Mercy at every step

It was raining, and I did not have much time to distribute books but Krishna had managed to let a few books go out……

I got my books ready, seeing everybody so busy going/coming and shopping. My mind told me, "Who is going to take a book in this hurry?"

Still my desire was strong, and I approached a gentleman exiting a store.

"Excuse me sir, did you see this book today?"

"No, and I am not interested.

"Why?" I replied. "These books are such treasures. They tell you about the soul."

Sound Advice in Difficult Times

"Oh, this is too unsettling I just can't stand the pressure anymore." S/He stood in the room and tried to calm down the mind. But it was in vain! Sounds familiar?!

We often become overwhelmed by difficult or disturbing situations and feel that our life is getting out of hand.

At that time, don't despair.

In a lecture in India Shrila Prabhupada gave the remedy: Just pause for some time - sit down and chant.

Everyone is misguided, everyone is acting in this world under the bodily concept of life. And they are very very much unhappy on account of this. Because as soon as one understands that "I am not this body," he immediately becomes Brahma-bhutah prasannatma. Prasannatma means, what do you mean by prasannatma? Na socati na kanksati [Bg. 18.54]. No more material desire. That is brahma-bhutah. Everyone is trying for material sense gratification -- the animals, the beasts, the birds, and the human be

When someone acts in a way that seems strange to you, rather than reacting in your usual way, such as, “I can’t believe they would do that,” instead say something to yourself like “I see, that must be the way she sees things in her world. Very interesting.”

When you are genuinely curious about the way someone reacts or the way they feel about something, it’s unlikely that you will be annoyed.

We Krishna-bhaktas are the luckiest  in this world. Thanks to the direct involvement of Bhagavan Sri Krishna Himself, we are able to be in touch with Him . Our Bhakti-offerings are gladly accepted by Bhagavan . 

Such a direct interaction with God is not possible in any other religious path. Even in Hinduism, there is lot of confusion .

When a Person surrenders himself to Sri Krishna , Bhagavan blesses Him with direct acce

The Inhabitants of the earth benefit from a cosmic fight for immortal nectar.

THE LORD'S pastime of protecting the devas (demigods) from the asuras (demons) by producing nectar from the ocean of milk is described in detail in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, Canto 8, chapters 5 through 11.

Millions of years ago, the sage Durvasa visited the capital of Indra's kingdom in the heavenly planets. While Durvasa Muni was passing on the road, he saw Indra on the back of his elephant and was pleased to offer Indra a

In relation to the Supreme Lord, all beings are to be respected.  Therefore a devotee refers to others as "Prabhu," meaning "My dear sir, my dear lord." Submissiveness is a qualification for a devotee of the Lord.  Devotees are kind and obedient, and they have all good qualifications.  In conclusion, if one become a devotee of the Lord, all good qualifications will automatically develop.  By nature, the living entity is perfect, but due to the contamination of lust, he becomes vicious.  That whi

Why we are getting different bodies? Because we have got different tendency for sense gratification. Indriya, aindriyat. This is the disease, material disease. Everyone has got tendency for sense gratification, but not all of them of the same type. They have got different types. So our material bondage means these different types of sense gratification. Therefore we have to stop this. We have to be detestful from this sense gratification. Then our spiritual life will begin. That is possible by b

The process of Bhakti-yoga is very simple ; One can devote himself in his occupation and engage at the same time in chanting the holy names of Krishna – The holy names of Krishna and Krishna Himself are non-different . Therefore, when a devotee chants Krishna 's names, Bhagavan's  internal potency is dancing on the tongue of the devotee. This process is  recommended in the Bhagavad-gita and in other Vedic literatures. V

Scientists Finally Conclude Nonhuman Animals Are Conscious Beings

From Psychology Today:

Every now and again I receive an email message I ignore after reading the subject line. I know I'm not alone in following this rule of thumb, but today I broke down and opened a message the subject line of which read "Scientists Declare: Nonhuman Animals Are Conscious". I honestly thought it was a joke, likely from one of my favorite newspapers, The Onion. However, it wasn't.

Decoration of the Dead Body

In India, the lower class men, during their life, will dress very wretchedly and not spend money. But when some of their relatives die, they will purchase some velvet and cover the body and very nicely decorate, and with band party they'll take, lead the dead body. They make lips of the dead body very smiling. The body is taken in procession. So it may be very much pleasing to the relatives that the dead body's decorated. So shastra says that what is the meaning of thi
