Something's Amiss If You're Not Tasting the Bliss

There's something amiss if you are not tasting the bliss because the constitutional position of every living being is to swim constantly in an ocean of unlimited happiness. Sadly at the present moment 99.999% of the human population is miserable due to ignorance of the actual nature of the self. They are foolishly misidentifying themselves with their material bodies instead of realizing their eternal, all-blissful spiritual natures as spirit-soul servants of God. It's really quite a pity. Something must be done about this. Out of compassion on these poor suffering fellows we must teach them how to awaken their dormant Krishna consciousness. We want them to taste the bliss too.

Question: Krishna Present Simultaneously in Both Worlds?

My son asked me this question and I don't think I have a satisfactory answer so if you can please enlighten me.

Q - If Krishna comes personally to Earth during Krishna Bhauma Lila and also as Caitanya Mahaprabhu, is Krishna absent from Spiritual world at those times when He is on this earth or any other planet?

The Srimad Bhagavatam and Caitanya Caritamrita say that Krishna is eternally present in Goloka. So how do we understand this? Does Krishna expands into another Krishna like He did in Dwarka for the queens?

We also read in purports by Prabhupada that Vishnu was the one present in Mathura as Krishna never leaves Vrindavana.

Your Servant,

Bharat Vyas

Answer: Yes, By His Mystic Potency

Krishna is in both worlds simultaneously. Just as He expanded a separate manifestation of Himself for each queen in Dwarka, He can simultaneously be in the spiritual world and the material world at the same time. This is a tiny spark of the inconceivable mystic potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

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?

Image
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.
