The 4th of July--Big National Holiday in the US

Today, the 4th of July, is a big national holiday in the United States. This is the day in 1776 that the British colonists in North America in the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence announcing the colonies' separation from Great Britain. But the American people in spite of their so-called independence are still slaves of the material nature being dragged repeatedly lifetime after lifetime through birth, death, old age, and disease. So they have not really gotten true independence. Real independence comes only when we surrender to Krishna because it is then and only then that we become liberated from birth, death, old age, and disease by regaining our original ever-youthful, deathless forms in the spiritual world.

We, devotees of Krishna, celebrate our independence every day by chaniting "Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare." Please join us in this ultimate celebration.

Question: Why Krishna Made Marijuana?

Hare Krishna,

Why God made marijuana and cannabis and other strong hallucinogenic plants if we are forbidden to experience them? What is their purpose?

Thank you.

Answer: For Those Who Want to Forget Him

From: ISKCON Austin, Texas USA

My Dear Catalina,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

For those who want to remember Krishna He appears in the form of His holy names. And for those who want to forget Him He appears in the form of hallucinogenic drugs.

sarvasya cāhaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭo
mattaḥ smṛtir jṣānam apohanaṁ ca

"I am seated in everyone's heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness."--Bhagavad-gita 15.15

In this way Krishna very kindly facilitates everyone.

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
