Over the last century natural calamities comprising geological, hydrological, meteorological, health and space disasters have been significantly increasing in both, their frequency and ferocity. Natural disasters are a display of an awesome power immensely and fearfully greater than the human. They jolt us out of our complacent routines and impel us to think: Why do such natural disasters occur? What should we do at such times? How to prevent such recurrence?
According to the exemplary spiritual
Sri Krishna Kathamrita Bindu is always free from politics and institutional bashing or promotion. Just simply nectarean Krishna Katha!
Q. Does the name “Qohelet” mean something?
A. The name “Qohelet” is generally held to come from a Hebrew root meaning “to assemble” or “to gather.” And so “Qohelet” is often thought of as a leader of an assembly. Translators have called him “the Speaker,” “the Teacher,” “the Philosopher,” “the Debater,” “the Preacher,” and so on. The list of choices is long.

One of the most important of these ceremonial functions is called Urja-vrata. Urja-vrata is observed in the month of Karttika (October-November); especially in Vrndavana, there is a specific program for temple worship of the Lord in His Damodara form. “Damodara” refers to Krsna’s being bound with rope by His mother, Yasoda. It is said that just as Lord Damodara is very dear to His devotees, so the month known as Damodara or Karttika is also very dear to them.

Mukunda Swami’s health update.
Dear Devotees, Mukunda Maharaja is doing well and is scheduled for heart bypass surgery today or tomorrow. His hip surgery will be two to three days after that. The surgeon is very confident of a full recovery so our grave concerns of yesterday for him have been lifted enormously. I am sure this is due to the worldwide prayers from you.
We read some messages to Maharaja from Godbrothers and sisters, disciples and well-wishers and he was pleased to hear them.

October 26. ISKCON 50 – S.Prabhupada Daily Meditations.
Srila Prabhupada received a reply to his letter to Tirtha Maharaj in Calcutta. Prabhupada explained his hopes and plans for staying in America, but he stressed that his Godbrothers would have to give him their vote of confidence as well as some tangible support. His Godbrothers had not been working cooperatively. Each leader was more interested in maintaining his own building than in working with others to spread the teachings of Lord Ca

While at the Govardhana Eco Village, I needed some dental work, so Radha
Srila Prabhupada in Moscow.
Shyamasundar: Moscow. This, you have to remember and realize, was the height of the cold-war period, and there were threats going back and forth between America and Russia to drop hydrogen bombs at any moment. Leonid Brezhnev was in charge in Russia in those times, and it was a very paranoid and extremely repressive regime. No one was allowed in. But Prabhupada kept saying, “I want to go to Russia. I want to get behind this iron curtain and see what is going on. Th
