Arjuna was a devotee. He was working for Krsna so much, he was
sacrificing everything. He was prepared to kill his family members and
everything. Still, he never wanted anything, "Krsna, give me this."

Being Immortal

Being Immortal


Matter changes in six phases: birth, growth, maintenance, production of by-products, dwindling, and death. But the life within matter, the spirit soul, is eternal; it goes through no such changes. Life appears to be developing and decaying, but actually it is simply passing through each of these six phases until the material body can no longer be maintained. Then the old body dies, and the soul enters a new body. When our clothing is old and worn, we change it. Similarly, one day o

Real Awakening

Real Awakening

What is spiritual life? Complete freedom. And an eternal, blissful life full of knowledge. That is spiritual life—a life distinct from material life, which is based on the bodily concept. Spiritual life means an eternal, blissful life of knowledge, while material life means a non-permanent, miserable life full of ignorance.

The body is impermanent, and it is always full of miserable conditions. There is no blissfulness in the material world; we are always suffering some kind of dist

Twenty-five-year-old university graduate Phillip Scott had first come in contact with Krsna consciousness on receiving a Back to Godhead magazine on the streets of Melbourne in 1971.

One year later, "Scotty" travelled to Perth and met up with Vegavan at Western Australia's first ISKCON centre at 555 Fitzgerald Street in Kewdale. There he enjoyed prasadam and

Catuh-sloki Bhagavatam

 

2514848106?profile=original

Sri Uddhava’s actual life is the direct symbol of the catuh-sloki Bhagavatam enunciated first to Brahmaji by the Personality of Godhead[SB 2.9.33/34/35/36]. These four very great and important verses from Srimad-Bhagavatam are particularly taken out by the Mayavadi speculators, who construe a different purport to suit their impersonal view of monism.

When the Kids are Vegetarian


when+the+kids+are+vegetarian.jpg



Once Devotee Mataji visited her non Devotee mother along with her child who also was serious Devotee of Krishna.

They all three were at home. Elders were cooking and exchanging with talks. By the time they realized that child was missed. No words. No child. No sound.

-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Suddenly, screaming voice of a small kid was like a thunderbolt but inside the house.

Immediately, Grandmother and mother ran to the kitchen and found a child standing before the door open
