The Colors In The Rainbow

Hare krsna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel. All claimed that they were the best. The most
important. The most useful. The most beautiful. The favorite.
Green said:
"Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. I was chosen for grass, trees and
leaves. Without me, all animals would die. Look over the countryside and you will see that I am in the
majority."

Blue interrupted:

Power of Compassion

Hare krsna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

 Today we came across a following nice instructive quote on how to be happy. "If we want others to be happy, we should practise compassion. If we want to be happy, we should  practise compassion." Most of the time, we fail to understand others' pain and so we become careless in our dealings with others. Compassion means, 'your pain in my heart'. Vaishnavas are described as 'para duhkha duhkhi'. When we are compassionate

For the past 4 months devotees from ISKCON Vrindavan have been holding regular Sunday feast programs in Karhagarh (prison house) of Kamsa, where Vasudev and Devaki were imprisoned.  The temple popularly known by locals as Prachin Janambhumi (very old birthplace of Lord Krishna) houses the beautiful deities of Vasudev, Devaki and Keshav Dev Ji (baby Krishna with four arms).  Prachin Janambhumi is west of Pota

"Everybody, together now. A little louder, with your heart."

Srila Rupa Goswami glorifies the holy names of Krishna:

"I do not know how much nectar the two syllables 'Krish-na' have produced. When the holy name of Krishna is chanted, it appears to dance within the mouth. We then desire many, many mouths. When that name enters the holes of the ears, we desire many millions of ears. And when the holy name d

"Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura Prabhupada immediately took up the land. He continued that 'There is no need of establishing many temples. Better we publish some books.' He said like that.

"He said that 'We started our this Gaudiya Matha in Ultadanga. The rent was very small, and if we could gather two to two-hundred-fifty rupees, it was very nice, going on. But since this J. V. Datta has given us this stone, marble stone thakurbari, our competition between the disciples has increas

Thought Of The Day

The conception of one world state can only be fulfilled if we can follow the infallible authority. An imperfect human being cannot create an ideology acceptable to everyone. Only the perfect and the infallible can create a program which is applicable at every place and can be followed by all in the world. It is the person who rules, and not the impersonal government. If the person is perfect, the government is perfect. If the person is a fool, the government is a fool's paradise. That is the law

निम्नलिखित आध्यात्मिक गुरू महाविष्णु गोस्वामी महाराज के द्वारा साउथ अफ्रीका मे दिए गए प्रवचन का अंश है।

"अपने कर्तव्यों से भागने की आवश्यकता नहीं है, अपितु उनके प्रति जागरूक होने की आवश्यकता है। स्थिति से भागने की नहीं अपितु आप जैसी भी स्थिति में हैं उसमें जागरुक होने की आवश्यकता है। और हमें यह पता होना चाहिए कि स्थितियाँ चाहे वे जैसी भी हों - अच्छी या बुरी - केवल क

In this month the sun moves into Mesha rasi (Aries), and the new year begins according to many calanders.

Keshava Vrata starts; for one month one should control the senses, sleep on the earth, bath twice daily in a river, worship the Lord and give cloth, sugar, sesame, rice, and gold to the brahmanas. If one worships Madhsudana in this month one gains the benefits of one years worship.

While Keshava Vrata lasts one may hang a pot with a hole in it, fill it with water and drip water over Tulas

Whoever rises early in the morning and remembers Lord Krishna‘s victory in His battle with Lord Siva will never experience defeat.

Sukadeva Gosvami said: O descendant of Bharata, the relatives of Aniruddha, not seeing Him return, continued to lament as the four rainy months passed.

After hearing from Narada the news of Aniruddha‘s deeds and His capture, the Vrishnis, who worshiped Lord Krishna as their personal Deity, wen

Poem on Lord Krishna!!

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

I came accross the following poem by complete chance - absolutely beautiful!


From an early age, Lord Krishna stole butter

He broke earthen pots with a flourish
For the Lord, there was no need of cup or dish

The village of Gokul was surrounded by meadows
Around Mount Govardhan and its shadows
The Yamuna swept past in slow undulation
The pastures green with verdant vegetation

The cows and c
