The basic problem plaguing and torturing the modern human society is that we lack gratitude. We do not know how to live gratefully. We do not feel duty bound to reciprocate with the unlimited kindness that Krishna or God is giving us at every minute. We have no qualms about taking as much sense gratification as want. But when it comes to giving back to that Supreme Person, who is supplying us everything, we either enviously deny His existence or pester Him with our material desires. Thus we live |

Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Matajis,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
The power of Mahaprasadam should never be underestimated. In Srimad Bhagavatam we have the story of Srila Narada Muni's previous birth which he narrates to Srila Vyasadev about how he became such a powerful devotee. In his previous life, Narada muni was serving in the ashram of a few sages along with his mother who was a maid-servant. He says in Srimad Bhagavatam verse 1.5.25:

“Scrap the Slaughter House Policy”
Dear All,
With the U. P. Government is giving licenses to new abattoirs in the state, there’s simply no way that we can ignore the cries of the Lakhs of innocent animals who fall victim to this barbaric cruelty and mass butchering. All the proposed ultra modern slaughter houses will have capacity to butcher 10,000-20,000 animals per day and the meat will be exported o
Exactly 365 days ago there were nearly 10 Devotees in whole Mysore who used regularly chant the Holy Names and attend the Sunday Programs. Even among them only 5 were real residents, others were comers.
Disciples of His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Maharaja His Grace Ananda Dham Prabhu (from Mumbai) and his good wife Vijayakamala Mataji (from Madurai) settled in a rented room in Mysore, just to organize here preaching programs. With the financial help of other Devotees they rented a ha

If you ever speak to an atheist, they will often say, “If God really exists, then show me God.” How do we reply to that?
The answer is that we cannot see God with our material senses. He is spiritual, and our senses our material. Just like you cannot measure someone’s body temperature with a tape measure (a tape measure is for measuring length), so similarly you cannot “see” God with your material eyes. You need spiritual eyes.
And even if we could bring God here, how would an athiest r

The 3 gunas are sometimes compared to 3 ropes, twisted together to
make one very strong rope, a rope that binds the conditioned living
being to material existence. Bhagavad-gita Chapter14 describes the
effect of the 3 modes, but it also describes how the modes can STOP
acting: when one undeviatingly engages in devotional service unto
Krishna, avyabhicari-bhakti.
BG 14.26: One who engages in full devotional service, unfailing in all
circumstances, at once transcends the modes of material nature and

We have the solution to all of the world's problems. Therefore we have the most awesome responsibility to educate the entire world population in the science of Krishna consciousness. Somehow or other we must awaken them to knowing who they actually are as pure spirit-souls and being who they actually are as Krishna's eternal servants. We have only two duties: to become fully awakened ourselves in Krishna consciousness and to awaken all others to to most sublime, happy state of pure Krishna consc

The proud, successful materialist laughs to see how much better off he is than those who are suffering in destitute impoverished conditions. But he does not realize that his successful position is only temporary. He is briefly enjoying the result of his previous pious activities while engaging in all sinful nonsense. He does not realize that as soon as his pious karma is exhausted he will be dragged down by the stringent laws of nature into a pitiable condition. In this connection there a Bengal
His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada writes in his purport to Srimad Bhagavatam 1.6.38 as follows:
"No one can be truly happy within the material world. Srila Narada Muni, in order to enlighten the miserable inhabitants, wanders everywhere. His mission is to get them back home, back to Godhead. That is the mission of all genuine devotees of the Lord following the footsteps of that great sage."
Srila Narada Muni is one of the predecessor acharyas in our line of disciplic succession

Of the many wonderful pastimes of Srila Prabhupada I heard a wonderful
story that I'd never heard the second part of until now.
First part was with Prabhupada travelling to South America with his two
servants, the temple where they'd been gave them a packed lunch for the plane,
so in the air Srutakirti Prabhupada's servant opened Prabhupad's lunch pack and
served him his prasadam of puffed rice and peanuts. Prabhupada had his fill and
handed over the remnants to Srutakirti who'd just began eating when
