To become perfect is not very difficult job. But because we don’t want to
become perfect, because we want to be cheated, we do not become perfect.

Vyasadeva was not an ordinary fiction writer. Anyone can write any nonsense.
No. Formerly, no book will be accepted unless it is written by liberated
soul. That was the system. No other man will dare to write any book, neither
his book will be accepted in society. Only Vedic literature and literature
produced out of Vedic knowledge. That is book. Otherwise, what are these
books? These fictions and nove
On Tuesday December 14th, members and supporters of the Hungarian Society for Krishna Consciousness protested outside Hungary's Parliament against a new law that could strip them of their status as a recognized church, and which puts the very existence of their world-famous self-sustainable Krishna-valley farm into question.

Dear devotees of Srila Prabhupada's ISKCON,

On Monday, December 19th, in Tomsk, Russia, a historic court case is taking place. Some of our movement's detractors are making a major court case, attempting to establish that Srila Prabhupada's Bhagavad Gita As It Is is is "extremist literature" and on these grounds have it banned throughout the country. The implications for ISKCON in Russia and even in the former USSR are far reachi
So there are three kinds of processes to receive knowledge: pratyaksa, aitihya and sabda. Pratyaksa means by direct perception, experimental knowledge. And aitihya, or anumana. Anumana, hypothesis, "It may be like this," "Perhaps like this." Just like modern scientists say, "Perhaps it is like this." That is called anumana, hypothesis. And another process is sabda-pramana. Sruti-pramana. Sabda means sound vibration, and sruti means aural reception. So out of three processes, the sabda-pramana, o
Devotees in Tomsk, Siberia, are currently in court fighting an attempt by the Russian government’s Federal Security Service (FSB) to prove that Srila Prabhupada’s Bhagavad-gita As It Is is an extremist literature that should be banned.
It all began in May 2010, when an officer of the Tomsk FSB division approached Sergey S. Avanesov, the dean of the philosophy department at Tomsk University, and asked him for his “expert assessment” of the Bhagavad-gita As It Is.
Interestingly, Avanesov also teache

At the crack of dawn on 11th December, my husband and I drove down from Delhi to Ludhiana, the industrial capital of Punjab to participate in the world renowned Ratha Yatra of Lord Jagannath. On entering the city innumerable big and small colorful billboards informing the Lord Jagannath Ratha Yatra were visible. Whatever direction one moved his eyes; it was hard to miss them. As we moved on the whole city was decorated with flyers, banners and placards with beautiful pictures of Their Lordship

To prove that universe was created with smashing of proton
They say smashing and bang happened for no reason
And matter turned into mass and spirit without reason
Life cannot spring out of matter
Even a child knows this better
Can inanimate particles collide and make life?
How silly to spends billions behind this obstinate rife
Just accept with humility that the creator has a purpose for creating one and all
How can the universe run systematically without control?

BUDAPEST, Hungary — Hare Krishna members on Tuesday protested outside Hungary’s Parliament against a new law that could strip them of their status as a recognized church.
Hungary’s church law taking effect Jan. 1 grants official status to 14 Christian churches and Jewish congregations but forces all others to submit a new registration request and gain approval from a two-thirds majority of lawmakers.

So this material civilization is just like decorating the dead body. This body is dead. That is a fact. So long the soul is there, it is working, it is moving. Just like your coat. It is dead. But so long it is on your body, it appears the coat is moving. The coat is moving. But if somebody is very much astonished, "Oh, how nice the coat is moving!" (laughter) He does not know the coat cannot move. The coat is dead. But because the man is there who is putting on the coat, therefore the coat is m
