Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." How to Become Fearless In this world where there is danger at every step those who take shelter of Lord Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, are totally free from fear. In this connection Srila Prabhupada writes as follows in The Teachings of Queen Kunti: We may have many enemies who may be very powerful fighters, but if we remain under the protection of Kṛṣṇa, no one can do us any harm. Rakhe kṛṣṇa māre ke māre kṛṣṇa rakhe ke. "He whom Kṛṣṇa protects, no one can kill, but if Kṛṣṇa wants to kill someone, no one can give him protection." For example, suppose a very rich man is suffering from disease. He may have a first-class physician, medicine, and hospital available for him, but still he may die. This means that Kṛṣṇa desired, "This man must die." Therefore, the so-called protective methods we have...

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Heading Back to Vrindavana Now after a brief two nights stopover in South Africa we are heading back to Sri Vrindavan Dhama, our real home here n this material world. Since Srila Prabhupada said that Vrindavan is his home, we, as his children and grand children also accept Vrindavan as our home. Here in this sacred place 5,000 years ago Lord Sri Krishna displayed a sample of His pastimes in the spiritual world. This is where Srila Prabhupada before coming to American and starting ISKCON.

In what mood does a devotee pray to the Lord? _10 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Image
Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." In What Mood Does a Devotee Pray to Lord? Srila Prabhupada answers this question as follows in his purport to Srimad Bhagavatam, Fourth Canto, Chapter 20, Text 34; "When a devotee prays to the Lord, it is not to ask for material benefits but to ask the Lord for His favor; he prays that he may be engaged in the service of the Lord's lotus feet birth after birth. Lord Caitanya therefore uses the words mama janmani janmani, which mean "birth after birth," because a devotee is not even interested in stopping the repetition of birth. The Lord and the devotee appear in this material world birth after birth, but such births are transcendental. In the Fourth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā the Lord informed Arjuna that both He and Arjuna had undergone many, many births previously, but the Lord remembered everything about them wh...

Here's a most wonderful Srimad Bhagavatam verse. _9 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." A Most Wonderful Srimad Bhagavatam Verse Here's the verse I spoke from (SB 4.20.33) on 8 October 2024 in Mauritius. It is so wonderful that I just to share it with you all, tat tvaṁ kuru mayādiṣṭam apramattaḥ prajāpate mad-ādeśa-karo lokaḥ sarvatrāpnoti śobhanam "My dear King, O protector of the citizens, henceforward be very careful to execute My orders and not be misled by anything. Anyone who lives in that way, simply carrying out My orders faithfully, will always find good fortune all over the world." In this material world at every step we experience good fortune or bad fortune. But for one who is fully absorbed in devotional service to Lord Sri Krishna at every moment he experiences unlimited good fortune. Therefore let us do the intelligent thing of always being fully absorbed in Krishna consciousness. Sankars...

We should not cheat ourselves. _8 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." We Should Not Cheat Ourselves We can be enjoying a life of unlimited bliss, but if we serve what our mind and senses crave by doing what titillates them instead of doing what we know is best for us we are embracing trouble. We are cheating ourselves. So instead of serving our minds and senses let us follow what Lord Krishna and the great sages advise us to do. This will guarantee our liberation from the cycle of birth and death. It will clear our pathway back to our original home in the spiritual sky, where no one ever dies.

Our modern day civilization is doomed. _7 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Image
Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Our Modern Day Civilization is Doomed Flying from Johannesburg, South Africa to Mauritius on 5 October 2024 it was very disturbing for me to notice the video that the passenger across the aisle from me was watching. It showed repeatedly scenes of one human being brutally tortured by another human being. This is what many people nowadays pay money to enjoy watching. This a clear indication that our modern day society is on the verge of total collapse. All the modern facilities that we are now enjoying are there because of our previous pious activities. But now due to an enormous increase of sinfulness, such as cow killing and baby killing, these facilities will be taken away and our modern day civilization will completely collapse. The Hare Krishna movement is the only hope for preventing the complete destruction of the modern day w...
