So here the Dharmaraja is lamenting, "On account of absence of Krsna, our real business, nirvana, is being delayed. Therefore, are you lamenting, mother?" So Krsna is so kind that although He's not present at the present moment, still, in the form of His holy name, He's present. You can take still advantage of Krsna's name by chanting this Hare Krsna mantra. You can take. Don't think that when you chant "Krsna," this name Krsna is different from the Krsna person. No. They are the same. Nama cint

There is a notion around in India and outside which Indologists created along with the support of half-educated pseudo-Impersonalists that Veda means four vedas -Rig,sama,yayur,Atharava and rest are Mythology. It is because of their lack of knowledge of Vedas and for their demoniac intention to prove their one-sided purpose to cheat people.
People have to know what Veda is and what is the difference between this 4 vedas mentioned above and Itihas, puranad, which included Bhagavat Gita, Srimad Bha

When he(Srila Prabhupada) was going to America, on the journey he expressed his feeling to play with Krishna in sakhya-rasa: kata bane chutachuti bane khai lutaputi sei din kabe habe mor, “Running and frolicking in the many forests of Vraja, I will roll on the ground in spiritual ecstasy. O when will that day be mine?” This was his “Prayer to the Lotus Feet of Krishna.” When he was passing through the Atlantic, he gave vent to feelings that may be the salient points

our negative and insecure thinking can spiral out of control. Have you ever noticed how uptight you feel when you’re caught up in your thinking? And, to top it off, the more absorbed you get in the detailsof whatever is upsetting you, the worse you feel. One thought leads to another, and yet another, until at some point, you become incredibly agitated.
Needless to say, it’s impossible to feel peaceful with your head full

Once upon a time, there lived a man named as kamsingh. Although he was capable of working and earning his livelihood, he would beg. People would pity him and give him money. Gradually it became his habit. Gradually he become so lazy that his sole occupation was to eat and sleep and do no work. He become so lazy that he would not even clean his house.
Gradually familiar people started to ignore him and not give him money.
Disguised as a girl learned in astrology, mantras, yoga, and Tantras, Krishna enjoyed the following conversation pastime:
Radha: O all-knowing girl, what is the most blissful place in the three worlds?
Krishna-disguised-as-a-learned-girl: Krishna's land of Vraja.
Radha: In this world what is the best activity to perform for one's livelihood?
Disguised Krishna: Singing songs about Krishna
Radha: What activity brings the most auspicious result?
Disguised Krishna: The desire to attain Krishna.

The happiest person on earth isn't always happy. In fact, the happiest people all have their fair share of low moods, problems and disappointments. Often the difference between a person who is happy and someone who is unhappy is not how often they get low, or even how low they drop, but instead, it's what they do with their low moods.
Many people take their low moods very seriously and try to figure out and analyze what

If you inject just one grain of deadly poison into someone, he immediately dies. No one can see the poison or how it acts. But the poison is acting nevertheless. In the same way, the Vedas say that because the minute particle called the soul is within the body, the whole body is working nicely. According to the Vedas, the measurement of the soul within the body is one ten-thousandth part of the tip of a hair. It is too

There is a story of about a sea captain who in his retirement skippered a boat taking day-trippers to Shetland Islands. On one trip, the boat was full of young people.
They laughed at the old captain when they saw him say a prayer before sailing out, because the day was fine and the sea was calm.
However they weren't long at sea when a storm suddenly blew up and the boat began to pitch violently. The terrified passenger

The Bhagavad-gita says that out of many thousands of human beings, one may try to make perfection of his life. Man is an animal, but he has one special prerogative, rational thought. What is that rational thought? Reasoning power, argument. Now, reasoning power is there in dogs and cats as well. Suppose a dog comes up to you; if you say, "Hut!" he'll understand. The dog will understand that you don't want him. So, he ha

So the sage came to the village, and a crowd gathered around him, for such a man was a rare sight. One woman brought the sick child to him, and he said a prayer over her.
