The Glories of Talking About Krishna

Lord Sri Krishna states in Bhagavad-gita, Chapter 10, Verse 9 as follows:

mac-cittā mad-gata-prāṇā
bodhayantaḥ parasparam
kathayantaś ca māṁ nityaṁ
tuṣyanti ca ramanti ca

"The thoughts of My pure devotees dwell in Me, their lives are fully devoted to My service, and they derive great satisfaction and bliss from always enlightening one another and conversing about Me."

So this is the great pleasure pastimes of Krishna's devotees. They find so much bliss and satisfaction simply in talking about Krishna that they lose their taste for all sorts of material entertainments such as movies, amusement parks, and computer games.

Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom

Question: Why Pure Devotees Suffer?

I want to ask regarding to the description in the Nectar of Devotion that one suffers in his life due to sin of previous life karma. Many pure devotees of the Lord also suffer a lot due to diseases, just as Srila Prabhupada also has suffered many times due to diseases. Why did it happened to him although he was a pure devotee? Please clarify me, Guru Maharaja.

Answer: Nature of the Material World

From: Toronto, Canada

My Dear Rishabh Gupta,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

All material bodies, even the material bodies of pure devotees, get sick, old, and die. That is the nature of this material world.

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
