Vaishnavas Desire to Deliver the World

The Vaishnavas, the devotees of the Supreme Lord, fully embrace Lord Caitanya's world deliverance mission accepting it as their very life and soul. Their hearts are full of anxiety for the deliverance of all living entities from the so-called enjoyment of this material world, which is nothing more than disguised misery. They are always anxious to give all the bewildered materialists the real happiness of spiritual bliss. They do not want to be liberated alone leaving the fools and rascals stuck in the cycle of birth and death. They know that unless the people of this world take shelter of Krishna's lotus feet they cannot be happy. Therefore they desire to bring all the fallen souls of this material world back to Krishna, even if they have to take birth after birth to do so. Spiritual world or material world does not matter to the Lord's devotees because having taken complete shelter of the lotus feet of Krishna they always feel happy and protected in any and all situations. The devotees personally have no problems. Their only problem is how to deliver all the fallen souls of this material world back to their original home in the spiritual world. Thus the devotees are very, very dear to Lord Sri Krishna.

Question: Why God is Cruel to My Dad?

Can you please answer my question which has been bothering me. My father is 89. He is a well-known writer, a very selfless character. He has helped many people in many ways. Now he has been diagnosed with throat cancer. Many people who are very selfish and arrogant are leading a healthy life. Why God is very partial and cruel towards my dad?

Please answer.

Answer: God is Fair and Also Very Kind

From: ISKCON Riga, Latvia

My Dear Anuradha,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

God is not cruel to anyone. Everyone is getting exactly what they have earned according to their karma accumulated in this lifetime and in previous lifetimes. Karma means the reactions from their previous pious and impious activities.

God is so kind that He takes away the karma of all those who fully surrender unto Him. This is what He teaches us in the Bhagavad-gita.

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
