Everyone is Hankering for Krishna

Everyone is hankering for love. In other words, everyone is hankering to be in a perfect loving relationship. Perfect loving relationship means a relationship which is completely devoid of any kind of cheating, duplicity or selfishness. Even though everyone is hankering for such perfect loving relationship, no one is able to find or achieve such a relationship in this world. Therefore everyone here is frustrated. Such an ideal perfect loving relationship can only be achieved by reviving our lost, loving relationship with Krishna or God. Therefore to achieve genuine happiness everyone in the world should become Krishna conscious.

Question: How to Not Fall Down?

Dear Srila Gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

I will pray to Krishna according to your guidance and excite my duty as a disciple as best as I can.

Dear Gurudeva, I am very much inspired and touched by Your message. Despite the physical pain, You remain super enthusiastic in sparking off a spiritual revolution. How can we follow Your footstep and become enthusiastic like You all the time?

Answer: Making Myself and the World Krishna Conscious

I personally do not see any meaning or purpose for my existence here and now in this world other than to follow these instructions of Srila Prabhupada to make myself fully Krishna conscious and to make the world Krishna conscious.

Srila Prabhupada did not abandon his revolutionary, deliver-the-world consciousness even when he was on his deathbed. In fact, in his final days in Vrindavan he stated:

"People are wondering if this old man is still alive. But they can know that I am still here beating on this big mridanga, and it is being heard all over the world."

So as his disciple it is my duty to have the same revolutionary spirit as exemplified by my most beloved Guru Maharaja, His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada. To faithfully follow in his footsteps I must always be enthusiastic to embrace the mood of pure bhakti within my heart and I must also always be enthusiastic to flood this darkened world with the brilliant light of Krishna consciousness. When I was a young brahmacari I was appreciated by Srila Prabhupada for my enthusiasm to make the world Krishna conscious. So now in my old age it is my duty to maintain this same mood up until my last dying breath, or even birth-after-birth if that is what the Lord desires for me.

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 ...
