Resolution for All Conflicts

If you throw your rock into a pond and I throw my rock into a pond, the waves of your rock will clash with the waves of my rock. However, if we both throw our rocks into exactly the same place, there will be no clash. This is what we now need in our modern day society. We need to find out what is the common central point that we all can rally around.

There is a source for all that exists. We are all emanations from that original source. Therefore the original source of all energies is the common central point for everyone and everything. If we can simply re-harmonize ourselves with that source, we will all become peaceful and happy. It is therefore up to the world leaders to find out what is that original source and connect themselves and their followers with that original source. In the Bhagavad-gita Lord Sri Krishna reveals that He is that original source for all that exists.

Answers According to the Vedic Version

Question: Why Krishna Has Pastimes?...

Krishna is atmarama, in a self satisfied stage. But one of the primary reasons behind doing his pastimes is to increase his own pleasure. If Krishna is atmarama, then why he wants more pleasure?

Answer: To Please His Devotees...

The fact is that Krishna is atmarama; He is fully self-satisfied. He does not require anything else beyond Himself to be satisfied. He is fully self-sufficient because His very transcendental existence is total bliss. Therefore He is not in need of anything. But out of His unlimited kindness upon His parts and parcels, the living entities, to enable them to be fully happy, He allows them to serve Him in multi-varieties of ways: in neutrality, as a servant, as a friend, as a parent, or as a conjugal lover.

The Little Sparrow Who Conquered the Ocean

Image
In his purport to Bhagavad-gita, Chapter 6, Text 24 Srila Prabhupada wonderfully teaches us the power of determinations by telling us the story of the little sparrow who conquered the ocean: "As for determination, one should follow the example of the sparrow who lost her eggs in the waves of the ocean. A sparrow laid her eggs on the shore of the ocean, but the big ocean carried away the eggs on its waves. The sparrow became very upset and asked the ocean to return her eggs. The ocean did not even consider her appeal. So the sparrow decided to dry up the ocean. She began to pick out the water in her small beak, and everyone laughed at her for her impossible determination. The news of her activity spread, and at last Garuda, the gigantic bird carrier of Lord Visnu, heard it. He became compassionate toward his small sister bird, and so he came to see the sparrow. Garuda was very pleased by the determination of the small sparrow, and he promised to help. Thus Garuda at once asked t

Heart Melting Reunion with Amarendra and Gayatri

Image
On Friday 26 June 2015 I was blessed with the greatest good fortune of meeting with two of the dearest devotees of my entire life, His Grace Amarendra Prabhu and his good wife, Srimati Gayatri devi dasi. I am eternally indebted to these great souls for how much they helped me in my spiritual life when I was a young devotee. When I was young brahmacari monk in 1973 I joined with the two of them in Gainesville, Florida. We were a three person preaching center, and they were just like a mother and father to me. I had so many wonderful Krishna conscious experiences in their association that I can hardly begin to describe them here. But at least may it suffice for me to say for now that Gayatri taught me what it means to be a soft-hearted devotee of the Lord and she gave me my first cooking lesson, teaching me how to make cauliflower pakoras, and Amarendra taught me the art of how to preach strongly, intelligently, and coolly to defeat opposing arguments. Recently Gayatri almost died. But

He is the oldest of all while simultaneously maintaining the form of a 16 year old youth. He is all-attractive because he exceeds everyone in all of existence by possessing unlimitedly all the qualities that are attractive namely power, beautify, renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame. There is no one who equals or excels Him in the possession of these attractive qualities. This is why is accepted by all enlightened spiritualists as being God, the original source of all existence. The perfection of our existence is to re-establish our long forgotten loving relationships with Him.
