अध्याय सत्रह -- कालिय का इतिहास (10.17)

1 [इस प्रकार कृष्ण ने कालिय की प्रताड़णा की उसे सुनकर] राजा परीक्षित ने पूछा: कालिय ने सर्पों के निवास रमणक द्वीप को क्यों छोड़ा और गरुड़ उसीका इतना विरोधी क्यों बन गया?

2-3 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: गरुड़ द्वारा खाये जाने से बचने के लिए सर्पों ने पहले से उससे यह समझौता कर रखा था कि उनमें से हर सर्प मास में एक बार अपनी भेंट लाकर वृक्ष के नीचे रख जाया करेगा। इस तरह हे महाबाहु परीक्षित, प्रत्येक मास हर सर्प अपनी रक्षा के मूल्य के रूप में विष्णु के शक्तिशाली व

I’m Tracy, another one of Pankajanghri’s nieces. Together with my brother Adam Beardon we wanted to send a message and share some photographs on behalf of our mum Sheila, one of Panakajaghri’s big sisters. Sadly mum died 9 years ago but in her last few days Pankajanghri and Jananivas phoned her every day and chanted to her which was such a lovely thing to do and I know if she was here she would have wanted to send a message of love to her dear brother.
Sheila was 9 years older than the twins an

8909960893?profile=RESIZE_584xDear devotee, I pray you are well. Here in India, we are in a War Zone!

Here is a lecture I gave yesterday with a number of Krsna’s sweet pastimes in Vrindavan. It may soothe the hearts of devotees in these difficult times. On Srimati Radharani’s request we’ll hear how Krsna began to play His flute causing His cows to soak the ground with endless streams of milk, which in turn created an ocean of milk. Moments later Lord Ananta-sesa appeared on the ocean singing Krsna’s glories with His thousand

Speaking on the first two of the six loving exchanges which are the foundation of all Vaisnava relationships. Offering gifts in charity, accepting charitable gifts, revealing one’s mind in confidence, inquiring confidentially, accepting prasāda and offering prasāda are the six symptoms of love shared by one devotee and another.

Volunteers for the Food For Life Program in Turin, one of Italy’s largest cities, distributed 15,000 meals to homeless people in need during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, and plan to increase to 20,000 meals in 2021.

The project was launched by Prabhu Das, who moved from Milan in 2015 to start a new temple in Turin, where there had been no ISKCON center for many years. He started with nothing, raised funds through book distribution, found a building with a large kitchen and

Two Verses by Bhaktimarga Swami

8909930666?profile=RESIZE_400xWhile keeping indoors from ongoing showers, the real shelter for me for the afternoon was a Zoom call with our weekly Gita study group. We dove into chapter nine of this dialogue of a masterpiece. Krishna and Arjuna are communicating on an important subject matter.

Firstly, we examined text twenty-seven which is about the spirit of giving and doing all things in the right consciousness. “Do all things for me,” is Krishna’s direction, or, as I would put it, to offer everything to the Universe; im

अध्याय सोलह - कृष्ण द्वारा कालिय नाग को प्रताड़ना (10.16)

1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने यह देखकर कि काले सर्प कालिय ने यमुना नदी को दूषित कर रखा है, उसे शुद्ध करने की इच्छा की और इस तरह उन्होंने कालिय को उसमें से निकाल भगाया।

2 राजा परीक्षित ने पूछा: हे विद्वान मुनि, कृपा करके यह बतलाये कि किस तरह भगवान ने यमुना के अगाध जल में कालिय नाग को प्रताड़ित किया और वह कालिय किस तरह अनेक युगों से वहाँ पर रह रहा था?

