Transcendental Bliss on a Cold, Nasty Evening

The evening of Monday 21 October 2013 in Kaunas, Lithuania was cold and nasty, not the kind of weather in which you would feel like venturing out of home to go anywhere. But by the sweet power of Krishna's holy names and devotee association those who attended the lecture/kirtan program at the Vedic Culture Center experienced great transcendental bliss. For those of you who don't know what is transcendental bliss, all we can say is that you have to try it, you have to taste it, if you want to know what it is. Find out where is your nearest ISKCON center. Go there and join with them in kirtan. And then stick around for the lecture so that you can dive deeply into the understanding of the transcendental science of God (Krishna). You'll love it!

Answer: Leverage Your Hopelessness Into Unlimited Bliss

Rest assured that your feeling hopelessness about life in this material world is a very positive step towards attaining the ultimate goal of unlimited knowledge, love, and bliss on the transcendental self-realization platform. Therefore there is no need to be discouraged. Leverage your hopelessness into unlimited bliss. Take your feeling of hopelessness about life in this world and use it as a spring board to catapult your consciousness into the transcendental sphere far beyond the miserable cycle of birth and death by taking shelter of the Hare Krishna mahamantra as the vehicle that will carry you beyond this world of hopelessness. As far as possible chant the Hare Krishna mahamantra 24 hours a day, and a new unlimitedly hopeful and happy self will emerge from the ashes of your present hopeless, unhappy self.

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

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.
