How to Save the World

The world is in dire need of being saved. Of this there is no doubt. Every day it is gradually becoming more and more demoniac, miserable, and hellish. So how to save it? There is only one way to do this, and that is one person at a time. So who do we start with? We obviously have to start with ourselves. Physician, heal thyself. If we aren't saved, how can we can save others. How do we save ourselves? We have to surrender to Krishna through the medium of His pure devotee, the bona fide spiritual master. In this way we become saved. And how do we save others? We have to share with them the wonderful mercy and teachings of Krishna. If we approach many, many people to give them Krishna consciousness, a few will take interest and out of them even fewer still will take Krishna consciousness seriously by surrendering to Krishna and also taking up the world deliverance mission. In this way, if we keep presenting this sublime science to as many people as possible, eventually the Krishna consciousness movement will be universally recognized as the leading source of education for the entire world, and the world will indeed be saved,

Question: Why Krishna Doesn't Show His Light?

Krishna is my father. Why doesn't He show me His light?

Ritesh

Answer: We Have to Open Our Eyes

Krishna is showing us His light. But the difficulty is that our eyes are tightly closed shut. Now we must open our eyes so that we can see Krishna's light. But even more importantly, we must now open our eyes fully so that we can see Krishna Himself in His full splendor. The process for opening our eyes is that we must now fully surrender ourselves to Lord Sri Krishna. Only then will He and His light be revealed to us. We cannot demand to see God. We must instead fully surrender to Him. In this way He will be very pleased with us and will very mercifully reveal Himself to us.

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
