The Real March 6 Broadcast

The bad news is that somehow or other yesterday's broadcast was faulty. It was labeled as March 6 even though it was for March 5. The good news is that it was written in glorification of Lord Sri Krishna. Therefore even though there was a mistake because it was in glorification of Lord Sri Krishna it was still nonetheless glorious as confirmed by this wonderful following verse from the Srimad Bhagavatam:

tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavo
yasmin prati-ślokam abaddhavaty api
nāmāny anantasya yaśo 'ṅkitāni yat
śṛṇvanti gāyanti gṛṇanti sādhavaḥ

"That literature which is full of descriptions of the transcendental glories of the name, fame, forms, pastimes, etc., of the unlimited Supreme Lord is a different creation, full of transcendental words directed toward bringing about a revolution in the impious lives of this world's misdirected civilization. Such transcendental literatures, even though imperfectly composed, are heard, sung and accepted by purified men who are thoroughly honest."---Srimad Bhagavatam, 1st Canto, Chapter 5, Text 11

Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom

Question: How Did Srila Prabhupada Leave this World?

My dear Srila Gurudeva,
Please accept my humble obeisances.

How did Srila Prabhupada leave this world? People say stupid things that he was poisoned. How did you feel on the day when he left his body?

Your servant
Mahima Gupta

Answer: He Departed Due to Natural Causes

From: ISKCON Austin, Texas USA

My Dear Mahima,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Srila Prabhupada passed from this world due to natural causes in the association of his loving disciples who were trying to do everything they could to save him. He was NOT poisoned. The real poison is coming from those who are spreading the false rumor that Srila Prabhupada was poisoned.

The false poison rumor has been thoroughly defeated in this video: https://youtu.be/vA-CzGs8XfA

It was a great pain of separation for me the day that he left, and I am still feeling the pain of his separation. Although he is physically separated from me, he is still very much with me at every moment guiding me and blessing me by his divine association and instructions.

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

Misguided Fools Say that Masturbation is Healthy

Foolish modern day materialists recommend masturbation as follows: "Masturbation is a common activity. It’s a natural and safe way to explore your body, feel pleasure, and release built-up sexual tension. It occurs among people of all backgrounds, genders, and races.
