Answers According to the Vedic Version

Question: Who Made Us Wish to Be Away from Krishna?

You say that God created this universe because of 'our' desire to come here. But, we say all actions here are preplanned by God and everything happens on His will. So then where does this 'our' desire come from? Who makes us think that we wish to be away from Krishna? Again, it was His plan and His will. I just don't get this. If everything is His will then how does the karma theory work?

It is God's plan how Kali yuga will be. So then why at all are we trying to request people to take into Krishna consciousness. Aren't we trying to to go against the wind? It is He under who decides who wants to become His devotees. So where does the 'I' factor come from? Can you please make me understand this?

haribol!

Anu

Answer: We Did

It is not true that everything is preplanned by God. He gives us the free will to decide what we want to do.

Nobody other than our foolish selves thought to enjoy separately from Krishna. This was not Krishna's plan, nor Krishna's will. This was our foolishness.

Now we have to hear from the bona fide spiritual master and get back to our original enlightened position in the transcendental world.

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
