion galaxies, each with 100 billion stars, planets and other flying balls. That is a total of 10^23 stars planets, moons etc. There are many star clusters in the universe. Each one is a circular ball composed of billions upon billions of stars, each star has its own orbit. And in each star-clu

The top of Mount Meru,
Brahmapuri.

Figure 1 shows a map of the bhumandala planetary system. Krishna has made it a thing of beauty. The bhumandala is shaped like a lotus-flower. The different dvipas (lit. between two waters, two (dvi) waters (pah)) or islands with their mountains and trees are like the petals of the flower.

The Lokaloka Mountain forms the outermost and highest ring of petals. The top of Meru (which has a diameter of 32,000 yojanas) is 84,000 yojanas above the plane of the bhumandal

Did you know that your distance to hell is 100.000 yojanas and the distance to the spiritual planets 5.555.555.555.250.000.000 yojanas?
We use yojanas because Krishna created the universe using these units (See subheading 108 later; then we see that the universe is created). And it is the metric unit of the gods. The Vedas (and the Srimad bhagavatam) is a scripture for gods.
The descriptions and numbers in this text are of the subtle level of the universe, as perceived by mystics and godly being
