In the San Diego ISKCON temple in USA, there was a gentleman called *Mr. Prakash*. He was a reserved type of person who would come regularly to the temple feasts but never really showed a lot of enthusiasm.

Few days back we went to Genting Highlands( a famous tourist attraction near Kuala Lumpur). Its a theme park with lots of fun rides and a 4-D movie theater. For those who have never watched a 4-D movie i would like to tell that in 4-D movie along with the 3-D images being projected on the screen, viewer's seat is also moved in certain ways which give the illusion to the viewer that he is also the part of the movie.

 The movie we watched was the story of a Cat who is moving inside a ghostly house.

Make a little temple in your house.  Put it in a nice and if possible a prominent place.  We should show our children by our example that we love God.  Children when they are young they may not intellectually understand so much but theimpressions that they see go deeply into  theirconsciousness and mold their whole lives.  What you do will influencethem, not what you say.  We should cook pure food stuffs in our house. We should offer it to God in devotion so that eating it will sanctifyour consc

HOW CAN WE PROVE : “GOD DOES HAVE A FORM”?

Hare Krishna Prabhuji... Please Accept My Humble Obeisances Unto Your Holy Feet...

With whatever little knowledge I am acquiring by washing my feet with the waves, coming from the Ocean of ISKCON (under the guidance of my Counselor Shri Adbhuta Gauranga Das (Anand) Prabhuji of Hyderabad), I am sharing my Spiritual Realizations with you.

1) If all of us are the children of God and we have a form, how can ourSupreme Parent not have a form? Not only does G

A beautiful conversation between three Vaishnavas on How to develop Sincere Service Attitude and How Lord Krishna Reveals the Answer………
 
Devotee 1 : How to develop Sincere Service Attitude like you?
 
Devotee 2 :  When I am not rendering any service at all, how can I answer your question?
 
Devotee 1 :  Doing Great Service and feeling that you are Not doing anything itself is a Great Attitude, which I want to develop.
 
Devotee 2 : Keeps himself Silent, without making any comment.

Dear Devotees.

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Here are two more stories, if you wish to read.

The third incident took place in Tampere. We had been distributing the whole day with Tattvavada Prabhu (our beloved GBC). I wanted to distribute until eight P.M. but he had gone for sauna as it had been a cold day. The day was coming to a close, when I saw a couple in a car. They looked quite well-to do. I said they looked

Dear devotees.

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga! All glories to His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada!

Here are two stories from the previous Srila Prabhupada marathon. I feel they are small examples on how one can be close to Krsna while trying to serve Him by distributing Srila Prabhupada’s books.

The whole marathon was very blissful and nice. There were about twelve of us distributing throughout the five weeks. Plus there were many congregational devotees

nityam va manyase mrtam
tathapi tvam maha-baho

Prabhupada:

atha cainam nitya-jatam
nityam va manyase mrtam
tathapi tvam maha-baho
nainam socitum arhasi
[Bg. 2.27]

So Krsna is putting forward the modern scientific view. The modern scientific view is that there is no soul. Life is generated from matter. By combinatio

Brother Hammer served as the chairman. The other members of the tool belt informed him that he must leave, because he was too noisy. But brother Hammer said, "If I have to leave this carpenter's shop, then
brother Gimlet must go too. He's insignificant and makes a very small
impression." (A gimlet is a small tool with a sc...rew point, grooved shank, and a cross handle for boring holes).

All the Holy Places are present where a Pure Saint is Present.

But everything is determined by our Receptivity.

Our receptivity is according to our humility, our gratitude & Eagerness.
