We’re being devoured by a tigress

The Ultimate Self Realization Course To Free You from Confusion and Anxiety  and Bless You with Unlimited Bliss A Dangerous Tigress We Are Being Devoured by a Tigress Thought for Day--18 January 2026 Srila Prabhupada wonderfully writes in his introduction to Bhagavad-gita As It Is: Every one of us is full of anxieties because of this material existence. Our very existence is in the atmosphere of nonexistence. Actually, we are not meant to be threatened by nonexistence. Our existence is eternal. But somehow or other we are put into asat. Asat refers to that which does not exist. He further explains: Lord Kṛṣṇa descends specifically to reestablish the real purpose of life when man forgets that purpose. Even then, out of many, many human beings who awaken, there may be one who actually enters the spirit of understanding his position, and for him this Bhagavad-gītā is spoken. Actually, we are all swallowed by the tigress of nescience, but the Lord is very merciful upon living entities,...

Hare Krishna is where it’s at

The Ultimate Self Realization Course To Free You from Confusion and Anxiety  and Bless You with Unlimited Bliss   Srila Prabhupada Launches ISKCON in New York's Tompkins Square Park Hare Krishna is Where It's At Thought for Day--16 January 2026 In the lingo of the countercultural youth — the hippies, ten thousand of whom in the 1960s and 1970s became Śrīla Prabhupāda’s first disciples — we could say, “Hare Kṛṣṇa is where it’s at. You dig?” This means: “Do you understand that Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the perfection of existence?” Śrīla Prabhupāda was very expert in preaching according to time, place, and circumstance. For example, when he first came to preach Krishna consciousness in San Francisco, his center was in Haight-Ashbury, the hippie neighborhood. When a reporter asked him about his center, just see how he replied: Reporter: "Downstairs, you said you were inviting everyone to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Does that include the Haight-Ashbury Bohemians and beatniks?" Pra...

Know Krishna, Know Everything

Image
The Ultimate Self Realization Course To Free You from Confusion and Anxiety  and Bless You with Unlimited Bliss Krishna with a Calf Know Krishna, Know Everything No Krishna, Know Nothing Thought for Day--15 January 2026 In the Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad 1.3 we are blessed with this sublime wisdom: yasmin vijñāte sarvam idaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavati "If one knows the original cause, the subordinate causes are automatically known." Stated simply this means that if you know Krishna you know everything. The opposite of this is that if you don't know Krishna, even though you may be very proud of your material knowledge, you don't know anything, you know nothing. One may argue that knowing everything means that he must be able to know how many grains of sand are on the beach. This is not what is meant. He knows everything in the sense that he knows the pure essence of everything. He knows that the sand is the emanated energy of Krishna. In this way he perfectly understands the utility of t...

How Lord Jagannatha Became Manifested

The Ultimate Self Realization Course To Free You from Confusion and Anxiety  and Bless You with Unlimited Bliss Jagannatha, Baladeva, and Subhadra Here's How Lord Jagannatha Became Manifested Thought for Day--14 January 2026 It seems mysterious how Krishna manifests Himself in the form of Lord Jagannatha. My beloved senior Godbrother, His Grace Sriman Achyutananda Prabhu, has very nicely described in his book Blazing Sadhus how this happened. His Royal Highness Sri Krishna, the Lord of the opulent city of Dwarka, the Lord of the universe, is always longing for His days in Braj Vrindavan when He played with the cowherd boys and His gopis. Once Rohini, the mother of Balaram, described the Braj pastimes to the queens in Dwarka. She told them to shut all the doors because these tales are very confidential and if Krishna hears them He may run away to Vrindavan. Krishna, Balaram, and Subhadra listened outside the door, side by side. Hearing about Braj, They melted in ecstasy. Their arms ...

Don’t be misled by false propaganda

Image
The Ultimate Self Realization Course To Free You from Confusion and Anxiety and Bless You with Unlimited Bliss Our Most Beloved Lord Sri Krishna Don't Be Misled by False Propaganda Thought for Day--13 January 2026 There is a growing trend within ISKCON to accept hearsay as authoritative evidence— “so-and-so said this, so-and-so said that,” etc., etc., and therefore it is assumed to be authoritative. This tendency is especially evident in the new definition circulating within ISKCON regarding the meaning of the vow of “no illicit sex” that we take at the time of initiation. The inherent fallacy of relying on hearsay is very nicely illustrated in the following story of Sargal Singh, as told by Jayadvaita Swami in his book Srila Prabhupada’s Kirtan Standards. A man in the village had shaved his head, as one does when a relative dies, and was lamenting, “Sargal Singh is dead! Sargal Singh is dead!” “Sargal Singh is dead?” asked the local grocer. “Yes, he’s dead,” the man sobbed. “He wa...
