Change yourself rather than trying to change the world

Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled a prosperous country. One day, he went for a trip to some distant areas of his country. When he came back to his palace, he complained that his feet were very painful, because it was the first time that he went for such a long trip, and the road that he went through was very rough and stony. He then ordered his people to cover every road of the entire country with leather carpet.

One day, a hippy couple who stopped to hear the chanting, told Bali-mardana of an abandoned house in nearby inner-city Woolloomooloo. He quickly moved there to save paying rent.

Exiting from a strict customs check, his eyes searched through the jostling noisy crowds in the arrival lobby, looking for Bali-mardana, whom he had never met. He thought he heard a mrdanga amongst the uproar -- yes -- he

"How to Avoid Pain"? 

 

1) When one comes under the umbrella of Krishna Consciousness, there will not be any pain at all

 

2) Even though, there is a pain, devotees take it as it a great pleasure and gift of Krishna, for Krishna giving us an opportunity to be more closer  to HIM, thinking of HIM, praying HIM, at all times and under all circumstances.

 

3) our mood should always be of queen Kunti that we should always invite and accept problems and sufferings because only and only when one has pains /

Wonderful experiences in life are not planned. Cannot be planned. They come in our life out of the blue just like a beautiful aroma which suddenly wafts through the air and reaches our nose. completley out of its own accord. Experiences are like little pieces of a jigsaw puzzle which come together and produce a beautiful picture. It makes a picture complete. A picture of YOU. We should not be stingy or miserly.

Simplicity……………….Nectarean Mellows

 

Once at New Dwarka Srila Prabhupada was in his nice quarters. There was even a little chandelier. It was not really opulent. It was just basically nice. And Prabhupada said to one of his followers “Do you remember my quarters at Radha Damodara”? And in those days it wasn’t like it is now, Radha Damodara, it has been really renovated. It was just really simple - back in the early seventies, very very simple, like

Introduction

The transcendental talk - the all powerful discussions of Bhagavad Gita, was going on between intimate friends, namely the Hrisikesa and the Gudakesa. As friends, both of them were on the same level, but one of them voluntarily became a student of the other.

 

Krishna openly speaks Bhagavad Gita

Krsna was smiling because a friend had chosen to become a disciple. As Lord of all, He is always in the superior position as the master of everyone, and yet the Lord agrees to be a friend, a son

Being simple is a very very great opulence in this age of Kali. Srila Prabhupada was so simple. He really didn’t want anything for himself. He just wanted to serve. He just wanted to speak the truth. Recently I was reading Srila Prabhupada’s Vyasa Puja offering in 1973 in London. There were hundreds and hundreds of devotees from all of the European continent and the UK coming to su
