156 Million Innocent Animals Slaughtered Daily

Yesterday's "Thought for the Day" mentioned 156 animals innocent slaughtered daily. This was a major typo that our editor did not catch before publication. The actual number is 156 million animals are cruelly murdered every day in the world's slaughterhouses. The karma from this horrendous inconceivable volume of sinful activities is making peace and prosperity of the human society an impossibility. It's time now that the world's leaders wake up and realize that we absolutely must stop murdering all of these innocent creatures. Those who want to eat animal flesh should wait until the animals die naturally.

Reply: If You Don't Being Eaten in Your Next Birth

If one is in a desert and there is nothing else to eat except meat, then one can meat for one's survival. But when there is an ample supply of fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and grains it is most sinful to violate the scriptural injunction that is found both in the Bible and in the Vedic scriptures against killing. One who does so in spite of the injunctions will take birth as a animal in his next life to be eaten by the same animals that he ate.

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
