Those Who Terrorize Will Be Terrorized

The world's present day leaders are totally baffled in their attempts to curb down terrorism. They do not have even the slightest clue how to stop it. What they do not realize is the law of karma. What goes around does indeed come around. As you sow, you shall most certainly reap. Because the world's nations have legalized mass terrorism against the innocent animals and unborn babies it is natural that terror will bounce back in their faces. Every day 156 million innocent animals are slaughtered so that their flesh can be eaten by those who lust after blood and 66 thousand innocent babies are murdered every day by abortion because people do not want to take the trouble to love their own children. The present ever-increasing proliferation of terrorism is a natural karmic result of all the terror that we are already committing. Therefore the first step in defeating terrorism is that we must stop engaging in it ourselves. Once we stop terrorizing others we will then have the necessary strength to factually put a stop to all forms of terrorism. If we can continue terrorizing the innocent babies and animals, there will eventually be a total breakdown of the social order into cannibalism and absolute anarchy.

Question: Chanting 16 Rounds Always the First Priority?

Dear Srila Gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to you.

In a previous email you wrote to me that in all situations and under all circumstances chanting my daily quota of 16 rounds should be my first priority.

I understand that this only applies until I am not working job. Suppose I take up a job then many times it my not be possible to do 16 rounds as first priority, say, I have night shifts or early morning shifts. I hope it does not constitute disregarding the spiritual master's instruction in that case?

Thank you for your very very potent lectures. Please bless me that I may develop taste for the Holy names in this life and never come back again, unless of course, Krishna desires.

Begging your mercy,
Your insignificant servant,
Visvanatha Das

Answer: Yes

You must always prioritize your chanting of at least 16 rounds of japa under all circumstances. I was working a night shift job. I would come home in the morning after work and go to sleep. Then I would wake up after six hours of rest and chant my 16 rounds as my first priority. There was plenty of time for me to complete at least 16 rounds before returning to work in the evening.

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 ...
