Thought Of The Day

So spiritual life means anxiety-less. This is the difference between material life and spiritual life. Brahma-bhutah prasannatma [Bg. 18.54], in the Bhagavad-gita it is described what is spiritual life. As soon as you are identified with the Absolute Truth, Brahman, then symptoms will be prasannatma, jubilation: "Oh, I do not belong to this material world. I belong to the spiritual world. I am part and parcel of Krsna. Why should I suffer so many things?" That is jubilation. Brahma-bhutah prasan

What is the Age of Kali?

In the Age of Kali, the Earth thus becomes crowded with a corrupt population, whoever among any of the social classes shows himself to be the strongest will gain political power.”

This zine isn’t for people who feel modern life couldn’t be better. Such people like to be controlled more or less by the media’s projection of the goal of life and attempts made by corporations to promote bodily consciousness.

This is a zine for people who, not only want something more like a change of politics, but who

It is also found in Garuda Purana, very interesting, that Lord Shiva was approached by all the Devas, that there was a demon called Andhaka, that they had to destroy him.

So then he took from all the demigods, he took energy, and he made a whole army of celestial energies, with destructive power called...they were called the Matri Danas, the mothers!

But actually they were destructive. Instead of going after the demon, they started to go after the ordinary citizens; They were devouring everything,

Nrsimha Nectar 03: Different Kalpa 1

In the Padma Purana it mentions that another kalpa, Hiranyakashipu asked, "I can't be killed by a man, by animal, by deva, not by anything dead or alive", but he did'nt mention "in our out". Like in this lila it is not 'inside or outside', but in that lila he didn't mention that. So that's...didn't have to be killed in the door-way. So like that some little differences are there in each of the pastimes.

So Hiranyakashipu told Prahalad that, "I'm giving you till 6'oclock, until sundown!" Like in A

Glories of Narashinga Dev

Lord Nrsimha is so exalted that even His nails are glorified by the Vaishnava acharyas! In the Sudarsana-sata-nama stotra of the Sri Vaishnava sampradaya, it is said that Lord Narayana's Sudarshana Chakra descended as the tusk of Varaha, the axe of Parasurama, and the nails of Nrsimha. In this way, the nails of Nrsimha accompany the Lord in His various avatars. Sri Madhavacharya worships the power of Lord Nrsimha's nails in his Nakha-Stuti.

Nrsimha Nectar 01: Glorious Prahalad!

In the Padma Purana, it mentions that Prahalad, Hiranyakashipu, Nrsingadev, they appear many times. It's not only this one time. At least 3 different...2 different incarnations in other days of Brahma are described in the Padma Purana.

One of those times he (Hiranyakashipu) worshiped Shiva and got the blessing. Another time he worshiped Brahma again. When he was worshiping Shiva and he wanted Prahalad to admit that he was supreme, then he said that, "Well, ok if you don't want to admit I'm suprem

And He entered into the stadium..whatever you call it, I don't know...air conditioned facility! And He was flying in the back, in a gigantic form.

And Hiranyakashipu says, "What is this?", calls his air-force commander, "Tell this, whatever He is, we don't allow any beasts into our assembly here

Nrsimha Nectar 05: Different Kalpa 3

The fight (between Nringadev and Hiranyakashipu) was fairly similar, catching...releasing...flying in the air, fighting with each other. When it was the right time, then Nrsingadev grabbed Hiranyakashipu like a big bug. But this time he sat on his throne, took him and bifurcated him into two...took out the intestine and everything.

And in that lila, it is said that Lakshmidevi could approach (Nringadev). In the Bhagavatam lila He was too angry, even She couldn't approach. But in this one She coul
