Do Not Flush Your Future Down the Drain

To act whimsically in service to our minds and senses is suicidal. It guarantees our going down to the animal kingdom in our next births. Therefore the only intelligent and the indeed the only sane thing to do is to engage our senses in the service of the master of the senses, Hrishikesha (Krishna.). This is why it is stated as follows in the Nārada-pañcarātra:

sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ
tat-paratvena nirmalam
hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-
sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate

“Bhakti, or devotional service, means engaging all our senses in the service of the Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the master of all the senses. When the spirit soul renders service unto the Supreme, there are two side effects. One is freed from all material designations, and one’s senses are purified simply by being employed in the service of the Lord."

So my dear readers, please do not flush your future down the train. Make your future glorious by engaging yourself fully in Krishna's service, thus guaranteeing that you will go back to home, back to Godhead upon leaving your present material body.

Comment: Jesus and Krishna Similarities

Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I recently came across a video where many biblical references came across as starkly similar to references to Vaikuntha, Vrindavana, Svarga and Maya. I'm sure you must be aware about most of this already, but it was interesting to observe many similarities in the Bible regarding the destination after this body, which has been misinterpreted typically by speculative Christian scholars.

Reply: Jesus is a Bonafide Vaisnava Acharya

My Dear Suresh,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

It doesn't surprise me at all because Jesus Christ is bona fide Vaisnava Acharya. In fact it was the example of Lord Jesus Christ that inspired me to become a devotee of Krishna. Jesus Christ is our spiritual master. That is a fact. We follow him strictly but the so-called Christians do not. He taught us that we should not kill, but these rascal so-called Christians are meat eaters.

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

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.
