Krishna is Absolutely Sublime

There is no one or nothing more wonderful, more sublime in all of existence than Krishna or God. Krishna must be sublime because He is the absolute source of all sublimity. Whatever is sublime or wonderful in all of existence is so only because Krishna is investing some portion of His unlimited sublimity in that person or thing. A nice example in this connection is the heavenly, soothing rays of the moon. Krishna states in the Bhagavad-gita that He is the light of the moon.

Question: Why God is So Cruel?

Please accept my humble obeisances. One of my friends has been going through a really tough time. She has lost many family members in last year. Recently, her boyfriend passed away in car accident. She is heart broken and very sad. She asked me, "Why did God take him so early. If I had been married to him, he would have lived a long time. Why God is so cruel to take him at the age of 28?"

Please explain how do I help her to come out from difficult and sad situation.

Your Servant,
Roshan

Answer: God Is Unlimitedly Kind

Please convey our condolences to this poor suffering soul. We are most sorry that she is going through such hell in her life. Our desire is that everyone should be happy and never tormented by any kind of anxiety. Kindly assure her that God is not cruel. Everything that is going on in all times, places, and circumstances is Krishna's unlimitedly sweet mercy to induce us to return to our actual homes in the unlimitedly brilliant all-blissful spiritual sky. Please inform her that none of these departed souls are dead. They have simply, according to their karma, traveled on to their next destination according to their desire of how they would like to enjoy life.

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
