Here is Why You Exist

Krishna is eternally emanating you from Himself for the sole purpose of enjoying an unlimitedly sweet loving relationship with you. Just as a fish is meant to be in the water, you are meant, by your very nature, to having an intimate loving relationship with Krishna. If you withhold yourself from this you are like a fish out the water.

Questions and Answers

Hare Krishna,
If one has had sex with many women before marriage then how to forget these moments of sexual pleasure when these thoughts overwhelm the mind?
I am not now having sex with any girl or woman but sometimes I watch porn. I am feeling a very strong urge for sex. How can I become free from this desire?
Please reply

Answer

From: Mauritius

My Dear Struggling Devotee,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Do not watch porn!

There is great devotee who formerly was a king enjoying sex with many women. Because of this he would sometimes remember his previous experiences of sexual intercourse. Here’s a verse he composed and would practice to liberate himself from a being a slave of his genitals:

yad-avadhi mama cetaḥ kṛṣṇa-pādāravinde
nava-nava-rasa-dhāmany udyataṁ rantum āsīt
tad-avadhi bata nārī-saṅgame smaryamāne
bhavati mukha-vikāraḥ suṣṭhu niṣṭhīvanaṁ ca

"Since my mind has been engaged in the service of the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa and I have been enjoying ever-new transcendental pleasure in that service, whenever I think of sex with a woman my face at once turns from it, and I spit at the thought.”

Memorize the verse in English and Sanskrit. Whenever your mind becomes attract to sexual thoughts recite this verse again and again and then chant Hare Krishna.

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 ...
