Anxiety as a Public Health Issue

The Harvard Business Review has published on 11 May 2020 an article entitled "Anxiety as a Public Health Issue."hbr.org/2020/05/anxiety-as-a-public-health-issue
Regarding anxiety Srila Prabhupada explains in a lecture given in Mayapur, West Bengal, India on 21 June 1973 as follows:

"If you are in anxiety, then that will create a disease. Our this psychological condition, physiological condition, is working in so subtle way-little shocking, little disturbance will create another disturbance. The Ayurvedic medicine, they treat patients on this principle, how things are disturbed."

There is no doubt that this material world is a place of anxiety. We are being tortured here by birth, death, old age, and disease. In spite of all material attempts to get rid of these four miseries they are still going on with full force. The only actual solution to free from anxiety is to come to the plane of Krishna consciousness. Therefore our goal is to make the whole world Krishna conscious as soon as possible so that everyone can be free from all anxiety.

Answer: You Can Become Most Wealthy and Powerful

From: ISKCON Austin, Texas USA

My Dear Karan,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

You will naturally become peaceful and happy just like a fish being back in the water. You will be inspired to offer your material gain in the service of the Lord. When you do this sincerely He will give you more and more material gain to engage in His service. He can even make you the wealthiest, more powerful person in the whole world if you engage everything in His service.

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.

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

He is the oldest of all while simultaneously maintaining the form of a 16 year old youth. He is all-attractive because he exceeds everyone in all of existence by possessing unlimitedly all the qualities that are attractive namely power, beautify, renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame. There is no one who equals or excels Him in the possession of these attractive qualities. This is why is accepted by all enlightened spiritualists as being God, the original source of all existence. The perfection of our existence is to re-establish our long forgotten loving relationships with Him.
