So all this material scientific knowledge, they are simply interested with this body. But spiritual knowledge begins when you actually take seriously what Bhagavad-gita says or Srimad-Bhagavatam says or what the Vedas says. Vedas says everything, both the material and the spiritual. But for human being we are not only, we should not only be interested with the material science, but we should be interested... That is our main interest. Athato brahma jijnasa. Material science is going on. But you
Krishna takes care of all our necessities. He provides food to an insignificant ant and also to a huge elephant. But most often when we approach him we ask for several material things. We think that Krishna is not aware of our necessities. We consider Krishna to be our order supplier and demand several things from him - like good marks, high paying job, palatial bungalow, fancy car, beautiful spouse and so on.
Instead of asking something material we should pray to Krishna to give us intelligence

"Although I am unborn and My transcendental body never deteriorates, and although I am the Lord of all- sentient beings, I still appear in every millennium in My original, transcendental form." [Bhagavad-gita 4.6]
Krsna is unborn, and we are also unborn, but the difference is that unlike the Lord we have been entangled in a materia

This story still amazes me. It happened in England in 1969, when we were just opening the London temple (in Bloomsbury, near the British Museum). Śrīla Prabhupāda had come, and he was talking with the more experienced devotees and confirming their projects. “Yes,” he would say—”do it very nicely,” and “Very good—make it first class.” For instance, Mukunda was to continue his efforts in public relations and another devote

You all must be wondering that instead of discussing about brahmacharya why we have taken of the discussion of marriage and Grihasta. The reason being it is the Grihastas who sustain the other three orders that is Brhmacharya , Vanaprasta and sanyasa. Today in the world we hardly get to see a QUALIFIED Bramacharya, Vanaprasta or a Sannyasi. Mostly we com across cheaters and the cheated. How one can make spiritual progre

The great mistake of modern civilization is to encroach upon others' property as though it were one's own and thereby create an unnecessary disturbance of the laws of nature. These laws are very strong. No living entity can violate them. Only one who is Krishna conscious can easily overcome the stringent laws of nature and thus become happy and peaceful in the world.

Is Religion different from Spirituality?
Answer by Radhanath Swami: If we try to understand the actual meaning of religion, we will find that there is no difference. But if we view the way religion is often followed in the world today, there is a big difference. The word religion comes from the Greek word religio, which means ‘to bind back’ or ‘to reconnect’—to reconnect our hearts, our consciousness, with God. The word Yoga means exactly the same—to reunite the atma with the Paramatma, to reconn

Pradyumna: What is that type of pleasure that is material pleasure, that a person feels engaged in material pursuit. He feel some kind of pleasure. It's not very much pleasure, but it's some pleasure. What is that pleasure made of? Because if he is enjoying sense gratification...
Prabhupāda: That is pleasure. That is material pleasure. Material pleasure means sex pleasure. That's all. The end of material pleasure, the topmost material pleasure, is sex pleasure. So all these materialists, they are

Pradyumna: "...by the conditioned soul. Thus God is all-good, and God is all-merciful. Antah pravistah sasta jananam. The living entity forgets as soon as he quits his present body, but he begins his work again, initiated by the Supreme Lord. Although he forgets, the Lord gives him the intelligence to renew his work where he ended his last life. So not only does the living entity enjoy or suffer in this world according to the dictation from the Supreme Lord situated locally in the heart, but he
Krsna said that "The living entities, they are My part and parcel. They are as good as I am." But because the part and parcel of gold is also gold... It is nothing else. It may be small gold, but it is gold. Similarly, we may be very small fragmental part of the Supreme Person, Brahman, but we are Brahman. This is Brahman. Aham brahmasmi. This is Brahman realization. It is not very difficult. If you simply understand that "I am part and parcel of Krsna," that is Brahma-jnana. Brahma-bhutah prasa
The Story of Isaac Newton
There is a wonderful incident in the life of Sir Isaac Newton that goes to show how he was a strong believer of God. Newton had a small-scale model of the solar system, which, on completion, was installed on a large table in his home. The artisan had done a fine job, simulating not only the various sizes of planets and their relative proximity, but also constructing the model in such a manner that everything rotated and orbited when a crank was turned.
