Testimonial From Krishnapriya Devi Dasi 

Testimonial From Krishnapriya Devi Dasi
As a daily dose of insulin is required for a diabetic patient, similarly the Ultimate Self Realization Course give a daily dose of inspiration for the materially suffering souls to progress in the awakening of their dormant Krishna consciousness.

The answering of questions by Gurudeva removes the hurdles one has in his/her mind for their spiritual progress. The daily "Thought for the Day" shows us in a way which even a materialistically minded person can understand the path of how a surrendered soul to Krishna moves about in this material world with full dedication and vigor.

The Ultimate Self Realization Course has been a tool to fulfill Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mission. This course is instrumental to help the soul to reach its original destination i.e. back to home, back to Godhead.

Every day I wait for Thought for the Day to appear in my email, as it gives a daily dose of spiritual energy to pursue this wonderful path of Krishna consciousness.

Your Spiritual Daughter,
Krishnapriya devi dasi

Question: Difference Between Ego and False Ego?

I wanted to know if there's any difference between ego and false ego? One of my friends claims that ego and false ego are different, and if we don't have ego we are like non living entities. Is this true? He's asking for reference from Prabhupada's books as to where it is stated that ego and false ego are same.

Your humble servant,
Madhura

Answer: False Ego Means There Must Also Be Real Ego

Your friend is right. If ego itself was false, we would not need to say “false ego.” The term false ego tells us that there must also be something which is the true ego or the real ego. The conclusion is that ego means identity. Real ego is that I am a spiritual being, who is the eternal servant of Krishna, the origin and center of all existence. And false ego is when I think that I am this body and that I am the center of all existence.

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 ...
