Prayer for World Deliverance

Oh my dear Lord Krishna, when will that day come when the entire world will be delivered from nescience by the sweet power of your divine holy names? When will that day come when the world is no longer disturbed by the sinful activities of demoniac men? When will all the cows, women, child (including the unborn ones) be protected from the torture of wicked men? My heart is greatly tormented to see the mad rampage of this materialistic age as it systematically more and more destroys the God consciousness of the human population. My dear Lord, I am humbly begging for your mercy that the powerful spiritual revolution, the Krishna consciousness movement, started by You in Your form of Lord Caitanya and spread world wide by my beloved spiritual master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, may now gain sufficient momentum to completely inundate this universe with pure Krishna bhakti as soon as possible.

Answer: 1st and 2nd Class Devotees Don't Fall

It is a fact that the more one advances in Krishna consciousness he is less likely to fall down. This is why Srila Prabhupada explains in his purport to Bhagavad-gita 9.3 that the 2nd class and 1st class devotees do not fall down. It is only the 3rd class devotees who sometimes fall down. The 2nd class and 1st class devotees do not fall down because they have firm faith in the words of guru and Krishna.

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

Who is this Krishna?

Krishna is not a myth, nor is He an ordinary historical personality. He is the Supreme All-Attractive Personality of Godhead. He is the oldest of all while simultaneously maintaining the form of a 16 year old youth. He is all-attractive because he exceeds everyone in all of existence by possessing unlimitedly all the qualities that are attractive namely power, beautify, renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame. There is no one who equals or excels Him in the possession of these attractive qualities. This is why is accepted by all enlightened spiritualists as being God, the original source of all existence. The perfection of our existence is to re-establish our long forgotten loving relationships with Him.
