Blessed With Stress--The Secret of Unlimited Bliss

The more you accept stress and distress in the service of Lord Caitanya to assist Him in delivering the fallen souls of this world back to home, back to Godhead, the more you become blessed. And the more you become blessed, the more you become blissed. Therefore those who are Krishna conscious joyfully accept the stressful burden of attempting to deliver all of the fallen, conditioned souls of this material world back to home, back to Godhead. Even if they are not successful in doing so their perfection is guaranteed. And those who follow them will also become perfect.

Answers by Citing the Vedic Version:

Question: How the Illiterate Can Become Dear to Krishna?

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,
Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

My question is:
Lord Krishna says in the last section of the Gita that whoever preaches this sublime message of Gita to the devotees will become very dear to Him, and no one else could become more dear than he. But, what about the people who can't study scriptures effectively, such as the visually, or hearing impaired people, or the illiterate people, for instance. How can these poor people become dearmost to Lord Krishna?

Kindly clarify my doubt. Eagerly awaiting your answer.

Your servant,
Sushant

Answer: By Telling Others Who Krishna Is

Anyone literate or illiterate who has faith that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and informs others of this is most dear to Krishna. Blind people and deaf people are still able to communicate. And if they will use their communicative power to broadcast that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, they will also be the dearmost devotees of Lord Krishna.

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

Who is this Krishna?

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.
