Turn On Your Soul (song lyrics)

Do you know who you really are?

Do you know where you’re coming from?

Do you know for sure where you’re goin’

Or what you will become?


Chorus:

You’re eternal, full of knowledge and bliss

So remember and celebrate this

You’re not of this world, dear friend

Better tune in and turn on your soul.


Do you know what happens when you die?

Do you know what’s beyond the sky?

Do you think that body is you?

It’s just something that you’re passing through.


Repeat Chorus


We’re told that everything happens by chance.

That the universe has no person in control.

But I see that every machine has got an operator.

So the universe also has one

This I know


Do you know who you really are?

Do you know where you’re coming from?

Do you know for sure where you’re goin’

Or what you will become?


Repeat Chorus

Answers According to Vedic Wisdom

Question: Is Truth Krishna?


Your Divine Grace,

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet. I am hoping you can answer a question for me. Is Truth something that exists separately from the Lord, or is Truth the Lord Himself, and thus eternally self existing? Here I'm not speaking only of transcendental truths, but the truths of the material world- the laws of nature.

Your Servant,
Jack

Answer: Krishna is the Absolute Truth

From: ISKCON Austin, Texas USA

My Dear Jack,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

The very first verse of the Srimad Bhagavatam begins like this:

"O my Lord, Sri Krishna, son of Vasudeva, O all-pervading Personality of Godhead, I offer my respectful obeisances unto You. I meditate upon Lord Sri Krishna because He is the Absolute Truth and the primeval cause of all causes of the creation, sustenance and destruction of the manifested universes."

In other words, the laws of material world are also a manifestation of the Absolute Truth, Lord Sri Krishna.

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
