Submit to Krishna or Submit Your Resignation

The current leaders of the world are completely incompetent and unfit to be in their leadership positions. The only person who is qualified to be a leader is that person who is capable of delivering his dependents from the cycle of birth and death. Anyone in a leadership position who is not able to deliver his dependents from birth and death should immediately step down from his position or take training how to become qualified to save his dependents. If they are willing to take the training, we have Prabhupada's teachings with which we can perfectly enlighten them. If they are not interested, they should resign from their posts. So the choice is theirs: submit to Krishna or submit your resignation.

Question: How to Be Free of Anxiety?

Dear Guru Maharaja:

Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I have a few questions in my mind that require clarification.

Why do people worry about the future? We have to make plans about the future life, but most often plans are associated with anxiety. How to plan without anxiety?

If we plan services for Krishna, will we be in anxiety? Why?

Your humble servant,

Jeffrey

Answer: See Everything as Krishna's Arrangement

People worry about the future because they are not Krishna conscious. A Krishna conscious person never worries about the future. Rather he is very excited about the future because he knows that his future will unfold according to the amazing merciful arrangement of Lord Sri Krishna.

Planning service for Krishna is the cause of transcendental bliss. It is only when we make plans for sense gratification that we are in anxiety. Even if a devotee is forced by circumstances beyond his control to alter his plans, he takes everything as the perfect arrangement of Krishna. He tolerates what is beyond his control, takes command of what is within his control, and is intelligent enough to know the difference.

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 ...
