Why try to control the material energy? Why try to manipulate it? Why try to force the hand of destiny? Instead, just take it as it comes. And under each circumstance, just make the best of the situation. And if we do so, then surely we will get the mercy of the Lord!

By Lord’s Grace, we put in the association of Guru Maharaja and the twin Vaisnava brothers in Sri Mayapur dhama! Of course, the Mayapur won’t be the same without Pankajanghri Prabhu!
After Mangala arati, after performing the abhiseka inside Narasimhadeva altar, Pankajanghri Prabhu comes out and devotees sprinkle the tirtha on devotees, whoever come forward! Then he chants his japa, many kids are found of him, they just go behind him, he plays with them! But Ja
I took to the back alley as my walking route. Back alleys in our neighborhood are nothing foreboding. They are neat, tidy, safe and hardly a person you’ll see.
Now I’m not being antisocial by taking to the garage trail. I’m just trying to be obedient. The restrictions on Covid in Ontario are some of the most stringent in the world. On top of that whatever is being enforced as part of a lockdown, timeline wise, has now been extended to last into the month of May.

अध्याय ग्यारह – कृष्ण की बाल-लीलाएँ (10.11)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने आगे कहा: हे महाराज परीक्षित, जब यमलार्जुन वृक्ष गिर पड़े तो आसपास के सारे ग्वाले भयानक शब्द सुनकर वज्रपात की आशंका से उस स्थान पर गये ।
2 वहाँ उन सबने यमलार्जुन वृक्षों को जमीन पर गिरे हुए देखा किन्तु वे विमोहित थे क्योंकि वे आँखों के सामने वृक्षों को गिरे हुए तो देख रहे थे किन्तु उनके गिरने के कारण का पता नहीं लगा पा रहे थे ।
3 कृष्ण रस्सी द्वारा ओखली से बँधे थे जिसे वे खींच रहे थे। किन्तु उन्होंने वृक्षों को किस तरह गिरा लि
Dear devotees, friends and supporters;
My obeisances unto you. Srila Prabhupada ki jai!
As I am sure you will know, India is going through a very severe wave of Covid 19 at the present time. Many have referred to it as a tsunami as opposed to a wave and our ISKCON communities have been badly affected too.
The GBC members are deeply concerned by the suffering of our fellow Vaishnavas in India, Bangladesh and beyond.
Hundreds of devotees are now infected and some have left this world while others
Dear Devotees,

On August 4th, 2020, Prema Dhan was sitting alone in his office on a phone call, catching up with some work. Suddenly his desk started shaking and he almost fell off his chair. It felt like an earthquake. "I'll call you back," he said.
As he went outside to investigate, he saw many other people in a similar state of confusion. Within minutes, news of what had happened started to spread.
A warehouse containing ammonium nitrate had exploded in the port of Beirut, sending an epic

अध्याय दस - यमलार्जुन वृक्षों का उद्धार (10.10)
1 राजा परीक्षित ने श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी से पूछा: हे महान एवं शक्तिशाली सन्त, नारदमुनि द्वारा नलकूवर तथा मणिग्रीव को शाप दिये जाने का क्या कारण था? उन्होंने ऐसा कौन-सा निन्दनीय कार्य किया कि देवर्षि नारद तक उन पर क्रुद्ध हो उठे? कृपया मुझे कह सुनायें।
2-3 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे राजा परीक्षित, चूँकि कुबेर के दोनों पुत्रों को भगवान शिवजी के पार्षद होने का गौरव प्राप्त था, फलतः वे अत्यधिक गर्वित हो उठे थे। उन्हें मन्दाकिनी नदी के तट पर कैलाश
Loss after loss... the dependence of those suffering and rely more on you in their suffering

Miracle after miracle... sowing hope
Experiencing despair
The hurt of those who turn away or curse at him
Those who are relieved not lost in grief

Separation from Him
Those who seek Him only and chant His name

अध्याय नौ - माता यशोदा द्वारा कृष्ण का बाँधा जाना (10.9)
1-2 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने आगे कहा: एक दिन जब माता यशोदा ने देखा कि सारी नौकरानियाँ अन्य घरेलू कामकाजों में व्यस्त हैं, तो वे स्वयं ही दही मथने लगीं। दही मथते समय उन्होंने कृष्ण की बाल-क्रीड़ाओं का स्मरण किया और गीत बनाते हुए उन्हें गुनगुनाकर आनन्द लेने लगीं।
3 केसरिया-पीली साड़ी पहने, अपनी स्थूल कमर में करधनी बाँधे माता यशोदा मथानी की रस्सी खींचने में काफी परिश्रम कर रही थीं, उनकी चुड़ियाँ तथा कान के कुण्डल हिल-डुल रहे थे और उनका पूरा शरीर

अध्याय आठ – भगवान कृष्ण द्वारा अपने मुख के भीतर विराट रूप का प्रदर्शन (10.8)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे महाराज परीक्षित, तब यदुकुल के पुरोहित एवं तपस्या में बढ़े चढ़े गर्गमुनि को वसुदेव ने प्रेरित किया कि वे नन्द महाराज के घर जाकर उन्हें मिलें।
2 जब नन्द महाराज ने गर्गमुनि को अपने घर में उपस्थित देखा तो वे उनके स्वागत में दोनों हाथ जोड़े उठ खड़े हुए। यद्यपि गर्गमुनि को नन्द महाराज अपनी आँखों से देख रहे थे किन्तु वे उन्हें अधोक्षज मान रहे थे अर्थात वे भौतिक इन्द्रियों से दिखाई पड़ने वाले सामान्
