It is written by a real person who truly cares about you Now You Can Play the Ultimate Ball Game December 19, 2025 I remember watching our high school’s football games when I was 16 years old. We used to have a chant to encourage our team, the Westbury Rebels, to win the game. We would chant, “Get that ball! Get that ball!” because whoever controls the ball wins the game. Now we have a similar situation. The big ball—the planet Earth—is currently under the control of demonic influences, making life more and more miserable for its inhabitants. Therefore, we need to get the planet Earth back under the control of saintly people, so that everyone can become peaceful, prosperous, and happy. Even the weather—and a proper balance of rainfall—will manifest on our planet when people aga...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you Krishna Consciousness Solves All Problems December 18, 2025 In this material world we are drowning in an ocean of problems: some small, some big, and some monstrously gargantuan. We foolishly try to solve this myriad of problems in a piecemeal, nit-picking fashion and thus remain utter failures in trying to solve them. But just as when we water the root of the tree all the leaves and branches are nourished, when we put ourselves fully in the hands of the all-merciful Lord Sri Krishna in one stroke all problems are solved automatically. One stroke--finishd. Srila Prabhupada explains it in this way: The goldsmith uses a small hammer and taps the gold many times, but the blacksmith uses a large hammer and with one stroke his...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you Krishna's Pure Devotee Will Deliver the World December 17, 2025 Just see now powerful is the pure chanting of Krishna's holy names as described by Srila Prabhupada in his purport to Sri Caitanya Caritamrita, Adi Lila, Chapter 7, Text 83: A sincere student aurally receives the holy name from the spiritual master, and after being initiated he follows the regulative principles given by the spiritual master. When the holy name is properly served in this way, automatically the spiritual nature of the holy name spreads; in other words, the devotee becomes qualified in offenselessly chanting the holy name. When one is completely fit to chant the holy name in this way, he is eligible to make disciples all over the world, a...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you Don't Be Misled by the Māyāvādīs December 16, 2025 My first exposure to the process of self-realization was from the Māyāvādīs. They told me that I could become happy by following their teachings and that I had to pay some money to learn from them. They teach that the form and personality of God is ultimately an illusion, that the highest truth is impersonal, formless oneness. To them, the person Krishna is a myth, a poetic device to help us merge into to the impersonal oneness. I tried the self-realization technique of various impersonalists and I found them to be impractical. They did not do anything to help me achieve the transcendental bliss that I desired. They say that everything is one, that duality is an illus...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you Faith Can Move Mountains December 15, 2025 It is sometimes said, "Faith can move mountains." We can certainly see the truth of this statement in the life of Srila Prabhupada. Because of his unflinching faith in the order of his spiritual master to preach the message of Krishna in the western countries he was able to launch a spiritual movement with assets of millions of dollars, hundreds of temples, and thousands of devotees, even though he had no followers, no temples, and only 40 Indian rupees. When one becomes a pure devotee of Krishna he automatically attains all mystic powers and than can thus accomplish anything conceivable or inconceivable according to the plan of Krishna, even if it literally means moving...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you The Hare Krishna Mantra Cures Depression December 14, 2025 As a young college student I was very depressed because all I could see of my future was a pathway to death. It was considered taboo by my classmates to even admit that one is depressed because everyone wanted to maintain the illusion that life is fun. I could find no cure for the depression that was eating me alive until one evening in the fall of 1968 in Denver, Colorado, USA a friend named Patrick Dolan introduced me to the Hare Krishna mantra: Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare Ever since then my life has been turned into the most amazing, exciting adventure. So all those people throughout the world...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you How to Be in the Eye of the Hurricane December 13, 2025 Srila Prabhupada describes in The Teachings of Lord Caianya that the devotee feels exclusively dependent on the mercy of the Lord. This means that even if he is in the most trying and difficult situation he has nothing to fear because he knows that whatever Krishna does is alright. Even a mundane songwriter from hippie era in Austin, Texas, Roky Erickson, wrote "Chaos all around me, but the song that keeps me sane." Roky did not know it, but that song is the Hare Krishna kirtan. So whenever you are in great anxiety just chant Hare Krishna. Even if you are in the midst of a devastating Kali yuga storm, if you remember Krishna you will be solidly situated in ...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you It's Very Sad to Leave Vrindavan December 12, 2025 There is nothing sweeter than to be living in that place where Lord Sri Krishna manifested His intimate pastimes 5,000 years ago, where those pastimes are still going on today for those who have to purified vision to see them. How is it possible after one is blessed with some time of residence in the transcendental land of Vrindavan that could leave this realm know as Gokula Vrindavan to live in some other place? In this connection Srila Rupa Goswami has blessed us with the following advice: ...if it is possible one should go and physically be present at Vrajabhūmi, Vṛndāvana, and be engaged always in the service of the Lord, following the devotees in Vraja-dhāma, th...

It is written by a real person who truly cares about you Do You Want to Appreciated? December 11, 2025 In the material world people want to be appreciated but they don't like to appreciate others. But in spiritual life it is just the opposite. The Lord's devotees greatly appreciate the other devotees without caring a fig for their own appreciation. In such a mentality they become unlimitedly appreciated both by Lord Sri Krishna and the other devotees. In this connection Srila Prabhupada writes: Everyone should be friendly for the service of the Lord. Everyone should praise another's service to the Lord and not be proud of his own service. This is the way of Vaiṣṇava thinking, Vaikuṇṭha thinking. There may be rivalries and apparent competition between servants in pe...

Sometimes they are given to me as an offering of love. Following the insructions of Srila Rupa Goswami I accept this offering of love. And then at an opportune time I can give away such gifts also. Srila Prabhupada was also criticized for this. Here is how he responded in conversation with a criticizing guest on 5 August 1971 in London: Guest: Wy do you have gold rings which are very expensive? Prabhupāda: What is that? Dhanañjaya: "Why do you have gold rings?" Prabhupāda: Eh? Dhanañjaya: "Why do you have gold rings?" Prabhupāda: Because you have given me, just ...
