We Are Crying In The Wilderness._17 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." We Are Crying in the Wilderness If the world's leaders will not need our message this planet is doomed. In this regard here is the news release I just posted on x.com : The current conflict between Iran and Israel could easily lead to a nuclear war which could escalate into a vast global tit for tat of all the world's nuclear powers, bringing about the total destruction of the modern day global civilization, turning the entire planet earth into an uninhabitable nuclear wasteland. I have been blessed with the knowledge that can bring about a 10,000 years era of unparalleled peace and prosperity on this planet. The problem is that our world leaders are not willing to listen to me. Thus I simply remain here crying in the wilderness dreading what is soon going to happen to our planet.

This Is Our Mission._16 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." This Is Our Mission In a conversation between Vishnujana Swami and Srila Prabhupada on 20 June 1975 in Los Angeles here is what was said: Viṣṇujana: Śrīla Prabhupāda, what did Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura mean when he said, "I am going, my work unfinished"? Prabhupāda: Hmm? Viṣṇujana: When Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura stated that he was leaving this planet with his work unfinished. Prabhupāda: Then let us finish. We are descendant of Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura. So he kept unfinished so that we shall get the chance to finish it. That is his mercy. He could have finished immediately. He is Vaiṣṇava; he is all-powerful. But he gave us chance that "You foolish people, you all also work." That is his mercy. So we should pray to Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura that "We are your grandchildren, great-grandchildren, so we have got some right to beg...

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." WARNING: Do Not Read This! Today we are arriving at that place which is most dangerous for those who want to continue trying to enjoy this material world. We are arriving in Sri Vrindavan Dham, that place where Lord Sri Krishna is still standing on the bank of Yamuna river near the Keshi Ghat playing His flute in the beautiful moonlit night. He can be seen in this pastime by those whose eyes are decorated with the ointment of love of God. Regarding this pastime One gopi has advised another gopi: smerān bhaṅgī-traya-paricitāṁ sāci-vistīrṇa-dṛṣṭiṁ vaṁśīnyastādhara-kiśalayām ujjvalāṁ candrakeṇa govindākhyāṁ haritanumitaḥ keśi-tīrthopakaṇṭhe mā prekṣiṣṭhāstava yadi sakhe! bandhu-saṅge 'sti raṅgaḥ "My dear friend, there is one boy.

On The Road for Krishna._14 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." We See So Many Amazing Things On the Road for Krishna We see a country where millions of people will vote to elect a shockingly blatant liar and cheater to run their country. We see a country which is so low class that there is a warning sign in a grocery store parking lot that one should not urinate in the parking lot. It is hard to imagine to what level the human race was now fallen down to. They have become lower than the animals. Even though they are called dvipada-paśus, two legged animals and when they get old and are walking with a cane are called tripada-paśus, three legged animals, the sad reality is that they have now become lower than animals. This is because the animals are acting exactly as they are supposed to act according to nature's laws. But since human beings are meant by nature to cultivate God realizatio...

Become fearless._13 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." How to Become Fearless In this world where there is danger at every step those who take shelter of Lord Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, are totally free from fear. In this connection Srila Prabhupada writes as follows in The Teachings of Queen Kunti: We may have many enemies who may be very powerful fighters, but if we remain under the protection of Kṛṣṇa, no one can do us any harm. Rakhe kṛṣṇa māre ke māre kṛṣṇa rakhe ke. "He whom Kṛṣṇa protects, no one can kill, but if Kṛṣṇa wants to kill someone, no one can give him protection." For example, suppose a very rich man is suffering from disease. He may have a first-class physician, medicine, and hospital available for him, but still he may die. This means that Kṛṣṇa desired, "This man must die." Therefore, the so-called protective methods we have...

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Heading Back to Vrindavana Now after a brief two nights stopover in South Africa we are heading back to Sri Vrindavan Dhama, our real home here n this material world. Since Srila Prabhupada said that Vrindavan is his home, we, as his children and grand children also accept Vrindavan as our home. Here in this sacred place 5,000 years ago Lord Sri Krishna displayed a sample of His pastimes in the spiritual world. This is where Srila Prabhupada before coming to American and starting ISKCON.

In what mood does a devotee pray to the Lord? _10 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Image
Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." In What Mood Does a Devotee Pray to Lord? Srila Prabhupada answers this question as follows in his purport to Srimad Bhagavatam, Fourth Canto, Chapter 20, Text 34; "When a devotee prays to the Lord, it is not to ask for material benefits but to ask the Lord for His favor; he prays that he may be engaged in the service of the Lord's lotus feet birth after birth. Lord Caitanya therefore uses the words mama janmani janmani, which mean "birth after birth," because a devotee is not even interested in stopping the repetition of birth. The Lord and the devotee appear in this material world birth after birth, but such births are transcendental. In the Fourth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā the Lord informed Arjuna that both He and Arjuna had undergone many, many births previously, but the Lord remembered everything about them wh...

