Question: How to Inculcate Love of God in my Child?

I would like to inculcate God lovingness in my daughter who is 2 1/2 years old. In my childhood I had respect for God, but I was a God fearing person. It was told to me that if I misbehaved, God would be annoyed with me and so on. But I want my daughter to love God, and feel satisfied that God is our real savior and supreme well-wisher. We do take her to satsangas (spiritual gatherings) and narrate Krishna's pastimes to her, but still someti

All the parts of the tree is used for treating illness, the leaves, fruit, seeds and even the bark all contain medicinal properties.
   

Because Krsna consciousness means to understand Krsna. That's all. Krsna is everything. Krsna is the origin of everything. If this much we can understand, that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He is the cause of all causes, He is the source of everything, these three, four things if we can understand, if we can understand... If we can understand one thing, we understand everything.

As human beings, we are responsible for our own lives. Look at the word responsibility -- "response-ability" -- the ability to choose your response. Highly proactive people recognize that responsibility. They do not blame circumstances, conditions, or conditioning for their behavior. Their behavior is a product of their own conscious choice, rather than a product of their conditions, based on feeling.

Reactive people are

Rather than trying to avoid criticism, expert performers welcome it. They seek out coaches and advisors who can give them constructive, sometimes even painful feedback. They then use this feedback as a guide for steady improvement.

Here are some steps you can take to handle criticism effectively:

1. Acknowledge Your Error - Acknowledging a mistake is not the same as acknowledging that you are an inferior person/a failure.

   Recently a friend asked a simple yet profound question.   Why do I worship Krsna?  And , how is He any different than any other God ?  It gave me food for thought and made me think how I could articulate my reasoning.  To be honest usually I just tell people its not something you can explain with words.  It's more an experience one must have for themselves...  Perhaps it was a copout but, that's usually how I handle this situation.

   Being from the west it is sometimes difficult for our famil

So to become Krsna conscious, even if you fail in this life, in one life, there is no loss. There is no loss in this way that you get another chance. But if you are not Krsna conscious, there is no certainty whether you are getting next life human form of life or cat's or dog's. There is no... That will be decided according to your karma. Therefore we should take to Krsna consciousness seriously and try our best to complete it in this life. Not waiting for another life. Although there is chance.

The Scientific Worldview-Truth or Consequences?
By Dhanesvara Das
Finding the Truths with Science


In a relative world, such as the one we live in, how does one find truth? That quest is undertaken by many young adults as they try to make sense of the world, and I was one such seeker in my youth. My experiences in college played an important role in guiding my search, providing a proving ground on which to test different concepts as I came across them. The Arts almost immediately failed my lit

Several hundred devotees are expected to attend the Vyasa-Puja, or birthday celebrations, of the late influential ISKCON guru Tamal Krishna Goswami, held this June 23rd and 24th at the Dallas ISKCON temple that served as his base.

While the annual Vyasa-puja for the beloved ISKCON figure is always well-attended, this year will draw an even larger crowd from across the USA and overseas. The special attraction is the book launch of Goswami’s PhD thesis, A Living Th

Chaturshloki Bhagavatam - 4/4

(Compiled from notes on lectures of H. H. Mahavishnu Goswami)

Krsna says in the Bhagavad-gita: yo me bhaktya prayacchati. Patram puspam phalam toyam yo me bhaktya prayacchati. Krsna says that "A little flower, little water, little fruit, that's all, if somebody offers Me with devotion and love, then I eat." Krsna is not hungry. Krsna is not hungry. He is self-satisfied, purna. But if His devotee offers Him something with love and affection, then He accepts. So do not think that "We have made such nice, sumptuous plate for Krsna. Krsna must eat." No. There

So here, everywhere, simply danger. But if we take shelter of the Vaikuntha, Krsna... Samasrita ye pada-pallava-plavam. It is just like the boat for crossing over a furious, dangerous ocean. Krsna's lotus feet is compared with very sound, secure boat. And boarding it, you can cross over the ocean of nescience. Bhavambudhir vatsa-padam. Bhavambudhih. Ambudhi means sea, and bhava means repetition of birth and death, birth and death. Just like in the ocean you are struggling. Sometimes you are drow
