Srimati Radharani Talks to a Bumblebee

(by Krishna-kripa dasa)

based on Srila Prabhupada's Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead

Srimati Radharani is the eternal consort of Lord Krishna. Five thousand years ago, when Lord Krishna came to this planet to perform His pastimes, Srimati Radharani also appeared. The following is adapted from a lecture by His Holiness Varshana Swami:

“On a half-moon night in the month of Bhadra, King Vrishabhanu came to the Jamuna to bathe and found himself engulfed in a golden aura, the golden aura of pure love. It was emanating from a lotus, which had a baby girl standing on its whorl. When the

Srimati Radharani is the direct counterpart of Lordi Krishna. She is the central figure for all the goddesses of fortune. She possesses all the attractiveness to attract the all-attractive Personality of Godhead. She is the primeval internal potency of the Lord . She is the chief associate and devotee of Lord Krishna, and topmost of all goddesses Srimati Radharani is the Supreme Goddess. She is mo

Knowledge about Srimati Radharani, Her relationship with Krishna, Her relationships with Her sakhis and gopi manjaris is expanded throughout the confidential literatures of Gaudiya Vaisnavism. In recent years these books are becoming more accessible to English speaking readers. We are becoming more aware, at least theoretically, that devotion to Srimati Radharani is the topmost expression of Krishna consciousness. Bhaktivinoda Thakura says in one of his songs, “Srimati Radhika is the teacher of

It is better to think that spiritual advancement depends on our effort. Otherwise you will just wait for mercy. In English there is a saying, God helps those who help themselves. Krishna also says, ‘All of them, as they surrender unto Me, I reward them accordingly’. (Bhagavad-gita 7.3 ), Moscow, 19 May 2001

Prabhupada indicated once that the scripture settles the matter.  How we can count all the species?  Impossible!  But the scripture tells exactly, so we can understand nicely.  Yes, it is a matter of how envious we become, to lose the human form and maybe have to go all the way down to an indra gopa germ (one celled living being.)  Then we have to come back up one species at a time, until we have the human form again and can transfer to the spiritual world.  If we don't use the human form for it

Tomorrow you become a big preacher, don’t take the credit, give it to Guru and Krishna. Whenever we would go to Prabhupada and thank him and glorify him for the service he had done he would say, ‘I have done nothing. This is all happening due to the mercy of my Guru Maharaj and Krishna’.(Bhagavad-gita 7.3 ), Moscow, 19 May 2001.

Partially explaining the position of Lord Kṛṣṇa and partially covering the facts, Gargamuni indicated, "Your son is a great personality, and He can change the color of His body in different ages." The word gṛhṇataḥ indicates that Kṛṣṇa is free to make His choice. In other words, He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and may therefore do whatever He desires. In Vedic literature the different colors assumed by the Personality of Godhead in differ

Not long ago we celebrated the appearance of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, but in these days devotees in various parts of the world celebrated the appearance of Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami, the great Vaishnava and disciple of the Srila pRbhupad. Instructions of his spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada, are Gour Govinda Maharaja's life and soul. Srila Prabhupada ordered him to translate his books in Oriya language, which Maharaja ardently executed throughout his life. He was also successfu

TRANSLATION "My dear King, do not be agitated and anxious because your
sacrifices have not been properly executed due to providential
impediments. Kindly take my words with great respect. We should always
remember that if something happens by providential arrangement, we
should not be very sorry. The more we try to rectify such reversals,
the more we enter into the darkest region of materialistic thought."

PURPORT Sometimes the saintly or very religious person also has to
meet with reversals in life. S

As soon the common central point of existence is removed the whole global social order begins to disintegrate. It deteriorates more and more until eventually there is nothing left of the human civilization. Therefore those who are both enlightened and compassionate fully dedicate their lives for ending the chaos by taking all risks of personal comfort and safety to widely propagate the ultimate self-realization science all over the world. It is in many ways a thankless task because such dedicate
