The Entire World Will Become Krishna Conscious

There is a prediction in the Caitanya Caritamrita, Adi Lila, Chapter 7, Verse 26: "The Krishna consciousness movement will inundate the entire world and drown everyone, whether one be a gentleman, a rogue or even lame, invalid or blind." Therefore we should make a Herculean effort during our lifetimes to see that this prediction comes true as soon as possible to relieve the suffering souls of this world from their horrific miseries. Even if we are not successful in making the entire world Krishna consciousness during our lifetimes, by such an effort our spiritual perfection will be guaranteed, and anyone who follows us will also attain the supreme perfection of going back to home, back to Godhead.

Question: Why Sincere But Facing Many Difficulties?

Srila Gurudeva, it is a fact that I have always tried to act to the best of my ability. Yet even after coming to Krishna consciousness there have been so many unpleasant happenings in my life many of which I would have never wanted. The mind is always doubtful that since I have acted sincerely in the past, yet the results I got weren't always desirable, so by trying to be sincere again I will again get some misfortunate happening in life. What to do?

Your Disciple

Answer: Intelligence is Also Required

One may sincerely but ignorantly make many stupid mistakes that cause him great difficulty in his life. Therefore sincerity alone is not sufficient. One also must have a little intelligence also regarding how to avoid doing and saying stupid, asinine things that get him into trouble. That intelligence comes from submissively hearing from Vedic authorities by rendering steady loving service to Guru, Vaisnavas, and 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 ...