Here's a most wonderful Srimad Bhagavatam verse. _9 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." A Most Wonderful Srimad Bhagavatam Verse Here's the verse I spoke from (SB 4.20.33) on 8 October 2024 in Mauritius. It is so wonderful that I just to share it with you all, tat tvaṁ kuru mayādiṣṭam apramattaḥ prajāpate mad-ādeśa-karo lokaḥ sarvatrāpnoti śobhanam "My dear King, O protector of the citizens, henceforward be very careful to execute My orders and not be misled by anything. Anyone who lives in that way, simply carrying out My orders faithfully, will always find good fortune all over the world." In this material world at every step we experience good fortune or bad fortune. But for one who is fully absorbed in devotional service to Lord Sri Krishna at every moment he experiences unlimited good fortune. Therefore let us do the intelligent thing of always being fully absorbed in Krishna consciousness. Sankars...

We should not cheat ourselves. _8 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Image
Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." We Should Not Cheat Ourselves We can be enjoying a life of unlimited bliss, but if we serve what our mind and senses crave by doing what titillates them instead of doing what we know is best for us we are embracing trouble. We are cheating ourselves. So instead of serving our minds and senses let us follow what Lord Krishna and the great sages advise us to do. This will guarantee our liberation from the cycle of birth and death. It will clear our pathway back to our original home in the spiritual sky, where no one ever dies.

Our modern day civilization is doomed. _7 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Image
Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Our Modern Day Civilization is Doomed Flying from Johannesburg, South Africa to Mauritius on 5 October 2024 it was very disturbing for me to notice the video that the passenger across the aisle from me was watching. It showed repeatedly scenes of one human being brutally tortured by another human being. This is what many people nowadays pay money to enjoy watching. This a clear indication that our modern day society is on the verge of total collapse. All the modern facilities that we are now enjoying are there because of our previous pious activities. But now due to an enormous increase of sinfulness, such as cow killing and baby killing, these facilities will be taken away and our modern day civilization will completely collapse. The Hare Krishna movement is the only hope for preventing the complete destruction of the modern day w...

Krishna's love is unlimited. _6 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Krishna's Love is Unlimited Take advantage of Krishna's unlimited love by following His instructions that He gives in the Bhagavad-gita and your life will be unlimitedly sublime.

Is Srila Prabhupada ISKCON's only guru?_5 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Is Srila Prabhupada ISKCON's Only Guru? Fools and rascals are making the bogus claim that Srila Prabhupada is ISKCON's only guru and that everyone who is now becoming initiated are becoming Srila Prabhupada's direct disciples. But we need to understand things not according to mental speculation. We need to understand things according to Srila Prabhupada's instructions. Here's what Srila Prabhupada said in this connection: On 28 May 1977 the members of ISKCON's Governing Body Commission (GBC) met with Srila Prabhupada in Vrindavan to inquire about this issue. They asked Srila Prabhupada what is the situation when a disciple of Srila Prabhupada gives initiation to a new devotee. Does the person they are giving initiation to become a disciple of Srila Prabhupada? Or do they become a disciple of the person who ...

Do not be fooled by the Lord's illusory energy._4 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Image
Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." Do Not Be Fooled by the Lord's Illusory Energy Lord Sri Krishna states in Bhagavad-gita 7.14: daivī hy eṣā guṇa-mayī mama māyā duratyayā mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te "This divine energy of Mine, consisting of the three modes of material nature, is difficult to overcome. But those who have surrendered unto Me can easily cross beyond it." Thus the simple way to avoid being fooled by the Lord's illusory energy (which is divine because it comes from Him) is to surrender to Him under the guidance of the bonafide spiritual master. We have to be intelligent enough to understand that this is what we must do in order to be happy.

New Madhuvan is off-the-grid._2 Oct 2024 (C.E. 538)

Thought For the Day The Ultimate Self Realization Course "Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience." New Madhuvan is Off-the-Grid I am writing this on 1 October 2024 from New Madhuvan, Bulgaria. I am very impressed that New Madhuvan is sel-sufficient. It is off-the-grid. The government of Bulgaria can completely collapse but New Madhuvan can continue with no interruption. The devotees here are getting their water from their own well. And they are getting their electricity from their own solar power. They have sufficient cows to provide them with ample milk and wonderful milk products. And they are growing many varieties of foods. The foundation is their regular daily worship of Sri Sri Gaura Nitai beginning with Mangala arati every morning at 5am. Their project is named after the Madhuvan forest, which is part of Krishna's pastimes as described in this Srimad Bhagavatam verse: "My dear boy, I therefore wish all good for...
