Traveling to Spread the Rays of the Benediction Moon

On 3 November 2018 we traveled 138 kilometers from Kaunas, Lithuania from Utena, Lithuania to spread the soothing rays of the benediction moon of Krishna consciousness in that dark corner of the world. In every corner of the world people are suffering due to their lack of Krishna consciousness. Therefore the highest welfare activity is the distribution of Krishna consciousness. About 35 people showed up to hear my lecture. We started the program with a super-ecstatic kirtan, and many of the people chanted with us getting the golden opportunity to relish Krishna's sweet, sweet holy names.

Answers According to Vedic Wisdom

Question: ​​​​​​​How to Fully Surrender?​​​

Hare Krishna, dear Gurudeva!
Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Your Divine Grace.
All glories to all vaishnavas.

My mind is constantly and desperately searching for shelter amongst other older vaishnavas. But this brings me a great distress and suffering. Please, kindly enlighten me how to fully surrender and accept the shelter of guru and Krishna.

Thank you,
Bhaktin Ugne

Answer: Accept Guru's Order as Your Very Life and Soul

From: Kaunas, Lithuania

My Dear Bhaktin Ugne,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

You need to pick one person who will be your guru and fully surrender to him by accepting his instructions as your very life and soul. Then by his grace you can associate with many Vaisnavas in a state of perfect peace of mind.

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
