Ten Million Acharyas for Saving the World

While lecturing on the Caitanya Caritamrita in Mayapur on 6 April 1975 Srila Prabhupada told us that in the future ISKCON would have ten million acharyas. So where are we going to get these ten million acharyas? We have to become those acharyas and then train others how to also become acharyas. In this way Srila Prabhupada's prediction of ten million acharyas will come true, and there will be an inundation of peace, happiness, and prosperity all over the world.

On 13 September 2012 I was blessed by Radhakanta Prabhu, a teacher at ISKCON's Vrindavan Gurukula, with the opportunity to speak to the young gurukula students about how to become spiritually perfect by chanting and hearing the holy names of God. This was a most auspicious opportunity for me to pass on to the next generation whatever I have realized about the sublime, liberating process of Krishna consciousness.

Answer: How to Remain Blissful for All of Eternity

Sincerely pray to Lord Krishna, "My Dear Lord, whatever you want to do with me is okay. I am your eternal servant. You can punish or reward me as You like. But my dear beloved Lord I have one request that I humbly beg you to grant. Kindly bless me that I will never forget You."

If you will pray like and hold this mood always in your heart, you will never be in fear or anxiety ever again for all of eternity.

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

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.
