If you don’t cultivate positive habits, if you don’t cultivate positive philosophy then you will be forced to cultivate negative thoughts. If you don’t have good habits you are going to have bad habits. You have a choice, either you cultivate good habits or you cultivate bad habits.By H.H. Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaj

The Self is Guilty, Not the Body

Posted by Ravi Chandran on October 14, 2011 at 11:07am

Question: Body is Guilty of Sin, Not the Self?My parents say that sins are done by the body (deham) not the self (dehi or atma) within the body. Their logic is that once the body dies and is burnt or buried all the sins go away, that the self or atma is immortal and pious and thus has no sins on its record. Is this true?Dr. R.S.Answer: No. The Self is Guilty, Not the BodyIf this were true, the murderer could claim that he was not guilty of killing his victim because it was the gun that actually

How Everyone Can Be Sufficiently Wealthy

Posted by Ravi Chandran on October 14, 2011 at 11:05am

Uploaded from Copenhagen, DenmarkPeople all over the world are always worried about not having sufficient money to live happily, but there is no need for all of this anxiety. Material opulence is given by Lakshmi, the goddess of fortune, who always remains engaged in loving service to God, Her beloved Lord Narayana, an expansion of Krishna. By Lakshmi's grace those who fully engage their wealth in the service of God are given whatever wealth is required to engage themselves happily in His servic

So we are celebrating the month of Damodara. That is a very special month. In this month we celebrate so many loving pastimes. Krishnas love is simultaneous. He has the love relationship with the Gopis, His most dear. He has the love relationship with the Gopas, His intimate friends. He has the loving relationship with Yashoda, Nanda, with everybody. And it is a very exciting month because Krishna is very sweet and very happy. Actually Kartika means Radharani, it's the month of Radharani. So Kri

Thought Of The Day

When ones mind is attached to Krsna, one can fulfill the mission of life in one human birth. If one misses this opportunity, one does not know where he is going, how long he will remain in the cycle of birth and death, and when he will achieve the human form of life and the chance to return home, back to Godhead. The most intelligent person, therefore, uses every moment of his life to render loving service to the Lord.(Srimad-Bhagavatam 9.9.42, Purport).By H.D.G. Srila Prabhupada

Worldly woes!!!!!

Posted by Radha Krishna Spiritual Portal on October 13, 2011 at 3:09pm

World frowns, forbids and finds faults to tease;Sri Krishna says forgive, forgo- for His love fills moments to say cheese;Worldly troubles makes one beg, steal- life does not ease;Devotion says chant Sri Radha Krishna- smiles shower tears cease.

Real religion means to know God, our relation with Him and our duties inrelation with Him and to know ultimately our destination after leaving thismaterial body.>>> Ref. VedaBase => SB 1.3.43

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).By H.D.G.

Steve Jobs and Hare Krishna

Posted by Umesh modak on October 11, 2011 at 8:15pm

The world continues to mourn the death of Apple founder and visionary Steve Jobs, who passed away on Wednesday, October 5, hailing him as an innovator who forever changed the landscape of our lives. In offering our condolences, Hare Krishna devotees might be especially interested to reflect on some interesting connections between this remarkable man and our own faith tradition. Here are three:

First, as a young man Jobs regularly attended the Sunday Feast at an ISKCON temple. He famously recollec

Don’t ask Him for castles -as they will turn to ruins;Don’t ask Him for mortals- as they will turn to coffins;Don’t ask Him for beginnings- as they will turn to endings;Don’t ask but love Sri Krishna - they all will turn to blessings.

Anyone who has any desire or aspiration for satisfying his senses by becoming more and more important, either in the material sense or in the spiritual sense, cannot actually relish the really sweet taste of devotional service.(The Nectar of Devotion, p. 33).By H.D.G. Srila Prabhupada
