Along with Holi, which fills our life with various shades of colour, today is also the auspicious day of Gaura Purnima. Gaura Purnima is the birth anniversary of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Sri Chiatanya Mahaprabhu appeared in this world around 500 years ago in Mayapur, West Bengal. Kali – yuga, the present age in which we are living, is widely known to be filled with inauspicious phenomenon but very few know that this age has one great benediction. In kali – yuga water of the rivers may dry but

We are most fallen. We don’t even have the power to control our senses. But if we surrender to Krishna; if we fall at the feet of Krishna and call out His holy name offenselessly, call out the holy name of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu; then He delivers us. Lord Chaitanya is all-powerful. He is patita pavana. He can give the most degraded, the highest gift of prema bha

So our lusty desires, sense gratification, cannot be satisfied even throughout the whole life. The account is being given of the whole life, hundred years. So out of hundred years, fifty years wasted by sleeping, twenty years wasted by playing like boy and young man, and twenty years as old man, diseased, invalidated, and balance ten years... Because ninety years he has been so much attached to materialistic way of life, naturally the balance ten years, sesam, he cannot utilize in any other way.

So this chanting of Hare Krsna is so important that you can think always that "Death is coming. Death is at my door. Let me finish my chanting. Let me finish my chanting." Always you should think like that, that "Death is already coming, so let me chant." So this is called bhagavata-dharma, and Krsna consciousness movement means bhagavata-dharma.

of everything, they would not be present in the material world.
THE WORD Govinda refers to one who gives pleasure to the cows and the senses. There are many incarnations of Godhead, but Govinda [Krsna] is the adi-purusa, or the original person. As such He is not technically an incarnation

Our Ukrainian team traveling around Bangladesh returned to Dhaka on the 16th of November - just in time for Srila Prabhupada’s disappearance day celebration…..
Swamibag temple area had been converted into a huge Pandal tent. HH Jayapataka Swami was there, and devotees had come from all around Bangladesh to get his association. As in previous years he initiated around two thousand devotees - something which requires quite some coordination and organisation…..!

In May 2012, a Chaplain from El-Paso, Texas, Steven Cottingham, emailed me in the hope of getting some books for the inmates he served. He said,
“My name is Steven. I serve in 5 jails, 3 federal prisons, and 2 state prisons and there are people asking for books in each of these institutions. What I do is place books in each institution’s Religious Services library, so it is cost-effective that way. Do you have books we could have?”
Of course I was very happy to
Suffering is Reduced for Krishna's Devotees
Srila Prabhupada:
"Sometimes it so happens that we have to suffer for our past sinful activities. But because we have taken to Krishna Consciousness and serving Krishna, we should know that any suffering we have to bear have been far reduced by the mercy of the Lord. Suffering must be there so long as we are conditioned in this material world, but for the devotees the suffering is minimized compared to that of the nondevotees. We have to tolerate any di
