There is a vast disparity from the milk production of northern breeds and the Zebu types of India. There are many types of cows in India broadly termed as Zebu however only a few are specifically noted for their milk productivity. Good milking Zebu cows (Sahiwal for example) can produce 2000 litres over a 305 day lactation. In the UK the average amount of milk for the same period is about 8,000 litres per year. ISKCON northern breed cows (predominantly Meusse-Rhine-Issel type) at Bhaktivedanta M

अध्याय पाँच – प्रजापति दक्ष द्वारा नारद मुनि को शाप (6.5)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: भगवान विष्णु की माया से प्रेरित होकर प्रजापति दक्ष ने पाञ्चजनी (असिक्नी) के गर्भ से दस हजार पुत्र उत्पन्न किये। हे राजन ! ये पुत्र हर्यश्व कहलाये।
2 हे राजन ! प्रजापति दक्ष के सारे पुत्र समान रूप से अत्यन्त विनम्र तथा अपने पिता के आदेशों के प्रति आज्ञाकारी थे। जब उनके पिता ने सन्तानें उत्पन्न करने के लिए उन्हें आदेश दिया तो वे सभी पश्चिमी दिशा की ओर चले गये।

The fact that people just love to hear stories is one reason why some of the Vedic codes were gradually transmitted in story form, like the epic histories Mahabharata and Ramayana and the Puranas. When such stories concern the pastimes of the Lord and His devotees, they are called lilas. Being labeled Lord Nrsimhadeva’s pujari in Mayapur, I have been asked to recount some stories in connection with Him, but unlike the sastras (scriptures), these “lilas” (pastimes) have no

अध्याय चार -- प्रजापति दक्ष द्वारा भगवान से की गई हंसगुह्य प्रार्थनाएँ (6.4)
1-2 वर प्राप्त राजा ने श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी से कहा: हे प्रभु! देवता, असुर, मनुष्य, नाग, पशु तथा पक्षी स्वायम्भुव मनु के शासन काल में उत्पन्न किये गये थे। आपने इस सृष्टि के विषय में संक्षेप में (तृतीय स्कन्ध में) कहा है। अब मैं इसके विषय में विस्तार से जानना चाहता हूँ। मैं भगवान की उस शक्ति के विषय में भी जानना चाहता हूँ जिससे उन्होंने गौण सृष्टि की।

A BBT devotee, Dvarkarani Dasi, received a call from a lady asking for the third volume of the big Krsna book trilogy that we used to distribute in the seventies.
Dvarkarani responded, “We don’t sell those anymore. We haven’t had them in print for four decades, because we have the whole Krsna book in one volume now. How did you get the first two volumes?”
The lady replied, “My son was at a thrift store and got the first two volumes. He read them and liked them. Then I read them, and my daughter
अध्याय तीन – यमराज द्वारा अपने दूतों को आदेश (6.3)
1 राजा परीक्षित ने कहा: हे प्रभु, हे श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी! यमराज सारे जीवों के धार्मिक तथा अधार्मिक कार्यों के नियंत्रक हैं, लेकिन उनका आदेश व्यर्थ कर दिया गया है। जब उनके सेवकों अर्थात यमदूतों ने उनसे विष्णुदूतों द्वारा अपनी पराजय की जानकारी दी जिन्होंने उन्हें अजामिल को बन्दी बनाने से रोका था, तो यमराज ने क्या उत्तर दिया?
2 हे महर्षि! इसके पूर्व यह कहीं भी सुनाई नहीं पड़ा कि यमराज के आदेश का उल्लंघन हुआ हो। इसलिए मैं सोचता हूँ कि लोगों को इस पर
His Grace Shyamasundar Jagannath Das Prabhu Passed Away in Mayapur.
After class, Mahavaraha Prabhu announced that one very dear Mayapurvasi, our godbrother, left his body today. His Grace Shyamasundar Jagannath Das was a professional accountant, took early retirement and served in that capacity in Mayapur.
He had attended darshan arati, gave the English Srimad-Bhagavatam class, went home, experienced chest pains and departed from this world. Prabhu said he will be sorely missed, such a humble an
अध्याय दो – विष्णुदूतों द्वारा अजामिल का उद्धार (6.2)
1 श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी ने कहा: हे राजन! भगवान विष्णु के दूत नीति तथा तर्कशास्त्र में अति पटु होते हैं। यमदूतों के कथनों को सुनने के बाद उन्होंने इस प्रकार उत्तर दिया।
2 विष्णुदूतों ने कहा: हाय! यह कितना दुःखद है कि ऐसी सभा में जहाँ धर्म का पालन होना चाहिए, वहाँ अधर्म को लाया जा रहा है। दरअसल, धार्मिक सिद्धान्तों का पालन करने के अधिकारीजन एक निष्पाप एवं अदण्डनीय व्यक्ति को व्यर्थ ही दण्ड दे रहे हैं।

The Mantra Lounge in Philadelphia, known for its book distribution, has been reaching out to people during the COVID-19 pandemic by feeding the homeless and others in need.
“When the pandemic began in Spring last year, we saw people start to lose their jobs pretty quickly, and remembered Srila Prabhupada’s instruction that no one within a ten-mile radius of any ISKCON center should go hungry,” says Mangal-Arti Dasi, president of the Mantra Lounge in Fishtown and affiliated Tit
A Dubai commuter, stuck in traffic, muses on how modern inventions have failed to improve the quality of our lives and have added to our distress.
It’s 7:00 P.M., and I’ve been driving for more than an hour. As I head home from work along Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai, I’m caught in the usual evening traffic jam. Like the car ahead of me, my car starts, stops, and starts again. While my car moves slowly, my mind races. I do mental mathematics with the number on the car plate in front of me. The tr
I wait by the storm till my driver will arrive.
So intense is the snow, I hope he’s still alive.
Wicked is the weather, the vision is obscure.
Fearless he appears, that is him for sure.
I’m grateful he penetrated the white wind, the storm.
And hopeful nature’s wrath comes down to some norm.
Behind the wheel is Nanda with nothing to impede.
Our mission — an essential — to address a dental need.
I was pensive for a moment; the world is just like that —
Perilous and precarious, we must admit t
अध्याय एक – अजामिल के जीवन का इतिहास (6.1)
1 महाराज परीक्षित ने कहा: हे प्रभु! हे श्रील शुकदेव गोस्वामी, आप पहले ही (द्वितीय स्कन्ध में) मुक्ति-मार्ग (निवृत्ति मार्ग) का वर्णन कर चुके हैं। उस मार्ग का अनुसरण करने से मनुष्य निश्चित रूप से क्रमशः सर्वोच्च लोक अर्थात ब्रह्मलोक तक ऊपर उठ जाता है, जहाँ से वह ब्रह्मा के साथ-साथ आध्यात्मिक (वैकुण्ठ) जाता है। इस तरह भौतिक जगत में जन्म-मृत्यु का चक्र समाप्त हो जाता है।
