Why Do We Exist?

The scientists tell us that we exist as the result of an explosion 13.8 billion years ago. They call it the Big Bang. But since when has anything nicely organized and structured come out of an explosion? This is not real science. This is dogma. The real reason we exist is that the Supreme Person desiring to expand His enjoyment unlimitedly is expanding from Himself an unlimited number of living beings for the purpose of enjoying an intimate loving relationship with each and every one of them. Because love is voluntary, it cannot be forced, we have the free choice to love Him or leave Him. The vast majority of living beings never leave Him. They remain with Him eternally, serving Him with love in HIs transcendental abode. An infinitesimal fraction of the living beings make the mistake of trying to enjoy separately from Him, but after realizing their mistake are gradually rectified to come back to their original liberation position in His transcendental association.

Answers According to Vedic Wisdom

Question: How is Krishna Emanating Us?

Dear Guru,

How is Krishna emanating us eternally? There definitely must be a time when that emanation would happen.

Then would this be true that Krishna is emanating me right now as well?

Shreyansh Barodia

Answer: Like the Sun and Sun Rays

From: Melbourne, Australia

My Dear Shreyansh,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

That emanation has always been going on for all of eternity and is also happening right now. Krishna is like the sun, and we are like the sun rays.

The reason we exist is that Lord Sri Krishna is eternally emanating us from Himself for the purpose of enjoying an intimate loving relationship with each and every one of us.

In this regard Krishna states in the Bhagavad-gita, Chapter 10, Text 8 as follows:

ORIGINAL SANSKRIT:
ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo
mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate
iti matvā bhajante māṁ
budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ

TRANSLATION
"I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything emanates from Me. The wise who perfectly know this engage in My devotional service and worship Me with all their hearts."

I hope this meets you in the best of health and in a super 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

Who is this Krishna?

Image
Krishna is not a myth, nor is He an ordinary historical personality. He is the Supreme All-Attractive Personality of Godhead. He is the oldest of all while simultaneously maintaining the form of a 16 year old youth. He is all-attractive because he exceeds everyone in all of existence by possessing unlimitedly all the qualities that are attractive namely power, beautify, renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame. There is no one who equals or excels Him in the possession of these attractive qualities. This is why is accepted by all enlightened spiritualists as being God, the original source of all existence. The perfection of our existence is to re-establish our long forgotten loving relationships with Him.
