Thought Of The Day

That is the ways of this material nature. The ways of material nature is that you cannot remain in comfort. That is not possible. By laws of nature... Tri-tapa-yatana, three kinds of miseries, adhyatmika, adhibhautika, adhidaivika, they must be there always.So even if we are situated in one kind of comfortable position, then another uncomfort will come and attack. That is called tri division. Adhyatmika, adhibhautika, adhidaivika. Or there is no cough, or there is no trouble, but you receive on

British Celebrities Get Prabhupada's Bhagavad Gita


2514863698?profile=original


I was fortunate to be invited to a function at which I accompanied my seniors Jai Nitai and Sachi Kisore Prabhus. The function was dedicated to a senior British lady named Jo Fillippou upon her being formally honored as a Member of the British Empire (something like Paul Mc Cartney's being knighted.) Somehow she knew our Jai Nitai Prabhu, so we were invited as well, but he didn't prepare a speech. Jai Nitai was formerly a major book distributo

Thought Of The Day

Therefore, spiritual education begins from this body. As Krsna says in the Bhagavad-gita, dehino 'smin yatha dehe [Bg. 2.13]. Asmin dehe, in this body there is the spiritual spark who is the proprietor of the body. This is the beginning of spiritual education.

So this Krsna consciousness movement means training people how to become tapasvi, tapasvi, who is undergoing tapasya, regulative, so that he may be cured from this permanent disease, birth, death, old age and disease.

Thought Of The Day

So the human life is meant for purification , By nature, by constitutional position, every living entity is as pure as God. But God does not become impure. We become impure. Therefore we are suffering, if we do not purify our existence, then we go on with this impure existence. Impure existence means transmigration of the soul from one body to another, and become subjected to birth, death, old age and disease. This is impurification. So they do not know that "Death is not my obligation. Because

Hare krsna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada


Sri Krishna Chaitanya was the pioneer of the movement of Nagar Sankeertan. He used to get himself immersed in the contemplation of the Lord while singing His glory and used to be oblivious of the external world.
Once he was conducting Nagar Sankeertan in Navadweep. Several leaders of the town too joined him in his bhajan. They were all ecstatically singing bhajans and walking along the streets. A thief also joined this

How the Law of Karma works

Hare krsna

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

The Sanskrit word Karma has gained mainstream acceptance today and found a place in the English dictionary. Karma as a philosophical principle, however, is little understood. Simply put, the law of karma states that every action we perform has a reaction. In the Biblical tradition this is phrased as "As you sow, so shall you reap."

Is the Law of Karma Scientific?

Yes and no. Yes in the sense that the law of karma is, like

Thought Of The Day

So Krsna, when instructs from within the heart, He is called caitya-guru. And that caitya-guru is expanded by the process, personal presentation of spiritual master. So both ways He is helping us. Krsna is so kind. Guru-krsna-krpa. Krsna is helping from within, but sometimes we are so dull, naturally, that we cannot understand. Therefore He sends His representative to instruct externally. So He is helping internally and externally. There is no difference between the internal and external instruc

Life After Death

Life is the combination of five,

sky, earth, air,water, and fire,

God lended me these for coming to earth,

make a reach to everyone's heart.

I learned to be as vast as sky,

as fluent as air, as booming as fire,

continuous as flowing water,retaining great heart as earth,

to get hold on my worldly desire.

I lived my life ,to the death i arrived,

My lord asked me about his gratitudes and regard of life .

He questned me about his gift,

the gifts he lended me to be live.

I told him o lord,

To love Krsna cent percent.

Posted on March 28, 2012
Filed under BVKS Sanga

To love Krsna means you have no more material desire. The percentage you are
lacking Krsna love, the percentage material desires are there. Ye yatha mam
prapadyante [Bg. 4.11]. If you love Krsna ten percent, then ninety percent
material desire. And if you love Krsna ninety percent, ten percent material
desire. And if you love Krsna cent percent there is no material desire. This
is the way. So if you love Krsna twenty-four hours, cent percent, simply
