Did you know that you have a severe birth defect? That birth defect is that you have a mortal body. Your original body is eternally youthful, full of knowledge, and full of bliss. But your present body is defective in so many ways. It has imperfect senses, it gets old, and it dies. So instead of remaining in this defective condition birth after birth, revive your original Krishna consciousness and regain your original perfect body in the spiritual sky.

As soon as you think that I am the doer, and it is because of me the success has been achieved then you will see that with time whatever little spiritual strength you have gained that gets lost. Vyasa Puja, 27.08.08, New Delhi

A devotee who faithfully engages in the worship of the Deity in the temple but does not behave properly toward other devotees or people in general is called a praakrutha bhakta, a materialistic devotee, and is considered to be in the lowest position. SB 11.2.47 -by H.D.G. Srila Prabhupada
Hareeeee! Hareeeee! ….Hareeeeee! Hareeeeee!
From all 10 directions These Names entered into my body through all pores of the skin. My heart cried:
-please! Please! Let this never end! Please, oh Holy Name, be with me forever!

This was a Sunday program which I first visited in Sri Sri Radha Gopinath Temple. Devotees told me to come to the Temple exactly at 12 PM, otherwise I will listen the lecture outside. I did as they told, occupied some place on the floor, putting my bag. Then

I’m sure you’re all aware of the global financial situation. So many economies are collapsing, and this is reflected on a local level, with so many families facing massive financial debt. Why are people in so much debt?
One simple reason why, is because we cannot control our spending. Credit cards provide us a facility to buy the goods now, with money that we don't actually have. This is fine, so long as we have control of our mind and senses, and we monitor how much we're spending. But when we

Devotee: So I have to free myself from all cares of future, for myself?
Srila Prabhupada: Yes. Faith should be there, that if I’m working
rightly, then my future is secure. That is the reason I have taken to
this path for going back to home, back to Godhead. So if I am doing
nicely, according to the instructions, then why bother about the
future? If you are concerned, just do as Krishna says, "Always chant,
think of Me." So why don’t you do this? Krishna assures, "You will
come to Me." There is no doub
Srila Prabhupada writes that the seekers of the Absolute Truth are never allured by unnecessary engagements in sense gratification, because the serious students seeking the Absolute Truth are always overwhelmed with the work of researching the Truth.
Does that resonate a little bit? “I have so much service to do, there is no time.”
But sometimes we find that there is so much service to do that there is no time for sadhana (personal meditation). That’s not good. Sadhana is giving us the strength
Yes, it is long and tiring when we are not properly equipped... but if one makes the attempt to "charge up the batteries" by intensely focusing on chanting and hearing the Holy Names of the Lord at the beginning of one's day, then we see how we get more effective, more relaxed, and as a result, less tired.
We need sufficient rest to keep the body healthy for service to Krishna. Srila Prabhupada recommended 6 hours of rest. Some advanced devotees need less rest than that. Sometimes children may ne
Hare Krishna!
In today's environment, over 99% of the devotees of ISKCON live outside the temple, as they are householders.
Temple environment is definitely most conducive to spiritual life, but it is not a prerequisite to a Krishna Conscious life. In fact, if someone is not ready, then temple environment can scare them, because it is very austere and one has to be very surrendered to stay on in a temple for all of one's life.
You may have some way of earning a livelihood, think every morning who a
Question: How to Get Krishna Conscious Leaders? |
||||
What way can you find to get the leaders of this world today to understand that the politician par excellence, Lord Krishna, has already laid all the systems in place in the Bhagavad-gita for the perfect society? All the work has already been done. What is so difficult to just follow? In my country a lot of the leaders take oath of office by swearing on Gita. I think that a being like yourself must find a way. You owe it to Lord Krishna, as from you |
