Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Matajis,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudev.
In order to progress in spiritual life, we must always be submissive to Guru and Krishna. It is not that we remain submissive until we get initiation and then behave as per our own whims. Inorder to show us how we should behave

Material happiness often takes the form of relieving distress.
Isn't human life meant for something more?

You can try and try – you can make allowances for contingencies and mix-ups, but there are still going to be errors. And when errors happen, forget a promise, meeting, or commitment; then someone is going to be hurt, upset, mad, or disappointed.
Rather than becoming upset, defensive, or guilty, maintain your bearings and remain compassionate. You should understand that there’s simply nothing you can do – other than your
When the share market has an upward swing the investors joyfully celebrate and when the market crashes the investors miserably laments. No investment can guarantee 100% return in this world. Even the most promising company itself does not have secure future then how can it guarantee a secure return. During the recent recession banking giants like Lehman brothers, Merril Lynch etc. collapsed. Insecurity and fear accompany our every endeavour.
However there is something to cheer about. Timeless Ved
So this is very natural. This temple worship is meant for that purpose. Actually, when we see the Deity, immediately our mind become Krsna conscious. At least, we think of Krsna: "Here is Krsna." So that is man-manah. Chanting also, chanting, that is krsna-manah, man-manah. In this way you become bhakta. Regularly chanting, you become bhakta. Without becoming bhakta, nobody can chant. So man-mana bhava mad-bhakto mad-yaji. And worship Deity. He has come very kindly to accept your service. You ju

Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Matajis,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudev.
We always say that devotional service means that we should be ready to do any type of menial service in order to attract the mercy of the Lord. Voluntary endeavour is the only way to attract the mercy of the Lord. In the corporate world if we

When Śrīla Prabhupāda asked for questions (after delivering a lecture in Hamburg, Germany), one devotee asked if it was possible to become Krishna conscious in this very lifetime. “It is possible in one second, provided you are serious,” Prabhupāda said. “It is not difficult. Bahūnām janmanām ante jnānavān mām prapadyate: ‘After many, many births, when one is intelligent, wise, fully grown in wisdom, he surrenders unto

Dear Swamiji:
Thank you very much for your kindness in sending me your long and interesting letter of January 30, together with the last issue of Back to Godhead. So far I have had a few discussions with members of your society here, but they were not entirely satisfactory from my point of view. But now I have your much more authoritative letter, whereby the discussion moves to a h
So mind is the basic principle of another form of body. Therefore our Krsna consciousness movement is training the mind how to remain Krsna conscious at the time of death, because Krsna says in the Bhagavad-gita, yam yam vapi smaran bhavam [Bg. 8.6]. Therefore in Bengali poetry there is a saying, bhajan kara sadhan kara mate janle haya,(?) means "You are doing everything in spiritual life, but everything will be examined at the time of death. How you have practiced your bhajana, sadhana, this wi

This human form of life is very rare to achieve. After going through 84 lakhs species of life and by the supervision of the Lord we get this human form and after getting the human form also, most of us spend the life without any knowledge of spirit soul.
The list is endless. Throughout the day and throughout our lives we are either busy understanding as “How things work in this world” and “How can it be utilized to fulfill the mundane requirements of our life”.
Do we ever bother to ask ‘Why’?
TEXT 31
Some may be born with extraordinary qualities whilst some may be too ordinary. Some may have magnetic persona while some may not attract the attention of others. Every individual possess certain qualities and do not posses certain other qualities. However one quality which is inherent in every living being irrespective of his caste, creed, religion, gender and wealth is his ability to love. Love is the innate quality of a soul.
Every soul has the ability to love and also be loved. Love makes us h
So we are not aware what is the aim of life. So Krsna is very kind. He therefore comes. He came just before the beginning of this Kali-yuga, the most fallen age, and left for us the Bhagavad-gita. And then, after Him, after His departure... It is said in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, "After departure of Krsna from this planet to His own abode, the principle of religion and knowledge, where it is kept?" So the answer is: "It is kept in the Srimad-Bhagavatam." Adhuna udita. So Krsna is nondifferent from
