Unearthing the Divine Treasure

The supreme excitement is making Krishna consciousness available to the non-Krishna conscious world. Of course, everyone already possesses Krishna consciousness because it is their innermost nature. But it is currently in a non-manifest state.

In other words, the fortune of gold is buried within the pauper's back yard, but he does not know that it is there. He is currently suffering in poverty unnecessarily. Therefore, the greatest welfare work is to enlighten the mass of people regarding their unknown, un-tapped-into nature so they can fully unearth the divine treasure that is buried ever so deeply within them. This will enable them to become fully happy and excited about existence. That person who brings the supreme excitement to them will also naturally experience the supreme excitement at every minute.

Answers According to the Vedic Version

Question: How Can We Do Something Wrong?...

My question is: If everything what we do is as per the wish of God, then why is that we do something wrong in our life?

Shilpa

Answer: By Not Following the Bhagavad-gita...

It is not a fact that each and every thing we do is as per the wish of God. The Lord has fully revealed His wishes to us in the Bhagavad-gita. It is up to us whether or not we will act according the Lord's wishes. If we are intelligent enough to act according to His wishes by following the instructions He is giving us in the Bhagavad-gita, we will experience the sweetest, happiest, most peaceful life. If however, we choose to ignore His divine instructions, no matter how we may be situated in this material existence, we will be miserable.

The Little Sparrow Who Conquered the Ocean

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.
