Transforming Vision into Reality

Based on the authoritative descriptions given in the Vedic literature we can understand how in due course of time this entire planet will be transformed by this Krishna consciousness movement. Therefore we can envision a respiritualized world:

Where the entire human society lives together in perfect peace and harmony,

Where all the leaders are fully absorbed in Krishna consciousness,

Where nature reciprocates with the spiritually attuned consciousness of the human society by providing wonderful weather, clean air, clean water, along with ample fruits, grains, vegetables, dairy products, jewels, and gold for everyone's material prosperity,

Where crime, immorality, and terrorism are conspicuous by their absence,

Where people long healthy happy lives free of stress and anxiety without having to over-endeavor to earn their livelihoods,

Where the animals are well-fed and jolly and are free from the fear of being sent to the slaughterhouse,

And, where all the energy needs of the population are met in a 100% environmentally friendly way and everything is recycled so we do not turn this planet and its oceans into a gigantic garbage dump.

This vision can be transformed into reality if we will purely chant the holy names of the Lord:

Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare

Please join with us in chanting today as we engage in the most ecstatic process of turning this vision into reality.

How and when do we know that we are Krishna conscious?

Answer: It's Like Enjoying a Good Meal

It is like the satisfaction, nourishment, and relief from hunger you experience when you have a good meal. No one has to tell you that are getting these three things because you are personally experiencing them. Similarly when you factually awaken your dormant Krishna consciousness no one will have to certify this because you will personally experience how you are becoming detached from sense gratification, developing feelings of love for Krishna, and experiencing Krishna within everything.

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 ...
