We Wanted to Upstage Krishna

Thought for Day--13 April 2026

We fell into this material world because we desired to upstage Krishna—to steal the spotlight from Him. Krishna is the Supreme All-Attractive Personality of Godhead, the cynosure of all eyes, the most enchanting of all persons, upon whom all beings gaze in wonder and love. But we became envious. We longed to stand in that place—to be seen, to be adored, to be the center.

And so, to accommodate our misguided desire, He has given us this material world—a stage upon which we may imagine ourselves to be the center of all existence. Yet, in His boundless mercy, He has also provided the path by which we may return to our true home in His eternal, blissful abode of Goloka Vrindavan.

That path is Krishna consciousness—the very process the Lord Himself so mercifully reveals in the Bhagavad-gītā as it is.

Hare Krishna, dear Guru Maharaj,
Dandavat pranam.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada, to you, and to Srimati Guru Mataji.

A) Krishna is accepted as the Supreme Personality of Godhead by such authoritative personalities as Vyāsa, Devala, Asita, Nārada, Madhva, Śaṅkara, Rāmānuja, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Jīva Gosvāmī, Viśvanātha Cakravartī, Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī, and all other authorities in the disciplic succession.


The above statement is given in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. If someone asks me who made Vyāsa, Asita, Devala, and others authorities to accept Krishna as Supreme, how should I answer?

B) In Bhagavad-gītā 2.12, it is stated that there was never a time when the Lord and the living entities did not exist. However, it is also said that the Lord expanded into many souls to have loving relationships. This seems to imply that before the Lord expanded, we did not exist. How should we understand that both the Lord and the living entities exist eternally?

Please guide me.

Your insignificant servant,
Gaurav

My Dear Gaurav,

Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

One becomes a sage full surrender to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Krishna is eternally expanding from Himself all living beings.

I hope this meets you in the best of health and in a cheerful mood.

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 ...

Misguided Fools Say that Masturbation is Healthy

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. Since today most of the youth are indulged in mansturbation and they think it to be good in comparison to doing sex with some female for ...
