One can measure a person’s character by their capacity to tolerate difficulties. We are living in a world of dualities. One cannot escape dualities. One must learn to adjust one’s consciousness and maintain integrity despite dualities. An apt example of this is a coin which has two sides: a head side and a tail side. If we want one side, we automatically must accept the other. They are inseparable. Distress is inseparable to happiness, pleasure and pain are inseparable, attraction-aversion, hono

Faith and Science

2515079308?profile=original

For decades, the usual academic hero was depicted as the detached, unbiased, value-free, objective observer revealing the secrets of nature to us. This view is now largely regarded as a pious myth. We can’t get away from it even if we tried: knowledge is state-specific. Our state of consciousness determines what we can know. Devamrita Swami elaborates on the yoga of subjectivity in a lecture given at New York University:

I’d first like to present to you the possibility that in your studies you’

Sri Navadvipa Mandala Parikrama (day 5)

     2515078986?profile=original                                                        

Dear devotees today Navadvipa Mandala Parikrama moved from the wonderful island of Jahnudvipa to Modadrumadvipa which corresponds to the process of dasyam, servitorship.

Before introducing today’s events we’d like to share how last evening H.G. Rajendranandana Prabhu enlightened everybody.

The topic of the lecture was: Lord Caitanya gives his mercy to the most fallen. He said: “When Krishna manifested His pastimes only very few peopl

   “With the help of our previous acaryas, vaisnava acharyas, Srila Prabhupada we have been brought back to Krsna's lotus feet”

What has been revealed by previous acharyas and Srila Prabhupada, the truth has been revealed. Krsna has been revealed, Krsna's dham has been revealed, Krsna's name has been revealed. Krsna's form has been presented, revealed unto us, His qualities, His pastimes. So we are brought so close to Vrndavana. We are brought in the midst of Krsna and cowherd boys. They could be

By Nitya Kishor Dasi

Maha Vishnu Swami joined the Parikrama Party on the 4th day. He is the ‘kirtan man’ .The devotees love him. He doesn’t stop kirtan for anything. Despite of the walking, so much energy is coming from the kirtan. The mrdangas vibrating very far in the fields attracting the mind of the villagers that come with their cameras to film the devotees. HH Bhakti Dhira Damodara Maharaj also led kirtan for the delight of the participants. Everybody loves Maharaj’s ecstatic kirtans.

Not Preaching? Think Again

2515079120?profile=original

By Kesava Krsna Dasa

Many devotees, who were previously active in preaching when living full time in the temples, feel that now – living outside and earning a living – those “good old days” remain just distant topics of nostalgia. Will those days ever return, they wonder? How many new generation devotees understand these things?

There is a general tendency for senior devotees who feel somewhat inactive to hark back to those days of jovial communal efforts, volunteered austerities, shared risks,

A Krsna conscious person will never blaspheme any person, any religious leader, who is trying to spread Krsna consciousness or God consciousness!
Srila Prabhupada: A Krsna conscious person will never blaspheme any person, any religious leader, who is trying to spread Krsna consciousness or God consciousness. In any country, in any religion, anyone who has tried to spread God consciousness to the people, they are all respectable persons. Those who are atheists, those who do not believe in God or

The living being is by nature pleasure seeking and this is so deeply intrinsic to his nature that once he starts seeking for pleasure, he cannot give up. Once the living being becomes misdirected, that drive for pleasure is so strong that he just does not give up, he keeps on looking because the material energy is a reflection of the spiritual energy which is endless so there are endless varieties. So the living being thinks, “Well, maybe one of these days, it will work.”

This is how maya captu
