ISKCON News Has Reviewed My Memoir

5 May 2025

Those of you who have recently subscribed to our e-course may not be aware of my recently published memoir, The Divine Love Memoir. It has over 100 5-Star reviews on Amazon and it has been nicely reviewed on the ISKCON News website. Here is tht first paragraph of the review:

In his book The Divine Love Memoir: How I Discovered the Most Secret of All Secrets, Sankarshan Das vividly recounts his spiritual journey from a young all-American boy to an insightful and questioning teen to a skillful song crafter and beyond. Sankarshan Das elucidates not just what he did and where he did it but the deep emotional, psychological, and cultural implications of a young man trying to find his way in the late 1960s. What begins as a longing for spiritual revolution culminates in a world unimaginably wonderful: the Hare Krishna movement in its blossoming stage, full of transcendental wonder and delight.

How to conquer over lust?

Answer

Although it seems very hard to conquer over lust it is actually not that difficult. It is simply the upside down reflection of our original pristine state of pure consiousnesss, love of God. If we are standing before a body of water and we look at a tree on the other side of the water its reflection looks upside down. So lust simply means that we are seeing things upside down. Buty, if we hear submissively from the bonafide spiritual master we can understand that we are foolishly taking the upside down reflection as reality when the factual reality is the original object not its not its upside down reflection.

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 ...

Image
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. Despite the myths, there are actually no physically harmful side effects of masturbation." They are wrong. To get a proper understanding on this this topic read the question and answer section below. Answers According to the Vedic Wisdom Question: What are the Ill Effects of Masturbation? Since you answered questions related to understanding the real need of sex in a human being's life, so I also request you to please enlighten us with the knowledge about semen conservation, it's importance, and the consequences of frequently releasing it thorough sex or masturbation.
