Spiritual Revolution Seeds

Our spiritual master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, has started in 1966 in New York the Krishna consciousness movement, a spiritual revolution to save the human society from imminent catastrophic collapse. In pursuance of his mission we are requesting all thoughtful, compassionate souls to join us in this movement for bringing about the total complete respiritualization of the human society. The success of this movement depends on how seriously we engage ourselves in planting and cultivating the seeds of Krishna bhakti all over the world in every town, village, hamlet, and community. In this regard we must always be enthusiastic, determined, and patient. Even though we would love to see the entire planet inundated by a tsunami of pure love of Godhead in our lifetimes, with such a heavily entrenched materialistic culture completely controlling the human population, it does not seem possible. But still we should undauntedly carry on with our mission of planting and cultivating the seeds of spiritual revolution everywhere because this is our duty. And who knows? By the inconceivable grace of Lord Sri Krishna the entire world civilization could at any day wake up from their sense gratification and decide to seriously pursue the pathway of Krishna consciousness. The more we plant and cultivate the seeds of Krishna bhakti everywhere, the more likely it will be that this supreme miracle of all miracles will manifest itself as the most amazing paradigm shift ever to be seen in human history.

Answers According to the Vedic Version:

Question: Krishna Doesn't Stop Us from Doing Bad?

I have a question. If Krishna knows the future that means He knows what is going to happen. It may be good or bad. So if we are going to do that bad deed, why doesn't He stop us from doing it?

Satyajeet

Answer: We Ignore His Mercy

Krishna has come to stop us but we are so stubbornly attached to our nonsense that we ignore His mercy and do the foolish thing anyway.

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
