Is it not the most divine form of communication
A way of expression, a marvelous supplication
An urge from the heart due to a hurt or a wound
A cry so desperate from feeling so ruined
A call for help as if lost in dense jungle
Seeking signs for a way out of the tangle
Prayer can be a request for strength, hope, courage
It certainly transcends any mundane verbiage
But special requests do not alone constitute prayer
Prayer should not only refer to events of despair
Not just reserved when life app

अध्याय तैंतीस - रास नृत्य (10.33)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: जब गोपियों ने भगवान को अत्यन्त मनोहारी इन शब्दों में कहते सुना तो वे उनके विछोह से उत्पन्न अपना दुख भूल गई। उनके दिव्य अंगों का स्पर्श पाकर उन्हें लगा कि उनकी सारी इच्छाएँ पूर्ण हो गई।
2 तत्पश्चात भगवान गोविन्द ने वहीं यमुना के तट पर उन स्त्री-रत्न श्रद्धालु गोपियों के संग में रासनृत्य लीला प्रारम्भ की जिन्होंने प्रसन्नता के मारे अपनी बाँहों को एक दूसरे के साथ शृखंलाबद्ध कर दिया।
3 तब उल्लासपूर्ण रासनृत्य प्रारम्भ हुआ जिसमें गोपिय
I am writing this to hopefully stir some practical steps to re-ignite a better place for the oxen.
Lord Caitanya told Chand Kazi that the bull is like our father because he helps us produce grains ***vrisha anna upajaya tate tenho pita*** CC Adi 17.153. I am sure we have quoted that or paraphrased it in our presentations about the importance of the cow and the bull and that they should not be killed. Do we really believe it is relevant for society? For Lord Caitanya it was a significant argumen

On May 1st, 2nd and 8th, devotees from all over Brazil and beyond attended the “Art of Caring for Vaishnavas” Zoom webinar by Vaishnavas CARE co-founder Sangita Devi Dasi, which offered training in how to lovingly serve devotees, especially those experiencing terminal illnesses.
Altogether 80 people registered for the course including participants from the North and South of Brazil, several generations, senior devotees, brahmacharis, congregational members, newcomers, a disci
A Montreal group of Russian speaking origin occupied the late morning on a zoom call. My assignment was on the topic of “Memories of Prabhupada,” referring to my own recollections of our reverent guru. Despite my lack of preparedness for the presentation, the listeners were so attentive and appreciative. The translations done for Ukrainian and Russian folks did not hamper the presentation. One woman confessed, “You made us feel close to him.”
A second group tuned in from the Central Asia area,
अध्याय बत्तीस - पुनः मिलाप (10.32)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे राजन, इस तरह गाकर तथा अपने हृदय की बातों को विविध मोहक विधियों से प्रकट करके गोपियाँ जोर जोर से रोने लगीं। वे कृष्ण का दर्शन करने के लिए अत्यन्त लालायित थीं।
2 तब भगवान कृष्ण अपने मुखमण्डल पर हँसी धारण किए गोपियों के समक्ष प्रकट हो गये। माला तथा पीत वस्त्र पहने वे ऐसे लग रहे थे, जो सामान्य जनों के मन को मोहित करने वाले कामदेव के मन को भी मोहित कर सकते थे।
3 जब गोपियों ने देखा कि उनका परमप्रिय कृष्ण उनके पास लौट आया है, तो वे सह

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada gave the following Kavacha for the protection of sannyasis he had send to the west:
Sri Nrisimha Kavacha of the Trailokya Vijaya in the Samhita of Brahma
1. Sri Narad Muni said: “My dear father and lord, master of the Universe, lord of the multitude of demigods headed by Indra, kindly tell me the kavaca mantra of Lord Nrsimha, the incarnation of Visnu. O master, reading this kavaca aloud, a learned man will become victorious throughout the three worlds
Today is Nrsimha-caturdasi, the appearance day of Lord Nrsimhadeva. The appearance and activities of the Lord in the world are a great mystery. Therefore in the Bhagavad-gita (4.9) Lord Krishna says:
janma karma ca me divyam
evam yo vetti tattvatah
tyaktva deham punar janma
naiti mam eti so ’rjuna
“One who knows the transcendental nature of My appearance and activities does not, upon leaving the body, take his birth again in this material world, but attains My eternal abode, O Arjuna.”

Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura has written five beautiful prayers in “Sri Navadvipa Bhava Taranga” for receiving the mercy of Lord Narasimha. These prayers are certainly assurance to all sincere devotees that the worship of Lord Narasimha is purely in the line of aspiring love and devotion to Sri Sri Radha and Krsna. Those prayers are as follows.

kutinati pratisthasa sathya sada raya

अध्याय इकतीस - गोपियों के विरह गीत (10.31)
1 गोपियों ने कहा: हे प्रियतम, व्रजभूमि में तुम्हारा जन्म होने से ही यह भूमि अत्यधिक महिमावान हो उठी है और इसीलिए इन्दिरा (लक्ष्मी) यहाँ सदैव निवास करती हैं। केवल तुम्हारे लिए ही हम तुम्हारी भक्त दासियाँ, अपना जीवन पाल रही हैं। हम तुम्हें सर्वत्र ढूँढती रही हैं अतः कृपा करके हमें अपना दर्शन दीजिये।
2 हे प्रेम के स्वामी, आपकी चितवन शरदकालीन जलाशय के भीतर सुन्दरतम सुनिर्मित कमल के कोश की सुन्दरता को मात देने वाली है। हे वरदाता, आप उन दासियों का वध कर रहे है

It was about 2002 when we kept a photo of Radha Madhava and 8 Sakhis on our wall, desiring to come to Mayapur. When we arrived here and first came to the temple for darshan, we were surprised they were wearing the same multi-coloured set that they had worn in our photo. When we told Jananivas Prabhu, he smiled and said “They’re greeting you.”
The magic of the Deities’ loving reciprocation in this unique abode is wonderful.

A lecture delivered by HH Gour Govinda Swami in Bhubaneswar 14 May, 1995 on Lord Nrsimhadeva’s appearance day.
It was appearing like a flower garland on the chest of Nrsimhadeva. It seems as if a lion had killed an elephant. So many of Hiranyakasipu’s soldiers came out to fight against the Lord, but the Lord, with His sharp nails, tore them apart and all were killed. There are many descriptions.
“Lord Nrsimhadeva’s mouth and mane were sprinkled with drops of blood, and His fierce eyes, full of
अध्याय तीस - गोपियों द्वारा कृष्ण की खोज (10.30)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: जब भगवान कृष्ण इस तरह एकाएक विलुप्त हो गये तो गोपियाँ उन्हें न देख सकने के कारण अत्यन्त व्यथित हो उठीं जिस तरह हथिनियों का समूह अपने नर के बिछुड़ जाने पर खिन्न हो उठता है।
2 भगवान श्रीकृष्ण का स्मरण करते ही गोपियों के हृदय उनकी चाल-ढाल तथा प्रेममयी मुसकान, उनकी कौतुकपूर्ण चितवन, मोहने वाली बातों तथा अपने साथ की जानेवाली अन्य लीलाओं से अभिभूत हो उठे। इस तरह रमा के स्वामी कृष्ण के विचारों में लीन वे गोपियाँ उनकी विविध
With Kamalakshi Rupini Devi
Prahlāda said: The Lord does not need anyone’s prayers, but if a devotee offers his prayers to the Lord, the devotee benefits greatly. Ignorant persons born in low families, therefore, can sincerely offer heartfelt prayers to the Lord, and the Lord will accept them. As soon as one offers his prayers to the Lord, he is immediately situated on the Brahman platform.

April 10, 2021, was a sad day for all of us. Having been unwell for almost five days our ox, Haribol, left his body at Sasni, a town in southwest Uttar Pradesh. Haribol was named by our spiritual master, Lokanath Maharaja, and whenever we called him, indirectly we were telling others to utter the name of Lord Hari. He was a very silent and cooperative ox and never attacked anybody.
Our UP padayatra began in September 2019 and Haribo
