Everything is product of Krsna, energy. So we are not worshiping stone. We are worshiping Krsna in a form which is tangible for us, that's all. Not that Krsna is stone. Krsna is stone also, because stone is nothing but Krsna's energy. So in this way you should understand what is Krsna consciousness. Don't remain foolish Perfect knowledge. Perfect knowledge. Kasmin tu bhagavo vijnate sarvam idam vijnatam bhavati. Simply if you understand Krsna, everything will be known to you. And if you actually

The spiritual master cannot accept service from a disciple without awarding him spiritual instruction. That is the reciprocation of love and duty. (Purport to Bhag. 3.23.52)
A disciple has the right to ask the guru about any confidential service, and it is the duty of the guru to explain these confidential matters to his disciple. (Purport to Bhag. 10.12.43)

It is nice that you are preaching during your stay in the jail, but you should know that such practices like stealing are against the principles of Krishna Consciousness. I always want that my students should be very ideal in character and not discredit our society. Actually, one who is in Krishna Consciousness automatically develops all of the good qualities that ar
The Supreme Lord has manifold energies. It is not that he comes to this material world to perform activities. It is stated in the Vedas that the Supreme Lord has nothing to do. In Bhagavad-gita Sri Krsna also says:
Na me parthasti kartavyam
trisu lokesu kincana
nanavaptam avaptavyam
varta eva ca karmani
"O son of Prtha, there is no work prescribed for Me within all the three planetary systems. Nor am I in want of anything, nor have I need to obtain anything-and yet I am engaged in work." (Bg. 3
Once a person comes into contact with any one of the above-mentioned energies of the Lord through the proper channel of devotional service, the door of perfection is immediately opened. In the Bhagavad-gita the Lord has explained such contact in the following words. ‘Endeavors in devotional service are never baffled, nor is there failure. A slight beginning of such activities is sufficient even to deliver a person from the great ocean of material fears.' (Bg. 2.40) As a highly potent drug inject

In his Sri Caitanya Siksamrta Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura gives the following summary of the demons Krsna killed in His Vrndavana pastimes and the anarthas they represent. (Of course we should note that not in all cases is Lord Krsna dealing with demons as such, like in the pastime of the Brahma-vimohana-lila, and the lifting of Govardhana Hill, although He is always dealing with people who have antagonistic mentalities.)

For lecturing, any one of our members can speak. Simply one has to memorize the purports and then speak in one's own language. For anyone who chants and follows the rules and regulations, where is the anxiety? You are an old, experienced devotee, so you behave like this and teach her to do so wherever you may stay. (Letter to Revatinandana Swami. 7 November 1975.)

The dirty things are that "I am a material body; I am American; I am Indian; I am Hindu; I am Muslim; I am this; I am that." These are all different types of covering of the soul. The uncovered soul is fully conscious that "I am eternal servant of God." That's all. One has no other identification. That is called mukti. When one comes to the understanding that "I am eternal servant of Krsna, God, and my only business is to serve Him," that is called mukti. Mukti does not mean that you will have a

The present age is very tough for every one . So many problems all around . People do not have ethics. Selfishness, greed and cruelty are prevailing everywhere .
Our great Rishis and their Godfather Bhagavan Sri Krishna Himself have foreseen this long back .Their recommendation was to adhere to *Bhakti-Yoga* . For this purpose, the Rishis have established many Vedic temples in BhArath ( India). Using the prescribed *Upas

The soulful sankirtan of Shri Vishnujana Maharaja illuminated the streets of San Francisco and Los Angeles , and then across the States, from the earliest days of Krishna consciousness. Today his uplifting bhajans and melodious kirtans still echo in the halls of ISKCON centers around the world. There was never a more faithful servant of Shrila Prabhupada, and the fortunate Vaishnavas who serve

Rama and Mahaprabhu
With Lord Rama there is prema, there is love, but the highest love as manifest by thegopis is not there. Hanuman had no such prema. It is quite absent between Lord Rama and his associates. Rama is maryada-purusottama — he very strictly followed Vedic etiquette. He refused to accept the munis of Dandakaranya. When they requested that he accept them as his wives, Lord Rama r

How is he to be worshiped? Mahaprabhu says, ramya kacid-upasana vrajavadhu-vargena ya kalpita — He is to be worshiped with pure love in the mood of the damsels of Vrajabhumi. That is the best process of worship. That is Mahaprabhu's teaching and Mahaprabhu's opinion. The gopis only see that kisora form of Krishna, ten- to twelveyear- old Krishna, gopa-vesa, nata-vara
Sravanam kirtanam-by chanting and hearing one can come to understand Krsna. And upon understanding Krsna, one can, at the moment of death, go immediately to HIs abode in the spiritual world. This spiritual world is described thus in Bhagavad-gita.

"That abode of Mine is not illumined by the sun or moon, nor by electricity. One who reaches it never returns to this material world." (Bg. 15.6)

Hell-bent to go to Hell
Sometimes people argue that hell does not exist and that there is no track of whatever sins we are doing.
But 3rd Canto 30th Chapter of Srimad Bhagavatam clearly explains the existence of hell, how far it is from earth, how the living entity travels after he leaves his body, what are the various types of punishments he undergoes there. Verses 25 through 27 in particular give us a sample glimpse of the various kind of punishment the living entity has to undergo if he leads a
