Poem on Lord Krishna!!

Hare krsna

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
In Gokul, he always did create a flutter
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

Venue: Vrindavan, 31/8/2010 Hare Krsna! Guar Haribol! Sri Krsna Balarama ki jaya!

So glorification of the Krsna, I did not know the topic, I thought it was birth of Krishna.  Makes no difference.  Radha Govind Maharaj is also doing, Radha Govind Maharaj is also glorifying Krishna. And I am sure devotees all over the world are glorifying Krishna. How many devotees must be talking about Krishna right now? Any guess? Anantakoti! When Anantsesa was asked to glorify Krishna, Anantsesa! So he asked how

Thought Of The Day

The first spiritual instruction is, one must be convinced thoroughly,that he is not this body. "I am not this body. Aham brahmasmi." This realization, "I am spirit soul. I am part and parcel of the Supreme Brahman." Krsna is the Supreme Brahman, Krsna says, "All the living entities, they are My part and parcels.

I was very fortunate to have a long and intimate association with His
Holiness Jayapataka Swami Maharaja since I joined ISKCON. Undoubtedly he is
one of the most exemplary leaders of ISKCON today. With the sincerity he is
serving Srila Prabhupada is extremely praiseworthy. As a matter of fact ever
since he met Srila Prabhupda he offered himself completely to his service
and the way he is serving him till today is a wond

Take both praise and criticism evenly

Hare krsna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada


It’s great to get praise, but I seldom get overly excited about it and jump up and down shouting enthusiastically.When you receive the opposite – negative criticism – you can often observe it calmly without too much wild, negative emotions blocking the way. And you can often appreciate that piece of criticism too (if there is something to learn from it). 

Basically this mindset is about not caring too much about what oth

Venue: Pune Destinations, places all over India, what brings us together here is Krishna, we never think of that, what is bringing us together is, who is he?  What is that?  You may say that Radheshyam has brought us together, or you IYF leader made such arrangement. But that person is just a secondary cause or intermediate cause, the cause of all cause is Shri Krishna “sarva karana karanam”. I do not see any other reason for us being here today, but Krishna. This is the spirit of Bharat Varsha,

Thought Of The Day

Krsna is always ready to help us, provided we are also ready to cooperate with Him. If we cooperate with Him, what Krsna desires, if we want to do little, immediately Krsna will help you. If you work one percent, Krsna will help you ten percent. Again, if you work one percent, Krsna will help you another ten percent. But the cent percent credit you get, by the help of Krsna. Krsna gives you intelligence.

Even though man has studied the heavens for thousands of years, we still know very little about the Universe we live in. And as we continue to learn more, we are consistently amazed, and sometimes confused, by what we learn. Here is a collection of amazing, interesting, and strange astronomy facts, in no particular order.
 

  • Scientists believe that we can only see about 5% of the matter in the Universe. The rest is made up of invisible matter (called Dark Matter) and a mysterious form of energy

Teachings of the Vedas

[Delivered as a lecture by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupäda on October 6, 1969, at Conway Hall, London, England].

Veda means knowledge. Any knowledge you accept is veda, for the teachings of the Vedas are the original knowledge. In the conditioned state, our knowledge is subjected to many
