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. His name is Govinda. He is standing on the bank of Yamunā near the Keśi-ghāṭa, and He's play...

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...

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." 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...

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...
