Instant Nirvana

Today's "Thought for the Day" connects you with the lecture I gave in Lenasia, South Africa on Sunday 17 December 2017. As soon as you seriously take up the path of Krishna bhakti you are already liberated. In 1975 in New York a reporter asked Srila Prabhupada, "Swami, is there a chance that all your followers can realize the highest truth?" Srila Prabhupada replied, "They have already done. They have already done."

So if you, my dear readers, will seriously embrace right now within your heart of hearts that my one goal in life is to become a pure devotee of Krishna, you will immediately enter into a state of transcendental bliss that will never go away and will go on increasing for all of eternity.

So what are you waiting for? Do it night now and attain instant nirvana! Click on the link below to hear the lecture.

Question: Hearing from Atheists?

Hare Krishna, Srila Gurudeva,

Please accept my humble obeisances to you and Gurumataji!
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Hope you are having a wonderful preaching tour.

As you know the material world is predominated by atheistic culture that only promotes sense gratification and body consciousness but is not interested in God consciousness. Should devotees listen to nondevotees who have power/authority but are not God conscious? I know some people who are severely deluded by maya and stubbornly refuse to be God conscious. They also try to push their deluded views onto others including myself and hinder my Krishna consciousness. How to deal with such people?

Thank you for guiding me in the divine path of Krishna consciousness.

Your eternal servant,
Ajanta Rao

Answer: Avoid As Much As Possible

We don’t listen to such rascals. We avoid their association as
much as possible. Politely avoid them as much as possible.

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 ...

Misguided Fools Say that Masturbation is Healthy

Foolish modern day materialists recommend masturbation as follows: "Masturbation is a common activity. It’s a natural and safe way to explore your body, feel pleasure, and release built-up sexual tension. It occurs among people of all backgrounds, genders, and races.
