Don't Be Crazy in an Insane World

In a world where everyone is insane due to bodily misidentification it is indeed quite a challenge not to be crazy like everyone else. This is why it is essential to take shelter of the association of devotees. The shelter began in the Western world when Srila Prabhupada gave shelter to his first disciples in New York City in 1966. And then they gave shelter to others who gave shelter to others, etc. etc. In this way the Krishna consciousness movement has spread all over the world and will continue spreading until the whole world has becomes filled up with devotees as predicted in the Brahma-vaivarta Purana 4.129.59:

kaler dasa-sahasrāni
madbhaktāh samti bhu-tale
ekavarnā bhavisyamti
madbhakteṣu gatesu ca

"For `10,000 years of Kali such devotees of Mine will fill the whole planet. After the departure of My devotees there will be only one varna [outcaste]."

Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom

Question: Vaikuntha?

What do you know about Vaikuntha?

Krunal Darji

Answer: The World Where There is No Anxiety

My Dear Krunal,
Please accept my blessings.

The word “Vaikuntha” means “without anxiety.” It is a name for the spiritual world, that place where all material miseries (namely birth, death, old age, and disease) are conspicuous by their absence. At the beginning of our universe Lord Brahma, the chief demigod of our universe, had a vision of the Vaikuntha world and described it as follows:

cintāmaṇi-prakara-sadmasu kalpa-vṛkṣa-
lakṣāvṛteṣu surabhīr abhipālayantam
lakṣmī-sahasra-śata-sambhrama-sevyamānaṁ
govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi


TRANSLATION

“I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, the first progenitor who is tending the cows, yielding all desire, in abodes built with spiritual gems, surrounded by millions of purpose trees, always served with great reverence and affection by hundreds of thousands of lakṣmīs or gopīs.”


By the process of devotional service, full surrender unto Lord Sri Krishna, one qualifies himself to enter the Vaikuntha world upon leaving his present material body, and he will never take birth again in this miserable material world.


I hope that you are now qualifying yourself to enter the Vaikuntha world as soon as possible.

Hoping this meets you.

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
