अध्याय सत्ताईस - इन्द्रदेव तथा माता सुरभि द्वारा स्तुति (10.27)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: कृष्ण के गोवर्धन पर्वत उठाने तथा भयंकर वर्षा से व्रजवासियों की रक्षा करने के बाद गौवों की माता सुरभि गोलोक से कृष्ण का दर्शन करने आई। इनके साथ इन्द्र था।
2 भगवान का अपमान करने के कारण इन्द्र अत्यन्त लज्जित था। एकान्त स्थान में उनके पास जाकर इन्द्र उनके चरणों पर गिर पड़ा और सूर्य के समान तेज वाले मुकुट को भगवान के चरणकमलों पर रख दिया।
3 अब तक इन्द्र सर्वशक्तिमान कृष्ण की दिव्य शक्ति को सुन तथा देख चुका

Krishna’s People (Gente di Krishna), a new online talk show in Italian, gives voice to the devotee majority in Italy – those who live regular lives working, studying and taking care of their families, while incorporating Krishna consciousness.
The program, hosted by Villa Vrindavana temple president and Italian Communications Director Parabhakti Das, takes place live on Zoom every Friday at 7pm Italian time, and is broadcast to platforms like Facebook, Instagram and Youtube.
Shaping a prayer was a portion of today’s preoccupation. Why is prayer important? It is a practice amongst followers of bhakti yoga. A person by the name of Akura, during Krishna’s time, championed this. In my spare time I’m piecing together a poem to address the nature and healing power of prayer.
It’s fun and it’s provocative.
Today was also splendid in the sense that two god-siblings called at different times to reach out. It is always great to reminisce, which is what we usually do when we
भगवान का नाम हमारे हृदय को शुद्ध क्यों नहीं करता?
Bhagwaan ka naam hamare hriday ko shuddh kyun nahi karta?
अध्याय छब्बीस - अद्भुत कृष्ण (10.26)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: जब गोपों ने गोवर्धन पर्वत उठाने जैसे कृष्ण के कार्यों को देखा तो वे विस्मित हो गये। उनकी दिव्य शक्ति को न समझ पाने के कारण वे नन्द महाराज के पास गये और इस प्रकार बोले।
2 ग्वालों ने कहा: जब यह बालक ऐसे अद्भुत कार्य करता है, तो फिर किस तरह हम जैसे संसारी व्यक्तियों के बीच उसने जन्म लिया? ऐसा जन्म तो उसके लिए घृणित लगेगा।
3 यह सात वर्ष का बालक किस तरह विशाल गोवर्धन पर्वत को खेल खेल में एक हाथ से उसी तरह उठाये रह सकता है, जिस तरह
हमें पाप करने की इच्छा क्यों होती है?

A new program at New Vrindaban in West Virginia, dubbed “Seva-Yoga,” has been launched to help guests build a relationship with Krishna through service.
“It evolved naturally from an experience we had over the weekend of Gaura Purnima,” says New Vrindaban Lodge Manager Sarah. “We were short-staffed for various different services, so a team of people like the temple president Jaya Krishna, communications director Anuradha, and others jumped in to help clean the rooms to get t
On this day Jahnu Muni swallowed and released the Ganga, who was on her way to deliver the ancestors of King Bhagiratha – this is one reason why the Ganges is also called the Bhagirathi.
On this day, the Ganga is worshipped, and many people make offerings to the forefathers, and bathe in the Ganga. On this day, if possible, one should worship the Ganges and bathe in her waters.

We are keeping it up. Every day Dharma Prana and I attend the noon services, called Bhoga Arati where I play the mrdunga drum and sing in a type of serenade to entertain the deities of Krishna on the balcony or altar.
My beating that drum becomes a kind of needed work-out. Also, for the Tuesday night garbage pick up, the trash must be ready for bringing out to the street. To prepare for that I saw the opportunity to crush the accumulation of cardboard boxes. Our produce arrives in those boxes w
अध्याय पच्चीस - कृष्ण द्वारा गोवर्धन - धारण (10.25)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे राजा परीक्षित, जब इन्द्र को पता चला कि उसका यज्ञ सम्पन्न नहीं हुआ तो वह नन्द महाराज तथा अन्य गोपजनों पर क्रुद्ध हो गया क्योंकि वे सब कृष्ण को अपना स्वामी मान रहे थे।
2 क्रुद्ध इन्द्र ने ब्रह्माण्ड का विनाश करने वाले बादलों के समूह को भेजा जो सांवर्तक कहलाते हैं। वह अपने को सर्वोच्च नियन्ता मानते हुए इस प्रकार बोला।
3 इन्द्र ने कहा: जरा देखो तो सही कि जंगल में वास करने वाले ये ग्वाले अपने वैभव से किस तरह इतने उन
Imagine that in every situation in life you are more grounded, centered, present and free to respond in the most conscious and empowering way.
Imagine in each moment of your life, no matter how challenging the experience may be, you feel yourself being led into an even deeper connection with yourself and all those around you.
Ayurveda teaches us that every sensation we feel, whether physical or emotional, is our body's way of communicating vital information with us. The “feelings” we feel are g
अध्याय चौबीस -- गोवर्धन-पूजा (10.24)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: उस स्थान पर अपने भाई बलदेव के साथ रहते हुए कृष्ण ने ग्वालों को इन्द्र-यज्ञ की जोर-शोर से तैयारी करते देखा।
2 परमात्मा होने से भगवान कृष्ण पहले से ही सारी स्थिति जानते थे फिर भी विनीत भाव से उन्होंने अपने पिता नन्द महाराज इत्यादि गुरुजनों से पूछा।
3 भगवान कृष्ण ने कहा: हे पिताश्री, कृपा करके मुझे बतलायें, कि आप इतना महत प्रयास किसलिए कर रहे हैं, आप क्या करना चाह रहे हैं, यदि यह कर्मकाण्डी यज्ञ है, तो यह किसकी तुष्टि हेतु किया जा
The second annual International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) Law Department conference was conducted May 1st and 2nd, 2021, in a meeting attended by more than 50 devotees, with good representation from six continents. Following formal recognition of the Law Department by the GBC in 2018, the first conference of the Law Department was held in January 2020, in Gainesville, Florida. This year plans to hold the conference in India were scuttled due to Covid-19, and the meeting was held
In the morning the sun shot out to bless the sky and earth. By noon clouds closed the doors to a usually welcome sun.
But the sun did shine on my day in the form of three Zoom talks; the first on the topic of Vedic hero, Bhishma. Truly, he is one of my favourites. Moments for honoring him was possible by the request of Kirtan Vancouver, although I expected that the request for my conducting a discussion would probably be on the Mother’s Day theme. Bhishma was one of those noble men who looked a