3 हे ब्राह्मण, अनन्त भगवान अपनी इच्छानुसार स्वतंत्र रूप से कर्म करते हैं

Request To & From A Mother

8909932075?profile=RESIZE_584xBy Achyut Gopal Das
 
Today on the occasion of Mother's Day, I went to meet the cow, our mother to wish her for Mother's Day and make a request to her. I requested her to shower her blessings and mercy on her children who are suffering so badly due to the deadly covid virus. The good news for all of us is that, she mercifully agreed to shower her heartfelt blessings, prayers, mercy on all her children. After all, that's the heart of a mother - always wanting and desiring best for her children.

अध्याय पन्द्रह - धेनुकासुर का वध (10.15)

1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: वृन्दावन में रहते हुए जब राम तथा कृष्ण ने पौगण्ड अवस्था (6-10 वर्ष) प्राप्त कर ली तो ग्वालों ने उन्हें गौवें चराने के कार्य की अनुमति प्रदान कर दी। इस तरह अपने मित्रों के साथ इन दोनों बालकों ने वृन्दावन को अपने चरणकमलों के चिन्हों से अत्यन्त पावन बना दिया।

2 इस तरह अपनी लीलाओं का आनन्द उठाने की इच्छा से वंशी बजाते हुए और अपने गुणगान कर रहे ग्वालबालों से घिरे हुए तथा बलदेव के साथ जाते हुए माधव ने गौवों को अपने आगे कर लिया और

8904758065?profile=RESIZE_400xIt was unexpected..the way it happened. But I wanted to share it with you all. It was Glorious. It is absolutely possible to go back home, back to Godhead, to Krishna in THIS VERY LIFETIME. And I can say this with absolute conviction…Because We saw our Father do it with our own very eyes.

To our dearest, beloved Jananivasa Prabhu,
We offer our obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga.

Our hearts overflow with bittersweet love as we witness your painful separation from your beloved brother and lifelong companion, Pankajanghri Prabhu. It is often impossible to express in words such deeply felt loving affection; even harder to add the pain of vipralambha to that love; it can surely be said that n

To All Devotees Around the World,

With heavy hearts we observed the peaceful passing of His Grace Pankajanghri prabhu yesterday. As one of the most critical personalities in the development of the Pujari floor of the Temple of the Vedic Planetarium, his absence is now deeply felt. Over the years (even decades), we have come to rely on his seniority, purity, and quality of devotion to Krishna as an example to us all.
Still, it is in the mood of se

Even though covid is spreading so rapidly with the possibility of death lingering very close to us still, the desire to enjoy this world is still strong. Isn't it surprising? Probably not because Maya after all is very strong and clever. She keeps the hope to enjoy this world even in the face of the greatest dangers alive and burning in our hearts and thus keeps us stuck here birth after birth.

As Adi Shankaracharya prays in his famous Bhaja Govindam song -

8904667686?profile=RESIZE_584xWhen rain comes, as it does now as I write, it sets a mood for meditation. I was thinking about Mayapura in India as those raindrops hit the window panes of my room.

Mayapura has been bursting with energy, with so many pilgrims coming daily, families moving there to take up residence and a new temple arising. We get reports that while international travel has been slow, fueled by the virus restrictions, attendance from all over India has been good, especially during Holi/Gaura Purnima time in Fe

अध्याय चौदह ब्रह्मा द्वारा कृष्ण की स्तुति (10.14)

1 ब्रह्मा ने कहा: हे प्रभु, आप ही एकमात्र पूज्य भगवान हैं अतएव आपको प्रसन्न करने के लिए मैं आपको सादर नमस्कार करता हूँ और आपकी स्तुति करता हूँ। हे ग्वालनरेश पुत्र, आपका दिव्य शरीर नवीन बादलों के समान गहरा नीला है; आपके वस्त्र बिजली के समान देदीप्यमान हैं और आपके मुखमण्डल का सौन्दर्य गुञ्जा के बने कुण्डलों से तथा सिर पर लगे मोरपंख से बढ़ जाता है। अनेक वन-फूलों तथा पत्तियों की माला पहने तथा चराने की छड़ी (लकुटी), शृंग और वंशी से सज्जित आप अपने हाथ
