Krishna is the absolute truth. His beauty is also absolute and eternal. His form is the vessel of pure spiritual energy- eternity, knowledge and bliss and it is therefore beautiful through and through. Material beauty offers momentary pleasure to the sense while Krishna's spiritual beauty touches the very soul of the living being, thrilling him with a pleasure so wonderful that once having relished it he can never give it up. Srila Rupa Gosvami has therefore advised,

Once upon a time Princess Beauty went around the universe to search for a suitable groom, holding a flower garland in her hand. She travelled through the entire universe, but she did not find a suitable husband.  With a heart filled with sorrow, she returned to Earth.  Here, she stepped into Vrindâvan. Beauty was not aware, that, now the infinitely beautiful and infinitely sweet Sri Govinda had manifested Himself in Sri Vrindâvan. Beauty thought – “I could not find a suitable groom anywhere in t

A devotee always accepts his distress as minimized by Gods Mercy; although he would have to suffer many more times the suffering. Any one who accepts this philosophy of Gods Mercy in suffering conditions, and still makes progress in Krishna Consciousness, it is said that he is sure to go back to Home, Back to Godhead.

Hare Krsna,

It's requested of everyone to visit the above given link and to make this movement of world peace aware to one and all. It's high time we brothers and sisters join together to create a world which is huger free and peaceful.

The most essential quality necessary for achieving spiritual perfection is humility. Without humility, no matter how much else one may accomplish in the service of the Lord, one will be blocked by his false pride from spiritual perfection. The living being will not be released from his entanglement within the three modes of material nature and will thus remain in the cycle of birth and death.  Therefore we must learn from the spiritual master what is the real meaning of humility.

Question: Can God Be Proven Rationally? -

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this age, when science has progressed so much in shedding light on the darker areas of ignorance, everything can now be explained in rational terms. How about God? Is it possible to prove that He is a fact? Or should we take science as our God? Since we have grown up in the age of science, we need miracles that are of scientific nature. Do you think God is unaware of that?

Srimad Bhagavatam verse 4.12.22, (Class at Mayapur)

Maharaj recites the verse:
Tam Krishna-padabhinivishta chetasam
Baddhanjalim prashraya namra kandharam
Sunanda-nadau upasrutya sasmitam
Pratyuchatuh pushkaranabha sammatau

Translation: Dhruva Maharaj was always absorbed in thinking of the lotus feet of Lord Krishna. His heart was full with Krishna. When the two confidential servants of the Supreme Lord, who were named Nanda and Sunanda, approached him, smiling happily, Dhruva stood with folded hands,

Hare Krishna Devotees

I am writing this blog to let devotee community know about Krishna Conscious activities going in Ujjain and Indore cities.

Indore is a Tier-2 City of India also know as business capital of M.P. State. While Ujjain is a ancient holy tier - 3 city. Ujjain is famous among devotees since here Lord Krishna took stayed in Gurukul of Sandipani Muni.

Both cities are near to each other and have beautiful ISKCON temples.

People in general are very pious in state and atmospheric for sprea

I have been a devotee for going on 10 years.  My family is small, and we live in the city.  There are not a lot of opportunities for me to learn how to be the most devout that I can be and, in truth, one of my biggest obstacles was my Ekadasi-phobia.  I was just terrified that I would ruin it somehow by using a spice I shouldn't, or that I would forget entirely in the morning and go for my cup of tea.  

Terrible, right?  10 years & I have not yet observed Ekadasi.  I looked at the beautiful pictu

Can i count you amongst those who in life had happiness forever?

Can i count you amongst those in whose life happiness never abated by time?

Can i count you amongst those upon whom misery never touched?

Can i count you amongst those for whom pain and agony was never a part of  life?

Can i count you amongst those for whom life was always a bed of rose petals?

I am sure your answer would be in the negative. Never mind. There exists no such people who can answer positively to these introspective questio

The goal of the Bhagavatam is to glorify Krishna. This is important
because Krishna is a special form of the Supreme Lord. That is why in
the list of avatars given by Suta Goswami, he says Krsnas tu bhagavan
svayam - the original Supreme Personality of Godhead is Krishna.

We may ask that why is Krishna superior to other forms of God because
God is equal. Just like the example of a moon. The moon is one but
sometimes its half moon, small moon (punima, amavasya etc) similarly
the Lord will manifest a cer

Detecting life source

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 small to see. Where is such seeing power?
