My First Radha and Krishna in 1968

My very first Radha and Krishna are very, very dear to me. It was 1968. I was a young 21 years old spiritual seeker living at 1271 Lafayette Street in Denver, Colorado USA. A friend of mine, named Patrick Dolan, had introduced me to the Hare Krishna mahamantra. I had purchased a magnificently splendorous poster of Sri Sri Radha Krishna (pictured below) at a local gift shop and I had checked out a Bhagavad-gita from the local library. I was amazed to read in the Gita that I could offer Krishna a leaf, a flower, fruit, or water and He would accept it. So before eating I started offering my food (I was a vegetarian) to Krishna. I would come home every evening and sit before my altar, which was set up inside the bay window (pictured below behind the bushes) and chant Hare Krishna in great ecstasy. I felt that Krishna has calling me, and I answered His call. This is how I got to be here today sharing this with you. (More will be told in my upcoming memoir/guidebook.)

Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom

Question: Why the Youth Are Turning Atheist?

Hare Krishna

90% of the youth around the world are turning Into atheists, Gurudeva, why is this so?

Rudra Pise

Answer: They Are Not Using Their Brains

From: ISKCON Austin, Texas USA

My Dear Rudra,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

They are becoming atheists because they are not using their brains. The first step is to show them that atheism is not scientific. It it based on blind faith. We can scientifically prove that everything comes from something and that nothing comes from nothing. We can also scientifically prove that there has to be God, an original cause for everything.

If they want to remain stupid fools, that is their choice. And if they want to be factually intelligent, we will teach them how.

I hope this meets you in the best of health.

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.
