After many years of preparation and actual work Srimad Bhagavatam First Canto Part One recently have been published in Turkish language. The book has been translated by Bhaktin Nilufer and published in Hungary with the help of the Hungarian devotees.
The book came out just before Nrsimha Caturdasi and was presented to Sivarama Swami as his Vyasa Puja gift in New Vraja Dhama, Hungary.

The bad habits tend to influence the execution of devotional service, however if these are detrimental to the cause of spiritual advancement then certainly these bad habits should be cut with the sharp blades of spiritual knowledge. One has to sharpen his intelligence so that one can easily cut the undesirable thoughts that may be motivating one’s feelings in different directions.

Whatever a person may be in the estimation of the social order of things, if a person tries to reciprocate a feeling of love towards the Supreme Personality of Godhead and is satisfied with the blessings of the Lord, he will at once feel the highest peace of mind for which he is hankering life after life.(Srimad-Bhagavatam 2.6.6, purport)

A young, new preacher was walking with an older, more seasoned preacher in the garden one day and feeling a bit insecure about what God had for him to do, he was inquiring of the older preacher. The older preacher walked up to a rosebush and handed the young preacher a rosebud and told him to open it without tearing off any petals.
The young preacher looked in disbelief at the older preacher and was trying to figure out what a rosebud could possible have to do with his wanting to know the
A good question and one that sometimes remains lodged in our subconcious mind - lingering with us like a dark cloud when we wake up in the early morning.
We chant because our soul needs the purification of Krsna's association - we are trapped here in this body, thinking we are this person or that person....an American, Indian, Australian etc. By associating with Krsna through serious Japa - concentrated and precise - then we can feel His spiritual energy and we see a clear path ahead of us on our

Answer: Not If It Is Genuine Islam. |

Since the real meaning of Islam is submission to the will of God and obedience to His law, global Islamization and Krishna conscious globalization are exactly the same thing. B |

He is coming near, along with His surabhi calves, and just see how He is wandering upon the sacred land of Vrindavana!" Nectar of Devotion, Chapter 43 |

The reading of Bhagavad-gita and chanting Hare Krishna doesn’t mean you have to abandon professional life, it doesn’t mean you have to abandon professional ambitions. No, you can go ahead and go for your education as high as you want. You can go ahead and be as ambitious in your professional career. But do it for the pleasure of Krishna. If we work for the pleasure of the lord, even if we be in the material world, we will be free from the ill-effects of the illusory energy.

at our office, many a times, I had the opportunity for inviting & sending
out reminders to the relatively newer members, thanking them for their
participation and also inquiring about the reasons for their not being able
to make it for the meeting.
Everyone of us that failed to make it in time or not at all for this
meeting always had some reason or argument favoring their cause but, the
stark truth is: "We Want Anything & Every
Ultimately, all the miseries are summarized in four things: the misery of birth... We do not... We have forgotten how much miserable condition we passed during our stay in the womb of mother, in a suffocated condition. You just imagine. Some of you might have seen the picture how the child remains within the womb of the mother. It is air-tight packed. And there are many germs who are biting the delicate skin of the child. And when the child is little grown up, at seven m
