eParikrama 2020 Day 15 – Govardhana

8169452876?profile=RESIZE_584xEvery year from 2014 to 2019, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami took us to Govardhana. In some years, we did a full parikrama of Govardhana, in other years we visited places of significance around Govardhana such as Surabhi-kunda and Puncari, and in other years we celebrated Govardhana-puja at the Krsna Balaram Mandir in Vrndavana. Check out Maharaja’s full kirtans, lectures and puja below, along with a few photos, at and around Govardhana and also on Govardhana-puja during Parikramas 2015, 2017

Sri Govardhana Puja by Giriraj Swami

8169424496?profile=RESIZE_400x

I think of Giri Govardhana as being similar to Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, because Giri Govardhana is Krishna Himself. But although he is Krishna Himself, according to the acharyas, he is in the mood of a devotee. And many devotees worship Giri Govardhana in that mood—that he is a devotee of Krishna and of the devotees of Krishna. There is a famous verse in Srimad-Bhagavatam in which the gopis, specifically Srimati Radharani, praise Govardhana Hill as the best servant of Lord Hari.

अध्याय तेरह – भगवान वराह का प्राकट्य (3.13)

1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे राजन, मैत्रेय मुनि से इन समस्त पुण्यतम कथाओं को सुनने के बाद विदुर ने पूर्ण पुरुषोत्तम भगवान की कथाओं के विषय में और अधिक पूछताछ की, क्योंकि इनका आदरपूर्वक सुनना उन्हें पसंद था।

2 विदुर ने कहा: हे मुनि, ब्रह्मा के प्रिय पुत्र स्वायम्भुव ने अपनी अतीव प्रिय पत्नी को पाने के बाद क्या किया?

3 हे पुण्यात्मा श्रेष्ठ, राजाओं का आदि राजा (मनु) भगवान हरि का महान भक्त था, अतएव उसके शुद्ध चरित्र तथा कार्यकलाप सुनने योग्य हैं। कृप

By Madhava Smullen

In this gloomy time, there can never be too many sources of light. So it’s apt that on Diwali day (November 14th) this year, there are at least two new devotional songs set to be released. As well as Govinda Priya’s first single “Achyutam: Your Names,” another UK-based artist, Radhika Ranjana Das (affectionately known as Radhika Das) has announced his debut track Ram Sita Ram. 

“In my childhood I would hear ancient tales of Sita Ram and particularly Hanuman, the fiercely str

eParikrama 2020 Day 13 – Surabhi-kunda

8162155487?profile=RESIZE_584xIn 2017 and 2018, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami took us to Surabhi-kunda, where Indra met Krsna after the Govardhana lila to ask for forgiveness for acting out of anger. Check out Maharaja’s full kirtans and lectures below, along with a few photos, at Surabhi-kunda during Parikrama 2017 and Parikrama 2018.

Indra allowed himself to fall prey to anger by being proud. When one is proud, one gives undue importance to oneself and everything that one experiences is extremely important. When we are

अध्याय बारह – कुमारों तथा अन्यों की सृष्टि (3.12)

1 श्री मैत्रेय ने कहा: हे विद्वान विदुर, अभी तक मैंने तुमसे पूर्ण पुरुषोत्तम भगवान के काल-रूप की महिमा की व्याख्या की है। अब तुम मुझसे समस्त वैदिक ज्ञान के आगार ब्रह्मा की सृष्टि के विषय में सुन सकते हो।

2 ब्रह्मा ने सर्वप्रथम आत्मप्रवंचना, मृत्यु का भाव, हताशा के बाद क्रोध, मिथ्या स्वामित्व का भाव तथा मोहमय शारीरिक धारणा या अपने असली स्वरूप की विस्मृति जैसी अविद्यापूर्ण वृत्तियों की संरचना की।

Happy Diwali by Giriraj Swami

8159535064?profile=RESIZE_584x

We wish you all a happy Diwali. Diwali, or Dipavali, marks the end of the year, and by the year’s end we want to pay our debts, rectify our relationships–and then try to do better the next year.

The Vedic literatures inform us that in the present age, Kali-yuga, the recommended process for self-realization, or God realization, is the chanting of the holy names of the Lord. Of course, we know that Lord Krsna appeared about five thousand years ago and spoke the Bhagavad-gita. At the end of the Bh

अध्याय ग्यारह – परमाणु से काल की गणना (3.11)

1 भौतिक अभिव्यक्ति का अनन्तिम कण जो कि अविभाज्य है और शरीर रूप में निरूपित नहीं हुआ हो, परमाणु कहलाता है। यह सदैव अविभाज्य सत्ता के रूप में विद्यमान रहता है यहाँ तक कि समस्त स्वरूपों के विलीनीकरण (लय) के बाद भी। भौतिक देह ऐसे परमाणुओं का संयोजन ही तो है, किन्तु सामान्य मनुष्य इसे गलत ढंग से समझता है।

2 परमाणु अभिव्यक्त ब्रह्माण्ड की चरम अवस्था है। जब वे विभिन्न शरीरों का निर्माण किये बिना अपने ही रूपों में रहते हैं, तो वे असीमित एकत्व (कैवल्य) कहलाते ह

eParikrama 2020 Day 12 – Prema-sarovara

8156563674?profile=RESIZE_584xIn 2016, 2017 and 2018, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami took us to Prema-sarovara, where Radha and Krsna once met, and in a moment of separation, They shed so many tears that it formed the waters of this sarovara. Check out Maharaja’s full kirtans and lectures below, along with a few photos, at Prema-sarovara during Parikrama 2017 and Parikrama 2018.

