There Is No Greater Good Fortune

In this material world everyone is looking for the greatest pleasure at every minute. But because they are looking in the wrong places they are never successful in finding it. However, those who are most fortunate to have come into contact with a bona fide spiritual master are blessed with the benediction of pure spiritual bliss, which becomes fully awakened when one learns from the spiritual master the art of fully dedicating himself fully to Krishna or God in all times, places, and circumstances with his every thought, word, and deed. This is why the bona fide spiritual masters engage in vigorous spiritual propaganda work all over the world so that everyone has to opportunity to learn this ultimate science of how to always relish the supreme happiness within their hearts at every moment. The conclusion is that there is no greater good fortune in all of existence than coming in contact with bona fide spiritual master and taking his teachings very seriously.

Answers According to Vedic Wisdom

Question: Earliest Evidence of Hinduism?

What is the earliest historical evidence in the history of Hinduism?

Mateus Silva Genari

Answer: 155 Trillion Years Ago

Hindu is a recent term coined by our Muslim brothers. The actual term is Sanatana-Dharma, the religious system based on the Vedic scriptures. That religion is existing eternally even before the creation of our present material universe. If you would like to put a historical number on it, this religious system goes back 155 trillion years at the time when our present universe was created. This is confirmed in the Vedic scriptures.

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
