Severe Drought Ravages Texas
Drought and wildfires have led the US Department of Agriculture to declare the entire state of Texas a natural disaster area, Every day here in Austin the temperature has been rising beyond 105 degrees (41 degrees Celsius). We are experiencing skies that are almost completely cloudless and seeing no hope of rain any time soon. How ironic it is that just several months there was excessive rain and disastrous flooding of the Mississippi river just a few hundred miles east of here.
One could wonder why there is such an imbalance in nature and if the scientists can do something about it. Can they make it rain where it is needed and not rain where it is not needed? Some scientists have promised us immortality. We wonder how they can do this when they can't even get us some rain.
While material science has progressed in so many ways, it has not advanced to point of being able to cause rain to fall. But why should we worry about reinventing the wheel? There is already a science how to get the rain to fall. This is described in the Bhagavad-gita by the supreme scientist, Lord Sri Krishna:
annād bhavanti bhūtāni
parjanyād anna-sambhavaḥ
yajñād bhavati parjanyo
yajñaḥ karma-samudbhavaḥ
"All living bodies subsist on food grains, which are produced from rains. Rains are produced by performance of yajña [sacrifice], and yajña is born of prescribed duties."
--Bhagavad-gita 3.14
We can easily bring the proper amount of rain everywhere by the massive performance of public sankirtana (the congregational chanting of the holy names of God) throughout the world. May everyone engage regularly in the glorification of the holy names of God according to their own scriptures in every town and village of the world. This will bring sufficient rain and solve all the problems of the modern society.

Question: Is the Disciplic Succession Broken?
Since Srila Prabhupada did not name a successor does mean that the disciplic succession is broken?Francisco
Answer: It's Going Quite Strong & Growing Profusely
If you think that Srila Prabhupada did not name a successor, you are mistaken. The fact is that Srila Prabhupada said that all of his disciples who are strictly following him would be his successors, and in obedience to his divine instructions many of them are doing just that. Therefore the disciplic succession is not broken. Indeed, is going quite strong and growing profusely.Sankarshan Das Adhikari
