One week ago my dear god brother Ananta Acarya Prabhu presented me with the most wonderful collection of Hare Krishna Vinyl LP’s, I have had these in the past but never such good copies.
I am always amazed how so many individuals have never heard of the Hare Krishna movement, and have never heard the Maha Mantra. I feel so humbled as I can introduce many to the process through sound and also with prasadam as together with a listening session I can also feed them Krishna prasada

It gives us great bliss to inform that we at ISKCON Ujjain got the wonderful opportunity to spread the glories of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and Srila Prabhupada to hundreds of villages in Madhya Pradesh

At the Science World we did gather

And took a strike right at her

This illusion, maya, who is not

Received a black eye, yes, she got

We ripped through the condo town

From the street I took a look around

Chanters blocked, so I peered up

Yes, my eyes then veered up

And viewed the people from the balcony

Do they approve of our modality?

There were drum beats, loud voices galore

For some it's a bore, others a score

Religious stuff, forget it!

Free fun, let's give it some credit

We live in a world,

Rules Srila Prabhupada’s Lived By

Don’t blindly follow until you can follow blindly
Question everything. If it is false, leave it; but if it is true surrender to it.
“You must test the spiritual master for one year. And when you are convinced that here is a person I can follow blindly, then you accept.”

I recently spoke with a dear friend who left ISKCON to join an evangelical movement. When I asked him why he made such a change, his answer was eye-opening. He said, “In my heart, Krishna will always be there, but I joined the evangelicals because I felt important, taken care of, and loved in their congregation.”

What Is Congregation and Why Do We Need Them?

According to the dictionary, a congregation is a gathering of people, especially for rel

Mahendra dasa was vice president of the Pittsburgh temple when I joined there in 1972. I was an inexperienced 19 year old and he was a worldly grownup of 27 so he naturally became my mentor. When Srila Prabhupada came to Pittsburgh that year Mahendra took the lead in preparing for that visit, which included renovating the temple which he mostly did himself. He also helped to organize Visnujana Swami’s Transcendental Rock Opera performance, wherein Prabhupada spoke, at a prestigious concert hall

There is just a little more I wanted to say in regard to yesterday's flight. After meeting Eli, a young Asian student who took keen interest in my garb and what it all stood for, another person on this plane approached me with a big smile.

"Do you remember me? We only met on the phone. It was during the pandemic 2 1/2 years ago when I was telling you of my 'God experience'. You told me you were sitting on a park bench when we talked."

"Yes, I do remember that bench and the talk," I said. I was g