अध्याय दस – सृष्टि के विभाग (3.10)

1 श्री विदुर ने कहा: हे महर्षि, कृपया मुझे बतायें कि लोकवासियों के पितामह ब्रह्मा ने भगवान के अन्तर्धान हो जाने पर किस तरह से अपने शरीर तथा मन से जीवों के शरीरों को उत्पन्न किया?

2 हे महान विद्वान, कृपा करके मेरे सारे संशयों का निवारण करें और मैंने आपसे जो कुछ जिज्ञासा की है उसे आदि से अन्त तक मुझे बताएँ।

3 सूत गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे भृगुपुत्र, महर्षि मैत्रेय मुनि विदुर से इस तरह सुनकर अत्यधिक प्रोत्साहित हुए। हर वस्तु उनके हृदय में थी, अतः वे प्रश्नों का एक एक कर

eParikrama 2020 Day 11 – Narada-kunda

8154198670?profile=RESIZE_584x

In 2018, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami took us to Narada-kunda, a place to reflect on Narada Muni, a pure Vaisnava, and the meaning of true bhakti. Check out Maharaja’s full kirtan and lecture below, along with a few photos, at Narada-kunda during Parikrama 2018.

Narada Muni desired to join the pastimes of Krsna as a gopi. He went to Kusuma-sarovara, took his bath there and transformed into Narada gopi. That, of course, was very convenient for him to enter the pastimes of the gopis. When Kr

Doing A Loop by Bhaktimarga Swami

8154136654?profile=RESIZE_400xMy cousin, Corry, her hubby, Eric, and our young Muslim friend, Victor, came together to talk spiritual. And it wasn’t a conversation devoid of opinions about the American election. Political opinions often tend to polarize people. It occupies many peoples’ lives. Spiritual conversations can do the same—occupy and polarize. At least our group succeeded in hitting common ground when talking stayed on the other-worldly thoughts.

अध्याय नौ – सृजन–शक्ति के लिए ब्रह्मा द्वारा स्तुति (3.9)

1 ब्रह्माजी ने कहा: हे प्रभु, आज अनेकानेक वर्षों की तपस्या के बाद मैं आपके विषय में जान पाया हूँ। ओह! देहधारी जीव कितने अभागे हैं कि वे आपके स्वरूप को जान पाने में असमर्थ हैं। हे स्वामी, आप एकमात्र ज्ञेय तत्त्व हैं, क्योंकि आपसे परे कुछ भी सर्वोच्च नहीं है। यदि कोई वस्तु आपसे श्रेष्ठ प्रतीत होती भी है, तो वह परम पूर्ण नहीं है। आप पदार्थ की सृजन शक्ति को प्रकट करके ब्रह्म रूप में विद्यमान हैं।

Today, Sri Rama-ekadasi, is a very special day. It is the first Ekadasi in the month of Kartik, or Damodara, and it has special significance as the day on which Srila Prabhupada completed his translation of Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, the most important book on the life and precepts of Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, which was originally published in seventeen volumes. Every devotee should read it. Actually, every devotee should read every book of Srila Prabhupada’s, from Sri Iso

Through the arched window

I see a couple crossing

The road of intensity

No pleasant walk night here
 

Through that lofty window

Men are thinning the tree

I don’t know why

I wish I did though
 

Through this broad window

I can view four homes

Sheltering good families

Our neighbours and friends

 

Through the part-frosted window

I admire binds in flight

Not destined for the south

They wish to stay here
 

Through that wood-framed window

I am blocked from the air

I hear leaves are rustling

And people

तीन सौ खरब वर्षों से अधिक तपस्या करने पर ब्रह्माजी को परमेश्वर का ज्ञान हुआ, जिससे वे अपने हृदय में उनका दर्शन कर सके।  (3.8.22-24)-श्रील प्रभुपाद!

अध्याय आठ – गर्भोदकशायी विष्णु से ब्रह्मा का प्राकट्य (3.8)

1 महा-मुनि मैत्रेय ने विदुर से कहा: राजा पुरू का राजवंश शुद्ध भक्तों की सेवा करने के लिए योग्य है, क्योंकि उस वंश के सारे उत्तराधिकारी भगवान के प्रति अनुरक्त हैं। तुम भी उसी कुल में उत्पन्न हो और यह आश्चर्य की बात है कि तुम्हारे प्रयास से भगवान की दिव्य लीलाएँ प्रतिक्षण नूतन से नूतनतर होती जा
