When the World Becomes Krishna Conscious

We are hankering for and working for that day when Krishna consciousness will be the world religion. When our movement reaches this stage all of the world's high court judges will be wearing Vaisnava tilak. In every town, village, city, and hamlet throughout the world everyone will be peaceful, prosperous, and happy. Everywhere people will be lovingly dancing and singing the holy names of God in great jubilation and feasting on sumptuous, nutritious, delicious Krishna prasadam (foodstuffs offered with love and devotion to Lord Sri Krishna.)The cows will graze peacefully in abundant pastures with no fear of being slaughtered and will be giving profuse supplies of milk both to nourish their calves and the human society with first class organic milk. The marriages will so be peaceful and happy that no one will even think about divorce. Humans and animals as well with live long, healthy, joyful lives.

The more we purely chant the Hare Krishna mantra with love and devotion, the sooner that most glorious day will bless this troubled planet. Purely means chanting for the pleasure of Lord Sri Krishna begging Him to engage us and the whole world in pure devotional service.

How I Came to Krishna Consciousness

Answers According to Vedic Wisdom

Question: What Happens If I Commit Suicide?

I am very sick and I am tired of being sick. I feel that I am becoming completely paralyzed. So I am thinking to commit suicide. What happens if I commit suicide?

Thank you,
Catalina

Answer: You Become a Ghost

From: ISKCON Austin, Texas USA

My Dear Catalina,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I am sorry to hear that you chronically ill and you hope that you will get better son.

Do not commit suicide. If you commit suicide you will become a ghost and live a horrible hellish existence for a long, long time.

To get relief from your anxiety chant these names as much as possible every day:

Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare

हरे कृष्ण हरे कृष्ण कृष्ण कृष्ण हरे हरे ||
हरे राम हरे राम राम राम हरे हरे||

I hope this meets you in the best of healthand 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
