Once a sage was walking from one town to another town with a few of his followers. While they were traveling, they happened to pass a lake. They stopped there and sage told one of his disciples, "I am thirsty. Do get me some water from that lake there."
    
The disciple walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed that right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through the lake. As a result, the water

There was a small kingdom in which strangely enough all people where quite happy and very healthy. In
course of time both the ruler and ruled grew proud of this rare good fortune and claimed it to be a reward
of their personal righteousness. Since all of them were healthy, there was no physician in the kingdom.
One day, a physician came to its capital city and was happy to find that there was no other physician to

There was a hunter who came into the possession of a special bird dog. The dog was the only one of its kind, because it can walk on water.

One day he invited a friend to go hunting with him so that he could show off his prized possession. After some time, they shot a few ducks, which fell into the river. The  man ordered his dog to run and fetch the birds. The dog ran on water to fetch the birds.

The man was expecting a co

We have got so many duties. So long we are not fully surrendered to Krsna... It is not that this Krsna consciousness movement is to give shelter to some irresponsible man who does not carry the responsibilities of family life or brahmacari life. But that is now forgotten. Everything is topsy-turvied. So Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu says that krsna-bhakti, Krsna consciousness movement, may be offered even to the candala. Candala means the lowest of the human society, the dog-eaters. Candala. This is t

Ceasing sense enjoyment

Unless one is transcendentally situated, it is not possible to cease from sense enjoyment. The process of restriction from sense enjoyment by rules and regulations is something lik

Tota Gopinath Deity

The middle Deity is Tota Gopinatha, with black Radharani (on the left of Gopinatha) and a black Lalita (to the right of the Lord).

When Radharani is in intense separation of Krsna she takes the complexion of Krsna and when Krsna is in intense separation of  Radharani the He takes the complexion of Radharani.

When Krsna takes not only the complexion but also the mood then He is acknowledged as Caitanya Ma

Srila Jiva Gosvami explains the various types of bhakti. We shall briefly touch on the main three. The first is aropsiddha bhakti, perfection attained by offering the fruit of one’s karma in devotional service. When works are offered to the Lord, devotion is attributed to them, even though the activity itself is not devotional. This is called attributed devotion.

Krishna says that He provides for His devotees by giving them what they lack and preserving what they have. People are very fond of saying that God helps those who help themselves, but they do not understand that helping yourself means putting yourself under Krishna's protection. If one thinks, "Oh, I can help myself. I can protect myself," one is thinking foolishly. As long as my finger is attached to my body, it is use

So this is possible. If you become devotee of Krsna, then you can live with Krsna, even in this life. Even in this life. Because Krsna is omnipotent, if you are really devotee of Krsna, He will talk with you, He will dance with you, He will eat with you, everything.
