Whatever you do,

make it an offering to me- the food you eat,

the sacrifices you make,

the help you give,

even your suffering..

Bhagavad gita, 9:26-28

Hare krishna

There is delay in throwing ourselves,

in all humility and devotional,

at the lotus feet of our beloved Sri Krishna

but there is no delay in shri Krishna showering His Grace in saving us.

Hare Krishna

All unhappiness is born out of psychological condition of mind called vritis or modifications. There r 4 conditions of mind- Competition,Jealous, Hatred and Ego which protects one from experincing peace and happiness. But what wrongs in competition, it leads to progress. Actually competition brings out the attitude to do something for win not excelling to bring out your best performance.

Jag Musaphir Jag Ghana Din

Jag musaphir jag ghana din, so liya re,

Awake, o traveler, awake! You have slept for many days.

Pehile soya mat garb me, unda pav pasar (2x)
Bhagti karke bahar aayo, bhul gyo Kartar janam tera ho liya re... Jag (etc.)

First you slept in your mother's womb with upturned legs spread out. After doing the devotion, you came out and forgot the Creator. Now you are born;

On Srila Prabhupada's Spiritual Revolution

Every devotee has his own relationship with and vision of Srila Prabhupada. Some feel more the aspect of his kind fatherliness, some have an open, friendly relationship, others approach him in great awe and reverence as their worshipful master. Many devotees related to Prabhupada as a transcendental general, the leader of the troops. Personally, I like to meditate on Srila Prabhupada as a revolutionary.

Like many of my generation, from an early age I knew

If Prabhupada Had Just Stayed A Little Longer....

The Krsna consciousness movement grew tremendously during Prabhupada's manifest presence. It was like an unstoppable steamroller crushing Kali-yuga, an enormous expanding power that we expected to take over the world very soon. When Prabhupada was here, we expected the most amazing things to happen.

Prabhupada was a conqueror for Krsna. He always thought big. "Double book distribution every year." "Drive agnosticism out of the world." "Make America

The Influence of Srila Prabhupada

Just see the influence of Srila Prabhupada! Lying on his bed in Vrndavana, at the last stage he was hardly able to move, eat or talk. Yet without even doing anything or going anywhere, he was inspiring his disciples all over the world to distribute his books in unprecedented numbers. His going to London in that condition was another incredible pastime that clearly sets Srila Prabhupada apart from the rest. There, his disciples danced with full enthusiasm before t

Srila Prabhupada's Risks and Difficulties

When we say that a preacher takes risks, it does not just mean physical risks. He also risks his reputation and his own spiritual standing. For instance, giving initiation is a risk, especially to less qualified candidates. For a disciple to fall down is a blot on the guru. Srila Prabhupada took tremendous risks. He initiated, not a few, but several thousand disciples from undisciplined, uncultured backgrounds. He gave sannyasa to unlikely candidates: you
