I was convicted and sentenced to ‘life plus 60 years in prison! I never stopped chanting the entire time I was there, I was strong in Kṛṣṇa Consciousness up until I heard them say ‘guilty’ and sentence me, then my entire mind, thoughts, actions ‘FROZE UP.’ Although I knew that the ENTIRE trial process was UNLAWFUL. I couldn’t chant, eat, or sleep for days. It took some Christian guy to remind me of the story of Job in the Bible to bring me back to reality. I accept Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personali

More so than us becoming attracted to Krsna, let us do something that attracts Krsna to us!

Devotional service is about attracting Krsna. It is not just about us getting attracted to Krsna. In the beginning, we think that devotional service is about us becoming attracted to Krsna but we can think of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur, who was standing a bit off to the side for the darshan in the temple of Sri Sri Gandharvika Giridhari in his head headquarters in Mayapur. He did not actuall

It was sweet going from home to home with Savyasacin, not by foot, but in his red Jeep, following the caravan headed by Jagannatha deities. It is the Covid version of the Chariot Fest and, because it is relatively small scale, executing this mini party is very doable. All that is required are mantras, rituals, musical instruments, some satvic food—gas in your tank—companions, and a lot of bhakti. Today it took place in the burbs of Milton and tomorrow it’ll be Kingston. With the heat it felt lik

 1 भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने कहा— मैंने इस अमर योगविद्या का उपदेश सूर्यदेव विवस्वान को दिया और विवस्वान ने मनुष्यों के पिता मनु को उपदेश दिया और मनु ने इसका उपदेश इक्ष्वाकु को दिया।

2  इस प्रकार यह परम विज्ञान गुरु-परम्परा द्वारा प्राप्त किया गया और राजर्षियों ने इसी विधि से इसे समझा। किन्तु कालक्रम में यह परम्परा छिन्न हो गई, अतः यह विज्ञान यथारूप में लुप्त हो गया लगता है।

The greatness and sweetness of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and the right mood of approaching it

by Gauranga Darshan Das

A multitalented person could do many things alone and even simultaneously. But have you ever heard of a book that does multitasking like this? Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam does. Because Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is also a person, non-different from the
Supremely powerful Person Kṛṣṇa.

God descends to save the devotees, destroy the demons and reestablish dharma (BG 4.8). For these purposes, He appears as Ma

The Mysterious Synergistic Relationship of Radha, Krishna & Aum and The Demigo

The sraddha-bindu, the drop of faith that we get from the devotees, is the greatest possession of a devotee. The main thing about a devotee is his deep faith in Krsna. As a result, he has no faith in anything else. Having strong faith in Krsna means that we lose our faith in the material energy. We do not believe anymore that the material energy will bring us the greatest benefits. No, when we have sraddha-bindu, when we have a drop of faith in Krsna consciousness, then all other faith will be d

The life of a monk is so much about building bridges and closing gaps. The endeavour one takes is to connect jivas to the Divine; bringing two worlds together.

I have always admired bridges—those who engineer, those who construct and also those who repair them—while on my walking travels. I had a flashback of men at work on bridges over the Fraser, in Hope, British Columbia, in the rain.

There are many kinds of bridges. One is for the mouth, as in dentures. At noon, over lunch, my temporary bri

Dear ISKCON leaders and devotees,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

“Unless we take care of the books and preach and read ourselves, understand the philosophy, this Hare Krsna will be finished within few years.” (Los Angeles, 12 Dec 1973)

2 आपके व्यामिश्रित (अनेकार्थक) उपदेशों से मेरी बुद्धि मोहित हो गई है। अतः कृपा करके निश्चयपूर्वक मुझे बतायें कि इनमें से मेरे लिए सर्वाधिक श्रेयस्कर क्या होगा?

Recenly a friend gave a Bhagavad Gita to a person named Donald. From the beginning of his reading he liked it so much. Every day he was reading for two hours. He had smoked for thirty years but stopped, then he had stopped eating meat, and he felt a sense of being purified, all from reading Srila Prabhupada's books.

He contacted the devotees in Columbus, Ohio, and asked whether there was any way to get more books. It was during the pandemic so he wasn't working, meaning he was short of money. H

2 श्रीभगवान ने कहा— हे अर्जुन तुम्हारे मन में यह कल्मष आया कैसे? यह उस मनुष्य के लिए तनिक भी अनुकूल नहीं है, जो जीवन के मूल्य को जानता हो। इससे उच्चलोक की नहीं अपितु अपयश की प्राप्ति होती है।
