Become Krishna Conscious Right Now

Without Krishna where is there any real happiness? Without Krishna where is there any real knowledge? Without Krishna where is there any real love? Without Krishna life has absolutely no meaning except that which we artificially, futilely try to give it. Being bereft of Krishna is nonsense. Being with Krishna is the only thing that makes any sense. Therefore the only logical course of action is to fully absorb ourselves in Krishna consciousness starting right now without any delay.

Question: How Capable is God?

How capable is God? Could God create a stone that is too heavy for Him to lift? Since an omniscient God would know in advance (and from all eternity) all that can happen, there appears to be no point at which such a God could make a genuine choice. Omniscience and omnipotence appear to be incompatible.

Answer: He is Inconceivably, Unlimitedly Capable

God is unlimitedly capable. This means that He can do anything conceivable or inconceivable within or beyond your logic. He does not have to answer to you or to a logic committee to get permission to engage in his inconceivable pastimes. He is not in any way restricted by what a human being can grasp with his tiny, little brain. Therefore God can create a stone that is too heavy for Him to lift and then go ahead and lift it. He has already shown this in His pastime of lifting Govardhan Hill.

It's a fact as He confirms in the Bhagavad-gita that God knows everything past, present, and future. And it is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gita that He exercises the power of choice regarding what He will eat and what He will not eat.

So in conclusion kindly note and follow the sublime guidance given in the Mahābhārata (Bhīsma-parva 5.22):

acintyāḥ khalu ye bhāvā
na tāṁs tarkeṇa yojayet
prakṛtibhyaḥ paraṁ yac ca
tad acintyasya lakṣaṇam

“Anything transcendental to material nature is called inconceivable, whereas arguments are all mundane. Since mundane arguments cannot touch transcendental subject matters, one should not try to understand transcendental subjects through mundane arguments.”

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
