Nothing to Lose Except for Your Anxiety

By offering the result of all our activities to the Supreme Person, who is the source of all existence, we have nothing at all to lose except for our anxiety. Why? That Supreme Person is already the owner of everything anyway, and it is only due to false ego that we consider ourselves to be the owner of anything. In fact, it is this false sense of proprietorship stuck tightly within our hearts which has precisely been the cause of all of our anxieties since time immemorial. Therefore it is advised by great sages that we accept the truth of the Vedic aphorism, "nirmama" "nothing is mine," and conduct our lives in this way always acknowledging that the real owner of everything is that Supreme Person who has created everything and is maintaining everything. This will facilitate our entering victoriously into the realm of unlimited bliss, never to return to the land of misery ever again except for the purpose of reclaiming those who are still lost in delusion.​​​​​​​

Answers According to Vedic Wisdom

Question: Life Has Meaning?

I joined your emails after I was stopped in may town centre in the UK by a man offering books. He said he was a monk. I left with a book called Veda. He showed me another, the Bhagavad Gita which I declined and as soon as I got home wondered if I'd made a mistake. I feel that I need to get a copy of that book.

I enjoy reading your email each day.

My question would be: Do I chant as much as possible all day and study the Bhagavad Gita when I get one. Is this it? It makes me feel emotional in a good sort of way.

I'm not sure how I came across your course but am sort of happy I did.

Thank you,

Chanting and studying the Bhagavad-gita will lead you gradually to perfect spiritual awakening like Lord Buddha and Lord Jesus Christ. So do it as much as possible every day. You have within you an unlimited treasure of spiritual wealth, which far exceeds the value of anything within the material world. Chanting and study of the Bhagavad-gita will gradually bring youto the full realization of your unlimited treasure within.

Please stay in touch. Keep me posted how your journey progresses. I’ve been on this path for 47 years; so I can help you a lot.

You can get a copy of the Bhagavad-gita online at you nearest ISKCON center. You will find a directory here: ISKCON Centers in UK

I hope this meets you in the best of health and in an ecstatic mood.

Your ever well-wisher,
Sankarshan Das Adhikari

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
