ISKCON Melbourne, AU: Daily Class - Yamuna-lila MatajiSrimad Bhagavatam 11.21.32 - The Supreme Lord and the source of all demigods is Krsna. Japa Group: You Chant Your Japain a routine way, keeping the pace, keeping alert, pronouncing the names. I did not weir off the road or break down to a stand still. My motor ran smoothly with no warning lights on the dash port. At this rounds I’ll have sixteen done in short order unless I grow weary, asleep. So far, so good, we are counting off routine with a prayer underneath. From Bhajan Kutir #476
Srila Prabhupada's Letters1966 June 24: Srila Prabhupada's Letters1968 June 24: "Since the temple is started, the temple cannot be closed on any day. In no case, even in the most urgent case, the temple cannot be closed even for a single day. This is the serious business of opening a center." Srila Prabhupada's Letters1969 June 24: "One who can show the whole cosmic manifestation within the hole of His mouth, what service can we render unto Him? Krishna does not require anyone's help but if we serve Him, even in a very small capacity, He will accept. That is our only hope." Srila Prabhupada's Letters1970 June 24: "You are doing very nicely. Krsna is giving you intelligence. So accepting always Krsna as the Supreme advisor and always begging for his mercy, go on with your progressive march - and I am very satisfied with your activities." Srila Prabhupada's Letters1970 June 24: "Speaking depends on practice and study. So read my books carefully especially Nectar of Devotion now published and gather thoughts and practice speaking. It will be alright." Srila Prabhupada's Letters1971 June 24: "My Dear Professor Kotovsky, I have given you one sample chapter of my Srimad-Bhagavatam and there are many hundreds such chapters. I think some of you should translate this great book into Russian. I am fully prepared to cooperate with you." Srila Prabhupada's Letters1972 June 24: "One should cut the coat according to the pocket. So even we cannot afford the proposed temple project, better to go ahead and build something even if it is little cheaper and very simple." Srila Prabhupada's Letters1974 June 24: "I shall have full power and authority to act alone on all matters pertaining to the above mentioned account; whereas the Trustees shall have the same powers only by acting conjointly on all account matters." Devadeva Mirel, Alachua, USA: Apron Front Farm Sink Cabinet Modification PicsSkip right over this post. Go on. It’s not for you. You will find this post boring. Blah. Blah blah blah. But. If you are in the process of installing an apron front farm sink–Shaws, soapstone, stainless, whatever–well, then I know you are loving this. This is your post. You are the reason I snapped these pictures. Modify. Reinforce. Words you know. Words you understand. Words you want hammered to the underside of your sink. But how? What is the best way? What is the neatest least ugly most tidy way to modify those sink base cabs. Well, take a look. Mine were done fabulously. The double base cabs (30″) that hold the almost 500 lb soapstone sink were reinforced along the sides while the white Porcher London fireclay sink had a little shelf built for the back of the sink to rest upon and sides were reinforced. That’s it. H.H. Prahladananda Swami: Intro to Self-Healing – Ayurveda Seminar – Dallas July 11th-11thHis Holiness Prahladananda Swami began his training in Ayurveda in 1987 in India under Dr. Liladhar Gupta and Dr. Sri Krishna Caitanya. In addition to giving instruction on Ayurveda, Jyotish astrology, and Iyengar yoga His Holiness’ true ardor lies with sharing the wisdom of Vedic literature such as the Bhagavad-gita and Srimad Bhagavatam. Over the past twenty years his travels have brought him around the globe, where he has had the opportunity to teach classes on Vedic health and science to audiences in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Russia, Belgium, Spain, and Peru (to name just a few locations). David Haslam, UK: Devotional PerceptionPerception is an interesting thing; Is the cup half full, or half empty? Depending on your perception and view of the world; or even the mood were in. As devotees perception and view says a lot about our own realizations, do we try to understand or do we have the critical mind or as some say the [...] Bharatavarsa.net: Bhakti Vikasa Swami: Indians giving up their cultureWe have given up our own culture and imitating the foreigners and the Western country. That also we cannot do very properly because we are meant for different purpose in India. In India, one who has taken birth in India, it is understood that in his previous birth he tried to cultivate spiritual culture; therefore he has been given the opportunity to take birth in India. India is so fortunate. But as soon as he takes birth, the rascal leader spoils him, the rascal father spoils him, the rascal teacher spoils him. So what can they do, the poor younger generation? They are being taught that "The spiritual culture is useless. Because we are so much spiritually inclined, the foreigners came and they ruled over us. Now give up all this nonsense. Become technologist." This is going on. >>> Ref.

