Many sacred events are taking place; the worship of param guru, Bhaktisiddhanta, the opening of a museum in honour of the Founder/Acharya, Prabhupada, and many more features of this year’s festival.  In the meantime, our cultural events keep going on, especially the drama.  The more unfortunate thing is some of these important features are clashing with each other.

Srila Prabhupada: Where does Darwin begin?

Disciple: He begins in the ocean. He says that some fishlike animal climbed out of the ocean and began to breathe the air.

Srila Prabhupada: Then where did the ocean come from?

Disciple: He doesn’t say.

Srila Prabhupada: Then his theory is not perfect.

Disciple: Scientists say the

On Friday, August 13, 1965, a small, beat-up cargo ship set sail from Calcutta. In addition to the crew, one passenger, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami, disembarked in New York City with 40 rupees, a three-month visa, and a mission to bring Krishna consciousness to the Western world.

For cleaning up a ring of sin – nothing simple
He received a vengeful bullet i
