Initiation Ceremony--Klang, Malaysia--19 June 2011


Devotees Remain True to their Vows

When one takes initiation from the bona fide spiritual master he is vowing to accept the spiritual master's orders as his very life and soul and thus to always be fully obedient to his spiritual master. This vow elevates him immediately to transcendental platform beyond the cycle of birth and death and qualifies him to enter the spiritual world upon leaving his present material body. However, a disciple who breaks this vow and does not rectify himself condemns himself to remain caught up in the cycle of repeated birth and death. Such a fallen disciple will be obliged to take birth again and again here in this material world until he can finally rectify himself by becoming fully obedient to guru and Krishna. And the spiritual master remains in the material world for the sake of delivering him.
Therefore when one accepts initiation from the bona fide spiritual master he should be very sober and serious with the fixed determination to never break his initiation vows. Such a fully surrendered disciple is very, very dear to the spiritual master, to the previous acharyas, and to Their Lordships Sri Sri Radha and Krishna.

Answer: For Procreation, Not For Recreation

My Dear Tirth,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

According to Vedic principles sex is only for procreation and not for recreation. Sex should be minimized as much as possible. Sex is only for having devotee children.

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