Bharatavarsa.net: Book distribution seminar: what is required to please KrsnaIn class Prabhupada explained what is required of us if we want to please Krsna and get His blessings. "We have to surrender. That will please Krsna. And without pleasing Him? You cannot see Krsna. You may have your eyes, big, big eyes, but you cannot see Krsna. You have to please Him. That pleasing activity is bhakti. "Without that bhakti, it means sitting down silently... 'No, no, I am chanting. I do not want to go out. I am busy.' This means excuse. What you will chant? You will think of money and woman, that's all. Just work. Go to sell books and work hard. That is wanted. Therefore we do not give that opportunity. My Guru Maharaja did not give this opportunity, and we are following the same principle. No opportunity of sitting idle. No, you must work. That will rectify. Yes." >From Transcendental Diary Sastra Dana, San Diego, USA: Fifth issue of the 16Rounds publicationSastra Dana’s publication, 16Rounds to Samadhi, is one of the very few printed materials produced to reach out to the non-devotee audiences.

Made Mee Goreng last night, and it looked so good that I just had to take a photo, for posterity. And yes, it definitely is vegetarian. The recipe is in Great Vegetarian Dishes, my first cookbook, that is now enjoying its 20th year in print. Happy birthday GVD! H.H. Satsvarupa das Goswami: 4773:55 A.M. I slept all right and got out of bed at 1:30. My first eight rounds were good, attentive and not distracted onto other things. But after eight rounds I got a migraine headache with a pain in my right eye. My next four rounds were like a crippled spider, and I was too much involved with the pain to give good prayerful attention to the japa. H.H. Satsvarupa das Goswami: A MeetingPrabhupada SmaranamIt is fun doing detective work with a photograph of Prabhupada in which I am not sure of the circumstances. Is this man in a business suit a guest in Prabhupada’s room in a temple, or has Prabhupada come out to visit him in his place (or a neutral place)? There are some details that suggest it is not Prabhupada’s room. Over the man’s head is a picture we can only partially make out, but it clearly shows an animal like a dog walking forward on three legs, and his snout is visible. Prabhupada would not have a picture like this in his room. Srila Prabhupada is wearing shoes. He never kept his shoes on when he was in his room. He is also sitting on a chair lower than the man’s chair, but not as he usually does in his room, seated on a pillow behind a low desk. However, a woman in a sari is adjusting a vase of flowers, which seems contradictory to an outside visit. The other elements are neutral: Prabhupada and several disciples with him, Syamasundara and Pradyumna, and microphones are present. Whether Prabhupada is visiting or being visited, it doesn’t matter much. The man has properly been selected as a person to talk to because of his professional or personal interest in Krishna consciousness or Indian philosophy. Maybe he is a professor. Prabhupada has his head turned alertly to the man, and he is looking at his face. The important thing is what they are talking about. Prabhupada may have already mentioned Bhagavad-gita, the world authority on the nature of the soul. Arjuna did not want to fight because he had a material concept of the self. He thought the self could die. But Krishna informed him, “Never was there a time when you nor I nor all these kings of men did not exist, and never will there be time in the future when they will cease to be.” Only the body dies, but the real self, the atma, continues to exist and transmigrates to another body. The body he takes in his next life is determined by his karma (action) in this life. “Whatever you think of at the time of your death, you take another body like that.” Therefore you should always practice thinking of Krishna. The best and easiest way to think of Krishna in the age of Kali is to chant the holy names, Hare Krishna. “Excuse me Swami, but I have to go now. I have an afternoon appointment.” Later: “When we spoke of life after death he did not seem so interested. This means he is not intelligent. He is a teacher, but he is a mudha.” H.H. Satsvarupa das Goswami: Random Lines1. He will decide. He will speak H.H. Satsvarupa das Goswami: Free WritePonds or lakes with surrounding forests, in summertime … What is the place of humans here? They could fish or swim or go boating, but the places are quite complete without the intrusion of people. “This is the forest primeval.” Every summer the trees grow lush with leaves and fish and birds multiplying. Wild life roams the forest. The city is in the mode of passion, and the forest is in the mode of goodness. But the temple or a place of worship of God is transcendental even to the pristine material mode of goodness in the forest. Aborigines, “Indians,” or “savages” lived in forests and jungles with little material, industrial development or culture. They followed religions based on nature worship and sometimes offered sacrifices to primitive concepts of gods of the elements, such as the Sun, Moon, thunder, rain etc. Sometimes different tribes quarreled and went to war with one another. Other tribes lived more peacefully and developed agriculture and arts and crafts.

