One day, the supremely playful Sri Krsna was sitting in the shade under the trees on the northen bank of this lake, together with the gopis, and was laughing and joking with vinodini Sri Radhika. At that time, many monkeys from nearby places descended from the trees, being attracted by Krsna's sweet beauty. They respectfully bowed at His lotus feet, sang in joy, jumped and danced. Severa
SB 4.5.22: Then Vīrabhadra, the giantlike personality, sat on the chest of Dakṣa and tried to separate his head from his body with sharp weapons, but was unsuccessful.
SB 4.5.23: He tried to cut the head of Dakṣa with hymns as well as weapons, but still it was hard to cut even the surface of the skin of Dakṣa's head. Thus Vīrabhadra was exceedingly bewildered.
SB 4.5.24: Then Vīrabhadra saw the wooden device in the sacrificial arena by which the animals were to have been killed. He took the opport

Scientists of various disciplines are working hard to discover the principles of the biological clock within the human body that sets the pace for aging and finally signals the time for death. Thus they hope to learn how to prolong man’s life, and apparently they are making some progress. How successful their efforts will prove remains to be seen, but perhaps even more important: If they do succeed, how shall we use our ext
WHAT EVERY LIVING ENTITY MUST KNOW
The Krishna consciousness movement is essential in human society, for it offers the highest perfection of life. How this is so is explained fully in the Bhagavad-gita. Unfortunately, mundane wranglers have taken advantage of Bhagavad-gita to push forward their demonic propensities and mislead people regarding right understanding of the simple principles of life.
Everyone should know how God, or Krishna, is great, and everyone should know the factual position of t

Dear Prabhujis and Mathajis,
Hare Krishna! Please accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Gurudev!
Our beloved spiritual master H.H. Mahavishnu Goswami Maharaj has deep love and affection for the young children and he always encourages them. When children recite the verses from Bhagavad gita and Srimad Bhagavatam, Maharaj becomes extremely pleased. So many parents took to Krishna consciousness just because of Maharaj’s encouragement and appreciation of the small children.

1. I gaze on a splendour that bears the name Radha, a splendour glorious like millions of lightning flashes, a splendour joyful with a festival of amorous pastimes, a festival that has beautiful jasmine-decorated braids, hair parted with a splendid line of red sindura, wonderful tilaka drawn with nine jewels, glistening earrings on its cheeks, a locket on its neck, a great necklace, and new red gar

If you say, "Oh, you are a karmi, you are a mudha..." actually he's a mudha, but in the beginning if you say like that, then there will be no opportunity to speak. He is a mudha, that there is no doubt -- working like hogs and dogs day and night for sense gratification. Certainly he is a mudha, a karmi. We have to preach, but if we say directly that "You are all mudhas, mayayapahrta-jnana, and duskrtina,"
After his lecture, Prabhupada called for questions. An Indian man stood up and said in a loud voice, ''Isn't it true that the all-inclusive conception of the Absolute...'' He rambled on. After about three minutes, the audience began fidgeting.
Prabhupada leaned toward the microphone and asked, ''Are you finished?'' ''No,'' the man retorted, and

Boys and Cows Saved From the Effect of Poison
1. Once, surrounded by boyfriends, Krsna went without Balarama to the Yamuna River after wandering through the forest of Vrindavan.
2. At that time the cows and cowherd boys were feeling acute distress from the glaring summer sun. Afflicted by thirst, they drank the water of the Yamuna River. But it had been contaminated with poison.
3. As soon as they touched the poisoned water, all the