Sivarama Swami: What is the difference between Ajamila’s once chanting and our constant chanting?Why don’t we get the same result. (Jun 17, 2010) Mayapur Online: Panihati Cida Dahi MahotsavaWith great happiness, the most sweet pastime of Lord Nityananda ordering Srila Raghuantha dasa Goswami to feed His associates with Yoghurt & Chipped rice, celebrated as Cida-Dahi Mahotsav is being celebrated in Sri Mayapur dhama today. This is a very special festival, the essence of which is that only by the blessings of devotees, one will receive the mercy of Lord. HG Jananivasa Prabhu read the narration of this pastime from Caitanya Caritamrita in the morning Srimad Bhagavatham class. Listen here HG Jananivasa Prabhu’s class Maddy Jean-claude Durr, New Govardhana, AU: Original Aussie Journey: Day 5Monday 24th, December 2007. I awoke and found a yajna going on in the courtyard. There was a heavy film of white smoke drifting in the air and a strong smell of burning ghee, combined with other substances. HH Indradyumna Swami was initiating two Indian couples from the congregation. I had danced ecstatically in kirtana with one of the Prabhus and had since made good friends with him. He thanked me for being present on his initiation and I thanked Krsna for waking me up on time so it appeared that I made it there in good timing. I received a call from Ajita, confirming that someone had replaced me in Woodford catering. He encouraged me and wished me all the best on my endeavours with Indradyumna Swami. I was so grateful that he allowed me to go for this opportunity and was happy with his easy, enthusing attitude over the whole ordeal. There was still one silly problem left to sort out, which was that I didn’t know if I could actually travel with HH Indradyumna Swami. I talked with my parents on the phone about the whole situation. It was vague what actions I should take. I simply had to go with what Krsna was arranging, which for now was uncertain. All I could do was be patient. I tried to chant in Prabhupada’s room again but found it was locked. The room seemed to be my mercy hub and I was attracted to visit it at any free moment, especially if I had some rounds to chant. I was hoping to chant there to so I would be easily available to any news of the Troupe. Dominik Prabhu seemed to have vanished; I couldn’t find him anywhere. The decision of me staying or going now seemed to be in his hands. I served the devotees their lunch again. I still wasn’t receiving any signs if I was coming with them or not. I needed to know soon. My flight was soon to depart and I didn’t know which direction I was to take. I stumbled up to Prabhupada’s room again and found Dominik just outside the entrance. I asked him if they had made up their minds yet about me coming along. Just as I was speaking to Dominik, HH Indradyumna Swami excited from Prabhupada’s room and was walking towards us. Dominik turned to Maharaja and said “this young man wants to join us on the tour.” “Is that so” said Maharaja, looking towards me. I don’t know what tiny thing I added in but Maharaja simply looked me down, paused for a moment and then gave his approval. That was it; I was in the troupe! Dominik told me that I would be driving up in a few days with Santi Prabhu, while the majority of the troupe was flying up. I had never considered that they would be flying so I was lucky that Krsna had arranged in this genius plan a way for me to travel to Sydney. It was now too late to book plane tickets now. Indeed they had been looking for someone to drive with Santi Prabhu because the drive was dangerous alone. Luckily this had all happened because I had focused so much on trying to join the troupe that it was already too late to catch my flight back home. Yet again Krsna made some masterful plans to go on an unforgettable journey. [http://maddmonk.wordpress.com] Yoga of Ecology, Bhakta Chris, USA: Tastes Like Chicken: The Quest For Fake Meat

H.H. Bhaktimarg Swami: Wednesday, June 16th, 2010Speed and Space
Japa Group: Make The Japa A Holy TimeYou have to concentrate and be very serious if you want your chanting to be more than just sweeping with a broom. You have to remember your place in this material world, remember that you’re a spirit soul seeking to retain your original conscious ness. This kind of concentration is required in order to make the japa a holy time. Entering a life of prayer you have to crawl humbly and plead with Krishna to please let you remain fixed on the actual business of japa. Otherwise it becomes a mechanical duty which is alright but not topmost. From Bhajan Kutir #474 H.H.
